Chapter 1100: Old Trick

Ye Yuan's divine sense spread out, and under the state of unity between heaven and man, the surrounding situation was completely clear.

Pausing briefly, Ye Yuan activated his movement technique and sped off in one direction.

He discovered a cave not far away.

Ye Yuan's current condition was very poor; he needed to find a safe place to rest for a while.

"Ye Yuan, you damned bastard, you're a vampire! When you need me, you force me; when you don't, you kick me aside! Ahhh, how did I end up on your pirate ship!"

In Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness, the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil roared.

Toward this ancient-level primordial spirit, Ye Yuan's precautions were still very strict.

All along the way, the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil had been shouting nonstop in his sea of consciousness, appearing very aggrieved.

"Shut up!" Ye Yuan snapped coldly as he entered the cave.

Sensing Ye Yuan's fierce killing intent, the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil realized Ye Yuan was truly angry and immediately fell silent.

"How long can your Mirror Flower, Water Moon hold?" Ye Yuan asked coldly.

If those people didn't have divine artifacts, they would never escape the Mirror Flower, Water Moon in a short time.

But the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation was the bane of illusions; once they realized they were trapped in an illusion, the Mirror Flower, Water Moon wouldn't hold them for long.

That was why Ye Yuan fled to the fourth level instead of the second.

Fleeing upward was a dead end.

And the fifth level—these people absolutely dared not enter!

But with Ye Yuan's current state, he couldn't even reach the fifth level; they would surely catch up.

The Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil said confidently, "My Mirror Flower, Water Moon is a divine-level illusion, silent and subtle. These rookies will be trapped for at least ten days to half a month!"

Ye Yuan's face turned cold: "I don't have time to bullshit with you. If you keep bragging, I'll destroy you directly!"

The Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil immediately put on a smiling face and said, "Ha...haha, brother, calm down, calm down. Um...that...with their Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation, I estimate at most a day."

Ye Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Now, shut your mouth!"

With that, Ye Yuan took out three pills and began to heal.

Ever since obtaining the Sacred Dragon Token, Ye Yuan had basically kept pills for replenishing blood essence on hand.

Fortunately, he had only lost one-tenth of his blood essence, so replenishing it wasn't too troublesome.

The real trouble was that he had used the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil's power to cast Mirror Flower, Water Moon, which placed a huge burden on his body.

With only one day, Ye Yuan had to race against time.

The Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation could traverse space; once they broke free, they would catch up quickly.

As the pills entered his stomach, Ye Yuan's blood essence gradually replenished, and his body slowly recovered.

...

"Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil! That kid must have obtained the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil! He entered the Sun-Moon Bright Realm and must have gotten the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil! Damn it, we're trapped in an illusion!"

Zhao Lingdong suddenly shuddered, finally grasping that spark of inspiration.

"What, we're trapped in an illusion? Zhao Lingdong, are you kidding? Ordinary illusions are completely exposed before the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation!" Mo Er'tong said disdainfully.

Zhao Lingdong said coldly, "What if it's not an ordinary illusion? Don't forget, the Sun-Moon Heavenly Pupil once belonged to a divine path powerhouse!"

Zhao Lingdong's words startled the Three Freaks of Demon Ridge.

Their expressions turned grave; if it was truly a divine-level illusion, they might indeed be trapped in it.

"What are you standing there for? Er'tong, use the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation to break the illusion! Remember, use divine essence!" Zhao Lingdong reminded.

Mo Er'tong was startled and quickly injected divine essence into the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation, which immediately emitted rays of light.

The surrounding space rippled outward from the mirror.

Feeling the changes in the mirror, Mo Er'tong was shocked.

They really were under an illusion!

This illusion was extraordinary; they, a group of Void Xuan powerhouses, hadn't noticed a thing!

Clearly, Zhao Lingdong hadn't noticed either; he had guessed it from some clues.

Mo Er'tong was deeply alarmed; if they hadn't brought the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation this time, he didn't know how long they would have been trapped in this illusion.

Now, he finally understood how troublesome a Son of Destiny could be.

His previous contempt for Ye Yuan was completely swept away.

Not just him, the others were equally shocked.

Ye Yuan was too terrifying, toying with five Void Xuan powerhouses in the palm of his hand!

No wonder the Divine Lord valued Ye Yuan so much, sending them with three divine artifacts.

A day later, Mo Er'tong finally broke the illusion with the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation.

Looking at the ground, where was Ye Yuan's corpse?

"Quick, chase! Luckily, Zhao Lingdong reacted quickly; we weren't trapped long. He shouldn't have reached the second level yet!" Mo Datong said.

The other two nodded in agreement and were about to set off in pursuit when Zhao Lingdong stopped them.

"Wait!"

"What's wrong?" the three were startled.

"I think he wouldn't flee to the second level," Zhao Lingdong said.

The three were startled again: "Not the second level? Would he flee to the fourth level? If we block him inside, he'll be dead for sure!"

Zhao Lingdong shook his head: "He knows we have the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation; fleeing to the second level is absolutely impossible! If I were Ji Qingyun, I would seek survival in death and flee downward! As long as he reaches the fifth level, we absolutely dare not go down."

Before, the Three Freaks of Demon Ridge would have scoffed at Zhao Lingdong's words.

But now, they were completely convinced by Zhao Lingdong.

The Divine Lord had told them to listen to Zhao Lingdong for a reason.

If not for Zhao Lingdong, they wouldn't know how long they'd be trapped in the illusion, and by then, it would be too late.

"Alright, we'll listen to you! Let's go, down to the fourth level!" Mo Datong said.

"Everyone be careful; this kid is very tricky. We don't know how many trump cards he has left. On the fourth level, we can't let our guard down!" Zhao Lingdong warned.

...

With a flash of light, Zhao Lingdong's figure appeared on the fourth level.

But his brow was tightly furrowed. Because the Three Freaks of Demon Ridge had disappeared!

They had clearly entered through the teleportation array together, so why were they all gone when they came out?

Not only the Three Freaks, but even the Sky-Barking Hound that had been following him was nowhere to be seen.

Zhao Lingdong sensed something was wrong!

"Could it be... another illusion?"

With Mo Er'tong holding the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation, what use was an old trick?

Moreover, this illusion was clearly not as powerful as the previous one.

But Zhao Lingdong knew that Ye Yuan would never act without purpose.

He definitely wouldn't do something useless.

So, what was Ye Yuan trying to do by pulling this stunt?

Suddenly, Zhao Lingdong's expression changed: "Damn! The Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror of Annihilation in Mo Er'tong's hands poses the greatest threat to him; he must be targeting Mo Er'tong! No, I can't let him succeed!"
