Chapter 1726: Reaching the Pinnacle (4K)
"This Xiao Mu's understanding of the world and his use of illusions can be said to have reached the pinnacle in the realm of the gods!"
The spirit of the Temple Enlightenment Tree said this and projected a picture in front of Jiang Zhiyu.
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes blurred, and then he saw the scene when Huo Zijing burned the talisman and summoned the golden armored heavenly soldiers and the black iron chain.
Jiang Zhiyu understood that this must be the time when Huo Zijing fell into an illusion, so Jiang Zhiyu did not miss any details, but no matter how Jiang Zhiyu looked, he could not figure out how Huo Zijing fell into the illusion.
Neither the heaven and earth energy nor the soul pagoda moved. But even so, Huo Zijing was already deeply trapped in the illusion.
"That Xiao Mu used the illusion, and did not forcibly break the Soul Pagoda. Instead, at the moment when Huo Zijing summoned the Heavenly Soldiers and the Black Iron Chain, he followed the folds of the Soul Pagoda and cast the illusion into Huo Zijing's soul."
The voice of the spirit of the Temple Enlightenment Tree was heard, and then a location on the barrier of the Soul Pagoda was specially marked on the screen.
Jiang Zhiyu looked at that position and gradually sensed something strange, but it was just something strange.
The corner of Jiang Zhiyu's eye twitched slightly. The spirit of the Enlightenment Tree in the Temple restored the scene and had to mark it specially. Only then did he sense something strange.
At this moment, Jiang Zhiyu was still a bystander. It would be impossible for him to notice this in the ever-changing battle.
Normally, the defensive barrier you cast will not stop your own attacks, it will only block your opponent's attacks.
But after all, it is all the attraction of the vitality of heaven and earth. Although one's own defense will not block one's own attack, one still has to let the force penetrate the barrier in the end.
At that moment, the defense that should have been complete will have a fleeting flaw, or it can be said that it is impossible for anyone of the same level to capture it.
But such an impossible thing was actually used by Xiao Mu.
This kind of insight, this kind of vision to see through weaknesses, is simply not what a person in the late stage of the Heavenly God Realm, or even at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm, should possess.
It’s incredible!
Before, I thought that a divine soul at the peak of the Heavenly Divine Realm, combined with a top-grade divine soul and divine weapon, would be able to compete with Xiao Mu, or even defeat him.
Looking at it now, it seems that is not the case at all.
"Boom boom boom!"
While Jiang Zhiyu was trying to figure out how Huo Zijing fell into the illusion, the enlightenment field was already filled with the sound of explosions.
When the golden-armored heavenly soldiers and the black iron chains crushed Xiao Mu's figure without a trace of blood mist, Huo Zijing suddenly woke up and realized that he had fallen into Xiao Mu's illusion.
As a person involved in the game, Huo Zijing did not have the Enlightenment Tree to help and guide him on the spot, so Huo Zijing did not know when he was caught in the illusion.
But since the fact that he had fallen into an illusion was already an established fact, what Huo Zijing needed to do now was to reverse the situation under the current circumstances.
Being caught in an illusion doesn't mean you're doomed to lose the competition.
Born in the Tianxuan Sect, Huo Zijing had enough knowledge of illusion. After all, illusion was just a way to use the power of heaven and earth, and there was no essential difference between it and the heavenly soldiers and black iron chains he had just summoned.
If you fall into an illusion, don't panic. Protect yourself first and then take your time.
From this point of view, the choices made by Fang Yongqian and Jiang Zhiyu before were actually correct. They both protected themselves at the first opportunity. However, in Huo Zijing's opinion, Fang Yongqian and Jiang Zhiyu did not do enough.
At this moment, outside Huo Zijing's body, there was not only the barrier of the Soul Pagoda, but also ninety-nine layers of golden light covering it.
To some extent, using talismans to fight against enemies is just the burning of top-grade immortal crystals and great Dao stones. As long as enough are spent, the impossible can often be turned into possible.
There are ninety-nine layers of golden light. Not to mention resisting the attacks from the late Heavenly God Realm, even if someone at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm came, they would not be able to penetrate these golden light barriers without several strikes.
And if he couldn't break through it with one strike, Huo Zijing would have enough time to replenish these defenses. At the moment, his sleeves were filled with nothing but various talismans.
The golden light barriers that Huo Zijing has created at this moment are already as valuable as a seed of the Enlightenment Tree. As the battle progresses, Huo Zijing will probably use even more talismans.
In other words, even if Huo Zijing won this competition in the end, he would not make any profit, but would have to put in part of his own money.
As for how much to post, it depends on how far the final battle goes.
Huo Zijing knew this, but he didn't care.
After protecting himself, Huo Zijing began to summon more golden-armored heavenly soldiers and began to sweep the entire enlightenment field.
At this moment, Huo Zijing didn't know where Xiao Mu was hiding, but it didn't matter. As long as the attack range was wide enough, he could force Xiao Mu out.
The loud explosions that filled the entire venue were caused by these golden-armored heavenly soldiers.
At the same time, a green light appeared on the top of Huo Zijing's head. This was a talisman specially used to clear abnormalities. Huo Zijing was trying to forcibly clear the illusion.
Above the enlightenment field, Jiang Zhiyu looked at the golden light on Huo Zijing's body and the increasing number of golden-armored heavenly soldiers, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
All I can say is that he is worthy of being the Tianxuan Sect, and worthy of being the genius of the Heavenly God Realm within the Tianxuan Sect. It is impossible for an ordinary Heavenly God Realm to possess such wealth.
However, from the perspective of the spirit of the Enlightenment Tree in the Temple, the dozen or so golden-armored heavenly soldiers only attacked within a one-mile radius, which made Jiang Zhiyu sigh.
It’s not that Huo Zijing is not strong enough, it’s just that the illusion displayed by Xiao Mu at this moment is really too terrifying.
The illusions of the Tianxuan Sect and the Huanhua Sect all pursued a realm where even if the opponent knew it was fake, they could not escape. At this moment, Huo Zijing was at a level where he didn't even know what was in front of him.
In Huo Zijing's eyes, the entire enlightenment field was filled with golden-armored heavenly soldiers and black iron chains, but in reality, all the attacks were within a one-mile radius, and there was still a distance of several miles from Xiao Mu, and they could not touch him at all.
Huo Zijing's divine soul at the peak of the divine realm, as well as the talismans that blessed it, became completely useless.
"Does Xiao Mu have any treasures on him? Otherwise, how could the illusion performed by the late Heavenly God Realm make the soul of the peak Heavenly God Realm unable to tell where he is?"
Jiang Zhiyu couldn't help but turn his head to look at the spirit of the temple's enlightenment tree beside him, his expression full of confusion and doubt.
"This is what illusions achieve when they reach a certain level." The spirit of the Temple's Enlightenment Tree thought for a moment and whispered.
"clang!"
A sound like a huge bell suddenly came from the self-enlightenment hall.
At some point, the golden-armored heavenly soldiers summoned by Huo Zijing began to work together to attack the ninety-nine layers of golden light on Huo Zijing's body.
Each of the golden-armored heavenly soldiers has the combat power of the peak late stage of the Heavenly God Realm. Although they lack flexibility, their power when attacking a fixed area is no weaker than that of practitioners of the same level.
Being besieged by fifteen such golden-armored heavenly soldiers, dozens of layers of the golden light on Huo Zijing's body were instantly extinguished.
At this moment, outsiders had no way of knowing what Huo Zijing saw in the illusion. They could only see that while Huo Zijing was commanding the golden-armored heavenly soldiers to continue attacking him, he took out talismans and was about to replenish the broken golden light on his body surface.
From an outsider's perspective, Huo Zijing's actions at this moment seemed inexplicable, but as long as one understood the illusion he was in, one would instantly understand his actions.
I'm afraid that in Huo Zijing's eyes, he has already found Xiao Mu's true identity, and now he has the opportunity to take down Xiao Mu in one fell swoop.
"Buzz!"
The golden talisman in Huo Zijing's hand burned, but this time, the golden barrier did not fall on Huo Zijing's body, but was extended several miles away.
With his perception completely confused, Huo Zijing couldn't even cast the talisman to the correct position.
In the enlightenment field, Jiang Zhiyu looked at this scene with a very complicated expression. Then he turned his head to look at Xiao Mu who had not moved, and suddenly doubted the system he was practicing.
This illusion seemed invincible, and he calmly watched his opponent jumping up and down over there.
"Don't think too much. A genius like this doesn't appear powerful because he has practiced illusion. He just happens to have practiced illusion." The voice of the spirit of the Temple's Enlightenment Tree suddenly sounded.
Jiang Zhiyu was slightly startled, then nodded.
In the enlightenment field, Huo Zijing extended layer upon layer of golden light barriers to several miles away, completely ignoring the golden light that was shattered on his body surface.
"clang!"
There was another loud explosion of metal colliding, and the golden barrier on Huo Zijing's body continued to break, leaving only the last dozen layers.
Huo Zijing sensed this, and then tried even harder to extend the golden light barrier to several miles away. At that location, a ninety-nine-layer golden light barrier had already appeared.
Fifteen golden-armored heavenly soldiers raised their blades and continued to chop down with expressionless faces.
"boom!"
Along with the slight shaking of the enlightenment field, the golden light on Huo Zijing's body completely dissipated, and Huo Zijing's figure also dissipated at the same time.
When they realized that Huo Zijing's life was in danger, Wudaochang took the initiative to move Huo Zijing out of here.
In other words, Chen Fei wins this game!
In the back, the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree raised its hands, its excitement beyond words.
Seven consecutive wins!
There are three levels of wins, seven wins, and finally nine wins, representing different levels of rewards.
A huge ray of enlightenment light appeared in front of the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree. Compared with the enlightenment light when it won three consecutive victories, the reward this time was more than several times more.
The spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree looked at the enlightenment light excitedly, then raised its head and looked upwards, only to find that the other two enlightenment trees that had just stimulated it had already disappeared.
A sneer appeared on the face of the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree. It knew that the two Enlightenment Trees were actually still looking at it and could see its expression.
The expression of the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree at this moment was deliberately shown to the other two Enlightenment Trees.
"Sir, the seven-game winning streak has been achieved, and we can go back." The voice of the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree appeared in Chen Fei's ears.
"Is it at most seven consecutive wins?" Chen Fei turned around and looked at the spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree.
"The maximum number of consecutive wins is nine!" The spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree immediately understood what Chen Fei meant, and its voice fluctuated slightly.
Tianying has been practicing on the Enlightenment Tree for so many years, so he has naturally participated in the Enlightenment Competition more than once, but adding up all these times, three consecutive wins are very rare, and seven consecutive wins are extremely rare.
Before Chen Fei came, there was not even a three-game winning streak in this Wudao Field Competition.
And now, not only do we want to win seven games in a row, but we also want to sprint for nine consecutive wins?
"Then continue!" Chen Fei showed a smile on his face and turned to look at the front of the enlightenment field.
"Okay, continue!"
The spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then it knocked away the enlightenment light in front of it. It wanted to continue accumulating rewards!
The spirit of the Tianying Enlightenment Tree admitted that there was an element of gambling in its thinking, but it was unknown how many years it would take for such a gamble to come along, and it was willing to give it a try.
"Buzz!"
The Enlightenment Field began to tremble slightly. At the same time, the Enlightenment Trees of many sects in the Tianxuan Realm began to send messages to specific Heavenly God Realms, inviting them to be the defender of the eighth game.
It is impossible for the geniuses in the God Realm of each sect to stay in the Enlightenment Field all the time. They will accept tasks when needed.
It’s just that the defenders in the first few games were easy to select, or there were a lot of Heavenly Gods who met the requirements, so they arrived immediately when summoned.
But by the eighth and ninth games, the number of Heavenly Gods that met the requirements had dropped dramatically, and this was the only way to summon them in order to choose the right ones.
A quarter of an hour later, a figure appeared in the enlightenment field.
"Illusionary Gate, Yu Zongjie!"
Seeing the figure in the enlightenment field, Jiang Zhiyu's eyes couldn't help but widen slightly.
In the Tianxuan domain, there are three lists: Tiandixuan, Dixuan, but the lowest ones correspond to the True God of the Void. There is no such recognized list in the Tianshen realm.
However, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. There are so many people in the Heavenly God Realm in the Tianxuan Domain, and everyone wants to know who will be the strongest in the Heavenly God Realm.
Therefore, in the Tianxuan Domain, there is a folk list of the Heavenly God Realm, which lists more than 500 Heavenly God Realm masters, and almost 99% of them are at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm.
Yu Zongjie from the Huanhua Sect entered the list with the realm of the late Heavenly God Realm. Although he was only at the tail end of the list, it was enough to show his talent and combat power.
"It's strange that he hasn't even broken through to the peak of the Heavenly God Realm yet!" Jiang Zhiyu whispered.
"He has cultivated both illusion and body. His physique has reached the peak of the Heavenly God Realm. Illusion should be a way to cultivate to a certain level of a certain technique, so he deliberately suppressed his cultivation."
The spirit of the Temple's Enlightenment Tree carefully observed Yu Zongjie and whispered.
"I see. In your opinion, who will win in a battle between illusions?" Jiang Zhiyu asked.
“I can’t explain it clearly!” The spirit of the Temple’s Enlightenment Tree thought for a moment and shook its head.
Yu Zongjie, the spirit of the Holy Temple Enlightenment Tree, naturally knew that his strength was unquestionable. But the dominance of the illusion that Xiao Mu had just displayed also left a deep impression on him.
"Yu Zongjie from the Illusion Sect!" Yu Zongjie bowed and looked at Xiao Mu with curiosity in his eyes.
There are only a handful of people in the Heavenly God Realm who can perform illusions to such a degree, but Yu Zongjie has never heard of the name of Xiao Mu before him.
"Xiao Mu, please!" Chen Fei bowed.
"Wow!"
As soon as Chen Fei finished speaking, a sound like a wave rang out in the enlightenment field.
Above the Enlightenment Field, Jiang Zhiyu deliberately removed the field of vision of the temple's Enlightenment Tree spirit. He wanted to see what a duel between two masters of illusion would be like.
The next moment, Jiang Zhiyu found himself in darkness.
