Chapter 58: Catch with 58 grips To be precise, Xu Zimei’s purpose for coming to Ten Mile Town was for this Nightmare Beast. Dreams are a branch of the River of Time, and after reaching the Esteem Vein Realm in his past life, Xu Zimei should have set out on his own path of the Martial Path. But at that time, he was very confused about his Martial Path, hesitating and unable to take a further step on his own Martial Path. It was not until he arrived at Ten Mile Town by accident that the Nightmare Beast was not discovered so quickly in his past life, having had a long growth period, with its dream powers covering hundreds of miles. It was under the life-and-death crisis of the Nightmare Beast that Xu Zimei unintentionally understood the mysteries of the River of Time. Past, present, future! He carved out a Martial Path of his own and successfully created the Cultivation Technique “Sole Great Freedom Jue” that he now practices. The dreamscape of the Nightmare Beast greatly assisted Xu Zimei’s cultivation, and whether he could break through to the Divine Vein Realm and evolve his Martial Path to a higher realm, this Nightmare Beast played a crucial role. The dreamscape is one of the branches of the River of Time, just like when you are doing something in reality and suddenly realize that the scene you are in feels very familiar, as if you have experienced it a long time ago. If you think about it carefully, you will find that long before, you had seen a fragment or image of your future in a dream. It’s just that you were completely unaware of it at the time. In his past life, Xu Zimei captured this Nightmare Beast, which contributed indispensably to the evolution of his Martial Path. Yet the Nightmare Beast later died, but unexpectedly, in this new life, it still could not escape his Demon Palm.

Because the Nightmare Beast is still in its youth and only needs to devour one person’s dream a day for sustenance. The rest of the people are raised by it, ensuring that its food supply is not interrupted. …… Nightmare Beasts are extremely rare, and as far as Xu Zimei knows, there is only one place in the entire Yuan Central Continent that has a Nightmare Beast, and that is the Old Land. The Old Land is one of the Ten Great Forbidden Lands and has long been occupied by an organization called Divine Gate. In each era, apart from the Great Emperors of successive generations, there are only a few people who can enter the Old Land. …… “It seems you know quite a bit,” Hu Yingying said with a look of surprise as she watched Xu Zimei. Then she waved her right hand, and a pale white Spiritual Energy filled the air around her, as the Nightmare Beast roared towards the sky. Its smooth body soared towards Xu Zimei. Seeing this, Xiao Guizi quickly grabbed his iron stick and executed the “Mad Demon Stick Technique,” with layers of stick shadows stacking up like mountains, leaving a “whoosh whoosh” sound in the air. Dark black Spiritual Energy surged on the iron stick, which forcefully smashed down on the body of the Nightmare Beast. But what was strange was that the Nightmare Beast did not dodge or evade, and the iron stick actually went straight through its body, hitting nothing. The Nightmare Beast’s mouth opened slightly and emitted “plop plop plop” bubble-like sonic waves. Xiao Guizi instantly started bleeding from all orifices, feeling as if a huge stone was hurtling towards him. He was sent flying, his body heavily crashing into the door of the house. Immediately afterward, Xiao Guizi leapt up into the air, wiped the blood from his face, and looked at the Nightmare Beast with a grave expression. “You all step back, ordinary attacks are useless against it,” Xu Zimei waved his hand and said. Nightmare Beasts actually don’t exist in the real world; they reside in Dimensional Space, which allows them to devour others’ dreams at will. Spiritual Energy surged within Xu Zimei as three Vein Gates simultaneously opened – this was the first time he was using the power that truly belonged to him. The power of “Sole Great Freedom Jue” stemmed from the River of Time, strands of Space-time Force permeated the palm of his hand. Watching the Nightmare Beast charging toward him, Xu Zimei concentrated the Space-time Force in his hand into a large net, enveloping the entire Nightmare Beast within it. The Nightmare Beast let out a roar, its small mouth blowing out small bubbles of sound waves intermittently. Xu Zimei smiled faintly, as the Space-time net in his hand began to condense, the Nightmare Beast shrieked, its body also shrinking bit by bit. Eventually reduced to the size of a fist, Xu Zimei grabbed the Nightmare Beast and directly placed it into his mouth. Since advancing to the True Vein Realm, he had carved out a space within his body, somewhat akin to a martial artist’s dantian. Within this space, countless points of light shone, like the stars in the night sky, dazzling and captivating. Once Xu Zimei opens another Vein Gate and advances to the Empty Vein Realm, he will be able to condense True Fate. And these speckles of stars were the Taoist Charm for Condensing True Fate. At this moment, the Nightmare Beast had been devoured into this space, frantically struggling and colliding, but to no avail. Because the Dimensional Space it occupied was not in the same dimension as the space inside Xu Zimei’s body. Simply put, the space it was in had been confined by the space within Xu Zimei’s body, drifting endlessly within this space, unable to escape. “What have you done?” Hu Yingying’s complexion changed drastically. She tried to summon the Nightmare Beast, but found that the connection between them had been severed. “Shall we discuss another matter?” Xu Zimei asked with a smile. “What matter?” Hu Yingying took a few steps back, asking with a suspicious and startled tone. “You help me bring out another Nightmare Beast, and I’ll spare your life,” Xu Zimei said. “In your dreams,” Hu Yingying snorted coldly and then jumped straight out of the window beside her. Xu Zimei slowly drew the Tyrant Shadow from behind his back, and a slash of his blade seemed to turn space itself into a sliver of sky. The dark blade light, carrying the Qi of Annihilation, struck Hu Yingying’s back directly. Similarly, a black aura emanated from Hu Yingying’s body, followed by the appearance of a sinister black air-condensed face in mid-air. That face stared at Xu Zimei intently for a moment, then transformed into a stream of polar light, fleeing far away. Xiao Guizi, holding an iron stick, was about to pursue but was stopped by Xu Zimei. “Don’t go, I’m waiting for her to bring another Nightmare Beast to seek revenge on me next time,” Xu Zimei said with a smile. He gazed in the direction where the black mist vanished, hearing that the people of Divine Gate were all rolling in wealth. They occupied the Old Land, one of the Forbidden Lands, which, despite its dangers, was also full of opportunities. As the black fog departed, Hu Yingying’s body also fell to the side, Ministry Councillor Hu immediately rushed over and picked up his daughter. “It’s too late, she’s already dead,” Xu Zimei said, shaking his head as he looked into Ministry Councillor Hu’s pleading eyes. Then he took the harmonica from Hu Yingying’s body, because the Nightmare Beast was in its juvenile phase, the dream it constructed had many flaws. Therefore, it necessitated the playing of this harmonica to perform the Requiem, numbing the senses of the people within that dream.
