Chapter 44: Once upon a time there was a mountain, and there was a temple in the mountain
"Yo, Akasha, long time no see."
In the blood-colored space, the succubus queen was already waiting there in advance. When she saw Wang Wu coming in, she smiled slightly: "Good evening."
Holding up the shield and helping Wang Wu isolate the space powerlessly, Akasha asked: "Is this time I am going to break through to the anthropomorphic realm? The accumulation of the previous two months is almost the same."
Wang Wu shook his head, "You don't have to worry about breaking through the realm. This time there is something strange about me who wants to ask you."
Akasha's face changed slightly, thinking that she should not give sanitary napkins again, even if she is knowledgeable, she will vomit blood...
Fortunately, Wang Wu finally got normal this time and did not shock Akasha's mind. He just simply told the story of his sneaking and being discovered.
However, the problems encountered by Wang Wu this time did make Akasha frown.
"You mean, both sneaks were discovered? When I first approached Lin Tianzheng Villa, wasn't everything normal?"
Wang Wu said: "I think I'm afraid I'll be discovered when I get close to a certain distance. But the other party didn't take action. I wanted to wait until I get closer, or when I relaxed, and then counterattacked. Lin Tianzheng's reaction was more sophisticated than Lin Feng, like Lin Feng, who couldn't help but shout when he found me. It's strange that when did these two men become so sharp? Moreover, Lin Feng could sense my existence, but could not see the gravel in front of him. This must be a far-sight of thousands of degrees?"
Akasha just frowned slightly, secretly calculating the possibilities contained therein, without answering.
Wang Wu continued: "In addition, there is something suspicious. When I locked these two people with special perception, I felt that the target of the lock is a bit strange, as if it was no longer them, but someone else, or more than one person appeared there in an instant."
"More than one?" Akasha repeated softly, "More than one person... Can you tell me in detail?"
"I can't confirm that feeling, after all, it's just a short moment, and there's never been a precedent before. But generally speaking, when I use my own method to perceive a person's existence, that special smell should be unique, but Lin Feng and Lin Tianzheng seem to have a strange odor on them."
"Strange odor?" Akasha pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Zhou Tong, what do you think?"
The next moment, the old Taoist Zhou Tong in a blue Taoist robe appeared next to Akasha out of thin air and smiled: "Wang Wu's perception is extremely accurate. We have been deeply touched in the past two months. I don't think it was because of the boy's perception. Since he said that there was a strange odor on the other party, it must be that the other party's existence had impurities."
Akasha asked again without comment: "Leorek, what do you think?"
The dull and rough voice of the Skeleton King sounded: "No matter how huge the dream of the Dream Builder is, it was created by the Dream Builder himself. Both sides come from the same source, and there will be no impurities, unless it is not his own thing."
Zhou Tongxu said: "If it is not your own thing, it is difficult to settle down in the dream builder's dream. There are not many such exceptions, but based on the background of the Lin family, hahaha!"
At the same time, Akasha and the Skeleton King laughed loudly at the same time.
After a long time, Akasha said again: "Wang Wu, have you made any new grudges with Lin Feng and the others recently? Let the Lin family use such means to deal with you!"
Zhou Tong sneered from the side: "What other reason is needed? The Lin family is petty and likes to do these tricks of hurting people the most. Fortunately, their ancestors created a great cause, but later generations are becoming less and less popular!"
Wang Wu couldn't help but wonder: "What are you talking about? Did you deliberately pretend to shake me?"
Zhou Tong said angrily: "Who has shook you?"
Akasha smiled and stopped Zhou Tong, then asked Wang Wu: "Do you know the ancestors of the Lin family?"
Wang Wu nodded: "The great freedom fighter Lincoln fought a bloody battle with the slave owners for ten years to liberate the low-ranking slaves on the continent, bringing new life to millions of slaves. However, he was assassinated and killed by the slave owner when he was successful... That's right?"
Akasha said: "It's basically true, but you should also know that when the dream builder's strength reaches a certain level, it is difficult to assassinate him. As a hero of his generation, Lincoln's cultivation level at his peak was unmatched in the mainland. Even the Hua family with a longer history had no one compared to Lincoln at that time. How could such a hero be easily murdered?"
Wang Wu suddenly became interested. As a professional gold finger, this kind of black history must be listened to!
"I'm afraid not many people on the mainland know the truth about this... In fact, the truth is very simple. When Lincoln was assassinated, his real realm was no longer as good as before, and he could no longer resist the revenge of the enemy!"
Wang Wu asked: "Oh? Did you first get weakened by the enemy and then be fatal by one blow?"
Akasha said: "With Lincoln's ability at that time, who could really weaken him? He gave up his strength, destroyed his cultivation, and eventually lost his life!"
Wang Wu suddenly realized: "So that's it, Lincoln died of suicide!"
"To some extent, it's true that he knew that his enemies were everywhere and he could not shock the world without sufficient cultivation. But he destroyed his foundation, which was really a suicide. However, Lincoln was in his situation at that time, there was no other way..."
Akasha said, sighing, as if regretting the heroes hundreds of years ago.
"This should be a secret that the Lin family will never publicize to the outside world, right? The truth of the matter is indeed shocking... Wang Wu, if you ask you to guess, what level of talent should be his great dream builder who is as shocking as Lincoln?"
Wang Wu thought for a while: "Since you asked so deliberately, I had to answer the opposite. Lincoln is a natural waste!"
Akasha was silent for a while and said, "Asking the answer, Lincoln's dream builder's talent is indeed very average. If we look at the standards of the Blue Blood Family today, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is useless. However, the talent of the dream builder has nothing to do with a person's intelligence. Although Lincoln is difficult to achieve success in dream building, he himself is a man with great wisdom and perseverance. He has worked hard for many years and has turned the impossible into possibility, creating a new path of dream building practice, and with the help of the middle-aged man, he finally entered an incredible realm, dominated the continent, and created great achievements."
"Oh? What is the path to practice?"
Akasha said, "Before this, I will ask you a question first. In theory, the dream builder's dream kingdom is all-encompassing, and there are countless dream creatures, but have you heard of anyone's dream kingdom, and there are dream builders in the dream kingdom? I mean the dream builder as a dream creature."
Wang Wu was stunned. He had never heard of anyone who created a dream builder in the dream kingdom, creating dreams in the dream kingdom? It sounds so fantastic! But with the ability of the dream builder, since he can create succubus, hellhounds and other things that are completely originated from fiction in the dream kingdom, why can't he create a dream builder?
"Because it is impossible to do it, as long as any dream creature has not been fully realized by the dream builder and has not yet possessed the existence of the real plane, it is absolutely impossible to practice dream building. The foundation of the dream power is still the real plane, so no matter how hard the dream creature works, it is impossible to produce any trace of dream power. For example, the little succubus you just recovered will never be able to practice dream building."
Wang Wu thought, even without this inexplicable law, it would be impossible for Xiao Liuli to practice dream building skills with her IQ...
"In short, for most people on the mainland, the dream builder's dream kingdom cannot include the dream builder, this is an iron law. However, Lincoln broke this iron law. He created a large number of dream builders in the dream space. The function of these dream builders is not to help him fight directly in the dream space, but to provide him with dream power and assist him in building dreams. Although Lincoln's talent is average, he has a large number of dream builders to help him help his dream power. His dream power is always several times or even dozens of times higher than that of others. The efficiency of transforming pure power into dream entities is several times faster than that of ordinary people. In this way, any disadvantages in qualifications have been made up. Lincoln later became the most important thing in the continent at that time. The most important thing is that his dream power is almost endless and inexhaustible."
Hearing this, Wang Wu felt something was wrong.
"You said that those dream builders provide him with endless power of dreams? But the dream builders in dreams can only provide the power of dreams in dreams, there is one level behind them."
Akasha shook her head: "Before Lincoln appeared, anyone thought, like you, that even without that iron rule, it would be unprofitable to create a dream builder, because the dream builder in dreams is difficult to affect reality... But the fact is that the power of dreams is a very interesting energy. Once it is produced, it will quickly homogenize whether it is in the dream space or in the real plane. In other words, even if the dream power generated by the dream creature can be directly used by the owner of the dream creature... Of course, this is just a speculation by later generations. Unfortunately, except for Lincoln, others cannot create a dream builder in the dream kingdom, and they cannot verify the authenticity."
Wang Wu asked: "For thousands of years, there is no other person?"
Akasha smiled: "Yes, like you, they are all existences that have never been precedent in thousands of years. The dream builder in the dream is a miracle among the miracles that countless people admire and envy."
Speaking of this, Akasha changed her mind and sighed slightly: "But who knows the story hidden behind this miracle?"
After hearing this, Wang Wu couldn't help but lit up. This was the beginning of the traditional project "Listen to Old One-Eyed Story" when he was in an underground maze. Old One-Eyed has nothing to do, but his life experience is quite rich, and he can often tell wonderful stories, and he has also developed the habit of Wang Wu's love to listen to stories.
"You said, what's hidden behind this?"
Akasha said: "Many people think that Lincoln has a unique talent and can break the iron law, but in fact, what is truly unique is not Lincoln's talent, but his experience. The dream builder in Lincoln's dream space was not created by him, but by other dream builders who transferred their consciousness. Simply put, it is the dream builder who abandoned his real body and completely integrated his spirit and dream into Lincoln's dream space to form a brand new existence."
Wang Wu was surprised: "Is this OK? Isn't it possible to send dreams to each other? Isn't it possible for dream builders to basically not be able to transmit dreams to each other?"
"Of course there is no way to do it in general. But perhaps Lincoln's talent is really special, or perhaps he created some unique skills. In short, he did receive gifts from several other dream builders and has a large number of dream builders in his dream space. However, this transfer is not without cost. So far, except for your dream inception, any dream transfer will be depleted. Generally speaking, the loss will be more than 80%, and Lincoln has not been able to bypass this rule. When accepting the transfer of several other dream builders, those people's consciousness and memory are completely destroyed, but they only retain the other party's ability to create dream power. They have become a existence like a puppet."
"The consciousness and memory are completely destroyed? Isn't that just dead? What kind of scam did Lincoln design to make a group of dream builders kill so much?"
Out of professionalism, Wang Wu asked curiously.
Akasha sighed again: "Those people were voluntary and had nothing to do with any scam. Lincoln had long told them the possible result that they chose to give up their lives. The specific identity of those people is now difficult to verify, but as far as I know, they were just a group of slaves at first, and were rescued by Lincoln because of an accident. Then they probably were moved by Lincoln's lofty ambitions, and resolutely sacrificed themselves and became creatures in Lincoln's dream space..."
"Lincoln is famous for his great cause of liberating slaves. This is his greatest achievement in his life. However, I am afraid that few people know that Lincoln's earth-shaking dream-building cultivation was obtained by relying on a group of slaves! Without the support of slaves, Lincoln's talent and qualifications are only at the level of a middle-aged man, and it is impossible for him to reach the level of a master. Without the level of a master, Lincoln could not overthrow the slave system that has been passed down for thousands of years, running through dozens of dynasties and hundreds of kingdoms, giving slaves all over the world a freedom. He eventually became a hero that will be recorded in history forever."
Wang Wu nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "Old One-eyed told me that fooling others to sacrifice for their grand ideals is the most clever trick. Uncle Lincoln is indeed a fellow fellow man."
But Akasha no longer chuckled as indifferently as before. The succubus queen's expression seemed solemn and quiet, and her voice was calm: "When Lincoln almost destroyed the slavery on the continent, he did not try to stay on the peak forever like other heroes to look down on all living beings. He chose to liberate the last batch of slaves on the continent - those slaves who were bound in his body and provided him with endless dream power. After that, he no longer had the ability to resist assassination."
Wang Wu still curled his lips: "The biggest scam is the kind that can also deceive himself. It also deceives himself. This is the highest level of scam. Lincoln is really a perfectionist."
After hearing this, Akasha couldn't help but sigh, knowing that this must be the result of the poison of the old one-eyed poison. It was impossible to make Wang Wu understand what great sentiments were, so she had to change the topic: "Lincoln's story is not the focus, the focus is the dream builders in the story who voluntarily sacrificed and became puppets. At the end of the story, Lincoln drove out all the puppets in the dream kingdom, but did not destroy them all. While liberating most of the puppets, he also left a part of his family - perhaps it was blood power, or perhaps other reasons.
Lincoln's descendants could indeed inherit these puppets, but after Lincoln, the Lin family could no longer create new puppets. These puppets are limited in number and are priceless, and are the most precious treasures of the Lin family and will not be used easily. However, according to the situation you described, puppets are the only explanation. Only those puppets that have experienced great times have the instinct to find out dangers and can detect your whereabouts. Only dream builders puppets who are in the dreams of others but have endless sources of energy to create the power of dreams can make you smell a scent."
After a pause, Akasha said again: "In order to deal with you, the Lin family actually used the treasure, and you can be proud of it."

ps: Regarding the update time, it is indeed not stable... The main reason is that the time you get off work is unstable. I prefer to check it out before uploading it, so I don’t want to use the scheduled release function for the time being, and they are all released manually, so the final update is unstable. But it is generally still at seven or eight o’clock.
pss: If it is on weekends, the update will be more casual. If it is released earlier, for example, one chapter will be updated at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, then there will usually be additional updates in the evening, and the specific time will vary.
Chapter completed!
