“So, let’s go and see what it is all about,” said JiangChengxuan with a smile.

“Perhaps this journey into the secret realm might help us achieve our goal.”

As they spoke, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Huang Wenyu headed towards the source of the light.

At this moment, there were countless people like Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Zheng Hengyu.

Clearly, everyone had realized that there was definitely an extraordinary opportunity in that place.

Perhaps, they might be able to obtain unexpected gains from it.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

Streaks of light shot across the sky as numerous people hurried towards that direction.

Initially, everyone was excited and thrilled, eagerly heading to that place.

However, as time passed, some people gradually realized that no matter how they moved in that direction, the distance between them and that place did not decrease at all.

There were even many Nascent Soul cultivators among them.

No matter how they advanced, they could not get any closer.

In an instant, many people understood.

It seemed that not everyone could enter the secret realm that had appeared.

In its own way, it was screening the people who were allowed to enter.

After some time had passed, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Huang Wenyu also noticed this.

However, unlike those who tried but failed to get closer to the secret realm, they didn’t need much time to fly towards it.

Soon, the entrance to the secret realm was in sight, and surprisingly, no one else was there except for them.

Could it be…?

At that moment, all three thought of the same question: Were they the first ones to arrive at the entrance of this secret realm?

Buzz!

Just as this thought crossed their minds, they saw a pathway suddenly open at the entrance of the secret realm.

They exchanged glances and, without any hesitation, all rushed into the entrance of the pathway.

Whoosh—

It felt like passing through a membrane.

Suddenly, the scenery around them started shaking violently.

When Jiang Chengxuan looked again, he found himself sitting in an office.

The familiar computer, PowerPoint, a cup of coffee, familiar colleagues, the familiar sound of typing on keyboards…

All in all, all kinds of familiar feelings suddenly overwhelmed him.

It was as if he had woken up from a grand dream, leaving Jiang Chengxuan momentarily disoriented and bewildered.

“Jiang, you’re awake.

You must not have rested well last night. Look at you, those dark circles under your eyes are so heavy,” a familiar female voice reached his ears.

It was a woman in her thirties with a mature and intellectual aura.

She was Hua Meiqin, his mentor at the company.

“Yeah, I probably didn’t rest well last night. Thanks, Sister Qin, for covering for me,” Jiang Chengxuan said, scratching his head awkwardly, just like when he first met Hua Meiqin.

“Yo, why are you being so polite with me?”

Hua Meiqin replied, pretending to be a bit annoyed but with a hint of affection in her tone.

“If you didn’t rest well, make sure to take a good rest at noon.

You’re young, but don’t take your health for granted.”

“Yeah, I understand, Sister Qin,” Jiang Chengxuan nodded.

During lunchtime, Jiang Chengxuan, as usual, went to the company cafeteria to eat.

However, he suddenly received a message on his phone.

It read: “I saw a really nice bag on a live stream today, and they’re having a promotion. It’s only 1888. Can you buy it for me as a gift?”

Soon after, another message with a link to purchase the bag arrived.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

He typed a response: “Can this wait until I get paid next month? I had some big medical expenses for my mom this month.”

Then, he cautiously added another sentence.

“How about we choose a cheaper one for now?

Next month when I get my salary, I’ll buy you that one. How does that sound?”

After sending this message, there was a noticeable silence from the other end.

This made Jiang Chengxuan feel inexplicably nervous.

He really didn’t know how the person on the other end would react to his words.

Thankfully, the wait wasn’t too long.

Suddenly, another link was sent from the other side, accompanied by a message.

“If it’s next month, then I want this one.”

Jiang Chengxuan clicked the link to see, and his breath immediately hitched.

He didn’t even bother to see what the item was, but just stared at the price.

“5999”

His monthly salary was barely over six thousand, and now she wanted to buy something for 5999…

Jiang Chengxuan clenched his lips tightly, then took a deep, forceful breath.

More messages kept coming from the other side.

“Anyway, I don’t care. If you’re going to buy it for me next month, it has to be this one.

Otherwise, don’t bother, and you must buy me that other one this month.

You choose.”

“Hey, Jiang Chengxuan, are you even reading my messages? Why aren’t you replying?”

“I remember you still have some credit left in your account, right? Why don’t you use that money to buy me the cheaper one for now? After all, I don’t want you to spend more money either.”

“Hey, why are you still not talking? If you don’t say anything, I’m really going to get angry. [Angry emoji]”

As he read through the barrage of messages, Jiang Chengxuan suddenly felt a deep sense of exhaustion from the bottom of his heart. He rubbed his forehead forcefully with his hand.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally clicked on the profile picture in the chat, then found the option to delete the friend.

After hesitating for a while, he eventually sighed, smiled bitterly, and clicked delete and confirm.

Phew—

It felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.

He continued working in the afternoon.

However, just before finishing work, the department manager informed everyone that they needed to work overtime for a bit.

And this “bit” turned out to be three whole hours.

By the time Jiang Chengxuan dragged his tired body back to his rented apartment in the city, it was nearly 10 o’clock at night.

After taking a shower and lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, he found himself lost in thought again.

How did his life, seemingly well on track, loop back to the starting point?

Working class, 996 work culture (9 am to 9 pm, 6 days a week), 007 work culture (24 hours a day, 7 days a week), blind dates, housing loans, car loans, medical expenses…

Heh, is his future still going to be like this? Like a cycle, repeating endlessly, just like in his previous life.

If only the dream he had before was real…

‘Well…’

At this thought, Jiang Chengxuan, who was initially in a daze with a hint of confusion in his eyes, suddenly had a slight contraction of his pupils.

A dream? Was everything he experienced before really just a dream?

He suddenly sat up from the bed and began trying to sense the spiritual Qi in this world, based on his memories.

However, there was none.

Despite trying for a long time, he didn’t feel anything.

But at this moment, his heart no longer believed that what he had experienced before was merely a grand dream.

He began to earnestly recall every detail of his previous experiences.

Gradually, his aura began to change.

Although he was still just an ordinary person without a trace of Dharmic power, as his conviction in his past experiences grew stronger, a faint and elusive spiritual insight, seemingly hidden yet apparent, began to be gradually captured by him.

Indeed, the real dream was not what he had experienced before but rather his current reality…
