Chapter 67 Dream World
"This world is not as simple as you think. It's my fault for not explaining it to you clearly from the beginning. After all, the relationship between planes is difficult to explain using the scientific theories of the material world."
"Of course, you probably wouldn't understand if I used unscientific language."
Chang Lei pondered how to explain this clearly, and after carefully considering his words, he continued speaking.
"You can think of it this way: on a horizontal line, the center is where the real world is located, and it is also its anchor point. Below the horizontal line, there are many realms of deep space, which are commonly known as 'small worlds'."
"The surface world and the inner world that you know are both planes hidden below the horizon, realms that are difficult for beings in the material world to reach."
"Is the Reversal World included?" Tang Zijun listened attentively, even adopting the same attitude he had when he was in school.
"No, the mirror plane is a special case. Unlike the inner world and the outer world, the mirror plane is an existence that is in the same position as the real world but at a different anchor point."
Chang Lei clasped his hands together and explained.
"Just like braiding hair, the real world and the reversed world are intertwined and connected to each other, but without special abilities, they are still invisible to each other."
"Is it similar to a parallel world?" Tang Zijun asked curiously.
"As I've said before, scientific theories about the material world are very difficult to explain these things. You just need to know that the inverted world and the real world are on the same level, and below them is the surface world, and below that is the inner world."
"I understand. The surface world is a buffer zone between the real world and the inner world." Tang Zijun remembered that Xiaobai had mentioned this point.
"That's right. These worlds started as nothingness. Even if relative laws were born, no life could survive in such an environment. The power that truly allowed these small worlds to form a group came from—"
"Emotions." Tang Zijun already knew what Chang Lei wanted to say.
"This is it."
Chang Lei nodded heavily.
"Although I'm not entirely sure where they originated, what I'm certain of is that all the bizarre is a reflection of human emotions in the real world."
"Whether they are heretics or rulers, they are all beings without physical form, including even us greedy ones."
"The only difference is that the greedy are more closely connected to reality. Unlike those things that have no physical form, we have afterimages."
Listening to Chang Lei's explanation, Tang Zijun thoughtfully pushed up her glasses.
Indeed, as Chang Lei said, the feeling of fighting the Outer Demon was quite different from when he fought the Greedy One back then.
"When these evil thoughts develop their own consciousness, they will gain some special supernatural powers depending on the plane they are in. But you should understand that just like fish cannot live without water, these consciousnesses cannot live without the negative energy of the real world."
"Human negative emotions give them life, and similarly, this special pheromone is the energy they rely on for survival, which is also the main reason why the real world is invaded."
Tang Zijun had some knowledge of these things back then.
He wasn't someone who didn't do any homework; it's just that at that time he thought the only enemy was the Mirror Dimension.
"Just like the surface world acts as a buffer between the inner world and the real world, since the inverted world is at the same horizontal level as the real world, the inner world and the surface world inevitably intersect with the inverted world when they invade reality."
"This convergence makes the Reversal World a special existence, much like a central hub."
"In other words, any horizontal line that is lower than the plane of the Reverse World can open a corresponding passage in the Reverse World as long as the mirror is used as a medium."
At this point, Chang Lei's mouth felt a little dry, so he picked up his cup and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
Tang Zijun, sitting opposite him, fell silent, her mind racing as she processed the complex information.
No wonder Xiaobai was terrified and didn't know how to enter the surface world. He just followed his sister's aura and quickly opened the corresponding passage.
It now seems that it is because the level or horizontal position of the Reverse World is higher than that of the Surface World that it can come and go freely, and even pull the Dominator out of the Surface World.
According to this argument, those who are greedy in the reverse world should theoretically be able to enter the inner world at any time.
Seemingly sensing Tang Zijun's thoughts, Chang Lei spoke up.
"The laws of the reverse world are far more powerful than you imagine, but since they are laws, we must strictly follow them."
"The inner world is desolate. I heard that it is full of deathly silence. Even the lake water is as black as ink, like a black hole that cannot reflect any light. So, without a medium, we naturally cannot go there."
"As for the surface world, it is a dead end. Most of the surface world is empty and there is no need to occupy it. So we usually come directly to the real world to choose our prey."
The latest novel is first published here!
"I see." Tang Zijun was now certain that she could say goodbye to her old life of being a salted fish.
I thought I could finally rest after eliminating the greedy ones in the Mirror Dimension, but now it seems that the 'wonder' of this world far exceeds my imagination.
However, thinking about this, the doubts that had been temporarily suppressed reappeared in Tang Zijun's mind.
"Since the Reverse World can establish connections with so many dimensions, why were those connections blocked when I was pulled into that dimension?"
"This question..." Chang Lei looked at Tang Zijun as she raised her glass. "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
Tang Zijun couldn't help but chuckle at this.
"So, it really is a world above the horizon."
"The Dream Stone is produced in only one place, which is the 'Dream World'. However, that place is too strange. Even in the history of the Greedy, it is a legendary place."
"Unlike other small worlds, the laws of the dream world are more distorted and more unstable. In fact, that world is not even complete, but is composed of individual dreams."
"Different dreams pile up and overlap, forming a vague and ethereal dimension above reality, as ever-changing and chaotic as a mirage."
After a pause, Chang Lei frowned deeply again, his eyes fixed on Tang Zijun with an uncertain expression.
"Wolf Rider, how did you manage to mess with those guys?"
