Time flies, and the short three days passed in a flash, as if swept away silently by the Forgotten River.
Su Rui hid in the thunder space formed by the Black Mountain Divine Seal, immersed in hard practice, and unexpectedly broke through the "Original Mirage Sutra" to a higher level in one breath! Not only that, he also successfully condensed a mirage dragon phantom in the Yuan Mirage illusion.
Even if Su Rui spent thousands of years refining the mirage dragon skeleton alone, it would be difficult for him to develop such magical powers.
Fortunately, when the Red Dragon cultivated the body of a true dragon here, he left behind many precious things: the blood, flesh and skin left over from the Red Dragon's own transformation; and the broken body of the Blue Chi and a small part of the dragon essence contained in it.
These treasures, combined with the Mirage Dragon skeleton in his hands and the Mirage Dragon Pearl he had previously acquired, ultimately allowed him to condense a Mirage Dragon avatar within the Primordial Mirage Realm. This Mirage Dragon avatar was unique—it didn't resemble a pure Mirage Dragon, but rather a hybrid of a Mirage Dragon and a Blue Chi. It had the massive body of a Blue Chi, the red hairs of a Mirage Dragon's back, and the mirage aura it exuded carried a hint of chill.
However, these details are irrelevant. The real key is that the mirage dragon body that Su Rui successfully refined can not only release a higher level of mirage energy, but also perform more powerful illusions.
As for whether he could deceive the White Bone God, Su Rui wasn't entirely sure. After all, the White Bone God was a notorious Yuanshen Zhenren, and he must have mastered some mysterious and strange secrets that could trace the root of the truth. If he could see through the illusion and magic with just one glance, it wouldn't be surprising!
After transforming into the mirage dragon, Su Rui simply wandered around in the thunder space and personally experienced the wonderful feeling of becoming a mirage dragon.
He absolutely wouldn't dare be so reckless as to allow the mirage dragon to materialize directly in the Forgotten River. Imagine if a dragon inexplicably appeared in the Forgotten River. Wouldn't that be incredibly unbelievable? After all, there weren't even ordinary fish or shrimp here. If a mirage dragon truly appeared there, wouldn't that clearly tell the White Bone God that there was a hidden secret?
After returning the mirage dragon to the Primordial Mirage, Su Rui unhesitatingly stepped out of the Black Mountain Divine Seal's lightning dimension. However, something unexpected happened—after a brief moment, he was forced to retreat back into the lightning dimension. At this moment, the Black Mountain Divine Seal was somehow picked up by a white skeleton emitting an eerie aura and carried into a mysterious body of water.
When Su Rui walked out of the Thunder Space again, as soon as his feet touched the freezing cold sea water, he was shocked to find that the water in this area could devour and dissolve his true energy!
Even more terrifying was the feeling of an irresistible suction force hidden in the water, as if it was dragging him into some unfathomable, unknown place. Faced with such a terrifying and abnormal suction force, Su Rui felt an unprecedented panic and fear surge in his heart.
In a panic, Su Rui acted decisively, desperately knocking the Black Mountain Divine Seal from the skeleton's grasp to prevent it from dragging him towards the dangerous land. Then, at lightning speed, he fled back to the Thunder Dimension, seeking temporary refuge. At this moment, Xiao Tu's nervous, deep voice suddenly echoed in Su Rui's mind: "Master, this place is very likely the legendary Sea of Samsara!"
"Sea of Samsara?" Hearing this unfamiliar word, Su Rui couldn't help but feel puzzled and confused.
"The Sea of Samsara has a special name in the mortal world—the Sea of Bitterness! According to legend, the Sea of Samsara contains the Six Paths of Reincarnation. This is where all living beings in heaven and earth are reborn after death! This is a mysterious realm where life and death intersect. For the human world, this place is extremely crucial. Without the Six Paths of Reincarnation, time and space would regress to ancient times, a time when ghosts outnumbered humans and resentment was thicker than the vitality of heaven and earth.
To rectify this situation, after the founding of the ancient Heavenly Court, the Netherworld was established, with ten Yama Lords leading the charge, to oversee the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Their primary mission was to protect this vital land and ensure the smooth functioning of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Even in modern times, with the Netherworld's underworld crumbling and the rise of powerful figures, this place remains a sacred site, jointly protected by all races and factions. No one dares to challenge or invade it lightly, knowing that if the Six Paths of Reincarnation were disrupted, the entire universe would plunge into endless chaos and disaster. Therefore, this place has always maintained a relative peace, but the hidden struggle never ceases..."
"In other words, this place is full of dangers, but it is also extremely important!"
Xiaotu explained solemnly. At this moment, Su Rui suddenly noticed that the Black Mountain Divine Seal began to move slowly again, as if being carried by the undercurrent and mud on the seabed, drifting towards the direction that was most likely one of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Who could possibly know what kind of misfortune would await him after entering the cycle of reincarnation within the Black Mountain Divine Seal? Su Rui, unsure, naturally didn't dare take the risk! He knew he couldn't hide any longer, so he made a decisive move and stepped out of the Thunder Dimension once again.
However, what he did not expect was that the Five Elements Escape Technique, which had been so effective in other places, became extremely slow in the Sea of Samsara, even worse than in the Forgetful River, and was completely unable to escape the powerful suction of Samsara!
Since the human body alone was unable to resist the force of samsara, would transforming into a Tongbi divine ape offer a glimmer of hope? But to Su Rui's astonishment, after transforming into the Tongbi divine ape, he discovered that not only was his demonic body completely suppressed by the bitter sea water, but the suction of samsara even became stronger.
This shock was so great that Su Rui quickly returned to human form.
After a brief thought, Su Rui summoned the Mirage Dragon Body out of the Yuan Shen Illusion again and put on the Mirage Dragon Body's vest.
This time, he clearly felt the pull from the mysterious wheel of reincarnation greatly reduced. It turned out that not only did the rivers, lakes, and seas of the mortal world favor the dragon race, but even this sea of suffering showed special favor to them!
It’s so unfair!
Since the mirage dragon's phantom body could give him the opportunity to escape from the sea of suffering, Su Rui did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately put away the Black Mountain Divine Seal and urged the mirage energy to prepare to leave the sea of reincarnation. He planned to go ashore and then look for a way to leave the underworld.
However, what was unexpected was that he had just walked less than a mile when suddenly a transparent thin rope fell from the sky and accurately fell into the huge mouth of his mirage dragon body.
There was no time to dodge. The thin rope was as fast as lightning, tightly wrapped around the mouth of the mirage dragon, and then burst out with earth-shaking power, like a meteorite, pulling Su Rui out of the sea of suffering.
At this moment, Su Rui felt like a real fish. Apart from struggling uselessly, he had no strength to resist at all.
