Chapter 197 Spirit Realm
Chapter 197 Spirit Realm
"This illusion is a bit difficult, but it shouldn't have taken this long to resolve."
"Could it be..." Yun Qingrou pondered, "that our illusions were all just tricks, and the real danger lies with Liangmeng?"
“If that’s the case, then we’re in trouble,” Yun Qingyi said.
Then, looking around at the quiet, empty space, he said, "We need to find a way to enter the illusion where Liangmeng is."
"Otherwise, if things aren't resolved on her end, none of the four of us will be able to get out."
Ji Zhaoze looked at the empty space and said helplessly, "That's true, but junior sister, it seems we can't go in anymore."
"There's nothing we can do about it," Yun Qingrou said calmly as she stepped forward.
"Hmm?" Both of them looked at her with some surprise: "Arou, do you have a solution?"
Yun Qingrou smiled gently and took out a shard of mirror from her bosom.
"What is this...?" Yun Qingyi looked at the shard of mirror, puzzled.
Yun Qingrou pinched the shard and said fiercely at it, "Come out now, or I'll crush you!"
"No! Don't crush me!" A crisp voice, like that of a little girl, came from the shards of the mirror.
Suddenly, a pure and lovely figure appeared from the fragments, looking at Yun Qingrou with a frightened expression: "What...what are you going to do?"
Yun Qingyi leaned closer for a few glances and suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this the girl from the mural?"
As if wanting to confirm again, he looked closely at the girl in the mirror and found that her eyebrows and features were indeed almost identical to those in the mural.
When Yun Qingyi asked, Yun Qingrou nodded: "Yes, elder sister, she is the master of this illusion, the little girl in the mural. But after so many years, she has transformed into the spirit of this illusion."
Seeing that Yun Qingyi still had some doubts, he continued, "I just happened to catch her and trap her in this mirror."
Yun Qingyi: "..." Just a coincidence? This is too much of a coincidence.
But she didn't ask what method Yun Qingrou used; she simply said to her, "In that case, let's just have her open the illusion and send us out."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingrou shook her head: "Although I really want to, I'm afraid it's not possible."
"Ok?"
Yun Qingrou squeezed the mirror and said coldly to the spirit inside, "You tell me."
The girl emerged from the fragments, timidly looking at Yun Qingyi and Ji Zhaoze. Finding that the two seemed gentler than Yun Qingrou, she felt less afraid and boldly said, "Dear brothers and sisters, hello."
Yun Qingyi looked at the girl in front of her with some curiosity, and was quite polite: "What do you want to say?"
The girl cleared her throat and began to speak: "I am sorry to have trapped you in this place. It was not my intention to set up this illusion. Although I am a spirit of the realm, I do not have the ability to send you out."
"Huh? What do you mean? The Spirit Realm can't control the Illusion?" Yun Qingyi frowned. "Is that absurd?"
Upon hearing Yun Qingyi's words, Jingling's face flushed red. "This...this...I, I spent a lot of effort to become Jingling, and my current abilities are not enough for me to fully control this illusion."
After saying that, he lowered his head with some guilt, "If I could, I wouldn't have let so many people come in here, and let so many people die here."
Yun Qingyi: "..."
Seemingly incredulous: "Your illusion can actually kill people?"
Jingling nodded: "Brothers and sisters, don't think that the illusion is simple and therefore not dangerous. In this illusion, all four of you must break through the illusion you are in in order to leave."
Moreover, it won't work if there's one more person or one less person entering this illusion.
Only four people can enter this illusion; any extra people will be randomly eliminated.
