Chapter 316 The Stone Slab in the Dream
Reading Settings
Cao Kun also felt that something was wrong.
Based on his current understanding of dreams, when a person repeatedly has the same dream, dreaming of the same person or the same object, it is a spiritual connection.
You established a certain spiritual connection with that thing through some means.
The other party is using this method to remind you.
"Why didn't I dream about it?"
Cao Kun muttered to himself.
Oh, I don't need to sleep, then it's fine.
Cao Kun continued, "What exactly was your dream like?"
Angelina: "It's similar to what we're filming, in a mysterious space, there's a triangular stone slab like that."
In the dream, the stone slab looked very similar to the props in the movie, but it was more ancient and mysterious.
The patterns on it are also more complex.
However, the stone slab was a single piece, not separate as depicted in the movie.
Cao Kun pondered, "Could it be that this stone slab has truly become a reflection of reality?"
"However, this change is quite significant."
"That's true. If nothing changes, we'll have to create a powerful Light and Dark Society."
Cao Kun asked, "What does this mysterious space you mentioned look like? Do you know where it is?"
Angelina shook her head: "I don't know the location. It's completely dark inside, and the stone slab is floating silently in the air."
I don't know what kind of space it is.
That's a bit hard to find.
Cao Kun thought for a moment and said, "You'll sleep with me tonight."
Angelina laughed immediately: "You're starting to be infatuated with me?"
Cao Kun: "You're overthinking it. I'm just sharing your dream."
Late at night, Cao Kun and Angelina, after exercising, held hands and closed their eyes together.
Angelina was already asleep, but Cao Kun remained awake.
He was using the "Dream Manipulation Technique" to examine Angelina's dreams.
However, at this stage, Angelina's dreams are a mess, and most of them are colored.
This woman is so damn horny.
These dreams were completely illogical; one moment she had superpowers and was flying around in the sky.
A moment later, she was presented with the golden statuette and became an Oscar-winning actress.
Soon after, she entered the $20 million club, earning a $20 million salary for a single film, becoming the highest-paid actress in the world.
A little while later, she defeated the other women and became Cao Kun's sole ruler.
"What the hell is this?"
Cao Kun silently complained to himself.
Cao Kun wanted to see if he would have the same dream after he fell asleep.
But after thinking about it, I decided to take a look at Angelina's dream first, and then try it later.
Suddenly, Angelina's dream changed, and Cao Kun saw a mysterious space.
The space was completely dark, and in mid-air, a very familiar triangular stone slab floated, emitting a faint, white glow.
The faint light barely illuminated a small area around it.
By the dim light, Cao Kun could see that the surroundings appeared to be some uneven stone walls.
"This looks like a cave."
"Damn it, where the hell are we supposed to find this?"
There are so many caves in the world.
"That's very likely. It's a cave without an entrance, located directly inside the belly of a mountain."
Cao Kun was having a bit of a headache.
If we follow the conventional methods, there's plenty of room to find it.
Although, according to the movie's setting, it is highly likely to take place in the two major regions of Myanmar and Siberia, it is not impossible that things could change.
Even in these two areas, it's hard to find anything.
With a thought, Cao Kun appeared in Angelina's dream and reached out to grab the mysterious triangular stone slab.
The moment I touched it, the entire dream shattered.
Angelina shuddered and opened her eyes.
She woke up from her sleep.
Angelina looked at Cao Kun blankly, and after a few seconds, her eyes lit up: "You appeared in my dream?"
Cao Kun grunted in agreement.
Angelina's mouth dropped open: "You can force your way into my dream? What kind of ability is that?"
Before Cao Kun could answer, Angelina waved her hand and said, "Forget it, you don't need to say anything, I wouldn't understand anyway."
Cao Kun: "You can continue sleeping."
Angelina turned around and hugged him: "I can't sleep, let's get some exercise."
After a long while, Angelina fell asleep again.
Cao Kun continued to examine her dream.
But this time, that scene never appeared again.
The following evening, Cao Kun held Angelina's hand again.
But for some reason, that dream still didn't happen.
For the next few days, Cao Kun neither saw the cave nor the triangular stone slab.
"That's strange," Cao Kun said, puzzled. "Could it be that I touched that stone slab in my dream that day?"
"But that's just an illusion."
"No, for something with a spirit, illusion is not truly illusory."
Cao Kun bid farewell to Angelina and returned to the Land of Gathering Evil.
Even during the day, he made himself sleep.
Not long after, Cao Kun saw the cave again in his dream, and saw the triangular stone slab floating in mid-air once more.
"really."
Although Cao Kun was dreaming, he was fully aware that it was a dream.
This is certainly related to "Dream Manipulation Technique".
In his dream, Cao Kun reached out and grabbed the triangular stone slab once more.
And then... and then he just held it like that.
Cao Kun was surprised; this time, it hadn't disappeared.
Just as Cao Kun was about to take a step further and sense the power of the stone slab, it suddenly burrowed into his palm and merged into his body.
Cao Kun opened his eyes and looked at his hand, which was naturally empty.
But he felt that there was a spirituality within him, and that he had established a connection with something.
Needless to say, he knew that it must be that stone slab.
"It really is insightful."
Cao Kun guessed that it was because of his previous fabricated "like attracts like" principle that the stone slab, which had long been reflected in reality, had become connected with Angelina.
Why her?
Because she's the main character; she has the most screen time in this movie, she's the leading lady.
The stone slab had formed a connection with her, which is why she dreamed about it every night.
If nothing else happens, Angelina will keep having this dream.
Until she got her hands on the stone slab.
However, Cao Kun used dream manipulation techniques to take over that spirituality.
Angelina stopped dreaming about the stone slab and instead let Cao Kun dream about it, thus establishing a connection between Cao Kun and the stone slab.
With this connection, Cao Kun was able to find the true location of the stone slab.
Cao Kun felt a surge of excitement.
This is a stone slab that can harness the power of time.
If it were as powerful as depicted in the movies—no… even just one-tenth of its power would be considered a divine artifact.
Cao Kun didn't wait any longer. He didn't even buy a plane ticket; he simply took off and flew into the clouds, heading towards Myanmar.
More than an hour later, Cao Kun stood in mid-air, looking down at the mountains below.
He could sense that the old board was somewhere below.
