After the immortal disappeared

Looking at the density of pedestrians on the street, and then looking at the facilities and houses in the city, He Lingchuan reasonably deduced that the number of residents should exceed 200,000 - this is the basic skill of a businessman.

From this point of view, the number of residents in the real world is more than six or seven times that of the fantasy world.

The expressions of the disciples of the Fantasy Sect changed from nervousness at the beginning, to surprise later, to confusion now. They could neither imagine nor understand that there was such a vast world under their feet, or at the bottom of Yaozi Lake, and that there were civilians living and working in peace and contentment on the exact same map.

Regarding this situation, He Lingchuan took out a copper plate with two fingers and waved it in front of Dong Rui: "It's like the front and back of this copper plate."

The disciples of the Fantasy Sect originally lived on one side, and the people in this world lived on the other side. The two did not interact with or interfere with each other——

Until the invasion of Tiangong broke this balance.

"The boundary between the front and back of the copper plate is the copper plate itself." He Lingchuan then asked Dong Rui, "Then where is the boundary between the real and the illusion?"

Dong Rui first eliminated an obvious answer: "Since you asked the question, it must not be Yaozi Lake?"

At this time, some disciples couldn't help but ask Elder Liu: "Master, uncle, are there sects in this world?"

If so, who are they who came out of the illusory world?

The answer given by Elder Liu sounded very accurate to He Lingchuan: "This world also has your ancestor!"

Yes, the two worlds that exist in the Upside Down Sea will worship Master Qianhuan.

Dong Rui muttered: "So, is the boundary between these two worlds Qianhuan Zhenren?"

He Lingchuan's eyes flashed and he glanced at him quickly.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

Maybe it had rained a few days ago and there were a lot of puddles in the fields. The team passed by a pond. Someone inadvertently lowered his head and said, "Reflection, look at the reflection!"

Everyone also looked at the reflection in the water, but saw that there were still the same people. Their faces had not changed, but their clothes had changed. They were originally wide robes with big sleeves, but in the reflection they became light armored tunics.

Everyone looked at each other and saw that their companions were still wearing sect robes. Then they looked into the water and saw that they were wearing Jiawei robes.

"No wonder the farmer asked us earlier if we were the guards of Rilun City." Wan Qifeng suddenly realized, "This is how we look in their eyes."

Aunt Zhu suddenly said: "In ancient times, we called the sun the 'sun wheel' and the moon the 'wisdom lantern'."

That’s why there’s that saying, the lamp of wisdom illuminates the phantom sea?

So the "sun wheel" corresponds to the present world? He Lingchuan looked up at the sky and saw the sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.

Elder Liu explained: "We suddenly entered the human world, and the Immortal Master must arrange a suitable identity."

The disciples of Huanzong were silent after hearing this.

It's the same island, the same terrain, the same mountains and forests, but it's no longer their hometown.

Although every plant and plant is so familiar, they came here illegally and even had to forge their identities.

Of course, He Lingchuan and others did not feel this way. They were pure outsiders.

Ahead is an open grain-drying field. There are several rows of shelves on the edge of the field. They are usually used to enlarge sieves, bamboo strips and other farm tools, but now there are several large baskets. Instead of grain, the basket contained a lot of masks.

These masks are made of wood or bamboo, with painted surfaces, in red, orange, yellow, blue, black and white. The only thing they have in common is their evil shape and ferocious appearance.

Either it has a grimace or an evil beast, it has horns or fangs, it has a smiling face or an angry face, it looks like a Nuo opera mask.

Elder Liu walked over, picked up a mask and put it on his face: "Come here to get it and wear it. This mask can confuse our tracks and prevent the pursuers from finding our whereabouts."

With just such a move, He Lingchuan basically concluded that he was in contact with Qian Huan. Otherwise, how would he know that these masks were prepared for everyone?

An interesting thing happened. After the mask was put on, it only existed for a dozen breaths and then disappeared.

Everyone saw that Elder Liu still had the same kind old face.

However, Elder Liu summoned a water mirror and stood in front of it.

The person reflected in the mirror was clearly a green-faced and fanged evil ghost, wearing a body armor.

Wan Qifeng looked at it and realized something: "In the eyes of people in this world, we have automatically disguised ourselves; now that we put on the mask, we are also disguised in the eyes of the pursuers."

Elder Liu nodded: "That's the truth."

Dong Rui has always been curious about knowledge: "Why the ghost mask? If we dress up as so many evil ghosts and run around on the road, won't it be more awkward?"

Elder Liu gave it a try and said, "In a while, you will understand."

So, He Lingchuan and others and the Huan Sect disciples all went to choose masks and put them on. Even Gui Yuan and Ling Guang chose two masks to wear.

Similarly, the mask disappears as soon as it is put on, and everyone looks at each other as they are, but appears as a ghost in the mirror.

This shows that their external image has actually changed.

Elder Liu immediately said: "From now on, in the eyes of outsiders who are not welcome in this world, we are all evil spirits. Let's go."

Everyone continued walking north along the mountain road.

He Lingchuan has another focus: "Where are the elders who entered Yaozi Lake and were trapped in this world now?"

Those are also the four powerful forces of Qianhuan Sect, which are especially valuable now.

Elder Liu only said: "They could not go back after crossing the lake in the past. They have been living in Rilun City and will join us soon."

They are all still alive. For the current Huanzong, they are four powerful new forces! "So, what about the envoys sent by Lingshan before?"

"I don't know about this." Elder Liu gave a but, "They didn't have the right identity when they came in, I'm afraid..."

I understand, I'm afraid they will encounter unknown risks here.

Dong Rui coughed lightly: "Since we are in the present world, can we leave the Upside-Down Sea?"

Originally, they were trapped in the illusion and couldn't get out; now Qianhuan has woken up, and everyone has returned to the real world. Logically, the road to the outside world should be unobstructed.

"Of course." Elder Liu nodded and whispered to He Lingchuan, "But Miao Zhantian will come across the lake soon. It's too dangerous to go out to sea at this time. If you are not careful, you will be overturned. It's better to avoid disaster on the shore."

What he meant was that everyone had a greater chance of survival under the wings of Qianhuan.

"When things here are over, you can leave naturally."

Previously in the fantasy world, the elders of the Huanzong fought with the Tiangong through the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, and overturned two or three boats in a blink of an eye. Thinking this way, it seems that the sea is more dangerous.

Dong Rui and others looked at He Lingchuan, who only stretched out his index and middle fingers and shook them lightly in front of his heart. This means:

Wait and see what happens.

Dong Rui's question was just a slight test. But He Lingchuan knew with his knees that Master Qianhuan would never let him go so easily.

At this time, Dong Rui gestured to He Lingchuan again and asked him why Master Qianhuan wanted to bring the Tiangong army into Yaozi Lake.

He Lingchuan smiled and said, "You should have asked this question a long time ago."

Aunt Zhu's voice transmission sounded in the ears of the two: "Is there any need to ask this? There is only one reason: Qianhuan believes that He has more advantages in fighting here!"

If it were it, it would also choose a place that is most advantageous to itself before provoking a fight.

Aunt Zhu asked He Lingchuan again: "Do you think these immortals of the Illusion Sect know in advance that there is another real Silver Pearl Island at the bottom of Yaozi Lake?"

"Xiao Wencheng may know one or two, but other immortals--" He Lingchuan shook his head, "The most terrifying thing is that the mortals and immortals there don't know when they went to the Illusion World or stayed in the Illusion World."

This alone shows that Qian Huan has unpredictable powers.

Above the immortals, there is indeed another level of power.

But then again, if the great immortals who have been with Qian Huan for more than two thousand years are ignorant, does it mean that Qian Huan may not have mastered or revealed this power before?

Whether it is Xiao Wencheng or Elder Liu, the conversation with He Lingchuan revealed a meaning: Although Qian Huan Zhenren has been in seclusion for more than 150 years, the old saying is good, there is no sun and moon in the mountains, and the time in the cave is mostly unchanged. The real changes in the upside-down sea actually started sixty years ago.

What happened sixty years ago? As far as He Lingchuan knows, Qian Huan Zhenren sent his clone to retrieve the Dayan Dzi Bead from Yao Country, and he has been in seclusion since then until today.

Is it related to the Dayan Dzi Bead that Qian Huan Zhenren can do so many tricks in the Upside-down Sea?

"If even Sect Leader Xiao and Elder Liu can't figure out the inside story-" He Lingchuan pondered, "It seems that Miao Zhantian's assessment of the current strength of this old opponent may be biased."

Miao Zhantian should know nothing about Qian Huan's progress after getting the Dayan Dzi Bead.

For a contest of this level, such information bias is very terrible.

"Perhaps, this is also a major reliance of Qian Huan Zhenren's careful layout."

At this time, a disciple asked Elder Liu: "Master, where are we going now?"

Elder Liu said solemnly: "To find the Immortal Venerable."

At the same time, we must stay away from Yaozi Lake.

...

The Heavenly Palace army also passed through Yaozi Lake.

When people are in the lake, they have no strength up, down, left, or right, and are most vulnerable to attack. So Bai Ziqi first sent the bird demons and masters over to patrol the coast and escort the large army.

However, it turned out that his worries were a bit unnecessary. The whole process of the Tiangong army crossing the lake was very smooth, and there was almost no sniping.

There was no one in the sky or on the shore. Except for the wind blowing the trees, everything was quiet.

Although the sun was shining, the lakeside was still damp, and white mist was floating in the forest, adding a bit of agility to the lake view.

But everyone had no intention of enjoying the scenery. The thicker the mist, the worse the vision.

The gray parrot also came out of the water, standing on Bai Ziqi's shoulder and shaking off the water droplets on its feathers: "A defeated bandit is not worthy of courage."

Before entering the lake, the retreat of the Huanzong was a bit disgraceful. They easily caught more than a hundred people and killed them all.
