This was because although Dreamland had the ability of a black iron grade equipment, he didn't have the least bit of combat ability. In other words, he didn't have the ability to fight; even if he met a rank 3 starter, he would run away like a wisp of smoke.

However, the dreamland it created was much more powerful than one could imagine. Even an expert with a gold weapon would sink into depravity because of this. Even an expert with a earth mask would suffer a great loss from this dream.

However, in this space, outsiders would never be able to surpass the ninth stage of the initial artifact because most of them were suppressing their own strength. However, Mo Chen could not feel it because he had never broken through bronze equipment and was not suppressed at all.

Therefore, this was one of the paths that Lou Lan had taken. Unfortunately, most of the people had fallen into the trap of dreams or entered Lou Lan through another passageway.

Upon hearing Mo Chen's words, a trace of a strange smile appeared on Meng Hun's face. "Jijie ~ Although I can't control you, the little beauty by your side won't be so lucky!"

"What did you say!"

When Mo Chen heard this, his expression changed drastically as he subconsciously cried out.

Mo Chen was not a foolish person, so he naturally understood the meaning behind Nightmare's words. If he didn't guess wrong, the "little beauty" that Meng Hun was referring to was none other than Yan Mo Nuo. If Yan Mo Nuo was like him, falling into a dream, then that would mean …

"Jie Jie Jie, you'll know soon!"

With that, the dream soul suddenly disappeared into thin air. The room began to distort as the dream soul disappeared. Finally, it returned to the primal chaos. It turned into darkness, and Mo Chen lost consciousness.

When Mo Chen opened his eyes again, it was no longer the darkness that surrounded him. It was no longer that familiar little house. Instead, it was a huge cave!

The cave wasn't very high, but it was enough for an adult to stand on. However, its length was extremely wide, and right in front of where Mo Chen was, there was a river emitting cold air that was slowly flowing. In addition, there were two paths that led to two ends of the river. However, from time to time, a cold wind would blow over.

Around the cave, there were even oddly-shaped rocks that dripped with sparkling milky-white liquid. It was unknown whether it was due to the constant flow of time, but the cave seemed to be extremely damp and cold.

Mo Chen could not help but become quick-witted. He picked up the Flame Bow that had fallen to the side and hurriedly stood up from the ground. However, when he turned around, he immediately discovered that there was a person lying beside him.

At this moment, Yan Mo Nuo's eyes were closed as she lay on her side, water droplets dripping from her body.

He hurriedly squatted down and placed the flaming bow at his feet. Then, he stretched out his hand to rest the back of Yan Mo Nuo's neck on the crook of his arm and gently propped her up. He then anxiously shook her body, wanting to wake her up, but the parasitic spirit's voice suddenly sounded in Mo Chen's mind, "If you want her to die immediately, just scream!"

Mo Chen's body froze and he quickly shut his mouth. He then anxiously asked in his heart, "Then what do we do? Could I have watched her die in the illusion she created? If I don't wake her up, how could she possibly wake up? "

"If you shake her now, she will die even faster. There are, and there are two ways, but it depends on your choice. "

The parasitic spirit slowly said. It did not become anxious because of Mo Chen's anxiousness.

Hearing this, Mo Chen was elated and quickly asked, "What method?"

"The Dreamscape's ability to create Dreamscape is far beyond our imagination. If we're not careful with it, we might lose out, but their attack power is almost nil. Even a Level 1 Primer can easily kill it. Once it dies, the Dreamscape will naturally disappear."

The parasitic spirit thought for a moment and then suggested the first method, "However, this thing is very cunning and good at hiding, while this little girl will die in less than three days. Fortunately, I can catch its breath, making it impossible to hide. This is the first method, but when she wakes up, her lifespan will also become four days. "

"What about the second one?" After Mo Chen heard this, he remained silent for a moment. He decided to listen to the second method before deciding which one to choose.

Although the first method was the most straightforward and most reliable one, Mo Chen was not confident that he would be able to meet the deadline.

"The second method is even more difficult than the first."

The parasitic spirit did not say it out loud. Instead, it kept it in suspense.

Mo Chen raised his thick eyebrows and said a little unhappily, "Can you be a bit more direct? I hate dilly-dallying. "

"Alright, the second method. Actually, it is a method, I might as well not think about it."

Hearing Mo Chen's displeasure, the parasitic spirit immediately laughed and said, "The second method is to find that item within three days to extend her life. Moreover, with her current condition, she can still obtain great benefits.

"What chance?"

Mo Chen frowned and asked.

He felt that the parasitic soul wanted him to choose the second method. Although he didn't say it out loud, he emphasized on it.

This caused Mo Chen to be puzzled. Moreover, if he was really able to find that godly artifact within three days, then it would truly be a suspense. After all, there were many people that the ancestors went to search for. However, there weren't many that they could see.

"Heaven must not be revealed! But, to you, there are benefits that no one else can obtain, if you decide the second choice, then I will protect her safety here. Although I am only a remnant spirit, I will not be suppressed by this place at all, and only humans will be suppressed.

"Three days, huh …"

Mo Chen muttered to himself as he struggled violently in his mind.

If Mo Chen were to choose one of the two methods, he would definitely choose the first. Because an extra day was equivalent to having an extra bit of hope, an extra bit of survival. This was a person's normal mental state.

However, the parasitic spirit's words made Mo Chen hesitate. Since the parasitic spirit had the strength to protect Yan Mo Nuo, why not choose the second one?

Not to mention whether or not the parasitic spirit had the strength of a black iron grade, even if he killed the dream spirit right now, Yan Mo Nuo would wake up soon. But, after waking up, it would still be a weak little girl by his side, and if she were to say something unpleasant, it would be hard for him to let go of her hands and legs, and his trip would also be delayed quite a bit.

Thinking of this, Mo Chen fell silent.

A difference of one day might result in different results, but a single choice could also bring about fatal consequences.

After a long period of silence, Mo Chen asked, "Are you really able to protect her for three days?"

"That's right!" Even if I don't make a move, as long as my existence isn't higher than a black iron grade five, the evil spirit formation I have laid can completely block them! Including that Dream Soul! "

Seeing that Mo Chen seemed to loosen up, the parasitic spirit quickly opened its mouth and began to make a billing gesture.

After pondering for a moment more, a hint of determination flashed past Mo Chen's eyes. He placed Yan Mo Nuo back onto the ground, picked up the flaming bow, stood up and nodded, "Alright! I believe you! Mono will be under your protection for the next three days! "

As soon as Mo Chen's words came out, he suddenly felt a scorching heat on his arm that had the parasitic spirit remaining. Immediately, the dark energy of the parasitic spirit filled the entire cave and immediately, the dense energy gathered together, forming a huge face that floated in the air. "Don't worry, as long as I still have one breath left, she will be fine!"

As he spoke, a strange black energy suddenly appeared around Yan Mo Nuo's body, forming a black protective layer. Mo Chen could not see what was inside.

Mo Chen took in a deep breath and exhaled another mouthful of impure air. He nodded his head and said nothing more. Then, he took a step forward and started swimming towards the current that was emitting cold air.

He had already made up his mind. Since the river could flow, this meant that there was an exit, and the exit must be the source of the river!

Without a source, how could water flow in? And it was an unending stream? In such cases, there is usually an exit.

Thus, Mo Chen embarked on his own journey, and this journey, once again, had a qualitative change to Mo Chen!

This river was extremely long, to the point where Mo Chen had to walk for an hour to reach the end of it. However, the water continued to flow in the opposite direction of Mo Chen, flowing endlessly.

This also meant that they had not reached the end yet. However, Mo Chen was still able to keep his cool and he was not anxious at all.

This place was so dark and cold, Mo Chen really didn't think this place would be that simple.

After another hour passed, Mo Chen finally arrived at the end of the cave. However, there was no exit at the end of the cave, but rather a wet rock wall. At the end of the river, there was a huge cold pond.

Mo Chen quickly circulated the power within his body to dispel the cold that continued to invade his body, warming him up a little. After that, he looked around and discovered that although the surroundings were very spacious, there was a stone tablet at the edge of the cold pond.

From a distance, the stone tablet looked extremely dilapidated. There was even a piece of it missing in the upper left corner. Perhaps this was caused by the passage of countless years.

Mo Chen thought for a moment before walking over.

Although the stone tablet was broken, the words on it could still be clearly seen. This situation made Mo Chen feel strange, because he felt that it was out of place.

The three blood-red words fell into Mo Chen's eyes. However, to Mo Chen's astonishment, he could not understand the meaning behind the words. As time passed, these three words did not have any trace of erasure on them.

On the side of these three words, there was a line of small characters. This time, Mo Chen understood. Moreover, these small characters were not the normal italics, but the Yan Clan's small characters during the Warring States Era!

Mo Chen's parents were archaeologists, which was why Mo Chen had come into contact with these kinds of things when he was young. It was also because he also had a fondness for ancient languages. After pondering for a while, Mo Chen quickly understood the meaning of this line of words.

"The path of time is impassable; all spells are limitless. The Celestial Pond connected to Lou Lan, and every day is like a year."

These were the words left behind on the stone stele.
