221 Ten Extremes (1/2)
Once the Illusionary Divine stage was attained, it would become extremely powerful. The spiritual monkey king, which once struck fear in Fang Yuan's heart, could not even withstand him now.
Regardless, Fang Yuan appeared calm.
In his actualised dream world, he composed himself and waved his hands. ”Dream elemental force!!!”
”Whoosh!”
His dream elemental force surged out like waves crashing, engulfing his actualised dream world in a thin layer of bewildering fog.
As the mercury-like dream elemental force was being consumed, the bottom was slowly revealed and everything seemed normal.
”Something's not right!”
Fang Yuan waved his hands, gathering a hint of dream elemental force. As the dream elemental force rose into the air, it glittered in the sunlight.
”Condense!”
As he concentrated, the dream elemental force fused in front of him, taking up the shape of a silvery mirror as it slowly expanded.
Following which, on the reflective mirror surface, a dim red hue flashed across like a tiny snake slithering about, bringing with it a sinister feel.
”Damn... the dark force!”
In the real world, Fang Yuan appeared depressed.
He had no more doubt that the dark force aided him in achieving a breakthrough to the Illusionary Divine stage!
”Like the spiritual monkey king, I am affected by the dark force too... This might just be the highest level of being possessed!”
Fang Yuan gritted his teeth. ”I need to find a way to get rid of it! And before that, I should leave the Three World Mountain as soon as possible!”
He did not want to end up like the spiritual monkey king and become a monster.
Although he was still clueless if his breakthrough was by accident or caused by the dark force, he wanted to leave Three World Mountain regardless, and the further the better.
At this point in time.
A purple glow rose from the east as the sun began to rise, pouring its golden rays across the vast mountains.
Fang Yuan could sense that the Illusionary World was already separating from the Three World Mountain.
Under the sunlight, the shadows slowly disappeared, and even the possessed spiritual monkeys started to faint. Black fogs were starting to rise from their heads.
”If not for the fact that this experience was extremely real, I would have mistaken it for a bad nightmare myself!”
Fang Yuan shook his head and returned to the spiritual monkey king's nest.
Many well-built monkeys were lying on the floor and all of them appeared to have suffered heavy injuries. Fortunately, all of them were still alive.
With his current Illusionary Divine power, it would be a snap of his fingers for him to deal with the monkeys if they decide to surround and attack him together. With confidence, he slowly walked into the cavern and began his search for survivors.
”Bang!”
A wall of shattered rocks broke open.
Seeing the disfigured corpse of Elder Zhou, Fang Yuan remain speechless.
Till his last breath, this person was still holding on tightly to his scimitar with a ferocious look, like a loyal guard.
”Rest in peace!”
Fang Yuan helped Elder Zhou to close his eyes before looking around. However, he could not locate the Qin siblings.
”Elder Zhou and the few Black Feathers Cavalry are dead... could the Qin siblings have a hope of survival?”
Turning around a corner, he found a pool of blood and a few miscellaneous items and shattered weapons. They seemed to be the belongings of one of the Black Feathers Cavalry.
The reason why these people were willing to die and be sacrificed was to fight for the survival of the Qin siblings.
”Based on where the spiritual monkey king has gone to, the amount of time that passed and the power of the other spiritual monkeys...”
Fang Yuan turned around and walked into the underground cavern.
The thick tree stump appeared destroyed, and the pool of wine within it was now empty. Its roots were now shrivelled and it looked extremely pitiful.
”It's not here?”
Using his magical will to sense the surroundings, Fang Yuan frowned. With the wave of his hands, a spiritual spell appeared. ”That's alright... Let's test this spiritual searching spell out!”
This was the power he had after achieving the Illusionary Divine stage!
As long as he had enough dream elemental force, he could reproduce any spiritual spell which he had come across before.
After drawing it out in his actualised dream world, he would be able to actualise it in the real world!
With this ability alone, he would be able to defeat most spiritual knights from the Elemental Opening Realm.
”Weng!”
As his spiritual spell exploded, a white flash was seen.
With the wave of his sleeves, two spiritual auras appeared before dissolving in the white flash.
It was important not to let one's guard down!
These two spiritual auras were secretly obtained from the Qin siblings, and he had done so to prevent them from secretly attacking him.
However, from the looks of the situation, it seemed that these two spiritual auras were needed to initiate the spiritual searching spell.
”Whoosh!”
The white flash condensed into a ball of light, which then casually floated. Suddenly, it floated above the empty wine pool, circled it before it stopped moving.
”Eh?”
Fang Yuan was surprised. As he leapt into the dry pool, he remained speechless looking at the moist walls and smelling the wine fragrance.
In the middle of the wine pool, the ordinary looking base of the pool felt soft, as though there was a warm body underneath it.
Feeling the base with his right hand, he quickly grabbed on to something before pulling it up.
A bright flash appeared and suddenly, there were two other people underneath; they were the pale-looking Qin siblings.
Their eyes were shut and they were shivering as though they were in a nightmare. Most of their protective talismans were already destroyed and they appeared extremely weak.
”This concealment cloak...”
