The bamboo forest in front of you stretches for hundreds of miles, just like a large sea of bamboo.
Ning Fan has been to the Bamboo Sea in the Tree World and left behind some past events there. Now that he was moved by the scene, he couldn't help but have some memories.
There is a soul in the hollow bamboo; the soul takes root in the heart of the bamboo; the root of the soul, the heart of the bamboo, is inseparable...
I don’t know how the old tree spirit Muluo’s life has been since he reunited with his old lover... How are the relatives and friends in the rain world doing now... Is my mother awake... Is the Tao fruit planted by the master ripe...
Shaking his head, Ning Fan put away the distracting thoughts in his heart, slowly moved forward in the bamboo forest, and carefully observed the changes in the surrounding bamboo sea.
With his talent of supporting and breaking illusions, he is enough to see through the illusion pattern here. There are no immortal kings or phantom beasts here. In fact, even the bamboo sea in front of them is fake and non-existent.
Outside the bamboo forest, he thought he could easily see through the illusion of the bamboo sea with his talent of supporting.
However, once you step into the bamboo forest, you have a different feeling. The illusory bamboo sea suddenly gives people a very real feeling. Being in Lushan Mountain, Ning Fan couldn't see through the bamboo sea.
Gradually, Ning Fan's eyebrows became serious.
Although he has been walking in the bamboo forest for a long time, for some reason, he always feels like he is standing still, as if every time he takes a step, the entire bamboo sea will move with it.
There is a feeling that one has seen through the illusion of the Bamboo Sea, but after seeing through it, one often has no choice but to discover that one is actually still in another level of illusion.
No, it’s not just an illusion! It’s really just about standing still!
Ning Fan looked at the leather scroll map and found that there was still only a very small area that was lit up on the map. This showed that he seemed to have walked a long way in the bamboo forest, but in fact he was just standing still...
One stick of incense passed, two sticks of incense passed... Ning Fan circled around, but somehow, he walked out of the bamboo forest and returned to the original place.
Only then did he start to face the power of this bamboo forest's magic.
"This bamboo forest illusion seems not as simple as I imagined." Ning Fan thought to himself.
Tu Huang was speechless and said to Ning Fan, "Okay, boy, let me down. You have been wandering around here for half an hour. Even though the trial of illusion will last for a full month, you can't do this." It’s a waste of time. That’s all, after such a long time, I have somewhat adapted to the suppressive power of this place and can walk freely.”
After saying this, Tu Huang twisted his slender waist, jumped out of Ning Fan's arms, landed on the ground, moved his numb body, and then stared at Ning Fan strangely.
stare.
stare.
stare.
Ning Fan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and asked, "Why is the girl staring at me like that?"
"I'm looking at a freak, the most amazing freak in the world." Tu Huang replied seriously.
"Freak? Are you talking about me? I don't know what to make of this."
"Tell me, if there was such a person in the world. He was an illusion wizard who could even ignore such great illusions, but was stumped by the entry-level illusions. Would this person be considered a freak?"
"What is the Five Finger Illusion...and what is the Taixuan Illusion Technique?" Ning Fan asked with his heart moving.
"That's not the point. The point is, you are obviously very talented in illusions, but you don't seem to have systematically learned illusions at all. But is that so?"
"Well, it's true that I haven't studied illusions systematically... The girl has good eyesight." Ning Fan nodded.
"Good eyesight? It doesn't take much good eyesight to see through this. I'm afraid any illusion master among the first-level Immortal Emperors can see that your foundation in illusion is very shallow. I think your method of breaking illusions seems to be He only knows how to break illusions head-on. He doesn't even understand the most basic methods of 'attacking the void, hiding the reality', 'defending the reality and spreading the void', let alone 'the illusion of life', 'the illusion of death' and 'the eight thousand illusions of Taixuan'. It’s such a profound thing, just walking around in the bamboo forest won’t work.”
"Indeed, your illusion talent is very high. With your illusion talent, it is not difficult to forcefully break ordinary illusions. But you must know that many of the illusions in the Fire Soul Tower are the famous Taixuan illusions in ancient times. If If you don’t understand the deep-level principles of illusion, unless you are a far-reaching formation practitioner, there is no way you can forcefully break these ancient illusions..."
"Do you think that no one in the Sea Witch Club and the Fantasy Sea Club can see through the true situation of the Fantasy Bamboo Forest here? Are they really all afraid of the fake Immortal King Beast roar here, so they left in a hurry? I don't think of others. I know that there must be a few people in the Fantasy Sea Department who can see through the reality of the illusion here. After all, in the Fantasy Sea Department, there is an only copy of "Tai Xuan Eight Thousand Illusions, Part 2" preserved. There must be someone who can see through the existence of Tai Xuan Illusion here. Only then I decisively gave up on this place and chose to light up the map elsewhere.”
Attacking the weak and hiding the real, guarding the real and dispersing the virtual, illusion of life, illusion of death... Ning Fan had only heard these terms in ancient books before, and had no idea what they meant.
There are too few illusion masters in the Four Heavens, and the illusion inheritance passed down is even pitiful. These terms seem to be extremely advanced illusion knowledge. It is not surprising that Ning Fan does not understand these. The demon clan is very good at illusions, and has passed down a lot of ancient illusions. It is a pity that Ning Fan has never been to the upper world of demons. If he had gone, it is very likely that he would have learned the knowledge of these illusions...
As for Lao Shizi's Taixuan Eight Thousand Fantasy, Ning Fan promised that this was definitely the first time he heard this term.
Ning Fan knew very well that Tu Huang had said so much, probably because he wanted to give some advice, and of course he would not give up this learning opportunity. This is the Emperor of Illusion Master instructing him on illusions. If he could exchange this learning opportunity, Ning Fan believed that there were many old monsters in the world who would be willing to spend their money to come here to listen to the teachings of the Master of Illusion.
"Senior, are you saying that the illusion in this bamboo forest is not an ordinary fairy illusion, but the 'too mysterious illusion' mentioned by senior?" Ning Fan asked with a focused gaze.
"Yes, the illusion here is a kind of Taixuan illusion. In the ancient times, the Buddhist sect once had a wizard of illusion, known as Master Taixuan. This person's cultivation was not the best, but his understanding of illusion was not the best. Enough to stand alone in the world. This person collected more than 8,000 most powerful illusions in the world and compiled them into a book. After the book was completed, it was named "Tai Xuan Eight Thousand Illusions" and was divided into three parts: the first, middle and second parts. The first part recorded Illusion is the strongest, followed by the middle part, and the second part is the weakest. However, even the weakest Taixuan Illusion is enough to be used as a trump card magical power by a true immortal of the first level, Suinian."
"Because of the existence of Master Taixuan, later generations even regarded the title of Taixuan Illusion as a general term for powerful illusions, and the upper, middle and lower grades were classified as Taixuan Illusion. The Bamboo Forest Illusion here is just a low-grade Taixuan illusion. . If the person who casts the spell is slightly weaker, with your ability, you can forcefully break through this spell and walk deep into the bamboo forest. But unfortunately, the caster is the Fire Soul Tower itself... In this way, you only have Only by clearly understanding the reality of this illusion can we hope to break through this illusion."
"I know that you wanted to enter this bamboo forest because you sensed the treasure of deep bamboo in the bamboo forest. In this way, you follow me, and I will take you into this bamboo forest. Well... it still doesn't work. Although I can already walk, but In some places where you should move quickly, you cannot run too fast, and you cannot widen the distance between the virtual and the real of the illusion... That's all, if you hold me for a while and listen to my command, you can naturally enter the depths of this bamboo forest!"
Tu Huang walked directly to Ning Fan and said very calmly, "Hug!"
"...Oh." Ning Fan responded and hugged the Tuhuang horizontally again. Because of their previous experiences, neither of them was too embarrassed this time. They were very calm. The body fragrance of Tu Huang passed through the tip of their noses, and when they smelled it carefully, there was a hint of honey-like sweetness. In the past, my heart was restless, but I didn’t pay attention.
"What are you smelling!" Tu Huang frowned. Although she didn't mind physical contact between men and women, she didn't want to be teased by Ning Fan so openly.
"Sorry." Ning Fan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he was caught sniffing the other person's body fragrance, even though Ning Fan was very shameless.
"You don't have to mind it so much. If you want to hear it, it's not impossible. By the way, don't call me girly, just call me Qingling." Seeing that Ning Fan didn't mean to tease, Tu Huang didn't care. Instead, he teased Ning Fan.
"Well, isn't Qing Ling the girl's pseudonym? Could it be her real name?"
"Of course it's my real name. This is the only identity I pretend to have. The name is real."
"Haha, I thought the girl's real name was Tu Huang?"
"... In this world, would any woman have such a name... Slaughter Emperor is just my code name for participating in the blood martial arts arena. It is the same as your code name of Killing Fox, and it doesn't have much meaning. From now on, just call me Qing Ling, Chief Girl. He screamed, sounding upset. Well, I won’t call you kid anymore. Let’s call you by your name. After all, I’m asking for something from you, so I need to respect you a little bit. Okay, let’s stop chatting. The atmosphere of illusion here has changed. You move in the direction I indicate. Twenty steps south, eleven steps west, change direction, and enter the bamboo forest from this direction!"
Tu Huang in his arms commanded.
Oh, it seems that I can no longer call this delicate woman the Tu Huang. Even if the woman in front of me is murderous, I don't want to bear such a name.
Qing Ling is...
Ning Fan moved according to the direction instructed by Emperor Tu and entered the bamboo forest. Then, under Tu Huang's command, they moved closer to the depths of the bamboo forest.
"Nine steps to the west, one step back, two steps to the south, one step for three breaths, and go slowly."
"Three steps to the east, three steps to the west, two steps to the east, two steps to the west... take four breaths and take one step, then slow down."
"Seventy-nine steps to the west, walk quickly, ten steps with one breath!"
"Two hundred and twenty-seven steps to the east. If you move faster, you will take thirty steps in one breath!"
"Zi Ji!"
"Slow down!"
"Slash the thirteenth purple bamboo from the left with a wave of your palm!"
"Move this stone!"
Ning Fan felt confused and confused about Tu Huang's command, as if there was a barrier blocking him from understanding the beauty of it.
He held the beauty in his arms, sometimes as fast as a cheetah, sometimes as slow as a turtle crawling, sometimes east, sometimes west, sometimes destroying some bamboos. After walking for an unknown amount of time, a huge open space suddenly opened up between the dense bamboo gaps ahead.
Tu Huang said "We've arrived", jumped down from Ning Fan's arms, and looked around with interest.
Ning Fan's arms were lightened, and his hands were free, so he took out the map and looked at it. He found that with such skill, the area of the Magic Bamboo Forest on the map was all lit up. Apparently, under Tu Huang's seemingly incomprehensible command, Ning Fan has traveled hundreds of miles through the bamboo forest here, and finally came to the depths of the bamboo forest!
Here, the smell that attracted him to help him escape was even stronger.
Ning Fan put away the map, looked around, then raised his head, and suddenly his expression froze.
But above the open space, among the flying bamboo leaves, hundreds of illusory purple-black flying birds were dancing gracefully. They were all in the form of shadows, exuding a bright light, clear and clear in the air, as ethereal as an illusion!
Under the light of Yingying's wings, this place is like a dream, and the air is even more fragrant, refreshing and refreshing. Coupled with the surrounding purple bamboo, there is an ethereal and isolated beauty deep in the bamboo forest.
"What a beautiful place. I see it's like this because of the Cloud Blood Fruit." Tu Huang stretched lazily, turned to Ning Fan and said, "Boy... No, Ning Fan, do you know why this place is like this?" Are there so many ghosts of birds dancing?"
"Didn't the girl say it's because the Cloud Blood Fruit grows here?"
"Do you know what the Cloud Blood Fruit is?"
"have no idea."
"The Yunxue Fruit is a kind of innate elixir. It is a unique elixir of our Dabei tribe. Eating this fruit raw can enhance the monk's qi and blood, so as to achieve the purpose of strengthening part of the physical body. This substance is born from blood and must grow in The place where the Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses fell, takes the blood of the powerhouses as nourishment, and gradually takes shape. Then it absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, and slowly grows. When it matures, the spirit fruit itself becomes empty and turns into a phantom that fills the sky. As a source of nourishment, The blood of a strong person is different, and the medicinal effects of this spiritual fruit are also different. Looking at the phantoms of birds here... No, they are not ordinary birds. The shadows of these birds must be the kind of monsters... The evil spirits of the Feather Demon lineage, support Li! From this point of view, the effect of this Yunxue Fruit should be to increase the qi and blood in the eyes, which can greatly enhance the monk's vision, so as to achieve the effect of increasing the ability to see through illusions."
Ning Fan thought that indeed, these colorful and dancing fluorescent birds were the phantoms of Fuli. Presumably, the Yunxue Fruit growing here must have sucked the blood nutrients of the Fuli Monster, so it turned into some phantoms.
"The shadows of flying birds here are all transformed by the Cloud Blood Fruit. They are all empty but only real. If you want to collect this fruit, you must capture the only real flying bird shadow. Ning Fan, with your ability, you should be able to see which one The flying birds are the entities, right?”
"Let me try."
Ning Fan's illusion skills may be just like what Emperor Tu said, his talent is extremely high but his foundation is wrong. However, his ability to see through illusions was first-rate. His talent in assisting and breaking illusions, coupled with his powerful celestial and human magic purposes, made it easy to find the entity from the shadows of hundreds of flying birds. But he saw Ning Fan's figure swaying slightly, and then he stood still, as if he had never left the spot or jumped up, but he had caught a flying bird shadow in his hand from mid-air.
The flying bird silhouette captured by Ning Fan fluttered its wings. Now that it could not escape from Ning Fan's hand, it helplessly swayed and turned into a shiny, white and rosy fruit, like a baby's skin that can be broken by a blow. .
Obtained the Cloud Blood Fruit!
The moment he obtained this Cloud Blood Fruit, all the other false bird shadows disappeared.
Touching the slightly cold Yunxue Fruit in his hand, Ning Fan could feel the excitement emanating from his blood vessels. Obviously this fruit is formed using Fuli blood as nourishment. For others, taking this fruit only enhances the ability to break illusions. For Ning Fan, it also has the effect of enhancing Fuli's bloodline.
That's right, Tu Huang didn't lie to himself. As long as he touched this fruit, he could understand the many benefits of this fruit with the help of his blood...
It's not that I didn't think about swallowing this fruit all by myself, it's just...
Ning Fan noticed Tu Huang's eagerness towards this fruit and couldn't help but calm down, suppressing the eager desire in his blood.
It is true that he entered this place because of the Cloud Blood Fruit. It would be great if he could get this thing. But at the same time, he also understood that without the help of Tu Huang, with his illusion skills, it would be impossible to enter the depths of the bamboo forest and obtain the Cloud Blood Fruit.
This fruit should belong to Tu Huang.
"My illusion skills are not enough to enter the depths of this bamboo forest. I rely on the girl's guidance to enter this place. The girl seems to need this fruit, take it." Ning Fan smiled slightly and gave Tu the Cloud Blood Fruit. Emperor.
The way Emperor Tu looked at Ning Fan suddenly felt a little strange, as if he had seen such a generous person for the first time.
After a slight pause, a smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
"If it's an ordinary Cloud Blood Fruit, I don't care, but the effect of this fruit is somewhat special, and for me, it has quite a few benefits...but. You seem to need this fruit too, so why not, how about we each eat half of it?" "
"Eat half each?" Ning Fan was slightly surprised.
"This fruit can only be taken raw. Another disadvantage is that once harvested, it must be eaten within one stick of incense, otherwise it will wither quickly and lose its effectiveness. In our Dabei tribe, this fruit is known as the 'Epiphyllum among Fruits' His reputation is due to his ability to live and die. Don't waste time, it's settled, half for each person, you eat half first, and give the rest to me!" Tu Huang happily stuffed the Yunxue Fruit back to Ning Every hand.
If he hadn't inspected the fruit and found nothing unusual, Ning Fan would have almost thought that Tu Huang, who was so cheerful, had some kind of plan in the fruit to lure him to eat it.
After secretly investigating, Ning Fan felt sorry for his villainous heart, and the result was indeed correct.
Then he can safely eat half of it and let Tu Huang eat the other half?
Well, for some reason, Ning Fan actually made up that scene in his mind. Tu Huang's soft lips were slightly open, eating the remaining fruit with relish, with a cheerful attitude, and he didn't mind having his saliva on it...
"Girl, let's eat first." Thinking of this, Ning Fan decided that it would be better to let Tu Huang eat first.
Tu Huang took a deep look at Ning Fan, and after a moment, he smiled indifferently, "Ha, he is such a cautious boy..."
Are you afraid that I might tamper with the fruit, so you let me eat it first? Haha, this caution is not a mistake in the world of cultivation. Anyway, I wanted you to eat first so that you could eat more. Since you doubt me, I won’t be polite...
Thinking of this, Tu Huang stopped being polite to Ning Fan and ate most of the fruit after a while.
I ate about two-thirds of it, leaving only one-third for Ning Fan...
"I'll leave the rest for you, giggling, eat it quickly. Please note that when the time is up, the medicinal power of this fruit will be exhausted."
Ning Fan looked at the Yunxue Fruit with only one-third left in his hand, and his head was covered with black lines.
It was agreed that one person would be half of it!
A powerful man who majestically slaughters the emperor, who is halfway to becoming a quasi-saint, and a majestic emperor who holds the throne of illusion. Is it really okay to be so unfaithful to his words?
That's all, anyway, it was only thanks to Tu Huang's guidance that I could get this fruit for free. It was not bad to eat a third of it for free.
Ning Fan handed the fruit to his mouth and opened his mouth to bite it. Suddenly he noticed the incomplete edge of the fruit, with faint traces of rouge...
Then he raised his eyes and looked at Tu Huang's lips very strangely. If you eat it like this, it seems that you will eat the rouge of the Tu Huang...
"Eat quickly. After eating, we still have business to do. Although this illusion test will last for a month, it will take a lot of time for us to just rush to the bottom of the sixth floor of the tower." Seeing Ning Fan's delay. Without further ado, Tu Huang couldn't help but urged angrily.
She obviously mistakenly thought that Ning Fan was timid and cautious and did not dare to eat the fruits she had eaten. Thinking of this, she really wanted to grab the remaining one-third of the fruits and eat them! In vain of her rare kindness, she shared the proceeds from the treasure hunt equally with the junior in front of her, but the other party still doubted her, haha, haha... She really wanted to kill someone to vent her anger.
"This woman seems to have misunderstood something..."
Ning Fan shook his head and ignored the rouge on the fruit. He chewed it up and ate the remaining fruit in just a few mouthfuls until only the core was left.
The first impression is that this fruit is so sweet, with a blood-stained taste. It is obviously because the fruit is born from blood that it has this taste.
The second feeling is that the rouge is quite sweet, with the taste of honey. I don’t know what kind of rouge the Emperor Tu used. It seems that no matter how cruel a woman is, she is still a woman after all, and she can still wear makeup.
The third feeling... is that the medicinal power contained in this fruit is a bit too great! Thinking about it, this is an innate elixir. Even though it is only one-third, eating it raw like this is still a big deal!
Seeing that Ning Fan's face was red and bloodshot, looking like he had taken too much supplements, Tu Huang suddenly frowned in hindsight.
She had forgotten about this. With her half-step quasi-saint body, swallowing the innate elixir alive was not a big deal, but for Ning Fan, it seemed to be a bit of a burden.
"Cross your legs, meditate, move around the sky, and refine the medicinal power! That's all. This thing has other uses, so I'll lend it to you for a while! I can't use my cultivation at the moment to help you quickly refine the medicinal power in your body. This thing The saint's will contained in it is enough to speed up your refining of the medicine under oppression!"
It's also strange that Tu Huang didn't know much about Ning Fan's details, so he was worried about whether Ning Fan's life would be in danger if Ning Fan made too much supply.
Ning Fan knew his body very well and had long been prepared to refine the huge power of the innate elixir. Without this certainty, he would not have dared to take the innate elixir raw.
He originally wanted to deal with the huge medicinal power in his body by himself, but when he saw what Tu Huang took out, he gave up his original plan.
With the help of the saint's will provided by Tu Huang, the speed of refining the medicinal power can be accelerated. With these benefits, he will certainly not refuse, and he does not want to waste too much time in the magic bamboo forest refining the medicinal power.
However, Tu Huangtan opened his mouth slightly and spat out a stream of blood. It was hard to see what it was in the blood. It was wrapped and sealed layer by layer. Ning Fan's spiritual thoughts were unable to penetrate the seal and see clearly. .
Although he couldn't see clearly what the thing was, Ning Fan could really feel the huge will coming from that thing!
The will of the saint!
Once, in front of the True Fantasy River, Ning Fan quickly refined part of the Dark Star Fruit with the help of the Immortal Emperor's will provided by the river demon, and greatly improved his cultivation level.
Under the auxiliary pressure of the strong will, the blood and mana can flow faster, thus speeding up the refining of the spiritual fruit elixir.
The will of the saint is naturally far inferior to the will of the Immortal Emperor in terms of quality, but it is different in terms of quantity. The Immortal Emperor's Will collected by the River Demon from the True Illusion River was extremely diluted and mixed. However, the Saint's Will conveyed by the objects the Tu Emperor took out at this moment was so huge that it was unimaginable. It gave Ning Fan the illusion that he was actually there. It's like facing a saint!
In this way, the sense of oppression brought by the saint's will in front of him is, to a certain extent, greater than the will of the Immortal Emperor back then!
"Thank you!" Ning Fan said thanks while crossing his knees and refining the medicinal power in his body.
"Don't worry about these little things. You can treat my help to you as a bargaining chip in our deal. Okay, hurry up and refine the medicinal power in your body!" Tu Huang pretended to be relaxed on his face, and his delicate body trembled slightly. , In fact, at this moment, she couldn't exert any cultivation, and if she used this object rashly, it would be difficult to resist the will of the saint coming from this object.
However, in order to save time and let Ning Fan quickly refine the excess medicinal power in her body, she didn't have to worry too much.
With the help of this huge saint's will, it didn't take long for the medicinal power of the Cloud Blood Fruit in Ning Fan's body to be completely refined. After refining, Ning Fan could clearly feel that his eyesight was stronger, and he could see the changes in illusion and reality around him more clearly than before.
This is obviously the benefit brought by the Cloud Blood Fruit!
Of course, his Fuli bloodline has also improved to a certain extent because of taking this fruit, and even a little of the ancestral blood that was burned in anger in the ancient wilderness has been cultivated again!
He actually gained one-tenth of his ability through cultivation!
"Speaking of which, it seems that you haven't taken the reward you received in the blood martial arts arena yet. It's rare to unblock this thing once, so I'll just use the pressure of this force of will to refine all the elixirs in your body. , improving my strength more will be of great benefit to the purpose of my trip!"
Tu Huang seemed to be unable to bear the pressure of the saint's will. His pretty face turned pale, but he still pretended to be indifferent.
It was obvious that he had made up his mind and wanted to work hard to improve Ning Fan's strength.
Since Tu Huang had such good intentions, Ning Fan naturally did not intend to refuse. With a flip of his hand, he took out the Nirvana Stone Marrow and Thunder Tempering Body Fruit that were rewarded by the Blood Martial Arena one by one, swallowed them, and refined them!
The aura around his body is also nourished by many medicines and is constantly rising!
The skyrocketing cultivation aura turned into a strong wind, sweeping through the bamboo forest and sweeping across this place!
…
Outside the bamboo forest, a bloody light that ignored the power of the forbidden air swept over the ground and crashed down outside the bamboo forest.
As soon as the blood faded, a man with a mean and unkind face walked out. Looking at the bamboo forest here, murderous intent surged.
It's killing Bailou!
"What a delicious smell, haha. It's okay to hide in this bamboo forest. In that case, I will go into this bamboo forest and enjoy your delicious food!"
Sha Bailou licked his lips, his body swayed, turned into blood, and rushed into the fantasy bamboo forest, blood flames soaring into the sky! (To be continued.)
