BIRTH OF DRAGON WARRIORS
171 - Chu Kai [5]

Chu Kai watched the two young men who were arguing before him this. He again drank tea in the ceramic cup in front of him despite having no taste and before long, the charming young man in front of him turned his head and spoke to him.

"You have previously said that this dreamland landscape happens as a form of defense, because the dream demon is improving its practice. Can't we move now and mess with the dream demon so that the practice doesn't rise? It's dangerous if the cultivation practice increases,"

Chu Kai looked at the subject before him and calmly said, "I don't think there's anything that can be done now other than waiting. You guys are facing a dream demon and not an ordinary cultivator, but ...."

Chu Kai hung up his words and made the young man named Crazy Beggar Boy feel nervous. He also played with his ceramic cup and returned to the test.

Chu Kai said, "I could have just said the known information about the dream demon and the thing that you guys should do. But there's a fee for all of that,"

"Payments?" The Crazy Beggar Boy gasped. He looked at the charming young man beside him because he was currently holding no money at all.

"What kind of a baby do you want?" Xiao Shuxiang asked with a serious look. It was seen that he better understood the word 'payment' that Chu Kai meant.

"Hmph, the pay I want might be like .... Your ages?"

!!!

"You..!" Xiao Shuxiang flinched and at the same time the Mad Beggar Boy was startled and almost fell from his seat.

Chu Kai laughed and then shook his head slowly. He took a breath and said, "You guys are too serious. Very funny,"

"W-how can you do such a joke?" The Mad Beggar Boy tightly hugged his bamboo stick, "You even did that in this kind of situation. That ... That's not good, you know."

The reaction of the young man before him was so funny. Chu Kai let out a soft snort and a blessing, "I'm sorry then, it's just that I thought you guys needed a little entertainment."

Chu Kai continued, "The payment for the information I will provide is help. I need to borrow your powers to do something,"

The two young men showed different reactions. Xiao Shuxiang asked, "What kind of help do you want? And didn't you say our strength was like a praying mantis to you? Then why do you still want us to help?"

"This young man is too wary," Chu Kai sighed and said, "Yes already if not willing. I'm not pushy, but you're really gonna lose if you don't listen to me."

"Shuxiang, it's okay. Let's follow him, you don't protest for now."

Xiao Shuxiang looked at the Mad Beggar Boy and then exhaled. "Okay, okay. I won't do it again,"

Chu Kai smiled, and he gave an explanation. "The world is vast and there are many powerful warriors. You and this flour-faced man are two of the many warriors who can give me a hand. You also have a duty to protect your world and I also have a duty to protect my home,"

Chu Kai, "In this Upper Cultivation Realm ... Divided into several regions. The Demon Valley Sect itself was one part of the Central Plains. This nephew of Mu Chen is a pillar of the Middle Continent that is in the Lower Cultivation Realm and you yourself are also a protector in the continent where you live. We have the same task, even the difficulty is not much different."

"I can understand a bit," the Crazy Beggar Boy said, "But why do you call me 'niece'? Don't you know who I am, huh?"

"My age is older than you. Do you really not remember me?" Chu Kai jolted to himself as he suddenly said such a thing. His forehead shriveled, but quickly his reaction calmed down.

The Mad Beggar Boy gasped, "W-have we met before?"

"I also don't know why I say such a thing. It feels..." Chu Kai shook his head slowly before finally sighing.

The man with natural green eyes did not think too much about it and then said slowly. "I think because of my cross-sectional face, this won't be easily forgotten. But I think time has really made you forget things. I'm actually a little hurt, honestly,"

Not only was the young man with the strange makeup on his face in shock. On the other hand Chu Kai was also very confused. The longer he was with this person, the more familiar the feeling in his heart became.

It felt... Chu Kai had a close relationship with this figure named Crazy Beggar Boy and it was not only because of the Dragon Breathing Technique. The feeling was the same as when he saw the past of Xiao Shuxiang who had a relationship with the heirloom sword in his hand.

"I'm getting scared..." Chu Kai thought to himself, "I once read about the Upper Cultivation Realm when it was confined in an ancient tomb back then and Wei Shezi who provided information about the Demon Valley Sect. The thing is, the distance between the Demon Valley Sect and the location I went to with Wei swordsman Zhang Zihan is very far. So..."

"If you're really older than the Crazy Beggar Boy and have some connection to the Dragon Breathing Technique, then is it possible that you're a swordsman who also mastered the six elements of Inner Energy like him?"

Xiao Shuxiang's words resuscitated Chu Kai. The natural green-eyed youth blinked and cleared his throat slowly, trying to keep looking calm.

Chu Kai shook his head, "No. I am a cultivator like you and not a novice like him. The Dragon Breathing Technique has a close relationship with me and we are inseparable. Only at a certain moment can I meet the heir to this breathing technique of mine."

Xiao Shuxiang involuntarily opened his mouth, looking shocked. He smiled bitterly as he said, "Ja-don't say you are-"

"Right," Chu Kai pitched seriously. "I was the one who created the Dragon Breathing Technique that your friend learned so he could become what he is today."

!!!

"He's your teacher, Mad Beggar Boy. He's your ancestor, you have to bow down to him." Xiao Shuxiang patted and nudged his arm at the man beside him.

"This ... This is impossible ..."

Xiao Shuxiang smiled, his words containing a plunge as he said to the Mad Beggar Boy. "I know you must be in shock, but look on the bright side. There are people older than you, Crazy Beggar Boy. You're not alone being an aged man,"

Xiao Shuxiang looked pleased with the expression of this man beside him and sighed softly, "The world is indeed very vast. I'm honored to meet you. Honestly speaking, this person beside me is very annoying and thinks highly of himself just because he has lived longer. This young me was really tested by all his behavior,"

"really?" Chu Kai smiled, to be honest he was impressed by being able to perform until being treated respectfully by this charming young man.

Chu Kai said, "It's good to hear it from you. Now I'll explain as far as I know about the help I want from you guys and all of this has a connection with a being who is considered 'Devil'."

"Kai, are you sure you'll tell them?" wei Shezi's voice rang out and made Chu Kai smile again.

"of course. I've come this far and it's impossible to draw all my words,"

Seeing the reaction of the two youths who were putting on a serious expression made Chu Kai unhesitatingly begin to explain.

"The world is being threatened with these very terrible creatures and although I am strong, but I cannot face them alone. My job is to gather decent people and be able to help fight these demons. You two ... Although it is still at the level of praying mantis practice, but I can feel that you have the potential to improve this ability of yours."

"Wait a minute," Xiao Shuxiang said. "You helped us defeat the Dream Devil and you want us to help you fight the real devil?"

"The time is still a long time," Chu Kai replied. "But I have a chance to talk to you guys right now so I thought I'd just say it. Now listen,"

The information Chu Kai gave was in accordance with what Wei Shezi had provided. That humans generally slept at night and even some cultivators there made sleeping like an exercise.

Almost everyone must have dreamed and this dream is the source of the power of the Dream Demon that must be faced by the two young men before him.

Chu Kai also explained that while there were still humans sleeping, then the power of the dream demon would never decrease. This kind of cultivation technique was unique, not everyone had the talent to do so, and was extremely dangerous to opponents. Xiao Shuxiang and the Crazy Beggar Boy really had no chance of winning.

Of course, Chu Kai's explanation made the two figures in front of him shocked. Xiao Shuxiang was seen holding his breath and asked in a serious tone. "How far is the range of this Dream Demon power?"

"The range?"

"Tell me that it is immeasurable" Wei Shezi's voice sounded and Chu Kai seriously said as the woman said.

"It was immeasurable and could even reach more than one continent. You guys are dealing with real monsters."

Crazy Beggar Boy was startled, "You must be kidding..! Shu-Shuxiang, how is this?!"

Chu Kai said. "I can't tell you not to worry, but you should know this one. Because his power can be said to be infinite, the dream demon has difficulties within itself. It could have affected his mental state and this was the most severe,"

Chu Kai continued, "To be able to cope with his condition... Dream devils generally divide.You should be able to find that part of the split soul and defeat it. This piece of soul must be defeated at the same time and the only way to finish it off,"

Xiao Shuxiang, "But you said his strength was immeasurable and we had no chance of winning. Then how can we beat him?"

"Who is stronger between the two of you?" Chu Kai asked even though he had already expected a stronger figure among the two youths before him.

Xiao Shuxiang and the Mad Beggar Boy pointed at each other before Xiao Shuxiang pointed his index finger at the man beside him. He said, "He's older than me and has good self-control. So I guess he's the stronger one,"

"Ah, that's right. I am the stronger one," the Mad Beggar Boy nodded confirming.

Chu Kai slightly frowned along with Wei Shezi's voice returning inside his head.

"The charming man before you is a reincarnated man. Technically, he knew about the reincarnation but his memories related to the past had mostly disappeared. I feel..."

"I also saw it," Chu Kai breathed slowly. "The color I see from him is not just from spiritual energy, but more than that. He had a relationship with a creature that did not come from this world,"

Chu Kai sighed, "I don't care about their identity. I really need to get out of this situation right now and look for Miss Xia Ling Qing,"

Chu Kai looked at the Mad Beggar Boy and said, "That means it's you who should go down and look for another soul piece from the Dream Demon in the Lower Cultivation Realm."

"Nature Cultivation Down?" The Crazy Beggar Boy gasped.

Chu Kai replied, "The Lower Cultivation Realm is a place where many ordinary humans live. A very suitable place for the Dream Devil to increase his power and manipulate the dreams of others,"

Chu Kai continued, "I can't say anything more about the Lower Cultivation Realm because it's been a long time since I haven't been there and definitely that place has changed a lot."

Saying about the Lower Cultivation Realm made Chu Kai's gaze slightly decrease. Although no one was aware of it, a faint memory flashed through Chu Kai even though he quickly forced the contents of his head to not remember such things.

"The Devil of this Dream ... Do you have two souls?" Xiao Shuxiang said without a tone and with a serious face he asked, "What if there are more than two?"

Chu Kai took a breath, "Mm ... I thought it was because he was improving his practice, so this Dream Demon was still quite young. But for this ... I can't convince him of you. This could be my mistake with her age, you need to be careful."

The Mad Beggar Boy gulped, "Facing one Dream Demon alone is already this difficult, let alone having to face another Dream Demon. Not to mention, we even have to finish him off at the same time. How can it be done?"

The Mad Beggar Boy asked again, "Can you help us?"

"Kai, I must say that my ability to cover the age of your bones and the level of your practice has a time limit."

"W-What?! Why are you saying it now?!"

"That's it. The point is you don't get too involved with them, just try to put an end to this."

"You..." Chu Kai took a breath, he looked at the Mad Beggar Boy and said. "I want to help, but right now I'm just a soul piece. After this Dream Landscape disappears, I will also disappear and return to my residence."

"Yet you should know one thing" Chu Kai said, "Someone who is already very strong will usually begin to be overwhelmed with arrogance. This high-heartedness makes a gap and if you find it, then the defeat that was previously guaranteed to fall on your side will be changed."

Chu Kai could feel the changes to his body that were now covered in mist and slowly becoming more transparent. Because of that incident, the two young men before him looked shocked.

Beggar Boy, "You-You..! What the hell happened to you?"

"Mn? Oh, maybe it's time." Chu Kai said, "I think it's still a long time for that Dream Demon to improve its practice. But it looks like you guys are dealing with a really talented person. I'm very sad not to be able to help, but I hope you guys are able to overcome this problem together."

Before his body completely disappeared, Chu Kai again said. "That friend is precious and having a reliable friend is the most awesome thing. You should be able to trust each other and work well together,"

Chu Kai felt his body getting lighter before his eyes finally darkened. It just didn't take long until he could look back and this time his position was already in front of a lake, but still within the illusionary realm.

Someone stood beside Chu Kai and the subject was none other than Wei Shezi. The white-clothed woman holding the red fan exhaled.

"Almost got caught," Wei Shezi waved her fan and shook her head softly.

Chu Kai suddenly grabbed the arm of the woman beside him. He made Wei Shezi flinch, yet he did not care at all.

Coldly, Chu Kai said. "Now tell me, what exactly is my relationship with those two people? And why do you know so much about the Dream Devil?"

!

Chu Kai looked at Wei Shezi and solemnly said, "The level of Manifestation I learned... Not only does the dimensional space technique, but it also connects the past and the future. Right, right?"
