After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 300 Spiritual Consciousness
Mo Jiuwei had a very high opinion of the tower.

The array in the stairwell between the first and second floors was just an appetizer; it was nothing special. The person who set up the array didn't even intend to trap anyone with it.

To be honest, it's just a way to discourage people, or it can be seen as a way to mislead them and lower their guard.

The illusion array on the second floor is quite powerful. Some people think they have a strong will, but in reality, they have weaknesses deep down, they just don't realize it.

This illusion array doesn't care whether you're aware of it or not. As long as something exists, even if it's a long-forgotten past or a childhood memory that's unclear, it can bring it all up and turn it into a cage, trapping and holding people there.

Of course, some people become addicted first, then suddenly wake up and are saved from death.

Mo Jiuwei stroked her chin, pondering which type of Senior Sister Chen would be.

But no matter what, she still believed in her senior sister, who would never become the one who was left hanging upside down by the rope, sinking into darkness along with the tower and unable to escape.

Chen Lan seemed frozen in place, holding the luminous stone she had just taken out in her left hand, standing there blankly, motionless.

Moments later, thick black fog surged out of the tower, surrounding the luminous stone and gradually engulfing its light.

Soon, the illuminating stone lost its light, becoming just like an ordinary stone. Chen Lan, too, was plunged from light into darkness.

Just as a rope was about to pierce Chen Lan's ankle, Chen Lan suddenly moved.

With a loosening of his grip, the now-useless luminous stone fell to the ground with a thud.

Then Chen Lan moved her feet slightly, and the rope failed to bind the person, so it was assumed that the person had broken free of the array's control and quietly disappeared underground.

In the darkness, Chen Lan reached out and wiped her face, only to find it covered in tear stains.

She cried, her shoulders trembling, murmuring a name—her daughter's.

Mo Jiuwei, on the contrary, felt relieved.

To be able to confront the love and fear in one's heart and then move on requires immense strength.

[My senior has finally moved on and is able to face her life instead of dwelling on the past and being unable to forgive herself.]

I'm so happy for her!

As if she wanted to cry it all out at once, Chen Lan took advantage of the darkness and the absence of others to vent her reluctance to part with her daughter and her love for her.

The moment the hallucination appeared, she believed it to be real, just like everyone else. She looked at her daughter's face with boundless greed, trying to imitate her appearance with her eyes, and found that she was exactly the same as in her memory.

She allowed herself to talk to her "daughter," hug her, and watch her snuggle into her arms affectionately, calling her "mother."

Everything seemed so real, but Chen Lan had seen through it all the moment before, except for the very first second.

She just wanted to let loose a little and take this opportunity to say goodbye to her daughter one last time.

She wanted to indulge herself because she missed her daughter so much, but she couldn't allow herself to indulge for long, because that would be a defilement of her beloved daughter.

How can a counterfeit item from a fantasy world be compared to a daughter?

So she came out, and even though she felt extremely reluctant, she still resolutely and voluntarily ended the illusion.

Upon hearing Mo Jiuwei's words, Chen Lan couldn't help but smile.

She was happy for herself too.

Chen Lan took out another luminous stone and used its light to see the disciples hanging upside down. She confirmed that they were still breathing, alive, and uninjured, but not yet fully conscious.

After confirming, she ignored them, leaving the seven hanging upside down while she continued upwards. This tower was a location, but also a magical artifact. However, the artifact's owner lay in eternal rest nearby, so it subconsciously concealed itself within it, only occasionally appearing when lonely to attract some cultivators to come and play.

Just like its perverse sense of humor.

Yes, this tower has become sentient and gained sentience.

Its owner was not only a weapon maker, but also a formation master skilled in formations.

That person devoted all his life to this tower, adding whatever treasures he had into it, as if all kinds of spiritual liquids and stones were free.

The abundant spiritual energy ensures that the formation here will never dissipate, and has even given rise to the tower spirit.

Mo Jiuwei is right. If this tower can be brought back to the Immortal Sect, it will be an excellent place for the disciples to hone their willpower. As long as they can overcome the formations here, especially the illusion formations, then it can be said that no illusion in the world can do anything to them anymore.

Illusion arrays have always been known as "killing without leaving a trace" and the most powerful arrays. Other arrays may test knowledge of arrays, but illusion arrays directly test one's mind and are impossible to defend against.

If one is not even afraid of illusion arrays, then one surpasses at least 80% or 90% of the cultivators on the continent.

However, to take this tower away, one would need some skill. At the very least, one would have to pass through all three levels; otherwise, it probably wouldn't even glance at it, let alone take it out of the secret realm.

[Senior sister, be careful, the next challenge won't be easy.]

When Mo Jiuwei saw Chen Lan preparing to go up to the third floor, she couldn't help but worry.

After the illusion array is over, there are other arrays to come!
Will my senior sister be able to pull through...?

"Don't worry, I'll do what I can," Chen Lan said.

After a short while, the luminous stone in his hand stopped working again, and the surroundings remained pitch black.

Chen Lan didn't retrieve any more lighting stones; she simply continued walking forward in the dark.

Touching the wall, she couldn't help but take a deep breath when she saw a step beneath her feet.

If I'm not mistaken, we'll be entering a new formation from these steps—

When Mo Jiuwei saw Chen Lan freeze again, standing motionless with her feet still in the motion of climbing stairs, she knew that Chen Lan had been pulled into the formation again.

This time the wait was exceptionally long, so long that Mo Jiuwei's heart sank.

A moment later, Chen Lan suddenly gasped for breath and quickly retreated until she was below the steps.

"Junior sister, I failed..."

Chen Lan's face flushed red, and her expression was full of frustration.

The array on the steps was very strange. She felt as if she were in a room, and water balls were shooting out from the four walls of the room.

She had to smash each water balloon with her bare hands to pass the test.

If even one water balloon isn't broken, it will spin back and hit her, and the level will restart.

She appears unharmed now, but in reality, she suffered numerous injuries within the formation, and the pain was so intense that even her breathing was affected.

After numerous attempts failed, she finally gave up and had to admit that she was truly incapable.

It's just a pity that we can't bring the tower back with us.
