Chapter 291 The arrival of the spirit, the battle in the dream

A demon!

After the previous gathering of the Zhoutian Patrol Division, Zhou Heng went to the Five Emperors' Inner Seat to learn some information about the types of demons in order to avoid being at a loss when encountering demons.

The demon is one of them.

This kind of demon is invisible and intangible without a real body. It wanders in the spiritual world and is good at constructing various illusions to defeat the weaknesses of people's hearts and then devour the souls of people who are confused by the illusions.

Previously, Zhou Heng tried to use his spiritual sense to explore Yuxiang Town, and immediately alarmed the demon "Huo Mang" entrenched here, which involved his soul and dragged him into the illusion.

It was just that Zhou Heng knew from the beginning that this was an attack by the demon and mastered some of the demon's confusing methods, so he was not really confused.

However, pretending to be confused and attacking it by surprise is undoubtedly an excellent way to respond.

At this time, the Immortal Seal and the Heaven-shaking and Earth-shaking Great Method were performed at the same time, and Zhou Heng's spirit smashed the demon like a giant hammer.

Faced with this sudden attack, the inner demon that had transformed into Yan Shouyi had no time to react. It was as if it was hit by a heavy hammer, and its head exploded immediately.

Then his entire "person" twisted into a ball of black smoke and disappeared.

The inner demon escaped.

The scene in front of Zhou Heng also collapsed bit by bit, whether it was the towering Taihua Mountain that reached the sky, or the extremely terrifying monster, or the body of Cheng Jiangjian lying not far away, they all shattered quickly.

In a flash, the scene in front of Zhou Heng returned to normal. He was still sitting on the red horse and still stayed outside Yuxiang Town. In fact, he didn't move at all.

Everything he "saw" just now was a mental illusion created by the inner demon "Huo Mang".

That illusion was extremely powerful and could interfere with people's normal thinking ability. If it were an ordinary seventh-grade peak warrior, it would be very likely that the inner demon would directly devour his soul.

"I didn't expect there would be a demon here." Zhou Heng frowned slightly, turned over and dismounted, snapped his fingers and put the red horse into the cave, "And from the feedback of the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Strike Great Method just now, this demon is infinitely close to the sixth level of the Secret, this Yuxiang Town..."

He thought for a while and decided to walk into the town.

Previously, Zhou Heng used his spiritual sense to explore the situation in Yuxiang Town. Although he soon encountered the demon "Huo Mang", he still sensed some situations in that short period of time.

The streets of the entire Yuxiang Town were deserted. Almost everyone was lying in bed at home, snoring. Many of them frowned, looked painful, and unconsciously clenched their chests.

This is a nightmare.

Zhou Heng already knew where the demon came from. Most likely it came from the nightmare of the people in Yuxiang Town - the nightmare of any living being may breed monsters.

Now tens of thousands of people in Yuxiang Town are having nightmares, and they are also affected by the previous demon. If they are not dealt with, I am afraid that many monsters will soon breed.

"Either wake up the people of Yuxiang Town, or find the demon." Zhou Heng thought of two solutions and walked into Yuxiang Town at a fast pace.

But as soon as he stepped into the town, he felt the dark demonic energy rising from behind him, blocking the retreat route behind him, making it impossible for him to return to the entrance and exit of Yuxiang Town.

"Human, do you want to save the people here?" The voice of the inner demon sounded out of thin air, as if it was everywhere, covering every corner of Yuxiang Town, "I advise you not to seek death."

"You didn't escape?" Zhou Heng laughed and said, "That's perfect. I wanted to chase you and kill you now. I can just kill you."

"Hahaha!" The inner demon laughed, and its voice echoed in the void, "Human, if you hurt me, one person here will die. Do you want to try?

"What's more, with your current cultivation level, I'm afraid you can't find me at all. Don't even think about waking these humans from their dreams. When they wake up from their dreams, they will die!"

"Are you trying to provoke me?" Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought to himself, "The inner demon is good at drilling holes in people's hearts, which is somewhat similar to ghosts. Be careful of being tricked.

"However, this inner demon is invisible and intangible, wandering in the spiritual world. It is probably in the dreams of the people in Yuxiang Town. How should I find it?

"The best way is to sneak into the dreams of the people in Yuxiang Town, find the existence of this inner demon, kill it, and then wake up the people here. "

But dreams have always been Zhou Heng's weakness.

Compared to more direct mental attack methods such as the Immortal Seal and the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Strike Great Method, the dream method is more delicate, more mysterious, and more elusive and unpredictable.

Except for using the real dream training card, he has almost no in-depth understanding of dreams.

For a while, Zhou Heng really couldn't find a place to start.

In fact, it is not difficult for him to leave here. He can easily break the demonic energy that blocks the way.

But he doesn't want to let go of the inner demon "Huo Mang" just like that, nor does he want to ignore the lives of tens of thousands of people, and it is even more impossible to let more monsters breed here.

This is the responsibility of the members of the Zhoutian Patrol Division, and it is also out of his own human nature.

"Human, are you thinking about how to deal with me?" Fu Mang saw Zhou Heng's emotional changes and sneered: "Give up, with your meager cultivation and your spirit that has not yet transcended the body, it is impossible to find I.

"You can only watch helplessly as my companions come out of these human dreams one by one, and finally surround them completely and devour them all."

"Hmph!" Zhou Heng snorted coldly and remained silent.

However, he was also sensing the surrounding situation and detecting the aura of the people in Yuxiang Town.

He could feel that although the people of Yuxiang Town still had spiritual aura, their physical vitality had declined to an extremely low level, almost approaching the state of dead corpses.

According to Zhou Heng's estimation, if they cannot be awakened within three days and given enough influence, these tens of thousands of people may never wake up.

The inner demon "Fu Mang" must lead many monsters out of the dream before then, otherwise the dream will naturally collapse when everyone here is dead.

"If what I have predicted is correct, I am afraid that many monsters have gathered in the dreams of the people in Yuxiang Town now." Zhou Heng thought to himself, "As long as there is a suitable opportunity, Fu Mang can bring this unknown number of monsters with him." The monsters surged out."

That would be a huge disaster.

The spiritual pollution brought by monsters is much more powerful than ghosts and evil objects of the same level.

Not to mention ordinary warriors, even those at the top of the seventh rank or even the sixth rank secret masters would have to stay away when faced with the mental pollution of a large number of monsters at the same time.

In fact, normally speaking, with Zhou Heng's level of cultivation, when he sees an inner demon that is infinitely close to the sixth level of secret, he may actually have a splitting headache and find it difficult to stand.

But he had the cave world protection that contained the Tao of the Sun, so he was not affected at all.

This may not be the case for others.

Moreover, monsters are extremely difficult to kill. Like ghosts and evil objects, normal martial arts methods cannot kill them at all.

If a large number of monsters really emerge, it may be a disaster with heavy casualties for Longzhou, which is not very prosperous.

"Why, are you helpless?" Fu Mang's voice suddenly sounded from behind Zhou Heng, and he said with a wanton smile: "Why don't you join us, I can sublimate you into a demon.

"Instead of being human beings, helplessly watching their own race turn into corpses, why not break away from the original race and become a more advanced race?"

This inner demon is actually bewitching Zhou Heng, and threatens to turn humans into monsters.

"snort!"

Zhou Heng was unmoved and responded directly with his own actions.

He didn't look back, but just moved his fingers, and golden light burst out, and the sword energy came out vertically and horizontally.

Innate phaseless sword pointing!

This sword energy contained strong pure Yang power, and it hit the entrance and exit of Yuxiang Town with a roar, instantly dispersing the demonic energy that blocked the area.

Immediately, Zhou Heng rushed towards the entrance and exit in a flash, and actually left Yuxiang Town directly. He summoned the bay red horse, turned into a ball of fire, and galloped away from here.

"This human actually escaped. Could it be that he was looking for a helper who could enter dreams?" Fu Mang was confused and thought to himself, "It seems I have to speed up.

"Hmph, if that hateful woman hadn't been causing trouble in the dream and attacking and killing my kindred, I would have successfully opened the portal and led the demons to come!"

…

After Zhou Heng left Yuxiang Town, he flew straight into the sky with white crane feathers and rushed towards the nearest entrance to Ziwei Palace.

He wasn't running away.

It was his previous encounter with the people in Xiang Town and Fu Mang's words that gave him an inspiration.

Since the condition of the people in Yuxiang Town is close to the state of corpses, does that mean that the newly opened authority of Ziwei Palace can be used to descend into the corpses of the people in Yuxiang Town with consciousness?

The nature of Ziwei Palace transcends all the heavens and all realms. In theory, it should also be higher than this world. The Avenue of Stars is actually the empirical evidence, which is equivalent to a star gate that does not cross realms.

Therefore, the authority he obtained previously to use his soul to descend to other worlds can probably be applied to this world.

Is it possible to achieve spiritual "invasion" through the arrival of this soul, thereby achieving an effect similar to falling into a dream?

Zhou Heng feels that this method is worth a try regardless of whether it succeeds or not.

After arriving at Ziwei Palace as quickly as possible and meeting Tai Zun and Tianli, Zhou Heng once again opened the door for the arrival of the soul in Yuntai Square in front of Ziwei Palace.

Then, he walked in directly.

He became the first user of this divine soul star gate.

After entering it, Zhou Heng felt that his soul came out of his body. His body was wrapped in a ball of starlight, and his soul perceived a strange and bizarre world.

What appeared in Zhou Heng's soul's perception were thousands of spheres that seemed to shine with the light of stars. They were densely packed all over the void, giving people different feelings.

Some light balls are dark and obscure, making it difficult to detect the situation inside, some give people a warm and sunny feeling, and some are full of destruction and killing... all kinds and different.

Zhou Heng could feel that these light balls were actually different worlds. As long as he touched these light balls, he would be able to descend into them in the form of soul possession.

But at the same time, he also realized that he could actually touch very few light balls, only a small part of the whole, and he could not fully understand the situation in these worlds.

"It should be that it has not had time to synchronize with the information of the Zhoutian Star Map, so it is impossible to obtain specific world information." Zhou Heng thought about it for a while and thought of the reason.

——Whether it is an ordinary star gate or this soul star gate, the world it leads to is actually recorded through the Zhoutian Star Map, so it is natural to synchronize the information.

However, for Zhou Heng now, the most important thing is to solve the matter of Yuxiang Town first. Fortunately, the situation is just as he expected. This soul star gate can indeed lead to this world.

The mechanism is somewhat similar to the Starlight Bridge. It can only be diffused and explored based on the original Ziwei Palace channel.

If the range is too large and the distance is too far, it will not be able to descend.

This makes Zhou Heng a little worried that Yuxiang Town will fail to descend because it is too far away from the Ziwei Palace channel.

Fortunately, Yuxiang Town is at the edge of the limit of the exploration range.

It can descend.

So Zhou Heng chose the weakest person in Yuxiang Town.

Soul possession descends!

…

In the dreams of the people in Yuxiang Town, there is a town that is exactly the same as the outside.

It’s just that it is shrouded in dark fog. No one can walk out of the town, and no one can dispel the fog.

It is different from the deserted Yuxiang Town in reality.

The Yuxiang Town in the dream is still lively, and the people are walking on the streets, talking to each other, laughing, as usual, just like living in reality.

But if you look closely, you will find that these people have stiff expressions and dull eyes, as if they are puppets, being controlled by something.

And, every time these people make a move or say a word, their faces will turn pale, as if they have consumed a lot.

Boom!

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from a house on the street, the house collapsed, and the wall collapsed.

Then a scroll with a silver glow and a picture of all kinds of beings rushed out of the ruins, stretched out, and covered more than a dozen people on the street.

At the same time, three strange-looking and extremely twisted monsters appeared above the heads of the dozen people. As soon as they touched the scroll, black smoke suddenly came out of their bodies and they screamed miserably.

It turned out that there were monsters above the heads of the people in Yuxiang Town, controlling their actions in the dream while also continuing their spirits and souls.

"Demons, die!"

A sharp shout came, exploding on the street, startling more than a dozen monsters of all sizes.

Then, a figure rushed out after the scroll, but it was a woman.

She had a beautiful face, a slender figure, and a holy glow all over her body.

It was Yunxiu.

"Human! You are courting death!" Huomang came back and was immediately furious.
