When Han Zhan called out the nas of Frog and the Dream Demon.
The eyes of Elder Bing beside him suddenly ignited with pitch-black flas.
"When did you find out?" he asked, puzzled.
"You don’t think you’re really well-disguised, do you?" Han Zhan spoke, putting so distance between them.
"Since entering the mory World, I already noticed. I just wasn’t sure of your true identity, and I wanted to know the truth about Chen Zhongxia’s sudden death back then, which is why I never exposed you."
As Han Zhan watched the other person’s increasingly grim face, a cold smile appeared on his own.
The Dream Demon orchestrated the death of Chen Zhongxia, drove Bai Su insane; just a few verbal provocations were enough to disgust him.
"Elder Bing didn’t even know the na of the elixir he was crafting, yet you called it by na at once."
"At the first instance the elixir took effect, I even asked Elder Bing what would happen next. His answer was ’I don’t know’, but after entering the mory World, he seed to know everything."
The appearance of two completely different situations in such a short ti could only be explained by Elder Bing being swapped.
"Is it a bit hasty to suspect based on just this?"
After Han Zhan exposed his disguise, following a mont of looking grim, the Dream Demon quickly adjusted his mindset.
He stood leisurely in place, looking at Han Zhan and asked.
"Hasty? Indeed, if it were just this one point, I couldn’t be completely certain, but your flaws are more than just this one."
Han Zhan continued:
"You used your ability in the Consciousness World to create mist that could hide your presence, yet pretended it was Elder Bing’s Precepts effect."
"If I’m not mistaken, when we were on the rooftop, it was because you secretly withdrew so of the mist that our vital energies leaked, and Chen Zhongxia noticed."
"If I hadn’t detected the Sword Qi gathering around his body in advance, I should have been expelled from this Consciousness World by now."
The reason the Dream Demon wanted to expel him was obvious; he did not want Han Zhan to discover any clues about him.
The enemy hidden in the shadows is the most fearso.
Once exposed to sunlight, his threat diminishes significantly.
"And that night, why would an assassin co to kill , yet the next day all the servants of the Chen Mansion were alive? The only explanation is that the assassin’s real target was just ’’!"
"Unfortunately, you were too careless, or rather, even you found it not as easy as imagined to manipulate and use the rules of this mory World."
"You ultimately failed, unable to kill , nor could you force to resist, break the rules, and have the mory World expel ."
"Your biggest blunder was when you ntioned the Substitute Tool."
Given a choice between the Substitute Tool and the truth, Han Zhan knew Elder Bing would absolutely choose the Substitute Tool, abandoning the truth!
With flaw after flaw, Han Zhan beca certain that this Elder Bing before him was a fake.
"Then how did you know I am the Dream Demon?" Dream Demon Frog asked curiously, posing another question.
"Frog’s Diary," said Han Zhan, enunciating each word.
When he heard these five words, the Dream Demon revealed a look of realization.
"I never expected those tiny, torn-to-shreds diaries to see daylight again," said the Dream Demon with a reminiscent tone.
Because back then, he wasn’t the Dream Demon yet; he was still Frog, the chief scientist of the Longevity Company, a human.
With Frog’s Diary, it wasn’t so difficult to associate it with the identity of the Dream Demon.
The pill formula that Elder Bing produced, it was Frog who originally developed it; whatever his purpose for making it, one thing is certain, it wasn’t just so ordinary item if it could be struck by lightning.
Soone familiar with the pill formula couldn’t be Elder Bing, but only its creator, Frog!
Who is now the Dream Demon!
Clap, clap, clap.
After hearing Han Zhan’s analysis, the Dream Demon couldn’t help but applaud. "Brilliant, brilliant, I underestimated your keen observation and intuition."
Being unmasked by Han Zhan, he wasn’t flustered.
The fact that the Dream Demon still had ti to applaud demonstrated he still held the advantage.
"Yes, your analysis and guesses are all correct. From the first mont the Spiritual Awareness Pill erupted, I was drawn by the commotion here, then seized the opportunity to steal his identity and enter the mory World."
The ’he’ that the Dream Demon referred to was Elder Bing.
"Initially, my plan indeed was to expel you from this mory World, ensuring you couldn’t touch its truth."
"However, I didn’t co unprepared, especially after the failed assassination that night, at which point my plans changed."
Han Zhan and the Dream Demon seed like two old friends catching up.
When Han Zhan finished, it was the Dream Demon’s turn to continue speaking.
He held up one finger.
"Since you’ve read Frog’s Diary, you should know about the parts I erased in the diary."
"Such as: what kind of hidden risks might exist after injecting No. 001 Deformation Potion."
Regarding this part ntioned by the Dream Demon, Han Zhan indeed saw it in Frog’s Diary.
He didn’t interrupt; the Dream Demon continued:
"The ultimate point of deformation for the No. 001 Deformation Potion, I believe you’ve guessed, is this Dream Demon form I am now."
"But it also has a huge hidden risk: the spiritual soul of the Dream Demon form is too powerful to be borne by an ordinary physical body."
"The physical body that originally belonged to Frog was unable to carry the increasingly powerful spiritual soul, eventually being obliterated because it couldn’t bear it. I could only continue to ’wander’ in the City of Extre Evil in the Dream Demon form."
So, in the end of the diary, Frog went missing, becoming the Dream Demon; he wasn’t lying.
The reason why it’s hard for people in later generations to see the traces of the Dream Demon is because it has no corporeal existence.
What’s the Dream Demon’s purpose in telling him this information?
"You must be curious why I’m telling you all this."
"Because it has to do with two major things I’ve done over these years."
"Han Zhan, let ask you, if you were the Dream Demon and your spiritual soul was too powerful, making it impossible to exist in the real world, what would you do?"
Faced with this question, Han Zhan’s gaze sharpened, and he provided his answer.
"Find a sufficiently strong physical body to serve as a vessel for carrying your spiritual soul."
"Bingo! Correct answer!"
The Dream Demon snapped his fingers.
The motive for wanting to harm Chen Zhongxia using the Dream True Fruit as bait seed to be found.
