HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 315 The Ancestral Dragon Treasury
Li Yu and the others searched the vast starry sky for several days before they discovered the spectral Nether Cloud Void.
In the Nether Cloud Void, the air was covered by layers of fog, causing one's vision to become extremely blurry. It was not only blurry, but even one's divine sense was blurred.
The thin fog seemed to give everyone with normal vision an inexplicable sense of dizziness after wearing high-intensity farsightedness glasses.
There was no heaven or earth here, nor was there any gravity. The operation of the powers of heaven and earth was constantly changing.
Therefore, entering it was even more frightening than being in the vast starry sky. There was no reference point at all as if there was a sky direction and any direction was ahead.
It is easy to get lost in it and not find where it came from.
Of course, the Heart of Heaven and Earth Li Yu could still feel the deeper circulation of the laws. He could understand several meridians and not get lost.
Furthermore, they had Zhong Yu as their guide.
However, the moment they entered Nether Cloud Void, Zhong Yu looked around and suddenly said, “Nether Cloud Void has entered the Illusory Cloud Stage!”
No one knew Nether Cloud Void better than Zhong Yu.
"What do you mean?" Li Yu looked at Zhong Yu.
Zhong Yu immediately explained, “Nether Cloud Void is filled with many Ghost Clouds that look no different from ordinary clouds.”
“Awlant Ghosts are unpredictable. They can suddenly appear anywhere, or suddenly just disappear. No one could feel their tracks before.
......
"This Ghost Cloud is divided into four distinct periods."
“The first period is the regular Nether Cloud Stage. At this time, some of these Ghost Clouds would turn into fire clouds, some into lightning clouds, some into ice clouds, some into wind clouds, some into poisonous clouds, etc.
“Awlant Ghosts will often be active during this period, and their offensive power is very frightening.”
“However, Ghost Clouds in this period can be traced. It's usually easier to feel first and not let your guard down.
“The second period is Confusion Cloud period. Right now, the Ghost Clouds would all turn into Confusion Clouds that possessed an extremely powerful fainting power. During this period, they will not be too active, but they will be no different from ordinary clouds and fog, and it will be difficult to know whether it is real or fake.”
“Once you enter the fog by accident, you will be asleep forever. Sister Mi Lu had once fallen into a fog and slept for so many years!”
“Illus Cloud Stage is similar to Mystic Cloud Stage. However, during the Illusory Cloud Stage, all the fog and Ghost Clouds here would produce an extremely powerful illusory effect. It will even turn into an illusion that is impossible to distinguish between a serious and a fake.”
“Once someone falls into the Illusory Cloud, they will be trapped in the illusion. In the end, their consciousness would fall into an illusion and they would never be able to escape.”
“The fourth period is the most dangerous period for outsiders, the Cloud Devouring Stage. However, it rarely appears.”
“Currently, Ghost Clouds will produce a terrifying devouring power. All matter, magic power, vitality, soul, and other tangible and invisible things will be devoured.”
“Of course, they just gobble up foreign objects. Living things and things that are here will not be eaten.”
“During the Illusory Cloud Era, other than this illusionary Ghost Cloud, there was another threat in Nether Cloud Void. It was a Soul Eating creature that lived with Ghost Clouds. They would attack one's soul without being noticed by anyone and slowly devour the soul while releasing the power of illusion!”
“In addition to the above threats, the rest are sentient beings in Nether Cloud Void!”
Zhong Yu's words did not make anyone nervous as they were well aware that with Li Yu around, no matter if it was Mystic Cloud, Illusory Cloud, or Devouring Cloud, everything was a cloud.
Furthermore, there was Zhong Yu, the guide who was very familiar with this place. They naturally have nothing to worry about.
The one to be afraid of was the original creature in Nether Cloud Void.
“Of course, there are not only clouds in Nether Cloud Void. There were also many floating mountains, earth, and so on. It's just that they keep moving.” Zhong Yu continued to introduce Nether Cloud Void to everyone.
As they spoke, everyone had flown into the depths of the Nether Cloud Void.
Although they were not afraid of these Illusory Clouds, they did not lower their vigilance. They used their abilities or magic treasures to block the disturbance of the fog.
Furthermore, they only controlled their gaze to a ten foot radius according to Zhong Yu's instructions.
Illusion of fog not through contact but through special sight and light. If one looks into the distance for a long time, it is easy to hallucinate.
However, as long as he kept his gaze within ten feet, it could easily be avoided.
If they were to truly meet Illusory Cloud, they would have no choice but to rely on their own abilities.
Li Yu had three goals for this trip. One was to find the Ancestral Dragon treasure, and the other was to find Emperor Yu Mountain.
Finding the Ancestral Dragon treasure was not difficult for him. He could find it as long as he followed the guidance of the system. However, it might take some time to find Emperor Yu Mountain.
His final goal was to help Great Immortal Mi Lu find Immortal Lu Chi, although there was a high chance it would be useless.
In fact, Li Yu did not plan to bring along Great Immortal Mi Lu. After all, this trip is not safe. However, he knelt down and begged, hoping to find Immortal Lu Chi in Nether Cloud Void.
Moreover, Zhong Yu begged him and promised Li Yu that he would take care of Great Immortal Mi Lu himself.
Therefore, Li Yu agreed.
Of course, it was mainly because Li Yu was moved by affection and hoped that Great Immortal Mi Lu could have a good ending.
If Immortal Lu Chi was still alive, they might be able to find him. This would be a form of payment for the Misty Immortal Island belonging to Great Immortal Mi Lu.
Everyone flies together. They had the Heaven and Earth Heart of Li Yu and the Primordial Origin True Body. Zhong Yu, local guide, Murong Xingqiao Eye of Truth, and Tai Ri third eye.
It was easy for them to dodge that strange illusory cloud and sneak off unhindered.
However, many people from the Eternal Realm who entered to find the caves were not so lucky.
Many people are plagued by illusions. Some fight with the air, talk to the clouds, or go around in circles on the spot.
There are even serious cases of peers killing each other.
Along the way, Li Yu and the others saw various strange and mysterious people.
Li Yu allowed those who did not hurt him or others to do as they pleased. After all, he could not control them.
As for those who had fallen into the Illusory Cloud and completely fallen into the illusion, even treating their friends as enemies and monsters that killed each other, Li Yu still chose to help.
After all, it was not difficult to dispel the illusions of those people. He only needed to use the power of the Primordial Origin True Body.
Bang out! Bang out! Bang out!
The collision of enormous magic power stirred up the entire void, but the illusory cloud was completely unaffected. They did not move at all, let alone being dispersed by the shock wave of magic power.
Over ten people from the Eternal Realm fought fiercely with words coming out of their mouths as if they were facing a terrifying monster chase.
......
Li Yu was unable to see the illusions they saw because Illusory Cloud might have a different effect on each person.
He had faced this situation more than once along the way. The power of the Primordial Origin True Body instantly swept out, and all of the divine power and spells instantly disappeared.
All illusions disappear as silence reigns.
The immortal people who had killed each other regained consciousness. Their eyes were filled with confusion at first, and then they looked at their injured comrade and Li Yu's figure. They immediately cupped their hands and thanked him. “Thank you for saving us, Cultivator Li!”
However, they did not know that they had killed their comrade. They thought the monster they saw was responsible and Li Yu had eliminated the monster and saved them.
Only after Li Yu told them the truth were they shocked and filled with sadness.
“Do not look too far. Be careful if you find any abnormalities. Beware of the illusion of the enemy!” Li Yu reminded them for a while before leading everyone forward.
After all, he couldn't bring all these people. He has no responsibility or obligation. Besides, he wasn't here to save those people.
He was kind enough to remind them that there were illusions everywhere.
As for whether they could survive in Nether Cloud Void, it depended on their luck.
If they could not learn to overcome that illusion and escape from that illusion, sooner or later they would still die here.
Following the guidance of the system, Li Yu and the others flew for an unknown period of time. There was almost no concept of time here, but Li Yu clearly remembered that the power of heaven and earth had changed by 10,056 times.
They had met and managed to evade over 3000 Illusory Clouds and over 9000 people from the Eternal Realm.
During this period, they faced two attacks from the creatures in Nether Cloud Void, but they did not escape Li Yu's sword.
Eventually, Li Yu and the others managed to arrive at their destination. It was a gigantic meteorite that looked like a small planet floating in the Nether Cloud Void.
Getting close to it makes people feel small. The surface of this meteorite was filled with countless holes.
Li Yu did not know how this hole was formed, but the Ancestral Dragon Treasury should have been in this gigantic meteorite, or rather, the entrance to the Ancestral Dragon Treasury was in this meteorite.
However, the system guide was unable to tell him which hole he should enter from.
Therefore, Li Yu was momentarily confused.
"Sir, what is this?" Changjiang No. 7 jumped onto Li Yu's shoulder and said, “Gosh, there are so many holes!”
Tai Ri activated her third eye and carefully observed the hole. For a moment, he was helpless. There was a powerful domain within this hole, and he could not see any clues.
He could only rule out a portion of the hole that was clearly a dead end.
“Should we split?” ask Ritian.
Li Yu was silent for a moment, wondering if he should split this meteorite with a single strike. However, this meteorite was definitely not an ordinary stone, and was filled with powerful magic power fluctuations.
If he were to forcefully break through, he might destroy the Ancestral Dragon Treasury, so he gave up on this idea.
"Oh yeah!" Li Yu raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of the little dragon that materialized from the Ancestral Dragon skull.
Since this was the treasure of the Ancestral Dragon, the Little Ancestral Dragon might know something.
Currently, the little boy was living on Misty Immortal Island and was friends with the Azure Dragon Vine.
Thinking of this, Li Yu immediately called out to him.
When it came out, this person was hugging and gnawing at the vine that was many times thicker than him.
Li Yu saw it. It seemed that it was the Azure Dragon Vine…
The little dragon had grown significantly and was nearly ten feet long. However, compared to the true size of the Ancestral Dragon, it was still similar to an earthworm.
After being summoned by Li Yu, Little Ancestral Dragon's gaze was instantly attracted by the giant meteorite in front of him. Then, his eyes widened and brightened.
“This is the treasure of the Ancestral Dragon. Do you feel anything?” Li Yu asked.
"Intense calling!" The Little Ancestral Dragon spoke in human language.
It was formed from a portion of the Ancestral Dragon Soul Essence. Although his memory was incomplete, he did not forget anything. Therefore, when he saw this meteorite, he seemed to think of something.
At the same time, he felt a summoning from within. It was the summoning of his ancestor.
"Good, take me in!" Li Yu said with a smile. He guessed correctly. This Little Ancestral Dragon could indeed become a new guide.
The Little Ancestral Dragon did not say anything more and directly flew into one of the holes. Li Yu and the others immediately followed.
The cave is a deep tunnel. Shortly thereafter, T-junction after T-junction appeared. If not for the Little Ancestral Dragon taking the lead, he would not have known where to go.
Moreover, the strange domain within the cave hindered the detection of all divine senses. There was also a strong pressure that made everyone feel as if they were in the deep sea, making it difficult to breathe.
After quite some time, everyone finally arrived inside the meteorite under the lead of the Little Ancestral Dragon.
It was a huge round space with a gigantic altar floating in the center. The nine Ancestral Dragon statues were entrenched around the altar.
'There we go!' Li Yu thought.
It seemed that this altar was the entrance to the Ancestral Dragon Treasury.
In that case, the Ancestral Dragon Treasury might be in an independent space, just like Misty Immortal Island.
This altar was the same as the Eternal Palace of Mi Lu.
Li Yu carefully observed the several dragons around the altar. They had different expressions and were engraved with different totems corresponding to the Eight Division Pagoda.
The Little Ancestral Dragon flew straight to the altar. Immediately, the entire altar seemed to feel something and shook. A circle of light appeared on the nine Ancestral Dragon statues.
"The Eight Division Pagoda is gone!" The Little Ancestral Dragon suddenly said. It just remembered something.
Li Yu flew over and waved his hand, summoning the Eight Division Pagoda.
Immediately, the nine Ancestral Dragon statues around him seemed to sense something. It was as if they were awakening, they were actually moving. Then, they roared in unison and shot light pillars from their mouths into the Eight Division Pagoda.
It's thundering!
The entire altar shook as a gigantic totem rose from the altar and enveloped Li Yu and the Little Ancestral Dragon.
The totem light became even more dazzling, and immediately hid it completely.
The next second, the light suddenly shrank and finally disappeared as a white dot.
Li Yu and the Little Ancestral Dragon also disappeared.
However, the moment they disappeared, a gigantic eye suddenly opened in that gigantic meteorite.
…
