Chapter 199 Fantasy Heart Lotus

"Were they preempted? Aren't they also here to look for Huan Xin Lian?"

Chen Shuyan lay on a tree branch next to Lin Xiaoman, looking at the two groups of people fighting below. One group was disciples of the Yanyue Sect, and the people on the other side were wearing ordinary clothes, like casual cultivators.

Their mission this time is to find the Illusion Heart Lotus, a fifth-level spiritual plant, and this mission can be stacked. Normally, a mission is completed if one Illusion Heart Lotus is obtained, but if two more can be obtained, it is considered that two foundation-building missions have been completed.

That's why they accepted the task of this fifth-level spiritual plant this time.

"It's not impossible. According to the map, the Illusion Heart Lotus is nearby. Look there, isn't it the Illusion Heart Lotus?"

Wang Musen said in a deep voice, and suddenly pointed in a direction. Everyone looked over and saw a swamp not far away, full of lotus flowers. In the middle of it was a lotus that had already produced lotus seeds...

“Illusionary Heart Lotus!!!”

Everyone exclaimed, their eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but fly over there.

Lin Xiaoman was also pleasantly surprised, but at that moment, a trace of doubt flashed through her mind: why didn't they discover the swamp over there at the beginning? And there was such a large lotus field.

But soon, she felt her mind go into chaos. She looked at the lotus in the swamp again and found it particularly beautiful. She even smelled a fragrance in the air. It was the fragrance of the Illusion Heart Lotus. It smelled so good. If she ate one, it would probably be delicious.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in my hand, "hiss!"

Lin Xiaoman looked down and met a pair of familiar purple eyes. He instantly woke up and realized that he had fallen from the tree to the ground without knowing when, and was near the group of people from the Yanyue Sect. Chen Shuyan and the others had already started fighting with them.

Melee!

It turns out that this was the reason for the melee. Everyone was confused and deceived by the illusion!

"Tuanzi, thank you for saving me again. What should I do? How can I make them wake up?"

Lin Xiaoman rubbed the ball in her arms, frowned as she looked at the scene in front of her, and stuck two Qingxin Talismans on herself. This was something she learned from ancient talismans. It had no other use, and its main function was to make herself calm and sober.

"Hey, you can use this."

"Meow." Tuanzi gave her an appreciative look, which made Lin Xiaoman happy and amused. But at this moment, she didn't care about these things. She quickly took out a handful of Qingxin Talismans, pinched the magic formula, and scattered them all out, throwing them on the people in the melee, especially Chen Shuyan, Wang Tiantian, and Wang Musen, and threw several more.

Fortunately, the Qingxin Talisman is still somewhat useful. Even if one is useless, two, three, or ten will always be of some use. We are all cultivators. After we became a little sober, we realized that we had been tricked and separated immediately.

"What happened? Were we deceived?"

Chen Shuyan and the other two were the first to wake up. They quickly retreated to Lin Xiaoman, looking down at themselves and asking.

"There should be a spiritual plant or monster with powerful illusions nearby. Be careful. Here, apply more Qingxin Talismans."

Lin Xiaoman distributed a handful of mind-clearing talismans to the three of them, and retreated while trying to get out of the range covered by the illusion first.

Wang Musen hadn't done a mission with Lin Xiaoman for a long time. Seeing her familiar operation again, he silently looked at the various talismans stuck all over Lin Xiaoman's body, and couldn't help but twitching his mouth.

"good."

He also quickly put a few more on himself. He didn't know how to use the Qingxin Talisman, and he didn't have any. He still had Xiaoman around, and he felt safe.

The three of them quickly retreated, distancing themselves from the people from the Yanyue Sect. They retreated to a certain distance and stopped only when they felt it was safe.

At this time, they woke up, and the independent cultivators and disciples of Yanyue Sect on the opposite side also woke up. Everyone was wary of each other and retreated as soon as possible.

Everyone looked around and found that there was no so-called swamp, nor were there large patches of lotus. As for the Fantasy Heart Lotus, there was not even a ghost of it.

"Huh? What's going on? Where's Huan Xin Lian?"

Chen Shuyan turned his head and looked around, then asked in confusion.

"It should be around here, otherwise how could we be under the illusion?"

Lin Xiaoman frowned, hugged Tuanzi, and whispered to her in her mind, "Tuanzi, can you sense where the Huan Xin Lian is?"

"No, but I know where the guy who just set up the illusion for you is."

"Really? Great, tell me."

Tuanzi pointed her in a direction, which turned out to be under a big tree. There was a small grass growing there, just an ordinary green grass, nothing special. If Tuanzi hadn't pointed it out, she would never have found it.

"Are you sure it's there? Just a blade of grass?"

"Sure, be careful when you go over there, don't get caught again."

"Don't worry, I'm calm." Lin Xiaoman patted the talismans all over her body. She had been prepared for a long time.

"Shuyan, I know where the monster that's teasing us is. I'm going to quietly catch it. You two help me cover."

Chen Shuyan and the others' eyes lit up when they heard this, "Okay."

When Lin Xiaoman retreated behind the three people and slowly moved towards the grass, the people from the Yanyue Sect opposite had already spoken.

"Are you a fellow Taoist from the Tianyan Sect? I am Zhao Qingxi, a disciple of Fairy Biyun from the Yanyue Sect. Are you here for the Huanxin Lotus as well?"

Chen Shuyan's face was grim, and he pursed his lips and said coldly, "So what if it is, so what if it isn't?"

Zhao Qingxi seemed not to notice Chen Shuyan's cold face, and bowed towards this side with a smile.

"We are all disciples of the upright sects of Haoyue Continent. We can discuss the matter of the Illusionary Heart Lotus later, but right now there are other unorthodox cultivators who want to fight for it. We should work together."

Chen Shuyan frowned and turned to look at the group of casual cultivators. There were also four people on the other side, all of whom seemed to be in the early stage of foundation building.

If they cooperated with the three people from the Moon-Shattering Sect, they could completely crush these independent cultivators, but...

The expressions of those wandering cultivators changed when they heard that. One of them, a sword cultivator, came out and said to Chen Shuyan.

"Fellow Daoist, although we are independent cultivators, we are not evil cultivators. We are only here in the Misty Forest to complete a mission for Yunmeng City. You are here for the Illusionary Heart Lotus, but we are not. Perhaps we can cooperate."

At this moment, Zhao Qingxi of Yanyue Sect's expression changed. He became extremely angry and scolded the man.

"You are shameless. You are just a casual cultivator. How could we, disciples of a legitimate sect, be in the same group with casual cultivators like you?"

Chen Shuyan was originally a little confused and angry about how to choose, but now she stood there with her arms folded across her chest, smiling, and spoke to Zhao Qingxi and the swordsman who were looking at her.

"That's fine. How about you guys compete again? Whoever wins will be the one I'll team up with."

Zhao Qingxi's face suddenly turned ugly, "You! Chen Shuyan, don't be so shameless!"
