Counterattack System appeared when I m already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 488: Chapter 487: The Source Lies With Me

Jiang Li woke up leisurely, stretching lazily, and found Dream Pure smiling softly at him.

Recently, Dream Pure had been a Guest Elder at the Food Color Dream Sect.

“Did the Emperor sleep well? What kind of dream did you have?”

Yawning, Jiang Li replied: “I dreamt that many beautiful women admired another version of me, including you.”

“…It’s unexpected that the Emperor has such desires. Wait, did you meet Emperor Chu in your dream?”

Dream Pure assumed that Jiang Li yearned for a harem in his heart, but rationality told her this was quite illogical.

“No, it was a different person this time.” Jiang Li briefly described his encounter with the other Jiang Li.

Dream Pure analyzed: “In that case, when you and the other person enter the dream at the same time, you can break the boundaries of the parallel world and meet within the dream.”

Jiang Li added: “Maybe there is another prerequisite, that both of us are at the Mahayana Realm.”

“So you found me because you encountered Old Bai?”

Dream Pure nodded: “Somebody said they were unsatisfied with the dreams being constructed and needed my personal intervention. When I took a look, I realized that it was Sect Master Bai Hongtu. And that’s how I found out that both you and Pure Heart, the Holy Maiden, also came to Food Color Dream Sect.”

“Where are the Holy Maiden and Old Bai?”

“The Holy Maiden said she was very satisfied and returned to Red Dust Pure Land first. Sect Master Bai Hongtu is still immersed in the dream I wove for him.”

“Let’s go and check it out.”

Standing beside Bai Hongtu, who was in a deep sleep, Jiang Li asked, “What’s this guy dreaming about?”

“He is dreaming about becoming The 72nd Human Emperor and selecting candidates for the Human Emperor.”

“That seems quite normal.” Jiang Li was pleasantly surprised.

“You are among the candidates for the Human Emperor in his dream.”

“…Damn, change the content of the dream.”

“No problem.” Dream Pure was happy to help.

After the dream was altered, Bai Hongtu’s tranquil expression gradually twisted, he was sweating profusely and suddenly sat up cursing.

“Why am I, this Emperor, being pinned down and beaten by Jiang Li, the candidate for Human Emperor in my dream?”

Jiang Li whispered: “Because I am right next to you.”

Hearing Jiang Li speak, Bai Hongtu turned his head in surprise, looking at Jiang Li with his eyes wide open, he was so scared that he clung to his blanket, backed up against the wall, trembling.

This is bad, Jiang Li knows that I’m keen on defeating him…wait, did he know all along?

Bai Hongtu felt a brief moment of panic, then realized that he had panicked for nothing.

“What do the Emperor and Bai Sect Master need from me?” Dream Pure didn’t think she was that important to warrant being sought after by both of them.

“The thing is, some Dream Path cultivators are offering custom dreams that are about… love, with me being the male lead and the female lead being undetermined. I want to find a way to monitor these dreams and filter out those who use me in lustful dreams.”

Dream Pure was a little embarrassed: “You mean this? This might also be something I started.”

“What?”

Dream Pure explained: “As you know, to cultivate the Dream Path, one must increase the authenticity of the dream realm. I can easily create any ordinary scene, it’s not challenging. Even creating the entire Nine Provinces Continent in the dream is just a matter of spending some time, it’s not difficult.”

“When I was contemplating how to advance to the next stage of Dream Path cultivation, it occurred to me, why not create you in the dream.”

“Especially after witnessing your battle with Emperor Chu in the dream realm, I realized that your strength had no boundaries. The most unimaginable thing is the best method to practice the Dream Path. By imagining you in the dream realm, my Dream Path cultivation has advanced to the next level.”

“Coincidentally, I wanted to stay in Xian’an City for a while, so I became a Guest Elder of the Food Color Dream Sect. The people from this sect asked me for guidance on how to cultivate the Dream Path, so I demonstrated to them the method of creating you in the dream realm.”

“In the dream, to show how authentic you are in my creation, I had you pin down the hands of the Sect Master of Food Color Dream Sect and push her against the wall. I guess because of your close distance, the Sect Master of Food Color Dream Sect could feel your breath, her face turned red and her body went limp…”

“That’s enough, you don’t have to describe that process in too much detail.” Jiang Li hurriedly interrupted.

Dream Pure skipped over the rest regretfully and directly stated the conclusion: “It just so happened that the Food Color Dream Sect was considering a new way to make money at the time. They got inspiration and a business opportunity from me, using you as love dream material to start making money. After the other Dream Path cultivators learned about this, they followed suit and started doing the same. I guess every Dream Path cultivator has made money off you.”

“After all, your market is huge. Even a brush you’ve used can sell for a sky-high price, not to mention a dream featuring you. Many female cultivators want to have that kind of dream, resulting in the Dream Path cultivators not being able to meet the demand.”

Finding this disturbing, Jiang Li realized this gray market was even more exaggerated than he had imagined: “Is there any way to stop this?”

After thinking for a moment, Dream Pure felt she was responsible for this and should help Jiang Li solve the problem, “Yes, there is a way. I can use Dream Path to filter out all the dreams that target you for love dreams. However, I need a huge array that covers the entire Nine Provinces.”

Jiang Li looked at Bai Hongtu for his opinion. Bai Hongtu nodded: “That won’t be a problem. She can use the Nine Provinces Spirit Plant Array to practice Dream Path.”

The Nine Provinces Spirit Plant Array is very malleable. Not only can it be used to concentrate power and withstand Heavenly Demons, but with some slight modifications, it can also be used to filter dreams like Dream Pure wants. In addition to that, it can also have more functions such as monitoring the distribution of spiritual energy, population density and the concentration of cultivators.

“That should be fine then.” Dream Pure was incredibly confident in her Dream Path.

This day, was a day of agony for the countless female cultivators. They had lost the chance to enjoy Jiang Li alone; many were even kicked out of their sweet dreams by Dream Pure.

The female cultivators wanted to confront the Dream Path cultivators, but upon comparing their experiences, they realized that it was not a service problem with the Dream Path cultivators, but that all love dreams involving Jiang Li had been banned.

“Damn, I relied on this love dream every night, what am I going to do now?”

“Me too, me too, practicing during the day is so tough; I should be allowed to enjoy myself at night.”

“Have you guys noticed? Not all dreams involving Emperor Jiang are banned, dreams where he is dressed are still allowed.”

“What’s the point of a dream where he is dressed?”

“We can have dreams where we’re in a romantic relationship with Emperor Jiang.”

“That’s a good idea.”

…

Just as he was leaving the Food Color Dream Sect, the Emperor’s Seal on Jiang Li’s forehead began to flicker.

“Something happened?” Bai Hongtu was not familiar with the Emperor’s Seal; he had only had the Emperor Candidate Seal before.

“Yes, both Luo Ying and Luo Zhu have reached the Nascent Soul Stage. I’m rather fond of these siblings.”

Having met the minimum cultivation requirement for Emperor candidates, Luo Ying and Luo Zhu became potential candidates for the position of the Human Emperor.

“That’s good, then let’s proceed with selecting the Human Emperor candidate.”

To prove the fairness of the selection for the Human Emperor candidates, Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu sought out Yu Yin. In front of both of them, they randomly selected a topic from those provided by Commander Liu.
