第三千零五十八章 幻属性飞剑

At the same time, on another side.

Lin Xuan looked at the scenery before him and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

A large mountain was in view. At its foot, there lay a small village, tranquil and peaceful.

Birds sang from branches while rabbits darted through the grass, seemingly searching for something delicious to eat.

To be honest, what he saw had no particular allure; such a serene and beautiful little village could easily be found in the mundane world.

But everything before Lin Xuan was too familiar.

Before entering the cultivation realm, he lived in such a small village. He knew every plant and tree here intimately.

The scene before him matched his memories to the smallest detail, causing Lin Xuan to feel somewhat disoriented.

However, this moment of distraction only lasted for an instant. Soon, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

An illusion?

Lin Xuan, with his rich experience as a cultivator, quickly came up with a reasonable explanation for his predicament.

This ancient immortal's ruins were indeed not easy to navigate; after dealing with so many puppets, he had inadvertently fallen into an illusion again.

If it was a group of Spirit Formation stage cultivators searching for treasure, even if there were dozens of them, they might all end up in the netherworld. Even for those at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, whether or not they could survive this illusion was still uncertain.

After all, the nature of this illusion was different from what he had encountered before; it actually had the ability to discern one's thoughts. Otherwise, it wouldn't have created a village that resembled his former home.

To call it an illusion would be more like calling it a heart demon. Even for cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, if they weren’t careful, they could easily fall into this trap.

But such was the case only for ordinary cultivators. For Lin Xuan, all of this amounted to showing off in front of an expert.

Of course, Lin Xuan wasn't careless. He took a deep breath and silver light shone from his eyes.

Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye!

Just like the eyes of the king of birds, it had the ability to see through illusions.

Lin Xuan looked around, but under the effect of his spirit eye, there was no change in the scene before him. It didn't seem to be working at all.

His brows rose slightly as he felt a bit surprised. After all, he was now at the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Although the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye couldn’t compare to an actual phoenix, it was nearly on par with one, and yet it failed to see through this illusion.

This situation had never happened before.

But despite his shock, Lin Xuan wasn't at a loss for what to do.

While the illusion array here was outrageous, the fact that the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye couldn’t see through it didn’t mean he had no other abilities to break it!

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and expelled some stale air. Then, with his right hand raised, he pointed outwards.

The Nine Palaces Sword Spirit, which had been circling around him, suddenly emitted bright light. A whistling sound entered his ears as nine swords of immortality flew back at incredible speed.

At first glance, these nine immortal swords seemed no different from the others, but Lin Xuan knew that each one was unique in its own way.

Nine Palaces Sword Spirit wasn’t just a pretty name; it consisted of nine swords with different elemental natures: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, lightning, and illusion.

Together they could conquer all under heaven.

While there was some exaggeration in the saying, the nine elemental natures of the Nine Palaces Sword Spirit were indeed incredibly mysterious. Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were definitely included. The remaining ice, wind, and lightning corresponded to the different spirit roots of cultivators.

The last nature was rather unique; most cultivators had never even heard of it.

Illusion Nature!

Indeed, changeable and unpredictable—just like the power behind this illusion array!

As they say, whoever ties a bell should be able to untie it. To break this wondrous illusion array, his own illusion nature sword would be the perfect tool.

This wasn’t an idea that came out of nowhere; there was detailed documentation in the Black Moon Sky Witch Technique.

These nine illusion nature swords were versatile weapons for both offense and defense. They could create illusions to attack enemies or break through arrays with the same elemental nature, but their true power was hard to describe in words. He just hadn’t had a chance to use them before!

While illusions were useful in the cultivation realm, the conditions required to cultivate them were extremely strict, so few cultivators mastered this skill.

Lin Xuan had encountered such abilities before, but his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye could usually break through ordinary illusions, so he never got the opportunity to use these illusion nature swords as a trump card.

This was indeed his first time using them.

But Lin Xuan didn’t look particularly anxious. After all, his strength was there, and even if he hadn't used it before, that didn’t mean he hadn’t practiced. So he appeared confident.

He waved his hands, the nine immortal swords converging in the middle, emitting bright silver light.

After a moment, the light faded, revealing a silver lotus flower.

"Quickly!"

Lin Xuan pointed his finger forward. The silver lotus bloomed, and sword energy surged out from within, like a storm of wind and rain, covering an area of hundreds of feet in all directions.

The scenery before him began to distort. After some time, a tearing sound filled the air, as if porcelain had shattered on the ground.

Mountains, trees, even the earth beneath his feet—all were torn apart like a painting being ripped into pieces.

It was hard to describe this feeling with words.

But Lin Xuan found himself very familiar with what he saw. The meaning behind it was clear; he hadn’t wasted his efforts. The illusion nature sword truly wasn’t trivial, and this wondrous illusion array had been silently broken.

A satisfied look appeared on Lin Xuan’s face.

The power of the illusion nature sword exceeded his expectations. With such a treasure at hand, it would be hard for any illusion in the Three Realms to trap him.

The scenery before him became blurry. Soon, he found himself back in that palace.

Looking around, this palace seemed slightly smaller than what he had seen from outside. It was only about a hundred feet long and wide, clean and tidy with square bricks laid on the ground, looking very simple. The items inside weren’t many; there were some wooden racks and boxes, and at the front of the hall stood an alchemy furnace.

Could this be where several ancient great sages hid in secret?

Lin Xuan frowned. This was quite different from his expectations for a cultivator’s living quarters.

But despite his surprise, Lin Xuan didn’t return empty-handed. He swept his gaze across and walked past the wooden racks on his left.

A pleasant fragrance wafted through the air. The racks were dark red in color, but Lin Xuan couldn’t identify what kind of spirit wood they were made from. However, the scent was refreshing to the mind and soul.

Clearly, just these wooden racks were a priceless treasure.
