Wan Hongzhuang

Chapter 256 A Fool's Dream

After finishing its words, the little yellow dog zipped into Wan Lei’s storage bag and reappeared holding a pill.

Master Xuan Dan had given him the Sky Profound Revival Pill for use in the Ten Thousand Talents Ranking, but he hadn't used it.

"Will the Sky Profound Revival Pill be effective? I have plenty."

Fang Xiaoyu quickly produced a large handful of pills.

"For this kind of injury, pills won't restore much. Only the legendary Sky Dao Myriad Life Pill from your Thunder Wind Realm, or pills refined by Immortal Realm Earth-grade alchemists, will be effective.

I'm talking about Immortal Realm Earth-grade alchemists, not the Heaven, Earth, and Human classifications of the Thunder Wind Realm. In the Immortal Realm, a Heaven-grade alchemist from the Thunder Wind Realm wouldn't even be considered Earth-grade; at best, they'd be a Profound-grade alchemist."

At this moment, Fang Xiaoyu had no interest in listening to it boast about how powerful the Immortal Realm was. She only cared if Wan Lei could survive.

"Did the immortals leave any pills behind when they left treasures in the Star Sea of Thunder?"

"Pills are usually found in secret realms. The Star Sea of Thunder is primarily for magical treasures, but there might be pills as well.

That gold-attribute immortal was one of the top Heaven-grade alchemists in the Immortal Realm. His pills, although they have significant side effects, often work miracles."

"I'll go look."

Fang Xiaoyu immediately stood up.

"If you leave now, Wan Lei will surely die.

He is too fragile at the moment to take any random pills. He can only rely on the Revival Pill to restore some of his vitality.

He has no energy within him and needs energy to slowly repair himself. Use your energy ring to absorb thunder power, supply some to Wan Lei, and keep some for yourself.

Remember, when supplying thunder power, be gentle and slow. He cannot withstand any forceful energy right now; even a slight misstep could worsen his injuries."

"Okay."

Fang Xiaoyu nodded, picked up Wan Lei, used the energy ring on her back to absorb energy, and then carefully transferred it to Wan Lei.

"Alright, you do that. I'm going to build a house. Living out in the open isn't conducive to recovery."

The island was gone, leaving only this basin within the grand formation. If it wanted to build a house, it had to do so within the formation. Fortunately, there was still earth.

"No need for so much trouble."

Fang Xiaoyu tapped her storage bag and produced a delicate, palm-sized house. She threw it forward, and a house appeared in the northwest corner of the formation.

It had three rooms and a small courtyard, not extravagant but very exquisite.

"You have a mobile dwelling?"

"A little trinket. It can't compare to those advanced dwellings that integrate defense, attack, and mobility."

Fang Xiaoyu said casually, then picked up Wan Lei and flew quickly into the house, placing him on the bed.

"When Wan Lei wakes up, ask him to enchant this dwelling with some formations, and then it will have more functions."

"Let's wait for him to wake up first. He still has a chance to recover, it just needs time."

Fang Xiaoyu sat cross-legged beside Wan Lei, absorbing energy while carefully transmitting it to him.

This process was very slow. It was unclear how long it would take for Wan Lei to wake up and absorb energy on his own.

Furthermore, it required complete focus and constant, careful manipulation of energy, something that not just anyone could do.

Fang Xiaoyu silently stayed by Wan Lei's side, healing him.

Perhaps finding the cross-legged position uncomfortable, Fang Xiaoyu lay down beside Wan Lei and gently embraced him.

Her hand rested on Wan Lei’s dan tian, and a trickle of thunder power entered his cracked dan tian.

Seeing this, the little yellow dog, acting with great understanding, covered them with a quilt.

Well, it was afraid they would be cold, after all, Wan Lei was the patient.

"I love you..."

Fang Xiaoyu closed her eyes, as if murmuring, as if in a dream...

Wan Lei's injuries this time were far more severe than when he had emerged from the spatial turbulence. In fact, in all his previous injuries, even when his cultivation was completely depleted and he was covered in wounds, leading to unconsciousness, he would recover in at most two days.

But this time, his dan tian was cracked, his thunder body was also cracked, his origin and foundation had been injured.

And the injuries were very deep.

Fang Xiaoyu’s hand remained on Wan Lei’s dan tian, continuously inputting thunder power for him day after day.

A wife staying by her husband's side, paralyzed in bed, unwavering.

This deeply touching scene played out every day.

As days passed, Wan Lei's flesh and skin gradually became fuller, and the cracks on his body also began to shrink. However, the cracks within his dan tian showed no improvement, and he could only store a limited amount of thunder power.

Fang Xiaoyu's mood gradually brightened; Wan Lei's recovery was proceeding relatively smoothly.

Wan Lei had a dream, a long dream.

In his dream, he was in a place whose location he did not know, only seeing that it was a boundless ocean.

The ocean was yellowish-brown.

There was not a trace of spiritual energy, thunder power, or any energy that could be absorbed. In this place, Wan Lei always felt a suffocating sensation.

It was very uncomfortable.

But fortunately, he was not alone; there were many, many people.

The vast majority of these people had two horns on their heads and were thirty feet tall...

They were demons.

Wan Lei held a strange hammer in his hand, which looked different from his Hammer of the Thunder God.

He swung the hammer from time to time, frantically killing those demons, and at other times summoned lightning for indiscriminate area attacks.

Beside him were comrades, but their numbers were very small.

These comrades included humans, strangely shaped demonic beasts, and giants a hundred feet tall, with star-like markings on their foreheads.

They were at a disadvantage; there were too many demons around, and they could never be killed off.

"Captain, please request reinforcements."

"Captain, let's retreat."

"Captain, you all go. You and sister-in-law have divine abilities; the demons' spatial blockade can't trap you!"

Wan Lei looked around; his comrades were all looking at him expectantly.

They... were calling me?

I'm the captain?

Who is sister-in-law?

At this moment, a soft, boneless hand rested on his shoulder. He turned his head to look.

It was Fang Xiaoyu.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoyu's face was smeared with blood and looked very disheveled, but her eyes were still bright.

She held his hand, standing resolutely by his side.

"Captain, the demons deliberately lured us to this place to annihilate you completely. Hurry and leave."

"We die, we die. But you cannot die!"

"This time, the Thunder Saint is entangled by the Respectful Virtuous Demon Emperor and cannot break free. No one will come to save us, and we can't even transmit any intelligence!"

Wan Lei became even more confused. He didn't know who these people were, their names, or who the Thunder Saint was. However, one name sounded familiar.

Respectful Virtuous Demon Emperor.

The demons who had invaded the Thunder Wind Realm before had called themselves the army under the Respectful Virtuous Demon Emperor.

Could it be that the war between the positive and negative planes had escalated to such a fierce degree?

"We will not flee."

Fang Xiaoyu said coldly,

"The warriors of the positive plane never admit defeat and never flee.

You, follow the two of us, and charge out together. If we die, so be it!"

"Our resolve is to break through!"

"We fight to the death!"

Just as they were about to charge, a spatial portal opened, and countless strangely shaped warships appeared, attacking the demons.

Wan Lei vaguely saw a woman within the warships whose figure was very familiar...
