My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 349 The Illusory Demon Lord
"Om~"

The enormous cyan scroll underwent a subtle change at that moment.

The scroll, which originally gave people a sense of endless vitality, has now turned scarlet.

Master Xu stared solemnly at the red scroll.

Zeng Shilin also suddenly stood up, staring intently at Master Xu:
“You never told me this would happen.”

"I used the power of my righteous spirit to expend my divine soul to inject into your formation, which gave me the opportunity to deduce information about the demon race."

"Now you're telling me this formation is beyond your control?"

"Hey, Xu, what exactly do you want?"

Zeng Shilin's voice was extremely gloomy.

Master Xu did not answer this question.

He kept his eyes glued to the huge red scroll.

And at this moment.

The sky within the illusion array also changed.

What was originally normal weather has now turned into a sandstorm.

A crimson mist enveloped the entire scene within the illusion array.

Within the crimson mist, a faint laugh rang out.

"Jie Jie~"

That voice... seemed to be within an illusion.

However, Zeng Shilin's expression changed.

"who?!"

He stared intently at the blue scroll.

"The Deceptive Demon Lord".

Master Xu's voice slowly rang out.

He stared at the scarlet scroll in front of him.

Hear the name.

Zeng Shilin's brows were furrowed tightly.

Humanity still knows too little about the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.

At least he had never heard of that name before.

"who is it?"

Zeng Shilin looked at Master Xu.

"First-rank Demon Emperor, third-rank Great Demon King, and between Great Demon King and Demon Emperor, there is another realm."

Master Xu said in a deep voice:

"Within the demon race, he is known as a second-rank demon lord."

"The head of our human race is called the Sovereign, so the title of Sovereign has never been recognized by our human race."

“That’s not what I want to hear,” Zeng Shilin said, his brows furrowing.

He glanced at Master Xu subconsciously.

I have a feeling that Master Xu is acting a bit strange today.

But he couldn't say exactly where it was.

"I don't know the exact number of third-grade and fourth-grade demon kings in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain."

"However, the number of second-rank demon lords can be traced according to ancient records."

"The only one who can break my illusion array is the legendary Demon Lord of Illusion."

Master Xu's voice carried a hint of something inexplicable:
"The False Demon Lord was born in the realm of illusion and reality within the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain. He was born with extremely strong divine power and is an anomaly among the demon race, possessing the ability to perceive danger and reality."

"So you mean it figured out our intention to obtain information about Ten Thousand Demon Mountain through the illusion array, and then intervened using illusory power to cause sabotage?"

Zeng Shilin was very perceptive.

A second-rank demon lord...

He believed he had already shown the demon race the utmost importance, and his goal was not arrogant; he simply wanted to conquer the southern mountains of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain as a stepping stone for the human race.

Unexpectedly, this was only in the initial stage, yet it could be discerned.

"Hmm, we underestimated the power of the demon race."

A serious expression flashed across Master Xu's brows as he said in a deep voice:

"He dares not touch your Confucian and Taoist righteousness, which means that the deduction of the illusion array will continue."

"But my control over the illusion array has been severed."

Zeng Shilin was somewhat taken aback and stared at Master Xu, asking:
"He can cut you off??"

"You are a First-Rank Celestial Master!"

"A mere second-rank demon lord..." A bitter smile appeared on Master Xu's face. He glanced at Zeng Shilin and shook his head.
"If it is truly a false demon lord, then I really have no way to deal with it."

"The origin of the illusion array is the word 'illusion'."

“And the path of ‘illusion’ is the origin of the illusory demon lord.”

"In other words, your mediocre skills have run into the grandmaster of illusions..."

Zeng Shilin pondered for a moment, then looked solemnly at Master Xu:
"What countermeasures are there?"

Master Xu turned his gaze back to the huge scroll.

The scroll was now completely obscured by the red mist.

They could no longer see what happened inside.

“If what you say is true, then the Confucian cultivators in this illusion array will definitely be in danger. The Demon Lord of Illusion will not let them leave the illusion array alive and reveal any information about the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain to us.”

As Zeng Shilin said this, his heart sank slightly.

He really hadn't expected this sudden situation.

"I can only use this last resort to restore the memories that were blocked in the illusion array for these Confucian scholars, and then inform them of the situation."

"But how they can save themselves from this... that's up to them."

Master Xu remained silent for a while before offering a solution that was hardly a solution at all.

"A second-rank demon lord, how could this group possibly withstand him?!"

Zeng Shilin was furious, and his eyes flashed with an extremely violent rage:

"You surnamed Xu, if my son suffers any problems in your shabby formation, it won't be me coming to you for an explanation, it will be my master!"

What Zeng Shilin can bring up now is his Confucian master, who is far away in the Eastern Region.

Master Xu remained silent, waving his hand repeatedly as he channeled spiritual energy into the enormous red scroll.

……

Within the illusion array.

Everything started to get weird.

"Where...am I supposed to be taking the imperial examinations?"

Liu Xian's face froze for a moment, then she looked up blankly at her surroundings.

The mountains were now shrouded in an endless red mist.

"The imperial examination in spring??"

Zeng Anmin, who was standing to the side, was startled, and then suddenly looked up at Liu Xian.

I was horrified.

He can also recover his memories within the illusion array?!
what's the situation? !

"Hmm? Isn't this the place within the Spring Examination Illusion Array?"

Liu Xian looked around and was completely dumbfounded when she realized she was still inside the illusion array:

"Isn't the illusion array supposed to block memories? How did I recover them??"

His voice sounded bewildered.

Then he looked at Zeng Anmin and asked, "Brother Quanfu, how are you feeling now?"

Zeng Anmin was filled with horror at this moment.

what is happening?
"The illusion array for this year's imperial examination was invaded by the Demon Lord of Illusion using the power of the illusory origin."

"You should not make a sound. The people in the illusion array do not know that they are illusions created by the illusion array. If they find out, the consequences will be very complicated."

An old voice sounded.

All the Confucian cultivators who participated in the illusion array were completely dumbfounded.

They instinctively looked up at each other.

"Did you hear that too?"

"It's Master Xu's voice..."

"This……"

……

"So we're still in the illusion array, but it's no longer the illusion array controlled by Master Xu."

Zeng Anmin spoke with an extremely solemn expression.

He naturally heard the voice as well, and he suddenly looked up at all the Confucian scholars in his Mandarin Duck Army.

The Confucian scholars' eyes were filled with astonishment and panic...

At this time, among this army of ten thousand, there were one hundred and three Confucian scholars who were also participating in the assessment.

The Confucian scholars exchanged glances.

Everyone looked extremely pale.
