Several months passed in a flash.

Fang Yuan formed a small alliance half-willingly the previous time Three Suns Daoist came to visit him.

Many dream masters in the 4th Tier of the Illusionary Divine Stage from the sects in the Cloud Region gathered one after another in a short span of few days to aid each other.

Thanks to them, Fang Yuan was able to obtain several pieces of classified information. As such, he knew that there were conflicts in all parts of the world as 5 Grand Organisations demonstrated their prowess with provocative acts. The Da Qian Royal Family had started to pull back and retaliate. The whole Cultivation World was in disarray.

"Judging from the current situation, a majority of the martial artists and spiritual knights are siding with Da Qian...Needless to say, the dream masters have always been arrogant and it is no surprise that they have offended almost everyone?"

Fang Yuan looked at the report and was speechless.

However, in this world, an individual could possess the power to overwhelm everything. The dream masters possessed remarkable abilities. Even if all the Wu Zongs and the spiritual knights side with the royal family, it would only cause a little additional trouble as the dream masters would have to kill more people.

"Truth be told...it is not the case where the dream masters do not want to integrate and mingle with the Wu Zongs and spiritual knights. However, they could only be servants here at best...over at Da Qian, they would be able to reap all sorts of benefits... After all, it is a people dao Kingdom. There are some resources which we are unable to give up so easily..."

He pondered, "The royal family gathered the power of the masses and drew out the power that could be drawn out. It is a pity that it would not be able to block the power of the 5 Grand Organisations if the organisations were to wholeheartedly combine their power..."

The war-torn Cultivation World was no new or miraculous experience for Fang Yuan.

Of course, the most direct observation was that the missions in the different paradises became increasingly serious. These missions were dispatched by the alliance and were not meant to go against the Cultivation World. Not even Zhou Tian could change the mission.

Meng Tian and Meng Guang grumbled incessantly that even if they were to deploy their land to its full capabilities, they would only manage to hold out for a year.

However, Fang Yuan had made some plans. Now that peace and quiet were hard to come by, it was only natural for him to make use of his resources for as long as possible. The most crucial point was to increase his level of cultivation!

So what if the world is in turmoil and the 5 Grand Organisations would not combine their power? Fang Yuan still had the confidence to overcome them!

"Now that there is time, it is better to cultivate. If not, there might not be another chance once the war breaks out and I would even miss out countless of opportunities!"

There were both dangers and opportunities when the world was in chaos.

With the world in chaos, Fang Yuan naturally chose to undergo cultivation. It would be the perfect opportunity to strike when things quieten down next time!

Without the need for many words, Fang Yuan arrived at a side palace hall.

"Rumble! Rumble!"

The green water rolled around ceaselessly and bubbled within the pond, emitting a black aura.

"Hiss hiss!"

The black aura took on the shapes of centipedes, scorpions, venomous snakes of the 5 poison types. It was indeed formidable and had the ability to erode souls and melt bones!

"The Hundred Poison Golden Body is a technique which specifically trains the physical body. With the scarce resources from the mainland, I managed to reach the 1st Refining Stage. However, Da Qian has plenty of resources and as such, I have a great room for improvement ...Furthermore, I am a dream master. Things will be different with the aid of the Dream Realm!"

The sect which inherited this Hundred Poison Golden Body Technique was but a small martial arts sect. The user had to traverse the world in search of suitable poisonous objects. As such, it was very challenging.

However, Fang Yuan was different!

As a dream master, with sufficient contribution points or resources, it was only a matter of time before he would be able to procure ancient or precious poisons given the opportunities to trade within the Dream Realm. The poisons obtained from the trade were enough to reach the pinnacle of this technique!

"Since the ancient time, trading life in exchange for cultivation was the only right way!"

Fang Yuan jumped into the pond with a splash, his body releasing a golden light. The raging poisonous fog was nothing but a gentle breeze to him. He spread his arms and leaned against the side of the pond as if he was taking having a soak in a hot spring. His face revealed a look of enjoyment. "There is a school of thought among the dream masters to concentrate on training up their magical energy and form their Yin Spirit. Their bodies are but shells which could easily be replaced and in the end, they will cultivate to reach the level of ghost and deities. However, I do not subscribe to that school of thought!"

"M...Master, your... soup!"

After a moment, Fang Yuan clapped his hands as Meng Tian and Meng Guang entered the room with a look of nervousness. Even though they had already taken the pill to counter the poison, they were still deathly pale as they looked at the Five Poison Fog. ’Be obedient...if we inhale even a tiny bit of this poisonous fog, I am afraid that we would immediately be poisoned to death and our flesh will melt, revealing our bones...’

They held their breath as they looked at Fang Yuan, who appeared to be serene and enjoying as if he was taking a soak in a hot spring. "This is the soup made from Intestine-breaking Grass and every blade is worth 500 years. There is also the Heart-eroding Flower Pulp with a 1000-year poisonous property which is sufficient to poison a water dragon to its death!"

"Hmmmm, put down the items and leave!"

Fang Yuan waved them away when he saw the terrified expressions on both their faces. He reached for the bowl of soup without seeming to mind and drank it all in 1 gulp. "I should train my physique and my organs. I cannot afford to be careless..."

He took the Heart-eroding Flower Pulp and ate it like an apple.

"Understood!"

Meng Tian and Meng Guang quickly retreated as though they had received a pardon and walked a great distance before they finally let go of their breath when they saw the clear sky. One would have the misconception that they had climbed back out from the gates of Hell.

’Master’s technique is indeed impressive...’

...

"They are indeed mediocre..."

Within the poisonous pool, Fang Yuan shook his head and could not be bothered. After he ate his food, he shut his eyes, as though he was taking a nap, as his spiritual will entered the Dream Realm.

"Friend! Were you satisfied with the Five Poisons Flower you bought previously? I treat everyone fairly. Find me regardless of who you want to poison..."

"My friend, do you still have Yellow Grain Rice? I am willing to pay a high price for it, regardless if it is spiritual ingredients, techniques or information, whatever you ask for..."

"Senior, I have 2 top-grade cauldrons, both of which are of outstanding quality. How about I trade them for 200 catties of Yellow Grain Rice?"

...

Once he entered the Dream World, the messages on the inscription plate started to flash.

"It seems like the Yellow Grain Rice is in high demand!"

Fang Yuan stroked his chin and was very pleased. "Yellow Grain Rice was originally a top-grade resource for the dream masters. With then big war, the future consumption would be huge. As an item that can preserve lives, it would never be enough..."

Even an alchemy pill, unless it is of the highest grade, could not be used as a staple. However, the Yellow Grain Rice could be consumed as a staple.

He would naturally have to pay the price in order to collect all sorts of precious poisonous objects. As he had a use for his contribution points, he decided to put up a batch of Yellow Grain Rice instead as it would fetch the highest price for its quality.

He did not expect that the market price for the Yellow Grain Rice would be so good.

"It is not considered a feat for a dream master to produce Yellow Grain Rice. However, the crucial part would be to hide the proportion of resources needed to produce the Yellow Grain Rice as well as the type of spiritual seeds used...By keeping these 2 secrets close to me, given my current status, I would be able to curb the small talks about it."

Fang Yuan scanned the objects available a few times but was unable to find what he wanted. He was too lazy to reply the sellers and headed to the stone tablets to search for the ingredients he required as well as the locations of several strange poisons.

With a look, he discovered a stalk of ’Jade Flame Gold Flower’ which was a required poison to reach the 10th Refining Stage. He was joyous as he contacted the seller. "How much for the Jade Flame Gold Flower?"

"500 contribution points!"

The other party had a haughty expression.

"I will use the Yellow Grain Rice to replace the contribution points!"

"Ah...where are you, I will come over immediately for the deal!"

In a flash of fiery light, a red shadow condensed as the other party rushed forward and asked. "You have Yellow Grain Rice? My Jade Flame Gold Flower is of the top grade and there is only 1 portion. I will trade it for 400 catties of Yellow Grain Rice..."

One would sneer if one were to witness such a change in attitude. However, Fang Yuan had his fair share of experience recently.

Truth be told, after witnessing the change in attitude, Fang Yuan felt somewhat sorrowful.

Those lower-levelled dream masters were like duckweed which could only drift with the wind and flow with the waves.

After completing the transaction, he bade farewell to the seller and contacted the other dream masters he was familiar with.

Liu Mengmei was extremely busy. As the main force of the offense, the Divine Lotus Cult and the Evil Divine Sect managed to accomplish their tasks well. Even though she was a reserve, she had no choice but to take part in the battle to exterminate the enemies.

On the contrary, the sisters of the Ye Family revealed their intentions to draw closer to Fang Yuan. They appeared regretful especially after Fang Yuan rose to the 4th Tier. Afterall, with the incoming war, it would be better to maintain a close relationship with someone of power. However, Fang Yuan had set his mind to further his cultivation and could not be bothered with the two of them. He merely contacted them and exchanged reports.

"Beautiful ladies are the cause of trouble, especially these two sisters who would inherit the Ye family’s name and their grudges. Only a fool will go for them..."

Fang Yuan arrived at the Realm Alliance Mountains and did not want to be bothered by the pair of sisters.

"Only a person favoured by the heavens and destined to play the lead role would purposely take on and solve the problems, at the same time offending many highly skilled experts in the process before overcoming them in the end. I would save myself the trouble and avoid this game..."

The missions on the Realm Alliance stone tablet were able to fetch a higher price compared to the common regions. The ingredients available were more valuable as well. Fang Yuan was reserved as he made his payment in contribution points in exchange for a few types of poison before he retreated to a side to rest and ponder.

"After breaking through to the 4th tier, I have already exhausted the benefits from the water realm. As for the martial arts and the Golden Body, I can only train step-by-step every day. It would be even more difficult to achieve a breakthrough in the Illusionary Divine Stage. In order to progress rapidly, I must take the shortcut!"

Where is the shortcut? The shortcut is in the other realms!

"I have only experienced 2 realms till now. However, the heavens and earth in the water realm hate me. I will receive heaven’s tribulations the moment I set foot there. It is dangerous to even pass by there. I think it is time to find a new realm...."

Even though obtaining the coordinates of the realms are hard, the difficulty in obtaining the coordinates also depended on the person seeking them.

There were plenty of missions and specific ones in the Realm Alliance.

Truth be told, most of the information held by the 5 Grand Organisations were hidden in other realms.

How could the small benefits be compared to unearthing the realm’s treasures?

"These coordinates are from the core of each of the 5 organisations...a normal dream master would not be able to obtain the coordinates. However, I am a 4th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master with sufficient authority. Even though a previously explored realm does not hold great benefits, the benefits obtained from exploring these realms are still considerable..."

With his thoughts, the identity inscription plate flashed and interacted with the stone tablet as it quickly searched for the information on other realms.

"Given my current authority, I can only access 3 realms? It is not bad considering I had to give up nothing...Hmm? This world..."

He carefully analysed the information before he suddenly drew back as if he had seen something that appeared inconceivable.
