Lee is sitting cross-legged in a semi-world.

She is finally ready to advance.

It took relatively long; although she has a lot of masteries, she is not a protagonist after all.

Her Rachel helped only a little; giving everyone the main protagonist's luck and lots of resources would be impractical.

Still, as Lee was trying to craft a dream complete law, Rachel sent some helpful resources and treasures for breaking through.

Lee tried to advance to rank 10 but failed the first time.

Her realm dropped to the late stage of the ninth rank. It took her 10,000 years to meditate back up, even with all the pills she got from Rachel.

Finally, she reached the peak again, so Rachel brought her into a semi-world again.

Lee opened numerous sealed boxes.

She collected most of them herself, with only a few rare ones sent by Rachel.

With closed eyes, she started without ado.

More than 10 different kinds of fragment laws entered her body along with hundreds of ways.

She quickly constructed the formation with them. This time, her formula is much shorter, and she has experience.

After the formation consolidated, she opened all the other bottles. Near a hundred different fragment laws and over a thousand ways entered her body.

She spent a lot of time shortening the formula as much as possible.

If it were anyone else, they might not have been able to do it, but Lee had many masteries, so her ability was far beyond rank 9.

A formula with only around 1000 ingredients is precious; she may be able to sell it for a fortune.

High-ranking civilizations need all kinds of formulas to enrich themselves and perfect their formulas; no formula is perfect; there are always ways to improve it. Knowing other mages' perspectives is an excellent way to improve one's own formula.

Lee has many great-grandmaster masterpieces; her perspective is very valuable.

She can't use her masteries to their maximum extent now because her rank is low. When she reaches rank 10, she can design and sell all kinds of spells, earning lots of money.

Even with all her masteries, she still failed once; that shows how difficult it is to advance.

But this time, everything went smoothly. The formation worked perfectly, combining all the materials and creating a complete law!

...

"Complete law of 'Dream moderation of binds and seals for justice!'" Lee was delighted.

From today, she is immortal!

Rachel is also happy. This complete law is new!

The reason for its strange name is obvious. Lee discovered many other dream laws, but Rachel had all of those, so after many tries, she finally advanced with this law that Rachel did not have.

This law is quite broad. It involved three things.

1- Moderating dreams, which by itself can be very broad.

It can be used in a roundabout way to manipulate other's dreams; with some spells, it is going to be hard to defend against.

Very few know a thing about the dream concept.

2- Binds and seals, which have many uses, including in making formations.

Technically, it's only about binding dreams, but again, it can be used to bind reality, too. It will get weaker in reality, but because its concept is rare, most cannot defend against it properly.

3- Justice, which has good firepower, especially against those who are considered evil by the caster.

This one is also about justice in dreams, not reality, but there are ways to apply it to reality.

The law itself is broad, but by itself, it's not that good; after all, its primary functions are all about dreams, so it will be at a disadvantage in the face of a law that directly applies to reality.

If Lee device a spell that can draw others into her dream, however, this law will be very powerful; in her dream, as long as the opponent is not an expert in dream concept and is not too much more powerful than her, she is guaranteed to win.

Also, one must not underestimate concepts. She can use them to devise some mighty spells and formations.

With excellent spells, she can even fight against weaker rank 11s.

Masterful spells are critical in battles.

Let's use an analogy.

For example, a rank 11 has sturdy armor and a giant steel sword; in contrast, a rank 10 has just a tiny steel needle; both have the same steel, but rank 11 has much more of it.

Stolen novel; please report.

But even a tiny needle can be enough to kill a knight in sturdy armor.

Of course, there are limits to this. If the knight is wearing full armor that leaves no space to attack, then no amount of skill can bridge the gap.

Strong rank 11s are full plate armor knights, which Lee has no chance against, no matter her masteries.

As for rank 12, they are flying steel giants with laser eyes; against them, a tiny needle makes no difference.

"Congrats," Rachel said.

"Thanks!" Lee smiled.

She consolidated her rank and was sent back to her world.

Nurses were caring for a child in a room guarded by rank 9 mages.

"Get out!" Lee said.

They bowed and left.

Alex was asleep.

Even after tens of thousands of years, Alex is still a baby.

Lee now knows why. Alex is the Dream of Karl, the child he never had; the entire dream world was centered around Alex, and when the dream world disappeared, it all went into Alex.

Lee got concepts, which in turn caused the dreams to be will-less and therefore easier to gather in one place, which formed Alex.

Alex is not a child; he is Karl's most important and lasting dream. But it doesn't mean Alex cannot become real.

With a Dream complete law, Lee can make Alex 'kind of' real. She can moderate dreams; Alex is a dream, so in theory, Lee can manipulate him and turn him into an adult person who is indistinguishable from anyone else.

But she has to research a spell and formation. Without a good formation, the modified Alex can lose his shape in combat, and without a good spell, Lee may not be able to do it; after all, Alex is the dream of a rank 13 being.

Karl died countless years ago, so his dream now is much weaker than it was at first; his dream also has no will, making it easier to modify. Even more, Lee is familiar with it, so she can cut many corners. But even with all that, it's still a bit much for her to manipulate a dream of a rank 13.

Success is not guaranteed, but it is possible. She wants to do it; it's the least she can do for Karl, who gave her his inheritance. Lee likes paying back favors. Karl never willingly gave her anything, but the fact is her masteries are from him; she must at least make his dream 'real.'

...

Red is flying around.

Rachel had fixed him long ago. The process was easy for Rachel, who is a master of coding.

After that day, Rachel #1 ordered Red, after she fixed him, to create a dragon nest on that continent where the Demon King of Sloth was sleeping.

The main body does not want Lazy George to wake up. He can run away from her space seal spells, making him troublesome.

Of course, she can destroy him personally in a head-to-head battle, let alone she also has Luther, the strongest in the universe.

Still, one particular universal law in Lazy George's hand is too hard to block. She has to build a massive formation with astronomical amounts of realization points to block that universal law just to stop him from running; there is nothing to gain from attacking him.

Therefore, it's best to keep the status quo; anyway, he is always asleep; it would not be too late to get revenge once Rachel reaches rank 14.

Red, who was sane now, created a huge clan.

He has little chance of reaching rank 10. He is no genius and is not good at anything; he even fears flying again!

The only reason he is as strong as he is is because of Rachel's pills. Therefore, Rachel will not help him to reach rank 10. She helps geniuses, and he is by no means a genius. Maybe if one of Red's many children turns out a genius, she would help them instead.

...

In heaven, Doris is looking at a huge tree!

She has been watching it for a few thousand years. It's fascinating! First, it sprouted out of the soil and then began to grow! It grew so much that it reached more than 500 meters in height!

Doris feels her life is filled with all kinds of exciting events! She continued to watch the tree as it continued to grow tall.

...

Bertha is now a rank 8 knight and a rank 9 mage. Her knight rank gradually lags because knights consume too many resources.

She reached these ranks even without trying, only relying on pills given by Rachel. She wasn't interested in meditating but used pills as a hobby and passively reached this point.

Recently, Rachel has kept talking about rank 10, but Bertha is unsure.

In rank 10, the influence of light energy goes away! Without light energy, could she still love Millan? Even the thought makes Bertha terrified!

Still, with Rachel's insistence, she is not confident she can resist it. One day, she may reach rank 10. She has to find a way to solve the light energy problem. Even though it's difficult, Bertha is optimistic.

...

Emma is partying again!

She parties every few days. Everything is as happy as ever, with no change. Nobody dies, gets sick, or loses anything; everything is as it always was.

...

God of Fate is now late rank 9, and is researching her complete law.

She changed her gender to female again.

She tried being male but did not like it; her spirit is more slanted toward females.

For a god, her attention to gender is weird; most gods do not care at all.

She is still far from rank 10; maybe it will take millions of years more.

...

The Icetree is a rank 10 world independent.

It is mostly covered by ice, with giant trees in certain places, which are home to Snow elves.

Snow elves usually don't live on trees, but they have no choice in this world. The ice is so cold that even snow elves can't resist it.

Lewis is disguised as one of the snow elves. He has been here for thousands of years, and many think of him as an ancestor.

Of course, he isn't the ancestor of anyone; he doesn't have any children with them. Still, as a very old elder of a snow elf clan, it's normal to be called an ancestor, so he just accepted the title.

He is experiencing the world to clear his mind.

He has little drive to advance now. As an immortal, he wants to let go of all his worries and live peacefully.

Alister is also with him; he plays the role of his wife!

This is, of course, nonsense. To begin with, Lewis is not interested in women.

However, in Snow Evles's society, two men having relations is unacceptable;

Lewis is rank 10, so he can impose his will if he wants, but he doesn't want to disrupt the poor elves who are barely living in this freezing world; he just disguised Alistair as a girl so they fit in.

He may later try to change things to make things easier for the even poorer, oppressed few elves who may, like him, not like the opposite gender. They may be severely punished for the Great 'crime' of loving the same gender.

But for now, Lewis wants nothing but peace.

Alistair was uncomfortable at first but gradually got used to it.

He is benefiting immensely from being with Lewis, reaching rank 7 already.

...

Dyer is now an experienced contractor.

As he guessed, the Great Dream wanted him to help in world creation.

Contractors formed teams among themselves to progress faster. Dyer's team is one of the best, creating more than 300 worlds alone.

Some areas, like important coding and settings, were done by the Great Dream's security staff, but contractors did most.

Dyer planned to continue working to pay the debt and gather resources for his advancement.

...

Oll is in his lab.

He had been experimenting for many years but didn't find much. The main reason is that he didn't get the expected anti-Rachel help.

Anti-Rachel was indeed researching Rachel, but they showed no interest in working with Oll. It made him depressed, but there was nothing he could do.

He glanced at a particular unconscious pig-headed demon.

This pig head was his best sample. He learned a few things from it.

Most strange was a weird, foreign aura. Oll has no idea what it is and is still researching it. He is unsure whether the higher-ups would give him enough resources.

Oll already has plans to volunteer to join Anti-Rachel. Great Dream is not obligated to help much, but they still most likely allow him to go because, as an immortal with a lot of voting power who disfavors the current CEO, they would love him to go away and not vote.

"What a bunch of incompetent power-hungry 'immortals.'" he felt shame that such people led the Great Dream.

With this thought, he continued his analysis of the foreign aura.
