"arrive."

Ji Fuyou stopped in a relatively open woodland.

"Xiao You, is this the place you're looking for?"

"Did you see it?"

"Of course, your main task in the first few days was to help me adapt to the foggy environment, but in the last few days, it's clear that you've been searching for something."

Ji Qingqing said.

"Ah."

Ji Fuyou responded, "A monster."

He glanced at Ji Qingqing: "You'll be on night watch tonight."

Ji Qingqing was taken aback, then replied in a deep voice, "Okay!"

The two found a large tree with a dense canopy to take shelter under.

By trimming and laying down some branches and leaves, you can ensure that they don't fall off the tree.

After the rest stop was repaired, Ji Fuyou reminded him, "Wake me up immediately if there is any danger. Although the most terrifying creature in the Misty Forest is the Thousand-Year Tree Demon, there is a very small chance of encountering an Orc Warrior. These monsters are comparable to Master-level martial artists in terms of combat power."

"I understand, I won't force it."

Ji Qingqing said.

Ji Fuyou nodded.

Right now, I'm sitting against a tree branch, circulating the Great Dream Scripture, and constructing a dreamlike misty forest based on my on-site investigation.

Although the monster in the Misty Forest dream has fallen more than one version in strength, and its combat power is probably not even as good as the Fertile Guardian, this does not stop him from trying to eliminate the hidden danger in the dream.

What's more...

He had long wanted to practice the full-state of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique in his dreams, but he was always unable to construct a new dream after the dream in the Crimson Track Mine was broken. Now that the time was ripe, he naturally wouldn't miss it.

Compared to the past, Ji Fuyou regained consciousness from the dream faster than ever before.

Through the familiar yet unfamiliar feeling of his surroundings, he quickly discerned his situation.

"Dreams constructed by dream control techniques."

Ji Fuyou adapted to his surroundings while checking his equipment: "The Ghost Silkworm Inner Armor and the Limitless Sword are reflected here."

He then drew a longsword made of frost iron, but whose design had been significantly altered.

"This Frost Sword, which I only recently acquired, is no exception."

Cold Frost Sword was the name he gave to this sword.

I briefly commemorated the Cold Steel Sword, which has already been phased out.

After checking his equipment, he looked for the tree where he had "rested" before activating the Great Dream Scripture.

He quickly found the trees and began to verify his guesses.

"There are no traces of when we just built our rest stop with branches."

Theoretically, he set up his rest stop just a few days ago, so these traces shouldn't have been erased so quickly, but in the dream...

However, this rest stop does not exist.

“Things outside the dream, such as weapons, inner armor, and skills, can be reflected in the dream, but changes in the environment can never be reflected in it.”

He couldn't understand this situation.

Precognitive dreams.

Dreamland.

Real-world scenario.

The relationship between these three must exist, but he has never been able to truly understand it.

The only real world he could be certain of was the foundation of his existence.

Dreams, on the other hand, are completely illusory scenes.

Precognitive dreams are the key to blurring the lines between reality and dreams, and also the key to his ability to see through the present and the outside world.

Knowing something is one thing, but understanding the underlying principles is another.

Just as he couldn't understand why the power of the Fiery Lord had been transferred to him, and why he was able to use the power of this power to complete the void travel.

"Speaking of the authority to traverse the void..."

Ji Fuyou's heart stirred, and he quickly began to sense the power of his authority.

In just a moment, he was surprised to find that he could actually sense it.

"Can sense it!?"

He carefully checked...

can!
Really!

If it were truly perceptible...

What would happen if he used this teleportation authority to teleport directly to other areas?

Once the thought started, Ji Fuyou felt an irrepressible urge to act.

Fortunately, he understood that things should be prioritized based on their importance and urgency.

We'll try using the power of void teleportation later.

just now……

"Kill this orc first."

He turned around, his gaze already fixed on the enormous figure that had suddenly emerged from the mist.

"Orc Commander!"

This orc leader was nearly three meters tall and looked very similar to a human, but was much more robust and seemed to be filled with explosive power.

Moreover, compared to the simple clothing of other orcs, this orc was dressed in armor that was of exceptional quality for orc craftsmanship.

The material of this armor...

It looks a lot like the War God meteorite!

The orc leader, wielding a battle axe, roared and launched an attack the moment he appeared and locked onto Ji Fuyou.

But his attack was not a direct assault; instead, he threw a small throwing axe from his body.

The throwing axe was thrown at an extremely fast speed, catching Ji Fuyou completely off guard.

Fortunately, he possessed the Wuji Sword, and with the burst of his divine sense, the Wuji Sword intercepted the attack immediately.

"boom!"

In a flash, the throwing axe was knocked away by the Limitless Sword. "That was close!"

Ji Fuyou broke out in a cold sweat.

As his own strength increased time and again, he realized that the orc leader could no longer be considered powerful.

Perhaps slightly stronger than the Corpse King, but definitely not as powerful as the Fertile Guardian.

Not to mention someone comparable to the powerful Master Fertile.

As a result of this underestimation due to instinct, when the orc leader appeared, the throwing axe clearly gave him a fatal opening.

This quickly calmed him down.

Seeing that the orc leader had already reached him after throwing the flying axe, he immediately activated the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and Overlord True Body. His massive blood energy, mixed with an indestructible burst, made him seem like an arrow released from a bow, and he passed by the orc leader in an instant.

In the instant the two crossed paths, the frost iron sword in his hand had already torn through the orc leader's head with incredible lightness and agility, hitting him in an instant.

"wrong!"

The moment the arrow struck, Ji Fuyou sensed something was amiss.

It was blocked.

The orc leader actually managed to block the frost iron sword's cut with his armor, which appeared to be made from the meteorite iron of the God of War.

"boom!"

Sparks flew.

Ji Fuyou instantly twisted his body and retreated, dodging the axe blow that the orc leader was about to strike.

As he turned and flew away, a second throwing axe followed closely behind.

"call out!"

Under the control of the Sword Control Technique, the Wuji Sword shot out and knocked the flying axe away once again.

Ji Fuyou gradually regained his footing as he retreated, and he stared directly at the orc leader.

"Nearby, there's the War God's Meteorite Heavy Armor; far away, there are flying axes... This orc leader... his physique stat isn't strong, probably around 33 points, but his equipment is truly top-notch."

Ji Fuyou gave a heartfelt exclamation of praise.

but……

That's it.

Innate Armor-Piercing Sword Qi, specifically designed to break through heavy armor and protective force!
The next moment, Ji Fuyou, having regained his footing, launched a fierce attack.

Before the man arrived, the Wuji Sword arrived first, its sharp whistling force forcing the orc leader to retaliate with his axe.

In the instant he counterattacked, Ji Fuyou unleashed his "Overlord's Might" technique, his speed skyrocketing as he flew low through the air. Simultaneously, he channeled all the internal energy and sword intent he possessed into the Frost Iron Sword, transforming it into a high-frequency vibrating sword aura that pierced straight towards the orc leader's head.

"boom!"

The flying sparks scattered in all directions from where the Frost Iron Sword had struck.

The sword pierced directly through the orc leader's mask and through his skull, unsurprisingly delivering the fatal blow to the monster.

Aside from the initial danger, the difficulty of fighting this monster was not as great as that of the Corpse Demon King in the Red Track Mine.

Ultimately, his strength is significantly superior to that of the orc leader, and there is no possibility that he is invincible.

To dart or draw a sword.

The orc chieftain's massive body plummeted to the ground.

Ji Fuyou quickly inspected the spoils of war on the orc leader.

Source Crystal...

"Red Physique Source Crystal".

Ji Fuyou was slightly disappointed.

It is not a spiritual source crystal.

It is not a heirloom crystal.

Instead, it was the red physique source crystal that no longer had much effect on him.

But then he shook his head.

Obtaining a red physique source crystal is an exciting and joyful thing for teams composed of master-level martial artists.

He, on the other hand, actually looked down on it.

“I can’t use it, but Ji Qingqing can… However, her current physique is not yet above 22 points. We should prepare 5 more blue physique source crystals to increase her physique value until each source crystal only increases physique by 0.1, and then it’s not too late to switch to red source crystals.”

To gather enough resources to exchange for a blue physique source crystal...

It's not that difficult.

Ji Fuyou's gaze fell on the armor worn by the orc leader.

He examined it carefully...

It was confirmed very quickly.

"It really is War God meteorite iron, but the purity isn't very high."

However, after glancing at the massive size of the orc leader, he figured that with some refinement, he could probably extract a fair amount of War God Meteorite Iron.

"A set of heavy armor made from War God Meteorite costs between 200 million and 300 million contribution points... It is still questionable whether enough War God Meteorite can be extracted from the armor on the orc leader's body, but it is more than enough to exchange for blue physique source crystals."

Ji Fuyou pondered for a moment, then began to examine the orc leader's battle axe again.

The battle axe in his hand was unremarkable.

It doesn't even have a material like Asura Stone.

But Ji Fuyou noticed something unusual about one of the flying axes.

"Good ice!"

Unlike the other throwing axes, this one was extremely cold.

Ji Fuyou held it in his hand as if he were holding ice, not metal.

He couldn't identify the specific material, but materials with mystical properties are never of low value.

"The harvest is not bad. Putting aside the Body Source Crystal, the value of the War God Meteorite should be no less than a red Spirit Source Crystal, and there is also that flying axe of unknown material... The three of them combined do not reach the level of the Corpse Demon King or the Blood Skull, but they surpass any of the commander-level monsters I have killed before."

Ji Fuyou put down the flying axe.

It was just a dream after all, allowing him to experience the joy of the harvest in advance. He would have to wait a while to actually acquire the armor and throwing axe.

With the orc leader dead, what will happen next...?

Sensing the authority of void teleportation, I used its power to walk out of the Misty Forest!
