Chapter 278: Four Elephant Illusions
"Congratulations, doll. You are the first to come out of my four-image illusion. A voice sounded suddenly, startling Lu Yi, who was looking around, and then, a figure composed of spiritual power appeared in front of Lu Yi's eyes.
Lu Yi looked at the portrait in front of him vigilantly, this was a tall figure of an old man with a single horn, Lu Yi couldn't help but think of the record of the image of the demon clan that he had seen in the historical classics of the mainland, and his expression suddenly became a little nervous.
Xu saw Lu Yi's vigilance and suspicion, and the old man with transformed spiritual power smiled slightly, revealing the two fangs in his mouth, "Don't be afraid, you are not of the same race, I think you should be easy to see." I'm just a wisp of spiritual power incarnation waiting for someone destined to preside over the secret realm here, and it won't pose any threat to you, doll, you can just put your mind at ease. ”
When Lu Yi heard this, he didn't completely relax, but he no longer looked so nervous on the surface, but secretly he was on mental defense, Lu Yi saluted at the figure and said: "Junior, Lu Yi, has seen his seniors, but I don't know that his predecessors are the rumored Demon Cloud Venerable?"
"Hehe, what an interesting doll, so young to know how to disobey yin and yang, this sense of self-protection is really strong enough. Lu Yi's careful thinking did not hide from the old man, "To say that I am the Demon Cloud Venerable, this is also true and not true, I am indeed a wisp of spiritual power separated from the Demon Cloud Venerable, but after these tens of thousands of years, I already have some of my own independent consciousness, although I am responsible for guarding and presiding over this secret realm according to the wishes of the Demon Cloud Venerable, but I have also made some improvements and transformations to this secret realm independently because of my boredom in these years." The four illusions you encounter now are actually very different from the illusions arranged by the Demon Cloud Venerable, so in the strict sense of the word, I can't be regarded as the Demon Cloud Venerable himself. ”
"Well, let's not talk about that, let's talk about you, little one, I still don't understand why you haven't been fooled by my illusions. The old man said.
"It's also a coincidence in this matter," Lu Yi said, "The junior is a formation mage, and his favorite thing is to study the phantom array. Before the juniors entered this place, they guessed that there should be a phantom array in it based on the word 'surprise' engraved on the outside of the door, so they were on guard early. Moreover, by chance, the younger generation once had a set of formations taught by a senior master, which is similar to the four elephant illusions of the predecessors. So this array didn't bother me too much, but when I saw my father's coffin transformed by the illusion, I lost myself with sadness and anger, but because my mother showed too obvious flaws, I quickly came to my senses again. Otherwise, if the flaw in my mother had been smaller, maybe I would have really lost myself completely. ”
"Well, actually, it's your luck. The old man said, "Strictly speaking, these four illusions are not phantom arrays, but a kind of illusions, which are an extension of the formation foundation. The so-called Four Elephant Illusion is actually to go deep into the inner world of others through supreme spiritual power, and explore the four scenes in his heart that are the happiest and warmest, the most expected and yearning, the most afraid of losing and the most fearful, so as to achieve the purpose of destroying his will and controlling his behavior. When a person is completely controlled, he can live if he wants to live, and if he dies, he dies. This is also the most powerful part of the Four Elephant Fantasy Realm. ”
The old man paused, as if to give Lu Yi a time to digest this information, and then continued: "The best way to destroy a person's will and make him fall into an illusion is actually to start with the scenario he fears the most. But your doll is not deeply involved in the world, and it seems that the journey has been smooth, and there is nothing that you can fear has happened to you, so after you entered, I helplessly found that it was really not easy to start with you, so I had to start from the happiest and warmest side of you, hoping that you would relax your vigilance and fall step by step. Maybe it's this failure that made it easy for you to break my illusion of the four elephants, maybe I started with the point that you are most afraid of losing your loved ones at the beginning, and the effect will be better. ”
Lu Yi thought about it when he heard this, then nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, the old man continued: "Look at the performance of this person who has stepped into the 'shock' door like you now. He was the four-elephant illusion that he fell into from the most terrifying scene in his heart. The old man said, with a wave of his hand, a picture appeared in front of Lu Yi, only to see that in a stone room exactly the same as the room Lu Yi was, a sixth-order monk was frantically dancing a serrated broadsword in his hand and attacking desperately. And this monk Lu Yi knew that he was one of the subordinates brought by Yang Huo Zhenren to assist in the attack on the Demon Heaven Gate. "This man is now completely trapped in the Four Elephants Realm, and his life is completely under my control. ”
"Senior, this person is my subordinate, the junior dares to ask the senior to let him go, don't take his life. Lu Yi bowed to the old man and pleaded.
"Hehe, rest assured, when I set up this 'surprise' door, I didn't want to take people's lives, this is actually a kind of mental training, as long as I can get out of it myself, I will have a big entry in my mind. Now it's up to him to see if he can come to his senses. The old man laughed.
"Then if he is obsessed, what will be the consequences?" Lu Yi asked.
"Dying of distraction or being driven mad by illusions is the worst outcome, and the collapse of the mind is the better result of not moving forward from then on. But if you can enter this place, you are destined to be a person, and I naturally will not let the above two results appear, when necessary, I will send him out, and I can also get a sixth-order magic weapon as a gift to someone who is destined. The old man explained.
When Lu Yi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The juniors have thanked the seniors, so I don't know what the results of the other sects will be." ”
"Hehe, I can't tell you this. But I can tell you a little bit about it, the biggest chance is not this door. Moreover, the experience is far from over, and there should be only one person who can really go to the end. The old man pretended to be mysterious.
"Hehe, hey, so senior, as the first person to break the illusion of the four elephants, is there any reward?" Lu Yi looked at the old man with a shy face, like a child who was coquettish with his elders and asked for candy.
"That's nature, every person who is the first to pass through the four tests of life, death, scenery, and shock, I will personally appear to meet him and give him a great opportunity. As for your chances, I'll tell you later, but before that, I have questions for you. The old man looked at Lu Yi with a smile.
Lu Yi suddenly felt a chill behind him, looking at the old man's expression, how could he always feel familiar? A bad premonition hit Lu Yi's heart, and Lu Yi unconsciously fought a cold war.
