Immortal Road

A few days later, Ishikawa followed Liu Zhen and four others to a place where spiritual grass was extremely lush.

Ishikawa also knows most of the spiritual herbs here, but they are several times larger than what Ishikawa knew. Even the spiritual herbs in the Immortal Mansion are not so strong. From this, it can be seen that there must be something very different here. Ordinary things exist.

"This is the place to get the Chenshang True Spirit!" Liu Zhen took a gentle breath and said: "Fellow Taoists, we are bound to get it this time. Once we get the Chenshang True Spirit, we don't have to I won’t have to endure the pain of resisting the Mothers of Demonic Insects anymore!”

Then, Liu Zhen looked at Shi Chuan again and said: "Fellow Taoist Shi! The four of us have been here before and know a little about this place, but this is your first time here, so I have to give you a special warning. Although Chen Shang is trapped in We are still sleeping, but we still have to be careful. Once we are alerted to Chenshang, we will not be able to escape death!"

"What is this True Spirit of Chenshang?" Ishikawa asked.

"The true spirit of Chenshang?" Liu Zhen hesitated a little and then said: "The true spirit of Chenshang is formless and indescribable. Every time we see it, it is different. Even at the same time, what everyone sees is completely different. Same. So I can't describe it. After a while, we will use spiritual power to activate it, just like breaking open the Sumeru mirror, and then a huge illusion of Sumeru will appear. As long as this illusion is broken, we can obtain the true spirit of Chenshang! Although the five of us are in the same place, the Sumeru illusion we see is different, so we need to break the formation separately. If we cannot break this illusion, not only will we not be able to obtain the true spirit of Chenshang, we may even fall here. Several fellow Taoists have died here!”

"Oh?" After listening to Liu Zhen's explanation, Ishikawa knew something about the matter.

But Ishikawa also knew it very well. Liu Zhen just gave a general explanation. Don’t describe all the key details to yourself.

The other four people all stared at the spiritual grass in the center. They all looked extremely careful.

Ishikawa can also feel that obtaining the true spirit of Chenshang is not an easy task.

Moreover, Ishikawa still had some doubts about the existence of Chenshang True Spirit.

Chenshang is a powerful creature that existed when the universe was formed, even the Star Soul Ancient God. Highly recommend it.

As the saying goes, a centipede is dead but not stiff!

What's more, even if a powerful creature like Chen Shang is in trouble, even if it is trapped by demonic insects, it cannot be killed by ordinary monks. It is completely impossible to take away Chen Shang's true spirit.

"Perhaps the Chenshang true spirit called by these people is not the real true spirit, but something else, which is just very important to Chenshang!" Ishikawa secretly guessed in his heart.

With this question, Ishikawa asked the Star Soul Ancient God.

To this. Star Soul Ancient God was also extremely surprised, in his opinion. It is impossible for a mere monster insect or a few human monks to harm Chen Shang's true spirit, let alone take away Chen Shang's true spirit.

Moreover, Ancient God Star Soul also said very solemnly that even if they obtained Chen Shang's true spirit, they would not be able to use or absorb it. Due to Chen Shang's power, the attempt to seize the soul would inevitably lead to death.

After getting this result, Ishikawa asked the Sky-Eating Soul Beast.

The Sky-Slaying Soul Beast is proficient in the method of illusion, so it will be easy for it to help Ishikawa break the illusion.

In addition, the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast had just devoured Mang's consciousness, and Ishikawa also wanted to get some useful information from the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast.

As one of the mothers of the five demonic insects, Mang should know this matter very well.

Previously, Mang once offered a huge secret in exchange for all the colorful lotus seeds, but Ishikawa rejected it.

Ishikawa concluded that the secret might be related to this.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, Mang's spiritual will is extremely huge. Although I have devoured his spiritual will, it will be difficult to assimilate it for a while!"

After hearing the news, Ishikawa was slightly disappointed.

However, Ishikawa knew very well that Mang's spiritual thoughts were very special, and haste made waste in everything. Once the assimilation process was too fast, it would most likely lead to Mang's backlash.

Ishikawa pondered for a moment and said, "I encountered some illusions. I wonder if you can break them?"

"Illusion?" The Sky-Slaying Soul Beast was a little overjoyed: "Most illusions are nourishing to me. If it is an ordinary illusion, just leave it to me. But if it is a huge illusion array, there is nothing I can do!"

Ishikawa nodded: "If necessary, I will naturally inform you."

Liu Zhen and the other four people had already discussed it, and Ishikawa would experience the first illusion.

There are five illusions in total here. The first path is the strongest and the last path is the weakest. The four of them knew how powerful the first illusion was, and naturally they did not want to risk their lives.

Moreover, for them, this is the greatest value of Ishikawa.

However, once the first illusion is broken, the true spirit of Chenshang will appear. Ishikawa can collect the true spirit of Chenshang immediately.

And the four of them can only continue to conquer the true spirit after breaking through their respective illusions.

Conquering the true spirit is also an extremely dangerous process. If you are not careful, your consciousness may be controlled and your inner demons may invade you, leading to your death.

Liu Zhen has entered this place more than ten times. He can be regarded as one of the monks who can enter Chenshang's body and has a relatively long life.

Liu Zhen has seen at least four monks who died here. Moreover, these four people were the first to break the illusion.

There were three other people who were seriously injured and their cultivation levels were drastically reduced.

Risks and opportunities coexist.

Liu Zhen didn't want to take this risk, and Liu Zhen had considered before that even if Shi Chuan got more true spirits, as long as the four of them joined forces, Shi Chuan would definitely die, and at that time, the true spirits would still belong to the four of them.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, you have the highest cultivation level, so I'll leave it to you to break the first illusion!" Liu Zhen looked at Shi Chuan and said.

The other cultivators naturally wouldn't have any objections, as they knew the first illusion very well.

Shi Chuan didn't agree immediately, but smiled slightly and said nothing.

"If you are the first to break the illusion, you will have more opportunities to collect true spirits. Don't you cherish this opportunity?" Huang Shenkun said unhappily.

"Since fellow Daoist Huang is so envious of me, the first person to break the formation is you!" Shi Chuan responded slowly.

At this moment, Shi Chuan didn't know what Liu Zhen and the other four were thinking. If he knew this, Shi Chuan would not refuse at all, and would have started to break the formation long ago.

What Shi Chuan was worried about was that when he broke the illusion, he might be besieged by these four people.

Although Shichuan already knew that he and these four people were not on the same path and were not worth planning. But Shichuan did not want to tear his face in such a place.

At least he had to wait until he left Chenshang and escaped the siege of the Mother of Demonic Insects.

By then. Although it was a bit difficult for Shichuan to fight against four great monks alone, he was not without the strength to fight.

It was even possible that Shichuan could kill these four people and take away all the true spirits.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, what Fellow Daoist Huang said was not wrong. The first person who broke the illusion could collect the true spirit of Chenshang first, but the first illusion was very powerful. If we broke the illusion, we would definitely suffer great losses. It would be much easier for Fellow Daoist Shi to break the illusion. And the four of us. We must break our own illusions before we can collect the true spirits!" Liu Zhen explained.

Hua Lingran also laughed and said, "This is what is called more work, more gain. Since Fellow Daoist Shi has such a high level of cultivation, why not take on this illusion first? Besides, you have more opportunities to break the illusion, which is much more beneficial than us."

Listening to what Liu Zhen and Hua Lingran said, it seems that they are not false.

Ishikawa doesn't care about breaking the illusion. As long as the Sky Devouring Soul Beast helps a little, it will be easy.

"Let me break the first illusion, but I want you to agree to one condition!" Ishikawa bowed.

"Condition?"

"Tell me, what is your condition, as long as it is not excessive, I will agree to it!" Liu Zhen's displeasure flashed, and soon he said to Ishikawa with a smile.

"My relationship with the Mother of Demon Insects is not harmonious, and I feel that the Mother of Demon Insects seems to have discovered something. So after obtaining the True Spirit, I hope that Fellow Daoist can help me leave here!"

After hearing this, Liu Zhen was very happy.

He had been thinking about how to persuade Shichuan to go with them, but Shichuan actually brought up the matter directly, saving him from wasting words.

Although he was overjoyed, Liu Zhen still pretended to be surprised: "What? Daoist Fellow Shi actually has a grudge against the Mother of Demonic Insects? The Mother of Demonic Insects controls tens of millions of demonic insects, and we cultivators are definitely not their opponents!"

Shichuan said nothing.

If Liu Zhen did not agree to this condition, Shichuan would never break the illusion.

Moreover, Shichuan believed that Liu Zhen must have a way.

After a while, Liu Zhen said with some embarrassment: "In fact, it is not impossible to take Daoist Fellow Shi away from here, but I want to know which mother of demonic insects Daoist Fellow Shi is attached to. If it is the same one as us, then it will be difficult to deal with!"

"Mang!" Shichuan said Mang's name without hesitation.

It was only a few months since the last demonic insect war.

Although most of Mang's demonic insect swarms were killed by Shichuan, Mang did not die.

Moreover, after Mang disguised himself, even Chen Shang did not notice it, and the other four mothers of demon insects would certainly not notice it.

"Master Mang?" Liu Zhen nodded and said, "Then there will be no problem. I promise that fellow Daoist Shi can leave here safely. I swear by my mind!"

For cultivators of Liu Zhen's realm, the oath of mind is extremely important.

Once the oath of mind is violated, it will certainly cause inestimable damage to their cultivation, and even lead to the invasion of the inner demon.

Liu Zhen's oath made Ishikawa feel a lot more at ease.

However, Liu Zhen and the other three people did not think so in their hearts.

It is true that they took Ishikawa away from here, but once they left this place and reached a safe place, they would attack Ishikawa.

They would never watch Ishikawa leave with a large number of Chen Shang's true spirits.

"Thank you all fellow Daoists!" Ishikawa laughed loudly. He was very satisfied with this result.

In this way, Ishikawa not only did not have to worry about these four people attacking him, but also did not have to worry about how to leave Chen Shang.

The only thing that Ishikawa needs to pay attention to is whether this Dust and Death Spirit really exists?

"Resist!" Ishikawa shouted softly.

A huge golden demon insect appeared ten feet away.

This demon insect was very realistic, but Ishikawa knew very well that it was just an illusion.

The other four people saw Ishikawa take the initiative to break the vision, and they all showed satisfied smiles on their faces. Naturally, they would not fall behind easily, and immediately exerted their spiritual power to attract their own visions.

If Ishikawa succeeded. They would immediately kill the illusion in front of them and compete with Ishikawa for the Dust and Death Spirit. If Ishikawa failed, they did not need to insist too much, and with their strength, they could completely retreat.

The demon insect that appeared in front of Ishikawa was just like a replica of Mang, and seemed to be more powerful than Mang.

Ishikawa knew that this was no accident.

There should be some kind of strange power here. You can check Ishikawa's spiritual thoughts and transform the Mang that Ishikawa just experienced.

According to Liu Zhen and others, the strength of this illusion must not be underestimated.

However, Ishikawa had no intention of dealing with it with his own strength. Since the Sky-Eating Soul Beast restrained the illusion, Ishikawa directly summoned the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast.

Although the Sky-Eating Soul Beast would be exposed to Liu Zhen and others, it would save a lot of trouble.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Shi has met a powerful enemy!" After seeing the illusive Mang, the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast said with a smile: "But for me, it is a great nourishing product!"

More illusions suddenly appeared in front of the sky-killing soul beast, and these illusions quickly wrapped up Mang's illusion.

Immediately afterwards. Mang's illusion was attached to other illusions, and it decreased sharply.

It takes less than one stick of incense. Mang's illusion completely dissipated.

The sky-killing soul beast showed a look of satisfaction on its face.

The Sky-Slaying Soul Beast had just devoured Mang's divine will, greatly increasing its own divine will, and then devoured this illusion, gaining a large amount of divine power. It was a double blessing.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Stone. I have benefited a lot from this. It seems that I need to retreat for a while!" The Sky-Slaying Soul Beast said with a smile.

Ishikawa nodded and took the Heaven-Slaying Soul Beast into the Immortal Mansion.

The appearance of the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast did not escape the attention of Liu Zhen and others, but they could not hear the conversation between Ishikawa and the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast at all.

Even so, it was enough to scare Liu Zhen and others.

They originally thought that it would take a lot of time for Ishikawa to break this illusion, and that he might even suffer some damage, but they never expected that Ishikawa would break this illusion without any damage.

And the time it took was extremely short.

Now, Chen Shang's true spirit is about to appear, and Ishikawa can collect Chen Shang's true spirit. And it may take a long time for them to get rid of the illusion in front of them.

By that time, Ishikawa may have already collected a large number of true spirits.

However, Liu Zhen quickly calmed down. Since Ishikawa was traveling with them, he would not let Ishikawa escape easily. Even if Ishikawa collected more true spirits, it would be meaningless.

Because Liu Zhen had already made up his mind to kill Ishikawa.

After the Sky-Slaying Soul Beast returned to the Immortal Mansion, Ishikawa saw a faint yellow mist appearing in front of him. This yellow mist was somewhat similar to the dust of stars, but it contained extremely rich spiritual power, even higher than that of high-level monsters of the same size. The spiritual power in the spiritual stone is several times richer.

This is probably what Liu Zhen calls the true spirit.

Ishikawa tried to absorb the mist rich in spiritual power, but found that the mist was extremely viscous and could not be used by himself at all.

Ishikawa was not too surprised by this, after all, this was the first time Ishikawa had seen it.

Then, Ishikawa tried to put this object into the Immortal Mansion.

But there are still some obstacles.

After Ishikawa pondered for a while, he tried to put these true spirits into the storage bag, but the result surprised Ishikawa. These true spirits still could not be controlled by Ishikawa.

This made Ishikawa feel a little strange.

Ishikawa can understand that he cannot be absorbed by Ishikawa or put into the immortal mansion, but it is a bit strange that he cannot be absorbed into the storage bag.

Ishikawa looked at the four people who were nervously trying to break the illusion, and he knew very well that these four people would never say anything to him.

After pondering for a while, Ishikawa used the simplest method to directly harvest these true spirits.

Unexpectedly, the result was far beyond Ishikawa's expectation.

This true spirit was actually subdued by Ishikawa.

Although it is only a ball the size of a thumb, it is extremely staring and has extremely strong spiritual power.

Another quarter of an hour passed before Ishikawa put away the fist-sized ball.

These true spirits cannot be stored in the Immortal Mansion, nor can they be stored in storage bags. If they are carried like this, they will definitely be discovered by the Mothers of Monsters and Insects.

At this moment, Liu Zhen also broke through his illusion and collected the true spirit without saying a word.

This is not his first time to collect true spirits, but collecting true spirits is not easy. Once one of the five people fails, or does not collect them completely within the time limit, these true spirits will automatically return to Sumeru.

You can only wait until the next time when the dust falls into deep sleep before you can collect it again.

Liu Zhen's collection of true spirits is not very fast, and his method of collection is similar to Ishikawa's.

Soon, Hua Lingran and the other three also broke through their respective illusions and gathered them together.

Their collection speed is not fast, but after all, five people are doing it at the same time, so the collection speed is very fast.

Half an hour later, the yellow mist was almost invisible.

Ishikawa collected a piece the size of a basin, Liu Zhen was the size of a bowl, and the other three were only the size of a fist.

But finally all the true spirits were collected.

Liu Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief. The thing he was most worried about finally did not appear.

For decades, Liu Zhen wandered among the Mothers of Demonic Insects and entered Chenshang's body more than once. This time, it was finally over.

Liu Zhen squinted his eyes and looked at Ishikawa. This monk, who didn't seem to have a high level of cultivation, gave him too many surprises.

Ishikawa acted decisively and did not act sloppily, which he admired very much, but it was just appreciation. At this moment, Ishikawa monopolizes most of the Chenshang True Spirit, which Liu Zhen absolutely cannot accept.

Huang Shenkun showed displeasure on his face. If he hadn't known that fighting was not allowed here, he would have attacked Ishikawa long ago.

Even so, the anger on his face was hard to conceal.

Liu Zhen cursed Huang Shenkun in his heart and said, "This is not a place to stay for long. We must leave immediately!" (To be continued...)

ps: Recommend a book by a friend, "Nine Heavens of Immortal Desire"

This is a book written by an old author under a new pen name. His previous books were very influential in TVB, and I have read them one by one. I believe this new book will not disappoint you fellow Taoists.
