For half a day, Ning Fan still showed no sign of breaking through the first level.
In the lower Ulei Realm, Hongyi's eyes darkened slightly. He took out a blood-colored bronze mirror and pointed it, and the scene from the upper Cloud Realm vaguely appeared in the mirror.
In the first level of Thunder Palace, Ning Fan stood there with his eyes closed for half a day.
Outside the formation, there was an old man in gray robes who was sarcastic and mocking, controlling the illusion in the formation and bewitching Ning Fan.
The red-robed eyes were getting colder. If she was not mistaken, the gray-robed old man hiding outside the formation was the world spirit of Sulei Realm.
"Just a world spirit, if you touch my people, you are seeking death!"
Ning Fan was her subordinate after all, but being trapped by a mere world spirit really made her furious.
But she was in the body of a soul, and she didn't dare to rush into the upper cloud realm to help Ning Fan.
When his anger rose, Ning Fan's eyebrows moved. After half a day, he finally opened his eyes.
"True, fantasy."
Two demon stars appeared in his left eye, and two demon stars appeared in his right eye.
Above the eyebrows, two divine stars exuded traces of lightning.
He seemed to have some realization, but became more and more confused.
He looked at the two paper cranes in front of him. They had the same faces and the same smiles, and it was difficult to tell the real ones from the fake ones.
For half a day, he could not find any exit from the first level. The old man of World Spirit did not lie. If he wanted to pass the first level, he must kill one of the two paper cranes.
There are two paper cranes, one is a real shadow and the other is an illusion.
If you kill the real shadow, it will damage the luck of the paper crane's real body.
If the false illusion is cut off, this barrier can be broken, but Ning Fan is slightly reluctant.
He can kill billions of living beings, but there are some people he cannot kill.
The inner demon that existed back then was the illusion of a paper crane. He refused to kill him. Today, he is equally reluctant to give up.
Two paper cranes. One in plain clothes and one in white fox fur, after Ning Fan opened his eyes, they both walked towards Ning Fan. Their delicate faces still had the same childishness as before.
That childish, unsophisticated expression of innocence. It made Ning Fan's stone-like heart soften.
The two girls spread their smiles, as if seeing Ning Fan safe and sound was the greatest happiness in the world.
A paper crane was ashamed, and he mustered up the courage to hold Ning Fan's hand. His little hand was still as cold as before.
The other paper crane was angry, shy and happy. There was another hint of grievance, as if he was blaming Ning Fan for not coming back.
"Brother Fan. If you kill me, you can pass the first level." The two women told the truth calmly.
This fact made Ning Fan hesitate even more.
He has defiled himself and has shouldered countless sins. He can kill the world and bear infamy for thousands of years, but he cannot be ruthless enough to destroy Zhihe. Even the so-called paper crane is just an illusion.
His heart struggled even more with the Thunder Palace in front of him. Gradually it became blurred, and multiple hallucinations vaguely emerged.
The first illusion is the Hehuan Sect.
The second illusion is Qimei.
The third level of illusion is Ning Cheng.
Scenes of illusions continue to envelope Ning Fan, and the illusion Ning Fan falls into becomes deeper and deeper, making it increasingly difficult to extricate himself.
Outside the formation, the old man in gray robes sneered even louder, his sneer echoing in the illusion,
"Weak, too weak! You can't even bear to kill real shadows and false illusions, and you still want to break through the first level! With such a fragile mind, I really don't know how you got to this point!"
"Fragile?"
Ning Fan's eyes turned cold, but his heart gradually became peaceful.
The last illusion remains on the night of parting, under the grapevine, the paper crane murmurs a small wish.
"Brother Fan, when you come back from the Endless Sea, can you bring me a lily of the valley?" said the paper crane in plain clothes.
"The orchid grass in the Endless Sea, I heard that when the wind blows, it can make a sound like wind chimes, which is very nice... When I hear that sound, I know that you are back..." Fox Fur Paper Crane said.
Ning Fan closed his eyes. He thought he could tell which of the two paper cranes was the real shadow and which was the illusion. In the end, he found that all this was just an extravagant hope.
From the beginning, his heart never regarded the two paper cranes as phantoms, and he was reluctant to kill them.
Who is real and who is fantasy?
So what if you can tell, what if you can't tell... so what!
Now that they have made the distinction, will Ning Fan be willing to kill him?
There was a hint of warmth at the corner of Ning Fan's mouth. He stretched out his hands and caressed the side faces of the two paper cranes with the same doting attitude as before.
He would never hurt the paper crane, never. No matter she is real... or imaginary!
He activated the power of the mental formation, and gradually understood why this true illusion formation was able to find Ning Fan's weakness, transform into paper cranes, and confuse his mind.
It turns out that the power of this true illusory formation has invaded his heart and exposed his weaknesses...at a glance!
"Prying into the inner weaknesses and setting up illusions to seduce..."
The coldness in his eyes became deeper and deeper, and he pointed it into a sword, and a sword energy stabbed his heart. Immediately, his white clothes were stained with blood, and the blood flowed like a stream!
His heart was shattered by a sword thrust, the pain was piercing to the bone!
The pain could not make Ning Fan frown at all, he only shouted coldly,
"Get out of my heart..."
When the sword stabbed down, a formation of force was forced out of his heart.
A muffled sound of injury sounded at the same time. The injured person was none other than the old world spirit man who plotted to murder Ning Fan outside the formation!
The old world spirit man showed a look of horror. Since he was conferred the title of Su Lei World Spirit by Immortal Emperor Tai Su, he has seen countless monks enter the residual world of Su Lei.
No one has ever been able to break through Tai Su's three questions while controlling the formation power.
Because Tai Su’s three questions point directly to the weaknesses of people’s hearts!
No one in the world can give up their weaknesses. For a sentimental person, emotion is a weakness. For a ruthless person, indifference is a weakness!
The old man of the world spirit used the power of the formation to barely spy on the weakness in Ning Fan's heart, and used the power of the formation to conjure up a paper crane.
This formation of true illusion is extremely mysterious. With the help of the power of heaven, one reality and one illusion are condensed. Only by killing the illusion can the formation be broken.
Those who come must distinguish between real and illusion. If they cannot distinguish, they will kill the real shadow by mistake, and they will hurt the person who belongs to the real shadow.
In the past, those who broke the formation either killed the illusion indifferently, or were afraid of the difficulty of escaping, or after making repeated decisions, they finally managed to identify the illusion and kill it.
No one has ever broken his or her own heart like Ning Fan.
Multiple illusions were shattered as Ning Fan broke his own heart.
A stream of blood spilled from the corner of Ning Fan's mouth. This scene fell into the eyes of the two paper cranes, but it hurt to the core.
Whether it is a real paper crane. Still a fake paper crane, they all feel sorry for Ning Fan. Heartbroken.
Ning Fan's eyes were stunned. It became increasingly difficult for him to tell whether the two paper cranes were real or fake.
But, why distinguish?
"I can't tell the difference between truth and illusion, and I don't need to tell the difference. Whether it's true or false, I won't hurt her."
"The word true and illusion, that illusion is all vain and rootless obsessions. That truth is the realm that countless immortals strive for. I can't see through it, because my realm is still low. Do you think you can see through it? It's just a matter of practice. A world spirit in the early stage of virtuality. You are worthy of seeing through the real illusion!"
"Although I can't distinguish between real illusions, I have figured out how to make the illusion disappear. Fundamentally speaking, illusion is just to deceive people's hearts. The key to breaking illusions is to break the heart."
"What is truth and what is illusion? The mind is confused and illusions arise, and the mind sinks and illusions are destroyed!"
"Whether it is a real shadow or a false illusion, as long as it is your shadow, it is true in my heart. You are my truth."
The power of Black Star is added. Ning Fan's heart condensed, but this time, his heart was as hard as stone, no matter how fierce the power of the real and illusory formation was. Nothing can penetrate his heart!
He closed his eyes, his heart was like a flat lake without any ripples.
He opened his eyes, and the illusory formation shattered into pieces like glass, but neither of the two paper cranes disappeared.
Two women, are they both true?
When this thought arose in Ning Fan's mind, the two women began to disappear.
They are real shadows or false illusions, it is impossible to tell clearly.
It is this inexplicable and unclear realm, but it is the ultimate manifestation of the understanding of the two words truth and virtuality!
Ning Fan suddenly recalled the past scenes of his apprenticeship with Zi Dou.
When he was beheading the mortal world, he entered a dreamland, worshiped Zi Dou as his teacher, and learned the Feng Yan Finger.
There, he met his mother and paper cranes. He thought it was just a dream.
But Zi Dou said that the illusion may not be false.
"You entered the broken world from the endless sea, your mind entered the sea of clouds from the broken world, and your Taoist heart entered the illusion from the cloud sea. Among these, which one is true and which one is false? Have you really seen through it?"
"You may not be studying diligently at this moment, but you may be a dream, and you may not be killing people in the rain world, but you may be reality...Truth and reality are only in a thought!"
boom!
At this moment, recalling the words of Immortal Emperor Zi Dou, Ning Fan just vaguely realized that the sentence "Truth and emptiness only exist in a thought", I am afraid that the Tao has exhausted all the truth and illusion in the world.
Maybe the paper crane was just an illusion.
But when Ning Fan is obsessed with her, the illusion becomes the real shadow!
When Ning Fan's heart sank and his disillusionment disappeared, the illusion also returned to nothingness!
"Truth and falsehood are only in one thought. Maybe there is no distinction between truth and falsehood in this world..."
Ning Fan's enlightenment gradually emerged, but this period of enlightenment was cut off.
His realm is too low, he has just begun to understand the word 'virtual', and he is not qualified to ask about 'truth'. That word of truth is Daozhen, a path that only the Immortal of Life is barely qualified to pursue!
If we talk about the first step of a monk, what he seeks is immortality.
The second step of the monks is to seek a Taoist truth!
"Impossible! You let the illusion destroy itself without killing it! This is absolutely impossible! From ancient times to the present, the immortal masters who have come here have never seen the difference between reality and illusion. How did you do it! "
The old man of World Spirit said in shock and anger. He controlled the illusory array with all his strength to attack Ning Fan, but Ning Fan broke through the illusory array and was seriously injured.
The illusion formation was broken, and a thunder door appeared strangely in the Thunder Palace, which was the passage leading to the second level.
The old world spirit man was a little scared. Ning Fan could break the first level, and he might be able to break the second and third levels too!
He has evil intentions and plans to kill Ning Fan. If Ning Fan breaks through the three levels and finds him, Ning Fan will definitely take action against him!
Although the old man Jie Ling is in the early stage of cultivating the void and has a higher level of cultivation than Ning Fan, he has already seen that Ning Fan is not easy to mess with!
In addition, the old man's formation was broken and the backlash caused injuries. He was even more disadvantaged and unwilling to fight Ning Fan.
The old man already felt great regret in his heart, regretting that he should not have angered Ning Fan with his rebellious behavior.
It's just useless to regret it. The only thing he can do now is to use all his strength to activate the second level formation to stop Ning Fan!
"The second level is the question of immortals! Immortal Emperor Taisu's level is definitely not something that an ordinary person like you can break through!" the old man said with a ferocious smile.
"Immortal Emperor Taisu?" Ning Fan looked deep in thought. This true and illusory formation was extremely mysterious. It borrowed the power of heaven and was definitely not an ordinary immortal formation.
It turns out that the person who set up this formation was actually an Immortal Emperor.
So, the Immortal Emperor originally set up this formation to test the monks' understanding of the true and illusory way? No malicious intent?
It seemed that the only one who harbored ill intentions towards Ning Fan was the old world spirit man.
Looking at the thunder gate leading to the second level, Ning Fan put away his thoughts and walked calmly.
But just as he was approaching the Thunder Gate, a ray of lightning suddenly flew out from the Thunder Gate and landed on Ning Fan's palm, turning into a bloody fragment of thunder power. On top of the fragment, there was a faint trace of starlight flowing.
Starlight flashed and fell into the center of Ning Fan's eyebrows.
He originally had two divine stars, one was the Thunder Control Star and the other was the Yin Fusion Star.
But as the starlight shines into the center of Ning Fan's eyebrows, one-third of the bloody star actually condenses on the center of Ning Fan's eyebrows!
"Break the barrier of reality and illusion, and you can actually condense one-third of the divine stars!"
Ning Fan's eyes were moved. Could this divine star be the reward for breaking through the level?
Along with the condensation of the divine stars, an old and majestic voice spanned the ancient times and sounded in Ning Fan's sea of consciousness.
"I am the Taisu Thunder Emperor, and this star is your reward for passing the barrier. If you pass three levels in a row, you can condense the Taisu Thunder Star..."
"Tai Su Lei Xing?"
Ning Fan felt slightly surprised, activated a third of the stars, and a bloody arc of electricity immediately appeared in his palm.
The arc sizzled, and as soon as it appeared, Ning Fan was caught off guard, and one of his palms was directly burnt by the arc.
His physical body is so powerful, but it is easily injured by this arc.
This electric arc was the Heavenly Tribulation Blood Thunder that Ning Fan swallowed before. It had no such terrifying power, and it was even less likely to hurt Ning Fan.
The power of thunder...has been amplified and strengthened!
The initiator of the increase in Ning Fan's thunder power was the third of the Taisu Thunder Stars!
Only one-third of the thunder stars were condensed, which actually strengthened Ning Fan's thunder power several times. The number of thunder stars did not change, but the power increased.
Every bit of thunder power is several times more powerful than before!
If the Taisu Thunder Star is completely condensed, wouldn't Ning Fan's thunder power get an even more terrifying strengthening effect?
The first divine star is the attribute star.
The second divine star is the star of supernatural power.
The third divine star is the strengthening star!
"The old World Spirit should be punished. Taisu Lei Xing can be harvested."
Ning Fan spoke indifferently and stepped into the Thunder Gate.
The second level, the level of immortality...
…
In the lower Ulei Realm, Hongyi looked at the reflection in the bronze mirror, his bloody eyes shocked.
Ning Fan actually broke through the barrier of reality and illusion so perfectly, and the speed of breakthrough was even faster than her back then.
"Back then, I traveled across the rain world, but I could only stop at the third level. I could only condense two-thirds of the Taisu Lei Stars to be powerful in all directions. This child can condense one-third of the Taisu Lei Stars. Xing is already regarded as a peerless genius in the nine realms."
"If he condenses two-thirds of the Taisu Lei Star, his achievements in the future will not be weaker than mine. Thousands of years later, he will definitely be an invincible existence in the Rain Realm, which can make the Rain Palace tremble."
"If he can condense the complete Taisu Thunder Star, then this son's qualifications are unparalleled in the nine realms... No, he should not be able to do it. Since Taisu Thunder Emperor, no one has been able to condense the complete Thunder Star. , even I can only condense two-thirds of it."
The beautiful woman in red frowned, but her mind couldn't help but recall what Ning Fan said when he passed the first level.
The key to breaking the illusion is to break the heart.
What is truth and what is illusion? The heart is confused and hallucinations arise, and the heart sinks and disillusionment disappears.
You are my Daozhen!
With his cold and arrogant personality in red clothes, there was actually a hint of admiration.
"This man's cultivation may be low, but in terms of profound enlightenment, even I am not as good as him... Maybe, he can successfully condense the complete Tai Su Lei Star?"
For a moment, Hongyi was more concerned about Ning Fan's progress in clearing the level than getting the black gold bamboo leaves to heal his wounds.
Can Ning Fan do what she can't do?
