They strolled around the mountain village until nine at night. Nannan was so sleepy that she fell asleep on Lu Sheng's shoulder. After returning Nannan to the couple, Lu Sheng and the others returned to the dormitory to rest.
"Lu Sheng, see you tomorrow, remember to reply to my messages!" Zheng Dandan waved at Lu Sheng and was dragged into the room by Lin Zishan.
Lu Sheng walked into his room, and the first thing he did was to turn off his mobile phone.
"I’ll enter the mountain tomorrow, find a chance to break away from the group, and then slowly find the location of the silver mine …" Lu Sheng thought, then took out another Marrow Nourishing Pill and swallowed it, and then began to cultivate the Stellar Body Refining Technique.
He would enter the dream world after the Stellar Body Refining Technique had drained his last bit of strength.
It was a quiet night.
The next morning, the tour guide knocked on the door of each room and asked everyone to get up. Half an hour later, they would gather downstairs.
After breakfast, the members of the Three Days and Two Nights tour group gathered at the entrance of the dormitory.
The young tour guide was holding a yellow loudspeaker in his hand, telling them all kinds of precautions before entering the mountain.
"… Everyone, please be sure to follow my footsteps and don't fall behind. Getting lost in the mountains is a very dangerous …"
Lu Sheng stood in the crowd, silently listening to the young tour guide's nonsense. Beside him, Zheng Dandan stared at him with wide eyes.
"Lu Sheng, did you not sleep well last night?"
Lu Sheng's face twitched slightly, and he nodded. "Yes, I had a nightmare."
"Oh." Zheng Dandan suddenly understood. "No wonder you don't look so good."
Lu Sheng really did not "sleep" well last night.
To be precise, he had "died" last night.
Just yesterday, Lu Sheng shed his first drop of blood in the dream world; his maiden death.
Now that he recalled last night's experience, Lu Sheng's heart was still a little traumatized.
Comprehending the Master Skill "Ten Suns, One Sky" and forming the Embryonic Master Will caused Lu Sheng's self-confidence to swell.
Therefore, last night, he went to find the second Master-level zombie. This zombie was located two streets next to where Shi Shengning was found.
It was a female Master.
Wearing a Master Battle Armor similar to Shi Shengning's, holding a broken spear weapon, her figure was well-proportioned and perfect, just like the Valkyrie in ancient myths.
But different from Shi Shengning. The Valkyrie had retained a little too much of her battle instincts.
Lu Sheng was discovered when he was within a hundred meters of the Valkyrie Master.
Then, Lu Sheng lost sight of the other party.
When he thought of releasing his spiritual power, he finally sensed the other party's figure … But at this time, the Valkyrie Master was already just five meters in front of him.
In an instant, Lu Sheng felt countless red exclamation marks light up around him, accompanied by rapid and harsh alarms.
"Danger! Danger! Danger! …"
Before Lu Sheng could react, he was directly killed by the Valkyrie Master's spear.
Before "dying", Lu Sheng saw … A dazzling and majestic river of ice!
Hiss~
Too powerful.
Lu Sheng was deeply shocked.
All along, Lu Sheng's exploration in the dream space had been smooth.
The several times he entered "high-level maps", he could rely on his calmness and wit to play with those stupid "high-level monsters" in the palm of his hand.
So much so that he didn't realize that he was subconsciously becoming complacent. Killing Shi Shengning, the Master Level zombie, and obtaining Shi Shengning's martial arts treasures, made this arrogance peak.
Then … He finally failed.
The consequence of the failure was that Lu Sheng was thrust out from the dream world. As if suddenly waking up from a nightmare, he was flustered and had a splitting headache.
He could no longer enter the dream world in the second half of the night.
The dream world seemed to have entered a cooldown. This cooldown time would slowly shorten as Lu Sheng's spiritual power recovered.
"The dream world is not the lost paradise I thought it was. On the wasteland after the fall of civilization, only blood and fire can create a true savior …" Lu Sheng finally understood.
His state of mind returned to its initial calmness, and the negative effects brought about by the extreme arrogance of his strength over the past three months vanished at this moment.
He was still that frail young man who walked in the wilderness, trembling as if he was treading on thin ice, trying to find a ray of light in the boundless black fog.
"If I hadn't let my guard down, I might have been able to contend with that Master Martial Goddess with my Mastery Realm Fist Technique and Master Skill at full strength …" Lu Sheng analyzed the situation.
There was no doubt that the Master Valkyrie was powerful, and her battle instincts far exceeded Shi Shengning's.
She should be a Master who was stronger than Shi Shengning. She might even be a Level 8 Grandmaster.
Lu Sheng recalled the dazzling ice river that followed the spear. Perhaps it was the embodiment of the Grandmaster's Grandmaster Will and Grandmaster Skill.
If he could get it …
"It's too early to think about this. Let's wait until I'm stronger …" Lu Sheng shook his head in self-mockery and dismissed the idea. Lu Sheng's face was a little pale because of the shock of his death in the dream world.
Zheng Dandan's heart ached, and she kept asking about his well-being. Nannan's family also came over to show their concern.
"Why not go back today? Rest well and go tomorrow …" Zheng Dandan advised Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng wanted to say that he was fine and that it wouldn't delay him entering the mountain. But on second thought, he could use this opportunity to leave the group and enter the mountain alone.
"Okay!"
After saying that, Lu Sheng went to explain the situation to the tour guide.
The tour guide was easy to talk to. She told Lu Sheng to rest well, and then a group of aunties urged her to lead the group out.
"Sigh, I should have stayed to take care of Lu Sheng …" Zheng Dandan looked back thrice with every step, sighing.
"Then why didn't you stay back …" Lin Zishan glanced at her.
Zheng Dandan was a little embarrassed. "After all, we're not boyfriend and girlfriend yet. If I stayed … it would be too unreserved. And how would I take care of him? I can't enter Lu Sheng's room …"
As Zheng Dandan spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and her fair and pretty face turned red.
Lin Zishan rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, "Big sister, you know the word ‘reserved'? I see different words written on your face!"
"What words?"
"Spring feelings!*"
[*it means when someone is in love or has amorous feelings. While here it alludes to her being in love.]Zheng Dandan snorted and turned her head away, ignoring Lin Zishan.
