Chapter Twenty-Three: The Nightmare Strikes

"Roar—"

There was a terrible scream outside the dormitory door, Wang Xiaomeng screamed in fright, and almost rolled out of bed.

Yu Qing stood in the center of the evil warding array like a great enemy, she was needed to guard it here, she had already seen the strength of the nightmare in the afternoon, it was indeed very strong, but she was confident that she could rely on the evil warding array to fight against it.

It was already dark outside the window, and there was no light in sight. Yuqing found that something was wrong, unless there was a power outage in the school, it was impossible not to see the lights at all, and there was another dormitory opposite the window, and now it was impossible to see its outline!

She was shocked, could it be that she had entered the world of nightmares before she knew it?

Is this evil warding array still effective?

Yuqing's thoughts were suddenly confused, and she looked out the window again, making sure that she didn't see any lights, and she couldn't hear anything other than bedroom 404. This is completely different from usual, the freshmen living next door will generally make a lot of noise and shout that they are tired from military training today, and downstairs is the dormitory of the senior sisters, and they will definitely be shouting and discussing Korean dramas. And now, I can't hear a sound at all!

Wang Xiaomeng hadn't noticed anything wrong yet, he wrapped himself in a quilt and only showed his head outside, Murong Yu and Xia Yun huddled together, looking at Yuqing.

"Heaven and earth are righteous, gather my body!"

Yu Qing closed her eyes and began to read, every time she read it, she felt like an aftersound, and Murong Yu and Wang Xiaomeng could hear the echo of Yu Qing's words.

"Eliminate demons and defend the way, and the true martial arts will last forever!"

The wind blew inexplicably in the bedroom, causing the curtains to rattle.

"Evil Array, up!"

Wang Xiaomeng had the courage to drill from the quilt and found that the spell drawn on the ground actually began to move, constantly changing its position and forming different shapes.

There was also a cloud of golden light floating in the air, slowly moving around Yu Qing, and it was obvious that a ball of something was rapidly expanding outward from the center of Yu Qing's stand, wrapping the entire bedroom like a soap bubble, and its surface also appeared with a bright brilliance, which could be described as Ambilight.

Murong Yu was also stunned, this special effect, which only exists in movies, can actually become a reality!

The figure in the center of the formation was surrounded by a cloud of golden light, the movements of her hands kept changing, and her mouth was also whispering scriptures, and the charms on the ground changed faster and faster, and finally merged into one big charm.

Wang Xiaoduo and Murong Yu didn't know what this charm meant, and their curiosity became more and more intense, and they poked their heads out of the bed to observe Yuqing's situation, but fortunately, they hadn't found any danger yet.

Little did they know that the entire dormitory had long since been moved by the nightmare to the dream realm it controlled.

Yu Qing didn't pierce this truth, because she felt that she might be able to use the power of the evil array to break this space and return to the original 404 bedroom.

"Hum—"

A loud muffled noise startled everyone, and Xia Yun also woke up from his coma, looking at the other three with confused eyes.

Yu Qing stood still with his feet, made a handprint with his hands, a ball of golden light dispersed, and the evil array began to show its true body, and the enchantment like a heavenly dome was glowing with golden light, and the enchantment that had been hit hard just now appeared on the lines like water waves, spreading out from the middle to all around, and it couldn't be calm for a long time.

The golden light in Yu Qing's hand became more and more vigorous, and it was transmitted to the enchantment, accelerating the rotation of the surface of the enchantment, and quickly smoothing out the ripples caused by the attack.

"Whew—it's dangerous!"

Yu Qing exhaled a long breath, the formation had not yet been fully completed, the defensive ability of the enchantment was very limited, and the nightmare's unexpected attack almost ruined half of her day's efforts. Fortunately, she reacted quickly, holding the remaining Yellow Dragon Wood in the palm of her hand in a very short period of time, and burned it into ashes with Dao power, so that the Yellow Dragon Wood's masculine righteousness radiated and made up for the energy lost by the heavy damage to the enchantment.

I was secretly glad in my heart, Xia Yun's string of beads helped the most, fortunately she didn't buy a counterfeit, if it was an ordinary pear bracelet pretending to be Huanglongmu, I'm afraid the enchantment would have been broken a long time ago.

Yu Qing didn't dare to let up, she predicted that the Nightmare would definitely launch a second wave of attacks if it didn't succeed.

Except for the sound of a few people's breathing and nervous heartbeats, it was exceptionally quiet. No one dared to speak, for fear of disturbing Yuqing's mind, and quietly waited for the nightmare's second attack.

However, after waiting for about ten minutes, the expected muffled sound did not come, and there were no energy fluctuations on the barrier. Yu Qing couldn't figure out what kind of conspiracy the nightmare was playing, I don't know if it wanted to get away with it or if she had given up, she still continued to input energy into the evil spirit-warding array, Yu Qing felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and it seemed that she couldn't last long.

Yu Qing realized the true purpose of the nightmare, it was waiting for its power to run out, and then it would be able to break the barrier effortlessly, and the final result could be imagined.

She quickly withdrew her hand, keeping the Evil Wardring on the defensive, trying to lure out the nightmare by deliberately showing weakness.

The cunning nightmare still didn't attack, it hid after the first attack, and Yu Qing couldn't feel its position, so she could only guess that it was still lurking nearby and didn't leave.

"Knock-knock-"

Other voices actually sounded in the bedroom, and Murong Yu was once again so frightened that he hid in the corner of the bed, covering his head with a quilt and shivering.

"What sound?" Wang Xiaomeng asked.

Xia Yun remembered something, and suddenly realized: "It's my wardrobe, I put the cat in it today, and I couldn't find a suitable place for it to sleep for a while, so I put clothes in the wardrobe and made a nest for it..."

"Meow—"

Then there was the sound of claws scratching the wood, and Yuqing's scalp tingled when he heard it.

"Xia Yun, hurry up and release it, if it goes on like this, I will have goosebumps to the ground!" Yu Qing said quickly.

Since she was a child, she has been particularly sensitive to such unusually sharp sounds, especially the harsh sound like glass cutting across metal surfaces, which she finds extremely uncomfortable.

Xia Yun sat on the bed and opened the wardrobe with one foot, and a pure black cat walked out with small steps, calmly and calmly crossed Yuqing, as if it could understand the formation on the ground, carefully dodged the place with the charm, and climbed onto Xia Yun's bed.

Murong Yu was stunned when he saw this scene, he had experienced so many strange things in the past few days, but this cat that was as conscious as a human was the first time he had seen it.

"Xia Yun, what is the origin of your cat?" Yuqing asked.

"This is the black cat that rescued me from the nightmare space last night, do you think it's mighty?" Xia Yun held Obsidian's paw and beckoned to Yu Qing, but Obsidian looked at Yu Qing with an innocent expression, but an imperceptible light flashed in his eyes.

And Yuqing just captured this point.

This cat is definitely not simple!
