Xu Zhi could feel that the energy of the [Light] attribute was already abundant enough. She felt as if the "big dream" that was so mysterious to others was right in front of her. It was just a door that she could open at any time. Even if she wanted to, she could close her eyes and enter it.
But...it's not the best time yet.
Xu Zhi "looked" at the circuit in his body. The [Light] attribute circuit had expanded another circle compared to more than a month ago. Now the tentacles' repairs had stopped, as if they had reached a bottleneck.
The [Moth] hiding behind it is still working overtime to catch up, and it seems that it is not far behind.
"Wait a little longer."
She had to wait until [Moth] reached the fourth level of longevity.
No one would have thought that there would be extraordinary people in this world who wanted to advance the two extraordinary attributes in their bodies to [Named] at the same time!
This idea was really crazy. Even Xu Zhi was not sure what she would encounter after entering the big dream.
But, she had to do it.
Because she was not sure whether the "great achievements" she had accomplished in the big dream were disposable or could be used repeatedly?
It would be terrible if it was a disposable item. After upgrading the [Lamp], what should I do with the [Moth]?
It would be too much trouble to complete another great undertaking, and she would not have any spare time in the short term.
So Xu Zhi made a bold decision. She wanted to upgrade both attributes to [Named] at once!
There is still about half a month before school starts. Xu Zhi gives himself a deadline of completing the promotion before school starts and then entering the land of loss.
She had no attachment to campus life, but it was not easy for her to just disappear. After all, she might need to use Guangming Courtyard later, and Qi Yanxin still lived here, so going to the Lost Land and not coming back was a good excuse to skip school.
After Xu Zhi used up all her resources to speed up the progress without treating money as money, and almost used up all her stockpiled [Moth] attribute cores, she finally managed to raise the [Moth] attribute to the fourth level of longevity before school started.
The moment the [Moth] attribute circuit also stopped "growing", an attraction that Xu Zhi could hardly refuse came from the "sky", making her almost faint.
That strong attraction did not come from anywhere else, but from the "big dream"!
Before preparing to "fall asleep", Xu Zhi took out her bracelet to check the message. Many of her teammates seemed to be worried that even with the resources they had, they could not successfully enter Mansu. Xu Zhi's expression was a little strange, because she felt that she was almost forcibly captured by Mansu.
Even now, she could feel her body seemed to be floating, an invisible temptation pulling her, as if there was a gentle voice in her ear urging her to go to this place quickly.
It's really hell.
I have never seen anyone asking others to come in.
Xu Zhi put down the bracelet, placed the little alien beside him, and asked Xiaoyi to watch over him. Then he lay on the bed and slowly closed his eyes, accepting the guidance from "Mansu".
There was a momentary blank in my mind, and my body seemed to cease to exist. Everything was light, and dazzling white filled my brain. It seemed that everything in the world was melting away and returning to its essence at this moment.
Xu Zhi felt a kind of "gaze", or rather, a warm light shining on her, which gradually brought her back to consciousness.
The endless white in front of her eyes slowly disappeared, and her vision returned to normal. She saw a place that was somewhat familiar, yet very unfamiliar.
She stood in a thick fog, unable to see the road ahead, and even the ground under her feet was very blurry, but there seemed to be tall, shadowy figures all around her, and she had to look up to see the tops of the trees.
Xu Zhi was well aware that she was probably already in a big dream, and was perhaps now undergoing the test of being promoted to [Named One].
Based on previous experience, does the test require her to find the path she wants to take?
But why is this so?
Xu Zhi was a little confused. In the previous tests, there was at least a path for her to choose. What happened now? There was not even a path. There was thick fog blocking the way forward in all directions.
Should she choose her own direction?
Is that right?
Xu Zhi did not act rashly, but stood there and observed for a while. Then she confirmed that if she just stood there, nothing would change. This place did not bring her any sense of crisis, but it would not allow her to gain anything. Even if she wanted to "wake up" now, it was impossible.
It seems that we must "move forward" first.
Strictly speaking, what she had experienced before were all incomplete dreams, and this was the first time she was truly tested by Mansu.
Xu Zhi had a premonition that perhaps this test would be different from every previous one.
She stretched out her hand to test the fluctuating mist. The white mist coiled, curled, and flowed as her fingers waved. It did not seem to be aggressive at all, and its purpose seemed to be only to block her sight and perception.
"Whatever."
Xu Zhi closed his eyes, chose a direction based on his intuition, then took a step forward.
Although the surroundings were covered with thick fog, Xu Zhi did not feel damp, and even felt faintly warm, as if it was not a foggy day, but a pleasant afternoon. The gentle breath made her feel a little dizzy, and her brain seemed to gradually empty. She no longer thought, but wanted to close her eyes and act according to her instinct.
Xu Zhi walked forward aimlessly. Her mentality was pretty good and she didn't seem nervous. It might be because this place didn't give her any strong sense of crisis, or maybe the warm feeling on her body was too comfortable.
When she took the 185th step forward, which was also the 72nd tree she passed by, she finally saw something different.
A forked tree with a lantern hanging on it.
Looks quite familiar.
"Hey, isn't this my lamp?"
Xu Zhi stopped here, looked at the lantern hanging on the tree branch, and then confirmed that it was indeed her lantern.
Why are you here?
Never mind, let’s get it first.
The fork in the branch was just where she could reach the lantern, and Xu Zhi easily took it down.
As soon as the lantern came into her hand, for some reason, it automatically started to burn, and then the thick fog around her quietly dissipated about ten meters away.
"So useful?"
Xu Zhi was a little surprised. She looked at the ground, but still couldn't see the road. She could only see the muddy ground, so she continued walking forward.
At the 362nd step, she suddenly saw a small wooden house in front of her.
The cabin was quite simple and new, very new, as if it had just been built.
The place where it appeared was right in front of her, and it seemed that if she wanted to continue moving forward, she had to enter this wooden house.
Xu Zhi didn't think too much. She felt that she was on the right path. There was a wooden house, so she might as well go in and take a look. So she walked to the wooden house and easily pushed open the brand new wooden door. The moment the door was opened, Xu Zhi's eyes turned white.
Then she found herself back at the very beginning, the "starting point" surrounded by thick fog, and the lantern in her hand disappeared.
