Chapter 109: Chapter 84: Sixth Rank Soul Armor and Great Dream Spring and Autumn_3

Xiezhi introduced.

"Thank you for guarding." Zhao Xing also noticed the special nature of the Soul Armor, feeling a warm sensation throughout his body. That warm feeling came from the comfort and security of his soul.

"Sixth-rank Soul Armor, equipped with the first part of the state religion’s secret technique. You must not leak it out."

"If someone discovers the existence of the Soul Armor and leaks it out..."

"Don’t worry, unless you die, no one will know about the Soul Armor." Xiezhi said calmly, "If you do die, the court will avenge you, reclaim the Soul Armor, and eliminate anyone who knows about it."

Zhao Xing nodded silently. Although this Xiezhi mechanical beast was spiritual and able to communicate, it was limited to the Heavenly Craft Palace and did not know that Da Li was already destroyed.

"It’s almost dawn; your soul is too weak. Leave now."

Then Xiezhi blew gently, and Zhao Xing immediately exited the Heavenly Craft Palace, finding himself outside the Dream Palace in a single breath.

...

Opening his eyes, the familiar mosquito net came into view.

Zhao Xing felt his chest, finding a pair of pendants and three elixirs.

Among them, there were two fourth-rank elixirs: the Five Internal Organs Exorcism Pill and the Giant Whale Pill, and a third-tier elixir: the Earth Evil Pill.

As for the sixth-rank treasure Soul Armor, it had fused into his body, directly guarding inside his Sea of Consciousness.

Sixth-rank treasures were still worldly treasures, though remarkable, couldn’t be called Divine Weapons; they didn’t have the magical effect of merging into the body like this one did.

But it was a sub-body of the unparalleled treasure "Sunrise Sky," so it possessed the effects of a seventh-rank "Divine Weapon," allowing it to be kept directly inside the body.

"Sunrise Sky... I wonder if this divine weapon is in the Dream Palace." Zhao Xing pondered silently. During the Fortune Dynasty era, there were a few unparalleled treasures that transcended the times.

They were handed down from ancient times, having lost most of their power due to the dormancy of Spiritual Energy, only to shine again in the Recovery Era.

If given the chance, Zhao Xing certainly wanted to obtain the mother body of the Soul Armor.

"Xiezhi said that at the end of the Heavenly Craft Palace’s challenges lies a rare treasure, but it shouldn’t be the mother body of the Soul Armor. I wonder where it is."

This time’s breakthrough, without a doubt, the greatest gain was the sixth-rank Soul Armor.

And the Nightmare Sect’s supreme art "Great Dream Spring and Autumn" attached to it.

Of course, the Giant Whale Pill, Earth Evil Pill, and Five Internal Organs Exorcism Pill were quite good too; their immediate effects were noticeable when taken.

Every time he entered the palace, there were enormous gains, making Zhao Xing feel a bit sentimental:

"What a treasure mountain it is. Properly using this wealth to endure until the Recovery Era might not be that hard after all."

....

After the autumnal equinox Mountain Opening, the officials had a two-day holiday.

Zhao Xing didn’t need to go to work and stayed home to absorb the benefits.

He didn’t need the Earth Evil Pill for now as it required the use of a specific Magic Technique for refining evil to maximize its effects, and the same was true for the Five Internal Organs Exorcism Pill.

As for the Giant Whale Pill, it took him the whole day to fully digest it.

"After taking this pill, I feel as stuffed as if I had eaten a whale." Zhao Xing moved around the courtyard, his complexion rosy.

Zhao Zheng found it miraculous to see his elder brother running and jumping all day without needing to eat. His brother was simply amazing!

Zhao Ruide was rather surprised, sensing that Zhao Xing had undergone significant changes within the day.

It was mainly from his aura.

In the morning, Zhao Xing’s breathing and Gathering Essence into the body were still normal.

But by nightfall, his breathing had become exceedingly long, and the speed of Gathering Essence into the body had noticeably increased.

"I’ve seen Martial Artists with such a physique often, but it’s the first time I’ve seen a Minister of Agriculture with such a physique. I wonder what experiences he had on the mountain." Zhao Ruide thought his son had experienced some fortuitous encounter on the mountain.

Now it would be inaccurate to say Zhao Xing was as strong as a bull; rather, he was as strong as an elephant.

"If he practices martial arts, he might also qualify." Zhao Ruide couldn’t help but sigh. In contrast, Zhao Zheng, almost eight years old, showed no talent for martial arts and was extremely lazy, causing a lot of headaches.

At night, Zhao Xing lay in bed, beginning to cultivate "Great Dream Spring and Autumn."

"Nightmare Sect is Da Li’s state religion, and Great Dream Spring and Autumn is its classic supreme art." Zhao Xing had a deep impression of this supreme art because it used ’dreams’ very cleverly.

Though supreme arts from the sect era had lost their peak strength in this era, "Great Dream Spring and Autumn" was an exception.

’Dream Killing,’ ’One Dream of Heaven and Earth,’ even in this era, were quite formidable. It was undoubtedly a powerful technique transcending eras.

"People have three souls: Heavenly Soul, Earth Soul, and Life Soul."

"The Heavenly and Earthly Souls often wander outside, only the Life Soul resides in the body."

"After the Life Soul enters the physical body, its potential disperses into the body, forming the Seven Spirits of a person."

"The Heavenly Soul is the rebirth soul, and the Earth Soul is the karma soul."

"The Heavenly and Earthly Souls wander outside, interacting with the Life Soul, this interaction is called ’dream.’"

"Thus, people might dream of places they’ve never been to, feel certain places are familiar, or dream of people they have a strong cause-and-effect relationship with, even sensing something extraordinary."

"For example, dreaming of a distant relative’s death before the news arrives."

"Or recalling conversations with childhood friends in dreams."

Zhao Xing encountered several interesting ideas while learning the introductory Chapter of "Great Dream Spring and Autumn."

"The introductory Chapter of Great Dream Spring and Autumn has two stages: one is Dream Interpretation, and the other is Dream Walking."

"If you can enter dreams at will and control others to dream, you have truly begun the path."

"After entry, the second Chapter is ’Dream Travel.’"

"At that point, you can walk in others’ dreams, using the convergence of the three souls to cut off their three souls."

"Once the three souls are gone, the seven spirits in the body lose their leader, becoming mere zombies, not far from death."

Zhao Xing read through the introductory Chapter of "Great Dream Spring and Autumn."

Suddenly, several spells in the introductory Chapter caught his attention.
