A long time later, Leaf found out that they were the real "Rat God Emissaries" sent out by the Ancient Dream Saintess herself.
It was said that the Ancient Dream Saintess could share her five senses with the emissaries through the secret technique bestowed upon her by the Rat God. She could clearly see and hear everything that was happening in Black-corner City hundreds of miles away from Black-corner City. She could also directly give orders to the depths of the emissaries' brains.
The Ancient Dream Saintess could even "descend" into the emissaries' bodies through an unbelievable method and control their bodies to unleash the exquisite art of slaughter.
It was precisely because Leaf's squad of servants had displayed astonishing potential in the fierce battle against the Blood Hoof Warriors that the Ancient Dream Saintess had inadvertently discovered them through the eyes of the emissaries.
The Ancient Dream Saintess was very interested in the tactical qualities that Leaf revealed that originated from Dragon City and was completely different from the Turan civilization.
Only then did she "descend" to Leaf's side and save him and most of the servants' lives.
"So that's how it is. The Ancient Dream Saintess has been lurking in Black-corner City in this way, but no one has been able to discover her existence. Even if the Blood Hoof Warriors capture a few temple thieves and the Rat God Emissaries, as long as the Ancient Dream Saintess' will is able to get rid of these bodies in time, she will be able to come and go freely and be in an invincible position!"
Meng Chao suddenly understood.
Why was the Great Horn Army so familiar with the situation in Black-corner City? After the series of methane explosions, they were able to deploy all the resources that they could use so efficiently, which was much better than the clumsy performance of the Blood Hoof Legion.
It turned out that it was because the "supreme commander" was personally on the frontline.
As for the secret technique that Leaf had mentioned that could share senses and remote control from hundreds of miles away, Meng Chao believed that it was real.
That was because the monster civilization, the first life-and-death enemy that the Dragon City civilization faced, used similar technologies to maintain the operation of the entire civilization.
The monster mastermind that was lurking in the depths of the Hidden Mist Domain in the sinkhole's lair could also use the super brain that was 100 meters in diameter to remotely control the torrential beast tide hundreds of miles away without leaving the house.
Of course, the Ancient Dream Saintess's remote sensing and transmission technology should be a level higher than the monster mastermind's.
That was because she was not remotely controlling a muddle-headed monster.
Instead, it was a carbon-based intelligent life form with logical thinking ability and independent will.
If the person being controlled had any hesitation or even resisted, the Ancient Dream Saintess' soul that had "descended" into their body would have met with misfortune.
Perhaps this was the reason why the Ancient Dream Saintess first brainwashed all the rat people so that they would believe in the Big Horned Rat God without any doubt.
"Go on, and then?"
Meng Chao fell into deep thought.
"Then, the messenger of the Rat God brought us through a tunnel and escaped from Black-corner City."
According to Ye, they were led by the messenger of the Rat God through a special passage.
They did not follow the large group to the large-scale teleportation array that Meng Chao had seen before.
Instead, in a facility that looked like an abandoned underground temple, he found a teleportation array that was two to three arms in diameter and could only accommodate one or two people standing at the same time.
Although this teleportation array was small in scale, its teleportation distance was several times greater than the one Meng Chao had taken.
They were teleported to the springs that led to the Xiankong Grassland and the Battle Drum Forest.
Furthermore, he did not hesitate to plunge into the War Drum Forest.
"Wait, so you walked into the War Drum Forest with the messenger of the rat deity?"
Meng Chao's expression was a little strange.
Yezi nodded honestly.
He told Meng Chao that there were several secret camps of the Big Horned Army in the depths of the War Drum Forest. Many elite rat soldiers who had followed the Ancient Dream Saintess for several years were there to welcome them.
He also underwent a series of tests in the secret camp and fell into countless strange dreams.
"Is there a skeleton rat god statue made of white jade? When your blood is soaked in and you focus on it, you will see illusions, as if the statue is getting bigger and bigger until it is indomitable?" Meng Chao asked.
"Reaper, how do you know?"
Ye was slightly stunned and then patted his forehead. "Yes, since you can appear here, you must have passed the entrance test of the White Bone Camp!
"That's right, it's that statue.
"However, there is more than one such statue. There are a total of five of them, each with a texture of white jade, bronze, mithril, gold, and amethyst. It is said that each statue contains a different dream world, which can bring more and more challenging tests to the tester. Furthermore, the warriors who successfully pass the test will be gifted with more and more power."
Ye said that the time he spent in the War Drum Forest was much longer than the hasty entrance test Meng Chao and the others had carried out.
For several days in a row, he was immersed in one bizarre and inconceivable dream after another.
In some dreams, he was an ancient warrior whose muscles were bulging and his blood was boiling. He was armed to the teeth by totem armor. In the fierce collision of thousands of soldiers and horses, he and countless enemies died together in countless most heroic and miserable postures.
In some dreams, he became a gladiator in an ancient arena and had to face the armored totem beasts with his bare hands. He also tasted the feeling of his organs being hollowed out and his lonely spine being chewed by the totem beasts countless times, which made strange sounds.
In some dreams, he seemed to be in temples that were full of traps and killing intent, but contained endless treasures. He had to do his best to stimulate his courage and wisdom to the limit and "die" countless times before he could find a chance of survival in the mysterious and complicated traps.
This kind of "dream cultivation" could extend the training time infinitely by crazily squeezing the potential of his brain cells. In just one night, he could forcibly pour hundreds of hours of training content into the depths of his brain.
Of course, the price was also huge.
Almost every time Ye woke up, he would find that at least half of his companions who had been sitting around the skeleton rat statue with him had disappeared.
In the place where they had disappeared, there were deep drag marks and even thick bloodstains that extended all the way to the depths of the forest.
Even if his companions who were barely holding on and sitting cross-legged were often bleeding from their seven orifices and gnashing their teeth. Their faces were filled with absent-minded, fanatical, and ferocious expressions. They needed to rest for a long time before they could recover their temporary calm.
As for Ye himself, he also felt a pain as if his brain was boiling.
He wished that he could use a chisel to drill two holes in his temples and release the high-pressure magma inside.
At the critical moment, Ye thought of the methods that Meng Chao had taught him to control spirit energy and slowly circulate the spirit meridians around his body.
When he was young, he and his brother found the human-shaped mural with flashing arrows in the depths of the dense forest behind Half Mountain Village in an inconspicuous cave.
It was strange.
Whether it was the flashing mural in the secret cave with his brother when he was young.
It was still in the depths of the Black Prison in the Blood Skull Arena, practicing the spirit martial arts from Dragon City with Meng Chao.
Ye was still in a daze and did not understand many of the key points.
Although he had obtained the characteristics of being able to stretch out his hands and feet in a large range, being as elastic and tough as rubber, and not being afraid of the attacks of ordinary weapons.
However, in the face of a true expert, such characteristics were not enough to save his life.
However, under the dual stimulation of the murderous dream and the intense pain in his brain.
The rat youth seemed to have suddenly been enlightened.
When the surging spirit energy, accompanied by the intense pain, rushed from the brain to the spirit meridians around his body, and then from the spirit meridians to the capillaries and nerve endings, he actually did not encounter any obstacles.
It was as if the secret cultivation method from Dragon City, the secret cultivation method from the ancient murals, and the secret cultivation method that the Big Horned Rat God had given to all the rat people were perfectly fused together, promoting each other and achieving half the result with twice the effort.
When the other rat soldiers could not take it anymore and stopped in front of the white jade skeleton rats and the bronze skeleton rats, Ye Feng was like a fish in water.
But Ye was like a fish in water. He rapidly improved and soon adapted to the third level dreamland cultivation released by the bronze skeleton rat.
Ye, who stood out, once again attracted the attention of the Ancient Dream Saintess after his fierce battle with the Blood Hoof Warrior in Black Horn City.
As a result, he also enjoyed a higher standard of treatment that was different from the others.
Not only could he obtain more high-energy food than the other rat soldiers, but when others were gnawing on dried mandrake fruits, he could enjoy the bloody flesh of totem beasts, as well as the fragrant and sticky secret medicine that was as thick as honey.
Moreover, the Ancient Dream Saintess had personally descended into his dream!
