Chapter 206. Digging a Hole to Fish
In the dream world, dazzling divine light cleanses away filth, and the supreme will crushes everything.
With a single punch, he shattered the arrogant newcomer of nightmares into dust.
In an instant, the world that was just moments ago filled with twisted flesh and wailing was completely cleared away. The monster that had devoured the planet had fallen into a giant hand, wisps of black smoke rose, and terrifying howls filled the entire world.
The newly ascended dream demon experienced unprecedented pain. The majestic light penetrated deep into his soul, and his overwhelming will almost crushed everything he had into nothingness. Even the slightest connection with the power of the eye demon was severed, isolating him from all things.
"You—how—how could you possibly—come here—here, the connection has been severed—"
The newly arrived dream demon stammered his questions, finding Ultraman's arrival utterly unbelievable. He reasoned that the connection between life and destiny had been severed, and even if Ultraman were to arrive, he could not possibly enter reality; he should be in the past or future timeline.
But things just happen so incredibly. Ultraman precisely entered reality and stopped the dream invasion. Everything was so natural, as if He had been waiting for this moment.
Noah ignored the new dream demon that was trying to devour the dream dimension of the universe, and instead pointed a finger at the lump of flesh that Takuya had transformed into.
Takuya's proportion in this universe is extremely high; in other words, he is the child of this universe, which is why he has the ability to have precognitive dreams—this is the blessing of the universe.
The dream he had today was the universe's last cry for help, but unfortunately it was too late. The invasion had already begun, and Tuo couldn't stop it. The dimensional demons were still too overpowered for the heroes on the physical side.
With a flick of his finger, Takuya immediately returned to normal, his expression terrified, clearly still reeling from the aberration he had just witnessed.
"Takuya, I'm here."
A divine, ethereal voice echoed in the dream, instantly sweeping away the spiritual pollution within Takuya. He looked towards the sound and saw a giant of light, radiating a soft glow, standing silently: "Light—God of Light!"
"It's me," Noah nodded.
At this moment, Takuya realized that the God of Light had saved him again, and he quickly thanked him, "Thank you, you saved me again, I really don't know how to thank you enough."
"No need to thank me. I heard the universe's cry for help, and saving you is also saving the universe."
It wasn't until they arrived at the real timeline of this universe through the location provided by the Shield of Paragi that they discovered that it wasn't Takuya who was calling for help; Takuya hadn't even noticed anything amiss yet. It was the universe itself that was calling for help.
However, at that time, Noah was still exploring the coordinates of the Eye Demon outside the universe and did not enter immediately, so the universe gave Takuya another precognitive dream.
Noah made his move at the perfect moment, but unfortunately the Eye Demon was very cautious and didn't help his subordinates even so, allowing the power of light to cleanse the universe and hand over the universe that was about to be his.
However, the Eye Demon left behind another of his subordinates: those fleshy tentacles outside the universe, which may have been his vanguard.
If there is no threat, then devour it all; if there is a threat, then act according to your capabilities.
It's hard to imagine what happened to make such a powerful evil god so cautious.
Takuya nodded, feeling that the God of Light was still so humble. How could a mere human like himself be involved in saving the universe?
"Is this the monster that invaded the universe and caused the flesh and blood of steel creations to mutate?" Takuya asked, pointing to the newly emerged nightmare in Noah's hand.
"He's just one of them; he specializes in dreams, while the other specializes in reality," Noah explained.
"However, his master has already abandoned this monster that invaded the dream. As for the monster in reality, it is not yet clear whether it is connected to the Eye Demon behind it."
"What? Impossible! Master wouldn't abandon me! You're the one who severed the power connection between me and Master!"
"You won't fool me, and you won't get any news about my master!"
Noah had barely finished explaining when the newly emerged nightmare demon in his hand, a distorted and twisted mass of mist, let out a terrifying howl and curse.
These slaves, dominated by the Old Ones, had long lost their sense of self. In their hearts, there was only a morbid obedience to their benevolent fathers. And the one in Noah's hand was once a human being.
But all that is known is his human identity; everything else is unknown. Noah's tracing of origins can only go this far; everything else has been erased.
Noah would not explain such an evil and disgusting thing, because he was not worthy. His figure slowly shrank, a flash of light appeared, and he returned to Ji Yuan. The newly acquired dream demon in his hand also shrank at the same time.
Several beams of light appeared in Ji Yuan's hand, creating a cage for the dream monster and silencing it, as its strange cries were quite annoying.
As for why he didn't just kill him directly, it was because he sensed something else was amiss.
If the nightmare demon hadn't mentioned severing the connection, he wouldn't have realized that the connection between the eye demon and the nightmare demon was too fragile and broke too quickly, more like a mechanism that would naturally break when encountering a powerful force.
Although I don't know why the Eye Demon is so cautious, if it's just a mechanic, then there's a chance.
The universe inhabited by the Eye Demon is a cancerous universe, ruled by the Great Old Ones. There have been instances of them battling heroes from the main universe, but that hasn't happened yet.
The cancerous universe is excluded from the multiverse and is not within the scope of the Web of Life and the Web of Fate. This prevents the multiverse from being invaded and also makes their location extremely hidden. If they do not take the initiative, they are basically impossible to find.
Then there's an opportunity. Ji Yuan's consciousness has already jumped out of the dream and seen the entire universe. The monster that invaded the universe is still invading, and there are no other changes.
This means his idea should be correct. The connection between this dream demon and the other demon is a bit special. It's likely that the eye demon suffered some kind of loss in the past and deliberately caused this incident.
The evil god's familiar outside is most likely still connected to the Eye Demon, since without that connection, the universe would be swallowed up and the Eye Demon would be nowhere to be found.
The cancerous universe makes them not only hidden, but also makes it very difficult for them to find other universes.
What needs to be done now is to create an illusion, an illusion that the cosmic dream has been completely devoured, to deceive the Eye Demon's consciousness into investing. Even if it's just a trace, Ji Yuan can directly find the cancerous universe by relying on that little bit of his own consciousness projection.
Then, take them all at once!
He looked at Takuya and said, "I have a task for you. Are you interested?"
"God of Light, I am willing to serve you. May I ask what kind of task it is?" Takuya asked after readily agreeing.
"Play dead."
