"General Xi Zhong, what do you think?"
As expected of Chanyou, she remained calm on the surface despite Li Yao's formidable strength, and did not rush to answer Li Yao's question.
Actually, she was looking for a way to back down gracefully.
After all, as the ruler of the Illusionary Dream Realm, she could not immediately yield to Li Yao's threats.
How will she manage her subordinates in the future?
"Since they have no ill intentions toward our Illusionary Realm, it wouldn't hurt to let them see the Dream Vessel."
"Of course, this is just my humble opinion."
"Whatever decision the clan leader makes, your subordinates will absolutely support it!"
Xi Zhong had followed Chan You for many years, so he naturally understood Chan You's thoughts.
Therefore, he immediately gave Chanyou a way out.
"Alright, since General Xi Zhong agrees, then you may follow me!"
Chanyou descended the steps.
Unexpectedly, the black-armored man beside him suddenly spoke up: "Clan leader, this is absolutely unacceptable!"
Chapter 508 Might Makes Perfect
Chanyou was surprised when the black-armored warrior suddenly spoke up to stop her.
However, she immediately shouted sharply, "Gui Xie, you don't need to say anything more, my mind is made up."
"yes!"
Gui Xie had no choice but to reluctantly lower his head.
"Return to evil?"
"Are you Gui Xie?"
"Hundreds of years ago, the Qionghua Sect invaded the Illusionary Dream Realm. Didn't you die in battle?"
Li Yao looked at Gui Xie with a puzzled expression.
"Who exactly are you?"
"This matter happened hundreds of years ago, how do you know it so clearly?"
Chanyou was shocked once again.
This time, she wasn't shocked by Li Yao's terrifying strength.
It was because Li Yao actually knew about major events that happened hundreds of years ago.
This happened hundreds of years ago, and the entire Qionghua Sect has perished.
The disciples of the Qionghua Sect were all thrown into the East Sea whirlpool by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and imprisoned.
Almost no one in the human world knows about this old story.
How did the other party find out?
"You don't need to ask how I know about this; it's pointless to ask."
Li Yao's words left Chan You speechless for a moment.
But what could she do?
Li Yao's strength is undeniable; you have absolutely no initiative.
Therefore, she had no choice but to suppress her doubts.
"By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. What exactly is this Gui Xie?"
Li Yao pointed to Gui Xie, who was wearing a full set of black armor.
This made Chanyou even more depressed.
Her questions were completely ignored.
She had no choice but to answer the other person's questions.
This is so unfair.
But there was nothing she could do.
Whoever has the stronger fist, might makes right.
So she had no choice but to explain:
"As you probably know, our Illusionary Realm has always had six great generals."
"The one who oversees the winds of time, the one who oversees sacrifices and strikes the wrecked, the one who oversees literature and Xi Zhong, the one who oversees punishment and Ji Po, the one who oversees armor and returns to evil, and the one who oversees justice and Ying You."
"When the Qionghua Sect first invaded the Illusionary Dream Realm, Mingfeng, Jican, Jipo, and Yingyou all unfortunately died in battle."
"The Qionghua Sect's last invasion of the Illusionary Dream Realm resulted in the unfortunate death of Gui Xie, leaving only Xi Zhong among the six great generals."
"And the six great generals, who command all the warriors of our Illusionary Dream Realm, cannot be left vacant."
"Therefore, I later selected outstanding unnamed warriors from among all the soldiers to fill the vacancies of these five generals."
"These six generals are just titles; there is no specific designation of which Dream Eater warrior they refer to!"
After hearing Chanyou's explanation, Li Yao nodded in understanding.
In other words, the Gui Xie we see now is not the Gui Xie from Legend of Sword and Fairy 4.
Gui Xie is just a code name!
Whoever Chanyou wants to be Guixie will become Guixie.
The same applies to Xi Zhong.
Of course, the Xi Zhong of today is still the Xi Zhong from Sword and Fairy 4.
"Alright, Clan Chief Chanyou, now let's go and appreciate the Dream-Seeing Vessel!"
Li Yao said to Chan You.
"Alright, please follow me!"
Although Chanyou was extremely unwilling, she dared not easily offend Li Yao.
As they traveled, Li Yao and Xiao Bai both noticed that the area was filled with purple.
It's absolutely true that the Illusionary Dream Realm is a purple world.
There are almost no flowers, plants, or trees here; basically, everywhere you look there are spiritual amethyst stones that cultivators of immortality crave.
Even the houses here are basically built of amethyst.
The entire Illusionary Realm was like a constantly rotating world, spiraling and extending towards its deepest point until, at the very bottom, a colossal palace appeared before Li Yao and Xiao Bai.
Outside the palace were many Dream Eater warriors of various appearances. When they saw Chanyou, they would all bow respectfully.
At the same time, they also cast questioning glances at Li Yao and Xiao Bai.
They were very puzzled as to why their chieftain had brought back two humans.
However, despite their confusion, they deeply admired and revered Chanyou, and dared not question their clan leader.
Led by Chanyou, Li Yao and Xiaobai entered the palace.
The palace walls were decorated with amethyst, making it both magnificent and mysterious.
Chanyou said, "This is the Illusionary Meditation Palace. Since the Dream-Seeing Vessel is the treasure of our Illusionary Meditation Realm, it must not be shown to others easily. It can only be entered into the Inner Illusionary Meditation Palace."
"Clan leader, the Illusionary Meditation Palace is a sacred place in the Illusionary Meditation Realm. Even our own clansmen are not allowed to enter. We hope you will reconsider!"
Gui Xie clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.
"Gui Xie, I have already said it, you don't need to say anything more!"
Chanyou said coldly.
Then, she waved her hands and chanted: "Dreams, shadows, mist, and flowers are all emptiness. Only when the mind stirs with thought do all things come into being, and thus... emptiness and reality are formed!"
Then, a cloud of purple smoke rose out of thin air.
In the blink of an eye, Li Yao and Xiao Bai found themselves in another, smaller palace.
The hall was filled with amethyst stones of various shapes, their color a deeper shade than those outside. In the center of the hall was a slowly rotating purple sphere of light.
"Little White, have you noticed that the power here seems very familiar?"
Looking at the amethyst stones around him and the purple sphere of light rotating in the center of the hall, Li Yao immediately felt a familiar power.
This power shares the same aura as some other power he had encountered before.
"I felt it too!"
Xiao Bai frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then her eyes lit up and she said, "Could this be..."
"You're right, that's the power!"
"I never expected that we would encounter that power here!"
"It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly!"
Li Yao smiled slightly.
"Young Master Li, what are you talking about?"
Chanyou asked in confusion.
On the way, she had already learned Li Yao and Xiao Bai's names.
"nothing!"
Li Yao shook his head and said, "I wonder where the dream vessel is?"
"Please wait a moment!"
Chanyou sighed softly, shook her head slightly, then turned to Xizhong and solemnly said, "Xizhong, go and fetch the 'Dream Vessel'."
