When the plot-skips players into the game world

Hearing Aiwass's words, Zhu Tang felt touched for a moment.

The middle-aged ritualist with the heavenly eye slowly exhaled and sighed, "This trip to the west truly witnessed so much, so much..."

He saw slaves who didn't even have the qualification to become human, and he saw gods falling from the sky.

He saw ordinary people helplessly struggling in the tides of change, and saw dynasties of hundreds of years collapse in one morning, changing eras...

He also witnessed the rise and fall of ancient races before humans were born and experienced the complete growth, confusion, and enlightenment of the Savior.

Undoubtedly, all this was impossible to see if he stayed in the Primordial.

"It's indeed a blessing in disguise."

Zhu Tang sighed, "When I go back, I must write a book and make a record. Share all these experiences with Your Majesty and my old friends. It's just a pity that I might not see the end..."

Though Zhu Tang is an extremely strong Great Sorcerer, it is difficult for him to survive the descent of the Abyssal Celestial Envoy.

Thus, he always needed to leave — that was what he most wanted to do.

Although it was unfortunate not to witness the end of Aiwass's story, going back to see family indeed seemed more important.

"It's not really a problem."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ke Prodeno spoke up, "Everything in this world is recorded in the Dream Realm. You have formed a bond with Aiwass, which is tantamount to having the key to the Gate of Truth."

Without realizing it, he changed Aiwass's title to "Your Majesty."

Though Aiwass hasn't seized power over any nation or court, it's entirely an exceeding title... Yet everyone present, even Aiwass himself, did not object to it.

"You mean..."

Zhu Tang turned back, guessing, "Is it the ability to glimpse the truth like the Dream Traversing Monk?"

"Glimpse the truth...?"

Hayna seemed a bit confused but quite interested.

Seeing Hayna's clear eyes, Aiwass sighed helplessly and simply explained, "The Dream Traversing Monk possesses a special ability, which is the ability to write books and make records for others. This ability is akin to the skill of scripting the Codex Book... They script the Codex Book by seeking out those techniques already lost in the Material Realm and preserving them from the Dream Realm.

"Similarly... one's unknown experiences should, in principle, be findable in the Dream Realm."

"But... is there a password? Like a safe?"

Hayna understood.

"Exactly."

Prodeno nodded to her, his attitude quite friendly, "As long as two people can become destiny friends and receive the other's permission; alternatively, finding the other's most important relic, the Dream Traversing Monk can piece together the other person's life information from the Dream Realm. Many untold stories of ancient great heroes are passed down through us.

"After all, heroes don't necessarily reveal all their past to others. Even their critical weaknesses or important flaw information might be hidden within those experiences. How did those solitary experiences become known? That's because of us."

Generally, the Path of Wisdom isn't very friendly to those who aren't particularly clever.

However, Prodeno, despite having no impression of the beautiful and strong yet seemingly not very clever woman, through his Dream Traversing Monk knowledge, saw her past career in the Path of Authority.

Considering Aiwass's wife was the Queen of Avalon, perhaps she was her maid, bodyguard, or secret agent... Yet Prodeno didn't think Aiwass needed protection from a bodyguard, after all.

Upon hearing Prodeno's proposal, Zhu Tang was somewhat stirred, "I am indeed confident in venturing into the Path of Wisdom... But if I recall correctly, advancing as a Dream Traversing Monk is quite challenging, isn't it?"

"I recall a necessary trait, which is acquiring 'Dreamwalker' characteristic."

Aiwass remarked.

"You are truly knowledgeable and well-informed!"

Prodeno half genuinely, half flatteringly praised.

He then added, "Any basic career in the Path of Wisdom can advance to Dream Traversing Monk. The essential trait, as Your Majesty mentioned, is the 'Dreamwalker' critical trait — with this Path trait, one can freely awaken every night's dream, entering the Dream Realm and roam through various domains therein.

"With this trait, one gains the foundational ability to traverse the Dream Realm."

Saying this, he closed his eyes and pointed to his forehead.

A ball of dandelion-like white light lingered at his fingertips, dragging out fine silver threads.

Seeing this, the two Nephthys guards behind Prodeno suddenly became anxious:

"Priest!"

"Please, don't—"

Originally, these two Nephthys guards stood like statues, no matter what conversation was happening, not showing any expression or change, just standing silently with heads held high.

But now, they seemed to come alive suddenly, showing the significance of this matter.

Though Zhu Tang didn't open his eyes, just through his perception and hearing, he realized what was happening.

Without waiting for Prodeno's introduction, he immediately waved, "Don't do it, brother. I appreciate your good intention... But honestly, such precious things shouldn't be taken out. It easily harms relationships. Your words are kept in my mind, and I will certainly seek ways to become a Dream Traversing Monk later."

Prodeno slightly raised his hand, signaling the two guards to quiet down.

And he himself calmly said, "You won't find it. Because the number of Dream Traversing Monks is fixed. Only by having this 'Heart of the Dreamwalker' can one obtain the many supreme permissions of Dream Traversing Monks. Such as scripting the Codex Book and biographies, or cross-path learning of those lost and mysterious knowledge exclusive to other paths."

"In other words..."

Aiwass responded with slight emotion, "Does the death of a Dream Traversing Monk allow a new Dream Traversing Monk?"

It sounds a bit like the demonization mechanism — whether Demon Incarnation or Great Sin Scholar, both need a Mark of Sin. Any Mark works for a Demon Incarnation, but must have a mark to transform into an Upper-Level Demon; whereas a Great Sin Scholar, even without a Great Sin Beast, at least consumes one Pride Seal... meaning the upper limit for Great Sin Scholars is just over a hundred.

"Forty-two, but only forty-one remain in the world today, as one of them is the Angel Envoy Odin. The real Dream Traversing Monks are only this many, the others are incomplete Dreamwalker apprentices."

Prodeno seriously said, "That's the strict upper limit of this profession... You can understand it as the difference between 'university professors' and 'university lecturers.'

Zhu Tang replied without hesitation, "Then I wouldn't want it even more..."

A gentleman doesn't seize what others favor — his upbringing made him unable to take away such important, precious things from another.

Prodeno shook his head slightly, "You should listen to my words first, brother.

"— In fact, this is why I carry out this task."
