Chapter 90: The Test (II)
"Are you ready, boy?" asked the old crow as he turned to Ivan.
"Wait, I'll have a few more words to him. The old man raised his hand and leaned slowly closer to Ivan, and then he pulled out his somewhat worn right pocket, and it took a few moments to pull out a black hedroder.
The black spar is oval, the size of an egg, exuding bursts of peculiar aura, making Ivan, who was originally troubled in his heart, become clear.
"It's actually a Broken Illusion Stone, no wonder you were able to pass the first level so quickly. Before Ivan could ask any questions, the old crow exclaimed, staring at the black spar in the old man's hand with some surprise.
The Broken Illusion Stone, made from a kind of incandescent crystal naturally generated by heaven and earth, plus a variety of other precious materials, is made into an alchemy product through the tedious process of the highly accomplished alchemist Dao. The Illusion Breaker Stone itself has a strong destructive power to special aura, so it can easily crack most illusions, it is a rare treasure, and it is also a must-have for many mages to explore secret realms or ruins.
The only regret of the Broken Phantom Stone may be that it is a consumable item, and if it is used less once, a Broken Phantom Stone can only be cracked five to eight times at most.
In the era of the existence of alchemists, the Broken Illusion Stone was a rare item, since the alchemy frenzy three thousand years ago, the alchemy was lost, the alchemy department suffered heavy losses, and some alchemy products such as the Broken Illusion Stone could not be refined. Three thousand years have passed, and the Broken Phantom Stone is basically extinct, no wonder the old crow will be so surprised to see the piece of Broken Illusion Stone in the old man's hand.
"Good luck. A smile appeared on the old man's face, and although his smile was not very beautiful with his dry and rough countenance, Ivan had no time to care about those little things.
Thinking about what the spirit of the secret realm had just said, Ivan deduced several pieces of information, one was that the test was more than one level, maybe more, and second, the first level of the test was about the illusion.
"Boy, I also went into that test back then, I can provide you with some information and help here, I failed to break through to the third level back then, and I don't know if there are more levels below.
Regarding the first to third levels, I can tell you that they are all illusions, and the illusions are very advanced, and each level is more difficult to solve than the first, and I guess that the test may be based on illusions. I'm ashamed, if it weren't for the Broken Phantom Stone, I might not even be able to crack the first level, I easily passed the first and second levels with the Broken Phantom Stone, but after the third level, that illusion was too deep and powerful, and even the Broken Phantom Stone couldn't be cracked.
Now this Broken Illusion Stone only has the ability to crack the illusion for the last time, I will give it to you, as for which level you want to use, it depends on your own choice, I can not help you much, I hope you can successfully pass the test. The old man handed the Illusion Breaker Stone in his hand to Ivan.
"Wait for me to come out. Without excuse me, Ivan took the Illusion Breaker Stone handed over by the old man.
The old crow sneered, and then silently recited a tongue-twisting incantation, much like the old Motalen, but with a hint of Byzantine meaning.
With a "click", several mysterious runes appeared, and then a crack cracked open from mid-air, and it was pitch black inside, and even the sharpest sense of spiritual power could not detect anything.
Inside was supposed to be the place of the test, Ivan took a deep breath, jumped into the dark crevice, and went straight into the dark gap.
"Wait, if that kid comes out within seven days, he will pass the test, and he will be able to become the new master of the Deathmatch Secret Realm, and you will be able to escape from this place where you have been imprisoned for more than twenty years. However, if he still doesn't come out after seven days, then you two will accompany me and wait for the Deathmatch Secret Realm to be eroded and destroyed, and die together.
The old crow snorted coldly, obviously very dissatisfied with the old man, a small first-order mage, actually dared to offend a secret realm spirit who controlled the entire secret realm.
If it weren't for the fact that the Necromantic Realm had now eroded the entire Deathmatch Secret Realm, causing its strength to become weaker and weaker, it would have to torture him well.
As soon as Ivan stepped into that gap, a picture appeared in front of him that made his heart palpitate, his whole person seemed to be in a space, without any reference around, this kind of situation that could not judge time, could not judge whether he stayed in place or moved forward, which made Ivan feel very depressed.
All kinds of non-elemental energy in the space suddenly began to go berserk, making Ivan's mind more tense and vigilant, and the light around the space slowly distorted, as if the space had collapsed, and he was in such a dangerous place.
"It's ...... What's going on, the space is collapsing, how is this impossible, even a high-level mage can't let the space collapse, unless it's a legendary archmage or an illusion. ”
Ivan immediately came to his senses, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat, he didn't expect the illusion to be so terrifying, and as soon as he entered here, he confused his mind.
Even before entering the test, I already knew in my heart that the danger I was going to face was an illusion, and I was cautious and cautious, but who would have thought that when I just stepped into this illusion, I could make myself feel that I was entering an illusion, and it was really powerful, no wonder the old man admitted that he couldn't even pass the first level.
The horror of the illusion is unimaginable to ordinary people, many mages or warrior powerhouses, once they fall into the illusion, in addition to keen perception and profound knowledge, plus some illusion-breaking skills can be cracked. Others don't have enough strength to crack it at all, and can only indulge in the fantasy world forever until they die of old age, and many explorers call some profound and powerful illusions "nightmares more terrible than death" in fear.
If it weren't for this Phantom Breaking Stone, I am afraid that I would not be able to wake up, Ivan looked at the black and shiny stone in his hand, and secretly rejoiced in his heart that Ivan was not in a hurry to use the Illusion Breaking Stone in his hand.
Instead, he closed his eyes tightly, feeling this illusion, and as time passed, the space around Ivan collapsed faster and faster, and it began to close Ivan's position.
That ninth-order mage was really terrifying, the illusion that was arranged thousands of years ago has not diminished in the slightest until now, and the degree of realism is even for me, who knows that this is an illusion, I can't help but believe it.
Just as Ivan was thinking, the place where the space collapsed had come to his body, and he watched the destructive power of his lower body when the space collapsed, completely disappearing, and not even a trace of blood was splashed out, but the sharp pain made Ivan's forehead sweat, his teeth clenched, and he couldn't help but snort in pain.
"Huh"
Without hesitation, Ivan used the Illusion Breaking Stone in his hand, he knew that he had lost the best time to crack this illusion just now, and if he continued to hesitate, he was afraid that he would fall into this illusion forever.
In the next few levels of fantasy, you can only rely on yourself.
