And some people were inexplicably given a "super seniority".

Gu Xinghe also felt that he should do what an elder should do to care for his younger generation.

Although the "junior" Byrne, who was making breakfast in the kitchen at this time, looked much older than him.

However, it is clear that in the world before Gu Xinghe's transmigration, the issue of seniority was just as complicated.

For example, an octogenarian or 90-year-old might call a 5- or 6-year-old child "uncle".

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for Gu Xinghe, who is only in his early twenties, to have a grandchild who is in his fifties or sixties.

And in order to show his respect to Bourne, who was making him breakfast at that moment, he wanted to show his care as an elder.

Gu Xinghe decided it was time to seriously consider how to deal with the ancient tree that was in the "dream".

And the villagers in the village, which is now located in the completely polluted "Mind Realm," were rescued.

Because if the game system's task for Gu Xinghe indicated that he only wanted to revive the ancient tree...

However, in the actual process of carrying out the rescue...

Gu Xinghe, however, had to take into account whether the person he was rescuing was willing to be saved.

Compared to its own survival.

The ancient tree seemed more concerned with rescuing its only remaining "child" from the already corrupted "spiritual realm".

Gu Xinghe understood this—

If you want to complete the game system's task to revive the ancient tree...

Therefore, he can only make the adult choice of "wanting it all"—

While trying to infuse the ancient trees that refused to "drink medicine" with the energy of "hope," allowing them to nurture the hope of new life.

He also needs to figure out how to "strip" the villagers, who have almost become symbiotic with this space, from it.

Although he had previously consumed the black mud inside the villagers' bodies.

Gu Xinghe discovered that he possessed a purification ability with extreme restraint regarding this space—

This is reflected in the fact that although he was constantly aware of the malice and targeting he was in the [Mind Realm] space.

But at the same time, it can also swallow the black mud formed by this malice and digest it at will.

This contradiction always occurs simultaneously through mutual interaction.

However, it is clear that if this kind of "purification" is directly applied to the [Mind Realm], it would be problematic.

Because of their symbiotic relationship, the villagers will inevitably be affected as well.

This is actually a naturally existing relationship of mutual generation and mutual restraint.

The despair that permeates the [Mind Realm] can be precisely limited.

This made it difficult for Gu Xinghe to perceive anything in this space.

He must also have some restraint from the pollution caused by despair.

Therefore, the game system teleported him to this level of space for the purpose of running the instance.

Perhaps the hope is that he can revive the ancient tree.

Does it also initiate a comprehensive "holy light purification" to completely cleanse the pollution in one's mind?

However, in the past, the gods' influence and control over humanity in reality were achieved through the space of the "Mind Realm".

In other words, the "spiritual realm" can be seen as the "root" of the human inner spiritual world in the real world.

However, as long as the corresponding modifications are made at this "root cause".

In reality, people's thoughts and consciousness will naturally change even when they themselves are aware of it.

So, at this moment, Gu Xinghe was thinking—

If he were to unleash a "holy light" now, it would "purify" the entire [Mind Realm].

The question is whether going too far could lead to a void in people's inner spiritual world.

The game system seemingly teleported him here to run the dungeon without any hesitation.

Is it because they don't care at all, or is it intentional?

But clearly, Gu Xinghe, who still has his own base in the real world, doesn't want to destroy the world so easily.

Therefore, in order not to destroy the entire [Mind Realm] space.

This is also to liberate the villagers from the symbiotic bondage of the [Mind Realm].

He wanted to ensure that the ancient tree rooted in the "dream" could accept his help with peace of mind.

Gu Xinghe decided to assimilate only the black mud formed from the materialization of despair within the [Mind Realm].

Instead of digesting it directly as before.

Gu Xinghe got his inspiration for this method from the behind-the-scenes "programmer" in the dream world.

As long as this assimilation is carried out discreetly and is difficult to detect.

So, before the other party can react, the original "other party" has already become one of their own.

Just like how the Dreamland had silently assimilated all those who entered it into becoming its inhabitants.

However, the difficulty lies in how to deal with the despair that has permeated the entire "Mind Realm".

What about turning assimilation into what seems like a completely contradictory "hope"?

Perhaps, it's not impossible.

Just like extraordinary miracles born from the ordinary everyday.

The flower of hope that blossoms from despair is naturally all the more moving.

Moreover, there is the presence of villagers in this completely polluted [Mind Realm].

Isn't it a flower of hope blooming in despair?

Miracles born from the everyday, hope born from despair.

As a result, Gu Xinghe felt that the concepts he had grasped had become even broader.

Aside from not using too much force, which could cause the entire "spiritual realm" to be "purified" too "cleanly,"...

There are actually other things Gu Xinghe needs to be aware of—

How could he, all by himself, plot a "rebellion" within enemy-controlled territory?

Especially now that he can constantly feel the malice directed at him by his surroundings.

The disadvantage of playing away from home was fully revealed at this time.

Thus, before the formal "rebellion".

In order to preserve the integrity of the entire [Mind Realm] space and the existence of the villagers.

Gu Xinghe chose to "steal the base" first.

They secretly "stole" the strategic resources that the enemy had stored in the rear before they even realized what was happening.

Then, in the end, they completely destroy the other party's "home".

Ultimately, the entire [Mind Realm] space is "purified".

This allowed hope to sprout even in areas that were originally filled with despair.

At the same time, Gu Xinghe was also able to access the [Mind Realm].

They gradually removed the influence and imprint left by the gods on humanity in the real world, leaving their own mark instead.
