Yao Guang Saint Master smiled and said, “Those who can endure the baptism of the ancient aura have an unusually firm will.”
“It's no wonder you didn't stop him.”
The Master of Guang Han Palace sneered, “However, wanting to survive in my thirty-three layers of Guang Han Illusion Array is not that simple. Even if I deliberately activate it, it would be enough to erase a dominant figure at the late stage of Heavenly Saint. Now we’ll see if your Heavenly Work Holy Son can rely on those so-called abilities you mentioned to withstand the erosion of my illusion. It’s impossible for me to go easy on him.”
“And if I’m not mistaken, the reason you are willing to stand up for that Qin Chen, aside from valuing him, should be for other reasons as well.”
The Master of Guang Han Palace's gaze flickered with the light of wisdom.
“Indeed, I value Qin Chen, not only because he defeated Xiang Wudi, but there are other reasons. However, this is a secret of Heavenly Work, so I cannot tell you.”
The higher-ups at headquarters are concerned about Qin Chen, and Yao Guang Saint Master naturally couldn’t explain this to the Master of Guang Han Palace.
He shook his head and said, “I didn’t expect you to still be as cold-hearted as ever. During the last trial in the Heavenly Realm, many of the Holy Sons under my command fell. Your Guang Han House must have suffered heavy losses as well. This time, we must join forces, or we might repeat the same mistakes. And that Qin Chen can be considered a fresh force; do you really want him to die here?”
“It’s not that I want him to die here, but this path is one he chose for himself. Everything depends on his own fortune.”
The Master of Guang Han Palace said coldly.
At this moment, Qin Chen had already entered the thirty-three layers of Guang Han Illusion.
Buzz! Originally, this thirty-three layers of Guang Han Illusion Array was the most core forbidden area in the entire Guang Han Palace, a place resembling a paradise, with palatial gardens, stunningly beautiful.
However, as soon as Qin Chen entered, a boundless sea appeared before him, a vast ocean roaring, raising giant waves over a thousand meters high, crashing towards Qin Chen like a mad torrent.
Boom! At this moment, it was as if Qin Chen was standing in a vast cosmic ocean; those giant waves were not mere sea waves but a boundless spiritual wave, enough to annihilate any top-tier expert.
Standing in this void, watching the overwhelming waves approaching, a sense of insignificance welled up deep within Qin Chen.
“So this is the thirty-three layers of Guang Han Illusion?”
“Truly powerful, blurring the line between reality and illusion, even my soul power has been affected…” Qin Chen could clearly feel that the waves before him were vividly alive. If any other mid-stage Heavenly Saint martial artist were to come here, they would probably sink into this world in an instant, directly obliterated by the terrifying illusion.
But Qin Chen, in that brief moment, felt the flow of those waves and understood that it was the illusion operating.
“As long as it’s an array, there’s nothing to fear. General illusions affect the martial artist's soul, causing them to sink into the array, leading to obsession or triggering the upheaval of their Saint Yuan, among other means, to annihilate martial artists. But as long as one's will is firm and one can see through the deception, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Qin Chen gazed at the giant waves before him, not demonstrating his array skills but merely keeping his gaze steady, his heart like a knife, and his will singular, unafraid.
“If the heart is sincere, it can break through all illusions!”
“If the heart is sharp, it can cut through all obstacles!”
Qin Chen's eyes were cold, and then with a bang, he charged towards the giant waves.
With his current soul power, he had already reached a stage of sincere heart, able to maintain absolute calmness at any time. The key was that after practicing the Heavenly Soul Forbidden Technique, his soul power was strong enough to create a soul cage, imprisoning martial artists of the same level.
