Chapter 51: The Great Labyrinth V
Asmodeus's dream was gone, and Shen Yan squatted on the ground and giggled.
Shit Levistus!
It sounds nice, as long as I swear revenge on Asmodeurs after I get out of trouble. At that time, not to mention Sha'er, who had already formed an alliance with him, Shanni and Shen Yan, who were not even human, believed it. After all, I've been locked up for an infinite amount of time, and I can't masturbate, and the hatred must be infinite!
However...... I didn't even see the main body, and a dream abused him into a dog, a dirt dog with a tail between it! What a chicken shame!
Shen Yan would never say that he was also scared and stiffened just now. But there is no way, it's not that he doesn't have enough guts, but that the accumulation is too poor. It is normal for people to have a visceral sense of fear when faced with a behemoth.
If Shen Yan's energy sum is a firefly, then Asmodeurs's dream energy sum is a whole summer.
It's too bad, the mountains are up, and there is no point in comparison.
But Shen Yan was very happy, and there was a little sadness in his happiness, because this was a place of dreams.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

A normal person is thrown into the big labyrinth of the Lady of the Ring City, and the specific process should be like this-
He must first adapt to loneliness, overcome loneliness, and enjoy loneliness; When he can prove that he has supplies the size of a mountain with him, and that he will not starve or die of thirst, he will enter the second stage. Have enough strength and be able to defeat (or flee) the sand sculptures you encounter along the way, and of course, pick up some loot left by your predecessor.
The next step is to defeat the King of Kings and Rats, cross the impossible fairy bridge, arrive at the lake where the portals converge, enter the unspeakable Forest of Thorns, and finally stand in front of the puzzle solver Night Witch and listen to her ask that timeless and classic question:
"What can change the essence of a man?"
The available answers are "Love", "Hate", "Regret", "Power", "Greed", "Death", "Years", ...... Wait, it's a deep philosophical question - the Night Witch has always felt that she is in love with the Lady, so she is always trying to free the Lady from the cage around the city. Just as she fell in love with Anonymous, helping her separate her mortal essence and make her immortal......
Anonymous's answer was very flattering, he said "It's you, Rari, it's you who changed my essence", a correct and affectionate answer.
This question can be left unanswered, because there is no right answer. It is also possible to answer "Nothing" - nothing can change the essence of a man......
Those who answer "rice green liquid" will be directly broken into thousands of pieces! Do you really think that the Night Witch can't lift the knife?
But Shen Yan doesn't use any of these!
Because it's a place of dreams.
Let's start with what is the aftermath of dreams: the aftermath of dreams is the world of remnants of dreams—as we said earlier, the power and will of God are so powerful that an unintentional look or thought can rewrite the mind of mortals. And divine power is the most high-level power, even at the level of Corellon, it is not absolutely controllable, and mistakes are always inevitable.
And the most serious of these is dreams.
Dreams are blurry, indulgent, and out of control, yet the gods need to dream, both subjectively and objectively. Some of the things and powers that can be created in dreams cannot be controlled or taken back, and these things and powers are transformed in dreams and eventually become the source of nightmares.
The gods have a very poor resistance to their dreams, and there have been examples of their bodies being replaced by their own nightmare counterattacks.
It all keeps happening...... Until the lady held aloft the ring city, and then created the Great Labyrinth.
All gods and divine creatures can put their dreams into the Great Labyrinth. They need not be afraid of being taken advantage of by the lady, because the lady is eternally neutral; There is no need to worry about the leakage of that trace of power, so the lady is the supreme god and will definitely not look down on it. And dreams can never escape the Great Labyrinth, nor can they become nightmares—because every few million years, the Lady cleans them up.
And for millions of years, even if a nightmare is born, it can be weak.
Since then, divine beings have been able to dream safely.
No one mentions it, it's like a water purification benefit...... Not to say, but it's always there.
But when Shen Yan connected everything in front of him with the "dream room" that Penny had told him, he found that this ...... It is a rich inheritance left to him by his mother.
He didn't come to walk the labyrinth, but to inherit the family property.
*****
It's okay to have "less" strength, but "less" is relative to the Lady of the City.
For Shen Yan, the power accumulated here over tens of millions of years is trillions of times that of his body!
Secondly, this part of the power is left by purely divine beings and gods - because of their own divine nature, it is extremely troublesome to absorb and transform! It's like countless metal wreckage piled together, what circuit boards, fragments of battleships, otaku figures...... There's a whole bunch of garbage in all sorts of messes, and it's better to redo it than to recycle it.
These are like chicken ribs to anyone in the whole universe, and there are only three people in the whole universe who can successfully transform them into non-attribute sub-divine powers—Madame, Penny, and Shen Yan.
And the tool of transformation was the spell that Shen Yan had originally obtained—the "Ember Burning Technique".
It's not like the place where the gods died, where the divine power stored there is just as great, but it's a wrestling. Shen Yan needs to absorb slowly, and continue to increase the absorption speed as the balance of power between the two sides changes, and the overall time will be unknown...... Even if the other party cooperates, it can't work.
And the Dream Rest is different, every force here is not powerful. Shen Yan couldn't beat the main body, but there was still no problem with dealing with the remnants of the dream.
The power of the lady's body cannot be inherited, because it carries the ultimate attribute of the universe, "annihilation". "One Two Three Wantons" didn't believe it, and took a bite on it, and then they became neither human nor ghostly.
But the dream room is different, for others it is accumulation, and for Shen Yan it is the last step of the upward leap. So that he can leap over the accumulation time of 10,000 years and millions of years, and after absorbing it, he doesn't have to look at anyone's face...... That's why I say that I pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

"Teacher."
Shen Yan lowered his head and stretched out his head, covering the wide, thorny eyes.
"Stop having nightmares about the temple, it's all over."
Shen Yan knelt down on one knee, pressed his hands on the hilt of the sword that was stuck in Atwood's chest, and bowed his head in prayer. Wisps of ash flew out of Atwood's body, flowed towards Shen Yan, and finally returned to nothingness.
And the terrifying wounds on Shen Yan's body were also closing one by one.
After a while, Shen Yan stood up with the "Sword of the Lake Girl" in his hand, and looked in the other direction.
"Morgan Monash, it's time for you to understand that the boss can't betray – not even in a dream!"
