Chapter 128: Chapter 111: Bizarre Dream
"Boom!"
A burst of Fist Power exploded, echoing in the hospital ward.
At dawn, Lin Yue finally grasped the essence and learned boxing. At this moment, she threw a punch that exploded like a muffled thunder. A seemingly ordinary punch was filled with astonishing explosive power. Such a punch was enough to penetrate the human body and take down cultivators of the same level.
"Good, congratulations, Sister Lin, for successfully learning boxing. This punch is just the beginning. After this, as long as you continue to explore this force, your Fist Power will become more proficient. Eventually, not just with your fists, but your kicks will also carry Fist Power,"
Li Yi said with a smile, feeling greatly relieved at this moment.
Sister Lin, his disciple, had finally graduated. Although there were some twists and turns along the way, she had successfully mastered the technique.
"Is this Fist Power? It’s truly miraculous, containing the mysteries of the human body. I can feel all the strength in my body converging to one point and exploding out. I feel like cultivators in the Inspiration Realm are no match for me," Lin Yue said as she looked at her fist, a hint of surprise appearing on her face.
Only after learning boxing did she understand the fascinating feeling of life and death at her fingertips.
No wonder Li Yi was able to defeat cultivators a level higher than him.
If I had mastered this boxing technique in the Spirit Medium Realm, I too would have the courage to challenge the experts of the world," she thought.
"Unfortunately, this boxing technique is incomplete. It has the practice method but lacks the fighting techniques. However, since Sister Lin has already mastered the boxing, and now that you are at the training base, why not simply find a traditional martial arts instructor and learn the fighting techniques from traditional martial arts?" Li Yi suggested at this moment.
Lin Yue’s eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately said, "That’s a good idea, but I haven’t fully grasped this boxing technique yet. I will consider the fighting techniques once I have completely mastered it."
"Makes sense, one must eat one bite at a time and walk step by step. Cultivation can’t be rushed," Li Yi nodded and said, "In that case, take your time to practice, Sister Lin. I feel a bit tired and need to sleep."
Only then did Lin Yue realize that it was already daylight. She hurriedly said, "Li Yi, don’t worry about me, go rest now. I will go to the training base to find a place to practice boxing, so I won’t disturb you. Remember, if you need anything, call me immediately, and I’ll be there. Don’t be polite with me, Sister Lin."
"Okay then, I’m going to sleep," Li Yi yawned, then lay down on the hospital bed, ready to catch up on some sleep.
Seeing this, Lin Yue quickly drew the curtains, turned off the lights, and tiptoed out of the ward.
As soon as she left the ward, Lin Yue’s brows furrowed, beginning to reflect on herself: "Now that Li Yi has suddenly taught me boxing and even used the Mysterious Object Cultivation Room for my training, but I haven’t given anything back to him. This won’t do. I can’t just take advantage without giving something in return. Otherwise, my relationship with Li Yi won’t last. I must do something to advance together and benefit mutually."
"Li Yi has always been interested in the Guiding Skill... but I don’t have enough money. Although I have been trying hard to save money recently, it’s still far from enough."
She was calculating in her mind where to gather such a large sum of money to purchase the Guiding Skill.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t much time, and Lin Yue didn’t have enough time to earn money otherwise, in half a year, she definitely could have gathered enough money to buy a technique.
"I have a property in AnDing District. I might as well sell it, put together the money, and if I borrow some, it should be enough. It’s a pity to lose the place in AnDing District, but as long as I can help Li Yi, that’s what matters. Moreover, one Guiding Skill is not enough to repay Li Yi. I need to find more opportunities to offer him bigger benefits in the future to show my sincerity," Lin Yue thought, her eyes sparkling as she came up with an idea.
Unable to contain her excitement, she immediately headed out toward the training base.
She decided to settle these matters today.
"Li Yi, wait for me. Tonight, I’ll bring you the Guiding Skill and make you happy," she thought with a slight smile on her lips, feeling good about gaining an edge over Li Yi.
Meanwhile, as Lin Yue thought about how to purchase the Guiding Skill, Li Yi had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Strangely enough,
this time, deeply asleep, Li Yi had a very realistic and somewhat bizarre dream.
In the dream, he found himself in complete darkness, and deep within the darkness, it seemed as if someone was urgently calling out to him.
"Li Yi, Brother Yi, where are you? Can you hear me? If you can hear me, then follow the sound and come toward me... Brother Yi, can you hear me?"
It was a woman’s voice, and very familiar.
Who is it?
Who could this woman be?
Li Yi was somewhat bewildered in the dream, but then he gradually remembered.
Wasn’t this Master Zhao Ge’s daughter, Zhao Qian, Miss Zhao?
"Miss Zhao, it’s me, Li Yi."
After a brief moment of bewilderment, he responded immediately, and then his body, as if driven by some mysterious force in the dream, started walking briskly toward the deep darkness.
"Brother Yi, Brother Yi, sob, I’m so glad you’re responding to me..." Zhao Qian’s emotion was off, crying in her dream, seeming very distressed.
"Sob!"
The faint sound of crying echoed in the dark dream.
Li Yi felt that something special was happening, so he immediately started running toward the source of the crying.
Strangely, as he ran, the surrounding darkness began to disperse like mist, and as the darkness cleared, some peculiar scenery began to appear.
It was a deserted village.
The village buildings did not look modern, but rather ancient, and in the middle of this village was a large rock, probably used by the ancients to grind grain. At this moment, Zhao Qian, dressed in paper clothes, was sitting on the grinding stone, crying and looking very sad.
"What’s wrong with Miss Zhao?"
Li Yi walked into the deserted village and stopped in front of Zhao Qian.
Upon seeing Li Yi’s appearance, Zhao Qian, who was in the dream, stopped crying and hurriedly said, "Brother Yi, you’re finally here, that’s great."
At that moment, Zhao Qian seemed to have found her pillar of support. She wiped her tears, stood up, and wanted to approach Li Yi, but then she suddenly remembered something and stopped in her tracks. Then she said with some urgency, "Brother Yi, we are meeting in a dream, and this dream will be brief. Brother Yi, listen carefully to what I have to say."
"What is it, Miss Zhao?" Li Yi replied.
Zhao Qian hurriedly said, "Tonight at midnight, please meet me at Ghost Street. Remember, tonight at midnight, meet at Ghost Street. Brother Yi, remember, do not forget..."
However, as she finished her sentence, a surge of black fog emerged. This fog seemed like a living creature, encroaching upon everything and instantly blurring the surroundings.
Li Yi’s expression changed. He tried to reach out and grab Zhao Qian, but he ended up grasping at thin air.
Zhao Qian disappeared, the village disappeared, everything disappeared, leaving only an endless darkness.
And within the darkness, the echo of Zhao Qian’s voice lingered: "Tonight at midnight, meet at Ghost Street..."
Suddenly.
Li Yi abruptly opened his eyes in the hospital room, awakened from the nightmare.
"A nightmare?" he gasped for air, unable to help but touch the cold sweat on his forehead.
"But that dream felt too real, as if my soul had left my body, and I really saw Zhao Qian... What exactly is going on? And Zhao Qian kept repeating one sentence, tonight at midnight, meet at Ghost Street? Is this true or false?"
Li Yi’s face showed a mix of emotions.
He touched his phone.
He checked some information.
Tonight at midnight refers to tonight from eleven PM to one AM, because an ancient hour equals two current hours.
"It is one in the afternoon now, which means I have ten hours left."
Li Yi then frowned and thought, "Just for an uncertain dream to run to the dangerous Ghost Street, isn’t that too impulsive, too childish? Although I have the experience of entering and exiting a dangerous area last time, I don’t need to worry too much about encountering danger, but Ghost Street is different, that place is sinister, filled with all sorts of strange dangers."
Suddenly, he was conflicted again.
But what if the dream was real, and Zhao Qian really arranged to meet him at Ghost Street, and he didn’t go as promised, wouldn’t that be terrible?
Moreover, in this dream, Zhao Qian was constantly crying, seeming to have something to ask of him.
Li Yi fell silent in thought, pondering the authenticity of the dream.
If the dream was real, he felt that he had to go no matter what. After all, he still had a human skin mask and Mud Horse, two things necessary for entering and exiting Ghost Street, so he wouldn’t get stuck there. There was at least some security assurance.
Of course, if this dream was just an arbitrary dream with nothing peculiar about it, then he need not take it seriously.
But that dream... bizarre yet so real, made it impossible for Li Yi to ignore.
Perhaps Zhao Qian had indeed used some special method to send a dream to arrange a meeting with him at Ghost Street.
Of course, there was another possibility that something in Ghost Street was impersonating Zhao Qian’s identity to lure him into Ghost Street.
After all, he still owed Ghost Street eighty years of lifespan.
And the ghost soldiers sent had died in his living room, leaving only a Hanging Man Spear behind.
If this was a trap set by Ghost Street, then Li Yi going there would be walking right into a trap, likely facing immense dangers or even possibly dying there.
What is true? What is false? Or could this be a trap?
Li Yi tried to analyze the situation, but the result only made his head hurt more.
It was really hard to judge.
"Why on earth would I have such a dream?" Li Yi shook his head, profoundly conflicted.
However, after thinking for a while, he decided to ask someone.
Whom to ask?
He had an idea.
Li Yi suddenly took out the broken Sword Coin.
"You malevolent Sword Coin resentment, analyze for me, was the dream I had just now real? Should I make a trip to Ghost Street?"
The Sword Coin remained silent, with no response.
"Could it be the wrong way of communication? Let’s try a different method." Li Yi immediately sat down, closed his eyes, held the Treasure Seal in his hand, and entered the cultivation state.
"You malevolent Sword Coin resentment, I ask you one thing, can you help me analyze what the dream I just had was about?"
This method worked.
Soon, the cosmic energy in the Sword Coin surged, and the broken human figure emerged: "Are you asking for my help? I can answer you, but under one condition: help me kill ten malevolent Earth Prisoners, and I will tell you everything that happened."
"Damn, kill ten people for one question? You are not just malevolent; you are practically a demon," Li Yi nearly exploded in anger.
"You are wrong. Earth Prisoners are the real malevolence. By asking you to kill Earth Prisoners, I am helping you accumulate virtue, not harming you. Besides, you are bound to fall into evil sooner or later; killing a few people for you is as simple as eating and drinking," the remnant in the Sword Coin spoke.
Since Li Yi needed help, he had to suppress the anger in his heart and asked, "I’ve said, I don’t like killing people, and I really hate it. Can we change the condition?"
