Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

The dawn illuminated the dark blue sky, and Shen Bai and An Li waited all night, but still no one came out of the island in the lake.

After the two prodigies from Imperial Capital High School entered the island in the lake, they vanished without a trace, never to return.

At this moment, the two men's gazes toward the island in the lake were filled with apprehension.

"Let's go, waiting any longer won't change anything!"

Shen Bai decided not to wait any longer. Such a dangerous cave was not something he, an eighth-level martial artist, could easily explore.

Two nights and a day are enough time for even a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining to emerge, let alone myself.

Let's go!

An Li also knew very well that there was no use doing anything at this point; she could only wait for the ruins to disappear.

The two packed up their tent and were about to leave when the mist on the island in the lake suddenly spread out. Their expressions changed drastically. Just as they were about to step onto their flying skateboards to escape, they discovered that the flying skateboards couldn't fly at all.

"No-fly zone!"

Shen Bai was shocked and grabbed An Li's hand to run outside. Before they had taken two steps, the mist had already swallowed them up, and then they disappeared from the shore.

……

The moment they entered the mist, Shen Bai held his breath. Apart from his left hand, he could still feel An Li being held by his hand. The two stood almost face to face but could not see each other.

"An Li? An Li?"

Shen Bai shook his left hand, but heard no response from An Li. He gently pulled her, but found her standing there blankly, motionless.

"Illusion Array!"

Shen Bai immediately understood why so many people hadn't been able to leave after entering the courtyard; it turned out that the cave owner had set up an illusion array on this island in the lake.

So, all the teachers and students who entered earlier should be safe; they were just trapped by the illusion array.

If nothing unexpected happens, the teachers and students will all be safe and sound after the secret realm disappears, although they will likely be somewhat weak after not eating or drinking for several days.

It was obvious that An Li had also fallen into the illusion of the illusion array.

"Why am I okay?"

Shen Bai looked at himself hesitantly and found that although the mist was also surrounding him, it seemed to be blocked by a layer of red light.

Red light?

Shen Bai opened his backpack and, sure enough, saw the Blood Spirit Jade emitting a faint red light, resisting the erosion of the mist.

Can the Blood Spirit Jade resist illusion arrays?

This point was not mentioned in Shen Bai's memory of the knowledge about spirit mines.

"Does this mean I can move freely within this illusion array?"

Shen Bai's heart suddenly began to pound!

He was afraid to come in because Pan Li, that perverted killer, had entered the courtyard. Then, for a day and two nights, no one was able to leave the courtyard, which made him develop a fear of it.

Now that he has discovered that the greatest danger inside comes from the illusion array, his previously suppressed impulse has been unleashed once again.

"Should we go all in?"

After thinking for a moment, Shen Bai decided to go for it!

Beat a fight, bike change bike!

After leading An Li outside for a while, they indeed emerged from the illusion array, and An Li's eyes regained their clarity at that moment.

"What happened?"

An Li looked around blankly, only to see that the two of them had already walked to a place nearly a hundred meters from the shore, and the mist over the island in the lake had stopped expanding.

Shen Bai took out the Blood Spirit Jade and explained the situation to An Li, then said, "It seems the mist over this island in the lake spreads a bit every now and then. Now that I have this Blood Spirit Jade to help, I should be able to bring the teachers out. Stay away and wait for me outside!"

Shen Bai's decision to rescue An Li first was made after careful consideration. In case he got trapped in the courtyard, at least there would be someone outside to help him and spread the news that there was a huge illusion array here.

Secondly, An Li is trustworthy.

Their friendship wasn't just a simple classmate and employee relationship; it was forged through sports.

"Then you must be careful!"

An Li was somewhat worried, but she did not stop him, because this was an opportunity for Shen Bai.

The fog stopped expanding, and the no-fly zone was lifted. Shen Bai stepped onto his flying skateboard, tucked the Blood Spirit Jade into his pocket, and flew towards the island in the lake.

……

Upon arriving at the courtyard gate and stepping inside, Shen Bai immediately saw a huge courtyard with artificial hills and flowing water, and clusters of flowers, creating a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

If anything spoiled this beautiful scene, it was the hundreds of students from Jiangbei No. 1 High School, standing like puppets in various corners of the courtyard. They were all motionless, their faces displaying expressions of joy, sorrow, pain, or gloom, clearly trapped in an illusion, unable to extricate themselves.

The most ridiculous thing was Qian Kai and his friends. At this moment, Qian Kai was hugging a big tree and rubbing against it with all his might, while muttering to himself. Jia Feng was gently stroking a flower in the flower bed, and Wang Wei had jumped into the pond and was chasing after something.

Shen Bai didn't go to rescue them, but instead took a picture of them with the photo stone to commemorate this wonderful scene.

He continued walking forward, and the deeper he went into the courtyard, the more advanced the students' cultivation became. First, there were students from Jiangbei No. 1 High School at the Acquired Realm, then students from Didu No. 1 High School at the Innate Realm, and then Chu Chen and Ye Qianqian at the first level of the Qi Refining Realm.

Looking at the top student from the capital's No. 1 High School who had just been shouting that he would rescue everyone, Shen Bai shook his head, too lazy to pay him any attention.

Unfortunately, I don't have a storage ring, otherwise I would have taken all the valuables off him.

Yes, it's taking, not stealing.

After walking a little further, they saw Yang Xiao and other teachers, as well as several Night Fiends struggling with their expressions.

As late-stage Qi Refining experts, their resistance to illusion arrays was naturally higher than that of ordinary students, but they still fell victim to this illusion array.

Shen Bai did not rush to rescue them, but continued to walk further in.

There were two side rooms on each side. Upon entering, they found the alchemy room, the equipment room, the meditation room, and the kitchen. There was nothing special about them; they couldn't even find an alchemy furnace. Shen Bai had no choice but to leave and turn to walk towards the main hall.

At the main entrance of the main room, Pan Li, Zhuang Songnian, and Qi Sisi stood side by side.

Shen Bai first approached Zhuang Songnian and tugged at him, only to find that Zhuang Songnian did not react at all, and drool was still dripping from the corner of his mouth.

He walked over to Qi Sisi and whispered in her ear a few times. Qi Sisi had a resentful expression on her face and showed no signs of waking up from the illusion.

Shen Bai understood that this illusion array was just as powerful and fierce as a master at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Looking at the deranged killer in front of him, Shen Bai wanted to kill him, but he was afraid that the other party might have some kind of protective magic artifact. If he was attacked, the magic artifact would not only protect its master but also wake the other party from the illusion, which would be a big problem.

Just as Shen Bai was about to bypass Pan Li and enter the main room, his gaze inadvertently fell on the other man's fingers.

There is an old-fashioned ring there.

Storage ring!

Shen Bai's heart suddenly began to pound.

I feel bad taking my classmate's things, but it's not too much to ask me to criticize your things, you perverted killer.

Shen Bai's hand naturally landed on the ring.

While keeping an eye on Pan Li's expression, Shen Bai gently removed the ring from his hand. Pan Li remained unmoved even after the ring was completely removed, which greatly pleased Shen Bai.

Make big!

After stuffing the storage ring into his pocket, Shen Bai thought for a moment and felt that something was still missing, so he reached out and pulled down Pan Li's pants.
