The dim blood moon illuminates the outline of a mortal town.
The streets were empty. Xiang Sheng stood under the town's archway, his eyes sweeping over the houses with blood-red edges.
This was obviously an illusion created by the giant snake, but it was exactly the same as the locust tree demon.
She originally thought that illusion was the locust tree demon's innate talent, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Senior, this illusion is very strange."
Pei Shi reminded them, "Ordinary illusions can be easily broken with sword intent. But the illusions created by these demons are incredibly real. Even when the five of us used our full sword intent, we couldn't affect them at all."
Lin Qi heard Pei Shi talk about sword intent and couldn't help asking, "Fellow Daoist, we saw the token of the Myriad Veins Sword Sect in the illusion before. Could it be that you are really..."
Pei Shi didn't know the relationship between Lin Qi and Xiang Sheng. Upon hearing this, he didn't dare to neglect it and quickly replied, "Daoyou is right. I am indeed from the Wanmai Sword Sect and a true disciple of the Xuanjian Vein. My name is Pei Shi."
Lin Qi's eyes widened as soon as these words came out. "Really?! This is the first time I've seen a living disciple from the three major sects!"
"Junior brother, don't be rude!"
Yan Feipeng took a deep breath and then clasped his hands together and said, "I am new to the world of cultivation and do not know the etiquette. I hope Pei Zhenchuan will forgive me."
Pei Shi waved his hand, signaling him not to worry. Seeing Xiang Sheng walking towards the town, he hurriedly limped to catch up, his tone slightly anxious:
“Senior, I still have four junior brothers and sisters in the sacrificial pit. The snake demon might devour them to recover from its injuries.
Senior, please break the illusion and rescue them as soon as possible. My Wanmai Sword Sect will reward you handsomely in the future!"
"No need for a big reward."
Xiang Sheng turned back to look at Pei Shi and ordered calmly, "Take Lin Qi and the other two and stay as far away as possible. Hold on to the black tortoise armor and protect yourselves."
Although the words were spoken plainly, Pei Shi's heart trembled when he heard them. He nodded quickly and fled with Lin Qi and the other two. They walked all the way to the edge of the Fantasy Town before stopping and looking into the town with anticipation.
The senior has a strong physique, he should be a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, but he also has a strong sword spirit, and is even good at extremely profound restrictions.
When had such a figure appeared in the world of cultivation? He had never heard of him before.
I really don’t know what method the senior will use to break this difficult illusion.
Xiang Sheng walked in the town, but was not in a hurry to break the illusion.
The reality of this illusion is no different from the one set by the locust tree demon, but it has a fatal flaw.
She followed her memory and came to a side road.
What came into view was a dense group of mortals, frantically tearing at an invisible forbidden barrier.
Xiang Sheng walked to the front of the barrier, stretched out her hand and touched the surface, and countless forbidden runes spread out from her fingertips.
The originally shaky barrier immediately became stable again after the new runes were integrated into it. Xiang Sheng's consciousness also spread along with the runes and soon extended beyond the illusion.
This sight made her frown.
The giant snake disappeared again.
The Hidden Spirit Shuttle was still shuttling through the void. If the giant snake demon hid in the interlayer of space, she could still sense it. But now, there was not even a trace of the snake demon in the interlayer of space.
The entrance to the outside of the valley has been blocked by her with a forbidden barrier. How did the giant snake demon escape?
Snap!
A crack suddenly appeared at the edge of the illusion where the restriction was embedded, revealing the outside world.
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes.
It seems that the giant snake really escaped.
Without the giant snake's control, this illusion became like water without a source. Even if no one interfered, it would collapse on its own in an hour at most.
Xiang Sheng naturally wouldn't wait for an hour.
She stretched out her hand and covered the crack. On the bridge of her flesh, her chakra slowly rotated. A golden shadow immediately flashed in her eyes, and a domineering destiny burst out instantly, sweeping across the world!
The edge of illusion.
Pei Shi was staring at the black tortoise shell in his hand in a daze, when he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, as if a huge rock had fallen from the sky and pressed on his heart, causing him to stagger and the black tortoise shell almost flew out of his hand.
Lin Qi and Yan Feipeng were even more unbearable. They were shocked to the point of bleeding from all seven orifices. Their eyes rolled back and they fainted on the ground.
Pei Shi quickly leaned over to check on the two of them. Seeing that they had just fainted, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked up in the direction of Xiang Sheng with shock in his eyes.
"Is this... the pressure of the spirit?"
He knew clearly that the power of the spirit in the Spirit Transformation Stage was extremely oppressive to low-level cultivators.
But he was in the late stage of out-of-body experience, and was only one step away from the complete transformation of his soul. Even if he had to withstand the pressure of his soul head-on at close range, he shouldn't have been so unbearable.
What's more, he was very far away from Xiang Sheng at the moment, with a black tortoise shell between them.
If I didn't have this black tortoise shell...
Pei Shi lowered his head and glanced at Lin Qi and the other man, took a deep breath, and a deep awe appeared in his eyes. He didn't dare to have any thoughts of exploring the other party's cultivation.
This overwhelming and domineering pressure from his soul alone was enough to make him regard the other party as a palace master-level figure.
In the sect, these true disciples were not qualified to see the hall master directly. But now that they were in such a dangerous situation, they were able to receive the personal rescue from the hall master.
"This time, I'm really lucky."
Pei Shi was feeling emotional when he suddenly heard a series of "click" sounds in his ears.
He looked up and saw that the illusory sky that seemed indestructible in his eyes had shattered into a spider web.
Crash——
The illusion shattered, revealing the original valley.
As the fragments rolled back, Xiang Sheng walked slowly towards him, his expression as calm as ever.
"Let's go and rescue your four fellow disciples."
