Chapter 833: This is the Good Deed Done by Xiao Han!
“Ninglan City Lord, is there any instruction from the academy?” Lanke, as the personal secretary beside Ninglan Qiuyue, needed to help this city lord handle many affairs.
Upon seeing Ninglan Qiuyue take the academy’s exclusive communication device, her frown prompted her to ask instinctively.
“It’s Teaching Assistant Xiao Han… She secretly came to the Expanding Realm not long ago to conduct a secret experiment. This was personally informed to me by the Academy Head just now. That experiment caused a huge stir, and we need to coordinate management and security.”
Ninglan Qiuyue said as she activated the spell image of the Great Knowledge Seed, revealing the map of the Expanding Realm.
“Coordinate positioning… this place…” Ninglan Qiuyue locked onto the approximate location on the Expanding Realm map based on the coordinates provided by the Academy Head.
If there’s a shelter at this location, she needs to grant permissions and issue notifications for comprehensive security and compliance with all directives.
“This place… I remember it, there’s a huge world rift in the sky, and there are no shelters nearby.” Lanke interjected.
“I know, it’s fortunate that Xiao Han is indeed aware to create problems in less populated areas… in this case, we shouldn’t encounter too much trouble.”
“Not too much trouble? What do you mean?”
“Just that the academy will take action; we just need to wait for the results~” Ninglan Qiuyue shrugged, “However, we still need to send notices to the nearby shelters that have established friendly relations, reminding them to be cautious. If there are any projects or other activities, they shouldn’t come to this place.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange it right away.”
While busy at the Ninglan Realm, things suddenly became lively at the Expanding Realm.
Mei Linde, as the first witch to react, quickly arrived at the scene and urgently executed a spatial lockdown.
Although the Expanding Realm technically belongs to the Witch Academy, it’s not hard for other extraordinary beings to reach the Expanding Realm; anyone with spatial abilities can come here.
The sudden stir naturally attracted others’ attention.
It should be noted that this disturbance transcended the boundaries between the Expanding Realm and the Core Realm, arising from vibrations in the Primordial Dream World!
While this was also related to the fragile boundary between the Core Realm and the Expanding Realm, the ability to influence by crossing spatial boundaries was indeed a matter of a higher level.
After solidifying the spatial lockdown, the area’s space was “reinforced,” making it unreachable by ordinary spatial means.
This spatial lockdown technique is commonly used to prevent others from intruding or escaping using spatial abilities.
Although this couldn’t completely quell everyone’s curiosity, it was enough for her to buy some time.
The two things she needed to do were first to gather people no matter what.
She had already started to do this, not only gathering people but also reminding Ninglan Qiuyue and the others to pay attention to the defenses of the Expanding Realm.
The second was to understand what exactly was happening here.
Upon arriving at the scene and seeing the two giant trees growing backwards, she instantly knew it was Xiao Han’s doing.
She should have thought of this earlier…
Reflecting back, Xiao Han had created disturbances like the embryonic form of a field, Void Rifts, and totems without reporting.
Now that she has actively reported, there would definitely be some big happenings!
As Mei Linde was sighing, two other figures suddenly appeared, drawing her attention.
One was the troublesome Betrayer Witch Sheril, and the other was the problematic Bai Yu.
What surprised her was… how did these two manage to come together? Their simultaneous appearance didn’t seem coincidental.
Moreover, she had enforced a spatial lockdown.
Sheril had torn open the space right in front of her… was that showing too little respect?
“By the way, what exactly happened here? Why did the Primordial Dream World suddenly have abnormal movements?” As soon as Sheril arrived, she saw Mei Linde and thus asked.
Bai Yu, upon arrival, anxiously surveyed her surroundings.
After learning that there was a disturbance in the Expanding Realm, her first thought was of Xiao Han, although there was no evidence proving she was responsible.
But her intuition told her that all of this was closely related to Xiao Han!
“It’s really Xiao Han!”
Upon seeing the iconic Great Knowledge Tree in the distance, Bai Yu instantly recognized it.
“Oh? Did you guess right?” Sheril leaned closer and asked with a smile.
“What happened to Xiao Han?” Bai Yu inquired anxiously, intending to move forward.
“Wait!” Principal Mei pulled Bai Yu back, making her stop, “That’s the epicenter of the Primordial Dream’s eruption. It’s clear that Xiao Han is the instigator of this accident. Don’t recklessly go over there; the Primordial Dream is no joke!”
“But Xiao Han is still over there!” Bai Yu struggled to contain her emotions, but touching upon the person most important to her made it difficult to hold back.
“However, the Primordial Dream has rules entirely different from reality. Even if you’re an Extraordinary Witch, there’s no guarantee that you’ll fare better than Xiao Han unless you possess deep mastery of the Soul Great Topic!” Principal Mei earnestly explained the dangers of the Primordial Dream to Bai Yu.
The dangers in the Primordial Dream aren’t from how scary the dream creatures within it are; that’s secondary. The danger lies within the Primordial Dream itself!
No matter what kind of existence, even a Truth Witch, must abide by the dream’s rule framework once inside. Even possessing the powerful strength and means to destroy a world means nothing within the dream.
“Isn’t the Ordinary Topic a branch of the Soul Great Topic?”
“Ordinary? Ask yourself, after stepping into the Ordinary Topic, does your understanding of the soul lean towards dreams? You know this is merely a branch. Without a basic understanding of dreams, everything is just talk… The Primordial Dream is not the same as the Original Dream, and don’t use your experiences in the Original Dream to reason.”
Principal Mei uncharacteristically admonished Bai Yu, an Extraordinary Witch, emphasizing that even with changes in identity or strength, every witch’s growth needs repeated experiences to mature.
“If you don’t believe it, ask that person beside you if she dares to recklessly enter the Primordial Dream.”
“I dare~ I’ve gone in a few times!” Sheril laughed, seeing a witch preparing to use her as a teaching example: “I remember quite clearly, a total of three times~ Each time is etched in my memory~ The first time, due to an accident, my consciousness was asleep for 162 years.”
“The second time, my soul entered the Primordial Dream, but I got lost in the dream, and a senior witch accidentally summoned me out, losing my original body and even having to compensate for the materials for their dream-summoning experiment. That cost me dearly, but I got my life back.”
“The third time… I don’t want to talk about the process. I can only say that a Truth Witch seemed to have kicked me out of the Primordial Dream. To this day, I don’t want to venture into the Primordial Dream for a fourth time. After all… bad things come in threes~”
Listening to her account, Principal Mei nearly lost her temper when she first heard it, but as things progressed, she managed to suppress that impulse.
Moreover, Sheril’s experiences shocked her. Three experiences, three perils, and two rescues… why doesn’t this Betrayer Witch just stay in the Primordial Dream?
Why come to the Main World to cause trouble for witches?
However, as an Extraordinary Witch, she’d been to the Primordial Dream as well. Her topic is also a branch of the Soul Great Topic, so she had traversed the Primordial Dream, but never dared to go deep.
Her only gain was… that group of Fool Dreams.
“See? Understand now? Don’t blindly enter the Primordial Dream for Xiao Han’s sake, understand?”
“I… understand…”
Bai Yu gazed at the distant figure, nodding heavily.
She truly couldn’t imagine if Xiao Han finally returned to reality only to find herself trapped in the Primordial Dream. In that case, Xiao Han would once again have to enter the dangerous Primordial Dream, and it would all be for her.
“Good, just don’t act impulsively! Xiao Han’s only danger now is the Primordial Dream. Even if those from other Extraordinary Academies come over, they won’t dare to act recklessly, so our primary focus now is to resolve potential troubles that may arise later.”
“By the way, you should pay more attention to the Abyss Nightmare Academy,” Sheril interjected at that moment.
“Huh? Why?” Bai Yu asked, puzzled.
“Because the Abyss Demons, as an extraordinary force in the life wholesale market, also study dreams, especially the exploration of dream creatures, and have already made preliminary achievements, such as Abyss Dream Demons. Although the Dream Demons aren’t truly known as life yet, they aren’t purely dream beings either,” Principal Mei explained.
“Abyss Dream Demons?” This term instantly brought Bai Yu’s memory back to the time she had spent with Xiao Han in Ninglan New City.
“Exactly. They were the ones that appeared in Ninglan New City and were involved in the assassination attempt on Xiao Han,” Principal Mei nodded.
Mei Linde still had a deep impression of it; the Dream Demons, as part of the Abyss World’s exploration of the Primordial Dream, have had a significant role, even having other uses.
However, no one expected Xiao Han to directly uncover the essence of the Dream Demons, combining the properties of Nightmares to complete the Dream Demon Spell, effectively using the Abyss World’s research as a witch’s wedding gown.
As these three witches continued their conversation, the Expanding Realm gradually gathered many figures, some witches, and others from different Extraordinary Academies.
They flew in from afar, after all, this space had been sealed off by Mei Linde.
“Mei~ Why did you suddenly call us all here?”
“Yeah, I was in the middle of an experiment. I hope the cauldron doesn’t explode when I get back~”
“By the way, didn’t any witch notice that tree in the distance?”
“Yeah, that’s Xiao Han, isn’t it? She really… knows how to stir things up better than us Extraordinary Witches.”
“How can you be so calm about it?”
“Why can’t I? Hasn’t Xiao Han done absurd things before?”
Amidst the witches’ debates, extraordinary beings from other academies also arrived one after another.
The sudden incident in the Expanding Realm greatly stimulated their nerves.
After all, who knows what those witches have done in the Expanding Realm?
If they were targeted, they would need to respond immediately.
Upon sensing the spatial lockdown, they anxiously rushed over in the most primitive way.
As soon as they arrived, they saw the witches gathered here and that particularly striking… golden giant tree.
“Is this yet another prank by you witches?”
The first to arrive on the scene, the Holy Angel, looked at the distant anomaly, then at the group of witches, and inquired.
“What do you mean, yet again? Why say it so harshly… we are just conducting our usual experiments and caused a bit of a stir. Did it require you to make such a big fuss about it?”
At this moment, Mei Linde, as the Academy Head, was the first to step forward, confronting the birdman.
“Then why are you nervously sealing the space?”
“Need I even say? Certainly to prevent you hot-headed youngsters from suddenly teleporting into the Primordial Dream,” Mei Linde crossed her arms and pointed in the direction of the anomaly.
It could be said that Mei Linde’s excuse was nearly flawless.
This time, she didn’t fear the other party causing trouble. They wouldn’t dare to enter the Primordial Dream, especially with a Betrayer Witch by her side.
Moreover, the main point was that the situation in the Main World was exceedingly dire.
The opponent was holding the World Core, but they only had this one trump card.
At face value, it looked like they could mutually destroy each other, but no one would be able to bear the price of the Main World being destroyed.
The witches were also continuously testing their limits.
Just waiting for the moment when they displayed a flaw due to exhaustion!
“What exactly are you witches experimenting with, causing the Primordial Dream to break through the boundary of reality?”
At this moment, the hurriedly arrived wizards also stepped forward to question.
Of course, they weren’t blind, and they weren’t faceblind either. Upon seeing that the instigator of all this was that familiar Little Witch, they nearly couldn’t suppress the impulse to k*ll her right there!
She was just a Little Witch!
Who could predict what extent she could achieve with her extraordinary abilities?
Even if she ascended to extraordinary status and ceased to strive for progress, what else did she have?
She still possessed the embryonic form of a realm!
She would surely become a Holy Realm Witch in the future, and she was also a Body Cultivation Holy Realm Witch.
She possessed these two Great Spellbooks! Reflecting on Mei Linde, who initially only had one Great Spellbook, was already enough to give people headaches.
Not to mention she had the power of the unclear totem, coupled with her current ability to delve into the Primordial Dream…
Who would dare to say such a witch wouldn’t amount to anything after achieving extraordinary status?
Now they prayed, hoping that this Little Witch would remain trapped in the Primordial Dream for hundreds or thousands of years until her lifespan ran out!
“The Expanding Realm belongs to us witches; what we experiment with here is none of your business!”
At this moment, the response from the witch side remained quite resolute, which made the faces of other Extraordinary Academies’ extraordinary beings gloomy.
“The Primordial Dream breaking through reality and descending into the Expanding Realm concerns the entire Main World. Naturally, we cannot ignore it. Who can guarantee it won’t threaten the stability of the Core Realm?”
“Oh? Are you saying that your involvement can solve the problem? I’d like to see that.”
