Chapter 19: Illusion

Three months later.

Ye Chen finally transformed the spiritual power attribute in his body into an ice and thunder composite attribute, and on this day, Mo Yuan City took Ye Chen to a secret room in the Thundering Palace.

"From today onwards, you will begin to refine your body with thunder, temper your mind with illusions, and break through the demons in your heart, are you ready?" Mo Yuancheng asked.

"Ever since I chose this exercise, I've been waiting for this day. Ye Chen said.

"Judging from the nine months of cultivation, you should not have a bloodline advantage, and your talent can only be said to be average, but you can reach this level at this age, presumably you should pay little attention to the outside world except training. Mo Yuancheng glanced deeply at Ye Chen.

"That's right. Yechen nodded.

"Immersion in the world of the individual will always lead to the limitations of the ideas derived, and once it collides with the external reality, it is easy to lead to extreme behavior. Mo Yuancheng said earnestly: "If you want to be a qualified martial artist, you must first learn to be a person, erect correct thoughts, and don't forget the original intention of practicing martial arts." Great power in the hands of people with bad intentions will only bring disaster to the country and the people. ”

Yes, students must take it to heart. Yechen stood up straight and replied very seriously.

"I also asked your instructor Lei Jingyuan, he said that when you chose this exercise, you didn't tell him that you had reached the extreme of the Yuan Life, and the purpose was just to face a sad past, not for the name of the Spirit Refining Decision, right?" Mo Yuancheng frowned and hesitated, and asked.

"Yes. Ye Chen nodded and added, "I didn't know the history of Spirit Refining at the time, so I didn't know the connection between the two, and I didn't mean to hide it. ”

"You don't need to explain this, you don't come from a famous family, and it's normal not to know that history. Mo Yuancheng paused and said, "You know now, it's okay, I'll say it again when I save time." ”

"But there's one thing I have to ask you first, do you remember everything very well? Mo Yuancheng asked solemnly.

"I roughly remember that what is really clear is the scene where our relatives turned around and fought those guys in order to cover our departure, and I will never forget that scene. Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said.

"In this case, it will be very troublesome, and under the influence of evil spirits, your memories of the past will definitely be skewed, and I am afraid that you will not be able to distinguish between imaginary memories and real memories in the end. Mo Yuancheng frowned and said.

"Is it really that serious?" asked Ye Chen.

"I can only say that there is such a possibility, and I must first warn you, don't let the bad luck distract your mind. The memories you fantasize about are often the last things you want to face, and there will definitely be deviations in the details, so don't confuse them when you recall them later. "Moyuan City Road.

"I see. Ye Chen said.

"I've lowered the intensity of the evil qi so that even if you're immersed in the illusion, you won't sink too deep. Mo Yuancheng turned around and walked out of the secret room, leaving Ye Chen alone here.

Ye Chen sat directly on the ground, closed his eyes and concentrated on his breath.

Soon, there was a mist in the secret room, and some electric sparks flashed from time to time, making a "crackling" sound, which quickly filled the entire secret room.

Ye Chenpan sat motionless in the fog, as if he was asleep, in fact, his consciousness had returned to the depths of his memory under the erosion of evil energy, the past that he had sealed in the depths of his heart but could not forget for a long time.

In an ordinary country town, a ten-year-old boy is running down from a height. Judging from the appearance, it is seven or eight points similar to the current Yechen, which is obviously the Yechen when he was a child.

In front of Ye Chen's run, a man in tattered black armor fainted on the ground, his face also covered by a half mask, and he couldn't see clearly.

"Wake up. Yechen came to the man and kept shaking his body, but the man still showed no signs of waking up.

Ye Chen tilted his head and thought about it, ran towards the house not far away, and soon after, stumbled back with a basin of water.

"Wow. ”

Ye Chen poured water directly on the man's face, and the man slowly opened his eyes.

"You're awake, who are you? You're not from our town, are you?" asked Ye Chen, crouching down, curiously.

"Let's go...... Come on...... Get away from me. The man said intermittently.

"Why? are you alright?"

"Let's go. The man's eyes widened and he yelled at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was so frightened that he took a few steps back and almost sat directly on the ground.

"Let's go. ”

The man roared, his body changed rapidly, the exposed skin began to keratinize, his hands turned into sharp claws, sharp horns appeared on his forehead, his eyes became red, and he slowly stood up from the ground, and the mask fell off, revealing a hideous and terrifying face.

"Ahh Yechen screamed, and the basin in his hand fell to the ground, and he ran towards the town like crazy.

The man's scarlet eyes flashed a hint of struggle, but they were quickly replaced by fierce colors, and a pair of black wings pierced armor spread out from his back and flew silently over the town.

The man stretched out his hand and slashed in the void, and a pitch-black crack with a length of 100 meters appeared above the town, and rolling fire gushed out from the crack, turning the town into a purgatory of flames, and the people of the town fled in panic.

As soon as Ye Chen ran back to the town, a huge fireball fell from the sky and landed on the street in front of him, and the houses were instantly blown into ruins and thick smoke filled the air. Looking at this unrecognizable town, Ye Chen really didn't know where to go, so he could only walk in the direction of home in a daze.

"Grandpa, uncle, where are you?" cried out helplessly in the streets full of flames and smoke.

"Let's go, Yechen, go outside. In the distance, a familiar figure appeared in Ye Chen's sight.

"Uncle. Ye Chen was surprised, but before he could shout this, a sharp claw pierced the uncle's heart, and a man with black wings appeared behind the uncle, who was the man who Ye Chen had rescued before.

The man pulled out his claws, licked the blood on the claws, and slowly walked towards Ye Chen, Ye Chen's legs kept shaking, and he was left with fear in his mind, and he didn't even have the courage to escape.

"I thank you so much for waking me up from my coma so that I can completely occupy this body, and in return for your kindness, I grant you a painless death. The man grinned, his voice hoarse and unpleasant.

The man's figure flickered and appeared in front of Ye Chen's eyes, and a sharp claw dilated Ye Chen's pupils infinitely.

Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from the illusion, gasping for breath, his forehead was full of cold sweat.

Looking at this empty secret room, Ye Chen gradually came to his senses, but his mind could not be calm, he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have woken up a person with water, but some of the memories behind him were very vague.

Could it really be because of my unintentional actions that brought destruction to Lingxia Town? Ye Chen couldn't help but guess.

Just as Ye Chen was thinking wildly, the door opened, and Mo Yuancheng walked in.

"Can you still tell the difference between fantasy and reality?" Mo Yuancheng asked.

Yechen was silent.

"That's all for today's lesson, you go back to the dormitory first, remember well, and be careful not to be disturbed by the plot in the fantasy world. Mo Yuancheng sighed and persuaded, "Although this is cruel to you, this is the only way that can make you face the past and the present. ”

Ye Chen walked out of the secret room without saying a word, his back looking tired and depressed.

Mo Yuancheng shook his head, walked out of the Thundering Hall, and walked towards the academy's teacher's dormitory.
