Carefree Path of Dreams

Chapter 1138: Influence and the Way

Planet Stael.

Vincent woke up and had a strange flash of emotions through his eyes.

“What happened to me… Right, I was performing the ritual yesterday!”

He got up hurriedly and went to the loft.

While walking, Vincent realized that something was wrong.

Even in broad daylight, the light in the loft was very weak, and it was almost necessary to fumble to ensure that he would not fall.

However, right now, he could see everything clearly, be it a speck of dust in a corner or some spider webs. There was even something else.

“Who?!” It seemed as though he had returned to the hazy feeling he had yesterday and saw a white shadow flash in the corner of his eyes.

“A girl? No… There’s no path there!” Vincent muttered. His neck suddenly turned ninety degrees, and his whole body turned quickly.

This time, he saw it very clearly. It was a little girl with gold-rimmed round glasses. She floated around in the air, between illusion and reality.

After discovering him peeping, she slid into a wall.

“What’s happening?” He returned to the secret room in the loft and started packing. “I only have memories of until I walked down the stairs… What happened after that? Did I fall down the stairs and faint?”

This was definitely possible.

However, Vincent gave a small cry when he suddenly remembered Sen Luo’s page.

His eyes were fiery as he read the small line of text that had appeared at the bottom of the page.

“Do not peep into the inexplicable horrors!”

This line of words was blood red and phantasmagoric, as if it were burning, and it was full of warning.

Vincent screamed and covered his head.

He remembered his adventure last night and the last figure he saw…

“Ahh!!!” With the slight recollection, he held his head, feeling as though it had been slashed cruelly with an ax. However, he could not remember any specific details regarding that figure.

Vincent endured the pain and searched for clues on the page. A second line of warning appeared.

“You automatically master extraordinary power after coming into contact with the extraordinary!”

“I obtained a special ability… because I came into contact with the extraordinary?”

He found a mirror and saw that his eyes had shockingly changed. Each eye had an extra pupil with a touch of purple.

“My eyes became extraordinary, which is why I can see things that ordinary people can’t?”

Vincent walked down the loft but did not see that girl in white this time.

“Good day, Your Excellency Vincent. Did you have a good rest last night?”

A lady wearing a black dress and a veil greeted him on the way.

“Good day, Mrs. Margaret!” Vincent replied absent-mindedly. His eyes narrowed all of a sudden.

Besides Mrs. Margarent, a pale man was staring at her with a smile, but she knew nothing about it.

After finding Vincent’s gaze, the man smiled, tipped his round woolen top hat, and slowly disappeared.

That’s Mr. Gerry. I just attended his funeral…

Vincent turned pale and bade goodbye immediately. He was preparing to get a drink and calm himself down.

He had longed for the extraordinary, but he realized that he was not ready for it at all when the moment finally came.

On the road, black sedan cars and carriages ran side by side, with well-dressed gentlemen and ladies in them.

However, in Vincent’s eyes, all of them were pale and looked as though they were going to die from illness.

He gritted his teeth and stumbled along before finally knocking on the door of a bar that was still open.

“What would you like?” A bartender wiped a glass behind the bar. There was a rotten jellyfish suspended behind him, and its tentacles had reached into his head and squirmed away.

“Oh! No…” Vincent sprinted back to his room and grabbed his hair. “It shouldn’t be like this! Not like this!”

How he wished that everything could return back to yesterday. He would give anything for it!

“The true extraordinary world isn’t something that normal humans can bear!”

He was nearly in tears.

“Perhaps… I should perform the ritual again? No! No!”

Blood veins appeared in Vincent’s eyeballs as he instinctively felt fear.

He went to his desk, wanting to draw everything he had seen last night. However, all that he managed to draw was meaningless lines.

In front of him, many colorful light clusters slowly merged, giving off neon-like colors.

“No!!!” Vincent felt like he was about to break down. He shivered as he opened the brass lock of his drawer, took out a revolver, and pointed it at his forehead. “I’ll eventually go crazy. Death is the best option!”

“Heehee!” A giggle rang out just as he was about to pull the trigger.

“Who?” Vincent turned around and saw the ghost of the girl in glasses he had encountered in the loft. His scalp went numb.

…

Fang Yuan did not know that the person who had contacted him had reached the point of seeking death.

In fact, he would not care even if he knew.

If he had relaxed the restriction even slightly last night, then Vincent would have died or become contaminated and turn into some sort of monster.

However, he had generously given him the gift in view of the memories Vincent had given him. The extraordinary characteristics of Vincent would grow at a very slow rate, allowing him to adapt.

Of course, this still required a great amount of perseverance and a little luck. Otherwise, going mad was only a matter of time.

The later stages would require a terrifying amount of willpower.

After all, the information of an Outer God was too powerful for an ordinary human.

“Is this a Uyguklai spaceship? Not bad!” Fang Yuan looked around.

The technology of the Uyguklais was the path of fusing plants and machinery. The spaceship also had a huge life of its own.

Inside the spaceship, many metal vines wove into various kinds of appliances. There were also special ornamental flowers and transparent glass on all sides, allowing Fang Yuan to see the void of the universe.

“Oh Great Master, we can reach Planet Stael in fifty years with the help of a few wormholes at this speed!” Morigu Tata had obviously revised the basis of her time.

“Morigu Tata! What about the Arita World since you’re following me to Planet Stael?” Fang Yuan asked randomly.

“With real-time communication through the Dream World, there are not many important decisions I have to make as the leader… Moreover, I would be more than willing to die right now in order to serve Supreme Master…” Morigu Tata sounded like a fanatic.

Was it because the capital is too close to me that I contaminated the nearby Uyguklais? Fang Yuan was silent for a while as he searched for the reason. Luckily, it didn’t lower their intelligence and their research ability. If not, this civilization would have become wasted…

After sending Morigu Tata away, he opened Omar’s Book of Flesh.

The pupil on the cover squirmed a little and calmed down.

This Eye of Darkness had power that was nearly on par with Netherheaven Demon God. In front of Fang Yuan, however, it was but a small toy.

“Omar is the Lord of Chaos, born in the deepest darkness in the universe. It…” Fang Yuan read slowly.

He read this as a means to pass the time, to obtain the secrets of the Eyeball of Destruction, and also to gain a deeper understanding of the Outer Gods.

Morigu Tata would hide far away every time he did this, and Fang Yuan would also completely lock down the entire spaceship.

If not, this plant life form might be contaminated and turn into some sort of monster.

“In a nutshell, the intelligent races rarely have the complete true name of an Outer God. To them, any Outer God is too dangerous. Therefore, they are more in contact with the followers and progeny of the Outer Gods!”

This sort of relationship was like the one between the Mandala wizards and the Uyguklais.

Some wizard on Planet Stael had come into contact with White Light Yurisige and obtained part of Fang Yuan’s true name. Thus, the wizard had come into contact with the Uyguklais through the ritual.

These Uyguklais must have hoped to carry out experiments between the galaxies using the Dream World, so they accepted the worship of the wizards and gave them some technological support.

As for those wizards who deviated and turned these technologies into witchcraft, it was another matter altogether.

“There’s no doubt that everything directly related to the Outer Gods is full of evil… If I were to read the Book of Flesh on another planet, it would immediately contaminate the surroundings and create countless monsters. Even though it mostly records Omar’s life and past events, this is high-level information that holds supreme evil…

“Once someone reads the whole book, especially after reading the final true name, this person would undoubtedly directly communicate with Omar. For any life form below the level of an Outer God, it is very dangerous. The best outcome would be for them to become contaminated and become a follower…

“However, there are still some useful rituals and spells…”

Fang Yuan naturally would not be affected by Omar while reading the Book of Flesh. In fact, he was hoping for Omar to appear so that he could try out the astral magic that he had finally deciphered.

“Specifically, they are divided into summoning the demon insects, coming into contact with the Eye of Darkness, traveling in the spirit realm, meeting with the servants of chaos, human domination, the seal of Omar, and so on. From being in contact with Omar’s followers, to meeting its progeny, and finally to Omar itself… all these are techniques that court death without limit. Of course, the power isn’t small, especially the contamination…”

Fang Yuan put down the Book of Flesh and turned to study the cosmic star chart that was necessary for the astral magic seal.

“Well, in general, the Sagittarius Galaxy is quite suitable as a carrier of the astral magic…”
