She gritted her teeth, suppressing her fear of death, and thought to herself in a self-deprecating way: [I hope that during this time I've been stalling, the reinforcements can take Old Gu away...]

But just as she had this thought, Black Nightmare seemed to be able to see through people's hearts and spoke politely:

"Don't be so self-satisfied, little girl..."

"No matter how long you stay here, the outside world is just a moment."

Li Wei was stunned, and then horrified.

How does he know what I'm thinking?

"Because this is a dream world, and nothing here can be hidden from the believers of dreams." Hei Yan answered kindly again.

"Senior..." Li Wei's scalp tingled, and she spoke cautiously, "Can we reconcile?"

Heiyan laughed wildly, as if to relieve the depression that had been pent up for a long time.

It took more than half a minute for him to stop laughing and regain his composure.

"Reconciliation? It's too late."

"From the moment we entered here, it was destined that only one of us could leave."

He tilted his head. "However, I don't like my prey to give in easily. I... can allow you to struggle a bit."

Li Wei perked up, supported herself with her elbows on the sticky ground, half-sat up, and stared at the purple mist on the face of the man in monk's robes.

"Senior, tell me, how...how did you struggle?"

She appeared obedient and timid on the surface, but secretly, she restrained all her thoughts, leaving only a few thoughts focused on the panel and the item column.

She planned to first cultivate a lotus sword and then look for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Hei Yan seemed to enjoy Li Wei's frightened and helpless look.

He even admired it quietly for a while before taking a step forward and slowly pacing on the purple-red fungal carpet.

"This is the world of dreams, and also the arena of the soul."

His voice was mellow and gentle, as if he was introducing his own courtyard.

"The winner takes it all."

"Loser, loses everything."

He stopped and turned to Li Wei, the purple mist on his face surging slightly.

"I can tell you the rules here, and you can try to use them to your advantage...that would be fun, wouldn't it?"

"Senior, you said..." Li Wei swallowed and prepared secretly with her hands to add some.

"Tsk tsk, here, you can use any power you've ever had. Of course... that power must have truly existed."

Hei Yan spread his arms, his tone full of magnanimity like almsgiving.

"Well, little girl, am I very kind?"

"You know, not every prey I 'swallow' has this...huh?"

Suddenly, his throat seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, and he became speechless in an instant.

He saw that the girl who had just been sitting on the ground with "misunderstanding" and "begging for mercy" written all over her face, stood up without any warning.

The sticky dirt on her body disappeared, and her light blue dress was as clean as before.

The fear and panic on her face faded away, leaving only a kind of calmness that looked down on all living beings. The aura around her suddenly became heavy and deep.

He saw the girl glance at him coldly, and it felt like she was looking at an ant on the side of the road.

He saw...

The girl's body slowly floated up and rose into the air.

At her feet, one, two, three... a total of nine crystal clear, holy and flawless huge lotus petals were outlined and bloomed out of thin air, supporting her body.

Then, he saw the light.

Endless, all-purifying, pure white light!

The light burst out from the girl's body, tearing apart the lead-gray cloud curtain, melting the twisted jungle, and evaporating the blood-red river water!

The entire strange and dark world collapsed under the illumination of this light!

"What senior? Bah!"

The girl's cold voice echoed in the collapsing world, filled with undisguised contempt.

"Ants!"

The next moment, she smiled.

“Hahahahahahahaha~”

“Hehehehe!”
