Episode 22

The Moon King recognized Huangfu Longdou because ten years ago he led a team to invade the ancient building, but he was the only one who managed to escape and the entire army was wiped out.The Moon King warns that this ending may happen again, and he will have no chance of escape.Huangfu Longdou responded that this group of people was unusual, and invited the Moon King to play a game of chess, where the winner would determine life and death, and the loser would be turned into a stone statue.

On the other side, Cao Yanbing used the King of Hell Fire to fight against the Snow King, but found that ordinary flames could not penetrate the frost condensed by the Snow King's divine power.At the critical moment, Cao Yanbing used the power of Yama of the Tenth Palace to severely injure the Snow King, surprising him.The ice and snow around Xia Ling also gradually melted away. It turned out that the Demon Lord secretly helped her.Cao Yanbing was puzzled as to how he could drive the demon king without murderous intention or anger.Snow King mistakenly thought that Cao Yanbing had sacrificed himself to the Demon Lord, and sensed the Demon Lord's breath and energy.

Cao Yanbing realized that he was controlled by the demon king and called Xia Ling to wake up and help.After Xia Ling woke up, she used the Qiyao Requiem Bell to suppress the Demon Lord's power.Cao Yanbing asked Snow King about the whereabouts of the people who were petrified in the ancient building ten years ago, and learned that in the Moon Palace, the power of the three kings of Feng, Snow and Moon was needed to open the barrier.Cao Yanbing coerced Snow King to send them there, but Snow King sent the two of them to Flower Valley, intending to let them die miserably in despair.

At the same time, Beiluo was also sent into the Valley of Flowers by the Wind King and fell into a coma due to the barrier poison.Cao Yanbing and Xia Ling woke up in Flower Valley and found that the air was poisonous, so they took Li Xuanyuan's elixir to temporarily suppress the poison.In order to find a way out, the two found a cave with completely different scenes inside and outside. There were flowers blooming in the cave, and they met Mr. Xiang, a gardener, and Bei Luo, who was in a coma.

Mr. Xiang said that there is no cure for the poison, and the elixir can only provide temporary relief. You need to leave within a limited time, otherwise you will definitely die.And it is revealed that this place is actually an endless nightmare created by the three kings of Feng, Snow and Moon. Every time you wake up from the dream, your life will end. Only by breaking the nightmare can you escape.

Cao Yanbing and Xia Ling decided to find the Lord of Nightmares and awaken him.After coming out of the cave, I ran into Xia Ling's father and Cao Yanbing's mother, who were suspected to be the masters of nightmares.In order to avoid exposing their identities, the two disguised themselves as residents of the eastern part of Zhenhun Street to talk to them.Because Xia Ling's father knew about Huangfu Longdou's conspiracy and did not want to implicate others, he wanted to commit suicide to avoid future troubles.Xia Ling dissuaded her in time and awakened her father, and the endless nightmare was shattered.

Cao Yanbing proposed to find the next level of nightmare, prevent Xia Ling's father from dying and awaken him, so as to completely break the nightmare.It turns out that Xia Ling's father summoned the soul-suppressing generals to the ancient building because of self-blame. After learning about Huangfu Longdou's conspiracy, he tried to interrogate him but failed but was ostracized. In desperation, he decided to commit suicide.Xia Ling's affectionate call finally made him remember his family, regain his life, and break his nightmare.
