Multiple Personalities-Chapter 498: Restoration

At that moment, Shen Jingqi caught up. He had some wounds on him, but they didn't seem serious.

"Shen Jingqi, are you okay?" Li Baiyu hurriedly asked.

Shen Jingqi smiled and said, "I'm fine. But it's very dangerous here, we must find your father as soon as possible and get out of here."

Li Baiyu nodded and said, "Okay, but how do we find him? This forest is so vast."

Shen Jingqi pondered for a moment, then said, "I found some clues on the way here, it seems someone's left marks. If we follow these marks, we might find your father."

Thus, the three of them proceeded in the direction of the marks.

While moving forward, Shen Jingqi noticed that the Illusion Dream Forest was very similar to the application "Sensory Paradise" developed earlier in the hospital. The book described a world filled with fantasy, exactly like the environment they were in now.

"Senior, I found that the Illusion Dream Forest is very similar to 'Sensory Paradise'," Shen Jingqi said to Li Baiyu.

"Illusion Dream Forest and 'Sensory Paradise' have some kind of connection," Li Baiyu said.

Shen Jingqi nodded and said, "'Sensory Paradise' contains descriptions about neuron projection. I think the Illusion Dream Forest might have been created based on neuron projections."

Li Baiyu felt a stirring in her heart; she suddenly remembered something her father had said before. "Neuron projection? Did my father also create the Illusion Dream Forest using this technology?"

She looked at Shen Jingqi seriously and said, "Jingqi, I've realized that you are the neuron in the origin. It was my father who, when creating the Illusion Dream Forest, brought you out from the fusion of forces when I entered the origin. Only you can save the entire world, break the core of the four-dimensional consciousness space, namely the Mysterious Land my father created — the Illusion Dream Forest, and ultimately dismantle the entire four-dimensional consciousness space."

Shen Jingqi widened his eyes in shock. "Me? How is that possible?"

"Jingqi, you are the key that connects the real world and the four-dimensional consciousness space. Only you can unravel this mystery and save us all."

"Alright, I will do my best," Shen Jingqi said determinately.

He suddenly understood why he could see the information strips.

This was originally part of the inherent ability.

The three continued forward and finally arrived in front of a gigantic cave. The cave emitted a mysterious and powerful aura, as if it concealed countless secrets.

"I think your father might be inside," Shen Jingqi said.

Li Baiyu nodded, took a deep breath, and slowly walked into the cave. Her mother and Shen Jingqi followed closely behind her.

The cave was dark and damp; the walls shimmered with eerie light. They proceeded with caution, each step filled with vigilance.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared ahead. They quickened their pace toward the light. When they exited the cave, a gigantic square appeared before their eyes. In the square stood an enormous palace, its appearance resplendent and mysterious, exuding an aura of awe.

"Is that the core of the four-dimensional consciousness space?" Li Baiyu asked in surprise.

Shen Jingqi nodded and said, "Most likely. Let's go in and take a look."

They entered the palace, where a mysterious aura pervaded. The walls were carved with strange symbols and patterns, seemingly narrating an ancient and enigmatic story.

In the center of the palace, they saw Li Yuanshin. He lay there quietly, his face pale, eyes tightly shut, as if in a deep sleep.

"Father!" Li Baiyu shouted and rushed over. She gently shook her father's body, but he had no response.

"What happened to him?" Her mother asked anxiously.

Shen Jingqi stepped forward and examined Li Yuanshin's body carefully. "He seems to be sealed by a powerful force. We must find a way to break the seal to save him."

At that moment, a deep voice suddenly resonated in the palace. "Did you think you could easily break the seal? This is a consequence sown by Li Yuanshin himself, and he must bear the corresponding outcomes."

"Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Li Baiyu asked loudly.

The voice chuckled coldly, saying, "I am the Guardian of the four-dimensional consciousness space. Li Yuanshin intruded here unauthorized and disrupted the balance. He must pay the price for his actions."

"But we only want to save him, we mean no harm," Li Baiyu said.

The Guardian was silent for a moment, then said, "If you want to save him, you must complete a task. In the depths of the Illusion Dream Forest, there is a control platform. Only by obtaining that control platform can you break Li Yuanshin's seal. But I must warn you, that control platform is guarded by a powerful force, and activating it may cost you your lives."

Without hesitation, Li Baiyu said, "Alright, we'll go. No matter how dangerous, we must save our father."

Thus, the three of them headed toward the depths of the Illusion Dream Forest.

Finally, they arrived at the location of the control platform. It was a gem shimmering with multicolored light, suspended on a large platform, surrounded by a formidable energy shield.

"This is the mysterious control platform," Shen Jingqi said.

Li Baiyu nodded and slowly approached the platform. As she neared the gem, suddenly, a powerful force threw her back.

"No, this shield is too strong; we can't get close," Li Baiyu said.

Shen Jingqi pondered for a moment, then said, "I remember 'Sensory Paradise' mentioned a method to break the energy shield. We need to find the energy source of the shield and then cut it off."

Thus, the three began searching for the energy source of the shield in their surroundings. After some effort, they finally found an energy crystal hidden behind a rock.

"This is it," Shen Jingqi said. He cautiously approached the energy crystal, preparing to destroy it.

However, just as he was about to act, a group of bizarre creatures suddenly appeared. They surrounded the energy crystal, emitting low growls, as if warning them not to act recklessly.

"It seems they are guarding the energy crystal," Li Baiyu said.

Shen Jingqi nodded and said, "We have to find a way to lure them away."

The three of them discussed and devised a plan. Li Baiyu and her mother were responsible for distracting the bizarre creatures, while Shen Jingqi seized the opportunity to destroy the energy crystal.

The plan was put into action; Li Baiyu and her mother intentionally made noise to attract the attention of the bizarre creatures. The creatures chased after them, and Shen Jingqi took the opportunity to rush toward the energy crystal.

He raised his weapon and struck the energy crystal forcefully. With a loud crash, the energy crystal was destroyed. The shield immediately vanished, and the mysterious gemstone floated in the air.

Li Baiyu and her mother shook off the bizarre creatures and ran back. They looked at the gemstone with joy in their eyes.

"We did it," Li Baiyu said.

The three carefully retrieved the gemstone and swiftly returned to the palace. They placed the gemstone on Li Yuanshin's body, and suddenly, a beam of light flashed, and Li Yuanshin slowly opened his eyes.

"Father!" Li Baiyu exclaimed, embracing her father excitedly.

Li Yuanshin looked at them with gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you, you saved me."

At that moment, the Guardian's voice echoed again. "You have completed the task and broken the seal. But you must know, the balance of the four-dimensional consciousness space has already been disturbed, and if not restored in time, the entire world will fall into chaos."

Li Baiyu nodded and said, "We understand. We are willing to take on the responsibility of restoring the balance."

The Guardian was silent for a moment, then said, "Alright, I will assist you. But the process of restoring balance will be very difficult, and you must be prepared."
