Colorful flowers of all sizes cover the entire slightly undulating plain like a carpet.
And she was standing in the middle of it.
I could hear the laughter of girls.
Xi Heng turned his head and saw several petite girls running and jumping in the sea of flowers.
"Illusion?"
"Is the Goddess of Scarlet Sky finally going to attack me? Or is this another anomaly..."
She drew out her sword and urged her swordsmanship to try to escape from this illusion.
The warm sunlight gradually became a little colder, and the sound of rippling waves came to my ears again.
But the scene before her was motionless, and her vision and half of her hearing were still affected.
"strangeness."
The illusion should not be created by Chen Fenghuo.
She just activated the sword heart and was able to defeat the opponent directly.
The illusion that the opponent can cast should not be enough to hinder the operation of her sword heart.
Since the illusion was not created by the other party, it must be in the sea.
"Is this one of the many illusions at the border of the realm that the demon mentioned?"
Xi Heng lowered his head slightly.
In this illusion, her figure suddenly became petite, like the little girls throwing sandbags on the flowers in the distance.
"Mi Jie! Come and play too——"
In the distance, a girl with a cheerful voice waved and called out to her.
Xi Heng didn't pay much attention to it and just quietly examined his appearance in the illusion.
There was a thin bloody scratch on the palm of her hand, and she didn't know where she was cut.
"No."
She herself did not open her mouth, but she heard the delicate voice of this body: "I still want to go to the mountain."
"There are no immortals on the mountain, that's all made up!" Another voice came from the distance.
The petite figure stood up and said, "Yes, there are immortals. Didn't the bald monk say that I have the qualifications to practice? I should go to the mountain."
“I have to go to the mountains…”
As if waking up from a dream, the scene of the sea of flowers in front of me gradually became blurred.
A feeling of trance wandered in his mind. Xi Heng closed his eyes, opened them again, and returned to the reality of the cabin.
At this moment, she was holding a sword and standing in front of the open hatch.
“This illusion is somewhat real.”
If I hadn't comprehended the sword's heart, I might have been stuck in it for quite a long time.
thump--
The sound of someone falling into the water outside the cabin brought her back to her senses.
The dark and empty cabin was not an illusion. Chen Fenghuo had already left and no one knew where he had gone.
Because of their previous cooperation, they have restored their equal status and are no longer prisoners of each other.
Xi Heng no longer had any reason to restrain the other party.
But before that, Chen Fenghuo rarely went out.
Normally, at this time of the night, the other party should stay in the cabin obediently.
Now, it has disappeared.
"She was probably also affected by the illusion...and so were the other crew members." Xi Heng left the cabin and quickly returned to the deck.
It was because she had a sword heart that she was able to break free from the illusion.
Her crew also includes Chen Fenghuo, but he does not have the same level of power as Kenshin to eliminate the influence.
On the deck, many boatmen and sailors were walking around in confusion and sluggishness.
They murmured some unclear words that were difficult to hear, as if they were controlled by something.
Several people came to the side of the ship, climbed up and jumped into the cold deep sea.
The previous splashing sound was the sound of the crew falling into the sea.
Xi Heng acted quickly and did not waste any energy to rescue the crew members who had already fallen into the water. Instead, he pulled the crew members who had not yet fallen into the sea to the center and tied them to the poles with the ropes that were always available on the deck.
Trapped in the haze of illusion, the crew had no strength to break free.
Gradually, nearly a hundred crew members on the deck were controlled by Xi Heng.
As for the crew members in the cabin below, they should not fall into the sea, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Then, Xi Heng started looking for Chen Fenghuo.
When I returned to the cabin, I saw a group of people had left their cabins and were walking slowly in a daze.
The girl walked among the wandering figures, listening to the names and titles they spoke.
Gradually I understood that this group of people were in a fantasy world, playing different roles.
They could be fathers or mothers, or children like her, or they could be cultivators. Some of them would raise their sword fingers and scold demons and monsters, which looked quite funny.
"Why does such an illusion exist?" Xi Heng asked himself.
Where does the illusion on the sea come from and why does it appear like this?
Are the events in the fantasy world echoes of the past, or are they just meaningless fantasies?
She really didn't know, so she just continued to return to the cabin.
The hatch was still open. A girl in a white robe was sitting in front of a table illuminated by the moonlight. She raised and lowered her fingers slightly on the table. Her hazy eyes looked at the new moon in the sky. She opened her mouth and said in a weak voice:
"Senior Sister Mi Jie, are you really going to betray the sect?"
"What?" Xi Heng held his forehead with his hand.
She had also heard this name mentioned by the other party.
"The Du Hai Sect has never treated Senior Sister unfairly. Yesterday, the elder said that he would take Senior Sister as his disciple and train her as the next head." Chen Fenghuo murmured, "Why did Senior Sister do this?"
"Is it that powerful?"
In the illusion that Xi Heng had just seen, the person named Mi Jie was just a little girl who was injured while climbing a mountain.
In the blink of an eye, the Mi Jie that Chen Fenghuo heard turned into a senior sister in the immortal cultivation sect.
"Heh... maybe it's just as Senior Sister said. We are just trapped beasts that have given up struggling."
"But the path to becoming an immortal is over, Senior Sister Mi Jie." Chen Fenghuo turned around and stared at Xi Heng with dim eyes.
"If you insist on promoting the Spiritual Blood Absorption Method, I'm afraid that before we can obtain enough spiritual energy, the resentment in the world will be enough to completely submerge our Chonghai Realm." She seemed to be dissuading him:
"The resentment created by such evil methods is several times more serious than the spiritual energy. It will never last long."
"It is difficult for the spirit to resist resentment. Practicing in this way is against the will of heaven and will surely lead to great disaster in the future."
"The way of heaven has been revealed. What's wrong with going against the will of heaven... You are so gracious, Senior Sister. However, the Blood Sea Law will not only harm you, but also the people of Chonghai..."
"Please, Senior Sister."
Her voice was weak, but one could hear a hint of pleading in it.
"..."
A long silence fell.
Xi Heng tilted his head in front, thinking that Chen Fenghuo lost his voice because he was about to break free from the illusion.
Before entering, you have to wait for the other party to come back to his senses and discuss the illusion.
But the next moment, Chen Fenghuo did not shake his head to wake up, but slowly stood up, took a deep breath and approached Xi Heng.
"Senior Sister, I can do whatever you want. I just want you to be my senior sister."
Seeing the other person reaching out to him, out of curiosity about what he was going to do, he let Chen Fenghuo touch his shoulder.
Then, the other party's five fingers trembled slightly and moved downwards.
The five fingers touched Xi Heng's shoulder, then went around his armpit, touched the curve of his body, and then lifted slightly.
The other party let out a faint breath and slowly approached as if losing strength.
"What the hell is going on..." Xi Heng held his forehead with his hand.
"Would you, the immortal cultivators, do such things?"
After listening to what Chen Fenghuo said just now, and combining it with the illusions she had experienced before, she almost understood that the scenes projected into people's minds by these illusions were all things that had happened in the past.
"The Blood Sea Technique was spread by this person called Mi Jie?"
"Then, this person is probably the one who detonated Chonghai's immortal realm, the guy known as the Blood Tribulation." Xi Heng sighed softly:
"Senior, it would be great if you could listen to your junior sister and not do so many weird things to blow up the immortal cultivation place, so that I can also embark on the immortal path after I come here..."
But unfortunately, the other party obviously didn't listen.
Afterwards, everything that was supposed to happen had already happened.
Xi Heng looked at the strange movements of the Goddess Chitian, and then moved to the side.
The other party had taken off the white robe he was wearing, revealing several close-fitting clothes that showed off his slim figure.
Then, for some reason, Chen Fenghuo seemed to have locked onto her. He turned around, whispered "Senior Sister" again, and came closer again.
"Eh?"
Why are you still tracking?
Xi Heng tried to dodge at first, but when he saw the other person was about to fall, he subconsciously reached out to support him and stabilize him.
Then, he reached out and patted the other person's confused little face.
"Hey, are you still conscious? Wake up quickly."
"Why are you avoiding me, Senior Sister?" But the other party just complained.
"Ah..." Xi Heng was distressed.
……
Chapter 96: Still Wanting More
"Sister, don't go, don't go..."
Xi Heng took the time to light a candle, bringing some light into the overly dim room.
The candle inserted in the groove of the table flickered, lighting up the only star in the thick darkness.
Just like in the boundless sea, her fleet added a touch of extraordinary to the boundless ocean.
The dim light illuminated the long desk with several books spread out on it, and also illuminated the two people sitting by the bed.
Xi Heng supported Chen Fenghuo's frail body and let her snuggle up to him.
The other person, who was trapped in an illusion, only half opened his hazy eyes, and weakly raised his hand in front of his eyes, his fingers seemed to fall on her face.
The girl pushed the other person's fingers away.
Then, he patted the other person's soft face with his hand.
"Wake up."
It feels pretty good...
The girl put aside this fleeting thought and thought about how to wake the other person up.
The only move she has that can directly affect other people's minds is Kenshin.
