Seizing Dreams

Chapter 56.1 - Hidden Sun



Ch56.1 – Hidden Sun

This unforeseen event really happened too quickly; Chen Yekai was the first to react. He raised his gun to aim and fire several rapid shots at the snake tail, but it had swiftly disappeared. Zhou Sheng was in complete disbelief. When he raised his head again, the platform tilted, and a blazing colossal monster spread its wings as it clambered up.

The titan was about 10-metres tall, its upper body had Lin Xun’s human form while its lower body was the snake tail of the Feathered Serpent god. He laughed maniacally, “You’ve been under my control for so long, and now, you still dare to think about seizing your dreamscape back?! It’s precisely your anger that ruins you——!

“Chen Laoshi……” Yu Hao struggled to press down on his wound.

“Yu Hao!” Chen Yekai shouted frantically.

“Believe……in yourself.” Yu Hao’s voice trembled, “Don’t be afraid……I……I’m capable of regeneration……”

There was none of the anticipated sunlight illuminating the dreamscape. The platform was crumbling at an alarming rate, and the blazing fires had brought ruin to this entire world. Bursts of lightning rained down, and the world sunk into suffocating darkness. The burning asphalt monster unfurled its wings and flew towards them, charging towards the ruins of the falling platform.

Thousands of asphalt monsters revived, and like demons spawned from hell, they walked into the world of Chichén Itzá.

Chen Yekai was engaged in a difficult battle with Lin Xun with his gun, but with a powerful strike, he got slammed into the ruins.

“YU HAO——”

Within the darkness, only Zhou Sheng’s sorrowful cry that carried his heartrending pain could be heard.

Dream World·Chichén Itzá

The huge fire that obscured the sky had destroyed the entire conscious world. The platform collapsed. Chen Yekai roared madly as he fired at the huge serpentine monster, yet it betrayed not the slightest trace of fear.

“Since you’ve already pledged your allegiance to me, why bother taking such unnecessary actions?” Lin Xun’s sinister voice rang throughout the world.

“No!” Chen Yekai’s body was completely battered, yet he refused to give up. His voice trembled, “I……won’t fear you anymore……I won’t!”

It seemed like the sun would never rise, dark clouds still loomed overhead.

“End this ba!” Lin Xun’s voice resonated through the entire dreamscape, “No matter what you do, you’ll never be able to change reality——” It then proceeded to immediately strangle Chen Yekai with a gigantic hand engulfed in flames.

“In my world……” Chen Yekai gasped for breath, “Aside from Ryuusei, there are still my friends……there’s Yu Hao, Zhou Sheng……I can’t let them just, in my dreamscape……”

Chen Yekai tenaciously struggled and let out a loud roar; he wrenched Lin Xun’s demonic hands away and fired a shot that penetrated through Lin Xun’s massive left eye. Lin Xun let out a wail of anguish as he grabbed his eye and ruthlessly flung Chen Yekai into the sea of fire.

“Zhou Sheng……” Yu Hao was lying in Zhou Sheng’s embrace. His hand dripped with blood as he raised it and pointed towards the horizon. He could feel his body healing, but the power of the serpent demon was too malicious; it wreaked havoc in his body, and it fought with Chen Yekai for the power to reign over this world!

“The sun is just……being blocked……by the……the clouds……”

Zhou Sheng inhaled deeply. He closed his eyes, knelt on his jindouyun on one knee and tightly hugged Yu Hao.

“As long as……the sunlight……appears……I will……”

“Come.” Zhou Sheng said in a low voice. Under this dark sky, their bodies shone just like Chen Yekai’s after he had seized his totem back. Zhou Sheng’s short hair burned like golden fire, like a scorching sun illuminating the vaults of heaven.

Meanwhile, the plumage of Yu Hao’s wings that were drooping on the jindouyun fluttered about in the air, just like fragmented pieces of moonlight falling onto this dark world of despair.

In the hotel room.

Chen Yekai’s breathing became frantic in his dream; sweat had broken out on his forehead as if he were in the clutches of a nightmare.

Yu Hao shivered slightly in his deep slumber. He had been unconsciously using Zhou Sheng’s arm as a pillow, and now, he turned around while he dreamt and hugged Zhou Sheng’s waist. At the same time, Zhou Sheng rolled to face Yu Hao; the two of them embraced each other in this manner with Yu Hao stuck close to the front of Zhou Sheng’s shoulders, and they nestled against each other in a tight embrace.

Chichén Itzá in the Dream World.

“Come……”

“Come.”

“ALL, OF, YOU, COME——!” Zhou Sheng suddenly raised his head and let out a thunderous roar that levelled the ground at the dark heavens.

A strong light rose in the sky. Yu Hao weakly opened his eyes and gazed at the sky. Within his bright pupils, the reflection of the cloud layers that had been scattered could be seen; blazing sunlight streamed through the gap in the clouds.

The sun has risen! It penetrated through the layers of clouds and illuminated both of them.

Yu Hao’s injured body began to rapidly repair itself, his wounds healing even faster under the sunlight.

“My……sunlight……” He raised his hand towards the sun, and in the next moment, the scorching sun that had been hidden by the dark clouds transformed into the Golden Crow Wheel, suddenly erupting with countless fiery meteors!

Under the illumination of that sunlight! Yu Hao’s body healed completely!

“I’m okay now!” Yu Hao said, “Zhou Sheng! I’ve recovered!”

The serpent demon embodiment of Lin Xun roared and looked up at the sky in fear; he grabbed Chen Yekai with one hand and raised his other hand up to shield against the glare of the sun.

Flying fiery meteors plummeted, penetrating layers and layers of thick cloud; they fell relentlessly, and every meteor transformed into a warrior clad in full-body armour upon impact. They converged into an army on earth and rushed into the sea of fire, waging war against the burning asphalt monsters!

Zhou Sheng lowered his head and looked at Yu Hao.

“They’re here.” Yu Hao smiled. His wounds had already recovered, he shook his wings out and left Zhou Sheng’s embrace. He unsheathed his two daggers and shouted, “Let’s fight!”

Zhou Sheng straightened up and looked towards the gap where the sunlight streamed through. The roar of a dragon made the world tremble; in the wake of millions of meteors, the black dragon was the last to pass through the Golden Crow Wheel! Zhou Sheng spun in the air and stepped onto the black dragon’s back to mount it, then shouted, “Lin Xun——! You beast!!”

Lin Xun roared at Yu Hao. Yu Hao dodged in midair; with the daggers in his grasp, he drew a beautiful full moon arc in the air — a strong light burst forth and shot towards Lin Xun who had a human body and a snake’s tail. Zhou Sheng then took control of the massive dragon, passed through the full moon arc and ruthlessly slammed into the huge serpent demon.

The enormous dragon subdued the serpent demon; it spewed out teal-coloured, scorching dragon fire from its mouth. Zhou Sheng was clad in full-body silver armour, a dragon knight incarnate; he swung his jingubang and smashed his rod down on the serpent’s head!

With daggers in both hands, Yu Hao unfurled his wings and led thousands of troops to rush into the center of the ruins!

Overhead, the scattered clouds coalesced, and this world once more descended into a fiery purgatory. Blood gushed out from all over the giant serpent demon and its scales were peeling off. But once the sunlight disappeared, it began healing rapidly within the darkness.

“We can’t kill that guy!” Zhou Sheng shouted from the back of his dragon, “Think of something!”

Yu Hao glided through the air while avoiding the burning asphalt monsters that flew past. The warriors on the ground shot arrows into the sky, felling the monsters one after another.

“Where’s Chen Laoshi?!” Yu Hao shouted.

“Go look for him!” Zhou Sheng shouted, “Think of something! There must be a way to kill him!”

Yu Hao glimpsed Chen Yekai’s ragged body as he struggled out of the ruins.

“Forget about me!” Chen Yekai shouted, “Think of how to escape! I’ll lure it away!”

How do we kill it?! Yu Hao desperately scoured through his memories and suddenly remembered what Nakagawa Ryuusei said to him before they left the well.

“What is it?” Yu Hao shouted at Zhou Sheng, “Ryuusei said, that as long as we have one thing, we can defeat Lin Xun! Where do we go to look for it? We need to hurry! Otherwise this world will be ruined!”

Zhou Sheng struck that giant snake serpent onto the ground with his jingubang. With a resounding blast, flames and ashes exploded outwards in all directions; he turned around while fully engaged and answered, “You don’t need to look for it! Just think about it, and it’ll appear!”

“Then what is it?” Yu Hao asked anxiously.

“What is it?!” Zhou Sheng shouted at Yu Hao, “How would I know?! Whose hands did he say it was in!”

Suddenly, the snake serpent roared as it rushed out from the sea of fire and seized the huge dragon. Zhou Sheng lost his footing and was flung off. Just as his body was momentarily suspended in the air, about to fall, Yu Hao flew past and caught him.

Yu Hao cried out, “Ryuusei said, it’s something Kaikai gave me?!”

Zhou Sheng swung his jingubang and swept away hundreds of flying flaming monsters with one sweep, “Is it the shirt?!”

Yu Hao, “No! I’ve already returned it!”

Chen Yekai fired a shot within the ruins, and a pillar of light squarely hit the serpent demon’s arm. The serpent demon roared angrily and a fiery shock wave burst forth from its entire body, flinging Zhou Sheng’s dragon mount away. Then it turned and lunged towards Chen Yekai.

“Both of you, leave……” Chen Yekai turned around and sprinted off; he was actually trying to lure the serpent demon away.

Zhou Sheng, “Kaikai! Don’t be reckless!”

Yu Hao, “Where is he going?”

“The waterfall!” Zhou Sheng saw the path that Chen Yekai was running through and knew that he intended to rush towards the waterfall. Only the surging Iguazu Falls could resist the flames of the serpent demon.

The huge dragon flew over and grabbed Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng. Yu Hao hugged Zhou Sheng’s waist, and the two of them dove down and flew towards the running Chen Yekai.

“If it’s not the shirt then what is it?” Zhou Sheng said, “Calm down! Calm down! Think carefully! Yu Hao! Has he given you a lot of things?”

“Just that one……”

“He must have given you something else? Did you ask him for something? That night!” Zhou Sheng remembered now, “Knife! Knife! The scalpel!”

Yu Hao suddenly recalled it too and shouted, “We’re coming!”

Chen Yekai was already on fire. He rushed to the front of the Iguazu falls. Zhou Sheng took Yu Hao with him as they guided the huge black dragon and led thousands of troops to the Iguazu Falls to create a defensive array.

“Kaikai! Take the weapon——”

Zhou Sheng’s voice rang out. The two of them rode the huge dragon while Yu Hao pointed two fingers at the sky. He closed his eyes and recalled that night. Blood suddenly gushed from his palm, and then the endless thunderstorms that stretched as far as the eyes could see were drawn into his palm.

Within a raging thunderstorm that seemed to herald the apocalypse, Chen Yekai raised his head as he stood in front of the Iguazu Falls.

The serpent demon spread its wings, relentlessly pursuing the three of them as it flew behind them.

Yu Hao directed the seemingly endless bursts of lightning bolts to illuminate this dark world, and immediately afterwards all of the lightning disappeared without a trace. A silver light flashed in the darkness before converging into the form of a silver white scalpel.

Zhou Sheng grasped the scalpel with two fingers and flung it at the ground; the scalpel was surrounded by streaks of lightning, and Chen Yekai caught ahold of it.

“Kill him.” Zhou Sheng pulled his helmet down and gathered his strength! His whole body was erupting with golden flames!

Yu Hao parted from Zhou Sheng.

The Archangel spread his wings open, and General brandished his shining jingubang!

The huge dragon spewed out dragon fire! The thousands of troops released their arrows all at once!

The current of the Iguazu Falls cascaded down with a thundering rumble, and tens of thousands tonnes of water jets exploded out towards the horizon!

Finale of Kaikai’s dreamscape coming up!
