The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Chapter 240 Breaking the Shackles! Jiang Chuan Awakens Again!

The dragon's head emerged from the dark clouds.

It seemed that even the fierce wind could not shake the way its dragon whiskers swayed.

The dragon's body remained hidden in the thick black clouds, its vertical pupils emitting a chilling light that stood out starkly amidst the raging wind and rain.

Song Chen and the other two looked up at the enormous creature, their faces turning extremely grim.

Xia Xiangyang, the strongest of the three, exhaled heavily from his nostrils, his voice low yet penetrating the sound of the rain: "I didn't expect it to end here."

"I haven't been promoted to the top tier yet."

"Ultimately, why should the ranking be done by an institution? If it were the Ministry of War, I would have been a first-class soldier long ago."

Song Chen casually replied, "That's why we can't let the Ministry of War do it."

Xia Xiangyang was taken aback: "Then how can you guarantee that you're not biased towards Li Yu?"

“I know that you, Song Chen, have a good relationship with Li Yu.”

In such an emergency, they actually started chatting casually.

This clearly shows that even someone as strong as the three of them was extremely nervous at this moment.

Faced with life and death, one can be generous in the face of death. Yet, unease still lingers in one's heart.

Lu Bin then joined their rambling conversation, his voice hoarse as he said, "If we win this battle, you'll definitely be the next A-rank player."

"You can have my head."

"This is not just about suppressing a rebellion, but also about eliminating the culprit, and even adding the title of dragon slayer."

"This reputation is truly immense. Even Mr. Zhou hasn't received such honors. Your future is very promising."

Song Chen chuckled upon hearing this: "A promising future? I've said that quite a few times."

Xia Xiangyang glanced at Lu Bin, scoffed, and dismissed his words with disdain: "What if?"

"How can we win this battle?"

Lu Bin didn't respond. He looked up at the sky, staring directly at the dragon, somewhat puzzled: "Why isn't it coming down yet?"

Song Chen replied, "Perhaps they haven't found Jiang Chuan?"

As he spoke, the dragon moved.

The dragon head charged straight toward the three of them. Its speed was so fast that it was like a giant black pillar piercing through the sky. Its pressure descended from the sky, creating white sonic barriers that broke through the air. To the people watching from a distance, the scene was extremely spectacular. But to Song Chen and the other two who were right there, it was like a mountain crashing down on them!

Where is Jiangchuan located?!

That voice, carrying supreme majesty, boomed like thunder; the dragon was actually speaking human language! After a moment of astonishment, they realized it was perfectly normal, and the three of them had already made all the preparations for their impending death.

Lu Bin's body swelled up, and his appearance, resembling a hungry ghost from hell, with its blue face and fangs, was originally extremely terrifying, but under such a dragon body, he appeared so small.

All three were awakened beings of the physical body system, so there was no need for them to consider anything else when facing Ao Yin. At that moment, Xia Xiangyang leaped up without hesitation and threw a punch at the black dragon!
He leaped into the air, leaving a deep crack in the ground with a thunderous roar. His punch was unparalleled in its power. Even Dai Yuxi, who was also a second-class student, had not received such a full-force honor. Xia Xiangyang was now soaring into the sky, shattering the rain, and was about to collide head-on with the black dragon!

"Insects!!"

A majestic dragon's roar reverberated between heaven and earth.

Although Ao Yin was subdued by Liu Bowen, the strength of the humans in the human world now is far too inferior!
boom!
Xia Xiangyang's all-out punch was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of Heilong. Song Chen didn't even see whether it hit or not before he heard a heavy sound. Then Xia Xiangyang's body was thrown out and landed in the building, his fate unknown.

Song Chen's pupils trembled.

Although he already knew how terrifyingly strong the black dragon was, and even considered that he would be powerless to fight back, such an exaggerated difference in strength still filled Song Chen with a sense of pressure.

He gritted his teeth, wanting to make a move, but he didn't know how. Although he was a second-class A-level fighter and a Body System Awakener, the problem was that he relied on agility to win battles. He was proficient in countless martial arts, which was fine against people, but how was he supposed to face this enormous dragon body before him?

A sharp whistling sound came from beside him; Lu Bin had also rushed forward.

Song Chen understood that this was nothing more than an ant trying to shake a tree.

Even Lu Bin himself knew this; he even knew his own fate.

Feeling the immense, mountain-like pressure hurtling towards him... no miracle occurred. Like Xia Daoba, he was thrown back without any fancy moves.

From all directions, many third- and fourth-level mental power users exhausted their mental energy and unleashed their strongest attacks into the sky. These mental attacks were of various colors, colorful and dazzling, like fireworks flying backwards.

But that formidable spiritual power simply crumbled and dissipated on the pitch-black dragon scales...

It seems that even the slightest discomfort is impossible, let alone stopping it for a short time.

Song Chen no longer wanted to think about the consequences of the dragon's descent.

He simply stood there, looking up at the dragon rapidly approaching.

In his despair, a sentence suddenly popped into his mind.

"Is this... the sky falling down?"

……

The boundless sea of the spirit.

A spiritual tide is sweeping in.

Jiang Chuan was standing at the very core, carefully trying to grasp that mysterious and profound feeling.

After the Tang Tomb incident, Jiang Chuan and Li Yu discussed how to make use of the unparalleled power of the spiritual sea.

At the time, Li Yu said that these forces would gradually be unleashed as Jiang Chuan's personal strength increased.

Now... has my strength improved?

Perhaps... it has improved quite a bit.

But why today, why now? Why didn't I feel this loosening of the constraints when I was in the forest before?
But Jiang Chuan didn't have time to think about it.

Song Chen, Lu Bin, and the other two Class A Level 2 members clearly stated that the dragon's strength was even greater than that of Mr. Zhou, whom he had only met once. While the three of them were powerful, defeating the dragon was practically a pipe dream. In Jiang Chuan's mind, perhaps the only chance lay within his mysterious dream world's spiritual sea.

The loosening of the constraints he sensed became his only chance to turn the tide.

Perhaps I don't have to die, perhaps I can save everyone.

Although Jiang Chuan himself is the master in the spiritual sea world, it is still extremely difficult to find even the slightest looseness in this perfectly sealed world.

Jiang Chuan held his breath and focused intently, searching for every possible possibility with all his might.

He wanted to mobilize every inch of power in this spiritual sea world... to completely immerse his spirit in this vast ocean.

He frowned.

Even within the sea of consciousness, the frantic effort to control the mind caused waves of dizziness.

"Surely I can't possibly faint in the mental sea, can I?"

"But... what if I faint?"

"Vegetative state?"

As he diligently explored every possibility, a strange thought began to sprout in his mind: "It's okay to be in a vegetative state."

"Anyway, I'm going to die."

"Even if Elder Song and the others do their best, they probably still won't be able to stop that dragon."

Within this pitch-black world, wisps of light emanated from Jiang Chuan, spreading outwards across the darkness.

These swaying, ethereal wisps seemed to be Jiang Chuan communicating with the entire spiritual sea, or perhaps the spiritual sea itself was under Jiang Chuan's control. As they became denser and dispersed in all directions... Jiang Chuan, standing in this dark world, seemed to have become the sun in this dark world, illuminating this spiritual sea.

Jiang Chuan himself, however, was completely unaware of this.

Unbeknownst to them, the overwhelming wave of spiritual energy had stopped at some point.

"Where exactly is the loosening..."

Jiang Chuan was lost in thought, and without realizing it, he not only used his mental power... he even began to use his mysterious spatial abilities in this spiritual sea world.

If Li Yu had used dream-entry techniques to enter Jiang Chuan's spiritual sea, he would probably have been astonished by this scene.

This world is being layered, like a grating, and is distorting. Light refracts back and forth in the irregular space, making this spiritual sea world dreamlike and even somewhat ethereal.

At this moment, Jiang Chuan seemed to have truly discovered the loose spot.

This loosening exists within the spirit, and cannot be expressed in words.

But it's like a breach in a huge dam where a thin stream of water is flowing through it.

In this seemingly endless spiritual sea, on this massive "dam," Jiang Chuan found this barely perceptible opening.

This was like finding a needle in a haystack, something that should have been impossible... but Jiang Chuan did it.

"Using luck here... is not bad."

Although his mind was a bit foggy and all sorts of chaotic thoughts were surging through him, Jiang Chuan was genuinely excited when he discovered this "breakthrough".

"Next... is how to expand... how to expand this loosening."

After all, the mental sea is not a real dam, and this breach is not a real breach. If Jiang Chuan wants to continue to widen and loosen it, he needs to think of other ways.

But Jiang Chuan didn't know where this loosening came from, and he was once again caught in a dilemma.

He didn't open his eyes, but relied on his senses to perceive everything in this spiritual sea.

Jiang Chuan was unaware that he had already illuminated what was once a completely dark mental sea.

If Jiang Chuan were to actually open his eyes, he would be incredibly shocked and extremely curious.

This is clearly a spiritual sea world, but how can spatial abilities be applied to it?

However, Jiang Chuan's mind was currently in a dazed state, not even fully awake, more like the moment he had just woken up from a dream and couldn't distinguish between reality and dream. He didn't notice these abnormalities at all; the light emanating from his body and the spatial power he subconsciously used were basically just his subconscious driving him to continuously output power.

However, just as Jiang Chuan was pondering how to increase the loosening, the "break"... actually moved by itself by a third.

A surge of spiritual energy emerged from the loosened area and directly merged into Jiang Chuan's spiritual sea.

This sudden surge of spiritual energy cleared Jiang Chuan's mind considerably...

"This is……?"

Jiang Chuan was a little surprised.

He knew very well that this loosening could not disintegrate naturally.

Although I don't understand what prompted its creation, now that it has loosened and expanded somewhat, at least it has found its direction.

"What...did I just do?"

Jiang Chuan began searching for the feeling that would trigger the loosening of the shackles, trying to recreate what he had just done, while also carefully "observing" what kind of action would achieve the desired result. It was like trying to find a balance point by placing a pen between his fingertips when he was bored in class and not sleeping.

Try little by little, and gradually narrow down the scope.

Jiang Chuan was on edge, carefully adjusting the output of his mental and spatial powers...

I don’t know how long it has been...

The breach loosened slightly again!

"Yes!!"

……

Zhong Huahua was driving Jiang Chuan, aimlessly heading deeper into the tunnel.

She used her mental power to support Jiang Chuan, and a ball of mental energy condensed in front of them, illuminating the path through the tunnel. The two of them could practically move without their feet touching the ground, advancing at an extremely fast speed.

In terms of the ability to use mental power, Zhong Huahua is undoubtedly a genius, especially after she completely broke free from Princess Anle's control. In the past two months, her strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

She could even feel the immense pressure rapidly approaching from the sky.

But she had no idea where the tunnel led, or if it had an end... The dragon came too strangely and too suddenly, leaving no time to make any other preparations. All she could do was focus on moving forward, trying to escape as far away as possible.

"If only he were awake..."

"At least I can still say something."

"..."

"I don't know if I'll have another chance to say it in the future."

Zhong Huahua was lost in thought when she suddenly felt Jiang Chuan's body... move.

A few minutes ago, Zhong Huahua didn't know why Jiang Chuan had fainted, and now she didn't know why he had woken up, but in any case, it was something to be happy about. Just as she had just thought... "It would be good if he were awake."

"Are you awake, Jiang Chuan!?"

Jiang Chuan opened his eyes, his gaze showing some weariness.

He saw Zhong Huahua, his weariness mixed with a touch of surprise.

"you still……"

Jiang Chuan interrupted himself and said, "We'll talk about it later."

As he spoke, he broke free from Zhong Huahua's spiritual power and floated up.

Jiang Chuan clenched his fist tightly, a smile playing on his lips.

Zhong Huahua looked bewildered, not knowing what was going on, but vaguely felt that Jiang Chuan in front of her was somewhat unfamiliar.

"What else?"

What exactly do these two words mean?

What else...?
Zhong Huahua was completely bewildered.

But before she could speak, Jiang Chuan's figure had already disappeared from her sight.
