After studying the Blood Eye and the Strange Hair Technique, which he had mastered perfectly, Fang Xiu took a nap.
With his physical condition, he naturally doesn't need to rest, let alone take a nap, he doesn't even need to sleep at night.
But he had to sleep, otherwise how could he see the nightmare?
Soon, Fang Xiu fell asleep.
He arrived at a dark and damp dungeon, stained with blood, with shelves on both sides filled with all sorts of torture instruments.
The deepest part of the dungeon is a nightmare bound by countless iron chains.
Since this is Fang Xiu's dream, the entire environment is arranged according to his wishes. He simply thought that nightmares would prefer it, so he made it this way. After all, it's eerie, so it certainly wouldn't like things like sunshine and beaches.
At that moment, Nightmare heard Fang Xiu's footsteps and screamed in terror, the chains binding him rattling loudly.
He stared in horror at Fang Xiu as he slowly approached, shouting, "Why are you here again?! Nap!! You actually take a nap?! You clearly never used to take naps before!"
You bastard! You slept twice a day just to torture me! Ugh!!
After the nightmare finished roaring, it began to beg for mercy. It had begged for mercy countless times over the past few days.
"Fang Xiu, please stop torturing me. I was wrong. I'll do anything you want, just stop torturing me." Nightmare wept bitterly, his former arrogance long gone.
It now deeply regrets its immortality, to the point that it can't even commit suicide.
It had hoped countless times for a natural or man-made disaster to wipe out everyone in Green Vine City, so that it could die peacefully as well.
After begging for mercy, Nightmare, as if suffering from a split personality, glared angrily at Fang Xiu and cursed him.
"I'm going to kill you! Fang Xiu! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to skin you alive, pull out your tendons, and drink your blood!"
"Please, please stop torturing me..."
Fang Xiu was already used to the nightmare's state; after a month of torment, the nightmare had long since driven him mad.
Nightmares are not pure monsters, but rather monsters artificially transformed by the Dean, so their way of thinking is more human-like.
After being tormented by Fang Xiu's power of pain for a month, Nightmare's human mind had already descended into madness.
Facing the crazed Nightmare, Fang Xiu simply said, "Nightmare, I'm here to kill you. Now that I have perfect control over my strange physique, I can completely devour you."
"What!?" Upon hearing this, Nightmare, who was still kneeling and begging for mercy, stood up with a face full of wild joy the next second: "Why didn't you say so sooner! Quick, do it!"
At this moment, the surrounding space began to change abruptly, all the scenes began to shatter, and the colors began to become chaotic, as if a palette had been mixed together.
In the end, the vibrant colors faded into a deep darkness, which grew ever larger, enveloping everything around it.
Slowly, darkness began to erode the nightmare.
Perhaps because it possesses its own consciousness, the darkness eroded very slowly; after a long time, it had only corroded the surface.
Upon seeing this, Nightmare panicked and began attacking his own body relentlessly, leaving it riddled with holes and black smoke billowing out.
It even actively embraces the darkness, conjuring up a gaping maw that constantly devours the darkness, allowing it to corrupt it.
The pain of being devoured caused the nightmare to scream incessantly, but the expression on its face grew increasingly excited.
"Finally... finally I'm free!"
Nightmare's bloodshot eyes were filled with a mad desire for death; heaven knows how he'd managed to get through the past month.
Hours later, the nightmare's body completely dissipated and disappeared forever.
Fang Xiu also perfectly mastered the Nightmare.
Only after he mastered Nightmare did he realize just how terrifying its potential truly was!
Fang Xiu originally thought that the horror of nightmares lay in their ability to absorb the fear of the entire world and grow infinitely.
But now that I actually own it, I've realized that it's not like that at all.
After absorbing the fear of the entire Green Vine City, Nightmare underwent some mysterious qualitative change, seemingly breaking through some kind of boundary and completing an upgrade, thus gaining a new characteristic.
Its characteristic of blurring the lines between illusion and reality.
Simply put, it can transform reality into a dreamlike illusion, and a dreamlike illusion into reality.
The reason Nightmare was able to transform the entire Green Vine City into a dreamlike realm was by utilizing this characteristic, thus enabling the conversion between reality and dreams.
Although the transformation at the time was imperfect, a mixture of reality and dreams, it was still terrifying enough.
Breaking down the boundaries between illusion and reality, transforming the virtual into the real—what a terrifying ability that is.
This ability stems entirely from an upgrade and qualitative change that Nightmare underwent after absorbing the fear of Green Vine City, granting it a slight ability to transform between reality and illusion.
This characteristic is practically divine authority!
To give a simple example, you are surrounded and severely injured, which is a fact. However, if you activate the ability to switch between reality and illusion, you can transform the fact that you are severely injured into a false dream, which is equivalent to you not being injured at all.
You can even turn all attacks into fake ones, which means no one can kill you.
This ability isn't just for defense; it can be used for offense as well. You can conjure up a false power, like being able to destroy the world with a single blow in your dream. This is false, but you can transform it into reality. So, in reality, you can casually unleash a devastating attack that truly destroys the world.
How terrifying!
He can turn all unfavorable conditions into falsehoods and all favorable conditions into reality; he is truly invincible!
