#181 - Chapter 181: Illusion

After Qin Wushang descended, the situation on the arena seemed to instantly reverse. The Thirteenth Princess began to act arrogantly, and the Fourth Prince and the Thirteenth Princess's retainers also became smug. They believed that the Great Wu Emperor's arrival would make killing you as easy as turning over their hand. The Chu Princess and some Chu cultivators began to worry about you.

On the other hand, Qin Wushang on the arena also began to step-by-step close in on you. He truly lived up to his reputation as a Void Refinement expert. The power he exuded was earth-shattering, far surpassing the Netherworld Shadow previously displayed by the Fourth Prince. Your gaze was solemn; this was definitely a formidable enemy unlike any you had ever encountered!

"How dare you! You actually dared to injure my son! A subject injuring a prince is an act of rebellion, a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations! Who gave you the audacity?" Qin Wushang was like an emperor of the mortal realm. His words were law. Each word he spoke formed a large character in the sky, floating and scattering, forming a kind of rule that pressed down on Lin Changqing. Speaking was equivalent to establishing rules.

When the last sentence, 'Who gave you the audacity?' was uttered, thunder roared in the sky. Lin Changqing seemed to see himself imprisoned in an endless heavenly jail, with an emperor interrogating him: Who gave you the audacity?

"So strong, is this the Void Refinement realm?" Lin Changqing narrowed his eyes, gripping the Skywolf Seven Kill Blade behind him. He had never encountered an enemy of this level before. Merely speaking placed immense pressure on him!

"One step is enough to turn your world upside down," Qin Wushang said again. At the same time, he took a step forward with his left foot. With this step, boundless darkness swept towards Lin Changqing. Lin Changqing was swallowed by the darkness without any resistance. In a daze, he seemed to see a glimpse of the future: he used the Immortal King Body and many divine abilities to fight Qin Wushang, but he was defeated one by one, and finally had his head chopped off by Qin Wushang.

"Did you see that? This is your future. No matter how strong a genius is, if they don't grow up, they can only die before me." At this moment, Qin Wushang, wearing a yellow imperial robe, stood on the arena like an supreme god. The illusion he had just cast on Lin Changqing seemed to foreshadow the ending.

At this moment, the rhythm on the arena seemed to be entirely under Qin Wushang's control. You have to admit that Qin Wushang is indeed the number one expert in the Seven Kingdoms. The pressure this Void Refinement expert exerted on you was something you had never encountered before!

You began to think of ways to escape. A Void Refinement expert is definitely someone you can't defeat at your current level. Are you going to use the Seven Injury Fist to sacrifice all your lifespan? But sacrificing all your lifespan can only help you improve by four or five minor realms, at most allowing you to reach the third level of the Transformation God realm. Can this defeat Qin Wushang, a Void Refinement expert? You feel it's very difficult?

Could it be that this simulation is going to end prematurely? You thought so? You are unwilling. You still haven't obtained the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art. If you die like this, it would be too regrettable. The Stone Monkey Heavenly Art is clearly so close at hand.

And it was at this moment that Qin Wushang spoke again.

"Lin Changqing, you saw the illusion just now. The result of you attacking me will be like that, your end... You are indeed an unprecedented genius, but you ultimately haven't grown up yet. Now that you face me, there is only death." Qin Wushang looked at Lin Changqing with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently, "But I have always cherished talent. Even if you injured the Fourth Prince, committing the heinous crime of a subject offending the royal family, I can spare your life. It would be too regrettable to kill a genius like you. How about this? Kneel down and atone to the Fourth Prince. A subject daring to injure a prince is inherently a heinous crime. You only need to kneel down, and I will spare your life. In the future, you will be a top minister of my Great Wu Dynasty. I can even enfeoff you as a king. How about it? I can spare your life with just a kneel!"

"Let me kneel down!?" Lin Changqing laughed wildly through gritted teeth.

"What? You're unwilling? Then you want to die?" Qin Wushang's eyes turned cold, and he stepped out again with his left foot. Overwhelming power, the spiritual pressure unique to the Void Refinement realm, pressed down on Lin Changqing. Lin Changqing was forced to spit out blood, and the bones in his body seemed to be crushed by this Void Refinement spiritual power.

But Lin Changqing stubbornly resisted, staring at Qin Wushang with a crazy sneer.

"What kind of thing are you, to deserve me kneeling down? Besides, I guessed right, you're bluffing, aren't you?"

"If you had the ability to kill me, you would have done it long ago. Why bother talking nonsense to me? You first used an illusion to show me my inevitable death, and now you want me to kneel down. Are you trying to destroy my Dao heart? I guess right now, under the rules of the Starry Sky Ancient Road, you have no ability to kill me, right?"

Lin Changqing sneered. And upon hearing these words, Qin Wushang's gaze froze. He obviously hadn't expected Lin Changqing to see through his facade.

In fact, Lin Changqing's guess was correct. Qin Wushang really didn't have the ability to kill Lin Changqing right now. The Starry Sky Ancient Road restricts cultivators above the Nascent Soul realm from entering. It was already very difficult for Qin Wushang to appear here.

It was difficult for him to kill Lin Changqing now. The rules of the Starry Sky Ancient Road restricted him from doing so.

Therefore, Qin Wushang first showed an illusion, and then wanted Lin Changqing to kneel down, because he had no way to kill Lin Changqing, so he wanted to destroy Lin Changqing. Making an invincible genius kneel down would break his Dao heart!!

It was at this moment that Lin Changqing grinned and drew the Skywolf Seven Kill Blade, fiercely slashing towards Qin Wushang.

When this blade was swung out, the Void Refinement level spiritual pressure exuded by Qin Wushang was like paper, actually being shattered by the blade.

Lin Changqing laughed wildly: "I knew you dog thing was bluffing! You still want me to kneel down? I'll fucking hack you to death first!"

Lin Changqing used the Skywolf Seven Kill Blade to coldly and continuously slash at Qin Wushang. And Qin Wushang no longer had the invincible appearance he had just had. In the end, facing the blade slashed out by Lin Changqing, Qin Wushang directly ran away with the Fourth Prince!

You slashed away Qin Wushang, and you laughed wildly on the arena. Your previous guess was indeed correct.

From your previous conversation with Fairy Nishang, you know that Qin Wushang is a ruthless person who would even be willing to kill his wife. Facing a threat like you, how could he spare your life? This kind of overlord would definitely eliminate any possibility of future problems.

In addition, Qin Wushang first showed an illusion, and finally wanted you to kneel down. You speculated that Qin Wushang was bluffing. The Starry Sky Ancient Road restricts cultivators above the Nascent Soul realm from entering. Even if Qin Wushang entered, he would definitely be restricted. Perhaps he couldn't make too many moves, so Qin Wushang was using the illusion to scare you and make you kneel down, intending to break your Dao heart. If a genius kneels to others, needless to say, the path to invincibility would also be broken.

On the other hand, you also sensed the insidiousness of Qin Wushang. Knowing that he couldn't kill you for the time being, he first used an illusion to scare you, intending to break your Dao heart. But fortunately, you saw through him. In the end, you slashed him away, causing Qin Wushang to lose face greatly. You feel that the Seven Kingdoms will henceforth spread the story of Qin Wushang being slashed away by you!

Swinging a blade at Void Refinement, slashing Ma and splitting Wushang, this is definitely a beautiful tale. A Nascent Soul cultivator swung a blade and slashed away the Great Wu Emperor Qin Wushang!
