Chapter 554: Dream and Reality

Chapter 554 Dream and Reality

Chu Xun believed that the so-called cultivation was just a figment of his imagination following his four failures.

There were no immortals or devils in the world.

In the following days, Chu Xun accepted the reality gradually.

He was just a poor examinee, just like the other examinees in the world.

They had only one purpose, to become the Number One Scholar in the exam, make a name for themselves, and bring glory to their ancestors.

The whole village was supportive of Chu Xun’s preparation for the exam.

With a thick pile of books, Chu Xun focused on learning.

In addition, he also enjoyed living with his two wives.

Every night, Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu accompanied him to sleep.

Chu Xun was so happy that he couldn’t think of anything else.

What were the immortal and the devil? He had completely forgotten about them.

He envied the life of a couple but not a lonely and immortal life.

He wouldn’t exchange such a leisurely and beautiful day for the life of an immortal.

In the blink of an eye, it was July 7th, the time to go to the capital for the exam.

The villagers began to donate the money for his traveling expenses.

Fire Spinels?

Looking at the little red things, Chu Xun was stunned.

It seemed that poverty was also part of the source of his imagination.

In his dream, he saw mountains of Fire Spinels.

It seemed that he was very short of money in real life.

The Fire Spinel was now the only currency on earth.

Although living in poverty, all the villagers helped him scrape together enough money for the travel expenses.

After saying his farewells, Chu Xun embarked on the travel with the expectations of all the people.

Chu Xun saw the boundary marker of the Qianlong Village at the threshold of the village.

He took out the writing brush and soaked it with his spit. Then he wrote quickly as following: Full of talent and knowledge, if I contest for the Number One Scholar, I will be successful and return with glory, nobility and wealth.

He threw away the brush and swaggered off.

After walking around all the way, he finally arrived at the capital city.

The next day, the students began their exams.

Chu Xun raised his head high and stared at the gilded characters: Longxia Collegium.

Chu Xun had a strange look in his eyes. They seemed to be written by him, but then he thought it was impossible.

He shook his head and stepped into the famous collegium.

There was a crowd of people in front of the bulletin board.

Chu Xun squeezed forward and saw a royal announcement posted on it.

The crown prince would supervise the exam.

These words made Chu Xun’s pupils shrink slightly.

Hua Qingwu told him that the crown prince was about to ascend the throne.

“Wasn’t the new emperor Long Ao?” Chu Xun looked a little terrible.

He covered his chest with his hand. “Why is there a rage surging in my heart?”

The exam began.

Thousands of students sat in an orderly manner.

Chu Xun got his writing brush, inkstone, and ink stick ready.

At the time, the crown prince came in person.

Chu Xun stared at the familiar face and held his breath.

“Excuse me, have the crown prince ever supervised the examination before?” Chu Xun asked. The student sitting next to him shook his head slightly.

Since he had never supervised the examination, it meant that he had never met the crown prince.

“Why did he appear in my dream?” Chu Xun scratched his head.

However, the rage in his heart kept gushing out.

Chu Xun was scared. “What happened?”

Could it be that the dream realm was affecting him? Subconsciously, he began to write at high speed.

“Emperor Ao and the common people have betrayed me. I’ll kill them all!” The words appeared on the paper.

Chu Xun’s breath became disordered, and his eyes began to turn red.

Long Ao felt something in his heart and looked at Chu Xun. With a trace of doubt in his eyes, he walked towards Chu Xun.

He looked at Chu Xun quietly with exploration in his eyes, and he saw several big words in front of Chu Xun.

“How dare you call the emperor’s name directly? Capture him!”

Some soldiers rushed over and caught Chu Xun.

“Kill!” Chu Xun raised his head and roared angrily.

Long Ao looked at Chu Xun with his eyes shining. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Perhaps this person has been demonized. Lock him up in the Buddha Hall to be purified by the Buddha’s voice,” Long Ao said.

Chu Xun was locked up in a large Buddha Hall.

The 8-fathom-tall golden Buddha sat cross-legged on the ground, with a Buddhist signet in his hand. His face was peaceful, and there was a faint sound coming from him.

Unexpectedly, not only was Chu Xun unconscious, but his eyes became even more scarlet and devilish.

It was as if he had a blood feud with the Buddha.

“Shut up! Shut up!” Chu Xun roared angrily and jumped onto the stone platform. With fierce strength, Chu Xun pushed the Buddha statue down.

“Boom!” The ground trembled. The Buddha statue crumbled into several pieces.

The Buddha statue was not made of pure gold but was gilded.

Looking at the crumbled Buddha statue, Chu Xun raised his head and laughed wildly, feeling indescribably happy in his heart.

Crack!

Long Ao opened the door of the Buddha Hall and came in.”Chu Xun, do you still not want to wake up?”

Chu Xun was slightly stunned and looked at Long Ao in confusion.

“What do you mean?”

“Chu Xun, all lives in the world die because of you. Are you still not going to wake up?” Long Ao said in pain.

“What are you talking about?”

Chu Xun rushed over and wanted to grab Long Ao’s collar, but he went straight through him.

He suddenly turned around and saw Long Ao standing there, perfectly fine.

“You...” Chu Xun opened his mouth but did not know what to say.

Long Ao chuckled, “Chu Xun, the Elder Ancestor is dead. The world is destroyed. You should wake up.”

Then Long Ao disappeared into light spots all over the sky.

“Don’t leave. Speak ahead. What do you mean?” Chu Xun rushed over in a panic, trying to catch those light spots, but it was in vain.

He opened the door and rushed out. He suddenly stood still.

There were no pavilions or thousands of examinees in front of him. There was nothing but ruins.

With the earth riddled with holes, the sweltering lava flew everywhere.

Chu Xun was shocked to find that he suddenly possessed unparalleled power. He could destroy the world with a raise of his hand.

If he remembered correctly, it was the power of the Immortal Emperor in his dreams.

Chu Xun shot up into the sky and looked around. It was a scene of devastation. The magma burst out of the ground. Demonic beasts were rampant and vicious birds were flying in the sky.

“Chu Xun, save me,” a faint voice sounded from over a thousand miles away.

Chu Xun’s expression changed drastically. It was Jing Hong’s voice. He could travel a thousand miles with each step he took.

“No!” Chu Xun roared.

He witnessed the moment helplessly. Jing Hong was devoured by a huge demonic beast.

Hiss!

Chu Xun raised his hand and tore the beast in half.

Jing Hong fell out of the beast. Chu Xun raised his hand to catch her.

“It’s all right now,” Chu Xun comforted her.

“Wake up, Chu Xun,” Jing Hong stared at Chu Xun mournfully. Then she turned into light spots and disappeared like Long Ao.

Chu Xun panicked and didn’t know what to do. He wanted to lock up those light spots but failed.

“Ah!”

He had never felt so frustrated before. He raised his hand and smashed all the mountains within 50 kilometers into powder.

“Honey, save me.”

Chu Xun was stunned. Hearing the voice, he stepped forward. It was Hua Qingwu’s voice.

“How dare you!”

Chu Xun roared angrily. He saw a Subterranean Devil Warrior waving his demonized scythe and piercing Hua Qingwu’s heart.

Hua Qingwu reached out her hand to him, and her tears streaked across her cheeks. Her eyes were full of reluctance.

“Honey, wake up,” after that, her arm slowly fell.

“Fiend Supremacy.”

The Subterranean Devil Warrior knelt.

“I’m not your Fiend Supremacy.”

Chu Xun roared and reached out to crush him into powder.

Hua Qingwu also turned into light spots and disappeared.

At this moment, a figure flew over the sky. It was Mo Yan.

“Fiend Supremacy, there is only the Gujiang City left on earth. We will destroy it in one day.”

“Mo Yan, when did I become your Fiend Supremacy?”

Mo Yan looked at Chu Xun strangely and said, “Fiend Supremacy, you helped us come out and led us to fight. Once we destroy Gujiang City, the whole earth will be ours.”

“It’s me? I did all of this?” Chu Xun’s heart was trembling. He was afraid and thrilled.

“Yes,” Mo Yan said.

“No, it’s not true!” Chu Xun suddenly roared.

Boom!

Mo Yan was torn into pieces by the boundless foul aura.

“Gujiang City.”

Chu Xun took a step forward and arrived in Gujiang City.

The Subterranean Devil Army was slaughtering civilians. The whole city was in chaos, blood flowing like a river.

“Stop! All of you, stop!” Chu Xun roared wildly.

However, the Subterranean Devil Army did not seem to hear him. They were still waving their weapons.

Chu Xun was furious. His foul aura surged around him and enveloped the entire Gujiang City. Boom! Tens of thousands of the Subterranean Devil Warriors disappeared.

However, the entire city still turned into a dead city.

“Little Xun, save me,” Liu Ran’s voice suddenly came from thousands of miles away.

“Help me, sir.”

“Mansion Lord, save us!”

“Save us, Chu the Devil!”

Chu Tianhe, his wife, Chen Hanlong, Yan Wushuang... Cries for help came from all directions.

Chu Xun roared angrily. He separated out two doppelgangers, but there was not enough time for them to save the people.

“I’m sorry... I can’t save all of you...” Chu Xun howled in pain.

“Little Xun, wake up.”

“Wake up, Sir.”

“Wake up, Chu the Devil!”

The voices of his relatives kept ringing in his ears.

Chu Xun held his head with both hands and howled in pain.

The world was in ruins.

“I didn’t do it, I didn’t...”

Chu Xun fell from the sky and curled up in the corner. He trembled all over and cried bitterly.

“You’re lying. I didn’t do it.”

Chu Xun raised his head and roared, and his eyes seemed about to pop out.

At the same time, the wind rose and the clouds began to gather. The ruins in front of him turned into dust and dissipated.

Days and nights came up and went down. The ruins disappeared, replaced by a blue sky and white clouds, lush ancient trees, and a warm breeze.

Chu Xun was stunned. He looked down and found that he was no longer wearing coarse linen clothes but his original black brocade clothes.

He was not an Immortal Emperor. He was only at the Initial Nascent Soul Stage.

He turned around and saw Yue Jingchou, Gao Mohan, and Ge Zhan sleeping not far away.

Chu Xun stood up and had a splitting headache. It took a long time for him to recover from it.

He looked around and got stunned. It was an unfamiliar place, but he still recognized it.

Here was the Suspended Mountain.

“Was everything unreal? Did I dream?”

It was so funny that he pinched himself to prove if it was a dream.

However, he was still not sure.

“Am I dreaming or in reality?

“Did I get trapped in a dream before and couldn’t get out?”

“Jingchou...” Chu Xun walked over and shook Yue Jingchou, but he looked unconscious and didn’t wake up.

He tried to awaken Gao Mohan and Ge Zhan, but neither of them could wake up.

“You wake up,” said an elderly voice behind Chu Xun.

Chu Xun turned around and saw a middle-aged man in black looking at him with a smile.

He looked handsome and dressed in black, holding a jade gourd in his hand. He seemed cynical and free.

Chu Xun could see that the jade gourd was an extremely powerful Sacred Relic.

“Who are you?” Chu Xun asked.

The middle-aged man raised his head and drank a mouthful of alcohol. There was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Chu Xun’s expression was strange. “Does he have to think about his name?”

“I have too many names, but I still want to be called Lao Hei. I’ve heard it for thousands of years, and I get used to it.”

“Lao Hei?” The corners of Chu Xun’s mouth twitched.

He saw that the person’s cultivation was very high. “He is full of ridiculous strength, but his name is a little disgraceful.”

Lao Hei seemed to know what Chu Xun was thinking. He smiled and said, “Young man, there are always things that people can’t let go of it. It can be a person, something, or a name.”

Chu Xun nodded in agreement. Some things were indeed unforgettable, such as one character or one sentence.
