But as Ye Wushuang kept slaying the figures charging towards him, he gradually realized that these were not real living people.
They were still illusory figures condensed by the surrounding spells, but these illusory figures were more advanced and had a stronger sense of reality.
However, the attack power of these迄今为止 (so far) most realistic illusory figures had indeed increased significantly.
After slaying more than a dozen illusory figures at the Seventh and Eighth Levels, Ye Wushuang was already sweating profusely.
He swallowed a few pills to restore his spiritual qi and then charged out with his sword again.
After a full stick of incense time passed.
The ground was littered with corpses, and blood flowed everywhere.
Ye Wushuang stood there, gasping for breath. His white long robe was torn in several places, and there were wounds on his body, with blood dripping down.
“Huff…”
Letting out a long sigh, Ye Wushuang looked around with a hint of helplessness on his face.
At the Fifth Level of the Realm of All Methods, having fused the powers of seven attributes, his combat strength was incredibly powerful.
Yet even so, when facing the attacks of a hundred martial artists at the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Levels of the Realm of All Methods, he was still stretched thin.
Moreover, these were just ordinary talented martial artists in the late stage of the Realm of All Methods.
If there were a hundred geniuses like Yuan Tianzong and Ke Liangjing, Ye Wushuang at his current state would surely meet his demise on the spot.
After resting for the time it took to burn a stick of incense, Ye Wushuang continued to move upward.
Gradually, he reached a height of nine hundred zhang.
Ye Wushuang stood there, cautious and on guard.
Since illusory figures condensed by spells would appear to attack at a height of three hundred zhang, this had become a pattern.
But when he reached the height of nine hundred zhang, there was no movement around him.
After waiting for the time it took to drink a cup of tea with still no sign of anything, he finally took a step forward and set off again.
But in the next instant.
As soon as Ye Wushuang took a step, the scene of the surrounding world instantly changed.
Endless flames burned all around his body.
The path beneath his feet became a road of surging lava.
And there were strange – shaped fire beasts tumbling in the lava.
“An illusion…”
Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows.
Throughout history, in many forbidden areas and ancient sites, the inherited treasures left by powerful figures were often protected by various seals.
And within these seals, there were all kinds of trials.
Those top – tier powerful beings believed that if future generations wanted to obtain their treasures, they had to be exceptionally brilliant.
This was why, across the vast land, ancient ruins in various historic sites and perilous places were filled with strange and wonderful things.
At the moment, Ye Wushuang had clearly fallen into an illusion.
However, in the face of this test, Ye Wushuang laughed.
When it came to the firmness of one’s will, perhaps ten powerful martial artists at the Realm of Reunification couldn’t match him, a martial artist at the Fifth Level of the Realm of All Methods.
“Come on!”
Ye Wushuang sheathed the Tianyan Sword. Looking at the hell – like scene around him, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Coincidentally, this kind of illusion can even strengthen my willpower!”
He stepped forward and placed his foot on the lava.
The searing pain spread throughout his body in an instant.
If he tried to dodge now and attack aimlessly, he would only end up getting himself killed or injured.
This kind of pain.
Ye Wushuang could endure it!
As he gradually walked on the lava road, fire beasts gnashed their teeth and bit at his legs.
When his legs were being bitten, Ye Wushuang crawled forward…
Until his head was completely eaten away, and his entire figure disappeared into the lava road.
But from beginning to end, Ye Wushuang held firmly to one thought: everything was an illusion!
If his consciousness fell into a state of death, then he would truly be doomed!
Illusions!
Some martial artists were powerful. After entering an illusion, they knew they were inside an illusion and that everything was fake.
But everything in the illusion was so real.
So, many people would get trapped in it. Even though they knew it was false, they just couldn’t break free.
Moreover, illusions were ever – changing and constantly emerging.
In the final analysis, they were a test of a martial artist’s seven emotions and six desires!
But among the countless living beings in the world, how many could truly cut off their emotions and desires and abandon everything?
A genius swordsman like Dongfang Xiu, who followed the path of killing in the way of the sword, walked the path of绝情 (severing emotions), but he didn’t completely cut off his desires.
Even the Celestial Emperor couldn’t truly cut off all emotions and desires!
However, people could restrain their emotions and desires.
This kind of restraint was a measure of whether a martial artist’s heart was firm.
On the lava road, Ye Wushuang’s figure had been completely consumed.
But his will still remained.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea passed, the surrounding world suddenly changed.
Ye Wushuang’s figure coalesced once again.
At this moment, the young man in white was still intact, not missing a single bone or piece of flesh.
Ye Wushuang looked ahead and raised his eyebrows.
“I’m still in the illusion…”
With a soft murmur, Ye Wushuang stepped forward.
The illusion ahead would surely offer a whole new kind of challenge…
