Chapter 959 Dream Nightmare Labyrinth of Yggdrasil
Chapter 959 Dream Nightmare Labyrinth of Yggdrasil
—–Suddenly, the jewel began absorbing the Yggdrasil Tree’s energy, but it didn’t seemed to exhaust the tree at all. It continued not only absorbing the tree’s power, but also the skies, the ground below, its roots, the surrounding mountains, the grasslands, and more. It continued doing this for a few seconds before stopping and then, merging with nothingness and disappearing.
TRUUUUMMM…!
A second after, something wondrous emerged, as a large door materialized itself over the tree, lustrous, big, wonderful, majestic. It was all those words and more, and it was right in front of me. Whatever it harbored, it will surely be something incredible, definitely.
[The [Dream Nightmare Dungeon Labyrinth Seed (S+ Grade)] has been successfully planted]
[The [Dream Nightmare Dungeon Labyrinth of Yggdrasil] has been created]
[Its doors can only be open by the creator of the Original Seed]
”Alright then, let’s step in and see what’s inside…”
I quickly pushed the door open, as I felt my entire body and soul getting absorbed inside a new, completely different space.
FLUOSH!
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself standing in the middle of an enormous grassland. Surrounding me there was a sea of blue water waving peacefully. Was I in a big island?
And in front of me, a tree, bigger than the one back home by far, it was so big and glorious it extended over the entire island- no, this was as continent. There was a desert to the west, ice lands to the east, jungles to the north, and this grassland in the south. The sky was blue and peaceful, but I noticed birds flapping their wings around.
It felt like a world on its totality, not just a dream… Is this the power of a Dream Dungeon? The realism is completely shocking. But I wonder if this is all, at the end, truly real…
Well, I might as well investigate further.
I quickly used my wings to maneuver across the skies, I didn’t find any living beings at all until I got closer to the giant tree, and there, I saw them, enormous creatures resembling birds made of wood and covered on leaves and flowers, they resembled enormous, ten-meter-big Falcons, they were all from Rank 7 Initial Stage to Upper Stage. Which meant they were crazy strong, of course!

Oh, I see, so the System can do this now, huh? It is a very detailed Status which also shows the important stuff without making it too big of a deal either! And these guys all seem like small fry to me- however, there was something more. When I entered the dungeon, there were some new notifications. These were not directly related to the System at all. It almost seemed as if the Dungeon itself was able to speak to me through the System instead.
[You have entered the [Dream Nightmare Dungeon Labyrinth of Yggdrasil]!]
[The [Challenge of the Dungeon] has started]
[Whenever the [Challenge of the Dungeon] is completed, you can acquire the Dungeon on its totality, and acquire wondrous rewards]
[Defeat the Final Boss and understand the history and secrets behind the Dungeon to reach the end of the Challenge!]
”Wow, System, did you really said that?”
[Not really, but these messages were sent to me by the Dream Dungeon Seed. It seems to have gained consciousness of its own, and it seems to be challenging you to complete its trial.]
”A trial, huh… I am already super busy; can I even complete this right now?”
[You can certainly complete it in a few hours at most. Time Dilation here is a thing as well, so in your divine realm if hours passes here, only minutes will pass there, which will be merely seconds in the real world.]
”Wow, this Time Dilation is insane!”
[It only lasts as long as the challenge is on, and if the challenge is on, there are dangerous Monsters, so it is not something you can easily abuse… Nonetheless, maybe bringing the family here wouldn’t be a bad thing, as everyone could grow stronger with this… Also, I have another special thing for you, but I’ll need Kate’s assistance.]
”Kate’s Assistance… Does this has to do anything with the Sharing the System’s powers or something?”
[To an extent, yes. You’ve already been sharing them through the Job System to everybody, but this can be upgraded further, just like you wanted, allowing people to administrate their Divine Power and buy Divine Abilities or Divinities through their Status… Additionally, I want to reincorporate the Job System and evolve it into the Divine Job System, which you will also acquire!]
”Wait, so I can level up as well?!”
[Something like that… How about we go back for now?]
”Sure- Ah, they spotted me.”
”CRAAAAA!”
”CRYAAA!”
”CROAAH!”
Before I could leave, a flock of dozens of [Yggdrasil’s Falcon Guardian] spotted me and flew towards my direction relentlessly, flapping their enormous, leaf and flower-covered wings made of wood.
”You bastards are quite relentless… Alright, if you really want it, you’ll have it!” I smiled. This was the perfect time to try out my newest powers anyways, especially the power of my Divine Abilities upon Leveling Up!
FLAAAASH!
Suddenly, the flock of [Yggdrasil’s Falcon Guardian] began to unleash a storm of slicing leaves which were also their feathers, the enormous storm quickly took form into a gigantic shape and clashed was about to clash against me.
FLUOOSH!
”Spirit Creation: Black Hole Spirit.”
TRUUUUUMMM…!
Suddenly, a black hole broke through space and time, it was smaller than the palm of my draconic hands, but in a single second, it absorbed most of the storm’s power before disappearing in an instant…
”Woah…”
