Chapter 1433: Red Dust Dream

The two quickly left and went to the main hall.
Inside the hall, the atmosphere was extremely ominous. Wang Clan Master and the Temple Lord and Mistress were all frowning.
There was another wizard in the hall. It was the old man in linen clothes that had appeared at the Son-In-Law Recruitment for the Greatest Saint Lady.
He saw Su Yu coming and nodded his head in acknowledgment. In the tense atmosphere of the room, he hadn’t forgotten his manners.
The Wang Clan Master and the Temple Lord and Mistress were both in deep contemplation and had no time to bother about Su Yu.
“This is not the way to proceed! We don’t understand the situation at Fan Capital and, to be frank, we don’t understand the enemy agenda. We will support Fan Capital but we are all in danger,” the Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple could not hide her fear.
“What else can we do?” the Lord of the Holy Saint Temple retorted. The three scout teams we dispatched have disappeared and we didn’t find their bodies. We sent more to search for them but it was like mud cows entering the sea. After five days, there is no news from them either!”
“No matter what, you must act now, otherwise you will do nothing and die! It’s the only way forward!” Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple said firmly.
She sighed and shook her head. With the demise of the nine scouts, even if the three supreme masters acted in person, they would not be able to reap many benefits.
The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple had no other ideas and just kept sighing.
The Wang Clan Master was silent for a long time. “Our top priority is not the life and death of the scouts, but to resolve the situation at Fan Capital! We must find a way to get through the enemy blockade and learn what happened at Fan Capital!”
He paused in thought for a moment. “I have a way but I don’t know if you will agree!”
The Temple Lord and Mistress became alert and said in unison, “Please say it quickly.”
The Wang Clan Master looked at the old man in linen clothes with a touch of anxiety and said, “My method may be contrary to the rules of the Wizard Tribe. However, the situation at hand is grave and I hope that Lord Ling Wu will say a few good words to the leader.”
The old man in linen clothes nodded thoughtfully, “I am not a pedantic person. I was sent by the leader to supervise the war effort, and naturally, he appreciates that not all things can be done according to the rules.”
On hearing this, the Wang Clan Master felt somewhat relieved, and produced four bottles of blood-red pills, all of which contained the Power of Red Dust!
As soon as the pills appeared, everyone’s face changed, but there was no immediate descent.
“These are made from the Power of Red Dust extracted by my ancestors from the Red Dust Forbidden Lands. It is called the Red Dust Dream. After swallowing it, one can enter dreamland,” the Wang Clan Master claimed.
The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple frowned. “Dream? What has it got to do with the situation right now?”
The Wang Clan Master waved his hand and said, “Please wait until I have finished speaking. It is not my dream, but the dream of others!”
Not knowing how to respond, everyone just frowned. Entering the dreams of others sounded a little unlikely, but it was plausible since this thing originated from the Red Dust Forbidden Lands.
“If the devourer can enter the dream of any creature in Fan Capital, he will be able to talk to them in the dream to understand what is going on down there.”
After hearing these words, everyone’s eyes lit up. If this worked, this would be an excellent way to gain more information.
The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple pondered for a while and said, “Besides entering a person’s dream, what are the disadvantages? You might as well explain it all to us.”
The Wang Clan Master smiled softly and said, “Truth be said, there is nothing wrong with it, except that one’s soul may be put under strain. Other than that there is no negative impact and there are many benefits! After swallowing the pill, the Power of Red Dust will be in one’s body. The person with the Power of Red Dust gains a pair of red dust eyes and can see things that cannot be seen by the naked eye. However, this can only be used once.”
The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple was stunned for a moment and said, “What is the point of seeing through the line of red dust?”
“Point?” said the Wang Clan Master. “If you want to find someone and you don’t know where they are, the red dust line can easily point you in their direction! Long ago, when the Empire of Darkness launched a massive attack on the Wizard Tribe, they snatched two Red Dust Dreams and got two pairs of red dust eyes! Guess what they used the red dust line to find?”
The Empire of Darkness? The faces of all the people present suddenly looked awkward as they thought about it.
The Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple and the Lord of the Holy Saint Temple seemed to have had the same thought and said in unison, “The remains of the Ice and Fire Divine Warrior?”
“Exactly!” the Wang Clan Master exclaimed. “The remains of the Ice and Fire Divine Warrior have disappeared for hundreds of millions of years. Even the descendants of the Ice and Fire Royal Family do not know the specific location of the remains. Yet the Empire of Darkness knew where to go, precisely because they used this!”
On hearing these words, everyone’s heart surged with excitement!
So many superpowers had fallen since ancient times. Wouldn’t it be easy to find their remains if you had the red dust eyes?
“To be honest, if it were not for this battle, I would never even consider it! After all, the refining methods have been lost, and only four of them are left in this world!” the Wang Clan Master said with a sense of pity.
Staring at the four jade bottles in his palm, all eyes were lit with excitement.
Even Su Yu started breathing heavily.
He had wanted to find someone for a very, very long time, but that person seemed to have disappeared from the world, whether it was Jiuzhou, Star River, the Ancient God realm, or the huge Lost Nation.
He had not seen that person again, nor got any news of them, and had never even heard their name.
Often, he had wondered if that person had fallen into the lands of heaven and earth.
He pined for that person, was worried about that person and the thought of them often woke him up at night.
That person was, Xia Jingyu!
Since their separation on the Jiuzhou mainland, Xia Jingyu seemed to have vanished. Before leaving, she had asked Xian’er to resolve Su Yu’s destiny.
Since then, there had been no trace of her.
Where was she? Why hadn’t she left any trace? It was almost as if she had never existed.
Su Yu wondered if the Red Dust line between them would still be there?
Was it mere infatuation or was it, true love? Su Yu already knew the answer. Sadly, her departure had not given Su Yu the chance to tell her.
Remembering all this made Su Yu’s mind begin to tremble.
But the sight of the four fiery red jade bottles filled Su Yu with hope!
He needed to get his hands on one, to try and see where Xia Jingyu was!
How was she? Was she OK?
Back in the room, some of them were still thinking rationally.
“If the red dust line really has extraordinary power, why would the Wang clan keep it a secret until now?” Ling Wu said excitedly.
Everyone felt awkward upon hearing this. Indeed, since the Wang clan had this thing, they could have used it to find the remains of a great number of powerful creatures. Perhaps they might even have discovered important knowledge that had been lost.
The Wang Clan Master smiled bitterly and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to, but that I can’t! The Wang Clan cannot take this thing!”
“Why?” Ling Wu asked.
The Wang Clan Master sighed, “When the ancestors were collecting the Power of Asura at the entrance of the Asura Forbidden Lands, they encountered a woman. She claimed to be a Saint of Red Dust and was very powerful. Although the ancestors quickly tried to defend themselves, they were wounded, and their blood was invaded by the power of red dust. ”
On hearing this, Su Yu’s heart started beating a little faster.
“The descendants of those ancestors now carry a trace of red dust in their blood, and after so many generations, it is the Chu family that has inherited the power.”
The Chu clan intermarried with each other in the past. If the time span was long enough, the offspring would most likely share this bloodline.
“When eventually our ancestor succeeded in refining it, he took it himself. He successfully entered the dreams of others, but the power of red dust in the bloodline attracted the Red Dust Girl to the dream! She controlled the ancestors through dreams. Only when he sacrificed half of his soul was he then able to regain control of it.”
“Now, do you understand why we can’t take the Red Dust Dream?”
As long as there was the power of red dust in their blood, the terrible Red Dust Girl would inevitably be summoned to the dream.
“So, the Red Dust Dream remains to this day, and now it is proving to be useful.” The Wang Clan Master held four red dust dreams out. “Who is prepared to take this thing, I will gladly give it to you! However, not everyone is qualified!” The Wang Clan Master said.
Everyone’s spirit tightened. “Is there any requirement for taking this thing?”
The Wang Clan Master nodded. “Yes! The Red Dust Dream is made of red dust’s power, and it would be difficult for anyone who swallows it to utilize its powers if he does not have a red dust heart.”
After hearing this, many people became discouraged.
For cultivators, concentration could help bring them one step further, so there were countless people who had already abandoned their red dust heart.
The longer their cultivation, the more indifferent they would be to the power of red dust.
Many of the people present had lived for hundreds of years. They were completely indifferent to red dust, let alone have a red dust heart.
“Then, let’s find about twenty people in their early twenties,” The Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple said curiously. “That isn’t too difficult, is it?”
The Wang Clan Master gently shook his head. “If only it were so easy, stepping into other people’s dreams is essentially the role of the soul, so in addition to a red dust heart, the person also needs soul power that is strong enough.”
“How strong?”
“A strength at least equivalent to yours and mine,” The Wang Clan Master said.
Those who were present were all startled. In other words, they needed to be young, but their soul strength must have reached at least the Level Three Realm.
Such people did exist, but they were few and far between.
The people quickly examined the young people present, Su Yu, Xueying, Wang Qingchen, and Cai Lin.
Wang Qingchen had the power of red dust and should not take the Red Dust Dream.
Su Yu and Cai Lin had never reached the Level Three Realm, and their souls were most definitely not strong enough.
Three people were left!
“The three people that I brought from the temple can fill the vacancies,” the Lord of the Holy Saint Temple said. Behind him stood three young men who were highly educated and well taught.
They appeared to be different from Zhao Tianyin in age, and they were all candidates who had been defeated by Zhao Tianyin in the contest for the position of the Holy Saint.
Everyone’s brows furrowed. “The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple had a big appetite. Did he really want to claim all three of the opportunities?” they said.
Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple said, “I also have three good candidates.”
The Lord of the Holy Saint Temple narrowed his eyes, and their gaze collided in mid-air, creating sparks.
“We have the manpower, but the places are limited. It would be better to test the six people to find out who is the most suitable. What do you think?” said the Wang Clan Master not wishing to offend either of the two temples.
Of course, no one had any objection.
The Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple said, “We shall abide by the decision of the Wang Clan Master.”
The Wang Clan Master immediately produced six bronze-colored rulers with nine scores on them.
“This is the ruler specially made by the ancestor at that time. It can detect the degree of suitability between the user and the Red Dust Dream. The better the fit, the more prominent the effect will be upon taking this pill.”
The Wang Clan Master handed the bronze rulers to the six of them, saying, “Recall the deepest feelings in your life. The soul fluctuations generated will be sensed by the measure, and the scratches on its surface will respond accordingly. The higher the number of scores that have changed, the more suitable you will be. ”
“So far, the highest record is the ancestor himself, who reached eight scores. As long as you reach three scores, it means that you are suitable for the Red Dust Dream.”
After the brief introduction, the Wang Clan Master said, “Without further delay, let us commence!”
But at that moment, a figure walked out from the crowd on the right, saying, “Wang Clan Master, can I too have a try?
