Chapter 288: Isn't this a bit unauthentic? The realm of illusion
Yuan Qingtian touched his nose gently and an awkward smile appeared on his face.
He looked across at her with some embarrassment, and said sheepishly, "I'm so sorry, I was just in the heat of the moment and didn't control my strength, and I almost made a big noise."
Sea Spear Douluo was now covered in cold sweat, with several obvious black lines appearing on his forehead. He secretly felt lucky that he had just escaped a disaster.
He muttered softly: "You guys, when you get excited, it's really deadly! You almost cost me my life..."
At this time, Poseidon also appeared, with long fluttering hair, like a fairy descending.
She glanced at Yuan Qingtian, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she sighed: "This kind of soul skill that can cause large-scale changes in the terrain is still..."
Poseidon originally wanted to advise Yuan Qingtian to control his own power.
But when the words came to her lips, she remembered that this was not an ordinary sparring match, but a crucial battle that determined whether Yuan Qingtian could pass the assessment successfully.
As for the rest...there are no restrictions.
As long as Yuan Qingtian can defeat the seven guardians of the holy pillars one by one without the help of external forces, it doesn’t matter what soul skills he uses.
So those few words seemed to become a heavy burden, pressing on her throat, neither spitting it out nor swallowing it down.
It made her feel very uncomfortable.
And at this moment, Yuan Qingtian smiled understandingly, and that smile was like a spring breeze, warming and soothing people's hearts.
He nodded slightly, as if he could read people's minds, and said softly, "I understand."
"I won't use this soul skill again."
The understanding and tolerance revealed in those words made Poseidon's worries disappear quietly like a spring breeze.
Bo Saixi pursed her lips, a hint of gratitude in her beautiful eyes.
She looked at Yuan Qingtian with a gleam in her eyes, as if she wanted to imprint his figure deeply in her heart.
She whispered, "Thank you."
Some words don't sound so nice when they are spoken out loud.
Fortunately, Yuan Qingtian understood her.
Her mood suddenly became much better.
......
Yuan Qingtian and Poseidon walked together, passing through the forests outside the sea.
The trees in the forest were tall and dense, and the dappled sunlight filtering through the branches and leaves shone on the two of them, creating a unique atmosphere.
From the start of the assessment to now, it seems that only less than two hours have passed.
He is now facing the third guardian of the Holy Pillar.
The speed is simply staggering!
Bo Saixi would secretly glance at his handsome face from time to time, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
As the high priestess, she had seen countless young talents, but she had never seen a man like Yuan Qingtian before.
His strength, his calmness, and his composure all made her feel an indescribable attraction.
She, the high priest who was high and mighty and had not had such contact with a man for decades, seemed to be completely attracted by Yuan Qingtian at this moment.
While strolling leisurely in the garden, although Poseidon's steps were light, his inner curiosity was burning like a raging fire.
She always felt that Yuan Qingtian had some kind of indescribable charm, the kind of aura that made people want to get close to him but also feel a little afraid, which made her irresistible.
She tried to find out Yuan Qingtian's background and origins during casual chat, hoping to uncover his mysterious veil.
But Yuan Qingtian always stops talking halfway and is evasive...
It made her feel very itchy.
She couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied, feeling that Yuan Qingtian seemed to be deliberately keeping her in suspense.
At the same time, she felt an inexplicable attraction that made her want to continue exploring.
But actually...
Yuan Qingtian had some concerns.
"I already have my daughter and daughter-in-law, if I can get my first love..."
Yuan Qingtian could already imagine Qian Daoliu's face, as black as the bottom of a pot.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, "Am I being a little unkind..."
The two of them walked with their own thoughts, and soon they passed through the forest and came to the seaside.
The seven sacred pillars are located in seven directions of Poseidon Island.
This time, he had to face Sea Illusion Douluo who was stationed at the Sea Illusion Holy Pillar.
In the center of the sea, wisps of illusory blue light and shadows float like a dream. They seem to be the breath of mysterious creatures in the depths of the sea, or like the rising morning light in the sky that is crushed by the sea water and scattered on the earth.
These lights and shadows are like thin clouds, swaying gently with the breeze, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing.
Hidden in the blue smoke that is comparable to or even more so than smog, the specific appearance of the Holy Pillar is completely unpredictable, as if it had never existed.
"It's quite powerful to be mysterious. I hope it can help a little."
Yuan Qingtian came back to his senses, and his pair of deep pupils were like sharp swords, easily piercing through the blue smoke and finally falling on the seemingly tiny figure.
......
On the dusk-shrouded coast, a middle-aged man in a black robe stood like a pine tree.
He has a handsome face. Although he is about fifty years old, the years do not seem to have left too many traces on his face. Instead, it adds a bit of calmness and depth.
Around his body, a strange snake-like light band was looming, entwining his body and emitting a faint light.
This snake-shaped light band is neither a pure beast martial spirit nor a pure weapon martial spirit, but an existence between the two, named "Illusionary Snake".
The identity of a person who possesses this kind of martial spirit is naturally self-evident.
It was none other than one of the seven sacred pillar guardians, Haihuan Douluo!
At this moment, he was no longer as calm as usual. His brows were furrowed and his expression looked a little solemn.
"Did he see through me?"
Haihuan Douluo asked himself quietly in the depths of his heart, feeling an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
As a control-type soul master who has reached the level of Titled Douluo, his senses are naturally very sharp, no less than those of sea soul beasts in the deep sea, and he can capture the slightest movement.
Just now, he clearly felt a scrutinizing gaze falling on him.
Although that gaze only stayed for a brief moment, Haihuan Douluo could clearly feel the meaning behind it.
It felt like a giant passing by, looking down and glancing at the ants on the ground with disdain.
But what puzzled him was that this place was filled with the energy of his fantasy realm. Without a mental strength far superior to his, it would be impossible to penetrate the energy layer so easily and spy on him.
How did Yuan Qingtian do it?
He didn't believe that Yuan Qingtian, who was so young, could possess such powerful mental power.
I guess even the descendants of God are not this terrifying?
"Although both Seahorse and Sea Lance were defeated by you."
"but..."
Haihuan Douluo murmured softly, and then his eyes flashed with a sharp light, "I won't let you pass so easily!"
He is not good at fighting, but the realm of illusion he controls is extremely special. He can invisibly control the emotions of soul masters, trapping them in illusions and making them unable to extricate themselves, making them like fish on the chopping board, at his mercy.
......
at the same time.
Yuan Qingtian has already spread the wings of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and is flying towards the realm of illusion.
His expression did not change at all, as if he was oblivious to the power of Sea Illusion Douluo.
"Humph, you are really a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. You are so reckless."
Haihuan Douluo was at the other end of the blue cloud, watching Yuan Qingtian rushing forward fearlessly, and couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
In addition to being surprised, the competitive spirit in his heart surged up like a spring.
"Being overconfident in one's own abilities is not necessarily a good thing..."
He thought to himself, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.
He believed that as long as he used some tricks, the young man would stop here.
However, he knew very well in his heart that Yuan Qingtian was no ordinary person as he was able to defeat the two guardians in a short period of time.
Therefore, he decisively activated the power of the illusion realm, wanting to trap Yuan Qingtian in this illusion dominated by himself.
......
In the realm of fantasy.
Yuan Qingtian folded his wings. He was not in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he walked on the rough sea in a leisurely manner as if he was walking on flat ground.
The waves on the sea seemed to have no effect on him. He was like walking on solid land, with steady steps and calm demeanor.
The reason why he did this was that he wanted to see what new things Haihuan Douluo could come up with for him.
He was a little excited in his heart!
Not long after he walked on the so-called 'ground', several blurry figures suddenly surged and appeared in front of him.
These human figures seemed to be born from the void and instantly condensed into a tangible existence.
He paused slightly and looked at this group of 'strangers' with interest.
"Yuan Qingtian, you have caused us so much trouble!"
"You caused me to be left dead in the wilderness, leaving my wife and children without support, and eventually I died at the feet of those who begged for rice porridge. I hate you so much~!"
"I have no grudge against you, but you cut off my limbs and turned me into a human pig. I suffer discrimination and bullying all day long. I wish I could smash your bones, eat your flesh and drink your blood!"
...
Words filled with resentment and murderous intent were like sharp blades, piercing into Yuan Qingtian's ears without omission.
These voices, like the howling of the wind, carried with them coldness and despair, attempting to wrap his mind tightly around them.
He always had a calm smile on his face: "Is it just this extent?"
He was not speaking to these 'ghosts', but to the Sea Illusion Douluo who controlled the appearance of these 'ghosts'.
Most of these people died because of him.
When he was young, Bibi Dong often took him to those extremely poor and sparsely populated places for training.
Among the people in these places, only a few eat one meal and go hungry for three meals. Most people can't even afford rice porridge.
What will happen under this kind of environment?
Even the kindest person will lose his nature because of this.
Therefore, all kinds of extremely cruel acts often occur.
At that time, Yuan Qingtian was a little hesitant when he started to fight, but he got used to it later.
From then on, he would no longer be so afraid and disgusted by such things.
......
