According to the data investigation of Deep Sea, the most beneficial sleep time for human health is about eight hours a day.
If you don't rest or sleep for a long time... you will soon become unable to concentrate, your thoughts will become confused, and then you will experience heart failure and eventually sudden death. The peak that an ordinary person can endure is about three days.
Of course, these data only apply to ordinary people. All scientific data cannot be applied to transcendent individuals.
Obviously.
This lady has already reached her limit of collapse.
After three days without sleep, she has lost the ability to speak a complete sentence... With the support of Gu Shen, she finally came to the recliner and closed her eyes.
But it was just closing her eyes.
Closing her eyes does not mean falling asleep.
"I... can't sleep..."
After closing her eyes, the lady's voice trembled and said with difficulty, "It started three days ago... no matter what... I can't fall asleep..."
Who would have thought that the biggest nightmare is the inability to fall asleep.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
"Close your eyes and clear your mind."
Gu Shen's voice was very soft. He squatted beside the recliner and gently comforted her emotions. A tiny but hot flame cracked open in the center of his forehead.
This appearance of the blazing fire was completely different from before.
This strand of flame trembled violently without making a sound.
"There is a residual transcendent aura..."
Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming serious.
He tried to release his spiritual power through the blazing fire.
"Sizzle~~~"
The blazing fire made a slight sound.
Gu Shen felt that his current state was somewhat strange... It was like he had opened a third eye.
He saw a bigger and broader world.
Or rather... this was the more real world!
When his spiritual power projected through the blazing fire, everything that came into his sight, including objects and people, were analyzed and dissected—
Was this the unique "vision" of the spiritual system of transcendent individuals?
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "p𝑎wread.com".
However, this method was consuming his spiritual power. Gu Shen speculated that as the blazing fire grew stronger, the world he could see would become larger and the consumption of spiritual power would also increase.
Currently, this consumption was nothing.
Thanks to the uninterrupted practice of the Awakening Breath Method during these days, Gu Shen's spiritual power had been tempered and was now quite abundant.
He carefully examined the lady from head to toe.
She was an ordinary person, and unlike Little Xinjie, she did not carry any seal objects... Her current symptoms of insomnia should not be caused by mistakenly wearing a seal object.
"Affected by transcendent power... causing the loss of sleep... If the cause cannot be found on the material level... perhaps the answer can be found in the 'dream realm'." After thinking for a while, Gu Shen silently came to a conclusion in his heart, "I need to hypnotize her, force her into the dream realm, and find the truth in her dream."
In fact, from the moment he saw her.
Gu Shen had already been considering something more important than hypnosis. It was not difficult to treat this insomnia patient. He had already awakened as a transcendent and had the support of the blazing fire. It would only take a second to make her sleep peacefully.
But what was truly important... was to find the source.
This could already be confirmed as a transcendent event.
Perhaps this was also part of Cui Zhongcheng's investigation of himself?
During this minute of contemplation, the compartment was silent.
Following the lady's instructions, she closed her eyes. However, after waiting for a minute, she couldn't help but tremble and say in a low voice, "Dr. Xiao Gu... I still can't fall asleep..."
"You can open your eyes now."
Gu Shen's thoughts returned to reality.
Upon hearing this voice, a look of despair appeared on the lady's forehead.
She thought she had found the right person... but now it seemed that Dr. Xiao Gu also had no solution...
She slowly opened her eyes, and the bright light from the ceiling's incandescent lamp shone, dazzling and blinding. After several tens of hours without sleep, the whole world seemed to be spinning.
And it was at this moment.
The lady felt that she was experiencing a severe hallucination.
She seemed to see a strand of blazing fire appearing on Dr. Xiao Gu's forehead.
It was even brighter than the incandescent lamp.
But it was not dazzling, it was very gentle.
"Buzz."
All the noisy sounds in this world disappeared, leaving only Gu Shen's gentle and deep voice.
"Sleep peacefully... You will have a good dream."
The woman on the recliner closed her eyes again, and her exhausted spirit finally found peace. She fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by low murmurs in her dreams.
The young man sitting silently by the side remained motionless, like a stone sculpture.
...
...
In the endless darkness, Gu Shen opened his eyes.
He stood in the extreme darkness, surrounded by howling cold winds from all directions, as if they wanted to tear him apart.
"She has successfully fallen asleep."
Gu Shen's expression was calm. This was his first time hypnotizing someone and his first time using the power of the blazing fire to enter someone else's dream.
It was different from the time with Han Dang.The blaze had just begun to take shape, and Gu Shen had yet to discover abilities akin to domains... In other words, he had not yet completed the construction of his dream territory. The incident at the orphanage was a result of him being forcibly pulled into Han Dang's True Word Domain.
This time, however, he was willingly "immersing" himself.
"The dream of an ordinary person is so cold and dark... This must be a terrible nightmare."
Such a terrible dream indicated that her spirit was on the verge of collapse.
If she hadn't encountered him, or a special entity with hypnotic abilities.
This lady's fate would likely be... more bad than good.
Gu Shen extended his fingers, slowly grasping, a series of flames tore through the darkness, roaring and dancing, eventually transforming into a floating lantern, illuminating this dark dream.
Frost, wind blades, all were driven away by the blazing fire beneath Gu Shen's feet.
"In dreams... the power of the blaze is much stronger than I imagined."
Gu Shen clenched his fist, feeling the fluctuating spiritual power, "Indeed... My Transcendent trait is more inclined towards the spiritual, isn't it?"
He exhaled slowly.
The blaze spread out, and the circle of light gradually enlarged.
Gu Shen spoke softly, he wanted to expand his fire as much as possible... to see this dream more clearly.
"Spread."
At his command, like a divine decree.
The intense flames surged like a tide, forming a sea, completely tearing apart the dark night, incinerating it.
At this moment, the woman sleeping on the lounge chair, her face showed a hint of rosy color, and her cold body gradually warmed up.
In the midst of the sea of flames, the truth of this nightmare was revealed.
Gu Shen lifted his head, his expression gloomy.
Among the countless burning flames, he saw at the top of this nightmare world, dark clouds densely covered, illuminated by the tide of fire into a crimson... vaguely visible nose, eyes, fangs.
It was a human face.
Or rather, the face of a demon.
The clouds at the top of the nightmare world were extremely low, blood-red and ferocious, the demon face opened its mouth, as if it wanted to swallow the world.
If he wasn't mistaken... with the arrival of this demon face, the dream would eventually collapse and be swallowed up, and at that time, the spirit of the dream host would also collapse.
If this was a spiritual imprint left by a sealed item...
Then the characteristics of this sealed item were too malicious, how could an ordinary person resist?
He took a light breath.
Gu Shen recalled the scene of slaying ghosts in the Ghost Cage that day.
At that time, there were thousands of evil ghosts, all of which he had slain.
Having seen the real hell, he would not fear demons.
He extended two fingers, aiming at the huge ghost face in the sky.
In his heart, he silently uttered a word.
"Cut——"
His two fingers slowly swept across.
The dream violently trembled, the night was as fragile as paper, instantly torn apart.
At the last moment, the demon face seemed to show a complex mix of shock, astonishment, and fear, but it was only for a moment, along with the dark clouds, it was cut in half.
