In his past life, Chu Fengmian had read a lot of books, and had done a lot of research.
However, this was his first time seeing an illusion like this. The most basic requirement for creating one was that one had to be in the Wind-Riding Realm.
In his past life, Chu Fengmian didn't even have a spirit meridian, so how could he possibly have been in the Wind-Riding Realm?
Because of that, Chu Fengmian had only heard rumors about illusions, and had never truly studied them.
In fact, this was his first time seeing one.
"How do I break this illusion?"
Chu Fengmian asked quietly.
Chu Fengmian was indeed not afraid of encountering other things, but this illusion alone made Chu Fengmian somewhat helpless for a moment.
"How do I break it?" Xuan Xuan said. "This illusion is just the beginning of the real thing. It seems Grand Emperor Rich-Lush intentionally left a flaw in it. Otherwise, how could you possibly break it with your current strength?"
Clearly, Xuan Xuan didn't think much of the illusion at all.
The illusions he had seen before were a hundred times more terrifying than this. Senior, even if Grand Emperor Rich-Lush had used all of his power to create this illusion, he wouldn't be worried.
And this illusion was riddled with flaws.
"It's simple. All you have to do is find the core, and break it with your sword. Then the illusion will vanish."
Xuan Xuan said calmly.
"It's that simple?"
Chu Fengmian said, a strange expression on his face. If what Xuan Xuan said was true, then this illusion was a bit too easy to break.
Even if Grand Emperor Rich-Lush had intentionally created this illusion to make it simple, it was still his test. There was no way it could be as simple as Xuan Xuan said.
"Of course. Generally speaking, it's possible to break an illusion created by anyone under the Great Sage level."
Xuan Xuan explained. "Don't underestimate this illusion.
"But don't underestimate this illusion. Just this illusion alone, an ordinary martial artist at the peak of the Wind-controlling Realm may not be able to break it."
"It's easy to break an illusion, but not necessarily easy. Everyone knows how to break an illusion, but whether or not you can find the core is a big problem.
”
This illusion will be a good training exercise for you. Don't expect me to tell you where the core is. You'll have to find it yourself. "
After Xing Xuan finished speaking, his voice disappeared. It seemed like he had fallen into a deep slumber once again.
At the very most, Chu Fengmian would have lost the legacy of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush. That wouldn't have been enough to harm his life.
Xing Xuan naturally had no interest in caring. What he wanted to do was to protect Chu Fengmian's life and help him grow.
For Chu Fengmian, this illusion was indeed a form of training.
"Find the core …"
Chu Fengmian murmured. He raised his head and looked at the sea of fire in front of him. He suddenly understood that it was not as easy to break the illusion as he had imagined.
In this endless sea of fire, although it was an illusion, the heat would still constantly burn the bodies of the warriors. When they could no longer endure it, they would be trapped in this illusion and die.
If one wanted to find the core and break it, it was indeed impossible to do so without a sufficiently outstanding spiritual sense.
However, it wasn't difficult for Chu Fengmian to find the core.
"Sword!"
Chu Fengmian said inwardly, and the image of a sword appeared in front of him.
As Chu Fengmian poured his spiritual power into it, it split into hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of identical sword images.
In the blink of an eye, ten thousand sword images appeared around Chu Fengmian.
One Sword Ten Thousand Layers. This was one of the highest levels of sword intent. Although it couldn't compare to the Infinite Transformations, it was still something that countless sword cultivators dreamed of.
But for Chu Fengmian, using this level of sword intent wasn't difficult at all.
"If I can't find it, then I might as well not look for it. I'll just kill everything in this sea of fire. I refuse to believe that I won't be able to find the core!"
Chu Fengmian laughed coldly in his heart. With a thought, he sent out countless streams of sword light that danced about in the sea of fire.
One stream of sword energy after another slashed madly through the sea of fire.
It was as if ten thousand warriors were searching for the core in this sea of fire.
So what if the sea of fire was enormous? As long as Chu Fengmian destroyed any corner of the formation, he would naturally be able to find the core.
No matter how well it was hidden, it would be meaningless.
"He's really reckless."
Seeing Chu Fengmian's actions, Xing Xuan couldn't help but shake his head. He thought that Chu Fengmian would have to search for it himself.
He didn't expect that Chu Fengmian would use such a method to break the illusion.
Only Chu Fengmian could use such a method to break the illusion with force. Even if others could achieve One Sword Ten Thousand Layers, they couldn't be like Chu Fengmian, who had endless spiritual power to split the sword images.
This was indeed Chu Fengmian's most unique method.
Sword images flashed all over the sky. Soon, one of his sword images found a hidden place in an area of the sea of fire.
"Is this the core of the illusion? Break it! "
The moment Chu Fengmian felt it, he sent out countless sword images to slash at the core.
Suddenly, the entire core was shattered, and the surrounding flames were gradually extinguished.
The illusion was broken, and Chu Fengmian passed through the second gate.
Just like before, the third door suddenly opened in front of Chu Fengmian. It seemed to be waiting for Chu Fengmian.
"The first gate is an inner devil, and the second is an illusion. I wonder what the third gate will hold."
A confident smile appeared on Chu Fengmian's face.
He was determined to get the legacy of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush, and this trial wasn't going to be a problem for him.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Fengmian stepped into the third gate.
The gate led to an enormous forest, and as soon as Chu Fengmian entered, the howls of countless beasts could be heard.
"Demonlings?"
Chu Fengmian looked around and frowned. All of a sudden, an enormous bird appeared up in the sky, its claws extended as it swiped toward Chu Fengmian.
Chu Fengmian recognized it immediately.
It was a demonling known as a windflame bird, and was in the third division of the Wind-Control Realm.
"Crimsonflame!"
