The mysterious and ancient ice palace was clearly right in front of him, but even after Ye Xuan stepped through the opened ice door for a long time, he was still unable to reach the center of the ice palace. He was still pacing back and forth outside the palace.
This feeling was as if the ice palace in front of him was in a completely different world from him.
This result undoubtedly caused Ye Xuan's expression to become especially solemn and unsightly. It was obvious that obtaining the Dragon Emperor's inheritance wasn't as simple as winning the Conferred God Battle. After entering the Zero Degree Space, one still had to go through all sorts of tests.
After a series of attempts, Ye Xuan was still unable to step into the ice palace. In the end, he could only stop and fall into a long silence.
"Could it be that what I see in front of me is an illusion?"
At this moment, Ye Xuan's eyes flashed. With a thought, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes quietly opened.
However, even if he activated the Ice and Fire Yin Yang, the scene before his eyes still didn't change, causing Ye Xuan to frown.
He looked at the stairs leading to the ice palace and pondered for a moment before leaving a mark on the ground. Then, he took a step forward and turned around to look at the mark. He discovered that there was indeed a step between him and the mark. In other words, everything in front of him wasn't an illusion?
However, why was he still unable to reach the ice palace after walking for so long? He even felt that the distance between them hadn't shortened at all?
Could it be that this was another test?
And this seemed to be a test of perseverance and determination?
If that was the case, then he could only rely on perseverance and determination to solve it. There was no other solution.
At this moment, Ye Xuan once again quickly climbed the stairs that led to the ice palace.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, three days had quietly slipped away.
Ye Xuan was still unable to reach the ice palace, and the distance between him and the ice palace hadn't shortened at all.
One had to know that Ye Xuan wasn't just simply climbing. Instead, he was using Star Shift to teleport. With his speed, he could travel thousands of kilometers in three days.
However, the distance between him and the ice palace did not change in the slightest. This undoubtedly made him doubt the scene in front of him.
Was this really not an illusion?
Or is it that my attainments in illusions are not enough and I am unable to see through this illusion?
If this was really an illusion, then everything he had done before was in vain. Everything he saw was fake, an illusory existence.
"What the eyes see is not necessarily true?"
All this time, Ye Xuan didn't have any doubts about his eyes. In fact, he was extremely reliant on them. But now, he had doubts about what he saw and doubted his eyes.
At that moment, he simply closed his eyes and carefully felt everything around him.
"You finally found the problem?"
In the ice palace, the gaze of the mysterious figure sitting cross-legged seemed to be able to see through space as it fell onto his body. Seeing Ye Xuan's reaction, a faint smile appeared on his cold and handsome face as he muttered some words.
Ye Xuan was able to recognize that everything he saw in front of him could be fake in three days. The place he was in could be an illusion. This was already very good for the mysterious figure.
After all, his identity and strength were well known throughout the universe. His illusions had reached the pinnacle of perfection, and had long since surpassed the realm of passing off falsehood as reality. Not to mention trapping a Yang Corporeal brat like Ye Xuan, even an Undead or Immortal expert would be able to doubt their lives in his illusions.
There was no other reason.
It was because he was the first generation tyrant whose name shook the universe, the Dragon Emperor Lan Feng!
Of course, he was only an avatar of the Dragon Emperor.
The illusion before him was a test for Ye Xuan.
If Ye Xuan could see through this illusion and come to his side, then he would have the qualifications to accept the inheritance he left behind.
Of course, this illusion wasn't only a test for Ye Xuan. At the same time, it was also a test for Ye Xuan. It was something that couldn't be transmitted with words and could only be felt with one's heart.
As Ye Xuan closed his eyes, his vision turned pitch black. All of the steps and the ice palace in front of him disappeared from his line of sight.
The surrounding silence was somewhat frightening.
He could clearly feel his own breathing, his own heartbeat, and his own pulse, but he was unable to sense anything in the outside world.
He felt as if he was trapped in a black space by a bee, completely isolated from the outside world.
This feeling was completely different from the feeling Ye Xuan usually felt when he closed his eyes.
Usually, when he closed his eyes, he could clearly feel everything around him. But now, when he closed his eyes, he couldn't feel anything other than himself. It was as if he was the only one left in the world.
A strong sense of loneliness, loneliness, and all sorts of emotions surged into his heart at this moment.
He squatted down and stretched out his hand to touch the steps under his feet, but he didn't feel anything. It was as if he was floating in the darkness.
This feeling caused Ye Xuan's heart to feel incomparably oppressed and inexplicably uncomfortable.
He felt his breathing gradually become heavy.
He felt sweat dripping down his head.
He felt as if something invisible was approaching him!
He felt like he was about to be swallowed by darkness.
"Huff, puff …"
Just as he was about to be swallowed by the darkness, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the stairs around him. As he looked at the mysterious ice palace in front of him, beads of sweat continuously rolled down Ye Xuan's face as he gasped for breath.
Looking at the familiar scene before him and thinking about the feeling he had when he closed his eyes, a trace of fear towards the darkness actually surged from the bottom of Ye Xuan's heart.
He began to doubt everything that appeared before his eyes.
At the same time, he began to doubt everything that he had just felt when he closed his eyes.
He didn't know which one of the two was real and which one was fake.
At this moment, Ye Xuan seemed to have lost his judgment towards the outside world and everything around him.
At this moment, Ye Xuan had fallen into a process of self-doubt, or even self-denial.
"Are you going to lose your self-judgment and fall into my illusions?"
Dragon Emperor Lan Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the ice palace, indifferently looked at Ye Xuan, who had fallen into self-doubt. Indifferent words came out of his mouth.
This was the terror of the illusions he cast.
It was enough to make anyone lose themselves, fall completely between truth and falsehood, and finally go crazy!
"Brat, what are you going to do now? Is it to completely fall, or to be reborn from the flames and recondense your own consciousness and judgment? "
At this moment, Dragon Emperor Lan Feng was filled with anticipation for Ye Xuan's next performance.
"No …" That's not right. Perhaps, what my eyes are seeing right now is not fake, but real! Maybe what I saw when I closed my eyes was not fake, but real! "
"There is often only a thin line between truth and falsehood, between illusion and reality!"
Seeing that Ye Xuan was about to completely fall into my hands and fall into the process of my suspicion, his gaze suddenly went cold as he muttered to himself.
"But, is everything around me real or fake? Which one should I believe when I open my eyes and feel it when I close my eyes? "
Ye Xuan's eyes flickered with a pondering light as he muttered to himself, "Regardless of whether everything around me is real or fake, one thing is certain. I am real!"
"Since I am real, then I should not doubt myself. Instead, I should believe in myself!" Everything I see in front of me should be real, and everything I feel with my eyes closed should be real! The current me should be at the node of two different worlds, or rather, standing at the edge of the world of truth and falsehood … "
"Between truth and falsehood, there is only a thin line between illusion and reality, and this line refers to me! If I think the world in front of me is real, then it is real! If I think the world in front of me is fake, then it is fake! The place I am in right now should be an illusion created by my own senses and consciousness! "
“
In fact, from the moment I stepped into that ice door, I was already in an illusion! "
"Then the original me should have entered the ice palace after walking through that ice door!"
As Ye Xuan muttered those words, his eyes erupted with a resplendent light. Boundless soul force crazily surged towards the center of his brows, and a tightly shut vertical eye quietly appeared at this moment.
This vertical eye was the Eye of Nightmare condensed from Ye Xuan's soul force, as well as the Eye of Karma condensed from the Nine Transformations Soul Steadying Needle.
"That's right, I should be in the ice palace right now. Everything I see and feel in front of me is fake. Only my own judgment is real!"
"Boom!"
As soon as Ye Xuan finished speaking, the tightly shut vertical eye between his brows suddenly opened.
The world before Ye Xuan's eyes quietly collapsed at this moment. The endless stairs continued to shatter, and the incomparably mysterious ice palace collapsed with a loud bang, turning into fragments that filled the sky and gradually dissipated.
Behind this collapsed world, a brand new world quietly condensed and appeared.
When everything in front of him turned into ashes and disappeared, what appeared in Ye Xuan's world was a mysterious and ancient ice hall.
In the center of the Ice Palace, a cold and mysterious young man was sitting on a throne, looking at him with admiration.
Ye Xuan felt that this cold and mysterious youth was somewhat familiar, as if he'd seen him somewhere before.
In the next moment, as if he had thought of something, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Wasn't this cold and mysterious youth in front of him the one who had been recorded in the annals of history, the one who had single-handedly created the Sovereign King Palace, the one who had defeated the alien races in the starry sky, the one who had made a name for himself in the universe, the first generation tyrant, Dragon Emperor Lan Feng?
After that, he quickly regained his senses and respectfully cupped his fists towards the mysterious youth. "Junior Ye Xuan greets Senior Lan Feng!"
"Haha …" Hurry up and rise! Brat, to be able to see through my illusion so quickly, you're not bad!
"Dragon Emperor Lan Feng lightly waved his sleeve, and a gentle gust of wind helped Ye Xuan up as he smiled.
"Senior, you flatter me. This junior was just lucky!"
Ye Xuan hurriedly said modestly.
"Is your third eye famous?"
Dragon Emperor Lan Feng's gaze fell onto the vertical eye between Ye Xuan's eyebrows.
"Senior, this vertical eye is the Eye of Nightmare, which I condensed from a secret soul technique, and the Eye of Karma, which I condensed from the Nine Transformations Soul-Fixing Needle. When this junior saw through your illusion, the two seemed to have mutated and fused together. Currently, this junior has not thought of a new name for it."
Ye Xuan respectfully cupped his fists and said.
His heart was filled with deep admiration and reverence for the man in front of him.
"Then can I give it a name?" Dragon Emperor Lan Feng said with a smile.
"Thank you, senior!" Ye Xuan hurriedly replied.
Dragon Emperor Lan Feng fell into silence and thought, "You possess star energy, and you also cultivate the Star Movement Technique. You have fate with the stars, so how about calling it the Star Emperor's Eye?"
The instant Dragon Emperor Lan Feng spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed at the air. Under Ye Xuan's shocked gaze, he saw a sudden change in the sky above his head. They seemed to be in a boundless starry sky, and endless starlight, star energy, and the Emperor's Qi gathered towards Dragon Emperor Lan Feng's palm, condensing into a golden light.
Dragon Emperor Lan Feng flicked his finger, and the golden light flew into the vertical eye between Ye Xuan's eyebrows.
Ye Xuan's body suddenly shook. Starlight surrounded his entire body, and the aura of an emperor enveloped him.
This phenomenon lasted for a full fifteen minutes before calming down.
Ye Xuan felt as if the eye between his brows possessed the power to see through all living things.
"Thank you for your name, senior!"
In the next moment, Ye Xuan respectfully cupped his fists and thanked Dragon Emperor Lan Feng.
"Follow me!"
Dragon Emperor Lan Feng nodded lightly, turned around, and walked towards the depths of the ice palace …
Seeing this, Ye Xuan hurriedly followed.
