Chapter 1260: The Body of

“Sucking people’s souls?” Isabella’s face paled, the mere thought horrifying.

Zuan, however, was somewhat disappointed. “Is the Dreamland’s ability to create dreams? So everything is fake?”

He had come to the Dreamland to save Chu Chuyan and Mi Li, and to reunite with the ancient mermaid queen, the Wushan Goddess. If they were merely creating dreams to lull guests into a state of tranquility, that wouldn’t truly solve the problem.

Even if he managed to save everything in his dreams, what would that even mean?

Fireworks couldn’t help but defend himself, saying, “Dreaming isn’t useless. It can soothe wounded souls and provide a haven of peace for those who have experienced hardship. Beyond that, our dreams have another purpose: to guide events in the direction you desire, ultimately fulfilling your dreams.”

Zuan’s heart skipped a beat. “Guide events?”

Isabella, standing beside him, said, “Brother Zu, I’ve heard of this ability. I’ve even asked Father about it before. It’s truly unique. It seems to be an innate ability, similar to the great prophecies of some other worlds. They first determine the outcome, and then various causes and conditions will activate, ultimately ensuring that outcome is successfully achieved.”

As if fearing he didn’t understand, Isabella offered another example. “For example, if they predict someone’s death, their enemies will become impulsive and do whatever they can to kill them. Or, if they predict someone’s survival, even if they’re terminally ill, a fortuitous event will inevitably occur, ultimately saving their life.”

“So magical…” Zuan was no stranger to the art of grand prophecy. His “Key Come” was similar to it, for example, where any word spoken would come true.

“Can you make any dream come true?” He realized the key problem.

“Of course not,” Yanhua said with a bitter smile. “If it were that easy, I’d dream of that witch’s death, and it would have come true long ago.”

“We can only guide people’s dreams to come true. This process consumes merit. The more difficult the wish, the greater the merit consumed, and if you fail, the greater the backlash.”

After hearing her explanation, Zuan began to understand. “Key Come” also came at a high price, though there had been no quantifiable standard.

“What is merit?” Zuan took the opportunity to inquire, wondering if his own “Key Come” required a similar cost. If so, he could make it more controllable, so it wouldn’t be so easily destroyed.

Fireworks explained, “To ordinary people, merit is about doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. However, Heaven and Earth are merciless and treat all things as straw dogs. Many people think they’ve done good deeds, but in reality, they have no merit at all. On the other hand, they’ve done evil, even slaughtering countless lives, and yet they seem to have merit. The truth is, whether or not you have merit depends on whether your actions benefit the world.”

“For example, a planet may be overpopulated and overexploited, leading to resource depletion and severe pollution. Then, those on the path of annihilation may go and destroy the world. While their hands may appear stained with blood and a debt of blood, from the perspective of the universe itself, they’ve actually done a good deed.”

Zuan fell silent. He hadn’t considered this aspect before, but after she brought it up, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of enlightenment.

For example, in the world of cultivation, the will of Heaven and Earth is often mentioned. This will doesn’t manifest in human form, but it does exist.

How could the entire universe not have such a will?

Perhaps those true gods are the embodiment of various wills…

Isabella couldn’t help but ask, “Have you found any information about your father?”

“I’ve used some of the secret techniques of the Dreamland, combined with my years of searching, and I’ve indeed found some information. My father is very likely not dead, but most likely imprisoned here by that enchantress. I originally wanted to lure Brother Zu and Sister Tingxue over to help investigate, but who knew I’d lure that enchantress along with them?” Fireworks said, somewhat angrily.

“But fortunately, she’s been captured by the demon spider. Sister Fireworks, you don’t have to worry about her anymore,” Isabella consoled. Then, remembering Alfred’s capture, her expression darkened.

“That enchantress wouldn’t die so easily. The one captured by the demon spider was just a clone of hers. Her death wouldn’t affect her true form,” Fireworks snorted.

“Where is her true form?” Isabella asked, puzzled. “We can’t kill everyone in the Dream Land to truly kill her.”

Fireworks shook her head. “I don’t know where her true form is, either. I haven’t been able to fully investigate her in all these years, and I don’t understand where her incredible abilities come from.”

At this moment, Zaun’s voice rang out from the side: “I do know where her true form is.”

“You know?” Fireworks was immediately bewildered. It wasn’t that she didn’t believe him, but she had been searching for years with no results, and she had only been in the Dream Land for a short time.

Under the curious gazes of the two girls, Zaun glanced in the direction they had fled. “Her true form is right here.”

“Here?” Fireworks’ hair stood on end, and she couldn’t help but glance at Isabella beside her, wondering if she, too, had been controlled by the enchantress, or even one of her incarnations.

Isabella glanced at her, too, subconsciously moving closer to Zaun, as if only with him could she feel a sense of security.

Seeing the two girls’ reactions, Zuan couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s not what you think, because Yani is the demon spider out there.”

“What!” The two girls exclaimed in surprise, especially Yana. Having just witnessed Yani’s heroic battle with the terrifying demon spider, it was hard to connect the two.

“I have a special ability that allows me to see through illusions. I’ve already seen Yani’s true form as a demon spider.” Zuan, who had received the Eye of Illusion from the God of Memory, had just returned to the ship when he noticed something was amiss between Yani and the crew.

He saw the shadow of a spider behind her and was initially confused, but after seeing the terrifying demon spider, everything finally clicked.

“Brother Zu, you possess so many special abilities!” Isabella marveled. She had met countless powerful warriors in the Universal Chamber of Commerce, and while Zuan was actually quite a bit weaker than them, none of them possessed his incredible abilities.

Furthermore, he possessed so many of them!

So even if he seemed a bit weak, the outcome of a real fight was uncertain.

“Spider, puppet, manipulation…” Fireworks’ expression changed from gloomy to bright. “Sure enough, why didn’t I think of this before? But she’s so strong now, what’s the point of doing all this?”
