"It's really strange. Could it be that we are lost?"
"Have you been wandering around here all this time?"
Meng Zhishan had actually had doubts for a long time. Now that Lin Ran said this, she was even more sure that this was the case. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to walk for several hours without seeing the end.
Even the surrounding scene has not changed much, except that there are many more corpses.
"No, it shouldn't be possible to get lost. There is nothing complicated in this corridor, it's just a matter of going straight."
"But that's it, we keep walking inside, and there is no exit at all."
"I now suspect that we may have fallen into an illusion."
Lin Ran suddenly remembered this situation at this time, and his expression immediately became serious.
"Then what should we do? If we can't leave the illusion, won't we have to stay in this tunnel forever?"
"Lin Ran, do you think this is how these corpses died?"
When Meng Zhishan heard this, her brows immediately wrinkled and she started to feel a little nervous.
"These corpses obviously had a fierce battle before they died. They should not have been trapped here forcibly."
"There should be something strange in this corridor, maybe it's not just an illusion."
Lin Ran looked around and carefully observed the corpses.
"Let's do an experiment and leave some marks on the surrounding stone walls. If we come back here later and see these marks, there is no doubt that we must have fallen into some kind of cyclic illusion."
"In this case, it is impossible to continue walking. We must find a way to crack it. Otherwise, even if there are no other dangers, we will be trapped and die here."
As Lin Ran spoke, he activated the Seven Saints Thunder Body to condense a lightning dagger in his hand, and used his strength to draw some marks on the surrounding stone walls.
Then he didn't stay here anymore and continued walking forward with Meng Zhishan.
...
Just like that, several more hours passed.
But unfortunately, Lin Ran and Meng Zhishan still did not come out of the corridor. The surroundings were still dark, there were even more corpses, and the smell of blood and corruption became stronger and stronger.
Fortunately, both Lin Ran and Meng Zhishan activated their Star Spirit Power Armor, which could resist this aura, so they didn't feel too uncomfortable.
"It seems that our guess just now is true. We are indeed trapped in some kind of cyclical illusion."
After Lin Ran noticed the traces left on the stone wall of the corridor, his expression immediately became solemn, and he did not continue walking forward, because Lin Ran understood that if he did not break this illusion, he would not be able to leave at all, and it would be a waste to continue walking. time.
But at this moment, something strange happened. Lin Ran had obviously stopped, but Meng Zhishan kept walking forward. It seemed that she didn't hear Lin Ran's voice at all, nor did she see the words left on the stone wall. traces.
"Um?"
"Zhishan?"
Lin Ran was stunned for a moment, thinking that Meng Zhishan didn't hear it, and immediately shouted.
However, Meng Zhishan still showed no reaction and continued to walk forward.
"No, this corridor is really weird!"
When Lin Ran saw this, he was immediately horrified. He quickly ran towards Meng Zhishan and grabbed her hand.
The next moment, Lin Ran saw Meng Zhishan's pupils, which turned completely gray at this time, as if she had lost her soul, walking in the corridor like a zombie.
Not only that, Meng Zhishan's originally gray pupils, who were being pulled by Lin Ran, slowly turned red at this moment, and the poisonous energy in her body immediately became violent, and she directly attacked Lin Ran.
When Lin Ran saw this scene happening, he immediately understood everything.
These corpses that died in the corridor must have entered into a strange state like Meng Zhishan, started fighting without distinction between the enemy and ourselves, and finally killed each other.
As for why Lin Ran was not affected, Lin Ran had more or less guessed it. It should be that his cultivation was strong enough and he had reached the quasi-supreme state. At the same time, because of his spiritual training and Guiyuan Jue, his mental power was very strong. This was not affected at all.
After Lin Ran discovered this problem, he easily subdued Meng Zhishan without any hesitation, and then condensed powerful star power with his right hand and pressed it on Meng Zhishan's head.
The powerful star power was injected into Meng Zhishan's mind, which immediately stimulated her. Her originally red pupils gradually returned to normal, and Meng Zhishan also regained consciousness at this time.
After seeing Meng Zhishan wake up, Lin Ran quickly withdrew his star power to avoid actually damaging the starry sky map in Meng Zhishan's brain. Her starry sky map was already damaged. If she stimulated it, the consequences would be disastrous. Lin Ran didn't dare to A little sloppy.
"I...what's wrong with me?"
Meng Zhishan rubbed her eyes as if waking up from a big dream, and looked around blankly.
"You seemed to be being controlled just now. Can you tell me what you felt just now?"
Lin Ran asked after helping Meng Zhishan up.
"I don't know, I just walked next to you. As time went by, I felt more and more sleepy as I walked, and then I couldn't help but close my eyes. I don't know what happened next."
Meng Zhishan had no idea what had just happened. If Lin Ran hadn't mentioned it, Meng Zhishan would have just fallen asleep because she was too tired.
But looking at Lin Ran's nervous and solemn expression, Meng Zhishan also understood that something big must have happened just now.
"I understand, it seems that this corridor is indeed extremely dangerous!"
"If I'm not wrong, there may be some kind of enchantment in this corridor. When we opened the black door, the enchantment was activated. Then after we entered, we fell into an endless cycle of illusions."
"In this illusion, our mental power should continue to be consumed. Once our mental power is exhausted, we will be counter-controlled by the illusion, and eventually we will lose our minds and start killing each other."
"These corpses should have been controlled by the illusion, and then they started killing each other, and finally they all died miserably in the corridor."
"And the reason why we see these corpses is to put us in an extremely nervous and frightened mood. In this way, our mental energy will be worn away faster, and death will be closer to us faster."
Lin Ran understood everything at this time, and explained seriously to Meng Zhishan beside him. At the same time, he kept observing the surroundings to see if he could find a way to break the illusion.
When Meng Zhishan heard Lin Ran's words, she showed a horrified expression. She felt that this supreme secret realm was really too scary. No wonder those who came in before basically had difficulty getting out alive.
Just this terrifying illusion alone would probably kill more than half of the people.
