Chapter 1739: Soldiers Come, Generals Block

They walked fast, but when they arrived at the square, Xiao Wencheng had already finished the mobilization, and the last few words were still echoing on the mountain peak.

More than three hundred people gathered in the square. Judging by their clothes and hair crowns, they should all be Illusion Sect disciples, holding spears and halberds, the most common being the trident.

In addition, there were more than a hundred demon beasts and spiritual birds, all landing on the edge of the square. Most of them were rare to see for ordinary people, and even He He Lingchuan had only seen their figures in picture books, such as a red-bottomed, blue-faced, red-nosed mountain demon with another face on the back of its head, also richly colored, called a Face-Patterned Demon.

The Ghost Ape saw it and couldn't help but touch the back of its head; this guy was a little similar to it.

The Face-Patterned Demon noticed its gaze and glared fiercely. Dong Rui patted his demon puppet and told it not to stare at others, which was impolite.

In fact, when he prepared the Ghost Ape, he also incorporated a little bit of the Face-Patterned Demon's characteristics, naturally not sampled from this one.

However, the most eye-catching thing was not these demon beasts, but the large mirror standing in the center of the square—

After the Haoyuan Golden Mirror disappeared from the quiet room, it appeared here, and its volume had expanded by at least two times, far exceeding the moon-shaped arch of the garden.

He He Lingchuan saw from the mirror that Bai Bai Ziqi's fleet had successfully landed on the stone beach on the shore of the Inverted Lake.

This was half an hour earlier than Xiao Wencheng's plan.

So the Illusion Sect's top priority now was to prevent the Tiangong people from expanding to Silver Pearl Island.

Xiao Wencheng stepped aside a few steps and pointed to the mirror surface: "Go, let these Heavenly Demons see the might of my Illusion Sect!"

As soon as the words fell, Elders Jin and Xu walked into the mirror! The mirror surface was like water, and it rippled after the two of them passed through.

With them taking the lead, the Illusion Sect disciples in the square also followed closely, walking quickly into the mirror.

The Soul-Seizing Mirror said "ouch": "One step to the destination, ignoring distance! Truly amazing!"

He He Lingchuan knocked on this useless thing; why did it admire other mirrors so much? But the Haoyuan Golden Mirror was indeed powerful, and in less than half a quarter of an hour, the square was empty, and all the Illusion Sect disciples who were there had entered the mirror.

Judging from the previous record of the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, these people had likely arrived at the shore of the Inverted Lake.

He He Lingchuan also looked on with envy. Wasn't this the "Anywhere Door" function? Through this mirror, the Illusion Sect disciples could arrive at a designated location at any time, and their mobility was too strong.

This was the landlord's advantage, but it seemed to only be effective within the small world controlled by Qianhuan.

He also paid special attention to the turquoise on the top of the mirror and found that the color hadn't changed much.

It seems that spatial teleportation is the basic function of this mirror, and although it teleported several hundred people at once, the energy consumed wasn't much.

Treasure, truly a good treasure.

If he had this treasure, could he also open an "Anywhere Door" on his own turf in the future?

The Jinghong Ferry in the Spirit Void Upper City was also a long-distance teleportation array, but its position was fixed and couldn't be moved at will like the Haoyuan Golden Mirror.

"Where are the people?" Dong Rui looked at the quiet lake shore in the distance and asked, "Why can't I see them?"

"They are here." Xiao Wencheng stretched out his index and middle fingers, drew two circles in front of the mirror, and the local picture of the Haoyuan Golden Mirror suddenly zoomed in and focused.

So He He Lingchuan and the others clearly saw that on the northwest corner of the Tiangong camp's lake shore, there were hundreds of Yaksha gathered.

They were also hideous, almost no two looked the same, but they were silent and motionless, completely blocked by the dense long grass nearly two zhang high. The Haoyuan Golden Mirror specially chose a bird's-eye view; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to see their figures from other angles at all.

A few more Yaksha arrived one after another, and the leader turned around and made a few gestures to the companions behind.

These gestures could only be made by humans.

Dong Rui gave an "eh" and pointed to the leader Yaksha: "Wait, this, this Hun Tian Fork..."

The Hun Tian Fork held by this Yaksha was the one Elder Jin was holding just now; the style was a bit unique, the two blade tips were curved and branched like snake tongues, and the tips were blue, he still remembered it.

Now this Hun Tian Fork was in the hands of the Yaksha; could it be? "Could this be Elder Jin?!"

Xiao Wencheng nodded: "Correct."

He pointed to the Yaksha group in the mirror: "This is the team we sent into the mirror earlier."

The Haoyuan Golden Mirror didn't just have the ability to teleport. When they passed through the mirror, they also changed their appearance! That's right, this is the Illusion Sect under the Mirage Immortal, and this is the illusion created by Qianhuan; it would be strange if they didn't have a few tricks to change their appearance.

Zhu Zhu Xiuer looked at itself, curious: "If I pass through the mirror, can I also change into a different outfit?"

"Yes." Xiao Wencheng didn't look back, "This illusion only changes your appearance, changes how you look in others' eyes, not your true form; even if you are an elephant, after passing through the mirror, you can possess a human form."

Oh? Interesting. Zhu Zhu Xiuer moved its front claws; it must try this if it had the chance.

For thousands of years, it had always been in this style, and it was tired of looking at it itself.

Dong Rui had been staring at the mirror: "They went into the water?"

The mirror clearly showed that Elder Jin's team seemed to have gathered and started moving forward, until all the "Yaksha" sank into the lake water, and the lake shore was empty again.

Everyone looked at the lake water and then at the Tiangong camp on the shore, and they didn't need Xiao Wencheng to explain to understand what Elder Jin and the others wanted to do.

The mirror perspective switched back to the Tiangong camp, and Dong Rui waited for a long time, couldn't help but laugh: "No, I really can't tell which are real Yaksha and which are Illusion Sect people."

The so-called "fish eyes mixed with pearls," this group of living people mixed into the Yaksha army and launched a fierce attack on the Tiangong team!

True and false, and very difficult to distinguish.

But their single combat power was far superior to ordinary Yaksha, often catching the Tiangong soldiers off guard and causing great destruction.

And the Illusion Sect disciples were also illuminated by the Eye of Truth, feeling a chill in their hearts, because after they faded their disguises, they stood in the Yaksha army with plain faces! In front, behind, left, right, and even above, they were all hideous Yaksha water monsters! The water monsters they had been chasing and killing for many years.

Even some people could hear the "hehe" sound from the Yaksha's throats, at most three feet away from them.

Don't fight, don't fight, absolutely don't fight; their main target this time was the Tiangong team, not these Yaksha!

Strange to say, the Yaksha saw the humans in their own team and were just slightly stunned, as if they couldn't understand what was going on, but immediately lost interest in them and turned to continue attacking the Tiangong camp.

They seemed to only have a deep hatred for the Tiangong, but were indifferent to the Illusion Sect disciples who had been chasing and killing them for over a hundred years.

The Illusion Sect disciples finally let out a long sigh, wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, and continued to fight.

This feeling was too strange, fighting side-by-side with their former mortal enemies.

Not to mention anything else, the army's primordial power has a natural suppressive effect on monsters like Yakshas, which possess human souls and water-based bodies.

Bai Bai Ziqi and his guards didn't, but the elites he brought were like soldiers, perhaps from certain countries, and should be able to gather some yuanli.

"Just by relying on that little bit of pitiful yuanli, they want to see through the divine ability of the Haoyuan Golden Mirror?" Xiao Wencheng said lightly, "Unless the Between Beijia army arrives in person!"

On the surface, they are all called "yuanli," but the yuanli of the Yao Nation and the yuanli of Luodian cannot be compared with Between Beijia; taking them to see through ordinary illusions might be more than enough, but this is the Inverted Sea, and the Haoyuan Golden Mirror is the supreme treasure of the ancient Mirage Immortal!

He He Lingchuan suddenly said: "The team sent by your sect seems to have many disciples from Silver Pearl Island. They and the Yaksha are irreconcilable; why would they be willing to disguise themselves as Yaksha and go into the sea?"

Lu Jing, who took them to Stone Dragon Peak, was from Silver Pearl Island. Over the past hundred years, I don't know how many disciples like him, who were born as commoners and were picked into the sect when they were young to learn immortal arts, there have been.

And the Yaksha in the lake would come out to harass and hunt commoners every once in a while; these sect disciples fight side-by-side with them, wouldn't they have grudges in their hearts?

Xiao Wencheng waved his hand: "They often did this in the past, disguising themselves as Yaksha, sneaking into the Yaksha army to destroy and slaughter. It's just that the situation is special this time, and their target has changed from Yaksha to the Tiangong team."

These reasons all make sense.

He He Lingchuan kept an eye on the battle scene displayed by the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, and asked Xiao Wencheng: "I heard that over the past few thousand years, the Tiangong has also invaded many cave dwellings and killed many Immortals."

He He Lingchuan raised the question he had long had, "I have seen the Tiangong's beasts, and I have also seen the so-called 'divine descent' of the Heavenly Demons, especially the limited strength of the latter's skin, which limits the power of the Heavenly God's avatar. They are more than enough to deal with practitioners, but how could they cause fatal damage to Immortals?"

Before meeting these living Immortals of the Illusion Sect, no one could give him an answer. Zhu Zhu Xiuer, who was by his side, died in the ancient war and didn't know what happened later.

When rolling past the enemy, the golden sphere slows down, allowing them to fire arrows or thrust spears and halberds; these attacks pass through the surface of the golden sphere without obstruction to strike the enemy.

True Person Qianhuan's status and ability are placed there, and he can create a vast spiritual energy gathering array for himself, sucking away half of the Shining Gold Plain's spiritual energy for his own use. How could ordinary Immortals have this ability? Most of the Immortals who died in the past three thousand years didn't need the Tiangong to take action; they just silently disappeared on their own.

The Inverted Heaven-Defying Great Array has been dismantled, so the massive infusion of spiritual energy has stopped, which is why the Illusion Sect Immortals here are also starting to fear that they will follow in their footsteps.
