This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder

Dreamwalker sat in a lotus position in a cave he dug out in a remote mountain. Although the mountain was large, the area didn’t have much spiritual qi density, so many forces ignored it. He had an ugly expression on his face. After making sure the Immortal Court hadn’t captured his traces from the infiltration of Cultivation Online, he once again spread his dream world.

Once it succeeded, not even the Immortal Court could deal with it. Easily, at least. They would have to pay a price they couldn’t afford.

He induced mortals into his dream world first. They were the easiest to conquer. Although Dreamwalker had the confidence that no one could see through his dream world, it didn’t mean he could be reckless. Immortals and talented mortal cultivators might discern something. Even if they didn’t, they could inform others.

Dreamwalker didn’t want to rattle the grass and cause everyone to hunt down the snake. If the Immortal Court were to learn of this matter, it would be troublesome. Only after the people who experienced the dream world thought it was unique to them would they treat it as a divine opportunity for themselves. This way, they would do everything to keep it a secret.

Unlike the lower realms, Dreamwalker planned to form his own force. They would be composed of individuals who have never embarked on the path of cultivation. Although the major force of the Primordial Realm could capture nearly all the talents, many fish would inevitably slip through. Sometimes, they didn’t have the luck or their circumstances were too special and no one could see their true talent.

He had slowly encroached over a hundred mortal cities and bestowed a few talented little fellows with suitable inheritances. Those fellows left their mortal lives behind and embarked on the path of cultivation. Just as everything seemed to be going on track, the area around the mortal cities changed.

It was as if they were trapped in a barrier that prevented them from leaving, an immortal grotto. Dreamwalker knew who had taken action. He had seen immortals from the Immortal Court appearing around the area. Aside from a few who left its ranges beforehand, all the people within were trapped. The spiritual qi density had decreased, too.

It was an obvious countermeasure against him.

Dreamwalker wanted to know how the Immortal Court discovered his actions, but it didn’t take long. Someone had entered his territory, Xi Tianyi, the Nine Heavens Emperor of the Immortal Court.

He considered just ending Xi Tianyi’s life then and there. He could detect him only because Xi Tianyi entered his territory, but were it not for that special circumstance, he would not have been able to detect the latter’s presence. After some induction, he discovered that Xi Tianyi had also entered all the realms he had passed. He didn’t know about the realms where the dream worlds didn’t exist, but the latter had likely also passed through them.

Dreamwalker even thought of leaving the Primordial Realm and entering the Numinous Realm. The only reason he ascended to the Primordial Realm and not the Numinous Realm was because the former was a newly ascended realm and the Immortal Court only recently gained full hegemony over it. It should have been easier to spread his influence in the Primordial Realm than the Numinous Realm, where the Numinous Sword Sect had entrenched itself for hundreds of thousands of years.

He shook his head. ‘No, it’s too fast to give up. I’ll attempt to draw in more denizens from my world, but first, I should move my body to prevent that damnable Xi Tianyi from coming back.’

Under his control, the unranked realm Xi Tianyi had visited started to shift. It broke its connection to the low-rank realm originally above it. Now, even if you had the original coordinates, you would not be able to find it. Even if an immortal wanted to descend from a low-rank realm, no one would be able to discover it, because the unranked realm had become an isolated territory. Unless an immortal monarch or stronger level expert entered from the Vast Void, the unranked realm was destined to be impossible to reach.

Suddenly, Dreamwalker’s expression changed. It turned from ugly to nasty.

The gigantic face on the ground opened its mouth and blew a breath of air on the descending Constellation Cessation. Contrary to Tianyi’s expectations, the Constellation Cessation didn’t explode early due to the interference. Rather, it started to turn blurry. Soon, it became translucent, and by the time it was within a hundred meters of the ground, it turned invisible.

No, rather than invisible, it should have disappeared. Tianyi couldn’t sense it anymore. It was as if the constellation cessation had never existed.

Tianyi frowned. However, he didn’t have time to ponder on how the gigantic face accomplished the feat as his body started to turn transparent, just like his spell. The more transparent he turned, the slower his thoughts turned. When he turned toward Minister Everpast and the others’ worry, his lips couldn’t help but twitch when he saw all of them were fine.

The reason his lips twitched wasn’t because they weren’t affected, but what they held. Each one held a pseudo-realm artifact, processed from the pseudo realms he created out of realm essence. In other words, the method they resisted from vanishing like himself was due to the pseudo-realm artifacts, something they didn’t equip him with.

Not long later, Tianyi’s form completely disappeared. His conduit had vanished.

The gigantic face frowned. He also noticed the realm artifacts in Minister Everpast, Primewood, and Vastlight’s possession. He could discern that they were weaker than average, but it was more than enough to resist his ability. “Bug, don’t think that you won just because you could resist my ability.”

Three gigantic arms stretched out from the ground and reached for the three immortal ministers. The three didn’t panic and grouped together. They threw the three pseudo-realm artifacts into three evenly distant locations. Minister Everpast took out a small sphere that resembled a mustard seed and started chanting.

The gigantic face frowned. He could sense that seemingly useless mustard seed was a powerful realm artifact, far above the three they threw. He wanted to interfere, but it was already too late.

A bubble appeared with the mustard seed-shaped realm artifact at its core. Its borders reached where the three pseudo-realm artifacts were located.

As soon as the three hands reached the boundary of the bubble, they halted in their place. No, that wasn’t right. They were still moving forward, but it was as if the three hands separated from the three immortal ministers by an infinite gulf. No matter how far the hands traveled, they could not shorten the distance.

Although it looked like a domain, its true nature was that of a realm. Although it did not have the sky, land, or sea, it was undoubtedly a realm.

The gigantic face recognized the formation, True Realm Descent Formation. Most realm artifacts had a realm within and could trap targets within. However, if the trapped target was too powerful, it would invariably damage the realm artifact and it would take a lot of resources to heal, like what Tianyi had done to Demon Empress Bluefeather’s Sacred Fire Grotto.

The True Realm Descent Formation eliminated that weakness. Instead of trapping a target within its realm, it projected a false realm outward. The power consumption increased, and it required multiple realm artifacts, but it was much safer than trapping a dangerous foe within, especially a chaos fiendgod.

Chaos fiendgods were the god of gods, the divine deities born from the primordial chaos. Although Pangu defeated them all and used their corpses to create the Primordial World, their strength could not be denied. Anyone of them could easily crush most divinities of the primordial era outside of some exceptions.

The gigantic face was one such chaos fiend. He did not rank amongst the forefront of power, but the divine law he mastered was extremely esoteric. Even in his current state, a remnant, he could match most divinities.

The hands disappeared. The ground of the unranked realm rumbled as the shape distorted, and the dimensional boundary lowered. It pressed down on the True Realm Descent Formation and pushed it toward the ground. Unlike the last time, the formation could not defeat this move.

Minister Everpast formed several hand seals, and under his control, the True Realm Descent Formation shrunk. It flew up directly against the dimensional boundary that was pushing down. The two sides collided and fought. It didn’t take long for the victor to emerge as the True Realm Descent Formation shattered a small portion of the dimensional boundary and escaped the unranked realm.

“Do you think you’ve escaped just like this?” the giant face asked.

The gigantic face receded into the ground. For a moment, it seemed as if the unranked realm had returned to its previous state, but the dimensional boundary continued to lower and lower until it was just above the ground. Then, the realm itself shifted. It contorted until it resembled a vast sphere of ever changing mist.

The mist changed until a giant inhumane face appeared, like a disembodied head. This was the remnant of the Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams. Because Pangu didn’t kill him fully, the Law of Dreams did not exist in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System, only the Concept of Dreams.

The giant head opened its mouth and charged forward to swallow the immortal ministers of their True Realm Descent Formation whole.

Naturally, Minister Everpast and the others would not let the remnant of the Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams to succeed. The True Realm Descent Formation expanded until it was millions of kilometers large. Once it reached that point, the bubble denoting its boundaries disappeared, along with everything else, including the immortals within. It was almost as if the remnant chaos fiendgod had banished them like he did with Tianyi.

“Law of Spacetime? Unfortunately, it’s lacking!”

White mist dispersed from the giant head and pervaded the area. Once it reached a certain distance, it stopped, revealing the size of the True Realm Descent Formation. However, that wasn’t its goal. Soon, an object resembling a crystal ball filled with mist appeared in the Vast Void—if said crystal ball was millions of kilometers long.

Within the mist, the three immortal ministers appeared. Their faces had paled dramatically and their chest heaved, as if suppressing something. Still, the lights in their eyes did not diminish. Rather, it intensified.

The dimensional boundary of the True Realm Descent Formation started to shrink. They ignored all the harmful effects the white mist had on them, even as the lower half of their body cracked like fractured glass. Piece by piece, their bodies fell off, but still, they didn’t care.

The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams had already sensed an ominous premonition. Originally, he only thought it was some bugs he could deal with, but now he knew it was wrong. Their presence was definitely a trap. He didn’t believe that the True Realm Descent Formation could seal him, so there must be something else waiting.

As one of the few chaos fiendgods to survive Pangu’s purge, he had always focused on survival first. So, he immediately attempted to escape. He would have his revenge for this humiliation later.

The boundary of the True Realm Descent Formation continued to shrink. Simultaneously, the mist thickened. The formation shrunk until it was less than a hundred thousand kilometers large, and the inside was so full of mist, it appeared like a gigantic pearl instead of a crystal ball.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the pearl, and mist leaked out immediately. The more time passed, the more mist that leaked out, and so did the size of the crack. Finally, it completely shattered and the sound of shattered glass echoed in the Vast Void.

Without wasting a moment, the remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams shot away, but before it could go far, a figure teleported in front of him.

“Why do you still exist!?”
