Infernal Artist

On the stage, light and shadow linger.

Liu Ping was watching quietly when he suddenly heard the sound of a magic spell coming from outside several doors of the opera house, mixed with shouts and the sound of metal hitting the mechanism being locked.

Someone shouted loudly: "Out of control! The dream... invaded..."

It doesn't sound real.

Because the various sounds of music in the opera house became louder, covering all the sounds outside.

"Be careful, this dream seems to have changed." Andrea whispered.

Her eyes turned into vertical pupils emitting a deep golden light, and her aura increased several times. She leaned forward slightly, as if if something happened, she would stand in front of Liu Ping.

——It seems that the Dragon Crystal is indeed useful.

Liu Ping also put his hand on the handle of the knife, secretly alert.

The next second.

The music on the stage suddenly became softer and even faded away, as if something awe-inspiring was happening.

A vague image of a woman appeared in the center of the stage.

Holding a big black flag in her hand, she walked down from the stage step by step and stood opposite Liu Ping.

Huh...huh...

The woman gasped, her whole body trembling, and said: "Don't let me... disappear..."

The words just fell.

All music suddenly stopped.

The light and shadow dissipate.

All sights cease to exist.

The door of the opera house opened with a bang, and two groups of people filed in. One group rushed to the stage, using various magic techniques to explore something.

The other team came to Liu Ping.

"Sir, are you okay?" the leader asked.

He was wearing a gorgeous, colorful dress and holding a glass of wine in his hand. He looked like he had just arrived from a banquet.

Above his head, a line of small words was floating there: "Prisoner."

"It's okay - who are you?" Liu Ping asked.

"I am the owner of the Opera House. Everyone calls me the old drunkard." The man said.

He took out the cards one by one and conducted various tests on Liu Ping, and finally found that everything was normal.

The team on stage also shouted: "No power left!"

Everyone seemed to be relieved.

The old drunkard then said: "Sir, dreams are uncontrollable. There are many unpredictable dangers in them. After all, dreams contain everything."

"Do dreams affect reality?" Liu Ping asked.

"Generally speaking, no, we are also guarding against this." The old drunkard said.

Liu Ping remained silent for several breaths.

The woman holding the flag just now was a rain of blood.

But something feels wrong.

Coupled with God's warning, I felt a little uneasy.

if--

"Is there any way you can...let me go to Dreamland?" Liu Ping asked.

"You want to go to Dreamland? It's not cheap." The old drunkard said unexpectedly.

not cheap.

That's okay to go.

Liu Ping felt relieved and said, "Make a price and let me enter the dreamland."

"We can't guarantee which time or place you will appear in the dream - even so, do you still want to go?" the old drunkard said.

"Go." Liu Ping said.

The old drunkard looked at him intently, suddenly smiled and said: "As long as we have money, we will be your loyal servants."

"Don't worry about money." Liu Ping said.

The old drunkard took a sip from his glass, pulled out a card from his arms, threw it into the air, and then ordered to the left and right: "Arrange it for this gentleman."

"Yes." The people on the left and right responded.

The old drunkard nodded at Liu Ping, turned around and walked outside, saying without looking back: "The dream is so wonderful, I have found my love, and I can't wait to have a tryst with the beautiful woman. I also wish you all the best in the dream." joy."

he's gone.

"This guy looks like he's drunk too much." Andrea whispered.

Liu Ping looked at the card suspended in mid-air.

I saw colorful bubbles painted on the cards.

These bubbles keep bursting and popping up again, flying far away with the wind in the sky in the card.

Dream card.

It's really rare, I've never seen a card like this.

"I guess... the ability to connect to dreams is still very rare. With this ability, he can survive steadily."

Liu Ping concluded.

…

After looting the warehouse in the ruined market, Liu Ping still had a lot of money in his hands.

He paid enough.

The old drunkard's men immediately jumped on the stage and retuned all the unoccupied instruments.

Everything is ready.

They also set up various large-scale seals and isolation barriers around the stage.

"Okay, Your Excellency." A staff member said.

"What should I do?" Liu Ping asked.

"Standing on the stage, dreams are immediately triggered."

"How long?"

"The flow of time in dreams is completely different from reality. It's different every time, and we have no way of knowing."

"Okay, then I'm on."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! You can start again after we get out."

The staff exited the hall like a storm, slammed the door, and stood outside to perform various sealing spells.

Liu Ping and Andrea looked at each other.

The other party was so cautious that the two of them couldn't help but become a little nervous.

"I'm hiding. I'll show up at any time if there's a fight." Andrea said.

"Okay." Liu Ping said.

Andrea turned into a card and flew back to the card book.

Liu Ping glanced at the void.

Killed the intelligence merchant and got 80 collection points.

But he promised the bloody skeleton not to summon it for the time being.

If there is a battle later, just summon whoever you can.

Liu Ping moved and landed on the stage.

The card floating in the air suddenly emitted rays of light and turned into a curtain, covering the entire stage.

A line of small burning characters quickly appeared:

"Entering dreamland, please wait."

The surroundings turned into boundless darkness.

Quiet.

Sudden--

God's voice quietly sounded: "Ah, he is back."

"Really? Liu Ping, are you back?" Gaia's voice sounded.

"It's not easy to live in this world. Unfortunately, even dreams have problems, tsk tsk." This was Master Pao's voice.

"Liu Ping, can I go to the other world with you?"

——This cautious voice is the fairy princess Rita.

Liu Ping was about to answer when he heard God make a serious voice:

"Don't say anything, that existence is coming."

in the dark.

All the stars gathered together and turned into a huge star head.

——Dream Guardian!

"Welcome, Liu Ping, come with me immediately." it said hurriedly.

"Your Excellency, you are in charge of the dream. You should be an invincible existence in the dream. Why are you so eager?" Liu Ping asked puzzledly.

"I can control everything in the dream, but if a being like me gets close to it, the flag will immediately sense my power and release other evil demons." Star Head said with emotion.

Countless scenes of regression appeared around the two of them.

All virtual time and space in the dream began to recede, and a world belonging to practitioners appeared in front of Liu Ping.

"Go on, be sure to appease it, otherwise it will definitely penetrate the dream and enter the other world."

The dream guardian said.

"I'm going to check on the situation." Liu Ping said.

He straightened up, swooped down, and instantly entered a world.

Practice the world!

"Three thousand miles to the southeast, on the lonely peak!" God said.

Liu Ping turned into a stream of light, penetrated the strong wind, flew three thousand miles in an instant, and landed on the solitary peak.

I saw thunder rolling from the sky, lightning flashing, and figures of women flying back and forth among the clouds of calamity.

Demon!

Liu Ping's heart skipped a beat and he looked under the lone tree on the top of the mountain.

I saw Xueyu sitting cross-legged, with various expressions of pain on his face.

These damn demons!

You don't mess with so many people who are crossing the tribulation, but you come to embarrass her. Isn't this looking for death?

Liu Ping was about to take action when he saw seven or eight demons suddenly appear on Xue Yu's body.

They screamed in panic: "It's over, there is something hidden behind her soul -"

boom!

Waves of surging dark light emerged from Xueyu's body.

The black blood flag quietly appeared, waving endlessly in the wind.

It seems like something is about to happen!

Liu Ping thought about lightning in his mind, stretched out his hand to grab it, and immediately grabbed his original saber.

Suppress the prison!

He swung the prison knife and slashed towards the void with all his strength.

Swish——

The sword flashed.

The whole world suddenly turned into a stream of light rushing away.

Liu Ping held the long knife tightly and kept moving towards time. He calculated a certain moment and jumped down!

On the lonely peak.

Bitter wind and cold rain.

His body was soaked by the rain, and he knelt on the ground, his face full of pain.

"I am..."

"The one who ends all things and all living beings..."

"Why... take action..."

"Why! Why!"

She whimpered and growled, and the echoes echoed across the mountains.

Liu Ping's expression gradually changed.

In just a few words, he could immediately deduce the cause and effect.

in this case--

Is Xue Yu a human or a demon now?

Liu Ping suddenly remembered the scene he saw in the opera.

"Don't let me... disappear..."

The woman holding the black flag begged.

Liu Ping thought for a few breaths, took a few steps forward, and squatted down in front of the bloody rain.

"You are looking for death." Xue Yu said through gritted teeth with red eyes.

Liu Ping said: "The battle between us is far from over. If you want to catch up with me earlier, you must master the following techniques."

He stretched out his hand and formed an initiation seal.

"I'm going to kill you!" Xue Yu roared and rushed towards Liu Ping.

However, before she could use the magic technique, she was already held down by Liu Ping and could no longer use it.

Liu Ping stared at her and said:

"I know that you are unwilling to be abandoned by those evil spirits in this dream. Only by killing me can you wash away your shame and return to your original identity..."

He pinched the initiation seal with his other hand and hovered it between Xueyu's eyebrows.

"Accept these techniques. They are my martial arts. They can help you become stronger - at least you will not be taken advantage of by the demons, and you may be able to defeat me in the future."

Xueyu listened quietly, the murderous intent on his face rising again and again, but his hands were held tightly and he could not move at all.

"You teach me the Dharma..." she said.

"Yes, it comes from me. It is the only way to kill me. Do you dare to take it?" Liu Ping asked.

A rain of blood met his eyes.

The rain covered everything, reflecting the ever-changing mist in Liu Ping's eyes, revealing an emotionless coldness.

"Why don't you dare!"

Xueyu closed his eyes and touched Liu Ping's fingertips between his brows.

Battle techniques, knowledge, and techniques poured into her mind like an ocean, one after another, as if she had already mastered these things.

——The initiation is completed!
