Chapter 8: Illusions
In the extreme north, this is already in the outer part of the most core area, and from here, it is a real forbidden area for immortal cultivators, and every step must be careful.
There are countless dangers hidden here, an extremely cold storm can appear at any time, and there are many powerful demon beasts lurking in the white environment, and they can threaten their lives at any time anywhere you can't see.
In this white area, there is a team of nearly thirty people still walking towards the depths of the core area.
In this dead world, there is not much sound, the only thing that is the "creaking, creaking" sound of the soles of the feet stepping on the ice and snow.
This team is the Feixuemen group who set off to the core area of the Far North to pick the snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains.
It was still led by their senior brother himself, and they had been on the march for seven days, and although they had not encountered very great dangers along the way, the harsh environment here had made them suffer a lot.
Since Meng Haoyu fainted and woke up last time, he was taken care of by his senior brothers and sisters, plus the pills he carried with him, and there was no situation where his body could not bear it.
Knowing that they had entered the core area, he was on high alert all the way, and his soul power was constantly observing his surroundings.
At the beginning, he found that the soul power that could originally be probed within a radius of a hundred miles could only be detected at most a distance of about fifty meters in this area, which made him more careful, and there was always a bad feeling.
He then held the mediocre shield that Master Ziyang had given him in his hand, ready to deal with the danger that was coming.
The few people in the team who were not on good terms with him unconsciously began to laugh at him when they saw Meng Haoyu take out a shabby shield.
They didn't have as much soul power as Meng Haoyu, so they naturally felt that Meng Haoyu's behavior was strange, so they laughed.
"I said Meng Haoyu, are you here to be funny, what can the broken shield in your hand do, you shouldn't be able to resist their attacks when you encounter some first- and second-order demon beasts."
For these people, Meng Haoyu didn't take them to heart at all, and didn't pay attention to them at all.
At this moment, his outgoing soul power sensed a strange change around them, and after carefully investigating it to make sure, he told Xiao Ran about his investigation.
"Senior brother, there is danger approaching all around."
After hearing Meng Haoyu's words, Xiao Ran and the others stopped, he began to investigate the surroundings, but he didn't find anything unusual, he opened his mouth and asked, "Senior brother, I have investigated and found no danger. ”
"Senior brother, there is really danger, you have to believe me."
Meng Haoyu wanted to open his mouth to continue explaining, but the person who had been targeting him sneered, "I said Meng Haoyu, among all the people here, you are the weakest, and the senior brother has not found any danger, do you think that the senior brother is inferior to you?" ”
After saying this, the people around laughed and echoed.
"That's it, who did he think he was, everyone present, even though the senior brother's soul power was the highest, he didn't find any danger."
Some people who don't like him have been gossiping and gossiping non-stop.
"Alright," Xiao Ran said, stopping their ridicule.
"Senior Brother Haoyu, you follow closely, let's move on." After saying that, he turned around and continued on his way.
Meng Haoyu wanted to continue to say something, but seeing that none of them believed his words, he could only give up and continue to follow the team on the road, observing the surrounding environment at any time to prevent danger from coming.
They continued to move forward for more than ten miles, and suddenly, the environment in front of them changed, and they were deep in an iceberg canyon, and there was a spring on one side of the canyon, and a treasure grew around the spring.
This treasure was not very tall, about a foot high, and it was full of foliage, and in the dense branches it was covered with dozens of scarlet fruits, the size of a fist.
The fruit exudes a strong spiritual power, and the fruity fragrance is overflowing.
In the team, when some disciples saw it, they hurriedly exclaimed, "This is the Frost Spirit Fruit, and it is already ripe." ”
After saying that, they all rushed over and picked them up.
One of the disciples looked at the spirit fruit in his hand and couldn't help but bite down.
At this time, Meng Haoyu happened to follow and saw this scene.
Originally, when he came to this canyon, he felt that there was something wrong here, but now he felt even more strange after seeing this frost spirit fruit.
He released all the soul power, and when he investigated this treasure, he felt a trace of demonic power, mixed with a stench, his pupils dilated, and he finally understood what was going on.
He hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it, "Don't eat it, this is an illusion created by the snow fox." ”
At this time, Xiao Ran also felt that the problem was, and before he could stop it, several disciples had already bitten it.
Suddenly, their bodies became ice sculptures in an instant.
Then with a sound of "Peng", their bodies instantly turned into ice slag.
This scene happened so fast that there was no time to rescue.
The four disciples lost their lives in an instant.
At this time, the other disciples saw that the four of them were dead in an instant, and hurriedly threw away the Frost Spirit Fruit in their hands.
The moment the spirit fruit touched the ground, it turned into a powerful chill and emanated, merging into the Dao air.
Xiao Ran then understood what was going on.
"Everyone gathered together, we are now in the deep illusion realm, at this time, the illusion created by the high-level demon beast snow fox, there must be a demon beast with about the strength of the god transformation stage hidden around here, everyone must be careful and be ready for battle at any time."
Xiao Ran opened his mouth to explain to them, and after speaking, he looked at Meng Haoyu with a strange look in his eyes.
Although his soul power is not as strong as his strength, it is also slightly higher than that of the others seated, and he didn't find the problem, and Meng Haoyu actually said the word snow fox as soon as he opened his mouth, which made him a little puzzled, is this junior brother's soul power higher than himself.
"Senior Brother Haoyu, since you can see at a glance the illusion created by the snow fox at this time, is there a way to deal with it?" Xiao Ran asked at Meng Haoyu.
"Senior brother, you think too highly of me, I have only only practiced the strength of the Qi period, and I can see that the illusion created by the snow fox at this time is also what I saw in the book."
"You also know, my strength is not high, but I like to read all kinds of books, I have basically read all kinds of books in our door for so many years, and I know a lot, like today, I have seen it in a monster book, so I will know that it is the means of the snow fox."
"I see."
"Senior brother, now we are still in the illusion, I remember that there is a method in the book, which says that if you want to crack such an illusion, you must first find the location of the snow fox, so that you can succeed, so it depends on you next, and my strength can't help." Meng Haoyu said with a helpless smile.
