Chapter 486: Illusionary World (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
However, he did not know if the Youyue Empire was the previous dynasty of the Great Wu Empire, or if it was an even longer and distant dynasty. This made him think of the sun, moon, and stars he had faced previously.
“These three patterns might represent three different dynasties. If I had chosen the sun or the stars, then the world I would have entered would have been the other two dynasties. These three dynasties have long been annihilated in the long river of time. But now, they appear in this ancient ruin in this incomparably realistic state. This state is what’s called an illusion.”
Xiao Shi analyzed all of this through the item information. He had never heard of this illusory world before. This was the first time he had come into contact with the term “illusory.” However, through what he saw and felt, Xiao Shi felt that this illusionary world was a world between reality and illusion.
It was real, but it also had some illusory elements. What was certain was that once he died here, that would definitely be true death.
“Previously, when Barbarian Ghost told me about this ancient ruin, he did not mention that there was an illusionary world in the ancient ruin. I don’t think he knows that there are three different illusionary worlds in the ancient ruins.
“If I’m not wrong, this ancient ruin should be divided into the front and back. There are many rare treasures and powerful souls in the front. And the back is three different imaginary worlds. The two entrances to the ancient ruins correspond to the front and back.
“It’s like a front door, a back door. As Barbarian Ghost did not open the back entrance previously, the situation he understood was the situation when he entered the ancient ruins from the front. He thought that the back entrance would be like the one in front. Little did he know that the back entrance corresponded to three different imaginary worlds.”
Xiao Shi understood. If anyone else entered these three imaginary worlds,
Once he did not have the physical strength under Body Tempering,
That would definitely be a dead end.
After all, the current power system of the Great Wu Empire would not be of any use in these three ancient dynasties. These three ancient dynasties all had the power system of their respective dynasties. The only thing they shared was Body Tempering that spanned the past and present.
“The power system of the Youyue Dynasty should be the so-called Moon Seal.” Xiao Shi reached out and touched the crescent mark on his glabella. After he chose the Youyue Dynasty, this crescent moon mark condensed between his eyebrows. However, there was no power in this crescent mark. It was more like a symbol.
At the same time, be it the mayor of this town or the corpses of the townspeople he had just dealt with, there was also a crescent mark between their eyebrows. Clearly, the moon mark on his glabella was the source of all power.
There were different levels of this moon seal. For example, the Moon Sealing Dagger in his hand could seal a Moon Seal of the Black Moon.
“I need to find an opportunity to understand the level of the Moon Seal of the Youyue Dynasty.” Xiao Shi thought to himself. However, he also understood that he could not obtain information by asking the people here. Or rather, he had no way of conversing with the people of the Youyue Dynasty.
Although this kind of imaginary world seemed to have brought him back to an extremely distant ancient era and he had thrown himself into this ancient era, he could not come into contact with the people of this era.
His every move had fixed trajectories. It could not be changed! However, what excited Xiao Shi was that he could also drop items through killing here. Moreover, the items that were dropped were very special. As long as he could drop important items, he was confident that he could change his fate in this imaginary world.
In the latter half of the night, the roof of another house in town exploded. A black coffin flew out. Xiao Shi had already arrived before the coffin flew out.
Creak!
As the coffin lid fell, the corpse in the coffin immediately pounced out at an astonishing speed and charged at Xiao Shi. The moment the corpse pounced over, Xiao Shi had already entered the red tiger form. His body swayed, and turned into a blood light. It flickered and appeared behind the corpse.
When the corpse sensed it and turned around to attack, Xiao Shi had already raised the Moon Sealing Dagger in his hand. He directly threw the entire dagger and pierced the moon mark on the corpse’s glabella.
Swoosh!
The tip of the dagger stabbed into the moon mark. Xiao Shi clearly saw the moon mark on the other party’s glabella tremble. The power in his body immediately weakened. However, if he wanted to completely seal the moon mark, he had to stab the entire dagger into his glabella completely.
In terms of the advancement of the dagger blade, Xiao Shi realized that he needed to use his powerful physical strength to push it forward. If his physical strength was insufficient, even if he stabbed the dagger into the other party’s glabella, he would not be able to complete the seal. At most, he would be weakened to a certain extent.
Fortunately, with Xiao Shi’s physical strength, this was not difficult for him.
Pfft!
He pushed the Moon Sealing Dagger. It pierced the entire dagger into the moon mark between the other party’s eyebrows.
Crack!
The sound of a mirror shattering rang in Xiao Shi’s ears. He had used the Moon Sealing Dagger to seal the other party’s moon mark. The corpse’s body stiffened. The raised arm fell powerlessly. All the power in his body was lost and dissipated, and he no longer had any combat strength.
Xiao Shi kicked the corpse back into the coffin. He allowed the rules of this place to control his body and brought the coffin back to the house.
“So this is how it needs to be handled.” Xiao Shi was enlightened. When he entered the house where the other party lived, he realized that there were two coffins in the other party’s room. One big and one small. It looked like a family of three. However, there was nothing unusual about the other two coffins. “Without the Moon Sealing Dagger, it won’t be easy to seal and suppress him without killing him.” Xiao Shi sighed in his heart.
It would be fine if he could use the power of their era. However, since he could not use the power of this era, it was very difficult to seal and suppress it. After all, there was no way to seal and suppress the power of Body Tempering. He could only kill them with brute force!
“The crisis this town is facing shouldn’t be as simple as the townspeople losing control. There must be other bigger crises.” Since he was going to stay here for three days, the danger he would face in the next three days would definitely increase day by day. He could not kill these townspeople himself. However, if it was a crisis in other aspects, there should not be such restrictions. “That’s good too. If I can’t kill anyone, I won’t be able to continue dropping items.”
Xiao Shi was looking forward to the items that would drop here. The items dropped here would be the items of this dynasty. Perhaps there were some items that could bring him a huge improvement.
The sky gradually brightened. Apart from the two townspeople who lost control, nothing else happened that night. As dawn broke, the entire town instantly became lively.
Xiao Shi came to the door of the courtyard and looked out. He realized that the townspeople in town were walking out of their houses one after another. They were not the kind of corpses Xiao Shi had seen at night, but normal. He even saw the townsman he had personally sealed last night. The other party was also not a corpse. Instead, it had the appearance of a normal living human.
The only difference from the others was that the moon mark on his glabella was sealed, causing him to appear very weak.
Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes at this. “This town… is strange!” He realized that the reason why the town was quiet at night and could not see half a person was because after night, these townspeople would enter the coffins and turn into corpses.
By daylight, they would be back to normal..
