Ten hours?!
Tang Ling furrowed his brows as he nervously prepared himself.
He did not even have the time to wonder why the dream entry was so rushed! From the start of the countdown, there were only ten hours left.
He could not relax because no matter how many times he entered the dream, the dream world would always place him on the edge of life and death based on his strength.
There were too many things to do, and his body had yet to recover to its peak condition.
Tang Ling's forehead was drenched in sweat, but he was still moving his body. He wanted to recover to his peak condition within ten hours.
Han Xing, on the other hand, went to Boss Huang right away.
Entering the dream required resources.
Even if Han Xing had to fork out all his Black Sea coins, he would have to ask Boss Huang for some resources.
Boss Huang was also a Dream Seed.

The sudden arrival of the dream made many of the young geniuses nervously prepare themselves.
On the other hand, Tang Long, who had woken up for almost 15 hours, was unusually quiet.
He woke up almost at the same time as Tang Ling.
With the best care, he even recovered faster than Tang Ling when he woke up.
However, after he contacted the Stardust Council through the communication device, Tang Long sat on the chair beside the window and fell into silence.
It had been more than four hours. He did not eat, drink, speak, or move at all.
He thought about the resolution that he had made before Higan left. Did it not sound like the biggest joke now?
What was that resolution? After everything was settled, he wanted to propose to Higan and they would never be apart again.
What was the truth? Higan had suffered the harshest punishment in the Stardust Council and wanted to leave the council.
Tang Long was smart. He understood why Higan made such a decision. What was the meaning behind it? He also thought about why Higan had given him more than ten days of dream-like time before she left.
Higan did not change at all. She was still the same as before.
She was repaying him in a way that she thought was reasonable and then she could stand beside Tang Ling without any restrictions.
As a matter of fact, she did not really think about who she was to Tang Ling and what kind of identity she wanted to stay by his side, but she did what she wanted.
Everything was Higan's style! That's more like her …
When Tang Long thought of this, he didn't even have an expression on his face. He just took out a cigarette bought by a servant and lit it up.
He did not have the habit of using anything to hurt his body, but now, he had to admit that the invention of the old civilization was really interesting. It could only hurt his body, but it could not save his soul, yet it could numb him a little when he was in the most unbearable state.
Just like his feelings for Higan! Even now, he still felt sorry for the punishment that Higan had to endure — the Wood Punishment!
Tang Long had seen a traitor from the Stardust Council suffer this punishment before.
The white flowers bloomed on his body, accompanied by a painful wail and streams of blood. The traitor could not hold on in the end and fell with the white flowers all over his body.
However, Higan managed to endure it. What was she thinking during the painful process?
Did he think of himself at all?
Faint blue smoke rose from Tang Long's fingertip. Even though he had been unconscious for many days, even though his heart was broken and he looked haggard, he still maintained the elegance of a prince.
However, if someone else in the room looked at Tang Long's side profile, they would have a feeling that he would be crushed with a single touch.
His thoughts were always calm and cold when combined with words. He did not even show his emotions.
Only Tang Long himself knew how unbearable the heart-wrenching pain was!
He had to face the cruelest outcome and he had to feel sorry for Higan in addition to the cruel outcome.
The light from the setting sun spilled over the room, making it look dreamy. With the cigarette in his mouth, Tang Long squinted his eyes and looked at the ceiling above him.
Creak! The door of the room was pushed open.
Tang Long's anger seemed to explode at that very moment. He did not want anyone to disturb him at a time like this.
"Get out." Tang Long didn't turn his head. He only ordered in a cold tone.
However, the person did not seem to realize it. She stood on the spot and the room was very quiet.
Tang Long turned around with furrowed brows. At the next moment, the cigarette in his mouth fell to the floor, burning a small hole in the expensive carpet on the floor before it extinguished on its own.
Throughout the whole process, Tang Long did not even blink his eyes.
His furrowed brows were relaxed and his eyes were overflowing with a thousand emotions. He had been wondering why Higan loved him so much.
However, at this moment, when he saw the person in front of him, he no longer had any doubts. Why did he love her so much? Was it because they relied on each other in the other world for two years?
No, it was the first time he laid eyes on her and it felt like ten thousand years.
The person standing in Tang Long's room was the first person he laid eyes on.
Compared to the devastatingly beautiful and unparalleled beauty that could topple a nation, she was still a little young. Her face that had not fully matured already had the shadow of a soul-stirring beauty in it.
However, this was the Higan that was hiding in the deepest part of Tang Long's heart. She was the one that moved him in the first place. She was like a burning soul fire that warmed him up and at the same time, burned his Higan.
Higan stood there quietly. Her expression was exactly the same as when he first met her.
Tang Long stood up from the chair and cautiously walked to the shore step by step.
The background behind her was twisting and changing, forming an irregular whirlpool. Tang Long knew it was the entrance to the demonic world even when he died.
"It's fine." Tang Long walked closer to her. He squatted down and extended his hand, wanting to grab the edge of her clothes like he did before.
This time, however, he did not get what he wanted. Before he could grab her, she suddenly took a step back and turned around to enter the demonic world.
When she was at the edge of the whirlpool, she suddenly turned around and flashed a strange smile at Tang Long with a dark aura.
Tang Long's confused, sorrowful, and affectionate eyes suddenly cleared up.
He stood up. Such a strange situation could only remind him of one thing — a dream.
He was given another chance to enter the dream at a time like this.
A strange smile appeared on Tang Long's face as he walked into the whirlpool without a second thought.
Not to get stronger.
Not to get something?
All because he wanted to return to the demonic world in the dream. Even though it was a hellish world, he wanted to be with her.
Did Tang Ling have the ability to destroy his dream? No …
Tang Long's smile grew calmer. He knew it all! The Stardust Council had the most complete information about the Dream World in the entire world.
Before entering the Dream World, there would always be a test dream for the first entrant. The dream came from one's own inner demon.
Was it dangerous? It was definitely not as dangerous as the real Dream World! But was it not dangerous? No, it was actually the most dangerous. If one could not break the inner demon or submit a satisfactory answer to the Dream World, one would be trapped in the inner demon's dream forever.
Tang Long was willing to do it.
**
Every second counted in the ten hours.
Tang Ling was almost done with all the preparations he could make.
The Black Sea coins that he had saved up during this period of time were exchanged for some resources from Boss Huang and spent them all.
The Dream World was not a child's play after all. Tang Ling dared not be stingy when it came to this kind of thing.
There were less than ten minutes left on the countdown.
Tang Ling was doing the last bit of tidying up as he placed the items into his backpack one by one.
Ding Ling and Ding Dong, the two little meatballs, laid down in Tang Ling's room and watched him work.
Monty did not appear.
As a matter of fact, Monty did not show up during the days that Tang Ling was unconscious. After Tang Ling gave Boss Huang the silver egg, what did Boss Huang do to Monty?
In short, according to Boss Huang, Monty was in hibernation.
Winter was almost over, so what the hell was hibernating? Besides, did an octopus hibernate? Nevertheless, no one argued. If Boss Huang did not want to say anything, who could force him to answer?
Tang Ling had finished packing his backpack. He turned around to the two little meatballs and found it funny that they were staring at him without blinking.
"Little Tang Tang, are you going to wake up from your dream this time?" Ding Ling finally spoke with a worried tone.
"Hmm, Lil Tang Tang, don't tell me you're going to die while dreaming?" Ding Dong sounded like she was about to cry.
"Who told you that?" Tang Ling sat down and hugged the two meatballs on his lap as he asked casually.
"Boss. Every time he had a dream, he would leave us his last words … "Ding Ling pouted, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Yeah, he said that if he dies, we'll follow the list he gave us and find the women on it. He asked those women to tell him the truth. Did they bear his children? "Ding Dong grabbed Tang Ling's shirt, feeling scared and sad at the same time.
What a mess! Tang Ling was speechless! Is Boss Huang scaring kids again?
"No. If his last words are related to a lot of women, he won't die. He's just trying to scare you. You can teach him a lesson while he's dreaming. Maybe you can paint him a face or something … "Tang Ling was a person with a conscience, so he always taught Ding Ling and Ding Dong a lesson as their big brother.
"Really?" Ding Ling and Ding Dong looked at Tang Ling.
"Of course! Is that why you two are pestering me? Are you guys unwilling to listen to Boss Huang's last words? "Tang Ling was amused.
"Of course not! We are worried about you," Ding Ling expressed her sincerity.
"Mm-hmm." Ding Dong also nodded in agreement.
"Why don't you go to Han Xing?"
"He's dumb and his room is filled with pictures of female sisters. We don't want to go."
"We like Little Tang Tang. We've known him for a long time."
"Is that so?" Tang Ling's lips curled into a warm smile as he caressed the two meatballs' hair.
When he looked up, the purplish moonlight shone into the room and lit up a corner.
Han Xing stood in front of Tang Ling's room. He wanted to cry but no tears came out. He wanted to enter Tang Ling's dream to see if they could enter the same 'world'.
Of course, Han Xing was not confident at all. He just wanted to give it a try, but when he heard Ding Ling and Ding Dong's disdainful words, he wondered if he was really that bad.
Boss Huang's miserable voice came from upstairs, "My Little Ding Ling, Little Ding Dong, aren't you going to record your boss's last words?"
Amidst the strange atmosphere, Tang Ling saw a door appear in the corner where the purplish moonlight shone.
