Red light receded like a tide back into the Obelisk, and the blood-red words on the omen face quietly changed.
Invasion!
Invasion!
Invasion!
After sixty-six sunsets, a terrifying invasion is imminent!
Light fades with darkness, fire births shadow,
Dead Soul Return to Silence, Spiritual Energy Eternal!
——
Good!
Sixty-six sunsets!
This moment of respite is enough for me to catch my breath.
It seems that a Colorful Dream was delayed by thirty-three days.
The effect is not bad at all.
The Book of Knowledge once said, the main purpose of a Colorful Dream is to postpone the invasion.
Other uses were developed later.
Rod showed a slight smile.
It's truly the miraculous creation of the Dream Factory.
But the crisis is not over, as shadows are pressing down on the Dream Realm.
Rod changed direction, retrieved the doll, the Evil Ghost King, and Asa, and sped away into the distance.
The golden light on the surface of the Dream Bubble was fading, the Source Energy was plummeting, yet the speed was still increasing.
Rod skillfully maneuvered the Bubble, swiftly navigating between icebergs.
More and more monsters emerged from the icy blue current, and this seemingly pure world hides unimaginable pollution in its unseen depths.
Rod saw a whale covered in pustules, at least nine thousand yards long, with mounds of pustules forming mountains, each pustule sprouting a massive eye, rotten and pale.
The whale's back also had a gigantic blowhole.
When it emitted its decayed moan, black vapor surged forth like a tsunami, severing the entire space.
If Rod hadn't quickly turned the Bubble around, it would have collided.
"Thousand-Eyed Demon Yosa!"
The Book of Knowledge screamed.
"One of the most ancient dominators! Its decay is unimaginable, do not touch it!"
Turning consumed a lot of speed, and worse yet, soon another gigantic monster descended from the sky.
It was a decayed Giant, different from other giants in that its back was curled with black wings.
As they unfolded, endless shadows pressed down upon the Dream Realm, relentlessly closing in.
"Doomsday Demon Otu!"
The Book of Knowledge desperately cried out.
"Also one of the most ancient dominators, its decline is irreversible! Run, my master! This isn't our current enemy!"
Rod exerted all his strength to flee frantically, the Dream Bubble made three sharp turns, using large icebergs for cover, then darted into a vast Mist, finally losing them.
Once convinced no monsters were chasing, Rod breathed a long sigh of relief, carefully lowered the Source Energy of the Spiritual Power Propulsion Ring to a low disturbance state and retreated from the Light Platform.
With a snap, the Book of Knowledge fell off the Divine Mirror, lying sprawled out on the ground, motionless.
For a moment, Rod wished he could lie down like this.
As his spirit relaxed from extreme tension, severe exhaustion swept over him.
But now he couldn't lie down, as there were many important matters he needed to address.
Rod stepped out of the House of God and immediately saw the doll.
Its body was extensively damaged, exposing its internal skeleton, its eyes tightly shut, black-and-white souls were merging into its body on the Obelisk.
"Aphro, are your injuries serious?"
The doll calmly replied, "Not serious, they'll soon heal."
Rod felt slightly relieved, then swiveled to see the Evil Ghost King.
It too was severely injured, lying dormant under the Obelisk.
Only Asa seemed unscathed.
"Great master."
Facing Rod, he bowed respectfully.
"Congratulations on your victory in this battle, you will reign over this world, become the ruler of all things."
Rod smiled but did not reply.
Asa wanted to continue speaking but was abruptly interrupted by the Book of Knowledge.
"Master, Master! We won! Hahaha, we won!"
The Book of Knowledge raced forward, leaping onto Rod, pages flapping wildly, resembling a frolicking dog.
"We've obtained this Fragment! The Star can finally ignite the Star Soul!"
"Commander is just the beginning! Master must become even stronger!"
Rod nodded, a smile unknowingly spreading across his face as well.
This time's harvest was unprecedented, five Dream Fragments were obtained in one go, the most ever!
Most importantly, he finally acquired the dream architecture to ignite the Star Soul!
The Star can finally complete its final step, reveal its full power, and achieve its ultimate form.
He will also grow stronger.
Only then might he defeat those terrifying monsters in the future, slay those indescribable beings in the darkness, perhaps even achieve the ultimate victory.
The Book of Knowledge urgently cried, "Master, come quickly!"
Rod stepped forward, arriving at the Evil Ghost Stone Tank.
After the birth of the Evil Ghost King, this tank hadn't been used much.
Its Evil Ghost Stones were mostly given to Trolian as excellent materials.
The Book of Knowledge had once said, the Evil Ghost Stone Tank contained more than just Evil Ghost Stones.
That is, it wasn't a complete architecture, but until now, Rod found its other portion.
This time, the Dream Realm had directly devoured Dream Fragments, and the missing parts were restored.
Upon restoration, the Evil Ghost Stone Tank grew larger, with a huge staircase added to its front.
Rod climbed up the stairs and looked, only to see three withered evil ghosts in the tank suddenly reaching out to him, their shriveled heads split open with jagged mouths, emitting bizarre murmurs.
