Chapter 173: Unconventional Disease Eradication

Chapter 173: Unconventional Disease Eradication

The ailment lies within the Dreamland.

To tackle the "Blood Thread Disease" afflicting the Rainbow Flowers, one must enter the Dreamland in spiritual form and locate the source of the anomaly to resolve it.

Luckily, Hua Mi could freely traverse the Dreamland.

Equally fortunate, Hua Mi's mental prowess was remarkably potentfive to six times that of an average person, making navigating the Dreamland a seamless experience.

"Let's go."

Time was of the essence. Hua Mi ingested the nectar of the Moon Slumber Flower, swiftly slipping into a slumber state.

Meanwhile, Maoqiu tapped into the talents of the Nightmare Clan, guiding Hua Mi's spirit into the Dreamland.

It felt akin to a simple light nap.

Upon regaining consciousness, he found himself back in that misty space from before.

However, it felt different from the previous serene atmosphere.

This time, the mist seemed wildly chaotic, swirling without rhyme or reason.

If the last time was a tranquil dream, this time was an unsettling nightmare.

As Maoqiu mentioned, the Dreamland was influenced by the chaotic elements from reality, morphing into its current state.

The Dreamland wasn't a singular entity but rather divided into separate regions, resembling fragmented worlds.

The area they currently occupied roughly corresponded to the Black Forest region in reality.

Expanding his mental prowess, Hua Mi sensed amidst the chaotic mist numerous spirits, varying in strength, aimlessly wandering within.

Some resembled birds or beasts, others humans.

Their forms were diverse.

Yet, all were shadowy figures exuding an eerie blood-hued glow.

Both the shadows and the bloody radiance inherently instilled a sense of solemnity and unease.

As Maoqiu explained, these were the "shadows" generated collectively by the creatures in this region of reality.

During the chaos, denizens of reality unavoidably succumbed to environmental influences, spawning restless and agitated emotions.

These emotional energies accumulated, projecting into the Dreamland, giving birth to these shadowy creatures.

With more shadows, they, in turn, affected the dreams within the area (not synonymous with the Dreamland, but rather providing the soil for dreams).

Thus, it was now certainthe source of the "Blood Thread Disease" was these shadows.

These shadows were akin to pathogens.

The solution was straightforwardcombatting and exterminating these shadow creatures.

In the real world, there were numerous methods to treat plant diseases and pestswatering, fertilizing, pesticides...

Hua Mi had never heard of combat as a means to address ailments in flora.

Quite unconventional.

"For brewing this batch of Rainbow Flower Honey, it was really quite the ordeal."

Hua Mi couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps it'd be better to seek nectar sources from the main world in the future.

"By the way, this is your turf, isn't it," Hua Mi glanced at the Nightmare beside him, implying, "Do you want to show off?"

"I'm not good at fighting, gu!" Maoqiu bounced on the spot like a ball, eyes resolute. "But rest assured, I'll support you from behind and cheer for you, gu!"

"...So, you're basically a fish that only knows how to say 'awesome.'"

It was quite a contrast to its imposing name "Nightmare."

"Anyway, everything has its pros and cons. Let's consider this a special mental training... feels more effective than controlling bees."

He could distinctly sense that the spiritual creatures here lacked considerable strength.

With his current level of mental prowess, they were no more than small fry.

Handling them shouldn't be too difficult.

The main challenge was their numbers.

This would test his endurance.

Hua Mi prepared for a prolonged battle, raising his right hand.

The surrounding mist responded, swirling and converging towards his palm.

Eventually forming an illusory spear.

Why a spear?

No specific reason.

It just looked cool.

And was easier to manifest.

As a spear-wielding warrior, Hua Mi charged towards the nearest shadow, spurred on by Maoqiu's encouragement!

...

Hua Mi dispatched the shadows with gusto.

While addressing the Rainbow Glass Flower's malady, he indeed felt his mental prowess growing stronger.

One by one, the shadows dissipated under his spear.

Encountering hardly any substantial resistance, it was as simple as cutting through butter.

"Phew!"

Hua Mi tossed the spear in his hand.

The spear pierced through a bird-shaped shadow.

Accompanied by a sharp screech.

Both the bird-shaped shadow and the spear formed from mist dissipated simultaneously.

Nearly done.

Only one shadow remained in this area.

It was somewhat unique.

Hua Mi noticed it was a fusion of the last few shadows, forming a more robust entity.

From this, it was evident that these shadows possessed a certain level of intelligence.

Sensing they were outmatched, they resorted to group tactics.

However, this wouldn't change the outcome.

With Hua Mi's mental prowess five times that of an average person, it presented an overwhelming advantage against these small fry.

Even though the previous battles had consumed a fair amount of mental energy, what remained was ample to deal with this one.

This amalgamated shadow adopted a humanoid form, quite large, standing over three meters tall, with a robust physique resembling a tiger.

Two red glows emerged on its face, serving as eyes.

Intimidating at first glance.

Yet, it was all bark and no bite.

It lunged at Hua Mi, launching an offensive.

Hua Mi didn't dodge.

Since his mental prowess surpassed the adversary's, there was no need for finesse.

Directly confronting it.

A pure power showdown!

Hua Mi charged forward, his fist enveloped in mist, exploding outward like a cannonball.

Bang

A muffled impact.

Two spiritual entities collided, generating a shockwave rapidly expanding in all directions, momentarily dispersing the surrounding mist, creating a small vacuum.

"Ugh"

The shadow before Hua Mi emitted a plaintive moan.

Starting to disintegrate from the point of impact.

It tore apart like paper into countless pieces.

Endless division until ultimately dissipating.

Surveying the surroundings, Hua Mi confirmed, "All cleared. Should solve the Rainbow Flower's ailment now..."

Expanding his mental prowess, he no longer sensed the presence of shadows.

In truth, as Maoqiu had mentioned, it wasn't necessary to clear them all.

Simply reducing their numbers to a certain extent, reaching a critical threshold, would cease their impact on reality.

However, Hua Mi thought since they were already here, might as well finish the job thoroughly.

It was a simple task.

The regeneration of shadows would take time.

The cleaner the slate, the longer they could secure for growth and development.

Clearing them all would ensure no further issues with shadows until the chaos period ended.

No need for a return trip.

"Time to head back."

"Got it, gu!"

Hua Mi hurried back to check on the Rainbow Flowers' condition.

Though they had resolved the Dreamland shadows, the real-world situation remained uncertain.

Maoqiu hopped beside Hua Mi.

Similar to last time, Hua Mi felt himself descending within the mist.

A sense of weightlessness...
