Not only the group of servants, even Monarch Qi Hu who was in the small courtyard was affected.
Behind Dongbo Xue Ying, the massive Cinnabar God Bird flapped its wings. At this moment, there was no one controlling the defensive arrays of the palace. Even Monarch Qi Hu was resisting against the illusions and was unable to divert his attention to control any arrays. Dongbo Xue Ying was able to easily control the void and dispel these arrays. The palace also appeared from nothingness.
Dongbo Xue Ying stepped on the void. With just a single step, he arrived in front of Monarch Qi Hu who was in a small courtyard in the depths of the palace.
"Damn it, break for me, break for me …"
At this moment, Monarch Qi Hu felt very uncomfortable.
The sudden descent of the illusions forcefully pulled him into an illusory world. He had the feeling of having nightmares when he was young. He forcefully opened his eyes but very quickly, he sank back into the nightmare. Struggling, sinking, struggling … these were the experiences he had when he was young. However, the feeling he had now was very similar. Monarch Qi Hu's temperament and the strength of his soul was much stronger than Black Chief Devil.
When he encountered the illusions, he did not sink into them completely. Instead, he was very clear that it was an illusion. That was why he tried his best to break the illusions!
Indeed.
He had also broken through the illusions and could vaguely sense the surrounding courtyard. However, he soon sank into the illusions again! He tried his best to break through the illusions. Just as he barely managed to do so, the illusions would attack him again and again. This feeling was extremely terrible.
"Hu hu hu ~" The fiery-red air current permeated the courtyard and affected Monarch Qi Hu. It kept pulling him into the illusions again and again.
This was the power of Cinnabar's illusions.
Cinnabar's illusory realm was different from the system of Laws and Profound Mysteries. Cinnabar's illusory realm was carried along naturally, there was no need for Dongbo Xue Ying to control it. It was accompanied by a tempting aura and would attack the enemy countless times. Even if the enemy did not fall into the illusory realm, they would still be affected. Even if Monarch Qi Hu's mental state had reached a higher level of 'My Heart Is the World' and did not fall into it, he would still be affected by it. Even if Monarch Qi Hu's mental state had reached a higher level, 'My Heart of the World', and he did not fall into it, he would only be able to unleash 50-60% of his mental state!
Furthermore, Monarch Qi Hu's mental state was only at the level of Heart Like Blade. He was constantly struggling to break free from the illusion and was trapped in it. He could barely 'sense' that there was an enemy in the courtyard — the white-robed young man, Dongbo Xue Ying!
However, the scene in the courtyard and the scene in the illusion were starting to mix up.
"No, no, how could it be like this, how could it be like this …" Monarch Qi Hu felt terrible and his heart was ice-cold. He knew that he was facing an unprecedented danger.
In the past, when faced with danger, he could still use his strength to resist and escape.
But at this moment, he was constantly fighting against the illusion and had no way to deal with the enemy.
"Is it Dongbo Xue Ying?"
"He, how did he become so strong?" Monarch Qi Hu did not dare believe it, "The previous time we fought, he did not have such a terrifying illusory realm technique."
…
Within the courtyard.
Dongbo Xue Ying watched as Monarch Qi Hu's body trembled. He could not help but sigh inwardly: "Illusory realm techniques are sometimes weak, and sometimes very strong."
Against cultivators with a weaker mental state, the illusory realm was extremely effective! It was much better than fighting head-on.
But against those with a stronger mental state, it was still lacking.
And the 'Cinnabar illusory realm' was an ancient cultivation technique that was much stronger than simply using an illusory realm. It could forcefully pull the enemy into the illusory realm many times, affecting the enemy's strength. Hence, just this technique alone was qualified to reach the sixth level Star Pagoda strength. Even those who could maintain their consciousness would have to divert a large portion of their heart force to resist against the illusory realm. Fighting head-on, their strength would naturally decline!
"Monarch Qi Hu, however, is unable to resist at all." Dongbo Xue Ying shook his head.
"Spare, spare …" Monarch Qi Hu could barely shout out. He could not even open his eyes. Clearly, he was still struggling against the illusory realm.
"Descend."
Dongbo Xue Ying did not show any mercy.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, he would not have agreed to the deal in the past. It was precisely because the two experts from Chief Devil Cliff were infamous devils in the Myriad Ancient Sacred World that he agreed to the deal. Killing these devils was equivalent to saving the weaker ones. The rules of the Great Void Heaven Temple supported the disciples in killing devils. It was just that the other holy grounds did not dare to wantonly kill devils in the region governed by Jie Zu in the Myriad Ancient Sacred World.
For people like Dongbo Xue Ying, who had his own will and personal disputes, it was not considered much.
If it was the Great Void Heaven Temple that led this, and a large number of experts came to kill the devils in the Myriad Ancient Sacred World, it would naturally infuriate Jie Zu!
"Multi-Layered Dark World."
"Hong ~"
A Dark World descended and enveloped the trembling Monarch Qi Hu. From the illusory realm to the real world, it instantly caused a surging wave of Heaven and Earth Energy, causing the surrounding heaven and earth to tremble. The membrane of this Dark World actually had a shocking total of 2500 layers!
If the power of 600 layers of the World of Darkness was close to that of the Sky Punishment Edge, then the power of 2500 layers of the World of Darkness was far beyond that of a single Sky Punishment Edge! The reason why Dongbo Xue Ying executed the Multi-Layered Dark World was because the might of this move was concentrated within the Dark World. It would not affect the surroundings. If he unleashed the Sky Punishment Edge wantonly, it would cause too much destruction to the surroundings.
Although there were many servants in the palace, they were all subordinates that Monarch Qi Hu had forcefully captured. They were all weaklings and there was no need to affect them.
"Hong!!!"
When he executed Cinnabar's illusory realm, the 2500 layers of Dark World was Dongbo Xue Ying's limit.
This rapidly shrunk Dark World enveloped Monarch Qi Hu. Following an explosion, everything within the Dark World was destroyed. Monarch Qi Hu's body also turned into water.
Everything returned to silence.
However, Monarch Qi Hu, who was distorting the water, gradually regained his human form. However, his aura was clearly much weaker.
Back then, although he was able to withstand three Sky Punishment Edges, firstly, the Sky Punishment Edges attacked separately. This time, the might of the Multi-Layered Dark World far surpassed the Sky Punishment Edges. Secondly, back then, he was able to divert the force of the attack. But now, his heart force was affected by the illusory realm. He could only rely on his body to defend against the attack.
Naturally, he was heavily injured with just a single strike.
"No, I am not willing …" Monarch Qi Hu muttered. His eyes were still unable to open.
"Hong."
Dongbo Xue Ying once again descended upon the Multi-Layered Dark World.
Once, twice, thrice.
Each time, he unleashed a total of 2500 layers of Dark World. After unleashing it five times, Monarch Qi Hu's body was finally completely destroyed.
"What a powerful body. If there wasn't an illusory realm, he would be able to unleash his full strength … even if he just stood there and allowed me to attack him, as long as he diverted the force, he would still be able to resist for tens of times." Dongbo Xue Ying was speechless. If he was unable to control his body and could only rely on his body to resist, he would most likely be destroyed in a single strike.
Sou.
Dongbo Xue Ying waved his hand and all the treasures left behind by Monarch Qi Hu landed in his hands. His gaze involuntarily landed on one of the stone mirrors. When he was trapped in the illusory realm, Monarch Qi Hu was still holding onto this stone mirror.
"Stone mirror?" Dongbo Xue Ying could faintly sense something special about it. He couldn't help but take a closer look.
…
Myriad Ancient Sacred World, Jie Zu Palace.
Its location was very mysterious. Without any guidance, it was impossible to find it. Within Jie Zu Palace, two figures were currently standing there. One was the Black Emperor, and the other was a skinny man dressed in dark green robes. His eyes were filled with innocence and his mouth was very big. When he smiled, it was exceptionally radiant and comical.
But no one would find him interesting.
Because he was an existence in the five great sacred worlds and primal chaos void that countless cultivators looked up to. He was an existence whose strength was second only to the Sacred Master! He did not have as many techniques as Wu Zu, and neither did he dare to hide in his territory like the Ancestor Mother. He was someone who dared to fight head-on with the Sacred Master. The strength of his body had reached an unfathomable stage.
He was Jie Zu!
An existence who had spread the devour-class cultivation system. Countless devils had wantonly devoured lifeforms all because of this devour-class cultivation system!
But no one had ever dared to criticize 'Jie Zu' because of this. Those who criticized Jie Zu would all suffer the brutal pursuit of Jie Zu!
"Interesting, interesting." The skinny Jie Zu laughed. His voice was ear-piercing. The space in front of him distorted, revealing the scene of Dongbo Xue Ying inspecting the stone mirror.
"Such a coincidence?" The Black Emperor was slightly startled. He then laughed, "Senior Disciple Brother, it seems that this brat Dongbo is fated with our lineage. He cultivated the inheritance that I left behind, and now, he has obtained this treasure that you left behind."
If the outside world knew of their conversation, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.
Because in the outside world, the Black Emperor had never called Jie Zu 'Senior Disciple Brother'.
"After landing in his hands, let's see what this brat can do in the future." The skinny Jie Zu chuckled.
This treasure.
It had many names. 'Stone Heart', 'Broken Shield', 'Scale', 'Ancient Armor' … these names were ordinary, but in reality, it had appeared in the hands of many experts of the ancient cultivation system. They had discovered the uniqueness of this treasure, and its reputation gradually grew. It had even caused a bloodbath to occur! After that, Jie Zu would quietly bring the treasure away, changing its appearance before sending it to other ancient cultivators.
After a period of time, the appearance of the treasure would change.
This time, this treasure had changed into the appearance of a 'stone mirror'. It had only been passed to the hands of five Unity realm experts. Thus, its reputation wasn't that great. Thus, it ended up in the hands of Dongbo Xue Ying.
"Our lineage is divided into two branches. With the inheritance of my branch and the treasure you passed down to him, senior apprentice-brother, with his comprehension ability, he will definitely be able to walk further and further on the path of ancient cultivation." The Black Emperor smiled. "Perhaps he has the qualifications to join our branch."
"Hmph, who knows how long this treasure of mine had been passed down. In our lineage, including little junior disciple Brother, there are only three of us." The skinny Jie Zu sneered, "With just this brat?"
"That is hard to say." The Black Emperor was delighted.
The skinny Jie Zu sneered and shook his head. With a wave of his hand, the scene in front of him disappeared.
