Chapter 1214: Chapter 746: Falling Out with the Fox (Part 2)
Everything Gao Xuan saw was transformed by his own power.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor couldn’t actually see Gao Xuan’s illusion either. If it were a low-tier cultivator, he naturally could enter the opponent’s illusion, play a role, and guide the changes in the illusion.
Gao Xuan’s divine soul body was nearly perfect, and the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor didn’t have the courage to enter Gao Xuan’s illusion.
Any slight mistake would alert Gao Xuan to the abnormality, thereby awakening him from the illusion.
The illusion did not cause any substantial harm to Gao Xuan. The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor could only take advantage of Gao Xuan’s fall into the illusion to harness the power of Mengze Lake, creating an eternal Illusory Dream Immortal Realm for Gao Xuan.
Through the passage of time, it could gradually erode Gao Xuan’s divine soul, eventually killing him.
Of course, this requires patience.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Saint has lived for millions of years, lacking nothing but patience.
Once Gao Xuan’s divine soul is damaged enough, he can actively enter the Illusory Dream Immortal Realm to guide the illusion.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Saint even began to consider whether to keep Gao Xuan’s body. This body is truly perfect.
But he immediately pressed this thought down; it was too early to think about this. Gao Xuan was too powerful, and even the sword artifact in his hand was not easy to deal with.
As for Gao Xuan’s other killing moves, he hadn’t discerned them.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor invoked the endless water power of Mengze Lake, engraving layers upon layers of Gui Water Essence with runes, heavily enveloping Gao Xuan.
Seeing the Water Essence forming layers of transparent water walls, Gao Xuan inside showed no sign of movement.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor was overjoyed, thinking now the Illusory Dream Immortal Realm was fully formed, and Gao Xuan hadn’t awakened, he had no chance of waking...
Just as he thought of this, a sudden sense of alertness arose.
A water-colored sword blade had already pierced through the layers of water walls, directly stabbing in front of the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor.
This sword strike came suddenly; even with the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s abilities, he couldn’t avoid watching the sword blade thrust down.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor was thus slashed into two pieces by the sword blade, and as his body slowly split apart, the Illusory Dream Immortal Realm formed by the giant water ball also silently shattered.
Gao Xuan coldly laughed, "A mere illusion trying to trap me? Heaven-Confusing, you’re a bit too arrogant."
The split Heaven-Confusing strangely smiled, "You broke this layer of illusion, yet you don’t know the Immortal Realm is full of unusual illusions, especially between you and I..."
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s two-piece body transformed into colorful bubbles that shattered again.
The surrounding lake water rippled and instantly transformed into an endless starry sky.
Gao Xuan slightly frowned, the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor was indeed sinister and difficult to deal with; such a layered illusion wrapped around, as long as he exerted force, he would fall into it.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s transformation between reality and illusion was even more skillful; no matter how he killed, at the last moment, he could always transform his body into an illusion.
This transformation between reality and illusion was completely automatic. Even if the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor hadn’t realized it himself, he would automatically complete the transformation during mortal harm.
After slashing the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor twice, Gao Xuan understood his methods.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s Earth Immortal Law was the transformation between reality and illusion. As long as he was in Mengze Lake, no matter how he was killed, he couldn’t be killed.
However, there’s no undefeatable Earth Immortal in this world!
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s transformations were exquisite and mysterious, which Gao Xuan couldn’t see through, but he didn’t need to.
Following the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor in transformation itself is the wrong path. It’s like playing chess by someone else’s rules; you have no chance of winning.
Thinking of this, Gao Xuan drew his sword again to slash, causing the deep endless starry sky to shatter.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor stood not far in front of Gao Xuan, smiling at him, "Daoist Monarch, excellent swordsmanship, I admire it."
He couldn’t defeat Gao Xuan, but Gao Xuan couldn’t do anything to him either.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor had plenty of time to maneuver with Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan extended his left hand to the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor and said, "Catch my Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw, and I’ll turn and leave."
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor still wanted to jest, but Gao Xuan’s left hand had already transformed into a dark gold claw blade, suddenly grabbing forward.
The forces of Eternal Poison and the Celestial Dragon’s Ultimate Strength erupted simultaneously.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor instantly turned into a mass of black gas, and the surrounding endless lake water was dyed pitch black.
Regardless of where the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor was, Gao Xuan’s Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw had already pierced through the endless water power of Mengze Lake, forcibly extracting the deeply hidden Earth Immortal Law.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s Earth Immortal Law was spread across all directions of Mengze Lake; Gao Xuan’s Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw closed in, grasping out invisible threads of law deep within Mengze Lake.
These threads of law connected with the vast endless heaven and earth power of Mengze Lake. Gao Xuan relied on the poison and strength of the Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw to forcibly extract these threads of law.
"Beng beng beng..."
From the void came the resonance after the threads of law snapped, and the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor let out a terrified screech.
He had condensed for a million years to finally refine the Earth Immortal Law, now being forcibly snapped by Gao Xuan.
Finding the Earth Immortal Law isn’t difficult, but the difficult part is relying on brute force to demolish the Earth Immortal Law. This is Gao Xuan directly confronting the power of Mengze Lake.
No matter how exquisite the changes of the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor, encountering such brute force was futile.
The Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor knew he couldn’t contend with Gao Xuan, so he wanted to abandon Mengze Lake to escape.
"It’s too late to want to leave now."
Through countless Earth Immortal Laws, Gao Xuan had found the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor’s true form.
The dark gold claw blade swiftly expanded and grabbed toward the sky, seizing a giant white clam shell.
This white clam shell was several zhang in diameter, entirely crystal-like jade, hard as steel.
Through the semi-transparent white clam shell, an ugly white clam insect could be seen inside.
Under the pollution of the Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw’s poison, the white clam shell quickly turned pitch black.
Inside the clam shell, the clam insect screamed in horror, "Daoist Monarch, spare me, Daoist Monarch, spare me, this disciple is willing to pursue whoever Daoist Monarch wants, serve you faithfully..."
