Chapter 2844: Chapter 2839: Dead End

Even if turned into ruins, the Codex still seems to be being strictly enforced.

Truly pierced from head to toe, Fu Qian felt this relatively novel experience while knowingly breaking the law, not eager to lower his altitude.

Just like the previous rule of "no umbrellas," this commotion undoubtedly indicates that the rules are still in effect, even exerting greater force.

In fact, Fu Qian lifted himself to this height along the way, testing this was one of the core objectives.

Although in his view, the test results before him were not good news.

Because here lies a most striking contradiction—Old Master Lu and the others have all fled, yet the Divine Dream remains so stable?

Previously, it was speculated that the tentacles deeply fused with two people might very likely be the foundation of this surviving Divine Dream.

If that’s really the case, their escape would seem like pulling the rug from under the feet, this place should be rapidly collapsing.

So the current situation implies that there seem to be only two possibilities—

First, the judgment is wrong; the old masters and even the tentacles are not the foundation for the existence of this dream.

Thus, a bunch of related speculations would have to be overturned, making the Divine Dream Remnants of the Archipelago even more perplexing.

Second, the judgment is still correct; the old masters didn’t leave but hid even better, making them difficult to find.

At first glance, this second option seems more pleasant, after all, there was a similar experience at the start, and some means had to be used to blast out the hidden tentacle.

Unfortunately, the problem also lies here.

Success and failure both stem from the Codex, and as a specially studied player, Fu Qian remarked that being too professional also seems to have its downsides—

Why is no one on the Archipelago allowed to exceed the height of the White Tower? To demonstrate the majesty of the King of the White Tower?

Indeed, it’s a reason, but in fact, in the Codex, this rule even has a linked content—

[Prohibit any observer from hiding above the White Tower]

...

Yes, the content demonstrating the majesty of the King of the White Tower is not just one rule.

Besides not being allowed to reach the same height, deception is also not permitted.

Furthermore, the number of people who know these two rules should be far more than those aware of the prohibition against wall walking in the laboratory.

Because this is an unequivocal island-wide prohibition, theoretically, everyone should know this principle before entering the island.

Of course, Fu Qian doesn’t think most people would pay much attention to it.

The probability of violation is simply too small.

Even in the past, Bai Jinting clearly wouldn’t climb to the tower’s peak for no reason.

As for the prohibition of concealing oneself, it is even more abstract.

That position wouldn’t have an observer in the first place, so where’s the violation of the prohibition coming from?

Not to mention that a distinction in the punitive mechanism is involved here.

Unlike now, where it’s executed in legal form with real-time feedback,

Previously, the archipelago regarded the Codex as iron law and truly enforced it, but ultimately, the Executor was still human.

In other words, if someone spat on the beach without being discovered, they wouldn’t face Punishment.

So these rules, to most people, are just clichés to hear without concern.

Only players like Fu Qian found it intriguing in its coherence at first glance.

At the last stage of the task, realizing an Observer was present, he gained a deeper Insight—

It’s not merely to demonstrate the King of the White Tower’s majesty, whether attempting to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Divine Beings or avoiding the watchful gaze, it’s an affront to the Superior Being.

Sure enough, seemingly absurd rules often have their reasons.

Even these seemingly meaningless clauses, at this moment, are tools for Fu Qian to find someone.

Lifting his body to this height, on one hand, further verifies the effectiveness of the White Tower Codex, and on the other hand, it means there’s now an Observer here.

No matter what hide-and-seek tricks you’re using, it’s best to surrender quickly now.

Otherwise, everything will return to the previous path, once again entering a time of comparing Blood Bars.

I violated the prohibition and faced legal Punishment, and so will you.

Sss——

Looking down, the fifth invisible needle had already pierced from head to toe through Fu Qian’s body, causing nearly double the trauma compared to the first time.

Yet from the start till now, there was still no movement in the ruins below.

...

Was the judgment truly incorrect, and the Double-headed Human-Demon was not the foundation for the existence of this Divine Dream?

Fu Qian remained in a state of Sovereignty, while the balance rapidly tilted.

This short lapse of stillness obviously could not prove anything.

But even with the intelligence of Old Master Lu and his group, dragged to such a situation, they should be able to see what needs to be done.

Though low in Ranking, the Blood Bar seemed bottomless, engaging in bloodletting torrents with such a foe was undoubtedly unwise.

Either decide to indeed leave, or prepare a big ultimate move with a Forbidden Spell, attempting to utterly smash his bones to dust.

Continue to lie down praying the opponent gives up first?

Anyone familiar with Professor Fu’s style should dare not entertain such a luxury.

As a needle plunged again and again, Fu Qian expressed the sensation of physically breaking through the governor and conception vessels, yet beneath his feet, there was still no movement.

Did they really leave, leaving him alone trapped in this empty Divine Dream? Is this the opponent’s plan?

After all, mistakenly locking onto the dream’s source resulted in being unable to leave here by destroying the Double-headed Human-Demon, while the Divine Dream remained stable.

For most people, this was tantamount to a virtual prison cell—though Fu Qian’s concern wasn’t even about this.

Even without revealing his true form, he still had too many ways to escape on his side.

Such as the "Brilliant Tyrant"—the dream’s nemesis.

Simply continuing to open and stay a while longer, a remnant dream on this archipelago might be entirely erased.

However, in doing so, the value of this Divine Dream would diminish significantly.

Besides hoping something would occur during destruction, there’s nothing interesting left to extract.

Burning zither and boiling crane, hardly anything more than that.

Indeed, the logic he always cherishes seems to lead things into a dead end.

Either question his mind, or accept that the Double-headed Human-Demon had nothing to do with the Divine Dream, terminate the place and leave.

Of course, theoretically, before that, he still had one last resort, which was not only transforming into the Abandonment King but even directly activating the once-a-day Burial Scroll, gaining Insight from the Superior Being’s perspective to thoroughly see through this place.

Sigh——

At that moment, Fu Qian didn’t initiate or transform, he just let out a light sigh.

Amidst the stirring tentacles, his figure descended from the sky, slowly landing.

In the boundless night, he made no further movement, standing with hands behind his back, observing a corner of the sky, as if surveying an invisible blood moon.

...

"Friendly reminder, it’s almost seven-fifty."

As time ticked away, Fu Qian suddenly spoke, as if there was someone beside him.

"Hehehe... what are you looking at?"

There indeed was a voice replying to him, a tone seemingly inviting trouble.
