Chapter 529: Anything Is Possible

Hidden within the valley lay a magnificent palace.

Madame Meng San hosted a banquet for her guests. Meng Mo Baobao, having received the inherited memories, finally understood his true identity and began addressing Shui Miao as “older brother.”

After the celebration, Madame Meng San led everyone into a secret chamber for discussion.

Once Bu Yi explained their purpose, Madame Meng San immediately offered that the dwarven clan could stay in the Forgotten Soul Valley for now. She suggested that they could leave only after the Heavenly War ended and the order of the Three Realms stabilized.

Shui Miao had already received the Dream Demon Cultivation Technique from Meng Mo Baobao and was now practicing it while multitasking.

As for the Heavenly War, Shui Miao had little interest. He was determined to kill the Supreme Immortal and avenge his grievance as soon as possible.

In fact, with Shui Miao’s current strength, he was already fully capable of confronting the Supreme Immortal openly.

Seeing Shui Miao remained silent, Bu Yi became curious and asked, “Shui Miao, what are you thinking about?”

“Not much. I just placed my dream魂 energy into the formation of the Tian Yuan Ring and am sensing what Luo Tong’s soul is thinking,” Shui Miao replied. As his mind stirred, he discovered that the Dream Demon Cultivation Technique was indeed wondrous. The moment he began practicing, numerous treants within his realm of consciousness started dreaming.

Seeing Shui Miao so diligent in cultivation, Madame Meng San reminded him, “Shui Miao, the Dream Demon Cultivation Technique can be both difficult and easy. The best and most direct method is to capture many ghosts and place them inside magical treasures. When they fall asleep and start dreaming, they will naturally emit dream essence energy. By absorbing that energy, you can quickly grow stronger. Your realm of consciousness already has countless treants; once they learn to dream, they will bring you endless benefits.”

“In fact, they already have.”

Shui Miao’s mind stirred as he began collecting dream soul energy and channeling it into his body. He immediately felt his spiritual power growing stronger.

“I see now! So the Dream Demon Cultivation Technique is also a method for cultivating spiritual power. However, this spiritual power is somewhat mysterious, yet undeniably effective, making my spiritual force increasingly unbreakable and impervious,” Shui Miao felt excited as he sensed his power increasing.

Madame Meng San smiled softly and shook her head. “Shui Miao, you understand only one side, not the other. In reality, these two types of spiritual energy are fundamentally different. Dream魂 energy is extremely yin and柔soft, so subtly elusive that it can even escape the notice of gods and spirits. It can silently infiltrate another’s mind and steal any memory. The reason you feel your spiritual power increasing is because you lack this yin and柔soft energy. Even a slight increase thus feels greatly amplified, but this perception is actually an illusion. Furthermore, the Dream Demon Technique is of little use to immortals, because immortals primarily cultivate Tian Hun, which is purely yang in nature, and therefore naturally incompatible with the Dream Demon Technique.”

Shui Miao felt slightly disappointed. If that were the case, what use was there for him to cultivate the Dream Demon Technique?

Immediately, Shui Miao stopped his cultivation.

Sensing Shui Miao’s thoughts, Madame Meng San continued, “Actually, if you want revenge, you can achieve it by cleverly utilizing formations. It would be best to avoid using the Soul Devouring Force.”

Madame Meng San was the second person, after the spirit of the Immortal Mirror, to advise Shui Miao against overusing the Soul Devouring Force.

“Why? Do you also sense something wrong with the Soul Devouring Force?” Shui Miao quickly asked.

“This Soul Devouring Force is too sinister. The fact that it was taught to you by Ling Shuai itself raises concerns,” Madame Meng San’s expression turned serious. “Furthermore, you don’t fully understand this power yourself. It can devour everything. Imagine, if one day it becomes uncontrollable, could it even devour you?”

Shui Miao was momentarily stunned. Indeed, he had always felt uncertain about the Soul Devouring Force.

“Shui Miao, there’s something I’ve wanted to say for a while…” Bu Yi stood up, his expression heavy. “During the last Heavenly War, I encountered a strange man. I was always puzzled by why he suddenly self-destructed. Now I somewhat suspect that he might have also cultivated the Soul Devouring Force. Perhaps he realized it was beyond his control and starting to devour him, so he chose self-destruction to prevent any further damage.”

“I will definitely give this some serious thought.”

Shui Miao’s mind turned, yet he was reluctant to believe this. He felt everything still depended on his own control, like a sharp knife that could be used to kill others or oneself. The key was one’s mindset, not the knife itself being inherently evil.

Seeing Shui Miao’s reaction, Bu Yi changed the subject. “Shui Miao, there’s another thing I must remind you. The Supreme Immortal is actually just a guard dog for someone else. His master is Hua Tianxiong. If you target Hua Tianxiong, you will be opposing Hua Tianxiong’s father, the head of the Yu Xu Hua family. His father is a Saint-level expert, a favored disciple of the founder of Yu Xu, the Supreme Immortal Emperor!”

Bu Yi revealed many connections in one breath.

Shui Miao couldn’t help but frown. “Didn’t Hua Tianxiong get swallowed by the demon dragon already? If so, then my only opponent is the Supreme Immortal, right?”

Seeing Shui Miao’s ignorance, Bu Yi became anxious. “Oh! Even if he was swallowed, he can still be reborn in the Immortal Realm! He must have left a soul talisman in the Immortal Realm. At most, his power will be somewhat weakened. If you kill the Supreme Immortal, he will still come after you.”

“Is that so…”

Shui Miao rubbed his chin, thinking that there were many ways to kill someone. If they were weakened, he could strike secretly.

Shui Miao had many cunning plans. As long as he put effort into it, he would find a way to eliminate Hua Tianxiong.

To achieve his plan, Bu Yi changed the topic. “What I mean is, before the Heavenly War begins, we should make as many friends as possible and not reveal our intentions. Once the Heavenly War starts, we can take advantage of the chaos to seek revenge. At that time, no one will have time to deal with you. We can take advantage of the chaos and fish in troubled waters!”

“Bu Yi, this doesn’t sound like you. By doing so, you might lead the dwarves into irreversible disaster!”

Madame Meng San suddenly spoke up.

Knowing Bu Yi’s nature well, Madame Meng San was surprised to find him changed today—he was actually suggesting taking advantage of the chaos!

The Heavenly War was complex and chaotic. Madame Meng San bluntly warned Bu Yi because she cared about him.

Bu Yi shook his head. “It’s not that I want to lead my people into war, but they are pushing us step by step, taking every opportunity to swallow us. We must fight back to stop them from ever daring to covet the dwarves again, thus eliminating future threats forever!”

Bu Yi had made up his mind. The Immortal Sage Yu Hua was already getting restless. If he didn’t act now, he might never get another chance.

“That’s simply impossible!”

Madame Meng San countered. “As long as you stand up, the immortals and gods won’t let you go. Even if you can temporarily suppress them, what then? Can you guarantee that the dwarves will always have powerful protectors, forever remaining invincible? That’s obviously impossible. Bu Yi, I advise you to show weakness instead. Sell your powerful magical treasures at a low price to show the dwarves’ determination not to get involved in the Heavenly War. Only then can you protect yourselves!”

“Enough, San Niang. Don’t try to persuade me anymore. We dwarves have suffered enough,” Bu Yi shook his head firmly. “Shui Miao has promised to help our dwarves with three tasks. I don’t want anything else. I just need him to help set up three extraordinary formations so we can forge three supreme magical treasures. With three supreme treasures, and if I forge another one myself, five supreme treasures will protect the dwarves. Even if ancient sages from the past emerge, we won’t fear them.”

Hearing this, Shui Miao’s mind stirred. “Brother Bu Yi, rest assured. I will do my utmost to set up three extraordinary formations and then find a way to connect the five supreme treasures so their power will be boundless, and no one will be able to break through.”

“Great! Thank you, my brother!”

Bu Yi was very pleased with these words.

Bu Fa was also excited. If they could forge five interconnected supreme treasures, they would truly become invincible.

Hearing Shui Miao’s words and knowing he had the Time Tower, Madame Meng San also believed Shui Miao could indeed set up three extraordinary formations that would shake the heavens.

Unavoidably, Madame Meng San also felt inspired. “How about this? I will go with you to the Immortal Realm. In one way or another, I can lend you a helping hand.”

“Great! Wonderful!”

“This is truly excellent!”

Bu Yi and Bu Fa couldn’t help but feel excited.

Suddenly, Shui Miao spoke up. “I think we must quickly create a super powerful magical treasure and then rush to the Lu Sha seabed to find the dragon and see if we can capture Hua Tianxiong to obtain some clues from him. Moreover, the thousand-year-old female ghost still possesses the Illusion Demon Mirror. If we obtain it, I can understand its formation techniques and elevate my comprehension of formations to a new level.”

Mentioning the Illusion Demon Mirror, Madame Meng San’s heart surged with excitement. “The Illusion Demon Mirror is a supreme treasure of our Demon Realm. A thousand years ago, the Ancestor of Dreams and Demons painstakingly forged the Illusion Demon Mirror. With it, the Ancestor once advanced all the way to the Third Heaven of the Immortals, where all immortals below the Third Heaven were bewitched by illusions. However, the Buddha’s golden finger pierced through the illusions, and the Ancestor of Dreams and Demons could not withstand the pursuit of the immortals and eventually exploded, marking a great defeat for our Dream Demon Clan and a bold attempt to conquer the Immortal Realm. Shui Miao, if you can grasp the essence of the Illusion Demon Mirror and recreate it, our Dream Demon Clan will forever honor you as our Holy Ancestor. No matter what, we will willingly follow your command.”

“Shui Miao, this is the Supreme Magical Treasure, the Tian Dou Four Symbols Formation, which I painstakingly forged over two thousand years. This treasure consumed one hundred thousand immortal artifacts from our dwarven clan and possesses boundless power. Take it and study it well. If there are any modifications needed, let’s work together to improve its power.” Bu Yi took out a jade disk, two meters in diameter, from his spatial ring and handed it to Shui Miao.

“Bu Yi, you… you actually forged the Tian Dou Four Symbols Formation? No wonder you dared to cause trouble in the Immortal Realm!”

At that moment, Madame Meng San was stunned. A magical treasure forged from one hundred thousand immortal artifacts was something only the wealthy dwarven clan could accomplish.

The dwarven clan, the dark horse, was finally ready to strike.

This Heavenly War was destined to be turbulent and bloody!

“Brother, let me enter your ring. I’ll use the Time Tower to start researching formations. When you find the dragon and discover Hua Tianxiong, call me out!” Shui Miao felt excited. Now, everything was ready except for the final push. As long as he worked hard enough, anything beyond imagination would become possible.
