Chapter 699 Xiaomeng and Butterfly
“What, Chuangjie Mountain is locked?”
At the administrator's hiding place, several old men were so shocked that they gasped after hearing Mu You's description.
If this is the case, it means that the main premise of their "sky patching plan" was not established from the beginning. It has been purely useless work for so many years...
Fortunately, Mu You quickly explained what happened next.
After hearing the layout explained by the leader himself, several people just breathed a sigh of relief.
Several people also sympathized with Zuoqiu's experience. The process was quite dangerous, but in the end, the result was good...
"It turns out that the leaders secretly made so many arrangements..." one of the old men sighed.
Others also nodded and sighed. The two leaders not only deceived Zuoqiu, but also deceived all of them. At that time, they really thought that the leader had no choice but to place his hopes on future generations because he had no other choice.
Now it seems that their situation has become smaller. The leaders have already seen through the future before making a decision, and even prepared everything for them.
However, as a result, their priority in facing the God-Eating Beast will change.
After determining that there was a way to cut off the opponent's reproductive ability, the God of Chaos became their primary target.
After all, there are tens of millions of God-devouring beasts in the world of high heaven. As many as you kill, they will reproduce. And as long as one fish slips through the net in the future, there is always the risk of the parasitic problem erupting again.
So rather than working tirelessly to eliminate tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of individual God-Eating Beasts, directly cutting off their reproductive capabilities is the real way to draw out the firepower.
In this way, the showdown with the God of Chaos will become extremely important.
Fortunately, the leaders have paved the way for them, and they have planned an individual like Mu You who can fight against the God of Chaos, and he also has a "cannot lose" buff.
Of course, it is not enough not to lose, you must be able to win. Otherwise, the God of Chaos will only need to delay time until a hundred years have passed, the great disaster will begin, most of the human race will die, and the Fool will lose its rear area. It will be difficult for them to compete with the God-Eating Beast.
The few people had a quick discussion with Mu You, and finally concluded that there were two routes in front of them.
The first is Mu You's own improvement. He needs to further strengthen his combat effectiveness and at the same time perfect the way of heaven as much as possible.
The more perfect his way of heaven is, the higher the chance that the God of Chaos will ascend to the stars after defeating him, and the more helpless he will be when facing him.
The second is the preparation of others.
The leaders can all detect the weaknesses of the God of Chaos, and the other party will only know better.
So the God of Chaos will definitely not take the initiative to appear in front of Mu You, but will hide deep in the lair of the God-Eating Beasts to protect their mother body.
They must find a way to create a one-on-one opportunity for Mu You with the God of Chaos.
"Let's figure out other things. The key now is your own improvement. Do you have any clues?" The leader of the administrator looked at Mu You.
"This is what I want to ask too... Do you know a place called the 'Heart of Time'?" Mu You took the opportunity to ask.
The Heart of Time was the reminder that the first generation leader told him at the end, saying that it would help him digest the divine bones better.
Mu You understood the meaning: if the time divine bone, a top-level authority, was directly fused like an ordinary divine bone, it would be a waste, and a large amount of divine power would be lost in the process.
The divine power of time directly affects his final perfection of the way of heaven, so he must find a way to extract a complete inheritance from the divine bones. This place called the ‘Heart of Time’ should be able to help him do this.
Unfortunately, I was too busy at the time and had no time to ask the man more details.
"Heart of Time?" The old man at the head thought silently, shook his head, and looked at the others: "Have you heard of it?"
"No…"
“Never heard of…”
…
Others also shook their heads in confusion.
Mu You was a little surprised. He thought that the old men who followed the leader must know what the first leader told him, but in the end, no one had heard of it...
Mu You had no choice but to bid farewell to a few people, returned home, logged into the game, found the Djinn God and the Blood God in the City of Order, and asked about them.
“The heart of time…well…”
Hearing this, the Djinn God scratched his head and cast an apologetic look, obviously not listening.
Mu You had no choice but to look at the Blood God again.
In the end, Lilith actually shook her head: "Sorry, I only know that this place is somewhat related to the God of Time, but I don't know the more specific information..."
“No way…” Mu You was surprised.
Several administrators don’t know, which can be understood as their lack of level, but the two gods don’t know either…
“Are you looking for the heart of time?”
On the desk not far away, Vivian, who was arranging her feathers, suddenly looked towards him.
“You know?” Mu You was stunned.
“Of course, I’ve been there before…” Vivian nodded.
It was only then that Mu You suddenly realized that the first time he heard about the 'Heart of Time' was not from the mouth of the first generation leader. Vivian had mentioned it when he captured the 'Heart of Time Fragment'.
“Great! Where is it?” Mu You hurriedly asked the location.
There was a trace of hesitation in Vivian's eyes.
"how?"
"I thought I would never have to go back to that place... Now it seems that this is God's will..." Vivian sighed.
Mu You is a little strange. It sounds like the experience in this place is not a happy memory for Vivian.
Vivian sighed for a moment and did not hide it: "The Heart of Time, as the name suggests, is the source of time. It is not in the world of high heaven, the world of stars and spirits, nor the land of oblivion, but in a world common to all living things in the three worlds. Place, in fact, we can come into contact with it every day, but everyone is not aware of it.”
“Three worlds are common, and you can come into contact with it every day...” Mu You was stunned, is there such a place?
Wait a minute, it seems like there really is...
The only thing all living things do every day is sleep, or 'dream'...dream?
“What a dream…”
Mu You had a strange expression on his face and subconsciously looked towards the sofa not far away.
At this moment, Mianmian was arranging the pillows on the sofa, preparing to have a good sleep. When she heard the conversation, she raised her head and cast an innocent look at the two of them. The so-called dream world is not far away from them.
According to Vivian, all backpack spaces are part of the dream world, a temporary space that is transformed from virtual to real.
Moreover, there are some people in the astral world who have the characteristic of ‘dream travel’ and can switch between the dream world and reality through dreaming.
For example, Mianmian is a dream traveler.
Of course, in addition to their special abilities, there is actually another way that allows ordinary people to enter the dream world in a awake manner, and that is the 'Dream Butterfly'.
Mu You flipped through the task list in the Star Spirit World, and in the column of forest elves, he found a task that had been left behind: The Mutation in Utopia.
This is a mission he accepted a long time ago. The content is probably that some kind of change has occurred in the dream world, and the high priest of the forest elves hopes that he can enter and investigate.
This task is actually not important. What is important is that this task provides a way to enter the dream world.
Previously, for this task, Mu You had specially cultivated a ‘Dream Butterfly Perch’ in the courtyard assigned to him by the elves. However, things got entangled with him and he never took care of the tree after it was planted.
Now that so much time has passed, I think there must have been a dream butterfly that has made its home on the perch.
Mu You then made some simple preparations. During this period, he controlled the character to successfully find the buried Time Divine Skeleton in an underground tomb in the Gaotian World according to the map provided by Hongxiu, and condensed it into Divine Bones.
The disappearance of the divine skeleton means that Dawn City will be completely unable to recover. Fortunately, Dawn City has no players in the first place.
After Hongxiu and Zuoqiu took Dawn City to mend the sky, Dawn City was quickly occupied by the surrounding giants. The two passed through the limit and transported the Time God's skeleton out immediately, allowing the God-Eating Beasts to pounce on it. Empty, today's Shuguang City is already an abandoned city.
After preparations were made, Mu You set off again the next day, heading to the Star Spirit Realm.
In addition to Lin Xue, there are also Vivian and Xiaoya who are with him this time. All four of them are going in person. The game characters are safe, but there are many restrictions. Such important things still have to be done in person.
Muyou originally planned to wear a chameleon helmet. Ava's brain is better than the human brain in many situations.
It's a pity that Ava has just evolved into a soul and does not yet have the advanced ability to dream. She is destined to be unable to accompany her this time.
After a period of dizziness, the four of them appeared in front of the teleportation array in Emerald City.
Mu You and Xiao Ya both worked in the Elf Clan, and Lin Xue also worked here for a period of time. After paying a sum of reputation, he temporarily gained the right to move freely in the city.
Mu You went straight to his elder’s courtyard.
The spacious Elf Courtyard is filled with colorful flowers and plants, but it looks a bit messy because it has not been taken care of for a long time.
Mu You stepped through the grass all over the ground, pushed aside all kinds of wildly growing plants along the road, and found the Dream Butterfly Perch deep in the courtyard.
At this moment, this small colorful tree, which was originally only three meters tall, has grown into a thick tree of more than 20 meters. The colorful branches grow freely in all directions, occupying most of the space in the entire courtyard.
At this moment, the perch was already covered with dense butterfly nests. As Mu You approached, a large number of butterflies were frightened and flew up. There were all kinds of butterflies, flying colorfully all over the sky, which was extremely spectacular.
Mu You ignored the butterflies that flew away. The nests were here and they would come back sooner or later. Instead, he carefully stared at the butterfly nests on the branches, using the omniscient crystal to distinguish them one by one.
"Dream Butterfly Nest...one, two, three...eight. That's enough."
Perhaps because this yard has been untouched for a long time and is more popular with wild butterflies, this perch has attracted at least eight dream butterflies to build a nest, which is enough for them to use.
Then the three of them and Vivian each captured a dream butterfly and made a magic contract to become a familiar. Then they took the dream butterfly to the center of the Emerald City to find the high priest Riley.
Riley has lived on the canopy of the World Tree for a long time. The four of them took the "Tree Ring Elevator" and climbed for half an hour before arriving.
“You are here…”
After a few months, when I saw the Elf High Priest again, Riley's appearance, dress, and rank were the same as before, with almost no change visible.
However, in Riley's eyes, after not seeing each other for a few months, the three of them have changed drastically.
Especially Mu You, when Riley first met him a year ago, he was still a rookie with less than level 10, but now, he has grown into a figure comparable to a god...
Looking at Mu You sighing with emotion, Riley came back to her senses and waved to a few people: "Come with me, I will take you to the 'Between Dreams'."
After speaking, he led them towards the center of the World Tree.
“Do you know why we are here?”
Mu You was a little surprised. They didn’t say anything when they came in...
"I only know that you are going to enter the dreamland. Of course I don't know the specific things you are going to do. After all, I am not even a fool. We are not allowed to know about things that are beyond the scope of the star spirit world. If we know about it, it will be deleted by the Catastrophe. Memory... But in fact, there are many important people who have been here before, and I can guess some of them if I see them a lot."
As Riley spoke, she led four people into a secret room hidden in the center of a tree trunk.
Inside the secret room, there were many wooden beds placed along the walls. Several elves were lying on some of the wooden beds, surrounded by dense branches to protect their bodies. They were all sleeping peacefully, and there was a zodiac hanging above each person's head. A dream butterfly, its wings opening and closing regularly.
"This is the 'Between Dreams', a dream place specially prepared for dream travelers. Just find a bed and lie down, and the dream butterflies will automatically take you into the dream." Riley pointed to the wooden objects deep in the hall. bed.
“Uh, who do you mean by the ‘big shot’ you just mentioned?” Mu You’s thoughts were still focused on the information Riley had accidentally revealed just now.
“The God of Order, the God of Time, the God of Chaos, and many other gods of the chaos system, one day many of them came with their families..."
Riley said: "Of course, that was all many epochs ago. After the gods were extinct, no gods came here anymore. I once thought that my role as a gatekeeper was useless... Until this era, there were several fools who gained divine power. I’ve been there once… and you’re the ones below.”
Riley did not hide anything and told all the information she knew.
Mu You pondered for a moment after hearing this. These gods who came here specifically are obviously here for the Heart of Time. There are gods from both good and evil sides. The Chaos faction still brought many people here. This is not like it. It was a normal visit, more like a fight for something. I couldn't beat him, so I gave him away...
As for the Fools who came here in this era, most of them were the two leaders from the first generation, and even Zuoqiu may have come here.
Considering the abilities they have shown, that is to say, these people who have entered the Heart of Time, regardless of whether they have obtained time authority, are likely to have passive time response capabilities similar to Vivian's.
There was only so much information that Riley could reveal. Muyou didn't ask any more questions. The four of them entered the house and each chose a nearby wooden bed to lie down on.
“By the way, your mission, we will complete it when we have time after we go in.” Mu You thought of this before going to sleep.
They generously informed him of a lot of information, but he didn't say anything.
“That mission...forget it.”
Riley smiled awkwardly and said: "It's over."
“It’s over?” Mu You was stunned.
"Yes, according to these travelers, three months ago, a pink... pig suddenly appeared in the dream world. This pig is said to not attack people and specializes in eating nightmares. All the sneaks who create nightmares are eaten by it. Now the dream world has returned to normal."
