Qiu Changtian walked along the stream cautiously.
The ground was littered with fallen leaves, and it was extremely soft to step on.
Qiu Changtian really didn't like this kind of environment, because if there was a trap hidden under the fallen leaves somewhere, he would have no way to judge and detect it.
However, since Luo Yan said that this level tests the ability to "resist **", let's assume that...
There shouldn't be any strange designs like "traps".
After walking a few dozen steps, the river flows into a lake.
In the middle of the lake, there seemed to be a vague and slender figure washing itself in the water.
A faint and pleasant singing voice came over:
"There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees. I love you but you don't know it..."
Qiu Changtian glanced around and saw a woman's neatly-tied dress lying on a large rock by the lake.
Well, the elements are complete.
Do you think I would use a branch to lift up her dress and tease the bathing woman?
Unfortunately, as a gentleman, I, Qiu Changtian, just like to say "no" to those self-righteous people!
Qiu Changtian turned around without hesitation, and before he took a few steps, he saw a beautiful woman coming out from behind a tree.
The dress she was wearing was exactly the same as the one placed on the big rock by the lake.
Looking over the lake again, sure enough, both the figures and the singing had disappeared.
"Sir, why are you so unromantic?" The beautiful woman was about to cry and wanted to move closer.
Qiu Changtian quickly stepped back a few steps, as if the other party was a poisonous snake or a ferocious beast, and said solemnly:
"Miss, please respect yourself!"
"Young Master~" the beauty began to pout.
The next second, the Yuyan Sword pierced through her abdomen.
With his clear mind of Taoism, Qiu Changtian was keenly aware, from the moment he approached the lake, that some kind of illusion was continuously attacking his mind.
Whether it is the figure in the lake, the singing, or even the clothes on the stone that constantly exude the thought of "Come and steal me", they are all part of the illusion attack.
Of course, he couldn't explain to the other party, "I'm sorry, I'm actually immune to illusion magic." He was just being cautious and on guard.
As a result, when the opponent saw that he was not fooled, he stopped pretending and directly tried to attack physically, forcing Qiu Changtian to launch a counterattack.
The beauty was pierced through the body by the Yuyan Sword, and immediately turned into a dream bubble and shattered.
Qiu Changtian continued to move forward along the lakeside, and he heard the devilish sounds gradually rising around him, soft murmurs, lingering and infatuated, enough to make one's fists clenched.
Unfortunately, there was only sound, but no human figure, so he couldn't deal with the other party quickly and efficiently like he did just now. He could only listen.
Fortunately, now that the synchronization value of the invincible character's setting is high enough, Qiu Changtian can fully activate the Dao Heart's Clear Mind, becoming immune to all the deceptive effects of these demonic sounds and turning a deaf ear to them.
Seeing that he was completely unmoved, those devilish words became more and more outrageous and provocative, almost unbearable to listen to.
Gradually, the voices of Xu Yinglian, An Zhisu and Shi Liuli appeared, and all kinds of ambiguous "good senior brother" and "dear junior brother" emerged one after another.
Qiu Changtian sneered in his heart: That’s it?
If I wanted to conquer them, I would have captured the real ones long ago!
He remained completely unmoved. The surrounding demonic sounds fell silent for a moment, and then they further simulated the sounds of Kunlun Mirror and Qingping Sword, and began to subtly seduce Qiu Changtian.
Qiu Changtian frowned, feeling very awkward when he thought of the mirror speaking in such a delicate tone.
In his sea of consciousness, the Kunlun Mirror was completely furious.
I am a lady in the palace of the Queen Mother of the West, standing on the mirror of the Yaochi Stage. When have I ever suffered such humiliation?
"Mirror flowers and water moons, shining in the void! This vulgar illusion, break it for me!"
Suddenly, as if there was a loud thunder, the countless beautiful and illusory voices that were just moaning around suddenly screamed and disappeared without a trace.
Qiu Changtian:?
"Ajing, what did you do?" he asked in surprise, and became secretly alert in his heart.
This broken mirror really still has a trick up its sleeve! It's exactly the same as the Qingping Sword, you have to squeeze it hard before it will produce oil!
"Nothing." Kunlun Jing said modestly, "This illusion is very noisy. I just helped you get through it faster."
"Oh, really?" Qiu Changtian sneered, "Then next time I encounter a crisis, please help me, Ajing."
"Of course." Kunlun Jingyan said insincerely, "You helped me find the Nuwa Stone to repair the sky, and I used the Mirror Flowers and Water Moon to help you obtain your peerless talent. We should have a relationship of mutual assistance."
"Of course." Qiu Changtian said with a laugh.
Before he could finish his words, the world began to spin.
The Sixth Demonic Gate had been breached, and Qiu Changtian was teleported to the next level by the Li Palace restriction.
Here, however, the sky is blue and the earth is yellow. The sky is clear and blue, and there are clouds all over the sky. In the distance, there are layers of mountains, and the surrounding trees are lush and green. There are streams running through them, and the sound of water is gurgling.
Birds sing and insects chirp one after another; fish leap up and water splashes everywhere.
Qiu Changtian: ...
He looked down at his reflection in the stream, and discovered that he had become a blue crane with white fur, a long neck, high feet and a black cap.
"A Jing!" Qiu Changtian called out in his heart, "Help me break the illusion!"
"This is not an illusion, it's a formation." Kunlun Mirror said in a low voice.
"Formation?" Qiu Changtian asked doubtfully, "Why have I never seen such a formation before?"
He subconsciously combed his feathers with his beak, then flapped his wings instinctively and flew into the air.
After flying low over the woods and circling several times, Qiu Changtian confirmed that the area nearby was just an ordinary mountain basin with trees and water, which was nothing out of the ordinary.
There is no trace of any formation at all.
Suddenly, he landed in an open space and saw a three-eyed raccoon running out from the woods.
The raccoon had soft golden fur, long whiskers and a pointed mouth, but it could stand upright on its two hind legs. It was obviously transformed from a human body.
"He is Luo Yan." Kunlun Mirror reminded, "The future Kunlun Mirror is in his possession!"
"Crikey! Crikey!" Qiu Changtian cried out loudly.
"Gu! Gu!" Luo Yan responded.
Although the two people are of different species and cannot communicate directly, fortunately the two Kunlun mirrors are able to communicate with each other and can transmit information to each other, so they can translate for them.
"He said." Kunlun Mirror said to Qiu Changtian, "This place simulates the Donghuang Demon Realm and is called the Land of Three Types of Beasts. The so-called three types of beasts are fish, birds, and beasts."
"The third type of animal land tests one's ability to 'follow the laws of nature'."
"To do this, we need to go to the place with the most spiritual energy nearby, and then simulate the monster beasts to eat wind and drink dew, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon."
Qiu Changtian was speechless after hearing this.
If the first three levels still have obvious traces of guiding the trial-takers, then these three types of beastly lands can be said to be the beginning of hell.
After the trial participants came in, they turned into beasts. There was no one to communicate with and no level guidance around them.
If there were no strategy, who would have thought of going to the place with the most spiritual energy? Oh, wait...
The three-eyed raccoon made a few more coos, and the Kunlun Mirror translated:
"Yes, you thought of it."
"For an ordinary person to pass the Qi Refining Stage, it would take at least 20 to 30 years of hard work, drawing Qi into the body every day and refining it."
"And the three types of beasts here are the key to the Ligong Secret Realm helping you skip the Qi Refining Stage."
