"Cough! Cough!" Leaves coughed violently and a mouthful of blood was shot out from her mouth.
However, his eyes were still filled with confusion, as if there was nothing there …
The illusion spirit energy on the second floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace was attracted by Ye Feng and rushed towards him from all directions. Ye Feng, on the other hand, was like a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing the spirit energy from the illusion.
Even the cracks began to appear on the four spirit pillars that maintained the illusion array on the second floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. They began to gather towards the center.
The entire s.p.a.ce seemed to be on the verge of collapse. This was almost unimaginable in the past.
Seeing this, the spectators outside the Heavenly Mystery Palace could not help but be shocked.
"Daoist Master Zhao, look at this. This isn"t the first time I"ve come to spectate and comprehend the Dao. However, this is the first time I"ve seen such a strange scene," someone said in surprise.
"That"s right, this illusion formation was created by Daoist Master Le Feng through painstaking efforts. How could it be destroyed by a mere Qi Condensation student? It doesn"t make sense."
Daoist Master Zhao bitterly smiled. Everyone was surprised, but he himself was the same.
"It wasn"t him who took the initiative to destroy it. I"m guessing that it might have something to do with his previous experiences …"
When someone heard this, they were stunned and then repeated, "The previous experiences …"
He shook his head and muttered to himself, "But, logically speaking, this second floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace should be filled with illusions of the past. Ye Feng is a twenty year old young man, how much of the past needs to be recalled?"
He paused for a moment before a glint flashed across his eyes. "What did he see …?"
… ….
At the entrance to the second floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace …
Qing Xuan had already led the two of them to break through the formation.
"Little girl, I"m not praising you. You"re really amazing, to be able to see through the illusions of the first level of the Heavenly Secrets Palace." Young Master Hua sighed as he raised his head, his face filled with pleasant surprise.
If he had to stop at the first level of the Heavenly Secrets Palace because of an illusory magic array, then he would be depressed to death. After all, this was an opportunity that he had paid a great price for.
w.a.n.g Tianzhi"s att.i.tude towards Qing Xuan was clearly much better than before.
"That"s right, we relied on the Fantasy Breaking Pill you gave us to make it all the way to the second floor. But, what method did you use to be able to stay unharmed?"
In w.a.n.g Tianzhi"s creed, as long as one showed their strength and proved themselves, they would be able to obtain his respect.
It was very obvious that Qing Xuan had already obtained his respect.
"Let"s not talk about this for now. Since we have already reached the second level …" "It"s about time to find Ye Feng"s position and eliminate him," Qing Xuan smiled mysteriously.
However, when she raised her head and looked at the s.p.a.ce on the second floor, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
It was a complete mess.
What surprised them even more was that Ye Feng was sitting in the middle of the second floor. He was motionless, as if he had been petrified.
There was no need for them to find him. Ye ZIfeng was right in front of his eyes.
"Good boy, just now you were so arrogant and ended up in this second level illusion world. Now, I will show you!" w.a.n.g Tian Zhi snorted heavily. A cruel smile appeared on his face.
"Wait a moment." Before Qing Xuan could finish, …
w.a.n.g Tian Zhi had already started moving towards where Ye Xiao was.
"Sigh... "This fool, why is he so impulsive?" Qing Xuan cursed in a low voice as an obvious trace of anger flashed across her pretty face.
Young Master Hua shook his head with a smile, "Little sister, the difference a person makes has nothing to do with intelligence or stupidity. It"s just like how you desire to comprehend the Dao in the end, so you have to be careful when you think about it; Brother Tianzhi, you just want to teach Ye Feng a lesson and vent your anger."
"But... "I"m just afraid that before his anger can be released, he"ll be full of it again..." Qing Xuan lightly sighed as she spoke with a sunken expression.
With that said, Young Master Hua"s expression changed slightly. "What, do you think that Brother Tianzhi would fail when he hits a leaf that he can"t move?"
"It"s not a problem, it"s a certainty!" Qing Xuan said with a resolute expression.
Just as he expected, just as Qing Xuan finished her sentence, w.a.n.g Tian Zhi suddenly cried out in pain.
A huge force lifted him up and threw him into the air. Afterwards, he flew out heavily and landed at the entrance to the second floor, which was also at Qing Xuan"s feet.
"Hmm, how could this be …"
Qing Xuan froze upon seeing this. She had thought that w.a.n.g Tian Zhi would be like Ye Feng and would be stuck in an illusion, unable to come out.
But now, the illusion didn"t appear. How could w.a.n.g Tian Zhi fall out of the sky? What happened?
She knew w.a.n.g Tianzhi would suffer a loss, but she didn"t expect him to do so in such a manner.
She felt that this matter was not simple. She focused her mind and carefully used her spirit energy to investigate the situation around Ye Zifeng.
After the time it took to burn half an incense stick, her expression abruptly changed.
"How is it, what did you discover?" Young Master Hua"s eyes lit up as he asked.
"I don"t know why, but Ye Feng managed to absorb all of the spirit energy in the illusion array. There"s no longer any illusions on the second floor," Qing Xuan cried out.
"What did you say?" w.a.n.g Tian Zhi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and got up from the ground with great difficulty.
"This... "If the illusion world is gone, then what is there for us to comprehend?" Young Master Hua frowned. His actions weren"t as impulsive as w.a.n.g Tian Zhi"s and he still held a trace of expectation towards Wu Dao.
The first level was a barrier that prevented them from advancing, while the second level was an opportunity that allowed them to gain enlightenment of the Dao.
It was clear that Ye Feng had walked the path of others, leaving them with no other choice.
Qing Xuan"s face sank. To her, it could be said that the situation was extremely dire.
"It seems like we can only do it once and for all," she said in a cold voice.
"What do you mean? What do you want to do?" w.a.n.g Tianzhi asked excitedly.
As long as there was someone who could help him teach Ye Feng a lesson, he would naturally be overjoyed.
"Yeah, we can"t even get close to him, so how are we going to make a move against him?" Young Master Hua looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Qing Xuan smiled sweetly, "Humans can"t get close, but spiritual energy can."
"You … "What do you want to do?" w.a.n.g Tian Zhi"s thoughts seemed to have been opened as his pupils contracted.
"Although I don"t know how Ye Feng did it, since he has already absorbed all of the spiritual energy in the illusion formation into himself, and judging from his expression, it seems like he is in a lot of pain, then, why don"t we add more stuff on him, give him our own spiritual energy, and directly push him to death?"
w.a.n.g Tian Zhi and Young Master Hua were startled and nodded their heads as if they had understood something.
"The way is to consider … "But if it"s like this, we might be able to lower our cultivation." w.a.n.g Tian Zhi said with a bit of hesitation.
"Also, if I make him explode and die, I"m afraid... "Not so good," Young Master Hua had always been careful to manage his own reputation, so he was naturally a bit fearful.
A serious expression appeared on Qing Xuan"s face. "Such a good opportunity, I hope you"ve made up your mind."
She paused for a moment and continued, "And before this, I remember the two of you saying that even if you don"t comprehend the Dao, you still can"t let Ye Feng succeed. Now, this is the critical moment."
Although she had only known the two of them, she already knew how much they hated Ye Zifeng to the bone.
When w.a.n.g Tian Zhi and Young Master Hua heard this, they looked at each other.
"... "Fine, I"ll do it. I"m afraid that he won"t succeed." w.a.n.g Tian Zhi gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Since Ye Feng stole our chance to comprehend the dao, then it"s time to make him pay the price," Young Master Hua"s eyes also revealed a trace of ruthlessness.
After the two of them had made up their minds, they took a step according to what Qing Xuan had said. They raised their sleeves and a bright light flashed. Streams of spirit energy flew out from their hands and converged at where Ye Feng was …
… ….
In the illusion world, in the Heaven Grade Pill Refining Room of the Xuan Wu Continent:
Just as the Nine Reincarnation Pill was about to be refined, a bright light suddenly burst out from the top of the furnace. The entire divine grade pill furnace was blown into small pieces. The huge explosive force had completely stunned the leaf tip.
Even if this illusion realm used the strength of a formation and created the ten million or even ten million percent of the explosive power of the Nine Reincarnation Pill, it was still enough to heavily injure him, who was now at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
If it weren"t for the fact that he could replenish the spiritual energy in the illusion and fill this black hole, he probably wouldn"t have been able to withstand the explosive force right now.
He frowned slightly. He could faintly feel that there were two small strands of spiritual energy that were mixed within, helping him to resist the erosion of the black hole.
Ye Zifeng slowly opened his eyes, as if he had been gone for a lifetime.
As for the spiritual energy absorbed by the illusion array, it was tormenting him non-stop. He raised his head and looked at the spatial ring on his hand. This was his way of distinguishing between illusion and reality.
"I never thought that I would be able to see some of the old scenes in the Tian Ji Palace of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. I wonder what kind of relationship this has with the enlightenment of the Dao itself." Ye Feng returned to his senses and sighed.
When he found out that he had returned from the illusion, he calmed himself down and scanned the surroundings. His expression suddenly changed.
w.a.n.g Tian Zhi and Young Master Hua"s faces were red from holding their breath, as if they had just been squeezed dry.
"What are all of you …"
From their palms, it could be seen that there was still a steady stream of volatile spiritual energy. It was gathering towards Ye Feng. From the looks of it, there was no way Ye Feng would be able to stop himself.
Ye Feng smiled meaningfully, and the corner of his mouth curved up. He finally understood that the two small waves of spiritual energy that he felt just now came from the two of them.
