Wei Lin swung his sword to chop down the Yunxuewu pine and put it into his storage bag.
As it left, the barrier on the cliff in front disappeared.
He walked along the steps into the cave in the middle of the cliff. The temperature suddenly rose. Outside the barrier, snowflakes were flying and the cold wind was biting. Inside the barrier, it was as warm as spring and the warm breeze was blowing.
After walking about ten feet, the mud on the edge of the cave on the right was newly plowed. In the middle of the scattered mud was a fist-sized hole. Judging from the roots left under the mud, it should be a blue flower.
The end of his eyebrows moved. Someone had been here and dug up the blue flowers.
After walking some distance, we came to a fork in the road.
He looked at the descending steps and the empty cave in front of him, and then at the deep and narrow cave on the right. After thinking for a while, he raised his feet and headed towards the steps ahead.
After passing through several caves, large and small, all the way down, I finally came out of a cave and came to a platform with a radius of ten feet. There were scattered blue and purple moss on the ground. In addition to the moss, there were several moss on the edge of the platform. Small green plants are scattered among them.
There are light clouds floating in the sky, and there are several towering green peaks hidden among them. The falling wind and snow seem to be much gentler when they arrive here. The white snowflakes have already melted into the warm fragrance of flowers before they fall to the ground. .
He took a few steps forward, and a warm fragrance hit him. He immediately held his breath, raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and waited quietly for a while. Nothing seemed to happen, except for a few ethereal and cheerful birdsong. From time to time it resounds throughout the sky.
He walked slowly over and stood on the edge of the platform. Amidst the mist, he could vaguely see the faint platform on the opposite side. At a glance, he could see that there seemed to be three or two small wooden houses.
However, the two platforms are separated by a wide and deep cliff and ravine, and there is no road.
"Brother!"
A crisp voice sounded from behind, interrupting his thoughts.
Looking back, the girl in yellow and white clothes stood pretty by the shallow water diagonally behind her, tilting her head and smiling like a flower. As she moved, the willow-yellow necklace in her hair swayed, and the slanting branches above her head blocked the beautiful sunshine. The shadow of a leaf fell gently on her face, making her pink face look clearer and clearer, like a sweet and juicy pink peach.
"Ali?"
A strange feeling flashed through his mind, but he couldn't remember what was strange about it.
Seeing him standing still, the girl seemed a little unhappy. She glared at him angrily, pursed her pink lips, and said angrily: "What are you doing? Come here quickly!"
Suppressing the weirdness in his heart, he walked over, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where did you come from?"
The girl turned her head and pointed to the back, and said briskly: "It's behind here!"
"later?"
Wei Lin was surprised. The shallow pool was surrounded by some green grass and a few vine branches hanging quietly. Next to it were the rock walls on the side of the cave he had just walked out of and the sea of clouds outside the platform.
Wei Lin only felt that the weirdness in his heart was getting worse. The girl beside him nodded and smiled slyly, "Yes, you didn't expect it. There is a road behind this."
Wei Lin frowned and looked over, and was about to step forward. In the flash of lightning, he suddenly remembered that Ali's clothes turned into powder when he broke out of the egg.
He took a few steps back, drew his sword, and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
The girl turned her head, her almond-shaped eyes flashing with confusion, "Senior brother, what are you doing?"
Wei Lin was secretly shocked. The girl in front of him, her tone and demeanor, and even the way she tilted her head when confused were exactly the same as Ah Li. If the clothes hadn't revealed flaws, he wouldn't have been able to tell that she was fake!
Since entering Canglan Continent, they have been extremely poor. Except for the few sets of coarse cloth clothes they first bought from fishermen at Nanniwan Beach, they have never bought any more clothes. After entering Canye Pavilion, the sect only issued two sets of black-robed disciples. Clothes.
What's more, this yellow and white brocade ruqi with embroidered branch patterns is ordinary clothing and is incompatible with the elegant silk gauze skirts commonly seen in the world of immortality.
He ignored her and thrust his sword straight into the girl's heart.
His hand trembled slightly, knowing that it was not true, but when his sword was pointed at the familiar figure, his heart still couldn't help but ache for a moment.
He shook his head to get rid of these inexplicable feelings, and steadily controlled the sword to enter the girl's body.
However, the long sword seemed to be piercing the light and shadow without any resistance. He couldn't hold it back and almost passed through the girl's body. He quickly turned back and stayed away from the edge of the pool.
The girl still looked confused, as if she didn't know she had been stabbed. She just turned her head and shouted: "Why are you running? Come here quickly!"
No use?
Wei Lin pursed his lips, raised his hand and struck a few more swords. The silver light flashed across the girl's body, and the girl's figure stagnated slightly, cracked for a moment, and then became intact again.
Is this...a phantom? !
Wei Lin took a deep breath, sweat dripping down his back.
To put it bluntly, illusion is just a deception. When it is not seen through, it is naturally very dangerous and frightening. However, once it is seen through, it can instantly fall apart and defeat itself.
Now, he clearly recognized that this was an illusion, but why didn't the illusion disappear?
He glanced around and saw that the scene was exactly the same as what he saw at the entrance of the cave. Was the girl the only phantom?
With a trace of luck in his heart, he walked to the edge of the platform and looked around. It was surrounded by clouds and fog, and he couldn't see anything clearly. He didn't know how far away he was from the platform opposite. It was impossible to go directly there.
Thinking of this, he turned around and walked towards the cave he came out of before. Since the way forward was blocked, it was better to go back to the fork in the road and take another path.
However, he immediately hit the barrier.
Wei Lin: "..."
Well, it was a lucky break and it was undoubtedly an illusion.
He looked solemn, put away his sword, raised his hand and threw a fireball at the phantom.
Under the bright firelight, the girl's figure swayed and her figure enlarged. Then, the fireball passed through the girl, crossed the pool, and fell into the sea of clouds outside the platform.
The magic is useless!
Wei Lin's pupils shrank. Could it be that the key point was not the phantom?
He looked around carefully. The dark stone slabs were clean, blue-purple moss was quietly piled up, and green vegetation dotted the edges. They were similar to what he had seen along the way.
He cast his eyes on the shallow pool. This square pool was the only water that existed only here.
The girl by the water was still yelling tirelessly: "Brother, what are you doing? Come here quickly!"
There was a trace of hesitation in Wei Lin's heart. It was obvious that the pond was dangerous, but the reason could not be found elsewhere. Could it be that the key to breaking through the illusion lay in the pond?
After thinking about it, he took out a snowy ice cicada from his storage bag and threw it into the pond.
The pool water around the cicada corpse suddenly boiled and bubbled. In the blink of an eye, the ice cicada in the snowy area melted away, leaving no bones or residue.
And the water in the pool returned to calm.
Wei Lin's scalp was numb. If he had followed the phantom and walked in just now, wouldn't it be...
You definitely can’t cross the pond!
Wei Lin focused his eyes on the girl again. It seemed that the key to breaking through the situation was still the phantom.
"Phantom? Phantom, phantom..." Wei Lin muttered while frowning in thought.
Suddenly he stopped, his eyes gleaming with a little smile, only where there is light can there be shadow! If there is no light, where would the shadow come from?
Just for a moment, the phoenix eyes dimmed again. He raised his head and glanced at the bright sun in the sky, but how could there be no light?
Do we have to wait until dark?
Um? No, he healed his injuries. It was afternoon when he entered the cave. He walked all the way in the cave and lingered here for a long time. Why was the sun still above his head!
Wei Lin was shocked, could the time in the illusion be fixed?
Since the light cannot be extinguished, then the phantom should be separated from the light. Thinking of this, he put down his sword and made a seal with both hands. Green balls flickered on his fingertips, and then the spiritual power turned into vines and flew out from the fingertips, and from the top of the phantom's head. It began to twine, and as the rattan continued to twine, the phantom was covered bit by bit. When the last gap in the green rattan cage was filled, there was only a bang, and something collapsed.
Wei Lin turned around and saw that part of the clouds at the edge of the platform had dispersed. He was overjoyed that the illusion was broken!
