Chapter 1264: Illusion
red-browed elder with drooping eyebrows, shot forward like a meteor chasing the moon. It was Chiyun Sang who had been transported from Lanming City to Lishui City with him four years ago, a powerful...“How deep is this Blood Abyss after all” Several people flew for several days, constantly downwards. Although the dangers within the Blood Abyss were extraordinary. Da Zi dragged down their pace of travel, but as a Nascent Soul cultivator, in three days, they descended thousands of miles deep, yet it remained like other parts of the Blood Abyss, with platforms of various sizes, visible continuously, growing various poisonous herbs, shade-loving spirits, and even demonic beasts that had absorbed enough Yin Sha Qi and even demonic Qi.
One may occasionally encounter unusual monsters or ghosts. Even when passing through a certain area, one is bound to encounter powerful and highly skilled demonic creatures, even species that live in groups like the Seven-Star Flying Lice.
However, within this Blood Cave of the Depths, many monsters, or creatures close to demonkind, seem to lack high intelligence. Creatures like the Golden Armored Corpse King and the Yinmoon Demon Eye are merely a few rare exceptions.
"This Netherblood Cave is so deep." Even Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but express his admiration as he looked at the Yin-Yang Limping Demon who had retreated. "You've been in the ancient tomb for a long time, do you know what this Netherblood Cave is all about"

“I’m not sure, even if it were me, the Golden Armor Corpse King, or the Ghost Moon Demon Eye, we wouldn’t be able to fathom it. Besides the entrance we came in through, no one has ever found any other exits from this Blood Cave,” Yin Yang Limping Monster shook his head and then said in a low voice, “Even the location of the Devil Falling Pond isn't fixed. We can only ensure its general direction. Every time the Devil Falling Pond is about to appear, it will emit an astonishing chill. Even Ghost Moon Demon Eye and Golden Armor Corpse King find the Devil Falling Pond based on the changes in the chill. But let me be clear, the chill from this Devil Falling Pond is no trivial matter. Ghost Moon Demon Eye gave me a frost-repelling object. It wouldn't be suitable for both of you. If there aren't any special means, both of you shouldn’t venture close. Once your magical power runs out, even if you are a Nascent Soul cultivator, you won't be able to escape the icy entombment.”
“There’s no need for you to bother with this, just lead the way ahead.” Xiang Qingcheng said softly. She had the Qu Yang Golden Lock on her body, and the power of the Fire Sun protected her body, so she was not afraid of the invasion of this cold air. As for the East, Xiang Qingcheng glanced at Lu Xiaoteng. She knew very well about the spiritual fire in his body. With that spiritual fire protecting him would be enough.
Ah! Before Xiang Qingcheng's words could even finish, a bone-chilling cold swept over her. The yang-locking gold chain within her body flashed with golden light, emitting circles of scorching light. Only then did Xiang Qingcheng's body feel a little warmth.
>
“Such powerful cold!” Xiang Qingcheng’s expression changed. The coldness here couldn't be completely resisted even by the Kui Yang golden lock. Another trace of residual cold air seeped into her body through every pore, and she had to circulate her mana to slowly dispel it.
Lu Xia Tian also had a strange look on his face. The cold air invading his body was extremely ordinary, and he couldn't feel anything unusual about it. It wasn't like the famous cold air from rumors. Lu Xia Tian moved his divine consciousness and mobilized the Fan Luo True Fire within his body to expel the cold air, but he found that the Fan Luo True Fire seemed extremely clumsy against this cold air, and it failed to play its due role in blocking it. Only by running the power of the heart and concentrating it within the meridians could he gradually dissipate the cold air entering his body.
That way, magic power would inevitably be constantly consumed.
>
"This cold is harsher than in previous years, it seems." The Yin-Yang Limping Demon also said with a changed expression. "Would the two of you still like to continue"
>
“Continue!” Lu Xia Tian saw that Xiang Qing Cheng hadn’t shown any discomfort, nodded, and in his hand, a flash of light appeared – a wine pouch. He poured some into his mouth, and immediately, a fiery breath spread with the alcohol, exploding outwards. The magic power within him circulated faster, driving away the remaining chill in his body.
"This Fiery Monkey Wine can lower your mana consumption, dispel the cold within you. Coupled with the Innate Yang treasure within you, this Fiery Monkey Wine should allow your mana recovery to keep pace with your consumption. Want some"
Lu Xia Tian raised the wine pouch in his hand toward Xiang Qing Cheng. The last batch of Fierce Monkey Wine he had made was given to Xiang Kuang, so he quickly brewed another batch afterward, this one larger than before. It was all stored within the Green Fruit Barrier and would not be consumed for a while.
Xiang Qingcheng remained expressionless, neither agreeing nor refusing.
"If you don't speak, I'll take it as agreement. Besides the Sky-Piercing Sword, if you obtain any other treasures, just give me a little share." Lu Xia Tian saw Xiang Qing Cheng's expression and knew she was unwilling to admit defeat. With a smile, he stretched out his hand and waved it. A storage bag filled with several wine gourds flew towards Xiang Qing Cheng.
Xiang Qincheng raised a corner of her lips, didn't say thank you, and directly took over Lu Xiaodong's storage pouch. She felt that the guy in front of her was not as annoying as before. Taking out the Fiery Monkey Wine, she took a light sip, and a powerful spiritual force spread from within her body. That terrifying cold air that had invaded her body was gradually dispelled under the counterattack of this spiritual force, being forced out of her body. However, while expelling the cold air from her body, Xiang Qincheng also felt a hazy drunkenness. However, her primordial spirit was not weak, and with a slight movement of her divine consciousness, she suppressed this hazy drunkenness.
Three people approached the direction of piercing cold, walking for dozens of miles. Suddenly, a powerful attraction came over them. They had little resistance and fell into an ice field. The visibility was much better than in other parts of the Blood-filled Cave. Even without using his True Illusion Ice Pupil, Lu Xia Tian could already see over a thousand zhang.
A thousand feet away, a mountain peak pierces the sky, with a cliff thousands of feet deep, invisible to the bottom. A cold wind howls all around. Even if Lu Xia Tian stayed in such a place, he would feel an unusual chill.

"It seems like we have to pass through this abyss to find the Devil-Slaying Pool," Lu Xia Tian looked around, everywhere was ice sculpture, trees and flowers were covered with a thick layer of crystal clear ice. Occasionally, you could also see hardy creatures, Ice Origin Dates, Linyue Grass, etc.
>
“Not bad. The Demon Slayer Abyss has accumulated a thousand years of cold. There are many paths leading into this ice field, but there is only one way to find the Demon Slayer Abyss,” Yin Yang Limping Monster nodded. “There are layers upon layers of illusions outside the Demon Slayer Platform. What you see before your eyes may not be real, nor necessarily false; it exists somewhere between truth and illusion.”
This is a test.
With a thunderous boom, amidst the conversation, that towering mountain peak collapsed with a deafening roar, pressing down on Lu Xia Tian and his companions.
The mountain peak collapsed, the glaciers cracked, creating a scene of utter devastation, as if the heavens and earth were crumbling. Lu Xia Tian and Xiang Qing Cheng, along with their companion, hastily flew forward to escape.
It was just the collapsed mountain peaks, countless glacial debris falling to the ground silently, not even the ice veins and other spirits on the ground were slightly injured.
“This illusion is so realistic.” Lu Xia Tian’s face was full of surprise. At this time, he had naturally reacted, and the towering mountain peak just now was not a physical entity, but a product of an illusion.
"It truly feels like you're right there. If not for the last moment those stones fell, we wouldn't have been able to tell." Xiang Qingcheng shook her head with a wry smile. She had never encountered such a powerful illusion before.
