Chapter 220: Fear
The dimension of dreams is a scattered and ethereal dimension, which is dependent on the main world and exists, and is a dimension that is unconsciously linked and constructed by the life forms of the whole universe.
As its name suggests, this dimension is complex and confusing, but can be roughly divided into the lower and higher strata.
The lower astral layer is in the outer layer of the dream dimension, and ordinary people's dream mapping will be in this place. The High Planet is located in the center and has complex dimensional and spatial properties, and the Nightmare Realm is the most dangerous place among them.
Although the extra dimensions are called pocket universes, many of them are even much larger than the main universe. No one in the Dream Dimension knows exactly how big it is, only that there will be a convergence point in a galaxy, and there will even be a fault space at the convergence point of two galaxies that are far apart.
In other words, the Nightmare King is not the only lord of the Dream Dimension, which determines that he is not half a star away from the first-level demon god of Setolak, who dominates the Crimson Universe.
After Li Mo and his party carried out the astral projection, they quickly came to the periphery of the Nightmare Realm through the lower star layer and the upper star layer in turn.
It is an irregular area with a diameter of 3,000 kilometers, shrouded in a large amount of thick and pale fog, although it looks a little small, but there is a honeycomb-like composite space inside, coupled with the appearance of the world from time to time, the complexity is unimaginable.
The Queen of Dreams had already led the two demons to wait at the predetermined location.
One of the two demons standing behind her was a nightmare elf, like a floating cloud of black smoke. The other was a strong hellish archdemon with long horns with red skin and blood-red flames in his eyes.
Because Li Mo had communicated in advance, the two sides did not have hostility, but just looked at each other with a little vigilance.
"OK, relax, everybody." Li Mo clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention, "We have the same goal this time, so we must cooperate sincerely." A little bit upfront. The Queen of Dreams and I have signed a pact that prefers severe punishment, so we don't need to guard against each other this time. β
The Queen of Dreams also smiled and said, "If this time is successful, I will prepare a big gift for you." β
Strange nodded and didn't speak, they wanted to end this matter sooner than any gift.
After assigning each area, Li Mo and his party of five, together with the two powerful demons brought by the Dream Queen, entered the Nightmare Realm from eight different directions.
The space of the Nightmare Realm was really complicated, and after Li Mo entered, he found that he had come to a desolate canyon.
Although the visibility was less than 50 meters under the shroud of fog, Li Mo's powerful spatial sensing ability still noticed the abnormality, and this canyon actually had a reverse projection above, which meant that there was also a Li Mo looking up and looking down above.
The canyon is deep and desolate, with a granular black sand floor undulating and potholed with strange boulders like melted plastic, and white moisture accumulating and dissipating on the ground.
Some scientists in Germany have found that fear has a smell, and the human body can secrete this pheromone through the skin, thereby transmitting fear to those around it.
And as soon as he came here, although it was a soul state, Li Mo still smelled a dry and cold, somewhat faint smell of mothballs, and his heart immediately beat wildly for a while.
The soul protection formation behind his head suddenly flashed with golden light, and this feeling disappeared.
This is the realm of nightmares, formed by the fear of the collective life consciousness, as soon as the soul of ordinary people enters here, they will unconsciously begin to be afraid, and the soul shock will exude the power of fear, and many demons live on this power.
Not long after moving forward, Li Mo's eyes lit up, and 8 meters in front of him, a strange and terrifying plant appeared on the desolate ground, like a man-eating flower in Plant vs. Zombie, chirping with a big mouth full of fangs, and licking it with a huge tongue from time to time, as if he was eating something.
"Dream Eater!" Li Mo stretched out his tentacles with a smile, this rare plant has high medicinal value as long as it is brought out.
However, when its tentacles touched the plant, with a pop, the dream-eating grass turned into a cloud of white smoke and disappeared.
Li Mo's face darkened, and it turned out to be a fake body.
The reason why dream-eating grass is expensive is because it has strange phasing properties, and can be stored in several locations at the same time, making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake.
Shaking his head, Li Mo decided to give up the search, it was better to get down to business first.
The reason why he is willing to invest so much money and energy to help the Dream Queen ascend to the throne is because of the irreconcilable conflict with the Nightmare King, and the other is the stimulation he received in the Demon Bazaar.
Coming out of the lava demon, Li Mo also walked around the market for a while, and what he saw and heard opened his eyes.
Each pocket universe has its own unique output of extra dimensions. In contrast, the Overworld Universe is a magically barren wasteland.
If he wants to vigorously develop his alchemy laboratory, these magical materials are indispensable.
Killing a lot to get souls was certainly not something he would do. Therefore, even if he is disgusted by the dimensional demon god, it is inevitable that he will enter other dimensions to obtain supplies in the future.
He remembered the stories he had seen about powerful mages developing their forces in the multiverse in order to obtain supplies to help him improve his magical cultivation.
This gave him some inspiration, and Dream Dimension was the first test subject.
Thinking of this, Li Mo decided to speed up the search, quickly floated, and relied on spatial sensing to accelerate towards the end of the canyon.
And just as he flew over the ground, an animal the size of a mouse with eyes and tongue swooped out of the sand.
It's a type of Nightmare Beast in the Nightmare Realm, created by the same fear of living beings. Just as the little nightmare beast was looking around, a large mouth suddenly appeared and swallowed it like lightning, and another dream-eating plant began to chirp beautifully.
The fog continued to break through, and Li Mo's speed became faster and faster, and he rushed out of this canyon after about ten minutes.
The fog seemed to have lightened a little, and his eyes suddenly opened up, and Li Mo looked at the situation in front of him, and suddenly felt a little big.
In front of me is a folding space, and the strange stone buildings form an endless city, and the sky, underground, and left and right sides are full of such urban buildings, just like the feeling of mirror space.
The Dream Queen had mentioned it to him, the Endless Cage, the most annoying place in the Nightmare Realm.
There are no boundaries here, and the exit of the space may be in a corner, or in the basement of a room, and you can't leave until you find it.
The good thing is that there are countless exits to the space, which can disappear at any time or appear at any time, and the only way to do this is to try your luck.
As for why it's called the Endless Cage?
Li Mo soon knew that as soon as he entered this desolate and broken city, a human soul appeared on the street.
It was a chubby middle-aged woman, and she screamed loudly as if she was surrounded by monsters, and her face was slightly distorted with fear.
Streams of green air continued to emerge from her soul, ethereal into the void, and those were the power of fear.
Li Mo was a little helpless, he had nothing to do about this situation. Fortunately, this woman's soul screamed for a while and then disappeared, and Li Mo knew that she had woken up from the nightmare.
There are more and more of these souls along the way, and they become denser and denser, providing the power of fear like batteries, and when they are drained, they will quickly leave until the next time they enter the nightmare.
βshitοΌβ What he saw and heard really made Li Mo a little unhappy, and after scolding, he quickly relied on a powerful spatial sensing to search for his exit.
Li Moyi's supersonic flight speed hovered over the city and soon got lost. However, to his surprise, there was not a single exit.
Half an hour later, Li Mo stopped and sat cross-legged on top of a 100-meter-high building.
He sensed that something was wrong, according to the Dream Queen, there were a lot of spatial exits here, but after searching such a wide area, he didn't find one.
There are only two possibilities for this to happen, one is that the Queen of Nights has deceived him, and the other is that the Lord of Nightmares has found out and wants to trap him here!
β¦
Strange finds himself in a cavern, which he'd explored before, and knows that the honeycomb structure of the Nightmare Realm is constantly changing, so it's no surprise.
There was a layer of water under the cave, barely any light, and the sound of dripping water from the stalactites was clearly audible in the silent space, but there seemed to be a whisper of resentment echoing in the ears.
Strange frowned, this time it seemed to be different from before, there were no endless nightmare monsters, and there were no terrifying monsters roaming around, did he want to rely on this space to trap himself?
The Nightmare King is too presumptuous!
At this moment, he suddenly felt something, waved his hand and crossed it to make a spell handprint, and pushed his right hand forward, and a blazing light instantly released from the tip of his hand, illuminating the entire cave.
The darkness was like a monster trying to bite him, but it began to be slowly forced back in the light, gradually retreating into the depths of the cave, as if something hovered in the darkness, staring at him viciously.
"Who's there!" After Strange shouted a loud word, he began to fly along the cavern with the power of the levitating cloak.
But he soon had to fall to the ground, as the space began to cramp and gradually only allowed one person to pass through.
Strange didn't hesitate and continued walking. In the crooked passage, he hallucinated that the heavy walls seemed to be about to press down on him.
There seems to be no end to the future...
Half an hour later,
Even though the spell light source in his hand was still strong, Strange had already developed a sense of depression in his heart.
β¦
Johnny Blazer enters a city of impression projections, and he frowns, the most annoying New York.
On the streets, subway stations, there are crowds of people everywhere. The sprawling city is packed up like a can of sardines.
All pedestrians, young and old, all had robotic and indifferent faces, numbly looking ahead and walking, as if Johnny could not be seen at all. Blaze.
He reached out and slid through the bodies of the pedestrians next to him as if through the mist.
"Hallucinations?" Johnny Blazer snorted contemptuously and walked leisurely.
Possessed by Ghost Rider, he was almost immortal, so he didn't have the slightest worry.
Half an hour later,
Johnny Blazer had already begun to get irritable and didn't try to attack his monsters, but everywhere he went, there were crowds of people.
Johnny Blazer, who was already accustomed to solitude, went crazy, and the raging hell flames began to burn all over his body, and soon turned into a ghost rider state.
"Give me death!"
β¦
Wanda the Scarlet Witch enters a vast grassland.
It's night, the sky is a dim star, and the distance is dark and dark and seems to have no end.
Without a hint of the scent of grass,
There is no sound of the wind blowing,
There is no insect chirping,
It's just silence...
The Scarlet Witch flew vigilantly with the help of chaos magic, but to her surprise, there seemed to be no danger here.
Again, half an hour later.
Wanda began to feel a,
Terrible loneliness...
β¦
As soon as Doom enters the realm of nightmares, he finds himself in the middle of the ocean.
The surrounding waters are all blue, there is no seagrass and no fish, and there is an endless underwater abyss underneath.
With a magical breath, he swam towards the hazy surface of the sea, where there was some light source.
Also half an hour later, Doom gave up.
He sensed the anomaly in this space, and simply cleared his mind and began to think of a way to solve it.
He suddenly had a feeling that this place was like his own life, that hope was just a phantom, and that effort was just a more desperate struggle.
The sea is getting farther and farther away,
The dim light source is getting dimmer,
Doom sank into the endless abyss...
β¦
In the depths of Nightmare Country,
Next to a cave with a diameter of 2,000 meters and endless stairs descending, countless dreaddemons stood densely, chanting vicious incantations in a terrible voice, and the grand sound that would break people's souls resounded through the heavens and the earth.
An ancient golden-green crown hovered in the center of the crater, and countless green powers of fear converged towards the center like a whirlpool.
The Queen of Dreams was crucified, demonic blood flowed all over the ground, and her bewitching face had turned pale.
Beside her, the Great Demon of Hell had no breath, and his frightened face was like a melted wax man, like Van Gogh's cry.
The other nightmare elf was trembling and kneeling on the ground, not even daring to lift his head.
"Dear daughter, you have disappointed me so much."
On the tall altar, a rickety green figure said in a hoarse voice: "Although most of my energy is occupied, what is the use of these small human beings. β
"You don't know what fear is..."
