Chapter 35 The Sea of Illusions
Chapter 35 The Sea of Illusions
"Qi Yuan, run! The Blood Demon King is coming! He wants to kill all of us Origin Star people!"
The old clan chief roared with a sorrowful expression.
"This illusion is too fake!"
Qi Yuan shook his head. "Blood Demon King, I'm already being lenient by not going after him. Would he dare to come looking for me?"
The illusion shattered, and Qi Yuan flew towards the second island without pausing.
Deep within the Illusionary Sea, an old man with a long beard turned his gaze toward Qi Yuan.
"Two of the most outstanding geniuses of this year have come to challenge the Illusionary Sea."
Nine Swords conquered the 10th island, their willpower comparable to that of ordinary immortals.
Qi Yuan is even more talented than the Nine Swords. I wonder which level he can reach?
Many important figures favor Qi Yuan.
However, the Illusionary Sea tests one's soul and will, and has little to do with one's talent in the laws of nature. I wonder if he can get through the 10th island?
Before long, Qi Yuan flew towards the third island.
Then came the fourth, the fifth...
"He's already reached the 10th island so quickly?"
The guardian couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
"Hahaha, Qi Yuan, succumb, become my slave!"
Within the illusion, an immortal god from another race laughed wildly.
His divine soul power continuously burrowed into Qi Yuan's sea of consciousness, attempting to enslave him.
Qi Yuan was in dire straits.
"A mere illusion, how could it possibly deceive my mind? Break!"
With a roar in his heart, Qi Yuan broke through the illusion and flew towards the 11th island.
"They broke through the Immortal-level Soul Illusion so quickly!"
The guardian suddenly stood up and looked at Qi Yuan in disbelief.
Qi Yuan didn't stop at all; the illusions of each island were quickly broken apart, and he kept moving towards the next island.
"The 14th, the 15th, the 16th..."
The guardian's eyes widened suddenly.
"This...this is already a soul illusion at the King level!"
He's really going to cause a major upheaval!
No! I must report this to higher-ups immediately!
……
In the City of Chaos.
Upon seeing the urgent email from the Guardian, the Shadow Monarch, who was in charge of intelligence in the virtual universe, suddenly stood up.
"Ehuyetor, immediately seal off the news of Qi Yuan's adventure in the Illusionary Sea, and do not let it leak to anyone!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Shadow Monarch immediately got up and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion.
After receiving the message, he didn't bother to continue his journey and teleported into the Chaos Ruins.
Within the vast and boundless Chaos Ruins, piles of powerful corpses lay, radiating an astonishing aura.
The Lord of Chaos City turned to look at him, his tranquil eyes seemingly containing the starry sky, which immediately calmed his excited emotions.
"Shadow, you rushed here. What terrible thing happened?"
"Greetings to the great Lord of Chaos City."
The Shadow Lord bowed respectfully.
"Qi Yuan, the newly accepted disciple of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, is currently venturing into the Illusionary Sea."
He has now traversed 17 islands and seems to still have energy to spare.
"A genius who has conquered the 17th island of the Illusionary Sea at a cosmic level—how many eras have we seen such a prodigy!"
Even the Lord of Chaos City showed a hint of surprise on his face.
The stronger a person is, the more they understand the importance of mindset and willpower.
Talent can be enhanced with precious treasures, but willpower can only be honed slowly over endless time.
If a person has a strong enough mindset and will, even if their talent is slightly lacking, they can gradually be cultivated into a strong person.
However, without sufficient mental fortitude and willpower, even the greatest talent will eventually reach a bottleneck.
Like those special life forms, they can easily become immortal.
But how many of them ultimately become revered beings, or even masters of the universe?
On the contrary, a much higher proportion of ordinary beings who initially showed no talent eventually became unparalleled powerhouses after endless trials and tribulations.
Moreover, Qi Yuan's talent is not bad at all; on the contrary, it is very, very high.
Even his most beloved youngest disciple, Kedi, is not necessarily more talented than Qi Yuan.
Thinking of this, the Lord of Chaos City could no longer sit still.
He immediately logged into the virtual universe and arrived at the Illusionary Sea Plane.
"Greetings, Lord of Chaos City!"
The guardian Ehuyetor was taken aback and respectfully prostrated himself on the ground.
"Hmm, have we reached the 18th island yet?"
The Lord of Chaos City's gaze pierced through the layers of barriers, looking at Qi Yuan, who was currently in the illusion.
The guardian said, "Yes, he progressed through the levels at lightning speed, stopping at almost every island without stopping."
It only started to slow down after reaching the 17th island.
The Lord of Chaos waved his hand and said, "You may leave."
What happened today must not be mentioned to anyone, understand?
"Your subordinate understands and will certainly remember your instructions!"
He respectfully withdrew.
The Lord of Chaos City directly used his virtual universe authority to temporarily seal off the Illusionary Sea.
At that moment, a strange and eerie aura suddenly spread out.
The black mist spread like venomous snakes.
boom!
A crimson light emanated from the Lord of Chaos City, standing in stark contrast to the black mist.
"Junior brother, what brings you here?"
tread!tread!tread!
Footsteps sounded.
A man dressed in black armor and wearing a black cloak walked out from the black mist.
His skin was incredibly smooth, and his bald head was covered with dark, mysterious patterns.
His eyes were sinister, like a venomous snake lurking in the darkness.
He was none other than the second junior brother of the Chaos City Lord, the Lord of Darkness.
"My disciple has been born, so naturally I have come."
"You want to take Qi Yuan as your disciple?"
"Indeed. His willpower is so strong that he is perfectly suited to inherit his teacher's Phantom Warrior legacy."
The sinister voice of the Lord of Darkness rang out.
"And I am the only illusionist among the teacher's disciples, so it is just right for me to teach him."
The Lord of Chaos City thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
But he still advised, "He is too weak now; the guidance of the Dry Witch is enough."
"Once he emerges from the Illusionary Sea, set a test for him and accept him as a disciple."
"There's no need to go through all that trouble."
The Lord of Darkness's icy voice rang out, "Since he has already demonstrated such talent, why bother setting up any more tests!"
"The Lord of the Universe cannot be so hasty in accepting disciples."
The Lord of Chaos City retorted.
"The necessary tests still need to be tested."
Otherwise, if he becomes arrogant and slackens his efforts, wouldn't that ruin a peerless genius?
"Senior brother, do you know why I've trained a disciple of the Lord of the Universe, while you haven't?"
The Lord of Darkness's words struck a chord deep within.
"You're just too conventional!"
Everything must be done fairly and according to the rules.
"If you had given Koti one or two treasures for protection back then, he wouldn't have perished so completely!"
"Koti..."
The Lord of Chaos City couldn't suppress his anger when he thought of his most outstanding young disciple.
"Am I really wrong?"
he murmured.
The Lord of Darkness looked at Qi Yuan, whose eyes shone like stars as he flew out of the 18th island and stepped into the 19th island.
"Hahaha, very good, as expected of my disciple, the Lord of Darkness!"
The Dark Lord's laughter startled the Chaos City Lord from his reverie.
