Qingfeng, Xue Lin, Mengyao Xu, and the others walked into the depth of the desert nonstop, and they had no clue that they had all those people following behind them.
Xie Ming, the Devil Monarch, the Demon Monarch, and the others all followed behind Qingfeng because they noticed something odd about him. They wanted to attack him at a critical point and steal all of his dharma treasures.
At the same time, they had another thought, which was to get Qingfeng to lead in the front and to block dangers. They had seen Qingfeng fight before and knew how powerful he was.
Within this golden desert, there were plenty of hidden dangers. Not only the scorpions Qingfeng just killed, but there were other poisonous bugs such as centipedes and so on.
These poisonous bugs all poured out from way below the desert and attacked Qingfeng and the others.
Qingfeng walked in the very front and used his strengthened gravity technique, as he activated the Flame Realm to form red flames several thousand feet big. First these poisonous bugs were sucked against the ground and immobilized, and then they were burned into ashes with fierce flames, with their ashes finally disappearing into the air.
A long line followed behind Qingfeng of several hundred self-cultivators.
These self-cultivators all knew of the danger of this desert, and they dared not to go their separate ways, so they followed tightly behind Qingfeng. They knew that the only way to walk out of this desert was to follow behind Qingfeng.
For these self-cultivators, Qingfeng didn’t chase them away, as he let them follow behind him without a care.
Qingfeng and the others walked for a fairly long time, but still hadn’t walked out of the desert. They looked over and saw rounds of yellow sand that flew up before them, in the forms of hurricanes everywhere.
These hurricanes blew up the sand, formed into sandstorms, and tore through the sky in large cracks. Even the ground cracked as well.
All the self-cultivators grew pale, as they all activated their internal vital essence to block these sandstorms.
However, the self-cultivators could only block smaller hurricanes, while larger sand hurricanes of roughly several thousand meters wiped out everything. The sun was blocked as the sky tore, and ground cracked. A crack several thousand meters big appeared in the sky, and they couldn’t stop it at all.
It was time for Qingfeng to unleash his wrath, as he swung his fist to unleash a Strangle Hell Fist of seven thousand feet big. It appeared in the sky with invincible energy, immediately shattered that massive sandstorm, and then he led everyone forward.
After a moment, Qingfeng frowned because he noticed that he was walking around in the same spot, and they never walked out of that area.
Xue Lin walked to Qingfeng’s side and frowned, because she also noticed something odd in this desert.
They clearly walked for quite a while, and given the speed, they should have already walked out of this desert, but as they looked out, they were still surrounded by yellow sand.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” Xue Lin pouted her red lips and said quietly.
Qingfeng’s face grew concerned as he said, “If I’m guessing correctly, then we must be inside an illusory realm right now.”
Xue became shocked as she said, “Do you mean that everything we just encountered were all fake? Including those sandstorms and poisonous bugs?”
Qingfeng nodded and said, “That’s right, those things might seem like they’re real with flesh and blood, but they must be illusionary. Our eyes have blinded us all, and we can only crack the illusory state with our hearts. I have to say this is the most powerful environmental array I’ve met so far.”
Qingfeng waved his hands and said to those behind him, “Everyone stop and close your eyes. Kneel on the sand and use your spirit energy and soul to closely look around. Don’t make a noise no matter what.”
Everyone did what Qingfeng said even though they didn’t understand what Qingfeng meant. They all kneeled down in a hurry, activated their spirit energy to release their spirit energy and observed all around.
In the next moment, some felt a difference when they settled their hearts and discovered that there wasn’t any hurricane around them, or were there any poisonous bugs. There was only a desert without an end, and they only went around the desert in a full circle and walked around in a curve instead of a straight line.
Since they walked in a curve, they won’t be able to walk out of this desert no matter how long and how far they walked.
Everyone was shocked when they found out that they had been trapped inside the illusory formation all this time.
Luckily Qingfeng had noticed this and warned them, or else they would have died of exhaustion due to how much vital essence they wasted. Then, they could only end up as a set of bones.
Qingfeng closely looked at the desert before them with his eyes closed and unleashed spirit energy, as he felt the environment all around him.
All the sandstorms and poisonous bugs disappeared around him, with only a layer of white light remaining. This light was a protective shield, or better known as an illusory array.
It surrounded Qingfeng and the group, trapping them inside no matter how they walked. They were still inside the illusory shield, and couldn’t get out at all.
Qingfeng lightly smiled as shock appeared in his eyes, and he said, “Interesting, it’s an eighth level Monarch grade illusory realm. Not bad, but sadly you’ve met me.”
Qingfeng activated the Clairvoyance ability with his right eye to release golden light and saw through everything as he closely inspected the illusory shield before him. He soon discovered the flaws on the illusory shield.
There were many golden lights around this shield, and the golden light points were as small as needle points. They couldn’t be seen unless one looked very closely, and they represented the flaws of the illusory shield array.
Qingfeng moved his intent and took out the Sky-Breaking Halberd. He suddenly transferred his vital essence into it, waved his Sky-Breaking Halberd, and pierced ten or so times heavily onto those golden spots of the illusory light, immediately shattering those spots.
Then, Qingfeng’s Sky-Breaking Halberd forcefully churned upwards to form a rush of wild energy that suddenly shattered the illusory array into countless white spots, letting the shards disappeard into the void.
Then all the sandstorm and poisonous bugs around Qingfeng and the others disappeared, as only an endless desert appeared before them.
Xue Lin and the others looked at this in shock, as it was beyond their beliefs.
If it wasn’t for Qingfeng, they wouldn’t have been able to crack the illusory realm.
