Chapter 1746: Exposed

At this time, Bai Ten came to report: "According to the confession of the Illusion Sect captives captured just now, besides the Sect Master Xiao Wencheng, there are eight other Elders in the sect, all of whom have statues worshipped in the Wind God Temple and enjoy incense. Each one has vast divine powers and comes and goes high in the air." "In other words, besides the Thousand Illusions, the Illusion Sect still has nine Immortals sitting in command!" Bai Ziqi was slightly moved. "More than I expected. It is worthy of being an ancient True Immortal cave dwelling; the defensive power is formidable."

Including the Thousand Illusions, ten great powers.

Bai Ten added: "They came across the mirror! There is a Haoyuan Golden Mirror on the top of Shilong Peak. If the Illusion Sect Elders want to go anywhere, as long as they step into the mirror, they can arrive in one step!"

Bai Seventeen suddenly realized: "No wonder they came so fast!"

"Once the lighthouse lights up, they can't pass through the mirror into the barrier, at most stopping at the edge." From the edge of the barrier to the lakeside battlefield, the distance was several li. The Illusion Sect people who came over either walked or flew on instruments, which wasn't that convenient. "The Goddess has boundless magic power, even isolating the power of the Haoyuan Golden Mirror."

Otherwise, this battle would be too hard to fight.

Bai Seventeen said: "With so many Immortals, if they swarmed up, we would be hard-pressed to hold on. Thanks to the Goddess and the Envoy for their brilliant calculations, setting up a barrier to isolate prying eyes, and ordering them to disperse, breaking them one by one!"

"The Immortals won't swarm up." Bai Ziqi said. "Looking at it this way, the plan to build more lighthouses to lure and kill Immortals can continue, just with slight modifications. Yinzhu Island is not big; once the illusion-forbidden areas are connected, we can advance into the middle of the island, and then we won't have to worry about the Yakshas anymore."

Bai Ziqi was certain that when they first broke into the Chaohu, the Illusion Sect didn't know their foundation and wouldn't dispatch a luxurious lineup of all Immortals, at most testing them locally.

However, that was the Illusion Sect's best opportunity for battle. Once missed, the Tiangong would take root in the Chaohu and swallow the Illusion Sect bit by bit.

Didn't the Illusion Sect want to probe the foundation of the Tiangong team? But the existence of the lighthouse barrier made it impossible for them to figure out how much high-end combat power the Tiangong had actually dispatched.

Bai Ziqi was building lighthouses all over Yinzhu Island, which could disperse and lure away the Illusion Sect Immortals, making them unable to gather their strength in one place.

There were truly very few of these so-called "great powers" who were proficient in military strategy, which made it convenient for the Tiangong to break them one by one.

Bai Seventeen smiled: "Although these Immortals are strong, they have no experience in leading troops to fight; they are definitely no match for the Envoy."

"After luring and killing a few Immortals, we can advance to Shilong Peak and uproot the Thousand Illusions' nest." Bai Ziqi asked casually, "By the way, has any news come down from Shilong Peak?"

"Not yet."

Bai Ziqi looked at the mountains to the north: "Shilong Peak has the richest reserves of Profound Crystals, but it's not easy to handle."

Another two quarter-hours passed, and Bai Ten came to report: "Envoy, we tortured five Immortal Sect disciples and finally asked the answer you wanted."

He said two sentences in a low voice.

Bai Ziqi beamed: "What about the reserves?"

"They don't know."

"That's to be expected; how would they care about these things?" Bai Ziqi's order was concise and to the point: "Go to the mining village and figure it out."

"Yes."

……

Another team of people passed through the Haoyuan Golden Mirror and entered the Chaohu lakeside battlefield.

The leader was still an Illusion Sect Elder.

Just at this moment, a Yingtai sheep-drawn carriage wound its way up the mountain road of Shilong Peak and stopped above the square.

Two Illusion Sect disciples walked into the corridor and saluted Xiao Wencheng: "Sect Master, the Profound Crystals have been delivered."

Xiao Wencheng didn't answer, just waved his hand, letting them work quickly.

Li and Wu moved the boxes from the Yingtai carriage down and poured them into the Haoyuan Golden Mirror.

Clatter, clatter, clatter——

The crisp sound of Profound Crystals colliding was endless. This box took a full dozen breaths to be completely emptied.

Dong Rui secretly timed it on the side, saying "Holy shit" a dozen times in his heart. How many Profound Crystals must be in this box? Pouring them directly into the Haoyuan Golden Mirror was truly like throwing them into water; he couldn't even hear half a splash.

Only with extremely abundant inventory would one dare to be so extravagant.

A small Illusion Sect, if placed outside, would also be rich enough to rival a country, and could rival several countries. At least, he hadn't seen any country in the outside world dare to waste Profound Crystals like this! Beijia maintained the Jinghongdu teleportation array, consuming dozens of jin of Profound Crystals a day, which he already felt was exaggerated, but compared to the Illusion Sect, it was a drop in the bucket.

The Thousand Illusions and the Illusion Sect had indeed hoarded a large number of Profound Crystals as the basic resources for the operation of the Chaohu. But He Lingchuan knew very well that the Illusion Sect's Profound Crystal freedom was the result of forcibly exploiting the Flash Gold Plain for over a hundred years!

These spiritual energies originally belonged to the living creatures of heaven and earth.

Just at this moment, He Lingchuan suddenly felt a palpitation.

The treasure blade gave a warning!

The Floating Life Blade was connected to his heart, and this was prompting him that there was a situation.

But the summit was quiet and still. Apart from the flowing clouds and mist, there was nothing new... oh, there was.

His gaze swept over, and he happened to see the third Illusion Sect disciple who had gotten off the Yingtai sheep-drawn carriage, carrying a box and walking over, also intending to pour out Profound Crystals.

This was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. Apart from being expressionless, there seemed to be nothing unusual.

But before he walked to the mirror, the Floating Life Blade trembled again.

It was this person! He Lingchuan suddenly stepped sideways and blocked in front of him: "What is your name?"

"Fang Qing." The boy stopped his steps, looked at him, and then looked at Xiao Wencheng: "Under Elder Liu's seat."

Xiao Wencheng turned his head: "What's wrong?"

How would He Lingchuan know what was wrong, but he could make small talk: "A thirteen or fourteen-year-old kid, what are you doing coming up here?"

Fang Qing raised the box in his hand: "I, I came up to deliver Profound Crystals."

Li and Wu, who had just finished pouring the Profound Crystals, heard this and looked at each other, their gazes flickering.

Junior Brother Fang didn't seem to say that just now? Dong Rui saw through their hesitation at a glance: "What's going on?"

"Junior Brother Fang just said that Elder Liu was looking for him..."

Senior Brother Li, who was speaking, was closest to Fang Qing. Unexpectedly, the latter opened his mouth and spat out a yellow shadow. Senior Brother Li happened to have his mouth open, and this thing was about to shoot into his throat.

With a light "ding" sound, He Lingchuan reversed the handle of the Floating Life Blade and knocked this yellow shadow to the ground.

Fang Qing didn't say a word and turned to flee.

The secret was out, and there was no need for it to stay. It had to rush back to Chaohu to report what it had seen and heard on Shilong Peak.

The location of the Immortal Light Cave treasure storehouse, and the mysterious mirror on Shilong Peak, were all important intelligence! Especially this mirror; the earth-shaking methods of the Illusion Sect were probably all executed through it. As long as this intelligence was delivered to the Envoy and the Gods, they would definitely have corresponding methods to defend against the enemy.

But it didn't run five steps before a handful of spider silk shot from the side, sticking to its back and pulling it back, the force astonishingly great.

It was Mother Zhu who had made a move.

Running past the Spider Queen was a very dangerous thing.

This rebound was faster than rushing out. Seeing Fang Qing about to be dragged back in front of the mirror, its mouth suddenly opened, and another thing whooshed out, rushing toward the edge of the platform, as fast as lightning. ===== CHAPTER 1747 =====
