Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 1407 Illusory Void, True Power

In the hazy, fog-filled airspace, a colossal creature appeared in Chen Chuan's mind.

It seems to be asleep at this moment, its body broad and thick, its rugged lines winding and stretching out like a dark, undulating mountain range lying there.

Within his mind, he could clearly perceive every detail of his body.

Its body was covered with thick scales, and between the scales were pale red, root-like veins that intertwined and slowly wriggled, as if they were living things that parasitized and coexisted with it.

A thick, blood-red, vapor-like aura emanated from its body, clearly revealing an extraordinary and vigorous life force beyond that of ordinary creatures.

This should be the Yuejialong mentioned in the received message.

Even among the mutated creatures of the fusion zone, this thing would be considered a medium-sized creature. It's truly remarkable that the old imperial family was able to bring it here in such a short time; they must have paid a considerable price.

In Chen Chuan's perception, the internal energy was very unstable. Although the person was asleep, the eyeballs under the eyelids were moving violently.

This is because huge gashes are being torn open inside its body. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the damage that Tie Rugan is bearing after being harmed by a spiritual impact.

In fact, once the size and vitality of a mutated creature grow to a certain extent, if its regenerative ability is also stronger, it is indeed difficult for ordinary fighters to cause it any harm.

But for him, this was just a matter of putting in a little more effort.

At that moment, the prismatic object suddenly transformed into a point of light and fell.

Compared to its enormous size, the prismatic object was barely a needle, yet it easily pierced through the thick outer layer of scales and entered its body.

The moment it reached the inside, the spiritual fire above suddenly surged, transforming into a large, brilliant flame, and propelled by an extremely powerful force, it traversed back and forth inside hundreds of times in an instant.

Suddenly, shimmering lights appeared beneath the surface of the Yueyalong's body, almost filling its entire body, and then the lights became brighter and brighter.

It remained lying there, seemingly oblivious to everything. At that moment, the prismatic object flew out of its body. In that instant, it seemed to finally realize something was wrong, and it suddenly opened its eyes and moved its body.

But with that one movement, the rays of light that had been quietly lurking beneath his skin suddenly burst forth, like a sun blooming in the darkness.

With a deafening roar, the colossal object shattered into countless fragments.

At that moment, everyone's eyes turned to that direction.

Mu Xiaoren suddenly looked up at the shattered fragments within the ball of light, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

He used the technique of possession to try to seize the consciousness of this creature for a moment. However, once his spirit entered the creature, it felt like entering a vast ocean, which was impossible to shake.

He had anticipated this situation, so he used a lost item he was carrying. This item could amplify his mental power instantly, but it came at a price; the more he amplified it, the higher the price.

Having come to participate in this battle, he was already prepared, so he used it without any hesitation.

As his spiritual power rose like a surging tide, it finally shook the spirit of this alien species in a fleeting moment after expanding to a certain extent.

At that very moment, the enormous white phantom reappeared, and with a single open of its massive head, it swallowed all the flesh and blood that the Yueya Dragon was trying to regenerate.

Chen Chuan saw this scene, and his eyes flickered slightly. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but he noticed something amiss.

Upon realizing this, his third eye twitched slightly. At that moment, the unusual figure became ethereal and indistinct.

His eyes flickered slightly. It seemed that everything that appeared after he entered the field was an illusion.

In fact, everything before that, including Yue Elong's creation, was so realistic that he almost fooled Yue Elong. However, in the end, Yue Elong still revealed a flaw.

It's about the final evolution of that anomalous situation.

The other party must also be very familiar with the anomaly, as the "diners" it evolved into are no different from the one seen before.

However, the other party did not expect that his understanding of anomalies was quite profound, especially since he knew that each anomaly was unique. The field of this one was slightly different from the original, so it could be said that it was similar in form but different in spirit, which is why it was exposed.

Besides creating the main body of the field, the illusory scene just now must have also incorporated the techniques of divine appearance. To be able to combine the two and use them to such an extent, this technique deserves to be called divine.

Moreover, he was certain that there was more to this than just deception, and that it was not simply a matter of deception for the sake of deception. Rather, it was highly likely that after successfully deceiving him, something more detrimental to him would unfold.

He raised his head and glanced at a certain spot in the distant sky. The one who set this up must be one of the people whose name he had just seen.

Thinking back to this, information about that person surfaced in my mind:

Mi Zhu Zi, a divine being, is 221 years old and a high-ranking official of the Xuanjiao sect.

Meanwhile, on a hidden airship in the rear, Mi Zhu Zi stood there holding a bamboo sword.

This time, the simulated Yueyalong was arguably his masterpiece. It utilized Zhuan Linghong's domain, combined with his own secret techniques, and even incorporated a wisp of aura from an ancient deity, creating a near-realistic scene. He felt a slight pang of regret. If Chen Chuan also believed it to be real, then Chen Chuan would find it difficult to effectively distinguish the secret techniques he used later. If he repeatedly made mistakes in his judgment, he would sink deeper and deeper, eventually falling into an illusory world and being controlled by him.

Unexpectedly, Chen Chuan was able to see through it. He could figure out that the problem must lie with that anomaly.

"In the end, we still missed a flaw."

He shook his head with some regret, but this regret stemmed from the fact that his secret technique still had flaws, rather than from his inability to restrain Chen Chuan.

Although he was a Taoist priest from the old dynasty, he agreed to come here because the old imperial family invited him to decipher some special rituals and anomalies. Therefore, dealing with rituals and anomalies was his main task.

That was just a momentary urge to try something new, and since it didn't work, he wouldn't bother with that anymore. Instead, he would focus on breaking the anomaly.

On the other side, Chen Chuan's mind raced. Although the surprise attack was unsuccessful this time, he had not come away empty-handed.

To put his mind at ease, the other party seemed to have revealed the true nature of the mutated creature.

Whether he understands or not is a completely different matter.

In this case……

He looked up and saw that Yuan Congye had not stopped his attack and was still coming towards him.

He stood still, pointing forward with his hand.

boom!
A vast, mysterious flame surged forward.

Xuan Kong Fire!
Yuan Congye was startled and immediately hid in the distance.

Xuan Kong Fire is one of the Five Refinements, originating from a higher level of power. Such flames are beyond his ability to withstand, let alone so many at once, which is beyond the scope of ordinary methods.

But he discovered that there was far too much Xuan Kong Fire this time. Could someone below the level of higher power really wield it? Reason told him it was impossible, but he still chose to stay away.

This time, Chen Chuan did indeed use only the illusory Xuan Kong Fire, but he knew his opponent wouldn't dare to gamble.

Taking advantage of this moment, he took a deep breath, and suddenly his aura surged. At that moment, everyone present felt a sense of horror.

But the aura quickly dissipated, making it almost seem like an illusion.

Chen Chuan certainly wouldn't do anything pointless. At that very moment, Jiang Linghuai and Mu Xiaoren, who were standing behind him, saw a figure who looked exactly like him appear beside him.

Chen Chuan first used the lost item that Gao Xinjian gave him to release a simulacrum of himself, and then he used the lost item that Da Shun gave him to imbue it with the power that had just erupted.

This means that from this moment until its dissipation, this simulacrum retains the power it displayed at that moment.

His power clone can be considered him, but his simulated body is not him, so he is naturally not restricted by the lost objects.

Although it could only exist for a few breaths, it was enough for him.

The avatar instantly flew towards Tie Rugan, who was shocked and hurriedly dodged, but it was no use; he was blasted away with a single punch.

The damage he caused naturally triggered a field-wide impact, and his emulated body instantly appeared at the other end of the resonance, where the entire field space was forcibly shattered by him.

Yue Elong appeared there, its simulated form expressionless, and its fist, wrapped in a huge platinum flame, slammed down. At that moment, it was as if the world was turned upside down, and the entire airspace was shattered!

not good!

Those who witnessed this scene paled in shock, but before they could react, a flash of light appeared, and the emulated body burst out from within, flying towards Tie Rugan.

The latter felt a chill run down his spine. Without the Yueyalong to share the damage, how could he possibly withstand the opponent's attack?
Before he could react, his body exploded with a loud bang.

Almost at the same moment, Yuan Zhao's body, which was standing on the other side, also exploded into countless fragments.

Not only them, but also the old imperial airships within sight exploded one after another.

Yuan Congye watched this scene with a solemn expression, and at this moment, he suddenly turned around and glanced back.

Chen Chuan stood there without moving, while the simulacrum returned to his side and then slowly dissipated. At this moment, only three breaths had passed since it was created.
