Chapter 144: Ying Mo arrives, breaks the illusion, do they have any more tricks

~7 min read 1,212 words

Yuan Zuozong had thought that after the news was sent back,

the Young Master would send someone specifically skilled in breaking formations.

He had not expected that the one who came would be the Young Master himself.

"Young Master."

Yuan Zuozong immediately lowered his head.

"How is the situation?"

Ying Mo did not look at him, but asked casually.

"Those people have been inside for three quarters of an hour."

"The mist blocks the line of sight, and I cannot judge the specific location of those people."

After listening to Yuan Zuozong's words, Ying Mo pondered for a moment.

"You wait here."

After giving the order, he turned and walked toward the direction of the mist.

Lu Li followed closely behind Ying Mo.

Seeing Ying Mo's actions, Lu Li had already guessed what the Young Master wanted to do.

Ying Mo strode directly into the formation.

As soon as he entered the illusion array,

the gray mist before his eyes immediately dissipated.

He appeared in another scene as if he had teleported.

"Young Master, don't worry, we will definitely escort you out of the encirclement."

"Reinforcements will arrive soon, let's hold on."

"Careful!"

"Escort the Young Master."

Shouts rang in Ying Mo's ears.

The sound of blades clashing.

The air was filled with a thick smell of blood.

Ying Mo had instantly arrived at the scene from five years ago.

Looking at this scene before him,

Ying Mo's eye sockets immediately turned red.

He looked at the brothers around him who had given their lives to protect him.

Ying Mo's heart felt a complex mix of emotions.

Just then, in the distance, an arrow shot straight toward him.

Someone nearby saw the arrow and immediately wanted to pounce over to block it in front of Ying Mo.

Ying Mo's consciousness was immediately pulled back to reality.

He remembered that it was this arrow that had claimed A-San's life.

"Careful!"

He threw the sword in his hand directly.

Then, the sword and the long arrow collided in mid-air.

A-San only felt relieved after seeing this scene.

"Young Master, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

At this moment, Ying Mo also felt the pain coming from his own body.

The illusion before him was too realistic.

Even the pain was exactly the same as it had been back then.

But Ying Mo no longer had time to worry about this.

Looking at the Xiongnu rushing toward them,

a crazed killing intent flashed in his eyes.

If it weren't for these Xiongnu, the brothers behind him wouldn't have died.

Although he knew that these brothers were only in the illusion and were all fake,

Ying Mo did not want to experience the scene of watching his brothers die one by one before his eyes again.

Ying Mo broke through the encirclement of these people and charged toward the Xiongnu alone.

"Young Master."

"Careful!"

The shouts behind him did not stop Ying Mo's footsteps.

The Xiongnu in front seemed to show a mocking smile.

But in Ying Mo's eyes, a cold and bone-chilling killing intent was dancing.

He discovered that his cultivation base had not changed at all.

"A feast of slaughter."

A few words slowly came out of Ying Mo's mouth.

Then, the long sword in Ying Mo's hand drew a dazzling arc of light, directly severing the head of the leader.

Blood immediately sprayed out.

This blood sprayed onto the faces of those Xiongnu.

These Xiongnu obviously had not expected what was happening before them.

For a moment, they were all slightly stunned.

But Ying Mo did not care about them.

Raising the long sword in his hand, he was like a fierce tiger falling into a flock of sheep.

With every attack, a life fell under the long sword in his hand.

One sword,

two swords.

At this moment, Ying Mo was like an ancient god of slaughter.

What he held in his hand was the power of life and death.

His madness made the surrounding Xiongnu feel a sense of fear.

Around him, a small hill made of corpses slowly began to form.

Yet Ying Mo still did not care.

Until the last Xiongnu died at the hands of Ying Mo,

Ying Mo slowly stopped his movements.

The setting sun shone on him,

as if crowning him.

Everyone present only felt that Ying Mo seemed to be shrouded in a halo.

Looking at the Annan Army brothers standing behind him,

a smile appeared on the corner of Ying Mo's mouth.

Although he had not protected them in the real world,

in the illusion, he had protected them after all.

The illusion began to show cracks at this moment.

Ying Mo knew,

only by breaking through the desperate situation within the illusion could one possibly break the illusion itself.

And these desperate situations were all manifested from the most difficult scenes in the consciousness of those who entered the illusion.

"The Young Master is mighty!"

"The Young Master is worthy of being the God of War of our Great Qin."

"……"

Inside the illusion,

at the moment of its destruction, the voices of those Annan Army brothers from back then echoed in Ying Mo's ears.

Five years later,

a faint smile appeared on the corner of Ying Mo's mouth.

This illusion array was truly interesting.

Lu Li, who had been following Ying Mo, had also entered the illusion.

But after entering, he was immediately trapped in a piece of darkness.

No matter how Lu Li tried to escape within the darkness, he could not walk out of it.

In the real world, a look of pain appeared on Lu Li's face.

And at this time, Ying Mo had already awakened from the illusion.

Looking at the painful expression on Lu Li's face,

Ying Mo immediately understood.

At this moment, Lu Li must have been affected by the illusion.

"Face it, break through."

Ying Mo placed his hand on the center of Lu Li's forehead.

Then, a voice appeared in Lu Li's consciousness.

Lu Li, who was running endlessly in the darkness, stopped his footsteps immediately upon hearing Ying Mo's voice.

"Young Master!"

"Face it?"

"Break through?"

Lu Li repeated the words Ying Mo had said.

His gaze shifted to the surrounding darkness.

Seeing this darkness, Lu Li's eyes fluctuated.

This was the fear buried deep in his heart, and also a fear he had never known.

Even Lu Li himself was not clear about his fear of this darkness.

At this moment, after hearing Ying Mo's words, he suddenly realized this point.

Thinking of his previous attempts to escape,

a bitter smile appeared on Lu Li's face.

Loneliness and darkness still permeated around him.

At this moment, Lu Li chose not to escape anymore.

Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground.

He slowly calmed his heart and mind, attempting to accept the darkness.

This process was very slow.

At this moment, Lu Li clearly saw his own rejection of the darkness in his heart.

Break through!

The two words Ying Mo said appeared in his heart once again.

Lu Li chewed on these two words repeatedly.

"Breaking through the darkness means letting oneself slowly accept the darkness, merge into the darkness, and no longer fear the darkness."

Lu Li said slowly.
