Chapter 156: Dreamy Transformation Plan

Chapter 156: Dreamy Transformation Plan

Hua Mi felt like a mere exertion of her mental strength could crush the fuzzball right before her eyes. This was the most palpable, raw mental pressure, a force that could only fully manifest in the dream world when facing spiritual entities.

Here, mental prowess was the truth. So, whatever this fuzzball asked or said, it couldn't dare to lie.

Through it, Hua Mi gleaned some information about the Nightmare:

The Nightmare was a rather peculiar monster, capable of autonomously separating its spiritual and physical forms, wandering the dream world as a spiritual entity.

They relied on consuming emotional energy from the dreams of living beings to survive. Most of the time, they didn't cause significant harm to dreamers, at most disrupting their sleep or causing mental haziness.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

However, at times, they'd drag the target's spirit into dreamscapes created by the Nightmare themselves a racial talent they possessed thus ensuring a better and sustainable feeding experience. It was akin to confinement. Some powerful Nightmares often did this to have a consistent supply.

Some even "confined" not just one but possibly dozens or even hundreds, becoming the "big farmers" of Nightmares.

Unfortunately, this little guy in front of Hua Mi had lousy luck; its first choice for confinement ended up being the wrong person.

Hua Mi's mental power in this realm far exceeded that of an ordinary person; his spirit here was akin to a monstrous existence.

So, he took charge.

Talking about it, this was indeed a strange space. Hua Mi glanced around; there were amorphous "mists" everywhere.

The fuzzball explained these were shadow mists, the necessary conditions for cultivating Rainbow Glass Flowers in reality, as mentioned before.

These mists were incredibly sensitive to the mental strength of living beings. Normally, when a living being dreamt, it was their mental power projected into the dream world, manifesting as images in the shadow mists.

"It's time to go," Hua Mi said.

Returning from the Nightmare space, Hua Mi could actually wake up on his own now. However, to materialize the Rainbow Glass Flower into reality, he still relied on the fuzzball.

Under his coercion, the fuzzball didn't dare to act arbitrarily, only obeying his commands.

The fuzzball suddenly elongated, then its upper and lower parts bent backward simultaneously, splitting open in the middle, gulping down the Rainbow Glass Flower.

Simple and unadorned.

Then, Hua Mi enveloped himself and the fuzzball in his mental power.

A sensation of falling.

Lasted for about two to three seconds.

Hua Mi opened his eyes, finding it already bright outside.

He glanced down, confirming he was wearing the Robe of Tranquility. Still a comfy robe.

A fuzzball was lying on the table in front of him.

Following that, Hua Mi stood up with a swift motion.

Its appearance was almost identical to the spiritual entities in the dream world, just slightly lighter in color.

"Gulu" It spat out a colorful flower. The Rainbow Glass Flower.

It had materialized into reality just like that.

Honestly, its color reminded Hua Mi of the measurement bee he'd obtained earlier. In terms of appearance, both had an artistic quality; without touching, they didn't seem biological at all.

Perhaps subconsciously, there was an influence from the measurement bee when he participated in creating it.

"Look, I plan to plant Rainbow Glass Flowers all over this land. So, I need you to convert all this soil into Dream Soil and fill it with shadow mist."

Pausing here, Hua Mi grinned, "That's simple for you, right?"

"This... this area is just too massive."

"So, we'd better start quickly."

At this moment, the fuzzball looked like a wilted eggplant, its fur drooping, the whole ball in dismay.

Suddenly, it bounced in place, legs pushing off forcefully, heading for the exit.

Its wings flapped hard, but it was too heavy to fly, so it could only jump forward with a "duang-duang" sound.

It plunged into the misty area separating the field.

Then, within seconds, it jumped back from another direction.

"Gujigi?"

Seeing the familiar scene, the fuzzball paused for a moment, then immediately turned and dove in again.

But a few seconds later, it returned from another side.

"Gujigi!"

The fuzzball was horrified.

Trying to escape time and again but always bouncing back, unable to run away.

After watching the one-act play for a while, Hua Mi signaled to Xiao Bai.

She flew over, instantly in front of the fuzzball, and, expanding, gave it a hefty kick.

"Gujigi"

The kick was enchanted with flames.

The area around where the fuzzball was kicked turned black instantly.

Hua Mi caught the "pass" steadily, pressing its sides firmly and said solemnly, "You must understand, this isn't a task for you; it's a redemption."

"If my mental strength wasn't high enough, you'd have trapped me

in a dream.

"But I'll give you a chance to make amends; as soon as you create a suitable environment for Rainbow Glass Flowers to grow, you can regain your freedom. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can leave."

"Understood?"

"Guj... gujigi."

"So, let's get to work now."

Hua Mi wasn't worried it'd starve.

Nightmares could transport their spirits into dream worlds at any time and feed on the emotional energy of dreamers' dreams.

If it got hungry, it'd find something to eat on its own.
