Chapter 248: Talent Domain

"Brother Jian!"

Inside the Soul Fighting Arena, Ning Rongrong suddenly exclaimed, causing Grandmaster, Liu Erlong, and the others to all look over.

"Hum hum!"

Only to see a beautiful, teardrop-like blue water droplet suddenly blooming with radiance on her forehead.

Ning Rongrong clutched her heart abruptly, tears streaming down: "Brother Jian is in pain! He is in so much pain!"

"Rongrong! What are you saying?!"

The first to react was Zhu Zhuqing; she grabbed Ning Rongrong by the shoulders, the frost on her pretty face melting away, replaced by intense anxiety: "What happened to Qin Jian?!"

"Ocean's Tear, heart connection... He... is in danger!"

Ning Rongrong touched her forehead, abruptly shook off Zhu Zhuqing's hand, and charged straight out.

"Look! The petals of the Lovesick Heartbroken Red!"

Xiao Wu suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone looked, and sure enough, they saw red light flickering and vibrating rapidly inside the collars of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

At the same time, Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu felt the same heart palpitations.

"Danger! Brother must have encountered danger!"

Almost all of the Shrek group rushed out...

"Could this be... Izanami..."

Inside the illusion, Qin Jian spoke teasing words, but there was not a hint of a smile in his expression.

Even knowing that the five girls before him were projections of his own heart, when they appeared before him so realistically, so resolutely wanting him to choose one, he still felt bewildered... and pained.

Even though he knew that no matter which one he chose, he could break this illusion constructed by the obsessions in his heart, he still could not go against his true heart to make a choice.

Because it was impossible for him to let go of any of them; they were all such good girls, he couldn't let go! He had long since become a scumbag to his very core!

"Brother Jian, we have a marriage contract! Why won't you choose me?" Ning Rongrong was covered in tears.

"Qin Jian, I am willing to be your little kitten, I am willing to hide by your side for a lifetime and be your only pet, will you choose me?" Zhu Zhuqing wept miserably.

"My, Shui Bing'er's, heart is made of Ice and Snow in this life; once I have set my heart on someone, I will never change. Qin Jian, do you not want me like this?" Shui Bing'er looked at him firmly.

"Qin Jian, I don't have that many thoughts. I like you, so I like you. My most fundamental wish is to spend a lifetime with you. Won't you just be with me alone?" Huo Wu said earnestly.

"Brother, we are all Soul Beasts. Why must we be with humans? Can't we go back to the Star Dou Great Forest together? Let's not live with humans anymore. Will you come home with me?" Xiao Wu pleaded.

"Hoo... hoo..."

Qin Jian looked at their faces, gradually clutching his chest as he crouched down, as if he were unable to catch his breath.

His consciousness was gradually becoming blurred...

He could not make a choice; he was indecisive, he could not let go of a single one, and thus he could not break the illusion...

"Interesting little brat, to actually be able to torture himself like this."

Deep in the woods, Shi Nian stood with his arms crossed, watching the Qin Jian who had collapsed on the ground and was twitching incessantly with great composure: "Looks like he can kill himself, so I won't need to deliver the finishing blow."

He did not notice that the surrounding objects were gradually covered in a layer of Phantom Purple light, and imperceptible mist was quietly spreading into his body.

Bit by bit, wisp by wisp, silently.

"Hm? Something feels wrong..."

Finally, Shi Nian sensed something amiss.

But by this time, his eyes had completely turned Phantom Purple, and hazy, indistinct impulses began to rise from the bottom of his heart, then swept through his entire body, like an erupting volcano, shaking the earth and mountains in an instant.

"Heh, the hunter will eventually become the prey..."

Qin Jian, who had been lying on the ground twitching, suddenly stopped, then slowly and unsteadily stood up.

"This... what is going on?! Why can't I control myself?!"

Shi Nian was shocked and furious: "Shouldn't you be trapped in my illusion, struggling in pain? Why are you able to wake up?!"

"Your questions... are too many..."

Qin Jian's face was covered in sweat, and he looked listless and extremely weak.

Shi Nian's illusion was not too difficult for Tang San, but for Qin Jian, it was much more disgusting, because in that kind of super Asura Field, a predicament where every girl demanded he choose, he was fundamentally unable to make a choice.

In reality, Ning Rongrong and the others couldn't bear to force him like this, which was why he could still flirt back and forth quite happily.

Actually, each of them must have been pained and conflicted...

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Shui Bing'er had figured it out, but Xiao Wu and Huo Wu clearly had not, especially Huo Wu, whose naturally domineering and straightforward personality meant that once she decided on something, she would never change, and right now, she only wanted Qin Jian to belong entirely to her.

As Qin Jian thought about this, his head began to ache as if it were splitting again.

He suddenly raised his gaze to look at Shi Nian, his eyes incomparably cold: "You brought this pain upon me, then you should have a good taste of it yourself!"

"Chi!"

Phantom Purple light, as if tangible, radiated from his body, merging with the surrounding faint mist, gradually transforming into a vast... Domain!

"A... Domain! You are only a Soul Ancestor, how can you have a Domain!" Shi Nian was terrified.

He sensed a certain mist that triggered instinctive reactions rising up inside his body, its impact increasing several times over, surging straight into his brain, intending to destroy his consciousness.

"Have you never heard of something called... a Talent Domain?"

Qin Jian raised his head, reached out one hand, and grabbed at the air toward Shi Nian, with endless purple mist coiling around him: "Taste my Love Mist Domain!"

"Uh... ahhhh..."

With one final exertion, Shi Nian finally lost his sanity completely, turning into a beast... with only the most primal desires!

His eyes were red, and he looked at the large tree in front of him as if looking at a beautiful woman: "Hehehe... hehehe... beauty, submit to me! Hehehehahahaha..."

With a ripping sound, the clothes on his body exploded into fragments and fell, and then he began to move against the tree trunk like a pile driver.

"Bang bang bang..."

At this eyesore of a scene, Qin Jian covered his face, unable to bear watching.

One can only say that as expected of a Soul Saint powerhouse, even that place has been trained to be as hard as iron, and when it comes to thrusting, it is even smoother than a woodpecker.

Qin Jian sat down cross-legged with difficulty, slowly recovering his soul power and calming his wounded spirit.

The Love Mist Domain is his innate Domain as a Love Flower, capable of stimulating the emotional nature of enemies within its range; for some it is desire, for others it is affection, varying from person to person and differing for everyone.

Just like Bibi Dong back then, she was not filled with baleful aura and desire like Shi Nian; what was stimulated in her were resentment and longing.

Resentment toward her own experiences, and a longing for sincere affection.

That is why she searched for these in the illusion, sinking into it for Ten Thousand Year...

Of course, that was only when Qin Jian unfolded the Love Mist Domain in his Soul Beast form that it could take effect on Bibi Dong; it is not so easy now.

Even when dealing with Shi Nian, he had been releasing the Love Mist from the very beginning, and only after it accumulated to a certain degree could he make Shi Nian lose control over himself.
