As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhan's figure disappeared from Wang Chen's sight without any hesitation.
Wang Chen was full of resentment for what he had done! Did that fellow really leave just like that? Did he leave me here?
Looking at the Purple-Flame Lion King pouncing at him once again, Wang Chen took a deep breath and hurriedly executed the Ghostly Steps, dodging the Purple-Flame Lion King's attacks.
For a moment, Wang Chen's figure turned illusory, drifting erratically like a ghost. He had absolute confidence in the Ghostly Steps. Right now, the only thing he could contend against was the Purple-Flame Lion King.
After dodging the Purple-Flame Lion King's attacks several times, Wang Chen gradually relaxed.
He even started to test out the Eighteen Overlapping Wave Palms! From time to time, he would counterattack the Purple-Flame Lion King.
After fighting for about five to six minutes, the Purple-Flame Lion King roared again and again.
Facing a puny human, it actually failed to kill him despite attacking for a long time. Instead, it suffered some injuries from this puny human's continuous counterattacks!
The numbing feeling in its body further stimulated its wildness.
At this moment, as the battle continued, Wang Chen also noticed that something was wrong! Logically speaking, a sixth grade demonic beast should be extremely powerful. However, the Purple-Flame Lion King before him was not as powerful as a sixth grade demonic beast!
Could it be that his judgment was wrong?
With a trace of doubt, Wang Chen once again dodged the Purple-Flame Lion King's attack with a slight frown on his face.
As he gained a better understanding of the Purple-Flame Lion King's attacks, Wang Chen gradually relaxed and dodged with greater ease. This battle was not as difficult as when he killed the Silver Armored King Snake! Could it be that there was something else going on? Was it still an illusion?
Thinking of all this, a trace of horror flashed in Wang Chen's eyes. He thought of the last words that Lin Zhan left for him before he left: Truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth! Truth and falsehood are both true and false, so what if it's true or false? Truth and falsehood are compatible, the thoughts of the heart are formed! The thoughts of the heart are formed, the thoughts of the heart are formed! The thoughts of the heart are formed, the thoughts of the heart are formed!
Suddenly, Wang Chen's eyes flashed as if he had grasped an important point.
The next moment, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and the corners of his mouth revealed a faint smile!
"I see!" While dodging the Violet Flame Lion King's attacks, Wang Chen's thoughts changed. He finally figured out the key elements of the situation.
Just like what Ling Zhan had said, this was still an illusory realm, and everything here was fake. Everything here was a void! It was a test of a person's wisdom!
True and false, false and true! This was what a top-notch illusion should show.
The three-eyed green wolf from before was the most direct manifestation. Then, as he broke through the illusions, the illusions began to level up! The surrounding illusions began to change without anyone noticing.
The Violet Flame Lion King in front of him was the real Demonic Beast, and it was the real Demonic Beast! Truth and falsehood, on the other hand, allowed for another situation, which was the current situation!
Although the Violet Flame Lion King was real, its strength was nothing much. It did not have the strength of a Sixth Order Demonic Beast! The Violet Flame Lion King before him was at most as strong as the Silver Armoured King Snake! This was the truth of the Violet Flame Lion King.
More importantly, the last sentence directly explained why such a situation had occurred!
What the heart thinks, what the heart thinks, what the heart thinks, what the heart thinks, what the heart moves! As one's heart and mind, everything returns to one! So what if it was true or false?
The illusion was a test of a person's state of mind and state of mind! When a Martial Artist entered the ranks of Martial Artists, the requirements for their state of mind would increase along with their strength! A strong state of mind would allow one to have a smoother journey on the path of martial cultivation, allowing one to reach a higher level.
If a Martial Artist's state of mind had not reached that level, but his cultivation had exceeded the level of his state of mind, there would be troublesome consequences! If it was light, they would encounter a bottleneck and find it hard to break through. They might not even be able to take half a step forward! If it was heavy, he would go berserk, unable to control his True Core Force and hurting himself.
As for the illusion, it was the nightmare of every Martial Artist! This was the scariest part. It was a test of a person's state of mind! It would lure out the thoughts in the depths of one's heart to form the truth! For example, a strong enemy would appear, causing one to be timid and trap one to die. Another example would be to lure out the madness in one's heart and make one fight on the battlefield! This was a form of control over one's heart.
Just like now, with the appearance of the Purple Flame Lion King, if Wang Chen was afraid and timid, the Purple Flame Lion King would become even stronger.
It might even surpass the expectations of a Martial Artist, surpassing the strength of a sixth-order Demonic Beast.
However, if a Martial Artist had a strong will and could not be swayed, the Purple Flame Lion King would not be able to become stronger and its strength would be greatly reduced! Under the control of the illusion.
If Wang Chen was in the illusion, so was the Purple Flame Lion King. They were both affected.
As such, the Purple Flame Lion King's strength was only that of a third-order Demonic Beast!
As one's state of mind, everything returns to one! As expected! Although this illusion was of a higher level, it was still unable to break free from the most basic element of the illusion. If one was stronger, it would become weaker and if one was weaker, it would become stronger!
Just now, it was because Wang Chen had full confidence in his Ghostly Steps that he had unintentionally caused the Purple Flame Lion King to be helpless. It was because Wang Chen had enough confidence in his own strength that he tried to counterattack and the Purple Flame Lion King was once again suppressed! Everything was as such.
If Wang Chen had really been afraid just now, then his Ghostly Steps would have been useless! After all, in front of a sixth-order Demonic Beast, the Ghostly Steps that Wang Chen executed with his current strength would be useless.
It was the same for the Overlapping Waves Palm. Wanting to injure a sixth-order Demonic Beast? Wang Chen had to at least enter the ranks of King Warriors! Otherwise, even if the Purple Flame Lion King stood there for him to hit, he would still be fine.
"It's really powerful!" After thinking it through, Wang Chen was even more impressed by the illusion.
Not only was it a place to test one's mental state, but it was also a place to test a Martial Artist's confidence.
Confidence was of utmost importance to a Martial Artist! The distance a Martial Artist could go in the future was closely related to confidence.
If one did not have confidence in oneself, then how could one improve in the future? If one did not have confidence when facing a strong enemy, then how could one fight?
At the same time, it was also a place to test one's domineering aura. With enough domineering aura, one would be able to suppress his opponent in battle and gain the upper hand before the battle even started.
At the level of an expert, sometimes, the final outcome of a battle was not decided by strength! Most of the time, it was a battle of confidence and domineering aura.
In the next moment, the way Wang Chen looked at the Purple Flame Lion King was completely different. He no longer had the worry from before. Instead, he became domineering and confident, as if he was looking at an ant.
"Beast, die!" An angry roar rang out! The Ghostly Steps flashed rapidly and the Overlapping Waves Palm blasted out in succession as he pounced towards the Purple Flame Lion King.
"Rumble …"
It was as if the Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder was exploding continuously.
The Purple Flame Lion King's wails were heard one after another. At this moment, Wang Chen realized that the Purple Flame Lion King's strength was not as strong as a third-order Demonic Beast. He could easily control it!
Being in a good mood, he executed the Ghostly Steps to the fullest.
Every time the Purple Flame Lion King launched a counterattack, he would only dodge when it was about to reach Wang Chen.
Without realizing it, Wang Chen had actually stepped into the Minute Subtlety stage of the Ghostly Steps! With one more step, he had reached the Intermediate stage of the Ghostly Steps!
One must know that the Ghostly Steps had a total of three stages: Lesser Mastery, Minute Mastery, and Greater Mastery! At this moment, Wang Chen had broken through from Lesser Mastery to Greater Mastery. His Ghostly Steps had undergone a substantial change!
If the Ghostly Steps in the past gave people a strange and fleeting feeling, the Ghostly Steps at this moment was seductive and illusory!
It was hard to fathom. At the last moment, he would use the smallest amount of strength to move a few centimeters away, brushing past the opponent's attack. Furthermore, at this moment, all of Wang Chen's dodging movements were hard to detect. It was as if he had never moved at all! He stuck close to the Purple Flame Lion King.
As Wang Chen completely suppressed the Purple Flame Lion King, the Purple Flame Lion King let out a final howl before disappearing from Wang Chen's sight.
Everything returned to normal! The previously messy ground returned to its original state. There were no signs of a battle. It was as if the Purple Flame Lion King had never appeared.
"Minute Subtlety!" Only after the Purple Flame Lion King disappeared did Wang Chen relax. A satisfied smile appeared on his face as he stepped out with the Ghostly Steps.
Who would have thought that his Ghostly Steps, which had been stagnant for a long time, would have a breakthrough and enter the Minute Subtlety stage?
This represented a huge improvement in the Ghostly Steps! At the same time, it would also provide Wang Chen with a better foundation and benefits in future battles!
Entering the Minute Subtlety not only allowed him to become stronger in dodging, but it also allowed him to conserve his True Origin Energy and stamina.
Previously, he would need to move two steps to dodge the lion king's attack. Now, he could move half a step or even avoid the lion king's attack with a single step! This was definitely a huge leap forward.
He never thought that the first thing he would gain in the Heavenly Body Realm would be a breakthrough in the Ghostly Steps. Thinking of this, Wang Chen became even more excited and expectant. What would he gain next?
Looking at the surroundings, he was filled with emotions! True and false! What a good 'true and false'. Back then, Senior Ling Yu was indeed a powerful person. He must have already understood the laws of heaven and earth! With such an elite cultivator, it was no wonder that Xingchen School could reach such heights back then.
"Hehe, brat, how was it? As the battle ended, Lin Zhan appeared beside Wang Chen and asked with a smile, "The feeling of torturing a Sixth Tier Demonic Beast isn't too bad, right?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk … not bad. You've gained quite a lot. Now, your mental state has improved by a lot! Hehe, you can be considered to have seen the basics! Keep it up, your future is not bad! You've also broken through the Ghostly Steps. Hehe, this trip to the Heavenly Body Realm was not in vain! "Then, Lin Zhan looked at Wang Chen and clicked his tongue in wonder.
