Chapter 750 Mirage
As time goes by, a red sun gradually rises in the sky, and the temperature gradually becomes warmer from the cold at night.
At noon that day, Ye Chunyang, who was counting his belongings with his eyes closed, suddenly heard a strange sound in his ears, and his eyes slowly opened.
The sloppy old man, Yu Lianshan, and Taoist Huanglong also seemed to be aware of it. They all raised their heads and looked forward. At this time, they saw a dazzling yellow light shooting down from the sky, which had a chain reaction with the desert basin below. Generally, it blooms with dazzling brilliance like fireworks.
Ye Chunyang squinted his eyes, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately saw the vision in front of him clearly. After the yellow light was projected, a huge light curtain suddenly appeared in the basin, and the outline of a cave inside was looming, seeming to be somewhere between reality and illusion, looking strange and strange.
And around this illusory cave, bursts of astonishing spiritual waves were emitted, and it seemed that something pulling the spiritual energy was constantly running in it. Under the influence of this wave, the magic power in the four people nearby boiled and boiled. .
The sloppy old Taoist and Ye Chunyang were fine, but Yu Lianshan and Taoist Huanglong couldn't help being shocked, and hurriedly urged their skills to suppress them to prevent the magic power from going wild. When they looked at the illusory cave like a mirage, the latter two already had somewhat ugly expressions on their faces.
"Hehe, Deadwood Immortal Mansion has indeed appeared."
The sloppy old Taoist had obviously seen such a scene more than once. He looked at the cave in the light curtain and showed an excited expression.
"Withered Wood Immortal Mansion, is this the barbaric ruins that Fellow Daoist Jin mentioned?" Yu Lianshan was also shocked by the scene in front of her and couldn't help but blurt out.
"Yes, Master Kumu was once our Nascent Soul cultivator in the Eastern Continent. Later he became a close friend with the great Lord of the Barbarians. After his longevity expired and he passed away in the wild desert of the Western Region, he left behind this cave. Master Kumu spent his whole life. He is skilled in the art of refining alchemy and making talismans. There are many ancient elixir recipes and treasures in the cave he left behind, and Haoyuan Dan is one of them." The sloppy old Taoist said with a low smile on his face.
Ye Chunyang looked along the light curtain, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes, but there was no sign of ecstasy. Instead, he fell into deep thought.
Yu Lianshan and fellow Taoist Huanglong looked at each other, with a hint of uncontrollable expression in their eyes, but it seemed that they had also discovered something, so they stopped thinking about breaking in immediately, and instead stopped outside the illusory cave and half-closed their eyes. These eyes kept looking around.
After a while, Yu Lianshan looked suspicious and said: "This cave seems to be nothing, does it really exist? Fellow Taoist Jin, you can't be mistaken, right?"
Taoist Huanglong frowned when he heard this. He dared to break into the Western Region to participate in this trip, which proved that he was a decisive person with sharp eyesight. His eyesight was naturally beyond the reach of others. Naturally, he also discovered the weirdness of this cave and immediately He questioned: "What Fairy Yu said is true. There is no real thing in this cave. It just looks like a mirage. How can fellow Taoist Jin be sure that this is the relic left by Master Dead Wood?"
Doubt also flashed in Ye Chunyang's eyes.
But after staring at the light screen for a moment, he seemed to see something. A look of surprise suddenly flashed across his face, and then he stood still and remained indifferent.
Seeing that the two of them were suspicious, the old Taoist didn't show any panic. Instead, he said with a chuckle: "Even if you two fellow Taoists don't ask, the old Taoist will make it clear to you. The reason why Master Dead Tree's cave is visible It is his brilliance that it looks so illusory. When I first came here, I thought this scene was an illusion. However, after several inspections, I found that this mirage was indeed the cave where he lived. It was only because of the barrier that it was covered. People look illusory and unreal, and they only appear under the strong sunlight, giving people the strange phenomenon of being in an illusion. "
"Fairy Yu, doesn't your sect specialize in illusion? As long as you use your magical power to detect it, you can know whether the old Taoist's statement is true or false."
The sloppy old man suddenly changed the topic and said to Yu Lianshan.
The two of them suddenly understood, and after hearing what the old man said, Yu Lianshan hesitated for a moment and immediately made a hand seal with her hands. Waves of illusory spiritual energy appeared around her body, and the light flashed in her clear eyes.
After half a cup of tea, the woman took back the magic formula thoughtfully, and then murmured something in an inaudible voice, with a look of shock and extreme surprise on her face.
"How is it? Can Fairy Yu break this illusion?" the sloppy old man asked calmly.
Yu Lianshan raised her head, her eyebrows furrowed, and she whispered with a solemn look on her face: "I didn't expect that there could be such a profound illusion in the world. Even if our sect is skilled in this, similar illusions are extremely rare. "
"Hey, it was because he discovered the power of the illusion here that the old Taoist specially invited the fairy to help. I wonder if the fairy is sure to break this illusion?" The sloppy old Taoist was not surprised by Yu Lianshan's shocking words. He said with an expectant look on his face.
Yu Lianshan didn't know what she was thinking about. After a moment, she said: "Although this technique is a bit complicated, I still have some confidence in breaking it. However, after my investigation, I found that this illusion is actually inside the barrier. It’s not external. To remove it, you must break the barrier first.”
After a pause, she thought again: "Besides, there are obviously several hidden magic circles behind the barrier. Even if I have the means to dispel the illusion, it will be in vain if I can't open the barrier and these hidden magic circles."
Having said these words, Yu Lianshan herself felt a little strange. Most people build caves first with protective magic circles, then illusions, and then with barriers. However, here the opposite is done, with the barrier outside, and then the barrier. Covered by illusions and magic circles, it is really elusive.
"So it was the barrier in front and the illusion behind?" The sloppy old Taoist looked thoughtful when he heard this, and finally showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, saying: "No wonder I couldn't comprehend it for a long time. I always thought that I had to remove the illusion before I could see the whole picture of the fairy palace. It seems that I was wrong from the beginning, but the fairy doesn't need to worry. This time, I invited fellow Taoist Ye and fellow Taoist Huang to deal with this kind of thing."
The old Taoist chuckled and looked at Ye Chunyang and Taoist Huanglong.
"I have personally seen Daoist Fellow Ye's ability to break through boundaries. Daoist Fellow's flying sword can even break through the secret boundary of the Giant Spirit Sect. I think it should be no problem for him to deal with this place. Daoist Fellow Huang is a famous master of formations in the casual cultivation world. He can see any hidden formations at a glance."
After the old Taoist said this, Yu Lianshan seemed to have heard it before and nothing changed. But Ye Chunyang's heart moved slightly. He looked at the Taoist Huanglong with surprise. He didn't expect that this person was actually a master of formations.
It is well known that studying formations is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and its complexity is unimaginable. If you want to achieve something in formations, your own cultivation will definitely fall behind. If this Taoist Huanglong was in the mana stage or foundation building stage, Ye Chunyang might not be surprised, but this person has reached the Jindan stage, and he is a casual cultivator. This is not something that can be done by aptitude. Apart from other things, even Mingrong relied on the resources of Feixian Sect to reach the late stage of mana. This person can reach such a level. I think there must be some other adventure?
Ye Chunyang guessed all about the cultivation history of Taoist Huanglong in a flash.
Just as he thought, Taoist Huanglong did not specialize in formations in his early years, but practiced immortal cultivation like other cultivators. Later, by chance, he got a book on formations, which made him successful in this field. At this moment, he felt refreshed when he heard the sloppy old Taoist flatter him.
He took a step forward proudly and said, "Fairy Yu, don't worry. As long as you can enter this withered wood fairy mansion, the formations inside are a piece of cake for Huang. Just follow me and I guarantee that you can get the recipe of Haoyuan Pill safely and worry-free."
Yu Lianshan pursed her lips and ignored Taoist Huanglong's attentive behavior. Such an indifferent behavior naturally made Taoist Huanglong's face stiffen.
She paused for a moment, turned to look at Ye Chunyang, and said with a bright smile: "The first step to enter the cave is to break the barrier. I heard from Fellow Daoist Jin that Fellow Daoist Ye seems to have magical powers that others cannot match. I am very curious about this. I am afraid I will have to trouble you a lot this time."
Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed, and he looked at the light curtain outside the Dead Wood Immortal Mansion for a long time before replying slowly: "In this case, I will show you something!"
While speaking, he walked forward slowly, and a fire disc spun out of his sleeve. Yu Lianshan was about to say something, but a look of surprise suddenly flashed across her face.
Looking carefully, the fire light turned out to be a giant sword shining with rainbow light, exuding a sharp breath of cutting a throat. As soon as Ye Chunyang sacrificed it, he immediately pinched his hands, and the light on the giant sword increased greatly. Then he rubbed his hands and raised them, and the sword energy dispersed, turning into thousands of hanging swords densely packed into a sword formation in the sky.
"This man has forged such a powerful flying sword, and this sword formation..." Yu Lianshan stared at the dazzling three thousand sword formations activated by Ye Chunyang, and couldn't help but think of the scene when she fought with the other party at Pansha Peak a few days ago, and a chill rose in her heart for no reason.
If the other party had released this flying sword at that time, the result would probably be unpredictable.
Taoist Huanglong and the sloppy old Taoist also flashed different expressions under this huge sword formation.
Even though he had seen Ye Chunyang use the sword formation to break the barrier, the sloppy old Taoist still squinted his eyes at this moment, revealing a bit of inexplicable color. And Taoist Huanglong, under the cover of Ye Chunyang's sword formation, a trace of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. Even if he quickly recovered as usual, the solemnity in his heart could not be reduced at all.
As a casual cultivator, he knew the difficulty of practicing flying swords, not to mention the spiritual power required to control such a large sword formation with flying swords was beyond imagination. Ye Chunyang's move shocked even the cultivators of the same level.
Ye Chunyang did not care about the expressions of the three people. After the three thousand sword essences were condensed, he slashed at the barrier on the Dead Wood Immortal Mansion without hesitation. Suddenly, the dense rain of swords fell like meteors, all hitting the light curtain, making bursts of deafening roars, and countless lights splashed out.
