The scene was somewhat shocking. Even though Fang Xiu had seen many indescribable and bizarre things, he still dared not look directly at Zhao Hao at this moment.
However, Fang Xiu quickly noticed something unusual. Through his spiritual perception, he discovered that Zhao Hao was also experiencing spiritual fluctuations!
Is Zhao Hao about to awaken his spirituality?
The next second, Zhao Haoteng sat up abruptly from the ground, his face flushed and panting heavily.
After taking in his surroundings, he was first taken aback, then suddenly overjoyed.
"Brother Hugh, am I...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Fang Xiu with a wary gaze.
"Are you Hugh?"
Seeing Zhao Hao's reaction, Fang Xiu felt that the other party had grown and at least had some capacity for thought, although not much.
To prove this wasn't a dream, Fang Xiu revealed some secrets: "The plumber's revenge, the gigantic female patient, the abalone game, the flight attendant's private services, Avatar..."
"Ah! Stop talking! You really did peek at my phone, Brother Xiu!" Zhao Hao got up from the ground with a very embarrassed expression and quickly stopped Fang Xiu.
"Alright, let's get ready to leave."
Zhao Hao nodded, but when he saw the state of his two colleagues' deaths, his pupils contracted and he sighed.
This time, the two stood before the real gate.
What they called opening the door before was actually just a dream; every time they reached the door, they were already in a dream.
Fang Xiu placed his hand on the door and suddenly felt something was strange.
Why didn't that ghost show up this time?
The first time I broke free from the dream, I was the only one left alive. A ghost appeared, and I asked myself why I wasn't afraid.
After breaking through the dream several times, the ghost never appeared. Fang Xiu guessed that it was because Zhao Hao and the others were still alive, so the ghost remained in the dream and did not come out.
But this last time, when everyone's dream ended, the strange thing did not happen. Why was that?
For some reason, Fang Xiu suddenly recalled Zhao Hao's actions just before he woke up—kissing and scratching at thin air. Could it be...?
He already had a guess in his mind, but instead of asking immediately, he pushed open the door.
All that met my eyes was darkness, like a black hole.
The two went inside and walked for about ten minutes before finally seeing the light.
As the light dissipated, the darkness receded slowly like the tide, revealing the outside world.
They appeared on the road.
This time, Fang Xiu was certain it wasn't a dream, because he saw those indescribable strange things on the dome, and even a few scattered creatures in the surrounding grove.
Not far behind them was the sales office of Bailiu Academy, while Qingshan Mental Hospital had disappeared from sight.
But in Fang Xiu's perception, Qingshan Mental Hospital had not disappeared; it was still there, embedded in the sales office.
This puzzled Fang Xiu. Why could he see the mental hospital before, but not now?
Previously, the sales office could not hide the mental hospital, but now the mental hospital has been integrated into the sales office.
Could it be that the mental hospital has become integrated into reality, and is therefore obscured by real-world scenery, whereas it was previously in a virtual state and was not obscured?
"Great, Brother Xiu, we're out!" Zhao Hao's face was filled with the ecstatic joy of surviving a disaster.
Fang Xiu didn't respond, but instead asked a question: "Ritian, have you awakened your spirituality?"
“Spirituality?” Zhao Hao was taken aback: “I seemed to have a strange feeling in the illusion just now.”
After saying that, he closed his eyes and carefully sensed the surroundings. A moment later, he opened his eyes and his face showed a look of ecstatic joy.
"Hugh, I feel like I've become Superman now. Not only have my five senses improved, but my strength has also increased. If that long-legged monster appears in front of me again, I'll knock her out with one punch!"
Fang Xiu nodded, not surprised at all.
After all, Zhao Hao had touched thighs quite a few times before, experienced life and death in the dream, and had a long and deep contact with the strange creature that controlled the dream, thus fulfilling the conditions for igniting spirituality.
But what abilities will Zhao Hao awaken while in a tent?
"What ability have you awakened?"
"Ability?" Zhao Hao sensed it for a moment, then scratched his head: "I don't think I can sense any ability."
"Can't sense it?" Fang Xiu was surprised, but since he didn't know much about spirituality, he didn't ask any further questions.
"Am I incapable? Didn't Wang Ziteng say that everyone who awakens their spirituality has abilities?" Zhao Hao's joy faded, and his face fell.
"Hugh, what are your abilities?"
"To foresee the future."
"What!? Predicting the future!?" Zhao Hao was in a state of extreme shock.
Fang Xiu nodded calmly.
It wasn't that he intentionally lied to Zhao Hao, but rather that he was making plans for the future. With his ability to rewind time after death, he would definitely demonstrate various forms of prophecy to some extent, so it was better for him to just say that he could foresee the future.
Furthermore, the ability to foresee the future is extremely valuable. If a Spirit Master organization truly exists, I could likely gain considerable benefits from this ability.
Since there are strange occurrences in this world, yet there is no global chaos, and there is very little strange news from the outside world, it means that there must be a large organization of spirit masters maintaining social order behind the scenes. They must have methods to become stronger, and even various resources that are beneficial to spirit masters.
Fang Xiu's desire to become stronger was extremely strong, so he had to raise his own value. As for being low-key? Would he quietly amass wealth? Or play the fool to outsmart the enemy?
Before being killed by the supernatural so many times, he might have chosen to keep a low profile and avoid attracting attention, but now, he only wants to become stronger quickly and then take revenge.
Just like in fantasy novels, where genius disciples receive a lot of resources no matter which sect they join, what Fang Xiu needs to do now is pretend to be a genius.
As for why he doesn't reveal his true abilities?
It's very simple. He doesn't know if dual-power users exist in this world. If it's like the anime One Piece from his previous life, where a person can only eat one Devil Fruit and only have one power, then revealing his dual powers would be a way of asking to be sliced up.
Sometimes, being half a step ahead is genius, but being a full step ahead is madness.
"Brother Hugh, no wonder you knew which way to go in the Ghost Realm and knew there was something strange about the safety passage. It turns out your ability is to foresee the future!"
Zhao Hao suddenly realized that he had been too scared in the Ghost Realm to notice Fang Xiu's foresight and had only subconsciously followed his orders. Now, looking back, he realized that every decision Fang Xiu made was correct, including how to save him.
What is this if not foreseeing the future?
He was initially happy that Fang Xiu had acquired such amazing abilities, but soon, the thought of his own lack of such abilities made him feel depressed, even more so than before.
He was both afraid his brother would suffer and afraid his brother would drive a Land Rover – this statement perfectly encapsulates Zhao Hao's mindset.
