Chapter 8: Phantom Mood
The next day, Ling Zhu came to a hidden dark room, and the passage at the entrance was crooked, and there was not a trace of noise here, and there was no figure in sight.
"This attic doesn't look that big, I didn't expect so many mysteries in it. Ling Zhu thought that if the boy hadn't told him about this place yesterday, it would have been difficult for him to discover this place on his own.
"This is the illusory state of mind?" Ling Zhu said in his heart, "I heard Master say that the most magical place in the Holy Fire Hall is this illusory state of mind, which was created by a peerless powerhouse with great mana, I don't know what is so strange. ”
This secret room is huge, it seems that there is a hidden space inside, Ling Zhu opened the door of the secret room with the opening method taught by the boy, only to see that there is a wide stone wall passage inside, the stone wall is carved on both sides of the image of many weapons, and there are also holes, Ling Zhu looked at it, these small caves can probably accommodate several people sitting in it, and there are more than ten or so of them.
At this time, a short, round-faced young man came out of a cave, and he was slightly stunned when he saw Ling Zhu standing here.
"Ling Zhu, you came to the Illusory Mind Realm Trial so early?" the round-faced young man asked.
"Yes, hello senior brother!" Ling Zhu said politely, he remembered that this person was also in the hall when he was instructed.
"My name is Xu Xiaobu, the sixth stage of the spirit, and I have been in the Holy Fire Hall for a year. Xu Xiaobu grinned.
Seeing that Ling Zhu was very curious looking at the caves on these stone walls, Xu Xiaobu smiled and said, "Ling Zhu, is it the first time you have come here to try? Let me introduce you to this illusory state of mind." ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xu. Ling Zhu thanked.
"Well, you're welcome," Xu Xiaobu thought for a while, and said slowly: "The Illusory Mind Realm is the most important place of trial in our Holy Fire Hall, and it is also specially created for us by the sect, there are eighteen cave heavens here, representing eighteen soul levels, by the way, you don't know the soul yet, right?"
"Well, please give me advice. Ling Zhu was very modest.
"To put it bluntly, the soul is the spiritual will, and the cultivation of the soul power is also very important, so to speak, the monk of the same level will almost win against the side with the strong soul power, and the soul power involves the realm of the monk's soul, which is mysterious and indescribable, and even I am not very clear about the complexity. But the benefits of increasing my soul power can be seen, since I was tested in the Illusory Mood Realm, my soul power has been enhanced, and the power of the attack method has obviously become much stronger. ”
"It can enhance combat effectiveness, and this mental power is indeed very important. Ling Zhu nodded.
"Yes, this illusory state of mind eighteen caves is such an existence, each cave has been transformed by great powers, you only need to sit down quietly when you enter it, and after relaxing your spirit, you will enter an illusory world, there are many tests in it, as long as you pass the test, your soul power will be enhanced, and every time you pass through one more cave, the benefits of your soul power will be more!" Xu Xiaobu's eyes were full of expectation.
"This illusory state of mind is really powerful! It is also the disciples of the Holy Fire Hall who have this kind of treatment, and those inner disciples outside have probably never heard of such a place. Ling Zhu thought secretly.
"Senior Brother Xu, then I'll try it first. Ling Zhu said to Xu Xiaobu, then walked to a cave with no one and sat down cross-legged.
According to Xu Xiaobu, Ling Zhu's spirit relaxed, and after meditating for a while, the world around him suddenly changed greatly, and a large green grassland appeared around! In the distance, a group of cattle and sheep were grazing with their heads bowed, and the blue sky and white clouds above their heads were distinct, all of this was too real!
However, Ling Zhu clearly knew that he had entered the illusory world created by the illusory state of mind!
"Welcome to the Virtual Realm for the first time, Young Cultivator. Suddenly, a voice sounded, and I saw a figure suspended in the grassland in front of Ling Suke, this figure gradually became clear, it was a tall warrior in a red robe, holding a wide steel knife with his hands crossed, his face was cold, and his eyes were not emotional.
"It's so real. Ling Zhu whispered softly.
The red-robed warrior spoke: "Let's start the trial, your topic is to defeat me, I am a fifth-stage spirit realm, as long as you defeat me, even if you pass the first cave heaven, you can get a reward for enhancing your soul power." ”
Ling Zhu smiled, stretched out a hand and said, "Please!" The same fifth stage, Ling Zhu is full of confidence, and he is not afraid of anyone when fighting at the same level!
The red-robed warrior shook his head, stretched out a hand and pointed at a pile of weapons not far from Ling Suke's side, and said lightly, "Choose one." ”
"This illusory world is quite fair, and it doesn't let me fight empty-handed, but I haven't used a weapon. Ling Zhu was a little helpless, and walked to the side and pulled out a slender battle knife.
"Just use a knife!"
"Whew!" The red-robed warrior fell from the air the moment Ling Zhu pulled out his sword, and the big steel knife in his hand slashed directly at Ling Suke!
"Come on!" Ling Zhu swung his sword to meet him, and the moment he came out of the knife, he already had a little bit of true qi attached to the blade! "When!" After fighting a knife, the red-robed warrior tossed in the air, and the steel knife in his hand slashed horizontally!
Ling's assistant almost flew out of his hand, it turned out that the steel knife of the red-robed warrior was powerful and heavy, and he used a unique sword mana, and Ling Zhu was caught off guard and suffered a dark loss.
The two sides fought together with swords, and they had already fought for dozens of rounds in a moment! Ling Suke didn't know any sword moves with his sword for the first time, and he relied on a patchwork of martial arts to deal with it temporarily, and he secretly learned the sword technique of the red-robed samurai while seeing the moves.
The red-robed samurai's sword technique is extremely powerful, straight forward, and there is a kind of momentum contained in it, Ling Zhu was beaten back again and again at the beginning, and several times he was in danger, almost on the verge of being in a different place!
However, as time passed, Ling Suke became more and more comfortable to deal with the attacks of the red-robed samurai, and his sword skills gradually became more and more presentable, and his moves were seven or eight points similar to the swordsmanship of the red-robed samurai.
Ling Suke's sword made him more and more handy, and he gradually saw through the sword skills of this red-robed warrior, it turned out that the sword techniques he made came and went were those tricks, and Ling Zhu learned almost all of them!
"Let's end it!" Ling Zhu sneered, the five crescent moons in his body suddenly bloomed with golden light, and the surging true qi rushed out of Ling Zhu's body, Ling Zhu took the battle knife in his hand with a strong true qi to meet the heavy slash on the head of the red-robed warrior, and at the same time used the unique strength method taught by the uncle, the power of this knife condensed Ling Zhu's greatest strength at this time!
The two knives slashed head-to-head against each other, the huge strength collided together, and a circle of qi rippled in the air, and the red-robed warrior snorted and was shocked by this blow and took more than ten steps back before he could stand firm.
"Huh?" The red-robed warrior's eyes widened, and Ling Suke disappeared from his sight!
"Poof!" Like a sharp needle inserted into a piece of tofu, Ling Suke stood behind the red-robed warrior with a slender sword, the tip of the knife piercing through the opponent's chest!
"Extremely talented. The red-robed warrior slowly turned his head and said a flat word, and then his entire body turned into a ball of aura and drifted away in the wind!
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and the illusory world collapsed instantly, and Ling Zhu returned to reality, and at this moment he still maintained a posture of sitting cross-legged.
"Ling Zhu, through the first Cave Heaven, give ten horses of soul power!" A majestic voice sounded throughout the Illusory Mind Realm Stone Chamber!
