Chapter 1034: Illusion Technique Contest
Ye Liuyun was originally rather dense in matters of the heart, so he felt no stir at all toward the unfamiliar Xing Yao.
"Fists and feet have no eyes; I can only say I did my best!"
Ye Liuyun said this while making a gesturing invitation.
The elder beside the arena also announced the start of the match.
However, Xing Yao seemed to have no intention of making a move, and was still chatting idly with Ye Liuyun.
"Young Master Ye, you're so unfeeling toward fragrance and jade, it chills my heart!" Saying this, she also pulled down her already low collar a bit more.
Ye Liuyun, however, was completely unmoved, and directly struck out with a palm of Grasp Heaven and Earth, aiming at Xing Yao.
He also knew this palm couldn't harm Xing Yao; he merely wanted to force her to start the match.
"Wait a moment, Young Master Ye, I have important information to tell you!"
Seeing this, Xing Yao hastily spoke up, wanting Ye Liuyun to stop his hand.
Ye Liuyun hesitated slightly, but still did not withdraw his hand; the Mysterious Origin of that palm also rushed straight toward Xing Yao.
Xing Yao, helpless, could only unleash a full-force palm to meet it.
Immediately she also sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun: "Young Master Ye, don't you want to know why the Shadow wants to kill you?"
"Huh?" Ye Liuyun blinked, and indeed did not strike again.
At that moment, the Ten Thousand Gods Command in Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness suddenly burst forth with light.
"Illusion technique?"
Only then did Ye Liuyun realize that Xing Yao had already launched an illusion attack on him.
However, he was still very curious whether Xing Yao truly knew about the Shadow matter.
The Shadow wants to kill him, and now everyone present knows.
He didn't know whether Xing Yao was just trying to mystify him or truly knew some information.
So he pretended to be affected by the illusion and replied to Xing Yao: "Alright, go ahead!"
"Young Master Ye, why the rush? I, this beautiful woman, stand before you—don't you have any thoughts?"
Xing Yao struck poses and flirted with Ye Liuyun before him; her snow-white legs also lifted slightly.
"So you don't know?" Ye Liuyun thought, seeing this, that she simply had no details and was just using this opportunity to cast an illusion.
Who would have thought Xing Yao would continue the Transmission Voice: "I certainly know. The Shadow was found by the Crown Prince, but the one who ordered your death was not the Crown Prince. Do you want to know who it is?"
Ye Liuyun's heart skipped: "It seems this Xing Yao really does know something!"
But he kept a calm exterior, continuing to placate Xing Yao: "Go on, tell me."
"Come over, hug me, and I'll tell you, alright? Xing Yao has admired Young Master Ye for a long time!" Xing Yao continued to cast the illusion.
In Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, the Ten Thousand Gods Command burst forth with even stronger light.
"This woman's illusion technique is truly strong, actually able to provoke such a reaction from the Ten Thousand Gods Command." Ye Liuyun also dared not underestimate her in his heart.
If it weren't for the Ten Thousand Gods Command, he would truly be easily led astray.
Surely it was when she was giving him that Transmission Voice just now that she cast the illusion.
"This woman's scheming is also strong." Ye Liuyun thought this, already decided to perform a Soul Search on Xing Yao.
He knew asking would surely yield no result; better to settle it quickly—direct Soul Search would be more reliable.
So he also unleashed an illusion technique, attacking Xing Yao.
Xing Yao first blinked, then began to giggle.
"Young Master Ye, your level of illusion technique can't fool this servant! But that you could break free from my illusion is already quite extraordinary."
She thought Ye Liuyun had just shaken off her illusion, so she launched a counterattack.
Ye Liuyun merely smiled faintly: "That was just a probe; take another look at this illusion—can you break it?"
Speaking, Ye Liuyun's figure suddenly split into two, one front and one back, sandwiching Xing Yao between them.
Then from two it became four, successively striking out, each unleashing Grasp Heaven and Earth, sealing off all of Xing Yao's escape routes.
Seeing this, Xing Yao was also startled.
"What illusion is this? How do I feel that all four palms are real?"
These four palms, each is Buddha Demon Power constantly shifting, also mixed with the strength of two flames; within them, the Heaven and Earth Power is also extremely rich.
She sensed it, but truly could not discern illusion from reality.
"This brat actually has such strong illusion technique?" She was instantly dazed.
For Xing Yao now, the most urgent matter is to find out which of these four palms is real and which three are fake! If she chooses wrong, she will likely suffer grave injury.
Ye Liuyun's figure then shifted from four to two, then to one, leaving only a single figure standing opposite Xing Yao.
These four palms were about to strike Xing Yao's body.
Xing Yao gritted her teeth, both hands thrusting forth, pouring all her True Essence into her palms, and thrusting one palm forward and one backward.
She truly could not tell which palm was real, so she could only muster all her strength to block two palms; the remaining two would be left to luck.
Ye Liuyun, however, continually gazed at her with an expressionless face.
"Boom, boom, bang!"
Several booms rang out.
After her True Essence was exhausted, everyone saw Xing Yao with disheveled hair, vomiting blood as she collapsed on the spot.
The spectators also cried out in curiosity.
"What illusion is this? Am I seeing things? How can I not tell which figure is real?"
"Did all four palms land? Could they all be real?"
"This brat is utterly unfeeling toward fragrance and jade—such a great beauty, beaten so miserably!"
For a moment, everyone speculated wildly, guessing what illusion technique Ye Liuyun used.
Some men felt pity and sympathized with Xing Yao.
Ye Liuyun hesitated not at all, directly dragging Xing Yao's main soul into his creation realm and beginning Soul Search.
"What kind of illusion technique is this!" Xing Yao's Divine Soul Power was not as strong as Ye Liuyun's, and she also knew she couldn't resist.
She only wanted to know, before she died, what illusion technique Ye Liuyun was using.
To her, that illusion technique made the four figures and four palms seem real.
She couldn't be sure about the figures, but she could truly feel the four palms that struck her.
"They're all real!" Ye Liuyun also didn't hide it from him.
Originally, when Ye Liuyun split from one into two, he used a clone, and this step was also the most crucial.
When no one could tell real from fake, they would then focus their attention on breaking the illusion.
And when going from two to four, he merely used void translocation to create a time difference; however, at that time nobody paid attention to this aspect.
This was also due to their rigid thinking, causing them to overlook this point.
"Didn't you notice I quickly gathered those figures back? I was afraid the time lag from void translocation would give me away!"
Ye Liuyun explained this to Xing Yao.
