Chapter 342 Illusion
Wu Jianghao came to the side of Su Yuan and others: "Envoys, the Xiqu River is in front of us.
"Xiqu River is so spectacular!" Looking at the rushing river in the distance, Tang Jiao's eyes lit up and she immediately took out her mobile phone to take a few photos.
Su Yuan and others also looked at it from a distance, seeing Xiqujiang for the first time.
Xiqujiang is a large river that runs from east to west all the way to the West Sea. It is surrounded by water and mist all year round, making it quite magnificent.
Wu Jianghao said to a few people: "If most people want to cross the Xiqu River, they usually have to take a detour to Huicheng in the east. For our team, we can just fly there directly."
There must be a way for ordinary people to cross such a large river.
For example, some cities in the east have ports or bridges where the river width is narrow and the river flow is gentle, allowing access to the other side.
But if the escort team also takes this detour, the entire trip will take at least three or four days longer.
Since the escort team are all star-level experts with the ability to fly into the sky, there is no need to detour because of this.
Although there is some water and mist, there is no danger in it.
Level 3 masters traveling from north to south usually fly directly there.
Wu Jianghao politely said to Su Yuan and others: "Envoys, let's rest for a while before preparing to move forward. Flying across the Xiqujiang River will take a lot of time."
As an official veteran of Yaoxing, Wu Jianghao is very aware of the power of the Sky Patrol Division.
But in the last Baiyanhui attack, Su Yuan and these "preparatory newcomers to the Tianxian Division" were stronger than Wu Jianghao expected!
This made Wu Jianghao even more convinced and did not dare to neglect.
"Anything is fine!" Xiong Chunyang said nonchalantly.
Tang Jiao nodded and said, "It all depends on General Manager Wu's orders."
Su Yuan and others naturally had no objection. They were indeed a little tired after traveling for several days. Shining stars are not gods, so proper rest is still necessary.
"Okay, let's rest where we are. I'll take a few people to the river to have a look first."
Tang Jiao said: "Mr. Wu, I'll go with you too."
"Okay, I'll trouble Ambassador Tang." Wu Jianghao agreed with a smile, and then took Tang Jiao and a few of his men to the river to investigate.
The rest of the people were resting where they were.
Su Yuan and Lin Chongyun sat down on the spot. Xiong Chunyang looked at Su Yuan and the two of them and wanted to walk away, but after thinking for a while, he also sat down.
While Su Yuan was resting and recovering, he looked up the river with his farsighted vision.
The water and mist filled the sky, slightly blocking the line of sight, but Su Yuan had omniscient vision and could see everything at a glance.
"I think the skills you use seem to be fire and space. Was that skill last time for someone else?" Lin Chongyun asked Su Yuan casually.
Um?
Xiong Chunyang next to him immediately pricked up his ears. Hearing this, it seemed that the two of them had crossed paths before?
"That's right." Su Yuan nodded, then asked, "As a lightning archer, it's no wonder you were so satisfied with that skill at the beginning. From this point of view, I just won't take out the Blue God's Thunder Bamboo Branch." , You should also change, right?"
Lin Chongyun nodded calmly and said: "That's right."
Su Yuan smiled, but he didn't feel it was too pity.
I had already made a lot of money from the last transaction, and unexpectedly gained the Heavenly Meteor Purple Iron, which may be an important material for refining the star weapon in the future.
The bamboo branches of Qingshen Yao Lei Bamboo are still regenerable items for me.
Speaking of this, Su Yuan thought of the situation in Qingming Realm again.
Although the Green Underworld has established a connection with the main world using itself as a transit, it can absorb the star power of the outside world.
But after all, it is absorbed from the main world, and the speed is limited. This results in the concentration of star power in the Qing Nether World being never high, at least not exceeding the concentration in the outside world.
Affected by the concentration of star power, the growth rate of various thunder bamboos in the bamboo sea is also very slow.
There are some ways to solve this problem, such as decomposing a large number of star stones, such as establishing a barrier...
But these methods only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If you want to fundamentally solve this problem, there is only one way...
That's Xingmai!
If there could be a star vein in the Green Underworld, even the lowest dog vein among the four star veins of dragon, tiger, wolf, and dog would be more than enough for me and the Green Underworld now.
The last time the Qing Ning Realm absorbed the bamboo sea in the center of Ji Lei Ridge, Su Yuan was not only able to sweep away the bamboo sea, mountain peaks, and rivers through the Qing Ning Realm, he could even faintly feel the star veins underground!
Perhaps it might be possible to plunder the star veins through the Blue Underworld, but this is not a simple matter.
Star veins are the foundation and are extremely precious. Almost all places where there are star veins are occupied by forces.
Although I have ideas, I still have to think about it in the long term...
Not long after, Wu Jianghao and Tang Jiao returned and found nothing unusual.
So, after everyone rested in place for two or three hours, they prepared to cross the river.
"According to the method mentioned before, everyone should stand up and set off!" Wu Jianghao greeted.
There was fog on the river. In order to avoid accidents, Wu Jianghao asked the three Gangyan Dragons to stay close together. The other Supervisors of the Yaoxing Star all formed a circle around the three Gangyan Dragons and flew across the Xiqu River in this way.
Everyone stood still, and soon, Wu Jianghao and a group of supervisors from the Arctic Prison were the first to move.
Lin Chongyun suggested: "The line of sight is blocked. For safety reasons, let's separate and guard in each direction."
Tang Jiao nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's divide it according to the four corners of northwest, northeast, southwest and southeast!"
Su Yuan and Xiong Chunyang didn't have any objections either.
The four people immediately dispersed and scattered in the four corners of the team in addition to the supervisors who were surrounded by three steel dragons. Among them, Su Yuanfei was in the southeast corner.
Su Yuan opened his omniscient vision. Although it was filled with fog, he could see everything in all directions.
The team moved forward step by step, and soon disappeared into the fog.
Not only was the body submerged in the mist, but even the sound became weaker as if it was blocked. This is also the characteristic of water mist.
Time passed little by little.
As the team moved forward, the fog became thicker as they approached the center of the river, but it did not have much impact on Su Yuan.
Su Yuan turned around and saw that Tang Jiao, Lin Chongyun and Xiong Chunyang were all on guard.
Then Su Yuan opened his long sight and looked into the distance, still quite far away from the river bank.
"At this speed, we have to go forward for a while..."
Su Yuan withdrew his gaze, glanced around again, and then continued to move forward with the team.
It’s just that the white mist is endless, and time seems to be stretched unconsciously in this wisp of mist...
I don’t know how long it took, it seemed like just a moment, and then it seemed like a long time.
Su Yuan turned around and saw that Tang Jiao, Lin Chongyun, and Xiong Chunyang were also on guard.
Then Su Yuan opened his long sight and looked into the distance, still quite far away from the river bank.
"At the current speed, I'm afraid we'll still have to move forward for a while..."
Su Yuan withdrew his gaze and glanced around again...
"Pigs...people..."
But at this time, there was a slightly familiar voice that seemed to be vaguely ringing in the surrounding void.
"Pigman?" Su Yuan's heart moved slightly, what was that, but the voice was very familiar.
"Owner……"
"Owner……"
"Pfft!"
Su Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank: "Ruanruan!"
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
An increasingly clear voice rang in his ears, and the world in front of Su Yuan suddenly collapsed into darkness.
The next moment, Su Yuan opened his eyes, suddenly woke up, and immediately looked around.
The fog ahead is like a dragon, and the water is shining in the sky.
He and others were actually still by the river, and everyone around him was standing there with his eyes closed. Even the three steel dragons hadn't gathered together yet, as if time had gone back to when everyone had not set off.
On his shoulder, the slime was soft and kept shouting: "Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!"
"Illusion!"
Su Yuan's heart trembled.
When Ruanruan saw Su Yuan wake up, she was immediately overjoyed and pressed her body tightly against Su Yuan's face.
"Puh-chi-puh-chi (master master)!"
Su Yuan squeezed it: "Ruanruan, thank you."
Ruanruan was extremely excited: "Pfft!"
Su Yuan squeezed it softly and quickly scanned the field. Apart from being lethargic, everyone in the team seemed to have no change. They were breathing evenly and there were no injuries.
But Su Yuan immediately noticed the difference.
"There's someone missing!"
Su Yuan's eyes froze. There were originally three prisoners in the middle cage, but now there were only two. One was missing.
Since it was an escort mission, Su Yuan had already memorized the information of the seven prisoners, and a figure of a green-eyed young man suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Qiongying."
Qiong Ying seems to be an evil card master from the north, and her specific background is unknown.
According to the information given by Wu Jianghao, in order to practice secret techniques, this person captured a large number of star card masters for sacrifice, including several star masters from the Yanluo Kingdom.
Even a team of more than 60 people sent to arrest, including four shining stars, were all slaughtered and sacrificed by him, and finally escaped all the way to the east.
Yan Luo asked Dayan and Black Snow Nation to assist in intercepting it. The Sky Patrol Division attached great importance to it and, considering its threat, directly sent a Huiyue-level envoy to pursue it.
Even so, it took a lot of effort to catch him.
Su Yuan went to the nearest Tang Jiao to check, but raised his eyebrows: "Brilliant illusion."
Normally, if someone is under an illusion, others can try to force the target to wake up.
But some illusions are more special, such as the illusion that everyone in the team is currently using.
It is not offensive in itself, it just makes people fall into an illusion. However, if an outsider forcibly wakes the person up, it may cause mental damage to the subject.
Of course, it wasn't that Su Yuan had the foresight to see this, but that the caster deliberately showed this trait.
So after Ruanruan discovered this just now, she didn't dare to use extreme methods. She could only keep calling to try to make Su Yuan aware of the abnormality and wake up.
What the other party wants is to restrict the escort team as much as possible.
As for how he fell into the illusion, Su Yuan guessed that it was probably related to the Xiqu River and even the fog, but now was not the time to think too much.
"Ruanruan, how long have we been parked in place."
“Pfft, pfft, pfft (a few minutes)!”
Su Yuan had a quick exchange with Ruanruan and understood the situation at that time.
According to Ruanruan, it forcibly came out of the beast control space after noticing that it had stopped moving, probably within a few minutes.
And after it came out, the situation around it was already like this.
"How many minutes..."
Su Yuan looked into the thick fog, activated his omniscient vision with all his strength, spread out his long sight and searched continuously towards the other side of the Xiqu River.
But even to the limit of his omniscient vision, Su Yuan couldn't see anyone else or anything unusual.
With no results ahead, Su Yuan changed the direction of his gaze and carefully looked around to the left, right and behind him, but still found nothing.
"It's only a few minutes, where can we go? Is there a skill similar to [Space Gate]?"
Su Yuan raised his eyebrows. In terms of displacement and teleportation, space skills are the strongest.
Even if other non-space star card masters get skills like [Teleportation Gate], they cannot fully unleash its power.
It is almost impossible to fly out of the range of your own farsightedness within a few minutes.
"Where will that go..."
"Pfft!"
Ruanruan had an idea and transformed into a pair of small hands pointing towards the water.
Su Yuan's expression moved slightly, and he immediately walked to the shore and searched carefully under the water.
At first, nothing was seen.
However, when Su Yuan searched for more than ten kilometers westward along the Xiqu River, he suddenly discovered something.
"I really almost let you go away..."
Su Yuan formed a seal with his hands, silver light gathered in front of him, and soon a door to space opened.
Looking at the people on the shore, Su Yuan turned his hand and took out his long knife, slashed with it, and left the word "西流" on the shore.
Then Su Yuan put away his pillow, stepped into the door of space, and disappeared in place...
