145. Mirage
In the sea of sand, this strange scene suddenly appeared, everyone was surprised, but also had many doubts in their hearts, yes, nine people and one tiger, just standing in the distance, did not dare to act rashly.
Ye Qingyue quietly released her divine sense, feeling it little by little, to see if there were any traces of illusion or formation blessing in front of her.
The bead chain made of 10,000-year-old pure heart wood stayed quietly on her wrist, and a little blue-green shimmer scattered and seeped into her body from time to time.
Soon, Ye Qingyue discovered that the scene ahead did not seem to be an illusion or a formation, but it was like an image reflected on the water, real but illusory. After a while, the scroll seemed to shake slightly, as if there was a ripple on the water, and then vanished.
It was as if a mirror trembled, and even the green mountains and green waters in the mirror shook slightly for a moment.
There is no power of the rules unique to the phantom array, it is not a formation, it is not an illusion, it is as if there is a mirror projecting the distant mountains and rivers in front of them.
"Mirage?" Ye Qingyue said in surprise.
"Mirage? Can you be sure? Zhang Heng asked cautiously.
Ye Qingyue shook her head slightly: "I don't feel any traces of illusions, they seem to be very real, and the breath they give people is the same, but what appears is too abrupt." There are also quite a few irrationalities. ”
"Mirage? What is that? Is it the same as Illusion? Mu Sanniang asked.
"It's similar to what mortals call mirages, except that mirages are more real because they are images that have existed in real life." Ye Qingyue explained.
A mirage is different from an illusion, which uses a specific formation or medicine. It induces people's consciousness or eyes to wake up some sleeping things in people's hearts, forming a special small environment.
Those who stand outside the phantom cannot see what the people inside see. The illusion just makes the people in the formation mistakenly think that it is real, and it is still false in nature.
Mirage, on the other hand, is different. The scene in the mirage is real, but it is put in front of you by some special means. They were real in another plane, but not here.
It's like a picture. Or a realistic painting. Merely. The mirage reproduces not only the lines and colors of the two-dimensional plane, but also the volume, taste, sound and other factors of the three-dimensional plane. Even when they walk into a mirage, they look lifelike.
And the illusion. It's the equivalent of creating a painting with a pen and paint. You can express only what you want to present. Just look at the person who painted it. It's good to think it's real.
Mu Sanniang nodded as if she didn't understand: "But, how can there be a mirage here?" Isn't there really a demon beast that can swallow mirage? ”
"It is said that there is a demon beast in the Northern Wilderness. It is called a mirage, also known as a shapeshifting beast. It is a second-order demon beast when it is born, and it reaches adulthood when it reaches the third order. When it is a minor, the pure-blooded mirage can change into a body shape at will, and when it becomes an adult, when it forms a demon pill, its body appearance will be fixed, and it will no longer change unless it breaks through the Great Realm again. They are large and sometimes choose some special shapes, and the mirage we see may be the appearance of a mirage as an adult. Liu Mingzhu said.
"You're saying that the oasis we see could actually be a mirage?" Mu Sanniang asked.
"Maybe! The pure-blooded mirage has a natural supernatural power, called Shifting Flowers, which can realistically simulate the appearance of a certain place, without traces of the phantom array, which is difficult to identify. "Liu Mingzhu is obviously very knowledgeable.
"Captain, let's stay away from it, right?" There is humanity.
Ye Qingyue nodded, and she pointed to a few red thorny bushes scattered in front of her.
"You see, it's the fire tree. It can only grow where the fire aura is abundant. This shows that this place is full of fire. In the desert, most of the water sources come from meltwater from ice and snow or underground water veins. There is no snow or ice here, and such a large river means that there must be an abundance of water underground. The water source is abundant, and the water spirit power must be abundant, and there is likely to be a water spirit mine underground. Water and fire are mutually restrictive, and in a place where water is full of spiritual power, it is impossible for such fire-loving plants to exist. ”
So what they see is false nine times out of ten.
"Hahaha......" A burst of laughter sounded, and the oasis presented in front of them suddenly dissipated, and a handsome young man appeared in front of them with a graceful demeanor.
"Nice little ones! I can actually recognize my old man's real body, which is much better than the previous batches of waste. ”
The momentum of the demon cultivator belonging to the Yudan period rushed to his face, like an invisible big palm, pressing down from above. Although it was not as sharp as a sword, it steadily enveloped their figures, completely controlling every corner of the big hand in their hands, and several people turned pale.
In this hand, there are already vague rules of the realm. This demon beast is not only not low in level, but also has good qualifications and bloodlines.
"Dare to ask seniors, what does this mean?" Zhang Heng settled his mind and said.
"Huh? Aren't you Terrans at war with our demons? Say, "What is this king doing here?" The young man Lang Jun grinned and said.
Zhang Heng didn't know how to answer the call.
Since this demon didn't do anything to them, I'm afraid it has other plans. Ye Qingyue fixed his mind and said: "The mirage dragon belongs to the Jiaolong lineage, and it is a nobleman in the Northern Wilderness. ”
"The little girl is smart and tight." The young man Lang Jun looked at her for a while, and said: "This king is the little prince of the Northern Mirage Dragon lineage, and my Mirage Dragon Clan once had an agreement with one of the great powers of your Terran that this clan will not take the initiative to be the enemy of the Terran and participate in the crusade of the Demon Clan against the Terran. This time, I came here for the news of a treasure in the clan. ”
He handed over a jade slip and said, "I want you to go to the Ancient Cave Mansion of Venerable Minghua of the Flame Mountain and bring out the treasures of my clan." This is detailed information about treasures and ancient cave houses. All I need is the treasure, and if you are lucky enough, you can keep the rest of the loot you have obtained. In addition, I have a lot of gratitude. ”
Several people turned out to be jade slips, and they were passed on one by one.
Venerable Minghua was a great power of the Transformation Stage tens of thousands of years ago. Once fought against a patriarch of the Mirage Clan, the Mirage Patriarch made a mistake and made a promise that as long as the Terrans did not take the initiative to provoke, the Mirage would not participate in the previous Northern Wilderness Beast Tide. One man and one beast cherish each other, and they are irreversible to each other.
The purpose of their trip was the set of magic recipes that Venerable Minghua had obtained from the Mirage Patriarch back then, the Chaos Heart Sutra that had been lost in the Mirage Clan. (To be continued......)
