Chapter 355: Choosing Who to Devour
When Fang Yuxuan heard these words from Jiang Yun, Jiang Yun’s eyes showed a strong sense of anger. Without hesitation, he took a step forward and walked directly into the Sword Cave.
Up to now, Jiang Yun still did not know whether Little Yu was inside this Sword Cave or not. But even if she wasn’t, he wanted to confirm it himself.
Otherwise, he couldn’t be at ease.
Just as Jiang Yun stepped into the Sword Cave, everything in front of his eyes suddenly blurred.
The tens of thousands of swords inserted into the ground seemed to come alive, all rising up one after another, forming a vast sea of swords that swept towards Jiang Yun.
For a moment, the sword light was dazzling, the sword energy was surging, and there was a sharp Sword Intent that was about to completely envelop Jiang Yun.
However, facing this sea of swords, Jiang Yun stood still, not moving at all.
Just as the fastest flying sword was about to stab Jiang Yun’s forehead, a violent buzzing sound suddenly rang out.
All the sword energy and sword light, even including the tens of thousands of swords, all disappeared without a trace!
Only the chilling Sword Intent remained, and it cut off a strand of Jiang Yun’s hair, lightly drifting towards the ground.
At this moment, the scene in front of Jiang Yun is still the same as what he saw outside the cave earlier.
All the precious swords are still stuck in the ground, not moving at all.
Just then, Fang Yuxuan’s voice, clearly shocked, rang out again, "You actually realized that the attack of the ten thousand swords was fake?"
Indeed, everything that just happened was fake.
It is a scene like an illusion that every person entering the Sword Cave will see.
However, what you think is an illusion, is actually the reality!
If you don’t think it’s an illusion, and instead treat it as real, even fighting back, then it will become real!
This is the power of the Ten Thousand Swords Cave.
It is unknown how many people from other sects have coveted the Ten Thousand Swords Cave, but they were all killed by the thousands of swords as soon as they stepped into the Sword Cave.
Even Fang Yuxuan himself, when he first entered the Sword Cave, despite being told by his master Wei Zhengyang about this, couldn’t resist taking action.
The illusion was too real and too terrifying, he couldn’t see those thousands of swords as fake at all.
The result of his action was almost being killed in the Sword Cave, thankfully Wei Zhengyang saved him in time.
So, when Jiang Yun didn’t react to the illusion, he was really surprised, wondering how Jiang Yun saw through it.
Jiang Yun coldly smiled and said, "Because you have killed too few people!"
Fang Yuxuan, being intelligent, was puzzled at first by Jiang Yun’s answer but soon understood.
Killing intent!
In the illusion, everything felt incredibly real, except for one thing – there was no sense of danger present!
Jiang Yun, who had been through many battles, keenly sensed that the swords attacking him held no murderous intent.
Since the swords posed no threat, Jiang Yun didn’t need to fight back and simply stood his ground.
"Fang Yuxuan, I have arrived. It’s time for you to bring out the grand gift you prepared for me!"
"The gift!"
Suddenly, Fang Yuxuan burst into a bitter laugh, full of resentment. "Jiang Yun, you killed my dear sister. Did you think I would spare that wretched Lu Xiaoyu?"
"If not for that wretched woman, my sister wouldn’t have died. It’s her fault, and I cannot let her live."
"I tell you, she’s long gone. Now, it’s your turn!"
"Jiang Yun, not only will I end you, but I will also destroy everyone on Hidden Peak. All of you will accompany my sister in death!"
Fang Yuxuan’s words made Jiang Yun’s eyes look angrier.
Jiang Yun cares about only a few people, but each one is very important to him. If anyone dare to harm them, he will retaliate!
Even though Jiang Yun was filled with anger, he calmly asked, "If she was already dead, then what was that sound I just heard?"
"If you want to know, hehe, just wait here patiently. When I’m in a good mood one day, I will take you to ask her in person!"
After saying this, Fang Yuxuan’s voice suddenly disappeared.
This made Jiang Yun frown, as he couldn’t understand what the other party meant.
Despite luring himself into Sword Cave, the enemy didn’t attack him. Instead, they made him wait here slowly…
After a moment of thought, Jiang Yun’s face lit up as he realized, "I get it now. His real aim isn’t to kill me, but to trap me and make me miss the opening of Mirage!"
"He probably isn’t inside Sword Cave himself."
"That means, Little Yu’s message is very likely to be fake."
"Because Fang Yuxuan knows well that he can only lure me to this Sword Cave by taking advantage of my concern for Little Yu!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun’s heart suddenly relaxed.
As long as Lu Xiaoyu is safe, even if he couldn’t enter Mirage, Jiang Yun would still be willing.
However, surrendering without a fight and waiting to die is not Jiang Yun’s style.
"I want to see if this Ten Thousand Swords Cave can really trap me for three months."
Jiang Yun turned to look behind him.
Just a step away is the cave entrance, he could leave the Sword Cave by taking that step.
However, Jiang Yun knew well that this short distance might not be easy to cross.
So he didn’t act recklessly, but instead released his special power to see if there were any hidden dangers here.
At the same time, Fang Yuxuan, who was inside Fence Tao PeakPeak Lord’s cave, was glaring angrily at his teacher.
Fang Yuxuan at this moment was no longer the outstanding and elegant person that Jiang Yun first saw.
His eyes were bloodshot, shining with a fierce light, and he had lost a lot of weight.
Especially with a few drops of unknown blood on his white clothes, making him look like a hungry wolf ready to attack at any moment.
"Teacher, why don’t you let me kill him directly and avenge Ruolin?"
Wei Zhengyang looked at Fang Yuxuan with a pained expression and said, "Xuan’er, it’s not that I don’t want you to kill him, but you can’t do it now."
"Gu Bulao must have left a special power on Jiang Yun, so if Jiang Yun dies, Gu Bulao will definitely know. That guy’s temper is so bad that even the sect master has to be cautious. I might not be able to protect you then."
"But if we just trap Jiang Yun, even if Gu Bulao finds out, he can’t do anything to us. No matter how powerful he is, without my permission, he can’t enter Ten Thousand Swords Cave."
Fang Yuxuan still felt upset and said, "Can’t we just kill all the monsters at Hidden Peak, including Gu Bulao? I have never liked them!"
"Of course you can, but remember, we have to wait until you come out of Mirage before making any decisions!"
Wei Zhengyang looked serious and said, "Xuan’er, be careful on your journey in Mirage this time. It would be best if you could reach the Sky Reaching Realm. When you come back, your progress may benefit me too."
"When that time comes, the two of us can work together to defeat the monsters at Hidden Peak!"
"For now, don’t worry about anything else. Use your time wisely and try to increase your strength in the next three months!"
"Alright!"
With a nod, Fang Yuxuan immediately turned and left without even saying goodbye to Wei Zhengyang.
As Wei Zhengyang watched Fang Yuxuan walk away, his loving expression turned into indifference.
"Xuan’er, oh Xuan’er, please don’t disappoint your master. I have been training you for so many years, just waiting for you to reach the Sky Reaching Realm."
"Now, it’s almost time. Once you become a disciple of the Daoist temple, I can enter the Tao Spiritual Realm!"
"At that time, within the Seeking-Tao Sect, I will make the decisions!"
