At the end of the tunnel is a cliff. Under the cliff, there are endless beasts scrambling to climb up.
Everything in front of him was exactly the same as Tan Cong's previous nightmare, even the wailing sounds were exactly the same.
Qin Xiao had never experienced Tan Cong's nightmare just now, but his scalp still felt numb after seeing everything in front of him.
The alien beasts under the cliff look more like synthetic beasts. They all have human faces and animal bodies. Every alien beast that climbs up has an extremely twisted expression.
Qin Xiao has always hated synthetic beasts, especially those related to humans.
For a moment, the hatred deep in Qin Xiao's heart was aroused. He didn't understand why the Star Warriors in Endless City would do such evil things.
Even if this is just a virtual world, things like this are still very uncomfortable.
He forced his eyes away from his feet, and finally cast his eyes on the giant creature opposite.
On the opposite side of the cliff, there is a huge cross, hundreds of meters high, and it is impossible to tell what material it is made of.
But what was hanging on the cross was a being that made Qin Xiao's energy and blood surge even more.
What was on the cross was an enlarged version of the strange beast under the cliff. It was an extremely huge monster with a human face and an animal body.
After zooming in, he could finally see his body clearly. This monster's body was fused with at least hundreds of exotic beasts.
Her body still maintained a humanoid posture, but her lower abdomen seemed to have been blown up, with all the rotten flesh and internal organs exposed.
Huge flies that looked like calves were flying back and forth among the carrion, and the buzzing sounds the flies made contained the ability to interfere with mental power.
But the biggest mental disturbance still comes from the huge monster itself.
The monster's head looks like a human head, but this head has been enlarged dozens of times, which is obviously the result of modification.
It was a female head, one of her eyes was broken, as if it had been blown open, and the eyeball was hanging from the eye socket with rotten flesh.
Her mouth was opened wide, and a faint mist rolled out of her mouth.
Seeing the mist, Qin Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank.
He looked back at Tan Cong and found that Tan Cong had a look of panic in his eyes, but a strange smile on his face.
Qin Xiao only saw this smile not long ago.
He suddenly remembered what he had experienced in the Holy Temple Academy, and the situation in front of him made cold sweat break out on his forehead.
Qin Xiao drew out his Tang Dao and wanted to stab Tan Cong again, but he no longer dared to attack rashly.
He clearly remembered the news from Xiao Zhuer that many people really died after the strange incident in the Holy Temple Academy.
If that mysterious life really strikes again this time, if the person in front of him is killed by himself, he may really die directly.
After thinking about it, Qin Xiao finally made up his mind and stabbed Tan Cong's other thigh with a knife.
Tan Cong let out another exclamation. The severe pain made her completely unable to stand and fell directly to the ground.
Two legs suffered heavy injuries one after another, and it was all Qin Xiao's fault. Although Tan Cong knew that Qin Xiao had good intentions, he could not help but feel a little resentful.
But when she woke up completely, there was only gratitude on her face.
This knife made her realize that she had fallen into that weird dream again just a short time ago.
Because dreams and reality are very similar, it is difficult for her to distinguish them.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, there was no Qin Xiao beside her in the dream, which finally allowed her to distinguish between reality and illusion.
"What the hell is this place?" Tan Cong endured the severe pain in his thigh and asked with a cry.
Qin Xiao looked gloomy and didn't explain much.
All the current situations are just his guesses, and he doesn't want to share his guesses with others.
The strange beast under the cliff climbed up like a ladder, and was about to rush onto the cliff.
Qin Xiao took one look at the giant synthetic beast on the cross and finally chose to retreat.
Now is not the time to show off, he knows that he is definitely no match for that monster.
What's more important is that the faint mist in the monster's mouth makes him taboo. He doesn't even dare to confirm whether he is already in an illusion.
"Can I still leave?" Qin Xiao looked at Tan Cong and asked.
"I can walk, but not fast." Tan Cong said with a wry smile.
"Try to keep up and don't leave within one meter of me." Qin Xiao said coldly.
Just as Tan Cong nodded, he suddenly saw sparks appearing around him.
Before she could react, she saw the sparks suddenly explode and turned into a sea of fire.
Tan Cong stood up in panic, almost touching the surrounding fire. The burning pain woke her up, and she quickly moved one meter closer to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao turned on the fire storm and filled the entire tunnel.
The reason why Tan Cong was kept within one meter of him was because he controlled the Red Lotus force field to only one meter.
The fire storm unfolded completely in order to directly block the interference of the fog.
Qin Xiao is well aware of the horror of illusion. As his strength increases, his views on illusion have changed several times.
When he was a low-level star soldier, he kept secrets about illusions. After all, at that time, his mental defense was weak and he would be easily attacked.
After reaching the Broken Star Realm, Qin Xiao once despised illusions.
Even though his Red Lotus Kill included illusion-like star magic, he still didn't think it was an important killing move.
It wasn't until he met the Yingluo tribe that he was again in awe of this purely spiritual attack method.
Especially after entering Endless City, Qin Xiao has now raised his vigilance to the extreme.
Tan Cong didn't know what Qin Xiao was thinking. Her eyes were full of stars now.
Tan Cong is an astral magician, one of those astral warriors who only practice astrology.
Because he does not practice combat skills, the astromancer's close combat ability has always been criticized.
Tan Cong has always hoped to develop a star technique that can completely wrap himself up, but unfortunately his strength does not allow it.
Now that she saw Qin Xiao's methods, she was so excited that she even forgot about her current situation.
"Senior Qin Xiao, how did you practice this method?" Tan Cong asked enthusiastically.
Qin Xiao turned around and looked at her as if she were an idiot.
"How did you survive until now?" Qin Xiao asked coldly.
Tan Cong was stunned, not quite understanding what Qin Xiao meant, and explained naively: "I have been practicing in the academy and have never been on the battlefield."
Qin Xiao frowned and said two words lightly: "Force field."
"Can you keep the force field intact? Are all the seniors at Polu Academy so powerful?" Tan Cong asked with wide eyes. At this moment, there seemed to be little stars twinkling in her eyes.
Facing such a silly and cute little girl, Qin Xiao completely lost his temper.
"Shut up, if you keep talking nonsense I will take off your clothes!" Qin Xiao could only use his trump card.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Tan Cong immediately retracted his neck and followed Qin Xiao cautiously.
Soon after, Qin Xiao finally found the other members of the Polu Academy who were fighting fiercely. He rushed to the side of the team with a huge ball of flames.
After appearing, Qin Xiao immediately said: "Go quickly, it's very dangerous here."
Qi Hong was already very dissatisfied with Qin Xiao's "coquettish" appearance. Seeing Qin Xiao giving orders to him, he directly objected: "I won't leave."
