Chapter 2107 - 10: Dual Cultivation in the Dream of Desire, Rebirth of Flesh and Blood (Part 2)

Chapter 2107: Chapter 10: Dual Cultivation in the Dream of Desire, Rebirth of Flesh and Blood (Part 2)

This represents how the Daoist couple hardly hesitated, determined to seek revenge and restart their cultivation almost immediately after being knocked down, stepping back onto the ’right path of cultivation’ within the Desire Dream Realm.

"Your Majesty, your cultivation speed is impressive." Fu Mengzhen eyes were dreamy, gazing intently at the white bones within the flames.

Seeing her lover with energy to spare, she struck while the iron was hot and immediately let Zhao Xing go through the second round of the Illusion Realm.

In the second round of the Desire Dream Realm, Zhao Xing descended into a cultivation dynasty as a forlorn star of misfortune. Losing both parents in childhood, he grew up eating meals provided by a hundred different families. Struggling through to adulthood, he followed his cousin from the same village to do business. But then encountered a great storm on the sea, where everyone else was unharmed, but he fell into the water, catching a cold, leaving him half a life. Even after healing, his legs remained disabled.

In order to heal his injury and make a living, he had no choice but to join a martial arts school as a servant. However, even for ordinary Gathering Essence, he had to exert ten times more effort than others, often suffering from the formal apprentices’ beckoning, oppressive insults.

Enduring humiliation and burdens within the martial arts school, he finally succeeded at Gathering Essence and seized the opportunity to join the army. Yet, as soon as he arrived in the military, he encountered an enemy surprise attack and became a captive of the Alien Race.

Sent to dig mines in the Alien Race’s territory, those dark, sunless years stretched to thirty long years.

Zhao Xing silently gathered essence while patiently waiting for an opportunity until that awaited day came when the Human Clan’s army liberated the mines.

However, just as hope was gained, it slipped away again. Everyone else received proper arrangements, yet one careless officer forgot him, leaving him in the unfamiliar land of the Alien Race...

Every time an opportunity was gained, it continuously slipped away.

In the end, no matter how hard Zhao Xing tried in that life, he only reached the second realm of cultivation by the time he died in a foreign country,

"Is this fate or destiny?" Zhao Xing sighed, unwilling as he passed away.

...

"Did the second life pass so quickly?" Fu Mengzhen was slightly surprised, having witnessed the entirety of the second life with her own eyes.

To draw strength from the second life’s illusion, the key wasn’t how high the cultivation achievements were, but rather, quickly rallying after gaining and losing hope without being swayed by negative emotions.

If the Desire Dream Technique is dominated by emotions and one sinks into it, then this cultivation would be meaningless. The longer the delay, the more unfavorable it becomes.

However, Zhao Xing always chose correctly in line with the cultivation of the Desire Dream Technique, greatly surprising Fu Mengzhen.

...

Time fled by, and in the blink of an eye, Zhao Xing and Fu Mengzhen had been dual cultivating in the Eighteen Locust and Willow Courtyard for seven years.

With the support of the Enlightenment Golden Ring, Zhao Xing maximized his cultivation efficiency each time.

Being something of a workaholic, Zhao Xing nearly didn’t rest at all. When he couldn’t endure it anymore, he rummaged through Wei Tianchen’s storeroom for drugs to counteract fatigue.

At the end of the seventh year, his right foot began regenerating some flesh and blood.

Even Fu Mengzhen marveled, calling Zhao Xing a genius.

By the start of the ninth year, Fu Mengzhen was no longer merely a contributor; she could also draw strength from the Desire Dream Realm.

Their progress aligned, experiencing the Desire Dream Realm together.

One person’s difficulty seemed greater than two people’s.

Because each person’s True Spirit Fire and spiritual power are different, with endless variations.

For instance, in one life, Zhao Xing encountered a meaningless ’cultivation.’

Neither wealthy nor impoverished from the start, living in a small town with a moderate family background. Loving family, harmonious marriage, entirely disconnected from so-called cultivation in their environment.

Until the Desire Dream Realm ended, Zhao Xing and Fu Mengzhen spent their entire lives in that small town.

"Your Majesty, it was all my fault..." Fu Mengzhen blamed herself immediately upon awakening.

Because once they broke free, they realized the illusion’s only escape point was during a ’hearsay’ about a cultivation method in a local teahouse.

Zhao Xing had the urge to pursue cultivation, but Fu Mengzhen, captivated by her role as a wife, stopped him.

"You can’t be blamed." Zhao Xing shook his head, "Some people never dare to leave their hometowns, and the occasional audacious thoughts are worn out by trivial daily concerns."

"A life idly passes amidst hometown sentiments."

The most mundane of the Desire Dream Realms became the hardest to breakthrough in cultivation.

Because experiences of failure don’t bring knowledge; entering again with a ’normal person’s’ mindset and wisdom can’t match those of the Demigod Level or Emperor Level.

"The Dual Cultivation Technique will take a pause." Zhao Xing pondered as he left Fu Mengzhen’s cave dwelling.

Watching Zhao Xing’s departing figure, Fu Mengzhen was lost in thought.

Now, aside from her head still showing exposed bones, the rest of her body had regenerated, flesh full and skin glistening like a baby’s, progress unimaginable before.

Zhao Xing’s progress was similar to Fu Mengzhen’s.

His flesh had also regrown, and most importantly, his Dantian Qi Sea reappeared. ℯ

"This means I can quickly reclaim Extreme Land and simultaneously open the Inner World!"

Returning to his cave dwelling, Zhao Xing threw out the Eight-direction Divine Mirror, followed by the Green Water Golden God Gourd, activating the barrier.

He didn’t rush to open the Inner World but patiently spent another six years restoring the Extreme Land and resealing the Heavenly Time Technique.
