Chapter 8: Illusion

Zimeng is not a fuel-efficient lamp either, so when he let go and stepped back, he was three meters away from him.No injuries.

Pusheng also quickly turned around and dodged a few meters to face him, stopped, stood in a safe position, touched his neck with his hand, looked at the blood in his hand expressionlessly, and then said with a smile: " Oh, Zimeng, you are so soft-hearted. Is it because you have degenerated after not fighting for a long time? You didn’t start at all. Such a great opportunity, if it was me, I would just break someone’s neck. With such a shallow wound, if If others see it, they will definitely laugh at me for bullying the weak."

"Hmph. Shameless thing. Next time you will be speechless." Zimeng said.

"Hey. Do you want to try? I don't think your skills are very good. Could it be my illusion? It can't be my illusion. Haha."

Zi Meng didn't wait for him to finish, and rushed up a few steps, but instead of being close to her body, she threw out a few small knives as an aid.Pusheng dodged it easily, then rushed up and fought in the air for several rounds.

Gao Xia didn't see their movements clearly at all, only felt gusts of wind running around, blowing past him.After a while, both Zimeng and Pusheng returned to their original positions, but both were slightly injured.Zimeng was cut on the wrist, his clothes were cut off, and his leg was also cut. The blood stained the cloth around the wound.In contrast, Pusheng was more seriously injured. He was stabbed twice on the face and once on the chest, and there were too many small knife marks on his arms to count.

"Haha. I didn't expect you to be very good. You can hang in such a colorful way." Pusheng touched his chest, lifted the torn clothes to look at the wound and said.

"It's really embarrassing for me to draw a sword even against you. I'm getting older and my physical strength is failing. I have to waste so much time with such a lowly thing like you. It seems that I have to practice hard. Now, with such good conditions today, let me test the sword with you first." Zimeng looked at his long sword and said absently.

"Hahahaha..." Pusheng seemed to have heard some big joke, and laughed out of shape. He laughed for a full 30 seconds before suddenly stopping.Showing fierce eyes, he said: "Don't get complacent too early, I just warmed up just now, it's official, and I'm just starting now." He didn't see clearly, and he didn't even know which direction he was running in. He just felt a strong wind passing by him, and then Zimeng jumped up, drew out his sword and fought wildly.

Gao Xia only saw two black shadows flashing back and forth, swinging the sword very quickly in the air.Gao Xia stood by the side, looking anxious for a while, but he really couldn't help at all.If you rush up, you can only be hacked to death by random swords or kicked away by Zimeng.Gao Xia thought.

Zimeng dodged Pusheng's attack, jumped into the air, turned 180 degrees, kicked Pusheng on the back, kicked him a few meters, and hit a tree.Pusheng turned around quickly, looked at Zimeng who was rushing towards him, stepped on the tree trunk and ran up, and then quickly pointed his sword at Zimeng under the tree, how could Zimeng fall for his little trick, Raising the sword in his hand and swiping it, he deflected Pusheng in the direction.

Pusheng kicked again, raised a little height, then jumped down into the air, and hid in the darkness.Zimeng turned around in a circle, but didn't see any shadow of him.Cautiously took a few steps forward, looked around cautiously, let go of the four sense organs, and noticed the small movements around.

Gao Xia also looked around, but he didn't see it, he was so useless, he couldn't even keep an eye on someone.Zimeng moved towards him lightly, and stopped after walking a few steps.Gao Xia looked at her in surprise, and then slowly Pusheng's eerie smile that hadn't changed for a hundred years appeared behind him.Facing her neck was his big knife, thin and very sharp, shining coldly under the street lamp.

Zimeng turned his head slightly, Pusheng put the knife closer, and said softly with a smile: "Don't move around, I don't listen to my hands recently, and I will accidentally shake them." He held the knife His hand exerted force, and the blood flowed down his white neck.

"How does it feel? The feeling of being pierced by my sword? Do you feel that you are useless?" Pusheng leaned closer to Zimeng's ear and said.

"You want to kill me just with your broken iron? I think you think too well." Zimeng said expressionlessly: "I don't think you have this ability, you didn't even pay attention to yours." under your feet." Zimeng smiled lightly.Then two iron chains drilled out of the soil like snakes, and quickly climbed up Pusheng's body, before he had time to react, they tied him tightly, even the fingers holding the knife All fixed.

Zimeng took two steps back gently, and took his neck back from under the knife.Looking back at Pusheng who was fixed there, he snorted and said, "How do you feel? Do you want me to untie it for you?"

Pusheng rolled his flexible black eyes and said unconvinced: "I knew you were not that simple. I just paid attention to your left hand, but I didn't pay attention to the ground at all."

"Yo, you know how to keep an eye on my left hand. Tsk tsk... It should be praised. I have been hiding in the sleeve of my left hand. You are right, but you don't know when I let it out." Zimeng Laughed lightly.Stare at him.

"When? I've been staring at you all the time. I know you didn't use all your strength, so you'll definitely keep something. But I really don't know why you let it out." Pusheng admitted generously, and was caught Don't be in a hurry, don't be irritable.

"Actually, just now. The moment you put the knife on my neck, I took advantage of your carelessness and released the bundle. In fact, I let you catch it just to make you proud and relax when you thought you had it. Be vigilant, let me take advantage of it." Zimeng explained.

"That's true. I really underestimated you. You are really not simple. You even guessed my next step. I'm curious how you guessed it?"

"It's actually very simple. My sixth sense. Judging from the time I have played against you, I found that you are never impulsive and rarely take the initiative to attack. I think it's definitely not that you dare not, but that you don't have the full will." Be sure. In this case, I must show two of my shortcomings, or create a few shortcomings, so that you feel that you are fully sure, and then take the initiative to attack." Zimeng still remained expressionless, serious Stare at his sword.

"Oh oh oh. It's not easy. It can be said that you are a bit scary. It's really interesting to be your opponent. It's much more interesting than those low-level black beams. But I'm sorry, I am the most annoying person. This is the kind of person you are, you are a man with a deadpan face, a dead face, but a thoughtful mind, who likes to play tricks in secret!" Pusheng's face suddenly changed, and his whole person became serious. Just like the old smiling face.The iron chain snapped off after he roared loudly, and he broke free immediately, shouting: "Do you think this little iron chain can trap me? Do you really think too much?" Too much!" As he spoke, he slashed over with a knife.

Zimeng watched calmly as he broke free and rushed towards him, then tapped his feet and leaped lightly into the air.It was supposed to fall to the side to avoid his attack, but Zimeng didn't land on the ground, but during the time when he was in the air, the scene around him suddenly changed.Basically, in the blink of an eye, Zimeng suddenly felt that he was stepping on the clouds, without any sense of reality at all.The wall-like trees on both sides and the dim streetlights suddenly changed the scene. Zimeng looked as if someone quickly opened the background and changed a curtain for it.

What appeared in front of Zimeng was a dreamlike world.Standing in the air, he could see large and large pieces of white clouds at a glance. Above his head was the blue sky.Zimeng was amazed. Looking at this unreal beautiful world, he couldn't help but praise it in his heart.Zimeng looked at his feet, and there were also clouds like milk under his feet. He took two steps carefully, as if his feet were a piece of transparent glass, and if he was not careful, he would step on the air and make him fall.

The clouds under his feet moved in the direction Zimeng walked, spread out, and circled.Zimeng was in a daze at this pure sight that caused his eyes to hurt when he took a second look. He was not sure of his position, and even forgot that he was still fighting just now.But even if the scenery is so beautiful that it can confuse people's minds, Zimeng wakes up immediately after being absent-minded for two seconds.He quickly looked around, and his eyes returned to their original expression.He knew he had been tricked and had entered Pusheng's illusion.

Zimeng looked around, then silently spoke a bunch of strange languages, but the scene in front of him still remained unchanged.Immediately, Zimeng closed his eyes and silently spoke a long series of other strange languages, but there was still no change, and those vivid clouds were still moving forward at their own speed.

"It's useless. Your spell can't destroy my spell. My spell is not an ordinary illusion. It's at a completely different level from that stupid human being playing with Gao Xia. The only one who knows how to undo this spell is my master." , it’s just me.” Pusheng’s voice sounded.Then Zimeng saw Pusheng walking towards him.

Zimeng swung his sword and stabbed at him, the sword passed through his body, and then came out completely.This person who is exactly like Pusheng is not himself, but an illusion created by him.This made Zimeng feel a little tricky, and uneasy feelings slowly surged up.

Even though Zimeng has seen countless illusions and defeated many illusionists, so far there is no illusionist who can hurt him.But it was the first time I encountered such a real illusion like now.If you don't do it well, and you can't find where the broken point is, you may never be able to perform this technique, and you can only be manipulated in other people's space. If he intends to kill you, it's only a matter of time.

Zimeng frowned, thinking seriously: Now his solution to the curse is useless to him, he must find another way.There is always a way, but it takes time.
