Chapter 806: Illusion Killing Array
As Shao Zhengyang narrated, the full picture of the final battle gradually appeared in front of Meng Chao’s eyes.
On a certain level, the monster mastermind was very weak.
That was because its main mission was to “think, research, and nurture”, not to engage in simple and violent battles.
Therefore, it did not have the fangs and claws of an ordinary Apocalyptic Beast.
In order to dissipate heat and maximize its computational ability, a large number of its nerve bundles were exposed to the outside world. At most, they were wrapped in a layer of sticky cooling liquid, which made it easy for it to be attacked.
These nerve bundles were connected to the surrounding super brain, which greatly restricted its s.p.a.ce of activity.
Since it had been staying at the center of the super brain for a long time, part of its limbs had already degenerated. It could only wiggle slowly along the sulcus of its brain. It could not fly more than a hundred meters away.
Its abdominal cavity was swollen, and countless insect eggs the size of fingers were stored in it. That was their embryonic form. They had to undergo the initial gene modulation in its body before they could be sent to the crystal cl.u.s.ters, giant pillars, and cave walls to be nurtured.
These characteristics made it difficult for it to deal too many effective physical blows to the murderous Deity Realm experts, and it was also unable to withstand the amazing skills of the Deity Realm experts.
However, on another level, it was extremely powerful and terrifying.
This was because it was the most powerful mental warper, mind eroder, and illusion maker that the Deity Realm state experts had ever seen in their lives.
It was especially so when it did not hesitate to burn its life force to overload every mitochondria in the depths of every cell. It had formed a resonance with the entire super brain that was hundreds of meters in diameter, stirring up neural currents that were thicker than lightning. All the Deity Realm experts had felt that there was a spirit storm that happened once in a thousand years sweeping across their brains.
In an instant, an Illusion Killing Array had descended on the heads of the Deity Realm experts.
Shao Zhengyang told Meng Chao that he had only exchanged a glance with the monster mastermind. He had only seen the crystal clear face of a young girl on the monster mastermind’s chest. He sighed slightly, and his vision blurred. It was as if he had instantly traveled from the monster’s lair to another world.
It was the beginning of the barbaric era of chaos.
The sky was almost crushed by the lead clouds. Volcanoes erupted everywhere. Lava flowed in the air. The lava dripped down and turned into a burning rain of fire, burning the Earth until it was full of holes of all sizes.
It was like a h.e.l.lish environment. Only the strongest creatures could survive. There were crawling creatures that were larger than hundreds of meters and more terrifying than dinosaurs everywhere.
Their sh.e.l.ls were as hard as rocks. The gaps between their sh.e.l.ls were covered with crisscrossing dark red spirit tattoos, like magma that was about to solidify.
Their heartbeats were like the drumbeats of demons, and their breathing was like a deafening roar. The airflow they shot out carried a strong smell of sulfur, which would ignite if it came into contact with Mars.
They moved slowly like majestic mountains. With every step they took, there would be the sound of mountains collapsing and the earth cracking. The earth was constantly in a state of earthquake, which made people sweat in their hearts. They wondered if in the next second… the entire Earth’s crust would be shattered.
Before Shao Zhengyang had been able to react, he has felt an absolute pressure falling heavily from above his head.
When he looked back, he realized that he had unknowingly fallen into the hunting range of a Tyrannosaurus rex that was hundreds of meters tall.
His opponent’s feet was dozens of meters long and as hard as iron, and they were about to trample him.
The spirit flames surrounding its feet had told Shao Zhengyang that this was a War Trample that was a hundred times more intense than the War Trample of the Tyrant Mammoth, the ferocious beast from h.e.l.l.
Shao Zhengyang had reflexively tried to escape from the range of the super-giant Tyrannosaurus Rex’s stomp.
However, oddly enough, these super-giant reptiles that were as tall as mountains had moved very slowly. With their movement techniques, the Deity Realm experts could easily break through the speed of sound and circle them more than a hundred times in a minute.
However, in this strange world, the magnetic field of heaven and earth had seemed to be filled with a weird suction force that firmly held Shao Zhengyang in place.
He had to put in a hundred times more effort than in the normal world before he could move even a meter with great difficulty.
Thus, the distance from the giant Tyrannosaurus rex’s trampling range became the most difficult one hundred meters that Shao Zhengyang had ever run in his life.
Just as he had used all his strength and narrowly missed the giant Tyrannosaurus rex’s toes, another giant reptile swung its tail hammer, which had been more than ten meters in diameter, and ruthlessly smashed at him.
Just like that, under the siege of hundreds of giant reptiles, he had escaped danger and run for his life!
Shao Zhengyang said that the Illusion Killing Array he had encountered was still considered okay.
At least, the giant Tyrannosaurus rex was still within the range of human understanding.
However, the other Deity Realm experts had not been able to be as lucky as him.
One of the Deity Realm powerhouses had fallen into a deep sea in a trance. To be more precise, it had been at the bottom of the deep sea, deep in an endless and incomparably dark trench.
The water pressure in the surroundings had been equivalent to thousands of Tyrant Mammoths stepping on an area the size of the tip of a needle at the same time.
Even a main battle tank made of the toughest super alloy would have been rolled into uniform, tight, and seamless iron lumps there.
Even a Deity Realm powerhouse who had circulated his spirit energy to the maximum had felt that his internal organs were about to spurt out from his seven orifices.
At that moment, a strong undercurrent had come from the foot of the Deity Realm powerhouse.
The undercurrent formed a swirl that had almost torn off his limbs and even his facial features from his body.
Then, the Deity Realm powerhouse saw in horror that a cl.u.s.ter of messy, glowing tentacles that was hundreds of times larger than an adult giant squid was slowly floating up from the deepest part of the trench.
Deep Sea!
Heavy pressure!
Endless darkness!
Countless tentacles wriggled crazily. The dark light flickered and changed continuously, emitting a soul-stirring soundless shriek!
Each tentacle had been more than three to five meters in diameter. It had been covered with suckers, and each of the suckers had been inlaid with densely packed sharp teeth!
It had been a nightmare that could cause both deep sea phobia and agoraphobia patients to have a heart attack at the same time.
Even though the will of a Deity Realm expert was as hard as iron, his spirit had also been greatly shocked, and his spirit index had fluctuated greatly.
There had also been a Deity Realm expert who seemed to have teleported to the wilderness where there was nothing.
There had been a thin mist around him. In the distance, he could vaguely see a towering tree that pierced through the clouds. However, there had been endless barren land under his feet.
This Deity Realm expert had run for a full half an hour, but he never found any traces of monsters or even life.
The towering trees on the horizon had just been an out-of-reach silhouette.
While the Deity Realm expert had been puzzled, an extremely shocking scene happened.
Not far in front of him, a hill that had stuck out a little suddenly split open, and a huge eye had protruded out from it!
That’s right. Cornea, iris, pupil, lens… everything had been in place. It had indeed been a human eye.
However, it had been more than ten meters in diameter!
Just think about it. An eye that was as tall as a three-or four-story building had suddenly popped out from a crack in the ground and stared at a human.
Even the Deity Realm expert with heaven-piercing power had felt his internal organs go numb as if they had been electrified.
No, it had not been an eye.
Accompanied by a series of cracking sounds, the endless wilderness had been torn apart by more than ten thousand cracks at the same time. More than ten thousand huge eyeb.a.l.l.s that were more than ten meters in diameter had popped out.
The tens of thousands of eyeb.a.l.l.s had all emitted a demonic light and stared straight at the Deity Realm expert.
Right then, the clouds had dispersed and the Deity Realm expert had finally spotted a “towering tree” on the horizon.
It had not been a tree at all.
Instead, it had been a pale and emaciated human limb that had been magnified thousands of times!
Just listening to Shao Zhengyang’s description, Meng Chao was drenched in sweat and felt a chill all over his body.
The glowing tentacles in the endless abyss, the wasteland with ten thousand giant eyes… These were scenes that were even more terrifying than the apocalypse.
He also did not know if he would have been able to “break through the defense” if he had been in such a terrifying nightmare and had always possessed an indestructible spirit defense line.
He could not help but ask, “Uncle Shao, don’t you know that it’s an illusion?”
“Of course we do. So what?”
Shao Zhengyang told Meng Chao that compared with Heaven Realm experts, Deity Realm experts paid more attention to the cultivation of two major abilities. One was to sense and interfere with the magnetic field of the planet to absorb the power of the surrounding heaven and earth for their own use. The other was to temper the mind and control the mind. So-called “willpower like steel and iron” was just the beginning.
Moreover, many Deity Realm warriors were experts at penetrating the mind and creating illusions.
Even Thunder G.o.d Shao Zhengyang himself could create an illusion of lightning and thunder.
By implanting brain waves into the enemy’s brain, the enemy would think that he had been struck by lightning and turned into a pile of charcoal!
Therefore, almost all the Deity Realm experts realized that they had been attacked mentally the moment they had fallen into the Illusion Killing Array.
However, realizing was one thing, and escaping from the Illusion Killing Array was another.
The abilities of the monster mastermind and the Supernatural Ent.i.ty, the Tree of Wisdom, were on a completely different level when it came to creating illusions.
The “paradise” that the Supernatural Ent.i.ty had meticulously constructed had to be designed in such a way that all the details were lifelike. Only by making the illusion look real could the bewitched be fooled.
However, once Meng Chao, a determined bewitched person, woke up, his brainwaves would set off ripples. It was very likely to trigger a chain reaction that would cause the entire illusionary realm to completely collapse. As for the Tree of Wisdom that created the illusionary realm… it would even suffer a strong spirit backlash.
The monster mastermind was different.
It did not bother to use any tricks to fool Deity Realm experts into the illusionary realm.
Instead, it had condensed its brainwaves into thorns and whipped dozens of the strongest human brains into the Illusion Killing Array in the simplest and most brutal way!
“Yes, it was indeed an illusion!
“But even if it is not the real world, the spirit storm on your cerebral cortex can still burn your souls to ashes!”
That was the monster mastermind’s final will.
