Chapter 390 Empty Coffin (3800 monthly ticket for additional updates)
Ning Wan, who was in the pink mist, waved to Zhou Qing. Because of the mist, she looked a little psychedelic.
Zhou Qing's expression was slightly condensed. He did not enter the stone room, but directly used his hands to pull Ning Wan out.
Ning Wan did not struggle and came out smoothly.
"You broke the illusion? Are you okay now?"
Zhou Qing looked at Ning Wan, very cautiously, and said:
“Give me back the treasure I lent you to resist the illusion.”
Ning Wan was stunned for a moment. , "When did you borrow it..."
She had no words After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Qing with a smile and said:
"You are quite cautious. I did crack the illusion. I am awake now and have not been confused. As for the treasure, did you borrow it?" Did you give me an immortal weapon?”
Zhou Qing nodded seriously, "Yes."
Ning Yuan began to explain her experience to Zhou Qing in detail.
“The scene that appeared after I entered the mist, I knew in my heart that it was an illusion, but I couldn’t come out directly at the beginning.”
“This is a very clever illusion. The longer I stay in it, the more blurry my cognition becomes. I suspect that if I can’t decipher the illusion if I stay there for a long time, I may become completely lost and forget all the reality.”
It’s indeed brilliant, although. You know it is false, but it is difficult to return to the truth. This illusion is the most difficult to crack.
You know it is an illusion, but it is useless. Even this knowledge becomes an obstacle to breaking the illusion.
If the illusion cannot be broken in the end, it will naturally sink forever in the illusion and eventually die of mental exhaustion.
“Then how did you come out?”
“Phantom demon.” Ning Yuan said:
“Behind the illusion in the stone chamber is the phantom demon, a very special kind. Illusion creatures, after something creates an illusion, will condense into phantom monsters, and their presence will make the illusion more unbreakable.”
"To break the previous illusion, we need to find the phantom demon and defeat it."
"When the phantom demon dies, there will be a flaw in the illusion. That is the opportunity to break the illusion and return to reality."
“This is the first time I’ve heard of the phantom demon.” Zhou Qing nodded, “How can I find this phantom demon?”
“There is no specific method. The phantom demon must exist somewhere in the illusion. If you want to find it, you have to look at yourself.”
Ning Yuan said: “Because everyone experiences it every time. The illusion should be different, and the phantom demon has no specific image and may appear in any form."
"Then if you go in now, will you still fall into an illusion?"
"Yes, but I have cracked it once, and I can crack it a second time. This illusion will definitely not be able to trap me."
Zhou Qing said: "In this case, let's go in together and give it a try this time."
It's impossible for him not to go in. The road leading to the final tomb chamber, according to the puppet man, waits After they have explored all the areas and taken all the treasures, they will appear at the final location.
This is the fantasy stone chamber.
So he must have to break the illusion to get to the final tomb.
"Okay, I will wait for you after I break the illusion again. If you don't wake up for a long time, then I will take you out." Ning Yuan said:
"You have to pay attention. Try not to keep things in the illusion the same. Only when the illusion changes can you find problems more easily."
"Change means instability."
With her here, it can be regarded as a layer of protection.
The two of them stepped into the stone chamber together this time. The moment they entered, Zhou Qing came to a dense mountain forest.
As far as the eye can see, there are tall trees and a faint white mist.
"Find the phantom demon..."
Zhou Qing thought to himself and began to explore around the mountains and forests.
The illusion is very real, far superior to the illusion encountered in the first passage, and he cannot see any flaws.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Suddenly, there was the sound of thousands of beasts galloping, and then the roots of ancient trees in the distance broke, and smoke and dust flew everywhere.
When Zhou Qing saw it, he was suddenly startled. A herd of beasts was rushing towards him with a fierce momentum.
Zhou Qing turned around and left, unwilling to fight to the death with these beasts.
He knew it was an illusion, but a brilliant illusion would hurt people.
The world itself is illusory, but the harm it brings is real.
It is not worth it to fight a group of illusory beasts in a fantasy world.
Suddenly, flames floated behind Zhou Qing, and the wings of the phoenix condensed out. He fluttered his wings and flew in the air, looking at the herd of beasts galloping on the ground, his eyes twinkling.
Ning Wan said something, to make the illusion change as much as possible...
Zhou Qing breathed out lightly, yin and earth fire yin, yang and earth fire seal, yin and yang blend...< br>
Yin fire and yang fire poured down from the sky. The two were distinct at first, but when they fell into the herd of beasts below, they began to blend with each other.
"Boom!"
The sound of an extremely violent explosion sounded, and the sea of fire expanded violently, directly sweeping through the mountain forest, and it really had the potential to burn the mountains and boil the seas.
But it is extremely strange. Even if the beasts below are in the sea of fire, they are still galloping, and they are still fearless when being burned by the flames.
Some beasts were still running before being burned to death. Some beasts' bodies were burned first, but their harder limbs were still running, which looked very strange.
This is fantasy.
It can cause damage just like the real world, but it is also very unreasonable and illogical.
There were even some beasts, which were obviously beasts, but suddenly grew wings and carried fire on their bodies, and flew towards Zhou Qing.
Highlight a casual and free growth.
“Hoo!”
Under the input of Zhou Qing's soul power, the sea of fire became more and more turbulent, burning everything.
He also paid close attention to everything around him. All the unreasonable pictures that appeared in the illusion meant that the illusion was changing.
The more drastic it changes, the more unstable it will be.
"Where will it be..."
Zhou Qing was looking for the phantom demon. At a certain moment, his eyes suddenly focused and fell on a tree. "This tree?"
If he read it correctly, the tree was not in its current position just now. In other words, it has moved?
Found you!
Zhou Qing fluttered his wings and rushed over. Behind him, there was a sea of fire that came overwhelmingly. In the end, it was one step ahead of him and submerged the tree.
“Chirp!”
A strange cry sounded, and then the tree was seen "running away". The dense roots turned into centipedes and ran towards the distance.
Zhou Qing smiled, really happy.
The phantom demon itself does not have much combat effectiveness, unless there is someone behind the illusion to control it and lend strength to the phantom demon.
But there are no people inside this tomb.
“Bang!”
In the end, the phantom demon was overtaken by the endless sea of fire, first turned into dead wood, and finally turned into powder.
In the place where it died, the space was distorted, with pink mist looming.
Zhou Qing's yin and yang eyes were activated to the extreme, then he strode forward and rushed directly into the powder mist.
The world changed, and the stone chamber appeared in front of him again, and Ning Yuan was exploring the stone chamber.
This is the second time she has entered the illusion, so she has rich experience.
Sensing Zhou Qing's movement, Ning Wan turned around and asked, "Are you awake?"
"Well, the phantom demon is indeed what you said." Zhou Qing looked at Ning Wan.
"Have you discovered anything?"
Even if they have cracked the illusion that enveloped them, the stone chamber is still filled with pink mist.
This shows that the source of the illusion still exists.
"No." Ning Wan was slightly distressed, "There is nothing in the stone chamber. I don't know where the mist came from."
Zhou Qing thought for a while and made a suggestion, "Can you Try to take away these powder mist? "
"Maybe we can see something this way."
Ning Yuan's eyes lit up, "What a good idea."
Then she saw Ning Yuan taking out a jade pot. Once activated, the jade pot will emit huge suction power.
The powder mist in the entire stone chamber was quickly inhaled, but at the same time, new powder mist was also added in. This change was captured by the two people, and then they looked directly in one direction.
That is a stone wall directly opposite the passage where we came from, and the pink mist comes from there.
Zhou Qing walked over, covered the stone wall with his hands, and inspected it carefully. When he pressed on a certain place, there was a boom, and the stone wall suddenly separated to both sides, and a door appeared in front of him.
The top of the door is inlaid with a pink diamond-shaped stone, and the mist flows out of the stone.
“What is this? Do you recognize it?”
Ning Wan came over, looked at it carefully, and even took down the stone. After a while, she shook her head.
"I haven't seen it, but it should be some kind of phantom. My father never said anything about it."
"Well, if you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it. Put it away." Zhou Qing looked at the last door.
"Behind this, there should be the tomb owner's tomb."
The two of them reached out their hands at the same time and pushed towards the door.
Silently, it opens with just one push.
But behind the door, it was pitch black.
Ning Wan produced another bead, and its light immediately illuminated the entire tomb chamber.
The preparations are really good.
The scene behind the door was unobstructed, but it surprised Zhou Qing and others.
The back doesn't look like a tomb, but like a normal room in a normal building.
There are tables, chairs, and beds. The most puzzling thing is that a coffin is placed on the bed.
The two looked at each other, what kind of operation is this?
The corpse also recognizes the bed, right?
"The coffin is indeed open." Ning Yuan said softly.
Zhou Qing nodded, it was true, the coffin was open, corresponding to the content on the mural.
Of course, the last mural only painted the coffin, not the tomb chamber.
The two approached the coffin and looked inside. There was indeed no body.
According to the mural, the people inside had climbed out on their own.
There is nothing in the coffin, nothing.
Zhou Qing went to check other parts of the tomb, and sure enough, as the puppet man said, there was nothing.
I don’t know what materials those tables and chairs are made of, but they are quite well preserved.
"Zhou Qing! Come here!"
Ning Yuan suddenly shouted, and Zhou Qing hurried over.
“What happened? Did you find anything?”
Ning Wan's body was bent, and she pointed at the coffin board with a strange look on her face.
“Look.”
Zhou Qing also bent down and looked there, and was suddenly surprised.
On the coffin board, there are scratches that look like nails. They are messy and disorderly, with some depth and some shallowness. It can be seen that the person who made the scratches was not very sober at the time.
But among the messy carvings, there are also three crooked words that are very noticeable.
who I am?
Zhou Qing looked at Ning Wan and whispered:
"In other words, when the person in the coffin was still sleeping in the coffin, he often scratched it with his nails and wrote "Those three words?"
Ning Yuan nodded slightly, "That should be it."
Zhou Qing straightened up, and the scene felt so weird just thinking about it.
