Chapter 734: Another Dream (6)

What?

This was the first time Yeon-woo had been so shocked. Kronos muttered in disbelief as well. It mustve been something the beasts were hearing for the first time as well, because they were exuding confused thoughts.

A face of the Heavenly Demon! The only Heavenly Demon Yeon-woo had seen so far was the Monkey Kings exuviae. But that alone was difficult to grasp exactly how powerful the Monkey King had been. The power of a vestige body was hard to calculate, so Yeon-woo could only imagine how powerful the real Monkey King would be.

But of course, it probably wasnt that all of the Heavenly Demons faces were strong. From the beginning until now, all of his past lives were called his faces, so there were probably a few normal lives where he had been a farmer or a fisherman However, that didnt mean the level or potential of his soul disappeared. Even if he had lived a normal life, he had most definitely shown his aptitude somehow. Taking that into consideration, it wasnt strange at all that Yvlke was a face of the Heavenly Demon.

Ohoho! If thats true, many of the questions Ive had about Yvlke are now answered! How he was the Towers first Guardian, how he was abnormally strong And thats how he was always to pick up all those fallen emperors!Laplace laughed as he tried to bind Yvlke but was flung back.But its strange. I get that hes a face, but how can he do as he wishes like that?

From what was known, most of the Heavenly Demons faces had a free spirit. That was certainly how the Monkey Kings exuviae that Yeon-woo saw had been. None of them were beings to be tied to something.

However, within that free-spiritedness, they had their own path and duty. It was as if they had some obsession to complete that duty. In other words, it was their fate or destiny. This was a kind of cycle that was passed down from the first protector of fire, Li. Beings with the Heavenly Demons spirit couldnt avoid this.

But Yvlke seemed to have none of that. If he truly was a face, it was impossible for him to act against the Heavenly Demons purpose.

Of course, I only used to be one. Im not one anymore! Im me, and the Heavenly Demon is the Heavenly Demon. The difference is great, so I hope you dont get us mixed up. Ohyohyo! The canines glistening between Yvlkes mouth seemed sharper than usual.

Did that mean he didnt share a soul with the Heavenly Demon anymore? Or like the Monkey Kings exuviae, is there a being named Yvlke, and this is his vestige body? Yeon-woo had no idea.

Boom! Yvlke blasted Heaven Brackets Lightning Strike.

As the explosion and multiple rays of light approached Yeon-woo like a prison, Yeon-woo quickly swung Scythe in the air. Tatatang! Crash, crash, rumble. Yeon-woo felt his range of cognition becoming messed up by the continued shockwaves.

Anyway, thats it for today, and Ill see you again next time. Its time to return home.

Says who! Yeon-woo felt a black shadow moving behind Yvlke. The shadow was spreading its tentacles to the injured beasts. It was a piece of another dream. They were trying to return to where they came from and hide. But naturally, Yeon-woo didnt overlook it.

Ohyohyohyo! Says me, of course. At that moment, Yvlke clapped.

Yeon-woo was attempting to use Shukuchi to approach Yvlke when his vision suddenly began to spin.

[Parts of the disappeared dream attempt to multiply!]

[Erosion occurs!]

[The dream is descending!]

[Warning! The recognition of the world is becoming messed up! The stored data is experiencing confusion. The connection to the backup cloud is unstable.]

[Find and eliminate the cause! If this situation is prolonged, it will affect keeping the world intact!]

[Warning! The laws are shaking due to the collision with other dreams. Idea is receiving static!]

[Eye of the Heavens scatters!]

[Ear of the Heavens fails!]

Static crackled. It wasnt just Yeon-woos vision but his entire mind that was shaken. His range of cognition that he spread throughout the entire universe was dispersed, and the information was no longer refined.

Who am I? Where is this place? Yeon-woo almost lost his own ego. Although he had definitely escaped the prison-like dream, it felt like he was trapped in there again. He felt dizzy. It was difficult to catch his balance as if he wasnt fully awake yet. Trapped in a dreamthat was an apt description.

[You maintain your rationale with the trait Intense Light.]

Yeon-woo? Yeon-woo!

It was Yeon-woos first time feeling this sensation after becoming the Black Kings main ego, so he couldnt help but be taken aback. Fortunately, he was able to regain consciousness with the evolved Cold-blooded trait, Intense Light, and he restored his ego. It was less than a tenth of a second that he lost consciousness, but Yvlke and the others were already gone.

That just now! Yeon-woo was very confused. What he had just experienced was similar to what he felt in the Black Kings world, the Essence of Dreams. How is a face of the Heavenly Demon using the Black Kings power?

However, what made Yeon-woo more confused was that the Black King, who shouldve been asleep, was showing a reaction.

[From somewhere, the Black King watches his shaking ego.]

Although Yeon-woo was closer to the main ego, he didnt understand what that meant. Theres something about him. I have to catch him. Yeon-woo grit his teeth and attempted to use Shukuchi.

Where do you think youre going?!Just then, Kronos grabbed onto Yeon-woo. Strangely, Yeon-woos skin was cold to the touch. Kronos could feel Yeon-woo sweating through his scales.

We have to chase after him!

In that state?!

Thats the reason why, father. Things will become extremely botched if we allow them to continue acting up!

Thats true too, dammit!Kronos thought it was dangerous, but he knew Yeon-woos instinct wasnt something he could ignore, so he crumpled his face.Do you know where he is? Its impossible to read where he is because of the fragments of the lost dream!

Theres something he missed. Yeon-woo spread his palm open. Kiaaaaa. Souls trapped in pain were dancing on his hand.

Oh! The Virtue Stones!

Zeus Apostle, Kim Bum-seung, returned to Yvlke with the two Virtue Stones. While Yvlke had opened the dream fragment, Yeon-woo had sensed the coordinates to where Yvlke went even in his dizzy state.

Yes. I sensed something momentarily. We can move in that direction.

There really is no day of peace.

It had only been several days since Yeon-woo awakened from his sleep. Kronos was concerned that Yeon-woo kept on pushing himself. However, Yeon-woo soon arrived at the coordinates as if he had no time to waste.

[You have entered the <Jie Sect> headquarters Geumo Island!]

What? Jie Sect?

It was an entirely unexpected message. Yeon-woo quickly looked down at the ground below him.

[Demons of <Jie Sect> sense the presence of a trespasser!]

[Qiongqi becomes taken aback after recognizing you!]

[Taowu suspects you are trying to worsen the war!]

[Galaganta straightens his back at the appearance of the new intruder!]

[Hundun looks at you with a welcome expression!]

[The leader of <Jie Sect> Tongtian Jiaozhu narrows his eyes at you.]

Countless gazes focused on Yeon-woo.

* * *

[The godly society <Deva> has surrendered!]

[Agni drops his weapon and wails.]

[Varuna closes his eyes miserably.]

[Kubera furiously says he can still fight.]

[Vayu sighs in relief that hes finally convinced them.]

[The subjugation is finished!]

Whatare you doing to do with us?The leader of Deva, Krishna, had no choice but to kneel and look up at Ares with a trembling gaze.

After Yeon-woo declared war, Ares and the First Corps invaded Deva immediately. They knew how furious Yeon-woo was, so they entered the war without wasting any time.

Of course, it wasnt easy to subjugate everyone within Deva. They were among the strongest societies in the heavenly world along with Olympus, and they had many followers. Each being within the society was powerful.

However, such hierarchies of power only worked before Yeon-woo took authority. Yeon-woo had reached the emperor-level, and because he ruled Olympus, their force increased as well. Most importantly, as Yeon-woos Apostles directly received their strength from him, they had the strength of supreme gods.

Moreover, Olympus had fought against Night on the frontlines for the last ten years. Ten years was short for gods, but the gods of Olympus had become close to death on countless occasions. That was how intense the fight against Night had been. The gods of Olympus gained outstanding legends during that time, so each of them was like a one man army.

Deva, who had barely escaped the Tower with their lives, was no match for the gods of Olympus. In the end, they kneeled in front of the great gap between their strength.

Ares, who was the commander of the subjugation unit, firmly said they wouldnt accept Deva if they surrendered unconditionally, so Deva raised their white flag with humiliation. The matter of their lives and the existence of their society all laid in Ares hands.

Hm. I havent thought that far. Since my uncle told me to get on it, I have no choice but to do so as his nephew. Ares grinned. He was extremely amused by this situation. He was a war fanatic from birth, so he was glad that Deva, who was always compared to Olympus, had finally been defeated.

Krishna gritted his teeth. There were many things he wanted to say, but being on the losing side, whatever he said would be mocked.

Theres something I want to ask before we officially put you to trial. Uncle said I have to ask you this.

Whatis it?

The Black Kings ego ordered Ares to ask something? Krishna widened his eyes, wondering what the question was.

Ares smirked. Whats the reason why Brahm, no, Brahma, left this place in the past?

H-He left of his own accord!

It was an unexpected question, and Krishna stuttered as if he was guilty of something. Realizing something was amiss, Ares, cut Krishna off. We know that Brahma left on his own two feet. But Uncle thinks something happened here. Although we dont know what that is.

Thats!

You know youre over if you get caught lying, right?

!Krishna wasnt able to reply and hesitated.

Ares put more pressure on Krishna. So what is it?

Its!Krishna bit his lower lip. Just when he was about to speak

[The godly society <Memphis> has surrendered!]

[The godly society <Avesta> has been destroyed!]

Like Deva, the messages of surrender from other societies continued to pop up, but there was one message that was different. Ares widened his eyes. Hm?

[The Eighth Corps has failed their subjugation!]

[The allied forces <Chan Sect> have been defeated!]

[<Jie Sect> is victorious!]
