Chapter 75 – Morax with Cold Eyes

These people all widened their eyes, unable to understand how a young man could know about events from thousands of years ago.

Just at that moment, Qiu Bai seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around!

A black cloud-like substance was rushing toward them at an incredible speed!

Everyone struck by this black cloud, except for Bonanus and Qiu Bai, collapsed to the ground.

“Adeptus Lord, what happened to them?”

“Will these mortals be alright?”

Bonanus took a step back, dodging the black cloud’s attack, and loudly asked Qiu Bai in front of him.

“They’re fine, just temporarily fallen into slumber.”

“However, this black cloud is a bit strange.”

Qiu Bai swept his Divine Sense over the few individuals, confirming they were unharmed, then spoke to Bonanus.

He then stroked his chin, observing the rapidly darting black cloud before him.

“Hahaha, not bad for two humans.”

“In that case, let me see what you fear most.”

The black cloud emitted a piercing voice before abruptly charging toward Qiu Bai.

“What I fear most?”

“Seems like there really isn’t anything.”

Hearing the black cloud’s words, Qiu Bai curled his lips in a disdainful smile.

He simply stood there, watching as the black cloud crashed toward him.

The scene shifted, and Qiu Bai found himself high in the sky.

Looking around, he realized this was the sky above the Guili Plains.

And standing high in the air alongside him was one of The Seven Archons, the God of Rock, Morax!

However, this “Morax” had an exceptionally cold gaze!

Bonanus, standing behind Qiu Bai, had also been pulled into this scene, staring blankly at the figure in the sky before them.

The sun in the sky was blindingly bright, the flowing white clouds, the small streams below—everything felt so real.

“Interesting, pulled me into a dream, have you?”

“Though, if I wished, I could break free at any moment.”

“But this dream is quite amusing.”

Qiu Bai smiled as he looked at the “Morax” before him, who appeared to be at his peak.

Suddenly, a massive black mouth opened in the sky, blocking out the sunlight.

Above the black mouth were two enormous eyes glowing with white light, fixed intently on Qiu Bai.

“I never expected you to be a Demon God like me!”

“Though I cannot probe your memories, I have some understanding of this later era.”

“Morax ended an entire era—you cannot possibly not fear him!!”

The black mouth let out a piercing cry, filled with resentment and fury!

“You’re too noisy. Shut up for now.”

Qiu Bai rubbed his ear with a finger.

With a wave of his hand, a stream of Yin-Yang Dual Qi flew out, directly sealing the black mouth shut.

“Mmph…”

The large black eyes spun around in confusion, wanting to speak but unable to utter a word.

“Why is Rex Lapis here?”

“Adeptus Lord, what is happening?”

Bonanus stood dazedly in the sky, looking at Qiu Bai beside her and Morax in the distance.

She hadn’t yet fully processed the situation.

“We’ve been pulled into a dream by the Demon God of Dreams.”

“But don’t worry, that Demon God of Dreams has already been silenced by me.”

Qiu Bai pointed at the enormous black face in the sky, then turned to the stunned Bonanus beside him with a smile.

“This Morax is an illusion created by the Demon God of Dreams, seemingly in his strongest state.”

“And this ‘Morax’ seems to hold hostility toward us.”

Qiu Bai chuckled, looking at the “Morax” standing high in the sky as well.

“Then, what should we do!”

“Let’s run, Adeptus Lord!”

Bonanus’s small face was filled with urgency as she stood in the air, shouting at Qiu Bai.

“Bonanus, do I look that weak to you?”

“Have some confidence in me.”

Hearing this, Qiu Bai twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled at Bonanus beside him.

“But didn’t Adeptus Lord lose to Rex Lapis in just a few moves a thousand years ago?”

“And you’ve been in deep sleep ever since—how could you possibly defeat Rex Lapis!”

Bonanus cried out anxiously. She wasn’t mocking Qiu Bai; she just didn’t want him to die.

“Don’t worry, Bonanus. This Demon God of Dreams…”

“Even if I die in this dream, it’ll only give me a headache for a while.”

Hearing this, Qiu Bai smiled and waved his hand dismissively. It seemed he had no choice but to show off his strength.

“Adeptus Lord…”

Bonanus looked at Qiu Bai, feeling an indescribable worry, but she could only obediently nod.

“System, scan this so-called Morax.”

Qiu Bai communicated with the system in his mind.

“Ding!”

Name: Morax

Identity: God of Stone, God of Rock among The Seven Archons, God of Wealth, Lord of Stone, God of Contracts, Ancestor of All Adepti, Rex Lapis!

Divine Power Level: Half-Step Top-Tier Demon God!

Comprehensive Strength: Preliminary Top-Tier Demon God!

The Demon God of Dreams smuggled the dreams and fantasies of a large number of Liyue people to create this Morax, indistinguishable from the real one.

Additionally, because the Demon God of Dreams was nearly killed by a single finger-summoned meteor from the God of Stone Morax during the Archon War, it simulated the strength accordingly.

The dreams simulated by the Demon God of Dreams continuously consume Divine Power, intending to make the host, also a Demon God, suffer equal pain!

The estimated duration of this super dream is two hours.

“What does ‘comprehensive strength preliminary top-tier Demon God’ mean?”

“Isn’t that the same as me? But I have to say, this Morax guy has quite a few identities and aliases.”

Qiu Bai twitched the corner of his mouth, stroked his chin, and muttered somewhat speechlessly in his mind.

“Two hours? That might not be enough.”

“Hey buddy, if you’re running low on Divine Power, I can help you recover!”

Thinking this, Qiu Bai looked very concernedly at the Demon God of Dreams in the sky and shouted loudly.

The Demon God of Dreams’s large eyes were filled with confusion as it looked somewhat puzzled at Qiu Bai, who was smiling at it.

Demon God of Dreams: Ω Ω?

“Adeptus Lord, be extremely careful!”

“Rex Lapis’s strength is incredibly formidable!”

Bonanus had already flown to what she considered a safe distance, gathering Adeptal Energy as she shouted toward Qiu Bai high in the sky.

“Heh, don’t worry, Bonanus.”

“I’ll be fine.”

Qiu Bai used Divine Power to speak to Bonanus in the distance with a smile.

But Bonanus was still very worried. Having witnessed the Archon War,

she knew all too well just how terrifying Rex Lapis’s strength was!

Yet she could only clasp her small hands and gaze worriedly at Qiu Bai in the distance.

Then, Qiu Bai began walking step by step through the air, slowly advancing toward the location of “Morax.”

With each step, his appearance changed slightly. Qiu Bai’s clothes gradually emitted an ink-white Divine Power.

His garments transformed bit by bit, the torn fabric glowing with an ink-white light as it drifted backward.

His face glowed as if cracking apart, transforming into the appearance of the Adeptus of the Two Principles.

The Two Polarities Tai Chi at his waist radiated a dazzling light, and with a flash of flowing brilliance in his hand, he drew forth the Chaos Sword.

Step by step, he walked through the air, advancing toward the location of “Morax”!

“Come, Morax! Let me witness the peak of your power!”
