Chapter 281 You are always like this
They had just worked together to repel the seemingly endless attack, and everyone had a tired but determined smile on their face.
Sweat and dust were intertwined, but they could not cover up the light of hope that was rekindled in their eyes. During the short rest, they supported each other and simply treated the scars on their bodies. The tacit understanding and tenacity made their hearts more closely connected.
However, fate always seems to change at the most unexpected moments.
When they set out on their journey again, ready to meet the unknown challenges ahead, they never expected that the real test had just begun.
The scene around them changed quietly. It was no longer the smoke-filled battlefield, but the most secret and complex fantasy in the depths of each person's heart.
In this world born from the heart, everyone faces his or her greatest fear, regret or desire.
In the viewing area outside, the atmosphere was even more tense and heated.
Some contestants were glad they were not selected.
Some elders of the sect also regretted that they forgot to bring this or that for their disciples.
The competition situation will be displayed in real time through the viewing stone, without missing a single detail, which is equivalent to a form of live broadcast.
Some people also kept detailed records of everything that happened in the illusion in order to prepare for the next battle next year.
A slight discussion sounded quietly in the silence. Ling Zun and Xingzhi Shenjun stood on a high place, overlooking everything, their eyes were full of amazement and praise.
"It's amazing!"
An old man watching the battle stroked his beard, with a voice full of surprise that was hard to conceal.
"Look, those seven people have each created their own world. In their world, they are the only bright light, and everything around them is as ethereal as smoke. The phantoms formed by the crows are actually the key to opening the illusion!"
"yes,"
Another young woman echoed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"I was wondering why those crows would attack them so concentratedly before. It turns out that this is part of the trial in the illusion. Not only do they have to face the test of their inner selves, but they also have to find a way out in this 'illusion within an illusion'. This difficulty is much higher than a simple melee battle!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Zun smiled slightly. That smile showed both his expectations for his disciples and his pride in the ingenious design of this trial.
"As you can see, this is the uniqueness of the 'illusion within an illusion'. It is not only a test of strength, but also an ultimate challenge to the mind, will and wisdom. Only practitioners who can truly see into their own hearts and overcome their inner demons, while at the same time being able to keenly perceive changes in the outside world and use everything available, can find their own path in this world where illusion and reality are intertwined."
Xingzhi Shenjun also nodded in agreement, his voice gentle and profound:
"Yes, everyone has a unique world in their heart, and the truly strong can not only stand on their own in their own world, but also remain sober and firm in the ever-changing world. This trial opens a door to a higher realm for them."
Following the explanations of the two venerables, the crowd watching the battle erupted in discussion, and everyone was amazed at the ingenious design and far-reaching significance of this trial.
Amidst all the discussions, the seven practitioners in the illusion were each experiencing unprecedented challenges and transformations.
In some illusions, painful memories of the death of a loved one keep replaying;
Some are faced with irreparable mistakes, with endless self-blame and regret in their hearts;
Others are consumed by endless desire and caught in a mad pursuit.
In the outside world, Ling Zun and Xingzhi Shenjun quietly observed all this, their eyes full of deep meaning and expectation. Ling Zun stroked his long beard and said slowly:
“True experience does not lie in how powerful the external enemy is, but in the inner practice and growth. Only by defeating yourself can you become a truly strong person.”
The God of Action nodded in agreement, his voice gentle but firm:
"Yes, the real challenge is never a physical fight, but a psychological battle. In this fantasy world, they will learn how to face their own weaknesses, how to overcome their inner fears and desires, and ultimately achieve spiritual sublimation."
As the two venerables talked, an invisible force seemed to be silently guiding everyone in the illusion.
In the depths of the illusion, the seven of them seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, and finally gathered in front of a magnificent golden door. The door exuded a dazzling light, as if it was the entrance to another world, and behind the door was a magnificent palace beyond imagination, which made people yearn for it but also a little uneasy.
As the pioneers of the team, Dianwu and Lei Zhen, brother and sister, naturally walked to the front.
Dian Wu's eyes were full of curiosity and determination, and she couldn't wait to explore the secrets behind the door. However, Lei Zhen seemed extremely hesitant and even started to get upset, determined not to step into that unknown world.
"Brother, we have finally come here, we can't just give up like this!"
Dian Wu tried to persuade him anxiously, but Lei Zhen became more and more agitated. The argument between the two gradually escalated, and inadvertently, those old memories buried deep in their hearts were turned up one by one - about the possible favoritism of their parents, and about the countless small misunderstandings and resentments between the siblings.
"You are always like this. Everything good is yours, and I am the forgotten one!"
Lei Zhen's voice was full of grievance and anger, and his eyes flashed with complex emotions.
Dianwu felt mixed emotions when she heard this. Years of resentment seemed to have found an outlet at this moment. She was so impulsive that she punched Lei Zhen. It was the most intense reaction she had ever had.
But after the fight, Dianwu immediately realized her gaffe. She was stunned, with a trace of regret and reluctance in her eyes.
However, at this moment, the golden gate seemed to sense her determination and courage, and slowly opened a gap.
Dian Wu did not hesitate. She took a deep breath and resolutely stepped into the shining golden door, leaving all the disputes and past behind her outside the door.
The world behind the door is even more colorful. The palace seems to be carved from the most precious gems in the world, and every brick and tile exudes a charming luster.
With a gentle smile on her face, the palace maid led the electric dance through the palace corridors. Every step seemed to be on the clouds, light and dreamy.
She whispered to Dianwu that the people she was about to meet were her real father and mother, who were the supreme beings in this land, and Dianwu was the pearl they had been searching for for many years.
Dianwu's eyes were full of excitement and curiosity. She seemed to be in a brand new world where all the rules and common sense were redefined. She couldn't help but ask about the emperor, especially the treasures that shone with alluring light:
"Then does our Emperor have a lot of silver, jewels and jade?" In Dianwu's heart, these are not only symbols of wealth, but also her vision of infinite possibilities for the future.
