Let the White Bull of Heaven take a few steps back.
When the supreme power was divided between the two magicians, the Ladder of Dreams also ushered in a promotion ceremony that was destined to become the beginning of history. In the chaotic third level of the virtual world, four female magicians were about to start a new legend of secret poison.
The ceremony of Ash and the stars drinking from the Holy Grail together was broadcast live throughout the entire virtual realm, so Freya and the others who were on the Ladder of Dreams could naturally see it.
Because Ruby Mountain is right at the top of the Stairway of Dreams, they can be said to be the best audience. They witnessed with their own eyes how Ash, with the help of Rose and Silver Lantern, snatched back half of the Holy Grail from the hands of the Stars and competed with the Lord God for food with his mortal body.
Seeing this scene, the four of them had different expressions.
The one who was most worried was Freya. She seemed to be able to sense Ash's mood through a layer of virtual space, and her eyes were filled with tears.
An Nan stood on tiptoes excitedly, looking at Ash's back with eyes full of admiration;
Tamashi gripped his shield tightly with an unhappy look on his face, secretly hating himself for not being on the battlefield;
Shivlin calmly looked up at Ash's coronation and clapped her hands gently.
After this unprecedented festival ended and everything returned to normal, Freya breathed a sigh of relief. Her tense mood suddenly relaxed, and she collapsed to the ground, "Ash is fine, that's great..."
"The highest magic that has surpassed the boundaries of the Lord God... Now, the only magician who is qualified to enter the seventh level of the Void Realm, besides Fanxing, is Ash." An Nan's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light: "He will become the most powerful magician in history in the future..."
"He's already on the battlefield, which is beyond my reach." Tamashi stamped his feet in resentment and sighed, "When will I be able to catch up with him?"
Shivlin squatted beside Freya and asked with a smile: "Do you think it's really okay? Ash has to return to reality now."
"Of course, he will be safe when he returns to reality!" Freya said immediately: "After all, he has... has..."
The Veela was stuck, and she suddenly realized what was waiting for Ash in reality.
"On one side is Sword Princess, who has been waiting for nearly half a year, full of love and desire. On the other side is Ash, who has been chasing from the blood moon to the stars, going through thousands of hardships to entangle his beloved."
The little bat leaned close to the Veela's ear and whispered like a devil: "They can finally meet in reality. This will definitely be like the grassland on a midsummer night, with thunder and lightning igniting the earth and all the grass will burn. As soon as they meet, they will hug and kiss each other, right?"
“Woo woo…”
"And since we're all exhausted, it's normal for us to take a bath together, right?"
“Woo woo…”
"They will definitely sleep together at night. After all, there are endless topics to talk about and endless love words to say. When love is strong, they will be in perfect harmony. They will definitely do what you are thinking about now, Freya, right?"
"I, I'm thinking about something very pure!" Freya lowered her head, clamped her legs together, pursed her lips and sobbed, "Shifulin, don't say anymore..."
Shivlin's mouth twitched, maybe she couldn't find a mirror for a moment, otherwise she really wanted to let Freya see her expression. She was clearly saying that the person she liked would make love with others in a very romantic way, but this veela was so sad that she was crying, but her expression was actually a little yearning, and her skin was flushed with an ambiguous pink.
Although she knew that the Veela was broken, every time she used the Veela, she would refresh her knowledge - even if the heroine in her fantasy was not herself, the Veela would still get excited!
She had originally intended to use this method to make the Veela feel sick, but now it seemed that it only increased the Veela's spellcasting materials...
"Xueyin, you haven't given up yet?" An Nan said with a smile: "No matter what you do, you can only increase the favorability of the Veela towards that guy. When he put the ring on the Veela, the favorability of the Veela was already locked."
"But that was the ring Huoxin prepared for herself!" Shifulin said unhappily, "Why should I be so moved by that?"
Freya held her ring tightly and said weakly, "But he also gave me the sword of love..."
"Don't you think about how many magic spirits you gave him? He only gave one in return!"
"I am happy when I give him a gift, and I am also happy when he gives me a gift. This is double the happiness!"
Freya summoned the Sword of Love Spirit, and all her sorrows vanished at that moment. She said with longing: "Now that he has returned to reality, he might come to the Blood Moon to find me... We will be able to meet soon!"
Shiffrin held her head and bent her body backward into an artistic pose like an arch. Only by twisting her body in this way could she relieve her headache.
The little bat's voice was trembling: "It's obviously none of my business, why am I the only one who got hurt... Ziyuan, Heiya, don't you feel unhappy?!"
"I'm fine." An Nan put his hands behind his waist and smiled proudly, "Anyway, I've already got the first kiss of the future supreme master of magic!"
"Why should I be unhappy?" Tamashi said calmly, "Everyone has his own obsession and beliefs. I can physically destroy my enemies, but I will not question other people's obsession."
Everyone looked at Tamashi and thought that this heavy-armored Black Crow might be the most competitive player among them. But it was not a big problem, because the first rival Black Crow had to deal with was not them, but the sword lady who had almost no flaws except for her strong possessiveness.
"Alright, alright, let's continue exploring." Shivlin recovered her breath and said unhappily, "They can be promoted to demigods and enter Hell at any time, but we are not even legends yet. I wonder how you can catch up with them."
"Why can't I catch up?"
An Nan asked curiously, "Even if he is promoted to a demigod, as long as he does not surrender to the Kingdom of Heaven and become an angel, he can only wander around the land of the Six Kingdoms. Apart from that, he can't go anywhere else."
Shivlin was startled and murmured, "Yeah. Strange, why did I feel that you couldn't catch up with him just now?"
"It's probably because of the Stairway of Dreams." Tamashi glanced at the fantastic colors around him, like smoke and fog. "Everything is in chaos here, and my spirit may be affected."
They were on an ivory-white staircase. Although it was called a staircase, its area was too large, almost equivalent to the white ground. Even if they flew at full speed, it would take a minute to reach the edge, and then they could find the stairs to the next level.
It sounds simple, wouldn't it be fine if you just flew over there? But the biggest threat to the Dream Stairs came from the colorful fog that lingered around. The higher you went, the denser the fog became. If you dared to fly five meters above the ground, you would crash directly into the fog.
The fog will pull the warlock's consciousness into a dream with many restrictive affixes. The warlock must defeat the enemies inside to obtain the loot in the fog - yes, the fog is actually an alienated version of a dream bubble.
It stands to reason that the Sanctuary Magician should be able to quickly adapt to this new map that is not much different from the old version. However, because the Dream Stairs was created too recently, all links are unstable, so there are all kinds of accidents, such as the sudden appearance of fog, or the difficulty of the fog suddenly becoming outrageous.
More importantly, the magician can return to reality at any time in the fantasy bubble, but it takes time to count down. However, if he is pulled into the phantom fog, the magician cannot return to reality unless the fog is completely eliminated.
If the warlock is defeated by the fog, his soul will even be completely swallowed by the fog!
In other words, the magician no longer has the privilege of leaving the Dream Stairs due to serious injuries, and once he fails, he may die completely!
In addition, the Dream Stairs also have problems such as time disorder and the speed of mana recovery being sometimes fast and sometimes slow. Sometimes, after exploring the Dream Stairs for ten hours, only one minute has passed in reality; and the reverse situation is also very common.
Due to various factors, most sanctuary magicians are unwilling to explore the unstable Dream Stairs. Only those who are extremely bold, confident in their own strength, and unable to wait will take risks.
Freya and her friends were just like that. After all, no matter how difficult the Illusion Mist was, they could still clear it as a team of four. On the contrary, the waiting was unbearable for them. Except for Annan and Shivlin who were satisfied with their current strength, Tamashi and Freya were eager to be promoted to Legendary immediately.
Even if it's just to shorten the distance... Even if it's just to get a little closer...
At least next time we meet, I can stand beside you confidently.
Push the red-haired swordsman aside.
Freya and the others calmed down and continued to explore the Stairway of Dreams.
But after working together to digest the fog, the sorceresses looked at each other. Shivlin said, "Is your secret poison also..."
"Yeah." An Nan's face looked a little ugly: "The secret poison of the Lost Dream has lost its effect."
Just now, they found that the color-fading dream was completely ineffective and could not be converted into the illusion power. This secret poison was naturally known from the copy of Ash's diary. Although they had never seen it in person, Ash's credibility outside of emotions was very high, so they were directly infected with this secret poison.
Even though the Far Abyss Space was ended and the Ladder of Dreams was born, the Secret Poison of the Colorless Dream did not disappear, which means that one can still escape from the Source Angel's dream to the Ruby Mountain through the method of "awakening from a dream". Now the Secret Poison is ineffective, obviously because the Source Angel has completely fallen, making the Secret Poison no longer feasible.
"What should we do..." Freya said with a sad face, "The Colorless Dream is no longer usable, so how can we climb the Ruby Mountain?"
Shivlin said: "Raise the level of magic to the legendary level?"
"I'm so stupid, it will take me ten years to reach the next level!" Veela bit her lower lip, "By that time, I won't know how many children Ash will have..."
Shit, if other psions knew you could reach Legendary level in ten years, they would probably all want to convert themselves to Veela.
But Shivlin was more curious about another point: "Can't a Sanctuary magician have children?"
"I hope to be in the best condition... well." Freya's eyes sparkled, full of longing: "He is a legend, so I must at least be a legend, right? It would be best if I could be a demigod, or a god master. If I could become the supreme master of magic..."
If there was a ranking list of "Outrageous Reasons for Becoming the Supreme Magician" in this world, the reason of being a Veela would definitely be number one without a doubt, the little bat thought.
"Apart from improving our magic realm, we really have no other options." An Nan pondered, "Although I asked Gospel that the Dream Stairs also has a path to the origin of Ruby Mountain, Gospel only knows that "Ruby Mountain is at the top of the Dream Stairs" and no more information."
It is almost easy to guess that Ruby Mountain is at the top of the Dream Stairs. The problem is that the Dream Stairs extends infinitely, and the road is thick with fog. It is extremely difficult to climb several steps in an ordinary sanctuary, let alone climb all the Dream Stairs.
Freya and the others had also seen the secret poison of the golden fish and the secret poison of the seven-colored tail, and knew that the Road of Origin was definitely not a special area that could be reached by normal means. All the information on the paper was a puzzle. Before the answer was solved, any effort would be in vain.
So they knew they were doomed - they were the first generation of explorers of the Stairway to Dreams, without any legacy information to discover and unable to follow the path taken by their predecessors.
If they want to follow the path of origin, they must discover new secret poisons from scratch and become pioneers for future generations to pursue!
This task is so difficult that it makes one's scalp numb. It is better to study the realm of magic honestly. At least there is hope that it can be achieved. As long as the only correct direction is not found in the research of secret poisons, it will be an abyss that one will throw his whole life into.
You know, they were promoted so smoothly before, all thanks to Ash's help, but this time even Ash can't help them.
Just when the sorceresses grew discouraged and fell silent, the Stairs of Dreams suddenly rumbled and shook. Countless golden threads connected by stars dripped from the sky above the mist and pierced through the white stairs, as if to sew the sky and the earth together.
Freya and the others were not surprised, because the Dream Ladder was not stable yet, so new rules were often added. Although there were risks, there might be unexpected gains. For example, when the Soul Law infiltrated, Annan not only stole part of the inheritance of the Ghost Prophet, but also constructed the Soul Gun Technique compound miracle "One Shot into the Soul" with the help of the Void Realm!
This is also the advantage of trying the new version in advance. There are dangers and opportunities everywhere.
"Soul? Heart? No, this is... longing."
Shivlin touched the golden thread and sniffed it: "This is the smell of longing... But is there a law of longing in this world?"
The others were thinking about how to make use of this opportunity, but the opportunity soon came to them - as the golden thread tightened, a gap appeared in the white earth, revealing the world hidden underneath!
Can the Dream Stairs be destroyed?!
Freya and the other three looked at each other in bewilderment. They had all tried to attack the stairs with all their strength, but not even a trace was left. Naturally, they had never thought of exploring under the stairs. But now it seemed that there were still areas of the Dream Stairs that they could not explore.
So, are they going in?
The four of them looked at each other, and as Freya and Tamashi nodded, the reluctant Annan and the hesitant Shivlin had no choice but to follow. Black Crow could not care, but the Veela... they couldn't be at ease.
At this time, the gap had begun to shrink, and without more time to think, the magicians jumped in directly. However, the long fall they imagined did not happen. It was as if they jumped from the spot and landed back to the ground very easily.
What appeared before them was still a long staircase.
It was just different from before. Not only was there no phantom fog in front of me, but the whole world had turned into reverse colors. It wasn't a loss of color, but a reversed color where black turned to white and red turned to blue. If the dream staircase was colorful, then this place was uncomfortable.
"Look down." Shiffrin said.
They looked down and saw the ground was like a mirror, reflecting a mirrored world with opposite colors - they saw a reversed version of themselves appearing on the stairs of dreams.
"If this is the Anti-Color Stairs, then the Anti-Color Stairs and the Dream Stairs are mirror images of each other. When we jump in, it's equivalent to swapping positions with the Anti-Color mirror image." An Nan squatted down, and the Anti-Color An Nan on the other side of the mirror also squatted down: "The biggest difference between the Anti-Color Stairs and the Dream Stairs is that there is no phantom fog blocking our progress, and..."
They all raised their heads and looked at the mountain at the end of the stairs, which was shining with red light.
"We can climb directly to Ruby Mountain from here!" Shivlin murmured, "We have found the origin of the Stairs of Dreams!"
