Chapter 1176 There is a flaw after all
"The details of the illusion... can't hide the flaws after all..." Liu Yang flipped his wrist... The red flames on the ice and fire blades surged... An arc of fire blade slashed towards the zombie...
The fire blades crackled with scorching heat as they sliced through the air... Instantly burning the three zombies to ashes... However... As soon as the flames died down... A dozen more zombies emerged from the end of the street... Some had broken arms... Some had ulcerated abdomens... They dragged their limbs towards Liu Yang... They roared "ho ho"...
"You want to use your numbers to wear me down?" Liu Yang sneered... He injected the demonic power of the Ten Thousand Demons Pearl into his feet... The dark red demonic power condensed at the soles of his feet... making his movements even faster and faster...
He moved through the zombie horde like a ghost... Every swing of his ice and fire blades ignited a flame... The zombies' bodies were quickly carbonized in the flames... Even the ashes were blown away by the scorching air waves...
Just as he finished cleaning up the last zombie... a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him... with a crying tone: "Ayang... I'm so scared..."
Liu Yang froze... It was the voice of Su Qing, his lover from the apocalypse... He slowly turned around... only to see Su Qing standing in front of a convenience store... Her face pale... Her hands tightly gripping the door frame... Inside the convenience store behind her... several zombies were banging against the glass door... The glass was already covered in cracks...
"Ayang... hurry up and save me!" Su Qing stretched out her hand towards him... her eyes were filled with fear... "Just like before... you will definitely be able to save me... right?"
This memory is the deepest pain in Liu Yang's heart... In the third year of the apocalypse... Su Qing was besieged by zombies... He tried his best but failed to save her... In the end, he could only watch her being torn apart by the zombies...
The Su Qing before him was exactly the same as he remembered her... even the strands of hair at her temples were exactly the same... even the fingers she gripped the door frame... the familiar white wall plaster still stained the cracks between her nails...
But Liu Yang quickly calmed down... He remembered that Su Qing was most afraid of the dark... Every time she encountered danger during the apocalypse... she would subconsciously close her eyes... But the Su Qing in front of him... although her eyes were full of fear... she always kept her eyes open;
More importantly... the glass door of the convenience store is clearly transparent... but I can't see the shadow of the zombie behind Su Qing - this is clearly a loophole in the illusion...
"You are not Su Qing..." Liu Yang raised the ice and fire double blades... The flames danced on the blades... "Illusion... Don't use her appearance to deceive me anymore..."
As soon as the words fell... Su Qing's figure suddenly twisted... and turned into a ball of gray mist...
The gray fog spread rapidly...enveloping the entire street...When the fog dissipated...Liu Yang found himself standing on the playground of Qingyang No. 1 Middle School - the playground was crowded with students...some of them were running...some were crying...A few zombies were biting each other in the crowd...blood dyed the green lawn red...Black smoke was rising from the teaching building in the distance...It was the most chaotic scene when the apocalypse broke out...
"Is this the real killer move?" Liu Yang looked around... and understood... The illusion had placed him in the most chaotic situation... just to make him reveal his flaws in the conflict between saving and fighting...
More and more students appeared on the playground... They gathered around Liu Yang... stretched out their hands and cried out, "Senior... save us!" "Kill those zombies!"
Liu Yang wasn't disturbed... Instead, he channeled the dream energy of the Dream Core... Light blue energy flowed through his eyes... allowing him to clearly see the outlines of each "student"—real human beings...
The aura was steady... while the mannequins created by the illusion... their aura fluctuated like flowing water... He quickly discerned... that there were only three real zombies on the playground... the rest of the students were products of the illusion...
"Deal with the real threat first..."
Liu Yang's figure flashed... rushing towards the zombie closest to the crowd... This zombie was wearing a security uniform... its arm was broken... and it was biting a student's neck... Liu Yang thrust out the ice and fire blades simultaneously... Flames flowed along the blades into the zombie's body... The zombie's body instantly ignited... and it let out a shrill roar...
After dealing with the first zombie... Liu Yang ran towards the second zombie... This zombie was a female student... Her hair was disheveled... Blood was dripping from the corner of her mouth... She was chasing a little boy... Liu Yang was about to launch an attack... But he found that the little boy's figure seemed familiar - he was actually himself as a teenager!
"Ayang... run!" my younger self yelled at him... The zombies behind him were already catching up...
Liu Yang's heart skipped a beat... This was the scene when the apocalypse broke out... He was chased by zombies like this... and was finally rescued by a security guard... But he soon realized something was wrong - his younger self... wore a blue school uniform... But the "self" in front of him... wore a black school uniform... This was completely inconsistent with his memory...
"Another trick of the illusion..."
Liu Yang didn't hesitate... The ice and fire blades in his hands slashed out a flaming blade... slicing the zombie and his "young self" into pieces simultaneously... The flaming blade passed through their figures... without encountering any resistance... It was obvious that they were all illusions...
At this moment... a loud bang suddenly came from the teaching building on the east side of the playground... concrete blocks from the roof kept falling... and several huge "mutated zombies" rushed out of the teaching building...
These mutant zombies are twice as tall as regular zombies... their skin is bluish-black... their arms are as thick as barrels... and a single punch can create a massive crater in the ground... They are the powerful monsters that only appeared in the late apocalypse...
"Can illusions actually create mutant zombies?" Liu Yang was slightly surprised... but quickly calmed down... He had killed countless mutant zombies before... and knew their weaknesses well - the mutant zombie's heart was its core... As long as the heart was destroyed... the solution would be easy...
Liu Yang took a deep breath... and injected the Nether Power of the Nether Pearl into the Ice and Fire Twin Blades... The black Nether Power intertwined with the crimson flames... forming a two-colored energy blade...
He rushed towards the mutant zombie... His body was like an arrow shot from a bow, dodging the mutant zombie's fist... The energy blade in his hand stabbed towards the mutant zombie's heart...
With a "puff" sound... the energy blade easily pierced the mutant zombie's heart... The mutant zombie let out a scream... its huge body collapsed to the ground... and turned into a cloud of gray mist... The remaining mutant zombies saw their companions being killed... and roared as they surrounded Liu Yang... Liu Yang did not panic... He used his familiarity with the mutant zombies' attack patterns... and continuously dodged their attacks... while looking for opportunities to launch counterattacks...
Soon... the second mutant zombie also fell under his double blades... Just as he was about to attack the third mutant zombie... a huge vortex suddenly appeared in the middle of the playground...
A large amount of gray fog surged out of the vortex... The gray fog condensed into a huge figure - this figure was made entirely of gray fog... Holding a huge sickle in his hand... There was a strange red light flashing in his eyes... It was the true body of the Lord of Illusions!
"You can actually see through my illusion... It seems you are more difficult to deal with than I thought..." The voice of the Illusion Lord was like countless people whispering in his ear... with a strange magic... "But this is not over yet... I will trap you in the pain of the end of the world forever!"
As soon as he finished speaking... the Illusion Lord swung his massive sickle... and slashed towards Liu Yang... The sickle carried a strong illusionary force... and wherever it passed... the air was distorted... and countless zombies emerged from the sickle's path... and pounced on Liu Yang...
Liu Yang didn't dare to be careless... He extracted all the energy from the Space Pearl, the Nether Pearl, the Ice and Fire Spirit Crystal, the Dream Core, and the Myriad Demons Pearl... and added the fire spiritual power from the Burning Sky Fire Seed...
Six energies rapidly merged before him—transparent spatial force, black netherworld power, crimson hellfire, snow-white icy chill, pale blue dream energy, and dark red demonic power—intertwined together... forming a massive, six-colored energy cannon...
"Break the illusion!" Liu Yang roared... and unleashed a six-colored energy cannon at the Illusion Lord... The energy cannon, with its devastating power... instantly pierced through countless zombie shadows... and flew towards the Illusion Lord...
The Illusion Lord's expression changed drastically... He hadn't expected Liu Yang to be able to condense such a powerful energy... He hurriedly brandished his sickle... releasing a large amount of illusionary power... trying to block the attack of the energy cannon...
However... the power of the six-color energy cannon was too strong... the power of the illusion was like paper before it... it was torn apart in an instant...
"boom--"
The energy cannon struck the Illusion Lord's body... with a deafening roar... the Illusion Lord's body quickly dissipated under the impact of the energy cannon... transforming into countless gray mists...
His unwilling roar echoed through the gray fog: "I won't give up! You clearly have so many flaws...how can you still break my illusion!"
Liu Yang didn't answer... He knew... the real flaw was never in his memory... but in his heart... As long as he kept his original heart... no matter how strong the illusion was, it would be nothing but a mirage...
As the Illusion Lord dissipated... the entire apocalyptic scene began to crumble... the cracked concrete floor shattered into pieces... the chaotic streets and school buildings gradually disappeared... replaced by the sea of clouds...
Liu Yang stood in the sea of clouds... watching the surroundings gradually return to calm... and he breathed a sigh of relief - he had finally broken through the Netherworld Illusionary Realm...
At that moment... a golden light suddenly rose from the center of the sea of clouds... As the light faded... a completely golden bead appeared before Liu Yang—golden lines entwined its surface... emanating pure spiritual energy... It was the "Illusion-Breaking Bead," the reward for clearing the Netherworld Illusion Realm...
This bead not only makes one immune to all illusionary attacks...it also enhances a cultivator's spiritual power...it's an extremely precious treasure...
Liu Yang stepped forward... and put the Illusion-Breaking Pearl into his storage bag... At this moment... Su Qingyao's shadow reappeared in the space... She looked at Liu Yang with eyes filled with shock... and her voice trembled slightly:
"You... you can actually break through the Netherworld Illusionary Realm... Impossible! The next level is the Netherworld Poisonous Miasma Layer... The poisonous miasma there can corrode all spiritual energy... and it's guarded by a Poisonous Miasma Lord with semi-immortal strength... You absolutely can't get through!"
Liu Yang's lips curled up into a smile... He said with a firm look in his eyes, "Even if it's a poisonous miasma that can corrode spiritual power... I can dispel it... The next level... I will continue to move forward..."
