第三千二百五十三章 再见幻术

Lin Xuan's遁光 was incredibly swift, quickly vanishing into the passage. The scenery before his eyes became blurry, and a sense of dizziness emerged in his mind.

Lin Xuan did not show any signs of surprise on his face. Since he had embarked on the path of cultivation, countless odd encounters had occurred to him. Even searching for a True Immortal's lair was no longer new to him.

During his time in the mortal world, he had experienced similar situations.

This sense of dizziness was perfectly normal; it worked just like long-distance teleportation. Lin Xuan wasn't afraid but needed to be wary of being ambushed by the Blood Moon Demon Toad.

Due to a momentary lapse in concentration earlier, he had fallen into the trap set by his opponent. Naturally, he would not make the same mistake again.

Experience taught wisdom; Lin Xuan was inherently cautious and this time added an extra layer of caution on top of his usual vigilance.

As he approached the end of the passage, Lin Xuan took a deep breath and swept his sleeves, emitting silver light. Sharp sword energy surged out from his sleeves, swirling around him.

The sword light was like snow, tearing through space wherever it went.

Even if the Blood Moon Demon Toad had built up its strength for an attack, this power should suffice to handle it. However, Lin Xuan's worries turned out to be unnecessary.

There were no ambushes behind the passage.

Clearly, the Blood Moon Demon Toad also knew that such tricks would not be very effective.

It was merely adding to the joke.

Instead of foolishly setting up an ambush, he should quickly seek out the remains left by a True Immortal.

As they say, a small difference can lead to a big mistake. If he could seize the initiative and obtain relics from a True Immortal, the benefits would be immeasurable.

This reasoning was clear in the Blood Moon Demon Toad's mind, and Lin Xuan understood it as well. Seeing no ambushes, he quickly deduced his opponent's intentions.

Lin Xuan did not take any chances; he raised his head and released his divine sense to survey the surroundings.

"What is this..."

Looking at the scenery before him, even with his composure, Lin Xuan could not help showing surprise in his eyes.

It was no wonder he was shocked. A True Immortal's lair should have some magnificent buildings, even if there were no pavilions or terraces. The environment should be decent. But what did he see?

The sun blazed overhead as fierce winds swept past, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Before him lay a vast desert.

Looking around, all he saw were scattered rocks and dusty slopes; not a single green plant was in sight.

There wasn't even any trace of primordial energy.

A True Immortal's lair?

Was this a mistake!

How could it be like this?

If not for the mysterious禁制 light array, Lin Xuan almost thought he had gone to the wrong place.

Could it be an illusionary technique?

The idea flashed through his mind.

Even if a wasteland appeared before him, it wouldn't be surprising. But seeing this desert was truly unbelievable.

An illusionary禁制 became the best explanation.

Of course, there were still questions in Lin Xuan's mind. If it was an illusion, where was the Blood Moon Demon Toad?

Lin Xuan didn't believe that his opponent could break through a True Immortal's禁制 so quickly.

But he had no time to delve into these details now. The mysteries of a True Immortal's lair were beyond his comprehension. His immediate concern was to dispel this illusionary禁制 and find the treasures left by the True Immortal.

With that thought, Lin Xuan did not hesitate. He took a deep breath, silver light emanating from his eyes.

Heavens Bird Divine Eyes!

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

Lin Xuan looked around, but under the effect of his divine sense, the scene remained unchanged, showing no signs of any change.

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, not revealing too much surprise on his face. He sighed inwardly; a True Immortal's methods were truly formidable. Even after countless trials and tribulations, his divine sense still proved ineffective.

But Lin Xuan was not anxious. He had other means to handle this situation. He took another deep breath, expelling the stale air from his lungs.

Then he raised his right hand and pointed forward with one finger.

The Nine Palaces Sword, which had been circling him, immediately emitted a burst of light. The sound of 'swoosh' filled his ears as nine immortal swords flew back at high speed.

At first glance, these nine immortal swords shimmered with divine light, seemingly no different from other swords. But as the user, Lin Xuan knew that each sword in this set of his命魂 treasure had unique strengths.

Nine Palaces Sword was not just a fancy name; it comprised swords of nine different attributes.

With Nine Palaces activated, all under heaven were invincible.

Although there was some exaggeration in these words, the nine attributes of the Nine Palaces Sword indeed possessed incredible power.

The five elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—were certainly included. The remaining ice, wind, and lightning corresponded to the different types of spiritual roots that cultivators might have.

The last attribute was peculiar; most cultivators had probably never heard of it before.

Illusionary attribute!

Yes, changeable and versatile, akin to the power behind illusionary禁制 arrays.

As they say, he who ties a bell should also untie it. To dispel this wondrous illusionary array, his own illusory attribute swords would be the most effective weapon.

This was not an idea that came out of nowhere; there were detailed records in the Black Moon Sky Witch Technique.

These nine illusory attribute swords were versatile tools for both offense and defense. They could create illusions to attack enemies or break through arrays of the same attribute, their complexity beyond mere words. He had rarely had opportunities to use them before.

While illusionary techniques were widely useful in the cultivation world, the conditions required for mastery were stringent, making proficient practitioners few and far between.

Lin Xuan had encountered such situations, but ordinary illusions could be dispelled by his divine eyes, so he never got a chance to use these illusory attribute swords as a trump card.

Counting on his fingers, Lin Xuan had very few opportunities to use these illusory swords.

But there was no panic on his face; he still looked confident and assured.

Practice makes perfect; even though he rarely used them, the Nine Palaces Sword was now at his command with unparalleled skill.

He waved his hands, the nine immortal swords converging in the center. Silver light burst forth.

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

"Quickly!"

Lin Xuan pointed forward again.

The silver lotus bloomed, and森然 sword energy shot out from within.

Like a storm, it covered an area of hundreds of feet in all directions.

Raindrops pattering on banana leaves, the sound of 'pitter-patter' filled his ears as countless sword energies surged forth, crossing and weaving. Yet they remained ineffective.

In just a few moments, half a cup of tea had passed, but the desert was still a desert; there was no change in the scenery before him.
