A vast sea, with no edge visible. Looking from a distance, there is only endless despair. In the sea, there is only a small island.
Taiyi had just floated to the island holding the driftwood, looking at everything around him blankly.
"Who am I? Where am I?" Taiyi rubbed his head, confused for a while.
Turning his head, Taiyi suddenly saw Houtu on the island not far away.
Seeing Hou Tu, Tai's eyes lit up. At least, through the woman in front of him, he could ask himself about the situation.
Taiyi dusted off the sand on his body and walked towards Houtu not far away.
"Who are you?" Taiyi looked at Houtu curiously.
Hou Tu also stared at Tai Yi, showing a hint of bitterness: "I didn't know that I was a guest in the dream. How tired are you, entering such a deep sleep? You even forgot who you are in the dream?"
"What did you say?" Taiyi asked curiously.
"My name is Houtu!" Houtu sighed as he stared at Taiyi.
"Houtu? Your face is so strange!" Taiyi said curiously.
"My face always changes? Right!" Houtu laughed.
Tai nodded: "I have a familiar feeling, but I can't remember it!"
"Of course you can't remember that you are in deep sleep now, in the depths of dreams, returning to your original heart!" Houtu sighed.
"I don't quite understand!" Taiyi frowned.
"If you return to your roots, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it!" Hou Tu shook his head.
"Where is this place?" Taiyi asked curiously.
"In your dream!" Hou Tu explained.
"My dream? What does it mean? What is a dream?" Taiyi asked curiously.
Hou Tu smiled bitterly. Too focused on returning to the origin, forgetting the self, and similarly forgetting many common sense things.
"I don't know how you could sleep like this!" Hou Tu said with a bitter smile.
"What do you mean? What does my dream mean?" Taiyi asked again.
"This is your dream world, you are the master here, you are the sky here!" Hou Tu said.
"Tian? Am I Tian?" Taiyi frowned in thought.
"No, your name is Donghuang Taiyi!" Houtu emphasized.
"Donghuang?" Taiyi was thoughtful, as if he was a little affected.
"That's right, Dong Huang! Do you remember?" Hou Tu asked expectantly.
"Eastern Emperor? Emperor? Am I the emperor?" Taiyi thought.
"Well, more or less, you are in the outside world, Di Jun is the emperor of the demon clan, and you are the emperor of the demon clan!" Hou Tu thought for a while.
"Emperor? Heaven? Am I the emperor? Am I Tian? Emperor Tian?" Taiyi curiously connected the two identities.
"Uh, Huangtian? That's pretty much it. The emperor of the demon clan is also the sky of the demon clan, Huangtian? Haha, you are really interesting. You even gave yourself a new name!" Houtu said with a smile.
"I am Huang Tian and you are Hou Tu?" Taiyi looked at Hou Tu.
"Almost! Taiyi, no, Huangtian, what else can you think of? You can't, just keep doing this!" Houtu said with a bitter smile.
"I don't know, I can't remember anything. Is this a dream? What a strange place!" Taiyi asked curiously.
"Strange place? I don't blame you. Everyone in the world thinks that there is an underworld where the souls of all living beings live. How do they know that there is no underworld in this world? All that is Pangu's dream. Pangu incarnates all living beings. All living beings are Pangu. All living beings dream. It is the Pangu dream. After all living beings die, their souls live in the Pangu dream, which is the countless galaxies you saw before. Each star is a dream, and some souls live in it. The soul is in the dream, living a dream life, and slowly Forget who you are, and eventually turn into the most original and pure true spirit, and fall into the black hole in the center of the galaxy, which is the black hole we both fell into. In the black hole is the most original dream, and you were the first to fall into it, so , this dream is yours, and I have fallen into your dream!" Houtu explained.
Taiyi looked at Houtu blankly, expressing that he didn't understand.
"Forget it, let's talk about it, you have forgotten countless basic things now, and let me tell you, you don't understand either!" Hou Tu sighed.
"Then what should we do now?" Taiyi asked curiously.
"Wait for you to wake up. I don't know how long you will sleep. When you wake up, we can go out. However, with the way you are, if you want to wake up like this now, I'm afraid...!" Hou Tu suddenly showed a hint of bitterness.
"I think it's pretty good here!" Taiyi looked around.
"Of course, the most original dream is your most original state of mind. Who would have thought that your dream would be so desolate and lonely? A sea, an island? Gone? Gone now? What on earth have you experienced? Have you become so lonely?" Houtu looked at Taiyi blankly.
Taiyi didn't understand Houtu's words, so he ignored them and just looked at the vast sea.
Houtu talked to Taiyi for a while, but finally found that it didn't make sense, so he ignored Taiyi, leaving Taiyi alone to sit on a big rock, looking at the vast sea in front of him.
Hou Tu began to check what was on the island.
"There is nothing, nothing. There is nothing on this island except some plants. Hey, there is a tiger cave? But it is empty! There is also a big pill here? What is this pill? So similar to a woman? Weird, weird!" Hou Tu looked around the island.
But there is nothing on the island.
"Other people's dreams are terrible, and I have no power at all! Just like a mortal!" Houtu trudged across mountains and rivers in depression.
After all, he is also an ancestral witch. Here, he has no power to restrain a chicken. Fortunately, there are no ferocious beasts here, otherwise he would be miserable.
The island is not big. After a long time, Houtu turned around in a circle. At the same time, he became more and more weird towards Taiyi. How could Taiyi's heart be so desolate and lonely
After staying there for a few days, Hou Tu became impatient. There was nothing here, he couldn't practice, and no one talked to him. It was so depressing.
"Huangtian, when will you wake up!" Houtu walked back to Taiyi Land depressedly.
Taiyi was still sitting on the big rock, looking at the sea, lost in thought. Maybe the environment here just suits Taiyi's state of mind, and Taiyi doesn't seem lonely no matter how long he sits.
Taiyi is not alone. Houtu is irritable and wants to pull Taiyi, hoping that he will wake up early and let him go out.
"I don't know!" Taiyi shook his head.
"I don't know, I can't stay here all the time. Let's go, I'll take you to visit the island. Maybe if you encounter something that excites you, you'll wake up! Let's go to the Tiger Cave first!" Houtula Just leave Taiyi.
Soon, the two came to the foot of a mountain and saw the tiger cave. The appearance of the Tiger Cave is exactly the same as the one behind Zhenfa Villa in the future.
It was the place where Taiyi, the Tiger King, was born in his previous life. At that time, it was in this Tiger Cave that he met the previous emperor.
"Look, there are tiger paw prints on the edge of this tiger cave. What do you remember?" Hou Tu asked expectantly.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered over the island, as if a storm was coming, and the surrounding seawater stirred up huge waves. Huge waves and boundless tsunamis seemed to submerge the island.
"What? Such strong emotions? Stormy? What memories do you have in this tiger cave? So violent and profound? Do you have such big mood swings?" Hou Tu asked in surprise.
"Crash!"
Suddenly, heavy rain poured down.
The heavy rain fell, and Hou Tu suddenly trembled: "Ice rain? Biting ice rain? It's so cold, so cold!"
Houtu shivered all over, as if he was about to be frozen by the ice rain.
"Unforgettable, cold to the bone? Is this a memory you can't forget? It makes you so heartbroken? What's in the tiger's cave?" Houtu shivered with cold and looked at Taiyi in surprise.
When Taiyi saw the Tiger Cave, he trembled all over, as if a huge surge of sadness could not be stopped.
This sadness turned into heavy rain and tsunami.
This is the emperor in the previous life. Taiyi thought he had forgotten the emperor. Unfortunately, he had not. Instead, this love and pain were hidden in the deepest part of his heart. Even Taiyi himself could not touch this deepest part. If it were not for today Taiyi thought he had forgotten the origin of this dream.
I forgot, Taiyi looked at the Tiger Cave, his emotions fluctuating in a daze. This stop lasts a day and a night.
"Don't look at the Tiger Cave, don't look at the Tiger Cave, this is your dream, any emotion you have will be transformed into the celestial phenomena here, don't look at it, Taiyi, don't look at it, Emperor Tian, don't look at it!" Tubi shouted weakly.
Maybe Houtu's scream was too miserable, and Taiyi finally woke up. He turned around and saw that Houtu's whole body was wet, and he was shaking as if he was frozen. It was so miserable.
"You're going to freeze to death!" Taiyi stepped forward and hugged the trembling Houtu.
With this hug, Taiyi's mood was disturbed, the tsunami around him became smaller, and the ice rain became smaller.
Taiyi used his body to warm Houtu.
Shivering and weak, Houtu suddenly felt an extremely warm feeling while hiding in Taiyi's arms. This warmth resolved the sadness in Taiyi's heart, and also resolved Houtu's fear.
For the first time, Hou Tu felt such a feeling of despair, that abyss of helplessness. At this moment, being held in Tai Yi's arms, an inexplicable sense of security grew in his heart.
After a long time, Taiyi calmed down, and the storm around him completely stopped, and the tsunami also stopped.
However, after this time, part of the island was submerged again, leaving only two-thirds of its original size.
"Are you okay?" Taiyi asked.
"I'm fine, hehe, I'm sorry, I didn't know this was where your pain was, so I let your pain be released!" Hou Tu said with a bitter smile.
"Really? Hehe, I don't want to stay here either!" Taiyi said with a bitter smile.
"Let's go over there. There is a woman who looks like a pill over there! I hope that is something that makes you happy and warms your heart!" Hou Tu said.
Taiyi gently let go of Houtu, and suddenly stepped out of Taiyi's arms. Houtu's face suddenly turned red.
The two walked towards another woman who looked like a pill.
"This should be a pill that has been magnified countless times. From the looks of it, this pill can be eaten, right?" Hou Tu looked at Taiyi curiously.
When Taiyi saw the woman-shaped pill, his fists clenched and his eyes turned red.
Lan Liyan, the shape of the pill is the same as Lan Liyan.
"boom!"
The dark clouds that had just dispersed began to cover the sky again, but this time it was not dark clouds, but blood clouds.
"Boom Kaka!"
Under the lightning and thunder, rain fell from the sky again. However, it was not ice rain at this moment, but blood rain. The blood rain was violent, and a drop fell into Hou Tu's mouth. Hou Tu suddenly tasted a boundless bitterness.
Bitter rain of blood
"How, how could it be possible?" Hou Tu looked at the surrounding sea water in surprise.
The sea water turned red, and all the sea water turned into the color of blood. The sea of blood was violent, and once again set off a huge tsunami.
Seeing the turbulent sea of blood, Houtu's expression changed drastically and he turned to look at Taiyi.
But when he saw Taiyi's eyes, he actually shed tears of blood.
"Don't look at it, don't look at it, no wonder your world is so lonely, the sorrow just now, the blood and tears now, you, what have you experienced, why are you so painful and lonely! Stop looking, don't look at this pill! "Houtu immediately pulled Taiyi and wanted to leave.
