Past, future.
The person in front of me has higher stats than me, and the weapon in their hand is also gradually changing.
The Heavenly Balance in its hand flows with vibrant colors.
Lu Cang could sense that this was the fearless Tian Zhijun, but also very different.
This layer of the Illusionary Ruins is a space similar to imagination.
It is not necessary to conform to the rules of the fantasy world.
There's no need to follow any uniqueness or strange special constraints.
Just like a person's imagination and dreams.
There is no need to abide by the laws of reality.
What's even stranger is... that we don't know what it means.
It's hard to guess what this is trying to express.
What's the point?
A rift!
boom!
A dazzling array of colors exploded in front of Lu Cang!
Lu Cang's same boundary rift could not withstand it.
However, this level of attack was not enough to cause any real damage to Lu Cang.
Both of them were perfect beings, capable of instantly recovering from all injuries and restoring all their magic power...
As long as you're not instantly killed, you can rise again!
He was only slightly stronger numerically, but that wasn't enough to defeat Lu Cang.
But soon, the creature in front of them gained even more momentum!
In an instant, it completely disappeared!
disappear?
Lu Cang also disappeared at the same time!
However, given Lu Cang's current life form, he could sense even if Lu Cang disappeared! He relied on his intuition!
However, intuition gave no warning.
Boom!
Lu Cang's perfect and sturdy body was cracked open.
The other person accidentally used the wrong broken knife and cut themselves.
They even created weaknesses in their own bodies where there were none.
"Assassination, the power of a false god."
Lu Cang's body was quickly repaired.
Activate Zuya's power, and he transforms into a perfect pure gold statue on the spot.

[LV:5 Enhancement - Gain maximum health and restore an equal amount of health; cooldown reduced to 0.2 seconds.]
[LV: 11 Enhancement - No cooldown, can be turned on and off at any time.]
-----------------
when!
A metallic clang rang out!
These attacks hit Lu Cang, but no longer had any effect.
Zuya has acquired more than one new skill.
This active freezing effect is an active invulnerability that can be controlled at any time.
If used properly, it can be activated the moment the enemy is hit and deactivated when the enemy loses their offensive power.
Whew~
When Lu Cang activated his golden body.
The other party also reappeared from its vanished state, appearing thirty steps away from Lu Cang.
The color is different from that of Lu Cang today.
It has turned a vibrant red.
[The Power of the False God]
A power that could shake the very fabric of space emanated from its body!
It hasn't even made contact with Lu Cang yet.
Lu Cang felt as if hundreds of planets were pressing down on his body. The pure power seemed to have materialized and flowed, turning into red air currents that moved with him.
"You... are me in the future."
Lu Cang is unable to move or use his skills.
But there is still the will to act.
This golden body, if combined with mental attacks, is a disgusting tactic.
The gameplay in the Illusionary Realm is diverse; it's not a matter of sticking to just one style of play with a single skill.
Just like there are non-charged flow and extended charge flow.
"Um."
It actually responded.
They hadn't exchanged a single word during the entire battle.
when!
As he walked toward Lu Cang.
The greatsword in its hand gradually transformed into a longbow with eyes on it called "Misilishu."
However, in its hand, the eyes of this longbow were closed, unlike the lively eyes of the one in Xiumi's hand, which looked around.
[The Bow and the Position of the God of Observation]
[Enchantment and Enhancement of Mithril]
Bang!
In that very instant!
Lu Cang has taken action!
Although in the present world, neither the [Ultimate Path Unity Power] nor the [Transcendence - Ultimate Breakthrough] has completed its cooldown.
However, the rules of the outside world are not followed in the Illusionary Ruins.
After entering the Illusionary Ruins, Lu Cang had already recovered to his full strength.
Ultimately, all paths lead to oneness!
All paths have been reached!
The moment he charged out, Lu Cang was covered in countless colors, wielding a heavy sword that was as colorful as a starry river, and pressed down on the creature in front of him at top speed!
Tens of thousands of eight-star skills bloomed simultaneously in an instant!
"It's no use."
when!
Crackling sounds! Boom! Ding-dong—
crackling sound—
Meteor, storm, lightning, poison, curse, calamity, slash, combo!
It was impossible to tell how many attacks were simultaneously raining down on it.
But it simply held a bow in one hand and stretched its arms out to the sky!
All those attacks that landed were completely nullified.
Extreme anger!
Break through with all your might!
But then!
Lu Cang then swung down with a slash that trailed a long, fiery tail!
boom!
The blow landed squarely on its head!
It has no weaknesses.
Because it is also perfect, Lu Cang can only directly confront it head-on!
However, the creature before him, just like Lu Cang had just done, transformed into a golden sculpture and completely withstood the attack! Its body remained completely unharmed!
[Guardian Deity Position - False God's Power]
He took Lu Cang's nine-star skill head-on.
Normally, it's impossible for nothing to happen.
However, if it is the power of a false god guarding a divine position, then that is another matter.
"It's useless, it's useless, it's useless!"
"Completely useless."
"alright."
"Now it's my turn."
It was seen that its right hand tightly grasped the Mithril, which was radiating brilliant light.
Speaking of which, the Mithril in its hand also radiated a brilliant light, just like the Heavenly Balance it had just held.
It was at extremely close range, with Lu Cang's heavy sword pressing down on its head.
He then raised his bow towards Lu Cang.
【The last crimson glow at the end of the twilight era (Nine Stars)】
Lu Cang's pupils contracted when he saw the thin red arrow condensing on the longbow!
not good!
Lu Cang quickly changed his tactics, trying to counter the skill it had used.
However, the divine authority of Chaos Anomaly has already been distorted by the opponent, so we can only use other ways to counter it.
But the creature in front of him was clearly faster than himself.
As Lu Cang tried to dismantle it, it simultaneously caused chaos and distortion, destroying all of Lu Cang's skills.
A thought flashed through Lu Cang's mind.
"Now, you are going to die."
"Do you have any last words?"
Lu Cang didn't respond; he just kept trying to disassemble it!
And just as it was about to unleash that attack!
Snap—
The creature before my eyes vanished into nothingness.
They appeared abruptly and disappeared abruptly.
"Congratulations."
"You passed."
clatter--
A figure suddenly appeared from nothingness, appearing so abruptly without any warning.
The person who appeared this time was still in the form of Lotte.
Her long twin ponytails trailed behind her, and a sly smile appeared in her eyes.
"Yeah."
Lu Cang withdrew all his skills, as if he had never experienced the life-or-death moment just now.
"It was a truly chaotic experience."
Lu Cang commented.
"They're all meaningless things, they can't even be considered a test."
But Lotte in front of her chuckled softly, "Hehe, who said this is a test... Nothing is necessarily meaningful."
"It might just be a prank."
"Chaos is the essence of the world, isn't it? Before the world was created, it was chaos. You, who were in the primordial chaos, shouldn't know this, right?"
As Luo Ti spoke, she transformed back into Lu Cang during his first, more naive incarnation.
He spoke in the same voice as Lu Cang.
"In any case, you can move on now."
"We welcome all visitors here, regardless of how you got here, whether you are an uninvited guest, or whether you entered through legitimate means or illegitimate means."
"Did you just think you were going to die, or that you wouldn't be able to pass this level's 'test'?"
The other party's words seemed inexplicable, but Lu Cang read a deeper meaning into them.
"You mean, it's completely meaningless?"
"Yes, that's right."
Have you ever heard of anyone who couldn't pass through the first level of the Illusionary Ruins?
Lu Cang frowned slightly.
In fact, Lu Cang didn't know much about the Illusionary Ruins.
Ultimately, the Illusionary Ruins is also a forbidden zone.
However, this restricted area is very special.
Very few people have ever come in.
However, what makes this Illusionary Ruins special is that anyone who enters from this restricted area can also leave it.
It can be considered a relatively mild restricted area.
Of course, this only applies to the first two floors.
Even so, no more than twenty beings have actually entered the Illusionary Ruins. It is extremely difficult to obtain information from such a small population and to summarize the patterns of the Illusionary Ruins.
Lu Cang learned about the Illusionary Ruins, which meant he had been inside once.
And obtaining information from others is yet another instance.
Indeed, I passed through the first level of the Illusionary Ruins every time.
The intelligence summary is as follows.
The first level, the Illusory Ruins, targets the human mind, revealing a person's past experiences.
We must find a way to break this deadlock, just as we would interpret a dream.
If you find the right method, you'll have the opportunity to pass through the first level and enter the next level.
Lu Cang did not answer directly, but instead asked in return: "You mean, everyone can pass through the first level of the Illusionary Ruins?"
"Hehe, you guessed right."
"Everyone can!"
"Whether alive or dead, the best way to enter the next level of the Illusionary Ruins is to kill yourself."
"If we do that, there's a 99% chance we'll go straight to the next level."
"Ninety-nine percent?"
"And there's still 0.1," Lu Cang asked.
"There's also a 0.1% chance that you might find yourself resurrected after dying, still on the first floor, and experiencing the same things again."
"However, people who experience such things often possess qualities related to death and reincarnation."
"Although you also have it, it hasn't happened to you."
Lu Cang looked at his own youthful self in front of him.
You can't completely trust what this person says.
Because this is still the first level of the Illusionary Ruins, what happens here is like a dream, and may vanish in the blink of an eye.
It is illusory and elusive, completely beyond our reach.
The people here don't really distinguish between believing and not believing what they say.
The other party seemed to have also sensed Lu Cang's distrust.
He covered the back of his head and said, "Anyway, I've already said what I wanted to say."
Whether you believe it or not is your business.
"You can go to the next level now."
"But thank you anyway, you showed me an interesting show."
"By the way... don't completely disbelieve what happens here. Perhaps everything you see is based on real events."
A chaotic passage opened up before Lu Cang.
Lu Cang glanced at Lu Cang in his youthful days.
"There's one more question."
"Then what are you?"
Lu Cang did not intend to enter the next level in a daze. He would not let go of such an opportunity to gather intelligence.
"I……"
The creature in front of me changed its appearance again.
It became Neherkato.
"How would I know? Perhaps I'm just a little sprite to guide you."
"Why don't you treat me like an NPC specifically for giving directions, darling?"
Hearing the other person speak to him using Nehercato's face and body in this way, Lu Cang felt a wave of nausea.
However, there is no doubt about it.
The thing in front of me knows a lot about me.
Even Tish's secrets couldn't be kept hidden.
As Lu Cang thought this, the creature in front of him transformed back into Tish's appearance.
Even the appearance of the hidden gods can be directly imitated and manifested.
Even in this dreamlike space, it is enough to demonstrate its status.
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Cang...
Then another question was posed: "Are you a proponent of zeroing out or a proponent of continuing the legacy?"
"Tish" pointed to her face: "Me?"
He said in a slightly silent tone, "I'm from the egg yolk pie family."
"I don't like too many meaningless things; I only like interesting things."
"God has lived long enough. What's the point of resetting to zero or not? How could mortals, who only live for a few hundred years before their time comes, possibly consider such profound questions?"
Upon hearing the other party's reply, Lu Cang said, "Only summer insects don't need to consider winter."
"But as 'human beings,' we should consider how to keep warm in winter, how to hunt, and how to get through winter and welcome spring."
"Tish" covered her ears and shook her head: "I won't listen, I won't listen."
It then transformed into the form of Roya: "Haha~ I have absolutely no interest in your kind of reasoning. We each have our own beliefs, and all this talk about zeroing out is meaningless."
"I still only like things that are fun."
"Honestly, are you leaving or not? I can't wait to see you go to the next floor."
Lu Cang stared at Luo Ya in front of him.
"Still trying to get information out of me?"
"No way!"
puff!
He uttered just one sentence, and then completely turned into a wisp of gas and disappeared.
Ha, that really has Roja's style.
weird.
The person who could be used to extract information simply vanished. Lu Cang stared at the spot where he disappeared and murmured, "Was it meaningless?"
All that remained before me was a chaotic portal.
Lu Cang had no choice but to walk towards the teleportation portal.
