Eternal Tranquility

Liu Qinghuan hadn't felt such a strong feeling of weightlessness for a long time. He activated his spiritual power and used the Pingxu Wind Control Technique, but he still felt like he was falling and falling.

The dazzling treasure house only flashed and then suddenly disappeared, the eyes fell into darkness, and there was even an echo when I shouted.

Liu Qinghuan's heart sank. Although he concluded that all this was an illusion based on clues, he actually didn't have much confidence. After all, everything looked too real, and the previous killing of demon apes and collecting Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng had been included in the Songxi Cave Heaven Map. Proved to be true. When he met Song Jing and others later, he slowly gave up his doubts.

But when they arrived under the ruins, Liang Jing'an and the others suddenly lost their minds, making his suspicions rise again, even deeper than before.

But he didn't expect that the illusion would suddenly attack like this.

The only way to explain it is that the island where the monster ape is located is most likely real, because it is indeed marked on the map obtained from the Qingmirage family, but the island is probably not as big as what he saw. The other peaks behind it and The ruins may be an illusion.

There is emptiness in reality, and there is reality in emptiness. It is difficult to distinguish between virtuality and reality, and it is more confusing. This time, they were afraid that they would encounter a very powerful mirage.

Several other people disappeared with the treasure house, and even Liang Jing'an, who was following him at the time, was nowhere to be found.

Under the eyes of Po Deliang, the darkness in front of me has not changed at all, and the Qingming Meditation Pendant around my neck seems to have malfunctioned. After the sudden light a few days ago, there has been no big movement. However, although it could not break the illusion, it kept pouring a trickle of coolness into his body. This was probably the reason why he did not lose his mind like others.

The spiritual power in the body is still running freely, but the feeling of falling has not disappeared, and it seems to be getting faster and faster. If this continues...

However, since I know it is an illusion, this feeling may not be real.

He thought for a while, resisted the huge falling force on his body, tried hard to control his body and sat cross-legged, with his five hearts facing the sky and his mind guarding the mourning platform. He stopped caring about things outside himself and tried to enter concentration.

Although there were still some distracting thoughts in his mind, at this level of cultivation, concentrating his mind was almost as natural as breathing. After a while, he felt that he had stopped in a peaceful state, and gradually a breeze blew on his face. A soft light lit up before his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, he found that he was already in a bamboo forest. When the wind passed by, the bamboo leaves rustled, and the warm sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves. It was like a lazy afternoon, so comfortable that it made people sleepy.

However, Liu Qinghuan frowned. This environment was too similar to the Bamboo Forest Mountain in Wenshi Sect. The rustling of bamboo leaves had accompanied him for a lot of time. When he was young, he first entered the dream of cultivating immortals, the hardship of cultivation, the sect's The sound of the bamboo leaves can be heard in the friendship and later on wherever the body and mind rest.

It is said that mirages can spy on people's hearts, charm them, and then wait for opportunities to move.

With a gentle step of his feet, it floated up from the ground and stepped on the bamboo tops.

If you look around, you will see green mountains and green water. All kinds of green bamboos are planted all over the mountains and plains. A stream rolls down from the top of the mountain, twists around halfway up the mountain, and flows under the wall of a small courtyard with black tiles and pink walls. Pass and continue flowing down the mountain. There is also a gravel path hidden among the bamboo forests. There are sometimes wild flowers on the roadside. Everything looks so clean and peaceful.

Farther away, one mountain after another, there are nine tall peaks towering into the clouds.

Liu Qinghuan sneered. The foundation and momentum of the Wenshi Sect could not be imitated by an illusion. They were simply imitating others!

He took out the Jingwei Sword, moved the sword at will, and slashed towards the bamboo forest below with one strike!

Several frightened birds flew out of the forest, chirping as if to accuse him of being rough. Broken branches and leaves flew in all directions along with the soil. The false peace was torn apart at this moment.

Liu Qinghuan remained unmoved, and without any hesitation with his sword, he used the Eight-Character Sword Technique, in addition to the Huan Zi Jue, and the other three Zi Jue, one after another, in an endless stream, turning the sea of ​​bamboo into a sea of ​​swords. .

"Hello!"

Liu Qinghuan's hands shook, and his eyes suddenly turned back like sharp arrows!

I saw that the female cultivator I had seen in the treasure house had touched his back at some point, but I didn't notice it at all!

He had never thought that he would meet other people in the illusion before, and thought that everyone was separated by themselves, so the sudden appearance of the other party really left him unprepared. If the other party suddenly launched a secret attack...

He saw a layer of cold sweat on his back, and his face looked a little bad.

The female cultivator had changed out of her previous black robe and was now wearing a light blue dress. I felt a little pity for her, but when she opened her mouth, she seemed a bit rude: "How long have you been here? You and anyone else?"

Liu Qinghuan was impatient and said, "No." Then he asked, "How did you get here?"

The female cultivator was a little disappointed. She glanced down the mountain and said angrily: "How else can I come here! You fell down. I have been wandering around the mountain for several days and finally met you. If not, I would have ended up like this. situation?!"

Liu Qinghuan almost laughed angrily: "So, you would rather stay in that illusory treasure house?"

However, the other party has been here for several days. He is sure that it did not take that long to free himself from the whereabouts.

The female cultivator snorted: "At least there are many treasures there for me to see. What is there? They are all illusions. Which one do you choose?"

Liu Qinghuan opened his mouth, but was rendered speechless by her words.

The female cultivator looked at the bamboo forest that was already in a state of disarray and said disdainfully: "You don't think that you can break the illusion by chopping and beating like this, do you?"

Liu Qinghuan said calmly: "Then I don't know what my friend's wisdom is that can break the illusion?"

If she had, she wouldn't have been wandering around for a few days.

The two of them exchanged a few words, but the female cultivator glanced at him, stopped talking, turned around and flew up the mountain.

Liu Qinghuan no longer messes with the bamboo forest. There are just the two of them here. If they want to get out of trouble, they must cooperate, so now they can only get along with each other reluctantly: "My Taoist name is Qingmu, haven't you asked my Taoist friend for his honorary name?"

"Sheng Yan." The female cultivator said without looking back.

"Sheng?" Liu Qinghuan said, "Are you from the Qingmirage family?"

"snort."

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Liu Qinghuan stopped asking. However, the other party's willingness to tell his name can be regarded as recognition of the current situation.

The two of them reached the mountainside in silence. Sheng Yan walked directly to the small courtyard by the stream and said, "I want to see what this illusion is going to do. There is a ban on a broken house located in a barren mountain and forest. Are you afraid that we won’t notice?”

As he spoke, the blue light in his hand suddenly broke out, and a spell hit the wooden courtyard door!

"Who is outside the courtyard? Did you know that you are a guest when you come to the door? Why should you be so rude?" A man's voice suddenly came from inside, and the courtyard door creaked and slowly opened to both sides.

What Liu Qinghuan hates most in his life is that illusions and other things conjure up the appearance of people close to him. Just hearing the voice of the person inside the door made a cold edge flash in his eyes. Then he looked inside the wide-open door. , isn’t it just Ji Yue who is dressed in a wide robe and long sleeves, looking unrestrained and unrestrained!

When "Ji Yue" saw him, he laughed heartily and threw the wine bottle in his hand: "Junior brother, you are finally back from that Lao Shizi interface. Master has been worried about you all these years, just because...Junior brother!"

Liu Qinghuan already felt something bad when the illusion spoke, and listening to what he said next, his identity was almost exposed in a few words.

Mirage!

As soon as he breaks through this illusion, the first thing he does when he goes out is to dig out the mirage from the sea, then skin it and cramp it!

He casually glanced at Sheng Yan, who had already dodged aside, from the corner of his eye. Before the fake Ji Yue could say a third sentence, the Jingwei sword at his side flashed and slashed out fiercely.

The other party didn't seem to expect that he would suddenly act like this. He just screamed and didn't hide.

Seeing that Jingwei Sword was about to strike the opponent, Liu Qinghuan paused with the sword technique in his hand. Facing the face that was exactly the same as his senior brother's, he felt a little unable to move, so Jingwei Sword couldn't help but swerve and followed it. As he passed by, a deep sword mark immediately appeared on the ground.

Fortunately, the other party finally shut up.

"Junior brother!"

"Ji Yue" looked shocked, as if he had just done something treacherous.

Liu Qinghuan pushed him into the door and stepped in. At the same time, he said to Sheng Yan behind him: "Fellow Taoist Sheng, I have to go in to solve some housework. Can you wait outside for a while?"

Although his words were inquiries, his tone was decisive, and his movements were even faster, slamming the courtyard door shut.

Sheng Yan behind the room didn't say anything, her brooding look gradually faded away, replaced by a smile full of interest.
