"Emperor’s Son, according to the intelligence from Xuan Luo and Qing Deng, they all encountered different incidents in this dream realm."

"Furthermore, they were all annihilated in the third act of the dream realm; even Elder Nan Tian of the Southern Border Academy was no exception."

"The only clue is the phantom of an Azure Lotus. This isn’t enough to confirm whether this vast dream realm indeed belongs to Azure Lotus Heaven Lord..."

...

On a cloud summit that pierced the heavens, with waterfalls cascading down, Dragon Sun Emperor’s Child East Supreme Saint listened as Mou Liang Great Saint reported on the progress of conquering the dream realm. A glint of sharpness flashed through his purple-gold dragon eyes.

An Azure Lotus... then it truly might be the dream realm of Azure Lotus Heaven Lord.

Azure Lotus Heaven Lord was the fourth Great Emperor of the Human Race!

Legend has it that he was the reincarnation of the Eternal Azure Lotus, born on Emperor Lining Mountain in the Southern Border of the Divine Continent.

The moment he was born, divine phenomena manifested: Azure Lotuses sprouted from the earth, vast purple clouds billowed, and dragons and phoenixes appeared in celebration.

Because of this, he was taken as a closed-door disciple by the Elder of the Southern Border Academy at the time. He was meticulously nurtured.

Battling Heavenly Talents, romancing beauties, defying former Saints, seizing Destiny, suppressing the Demon Clan’s fortunes...

Along the way, Azure Lotus Heaven Lord experienced smooth sailing, practically bulldozing everything in his path, unmatched in battle.

He even managed to forcibly overcome a difference in standing and crush the Demon Clan’s Destiny of that era, shocking the world.

Azure Lotus Heaven Lord achieved his Great Emperor status through the Wood Tao, pushing the Wood Tao to its ultimate state of proliferation.

The Painting Tao, too, was born from his hands, created by him.

...

"Azure Lotus Heaven Lord is known for his Infinite Immortal Nuance and long Life Span. Could it be him?"

East Supreme Saint couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

As he pondered, a mottled black light began to slowly spread around him, effortlessly shattering the space.

The space seemed like a cracking mirror, fractured but not entirely broken.

Witnessing this scene, especially the mottled black light spreading around East Supreme Saint, Mou Liang Great Saint was secretly alarmed:

Truly worthy of being an Emperor’s Son who has never fallen out of the top two rankings. If it weren’t for the immense threat posed by the Demon Clan’s Xuan Guangqiao, such an individual would likely not have emerged in this era.

East Supreme Saint had a tall, slender build, his features sharply defined and handsome, with an air of resolute determination in his eyes.

His eyes were deep and piercing, giving him a commanding presence that was not easily slighted.

Under the flickering, mottled black light, he appeared even more profound and enigmatic.

This inevitably reminded Mou Liang Great Saint of the apocryphal tales woven by the common folk about Dragon Sun Emperor...

Mou Liang Great Saint lowered his gaze, quickly extinguishing any disrespectful thoughts.

HUFF.

After a period equivalent to half a quarter of an hour, East Supreme Saint exhaled a breath of turbid air.

He took out two bamboo and wood scrolls from his chest, his gaze deep as he said, "These scrolls contain the cultivation methods for the Dream Tao from the first to the third level. Although quite rudimentary and with significant side effects, they are still partial results of our days spent conquering the mysterious dream realm."

"Mou Liang Great Saint, you are reputed to be astoundingly clever. Even amongst those in the Heavenly Palace, your mastery of the Wisdom Tao is among the top ranks."

"My constitution is rather special. Even if there are mistakes or omissions, I can pay a certain price to return to a perfect state."

"I need you to double-check them for me for any mistakes or omissions. I intend to personally cultivate this Dream Tao method."

East Supreme Saint spoke calmly, his handsome face remaining impassive.

But Mou Liang Great Saint couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.

East Supreme Saint spoke lightly, but the risks involved were immense!

After all, no one knows what cultivating the Dream Tao actually entails. What if something went awry, such as a ’Tao Marks’ injury? What then? You are the supreme leader of the Human Race. Why personally risk cultivating this dangerous Dream Tao method, just to create a safe and reliable cultivation technique? Wouldn’t it be better to let others cultivate this immature Dream Tao method, using them as disposable pawns?

However, Mou Liang Great Saint was all too aware of Dragon Sun Emperor’s temperament. East Supreme Saint, who inherited Dragon Sun Emperor’s will, shared a similar disposition.

He abandoned the thought of persuading East Supreme Saint to find others to serve as disposable test subjects.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up; he considered taking the risk and cultivating the Dream Tao method himself.

"Alas... Emperor’s Son, I understand," Mou Liang Great Saint sighed lightly.

Yet his heart was also heavy, and he thought to himself: The threat of the Demon Clan’s Destiny, Xuan Guangqiao, is so great that even the Emperor’s Son can no longer remain idle... 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Hahaha, why bother with such a somber expression?" East Supreme Saint laughed heartily, instantly dispelling the heavy atmosphere. He clapped Mou Liang Great Saint on the shoulder in a gesture of closeness.

East Supreme Saint gazed into the distance, as if he could see the White Red Heaven, and said, "I’ll have you to review it for me, won’t I? Oh, and by the way, don’t think of secretly practicing this Dream Tao method. I won’t be giving you the Dream Tao primer for it."

"Once I master the Dream Tao method, I plan to personally visit that mysterious dream realm, the one suspected to be Azure Lotus Heaven Lord’s dream realm."

"I estimate that once this dream realm is successfully conquered, we will very likely obtain a cultivation method that allows direct progression to the Saint Level."

"Furthermore, you all must also hurry in the search for the nine Great Dream Seeds. We must determine the true Human Race Destiny from among these nine seeds as soon as possible!"

"Usually, the Demon Clan’s Destiny grows faster than the Human Race Destiny. But this time, I want to change that situation and stifle the Demon Clan’s Xuan Guangqiao Destiny early on."

...

As East Supreme Saint listed his plans and goals, Mou Liang Great Saint felt his spirit surge.

After East Supreme Saint finished speaking, Mou Liang Great Saint raised his questions:
