Seizing Dreams [B1]

Ch 56.2 - Hidden Sun

Iron-clad General resisted the serpent demon's assault of scorching flames. Yu Hao rushed towards the curtain of water and grabbed Chen Yekai's hand before launching him into the air.

The serpent demon roared angrily; it was being overpowered by Zhou Sheng's huge dragon, and after its head was directly struck by the jingubang, it collapsed to the ground.

The immense dragon flapped its wings and retreated; General leapt into the air and grabbed Chen Yekai who had flown over. Chen Yekai reached out with his left hand - the scalpel rapidly spun between his five slender fingers. General swept his jingubang out and used it as a mid air relay. Chen Yekai stepped onto the jingubang, leaped up, and flew towards the serpent demon!

The serpent demon raised its head and roared. Chen Yekai quickly switched the scalpel to his right hand and shot over like a meteor; he flit past Lin Xun's neck, the scalpel flying out of his hands with a whoosh and a stream of golden light!

A mad cry shook the entire dream world. A fiery blaze erupted from the mouth of the snake serpent before it abruptly disintegrated into ashes and exploded within a violent gale.

With a loud crash, the water curtain collapsed entirely. Yu Hao was thoroughly drenched, and his wings became so heavy that he began to plummet. The huge dragon passed through the current and caught him.

"Is it dead?"

"It's dead ba." Zhou Sheng raised his helmet to watch this final scene clearly before adding, "It's dead, right?"

Yu Hao looked up at the sky, but it seemed almost unchanged. The earth was still submerged in a sea of fire, and the army under his command was still nervously guarding the front of the waterfall; all of them had their arrows nocked and bowstrings pulled back as they vigilantly kept watch for enemies that could appear at any time.

"What about him?" Yu Hao asked.

Zhou Sheng motioned for Yu Hao to look. All he could see was that the asphalt monsters had all disappeared, Chen Yekai's clothes had all been burnt into rags as he stood in front of the sea of fire.

Zhou Sheng stretched his left hand out, and with his iron-clad hand, he flicked his thumb; it made a clear and melodious sound, as if he had snapped his fingers. His dragon mount slowly ascended and brought the two of them into the sky; they had an aerial view of this burning hell.

"Let's go up to the clouds to take a look?" Yu Hao asked.

"Shh." Zhou Sheng answered, "Look."

Chen Yekai seemed to have undergone a peculiar change. His body was radiating light and he stepped out into the burning world, yet he remained undaunted by the raging fire in his heart.

The sound of running water was unceasing. Yu Hao looked into the distance, and could see the current of the Iguazu Falls rise again. But this time, it gently turned into water droplets that floated before ascending into the sky.

The black dragon mount uttered a cry. Zhou Sheng then steered it to fly to another solitary peak. This was the highest place in the dreamscape, and coincidentally, it could overlook the entire world as well as the Chichén Itzá in the distance.

Yu Hao looked around him and discovered that this was actually the solitary peak of Mt. Tianqing that connected to the suspension bridge - the place he found himself at the first time he entered this dreamscape!

The moment Chen Yekai disappeared into the sea of fire, the entire dreamscape began to change. A breeze whispered past; it was a gentle wind that brought with it a breath of vitality.

Zhou Sheng's armor disappeared. He placed one arm around Yu Hao's shoulder, and the two of them leaned against the the black dragon's side as they gazed into the distance.
