Real Illusion
Hun Kui’s demise ca as a shock, but the veterans quickly regathered themselves and ford a ring around their rings, lest they be next.
Human slaves disconnected from Bai Jie’s Suru Switch Scroll’s system celebrated.
“Brothers, maul them!” Xiaoshuai cried from Mu Yu’s shoulder, motivating their allies to reveal their aces.
Even though half of Bai Jie’s forces could not defeat veterans, such as Ku Mu, they were more than competent enough to stall the veterans.
Bai Jie, furious they lost seventeen stars and seven soldiers, detonated punches on A-Dai and Archfiend Baiyuan before mobilising the stars to incarcerate everyone. Everyone witnessed the stars enlarge – similarly to them being sucked into a different world.
“Ah, crap,” Mu Yu cursed. “What the hell is this desolate plane, and where’s everyone else?”
Xiaoshuai sniffed the air. “Weird. This is a real illusion.”
“A what?” Mu Yu touched the grass, confirming the grass was there, albeit not susceptible to his will. “Ah, I get it now.”
“Yep, everything here is real, but we’re still inside Suru Switch Scroll. The white freak must’ve migrated things from different places, just like we were transported here on our way to Sword Shadow City, to fool our vision and hearing.”
“Guess Bai Jie isn’t confident his forces could prevail against our united front.” Mu Yu summoned Reflection Compass. “Dang. It can’t pick up on the other’s presences.”
As they remained outside Suru Switch Scroll, those fighting under Zhuge Xiaosheng and Helian Kong were oblivious to what happened inside, fighting purely off bravery and fear as fuel. Corpses and rubble littered the ground as both sides continued to trade in a war of elents. Zhuge Xiaosheng took out three Ascension Realm opponents thus far, keeping their fires stoked. The stars overhead concerned them for the vibes it gave off were nefarious.
Utilising Universe Hexagram Seal Star, Zhuge Xiaosheng enveloped everyone inside an octagon white barricade, consequently sealing the firmant. As a result of the shield spinning through the air, three invaders were sliced in half.
“We have to kill as many as we can!” Zhuge Xiaosheng howled as he intercepted an Ascension Realm Ninth Layer soul race mber.
As Gu Yitian wandered on snow summit he was transported to, searching for an exit, Bai Jie abruptly appeared in his path, hand at the ready. Gu Yitian swiftly drew his sword and advanced, only to absorb a palm strike to the chest and eat snow upon landing in the mountain.
“Stay there. I’m going to get rid of you one by one. So of you are still useful to , after all.” Bai Jie ca up behind Yu Mo, who was totally exposed out in the ocean, next and restrained her with starlight chains.
Bai Jie did not waste ti with drivel because the illusion was not flawless, and he could not afford to let Sword Shadow regroup. Within fifteen minutes ti, he subdued Gu Yitian, Yu Mo, Xiao Ran, Xin Buxing and Wanwan. Archfiends Qinglong and Baiyuan, sorely outnumbered against dozens at once, were no match for Bai Jie when he jumped them. Bai Jie laid into both archfiends and left them on the ground. Bai Jie’s next target was Mu Yu, who was arguably the biggest hindrance to him out of the four brothers.
Because the places they were transported to were real places, there were boundaries as to where the places started and ended. Mu Yu, therefore, kept flying until he found the hint of an exit. Alas, he was forced to raise his sword mid-flight to deflect a downward beam aid at him.
“Nobody can help you this ti.” Bai Jie appeared before Mu Yu, stare wrathful.
“I’m not digging you a hole,” Mu Yu responded, eyes flashing black and white.
“I’m going to enjoy fixing your mouth.”
Bai Jie, wearing a grin, condensed a starlight sword. Switching the sky out for a night sky, Bai Jie initiated the first slash. Mu Yu threw his sword up, black and white qis performing Celestial Swords Nine Catalysts into countless swords to respond to Bai Jie’s onslaught.
Again, Mu Yu was outclassed in a head-to-head clash, giving him no choice but to step back and then teleport behind Bai Jie, hoping to cleave the latter from a blind spot. Bai Jie swept his arm in an arc overhead, brushing Mu Yu’s downward swing to the side and then redirected the tip of his sword to Mu Yu’s throat. Mu Yu used the sideways montum to land a crescent kick on Bai Jie’s wrist, his other foot deploying Heavenly Star Formation. Mu Yu made an attempt to harvest Bai Jie’s head from behind, but the latter anticipated it and shielded himself with a starlight shield.
“You won’t even scratch once at this rate in my dao artefact.” Bai Jie turned seven stars into seven giant snakes in addition to deploying a domain.
