Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

To be frank, Carmenia Federation has reached this point, thanks in no small part to Vivian’s monumental contributions.

When she initially mutated into a demon and battled another with demon armor scales, it directly pulled Carmenia down from its pedestal.

The former beacon of civilization suddenly became notorious as a demon breeding farm.

Despite numerous explanations from Carmenia’s officials, striving to prove that "demons have nothing to do with the Federation," the world simply doesn’t believe it.

Previously, the Azure Palace frequently held press conferences; now, they might not hold one even in a week, fearing journalists would inquire about demons.

Since that demon battle, frequent unrest has erupted domestically in Carmenia, leading to a significant economic decline.

Moreover, losing financial dominance caused prices to skyrocket across the Federation, with the chaos persisting to this day.

Thus, during this period, Carmenia has repeatedly experienced bloody conflicts.

For example.

In Montia, thousands of rebels gathered to storm the state government building and publicly hang the state’s leader.

And this leader had undergone blood-sacrifice twice, his physical age reverting from 60 to 20, listed in the Dragon Claw Pursuit Order.

The Federation officials promptly deployed the Air Force, firing several missiles relentlessly, blasting the government building to the sky.

The Federation Army also mobilized massively to annihilate the rebel forces; many rebels were executed on the spot, and numerous civilians suspected to be rebels were forcibly arrested.

It’s imaginable that the probability is high these people will tragically become sacrifices.

More striking is that, had such a horrific event occurred in the Federation a few years ago, it would have surely startled the entire world.

Yet, reports from international media aren’t particularly abundant, with most not featuring it as a front-page headline, demonstrating to what extent Carmenia’s influence has declined.

The global focus, however, is on Great Xia’s completion of the first "liver extracorporeal cultivation and transplant for a chronic liver failure patient" surgery.

Global media excitedly reported, Great Xia Health Administration announced data showing the average life expectancy of Great Xia people significantly increased to 82 years.

Before the Age of Calamity, this figure was 78 years, dropping to 76 during its first year.

In the second year of the Age of Calamity, it rebounded to 79 years, and this year further increased to 82 years.

This is mainly due to the emergence of a range of new medical technologies, for instance, kidney extracorporeal cultivation and transplant, curing over 1.2 million kidney failure patients within a short year.

Globally, Great Xia is the only nation achieving an uplift in average life expectancy.

Comparatively, in other nations on Canglan Star, average lifespan fell by 5 years at the least, 10 years at the most, with drops of 15 and 20 years not uncommon.

The Great Xia Health Administration ambitiously announced to raise Great Xia people’s average lifespan to 90 years within 10 years.

"Civilization is in the East" is now a genuine global consensus.

Furthermore.

During a particular bloody conflict, Carmenia Air Force deployed two fighter jets intending to launch an airstrike against the rebels.

Among them, one pilot turned out to be a sympathizer with the rebels, fiercely shooting down the other jet.

Not only that, but this pilot also dropped missiles and bombs on the airbase from which they took off, resulting in no less than 200 deaths.

From civilians to the military, Carmenia has become chaotic like a boiling pot.

It can be foreseen that this chaos will not disappear anytime soon.

As the main culprit behind these events, Vivian certainly won’t be spared by the Carmenians.

Mount of Gods has joined forces with Qing yang Demon Race, relentlessly pursuing her, having already clashed numerous times.

At this moment.

Yang Fan stood inside the Gel Farm, his mind resonating with Vivian’s anxious voice: "Your Honor, I am in dire need of your assistance!"

He observed her remotely, noting several black scales on Vivian’s back had fallen off, evidently wounded in battle.

Vivian promptly continued: "I was just in a fight with a Carmenian, who injured me; other Carmenians referred to him as ’Holmes.’

"Holmes possesses formidable power; I strongly suspect this person has transformed from Qing yang Demon Race to a human through ’Rebirth Blood Sacrifice.’

Yang Fan pondered for a moment, affirming her suspicion: "It should indeed be Rebirth Blood Sacrifice."

Previously, he incarnated as Mr. Ghost, infiltrating the Sea of Death Black Sand to take out Carmenia’s Holy Flame Legion.

From across the Demon Gate, he vaguely sensed a mix of human and demon distinctness, speculating in his mind at the time.

Vivian’s voice was filled with panic: "Your Honor, currently I feel my soul locked by a terrifying power, which could descend upon me at any moment."

She followed with a judgment: "I suspect Holmes is utilizing a demon artifact."

She has a strong perception that the artifact’s power could instantly kill her, prompting her urgent request for help.

The so-called "demon artifact," in essence, is a variant of the deceitful artifact.

The difference between the two lies in that deceitful artifacts can be used by any creature, whereas demon artifacts can only be activated by demons, essentially adding a certification process.

Yang Fan slightly sensed, soothingly advised: "Don’t worry, I have a way to help you counter Holmes’ attack."

For Vivian, soul-locking is an extremely frightening technique, giving her no chance to evade.

Yet to him, there’s really nothing to be concerned about.
