Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Ru Meng’s Dream Realm! Mastering Everything!

In the eyes of these people, Lin Xuan was doomed. However, his figure soon emerged, standing there completely unscathed.

The Grandmasters’ eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. How is this possible? How could he be unharmed? What kind of Physique does he have? This is too terrifying!

Lin Xuan unleashed the Cyan Dragon Sky Shattering Palm. It swept in all directions, shattering the bodies of more than a dozen Grandmasters and turning them into a mist of blood.

Those watching from a distance felt their scalps tingle at the sight.

"How terrifying! This Lin Xuan is simply heaven-defying!"

"He’s truly worthy of the title ’Young Emperor’—incredibly powerful."

"We’d better not provoke him."

The crowd gasped in awe, no longer daring to confront Lin Xuan.

After collecting the Spirit Medicines, Lin Xuan tossed them into the Eternal Divine Furnace. He used it to refine a fourth-grade Elixir. Upon consuming it, his cultivation rose once more, advancing from the early stage of a one-star Grandmaster to the middle stage.

His strength became even more formidable. Now, he wouldn’t be afraid even if he encountered a mid-stage seven-star opponent.

Next, Lin Xuan set out again. He left the herb garden and continued deeper into the Ancient Relic. His ultimate goal was the Wood Dragon Pearl.

As he searched, Lin Xuan asked the Earth Dragon Pearl if it could sense the Fire Dragon Pearl’s presence.

"I can sense it," the Earth Dragon Pearl replied. "It’s deep within this Ancient Relic."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan quickened his pace, seizing any Treasures he encountered along the way.

Half a day later, Lin Xuan paused again. A sea of flames had appeared ahead, floating in the void. Many Grandmasters were gathered around it. Some had rushed into the sea of fire, only to retreat moments later, screaming in pain. Bleeding from their seven orifices, they were severely injured.

Someone exclaimed, "These flames are too terrifying!"

Another screamed, "It’s the Soul Fire!"

The other onlookers felt their scalps tingle. Soul attacks were already mysterious and strange, and this Soul Fire was even more terrifying.

"Alas," a Grandmaster sighed. "What a pity. The Treasure within must be a Soul Treasure."

"It’s just that this Soul Fire is too strong. We can’t contend with it."

The group frowned, their faces full of indecision.

When Lin Xuan approached, a sharp light glinted in his eyes. He gazed at the sea of Soul Fire and discovered a fruit at its center.

"What’s this?" Lin Xuan asked curiously.

The big black dog answered, "It’s a Soul Essence Fruit. Consuming it can enhance your Soul Power."

Lin Xuan’s eyes brightened upon hearing this. My Soul is currently at the third tier. If my Soul Power increases, my overall strength will improve. My Pupil Technique will get stronger, and my Alchemy skills will advance too. Soul Power is crucial. This is a great find! He decided he had to seize the Soul Essence Fruit.

As Lin Xuan walked forward, the surrounding crowd exclaimed. "Is someone else going to enter the Soul Fire?"

"Who is this, so unafraid of death?"

They had all been injured when they tried to enter before; in their view, no one could succeed. Then someone recognized him.

"Hey, it’s him!"

"It’s that Young Emperor!"

"So it’s him! I heard he can fight opponents seven realms above his own. I wonder if he’ll succeed?"

"I’ve seen him battle seven-star Grandmasters. His speed is incredible and his Physique is powerful, but his Soul Power should be his weak point."

"Yeah, he probably won’t be able to withstand the Soul Fire."

Hearing their discussion, a cold smile touched Lin Xuan’s lips. My Soul Power might only be at the third tier, but I have the Candle Dragon Soul! That’s an incredibly terrifying Dragon Soul. Indeed, Lin Xuan’s Soul Power was not the least bit inferior to a seven-star Grandmaster’s; it was even stronger than that of the average one.

Just as the crowd was discussing this excitedly, a seven-colored light suddenly transformed into a butterfly and flew over. As it passed before them, their eyes turned vacant, and they froze in place. Some began to laugh foolishly, while others simply collapsed, unconscious.

A few held their heads and screamed, "Oh no, it’s an illusion! Such terrifying Power of Illusion!"

"It’s the Dream Butterfly!"

"That’s the Ultimate Skill of the Celestial Dream Pavilion!"

Some people with extremely strong Soul Power managed to resist, but their faces were filled with terror as they backed away. They retreated while looking up, trying to see who had arrived.

They saw a woman in a seven-colored long dress walking over from the distance. She was surrounded by countless seven-colored butterflies, creating a dreamlike, ethereal scene.

"It’s her! Ru Meng from the Celestial Dream Pavilion!" the distant Grandmasters exclaimed, their eyes filled with fear.

This Ru Meng was a seven-star Grandmaster. Although her cultivation was only at the early stage, her Soul Power was exceptionally terrifying. Moreover, she was adept in various Illusion Techniques. An ordinary early-stage seven-star Grandmaster was no match for her, and even a mid-stage seven-star Grandmaster could suffer a loss if they were careless.

Ru Meng approached the Soul Fire and gazed at the Soul Essence Fruit at its center. A smile of satisfaction spread across her lips, her eyes filled with delight. The Soul Essence Fruit! What a wonderful find. After consuming it, my Soul Power will definitely increase. By then, dealing with mid-stage seven-star opponents will be as easy as turning over my hand.

Ru Meng prepared to act but noticed there was still one other person nearby. She waved her hand disdainfully, and a seven-colored butterfly carrying a dreamlike light flew toward the figure ahead. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Enter the dream," Ru Meng said with a smile.

The figure ahead was, naturally, Lin Xuan. The seven-colored butterfly fluttered around him, but he remained unmoved. He simply flicked his finger, shattering the butterfly into pieces.

The Dream Butterfly shattered, dissolving into shards of rainbow light that scattered in every direction.

Ru Meng’s face stiffened. He actually withstood my illusion attack? Interesting!

"Boy, you seem to have some skill, but let me give you some advice: leave now," she said. "I’ve set my eyes on this Soul Essence Fruit. You have no chance against me."

If it were Wu Chen, Mo Feng, or Huo Yuner—the top prodigies—Ru Meng knew she wouldn’t be a match. But aside from those few, she didn’t give anyone else a second thought.

Ahead, Lin Xuan also turned around and said calmly, "Then let me give you some advice as well. Leave now. Otherwise, when I make my move, you’ll be in for a miserable time."

Hearing this, Ru Meng’s face darkened. What an arrogant boy. But when she saw Lin Xuan’s face, she was momentarily surprised.

"Oh, it’s you. The legendary Young Emperor. No wonder you’re so arrogant."

"Kid, your strength is indeed heaven-defying, but you’re still not my opponent. You don’t seem to excel in Soul Power, do you? You stand no chance against me. I’m going to make you, the famous Young Emperor, my captive."

Just the thought of controlling a Young Emperor and having him as my subordinate is thrilling!

With a wave of her hand, a swarm of Dream Butterflies flew toward him, blotting out the sky. The Power of Illusion was several times stronger than before.

Lin Xuan didn’t dodge, simply letting the Dream Butterflies envelop him.

Seeing this, Ru Meng burst out laughing.

"Once struck by my Dream Butterflies, you’ve already entered my Dream Realm. In this realm, I am the ruler! Boy, submit obediently!"

The spectators in the distance felt their scalps tingle when they heard her.

"It’s over. The Young Emperor has been defeated."

"Alas, he was too arrogant."

"He wasn’t proficient in Soul Power, yet he still dared to confront Ru Meng head-on. Wasn’t that just suicidal?"

"Now he’s lost."

"He’ll become Ru Meng’s puppet."

"That’s a fate worse than death."

The crowd sighed again and again.

Meanwhile, Ru Meng’s lips curled into a cold smile. She stood like a supreme ruler and commanded coldly, "Kneel!"

Lin Xuan’s mouth, however, curled into a cold smile of his own. Me, not proficient in Soul Power? My Soul is weak? Ridiculous! I possess a Dragon Soul!
