After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 396 Resolving the Calamity
Ignoring the greedy black cat, Li Musheng moved swiftly and arrived above Qingxuan Temple.

He glanced around and saw that the Grand Palace Master of the Moon Invitation Palace and the Thief Saint Bai Wuying, who had not yet left, were both unsurprised to have been caught off guard.

Wen Yue, the Grand Mistress of Yaoyue Palace, had unfocused and lifeless eyes, but a smile appeared on her face, and she kept calling out her sister's name.

Clearly, the illusion the other party was trapped in must be related to his sister, but the specific details are unknown to outsiders.

Meanwhile, the legendary thief Bai Wuying was also trapped in an illusion. Although his martial arts cultivation was not weak, he was still unable to escape it and seemed to be in a very deep slump.

Bai Wuying was laughing heartily, one hand hanging down with a loose grip, while the other hand seemed to be grabbing something and repeatedly slapping it hard into the air.

"You little devil, you dare to covet my daughter? You didn't expect that, did you? I broke through in battle and have now reached the Martial God realm."

"So what if you have amazing lightness skills? So what if you've absorbed so much demonic cultivation? Just watch how I beat you to a pulp, hahaha..."

Thief Saint Bai Wuying's unrestrained laughter echoed through the night sky as he gripped a wisp of air and lashed it even harder.

Upon seeing this, Li Musheng narrowed his eyes slightly. He had a feeling that this guy's illusion was related to him.

However, although Li Musheng could use the Great Dream of a Thousand Autumns to trap people in an illusion from which they could not extricate themselves, he could not know what was happening in the illusion.

"Of course, it's not impossible. If we combine the Soul Searching Technique with the rare treasure Meng Qianqiu, we might be able to find out what happened to these people in the illusion."

Li Musheng stroked his chin, but he had no intention of prying into other people's illusions.

With this in mind, Li Musheng withdrew his gaze from Bai Wuying, the Thief Saint.

He then casually grabbed the jade pillow, which was emitting a seven-colored halo and floating in mid-air, into his hand.

When he first activated the Great Dream of a Thousand Autumns, the illusion created by the Dream of a Thousand Autumns would likely cover the entire capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty and last for about an hour.

During this period, as long as he does not take the jade pillow out of Tai Xuan City, or actively restrains the power of the Meng Qianqiu treasure, these people will not wake up from the illusion.

This means that everyone in Tai Xuan City is now trapped in an illusion.

To confirm this, Li Musheng vanished from his original spot and arrived at some streets and alleys in Tai Xuan City. After roughly checking the situation of some of the people, he confirmed that everyone in the city had fallen into an illusion.

Within an hour, Tai Xuan City had undoubtedly become a true city of the living dead.

This confirmed to Li Musheng that the extraordinary treasure inherited from the ancient family was indeed something special, especially since it possessed area-of-effect (AOE) control capabilities.

Just think, with a single extraordinary treasure like Meng Qianqiu, one could control everyone in a city and paralyze the entire city.

Moreover, from ordinary people to martial arts masters like Bai Wuying, no one could escape its power, which is enough to demonstrate how formidable this thing is.

Of course, this is because Li Musheng's martial arts cultivation has reached its peak. If it were anyone else, they would not be able to cover the entire capital.

Even if Qingyu Daoist had not had his cultivation destroyed and had absorbed the demonic cultivation left behind by the Demonic Ancestor, his strength was already at its limit if he could drive Meng Qianqiu to cover an area of ​​one mile.

It is important to know that a thousand years ago, the Meng clan and two other ancient families faced the contemporary martial god invited by the Great Qi Dynasty.

Only when a master within the family who had reached the "half-step Martial God" realm personally commanded Meng Qianqiu could they resist the invasion from the Martial God.

"Although this thing isn't very useful to me, it could play an unimaginable role if used at the right time." Li Musheng glanced at the jade pillow in his hand. Although this rare treasure was powerful, it was still somewhat of a waste to him.

Moreover, this thing is also a problem, as it involves two ancient families.

After a moment's thought, Li Musheng shook his head:

"Forget it, let's keep it. It's not a good thing to let something like this wander around."

In the end, Li Musheng decided to accept the rare treasure for the time being.

Although he might incur the wrath of two ancient families, if they didn't know what was good for them, he would have no choice but to reluctantly take the family heirlooms of the other two families as well.

"While there's still time, let's resolve the matter of the Great Xuan Emperor. This threat can't be allowed to linger any longer."

At this moment, Li Musheng, who had retrieved "Dream of a Thousand Autumns", turned his head and glanced in the direction of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace. The next moment, he disappeared from the sky above Qingxuan Temple.

……

In the Da Xuan Imperial Palace, an unassuming palace, the light from seven ancient bronze lamps illuminated the entire palace.

Within this palace, which was devoid of any luxurious decorations, were three figures, some sitting and some standing.

One of them was Zhao Kuang, who was wearing a dragon robe, another was the majestic Emperor of Da Xuan, and the last one was a withered old man with a full head of white hair.

An old man with white hair and a withered appearance sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, with the Emperor of Da Xuan sitting below him, while Zhao Kuang stood in front of the two.

However, at this moment, all three of them had lifeless eyes, with only different expressions on their faces, such as surprise or laughter.

Before long, Li Musheng's figure appeared silently and slowly in the palace.

Then, his gaze fell on the Great Xuan Emperor, and he narrowed his eyes slightly:
"It turns out that the Great Xuan Emperor in the underground passage was also a puppet; his true body had always been hidden in the Great Xuan Imperial Palace."

Combining the Soul Searching Technique and the Formless Puppet Technique, Li Musheng naturally knew at a glance that the person before him was undoubtedly the true form of the Great Xuan Emperor.

However, Li Musheng did not kill the Great Xuan Emperor directly, but instead activated the jade pillow to wake the three people in front of him from the illusion.

Soon, the expressions in the eyes of the three, including the withered old man, quickly returned. However, although the three were conscious, they were completely unable to move.

The white-haired, withered old man seemed to realize what had happened. His cloudy eyes immediately turned to Li Musheng in the main hall, and he asked:
"Who are you?"

At this moment, Emperor Da Xuan and Zhao Kuang also saw Li Musheng, who had suddenly appeared.

“He is the eighth prince of Dali. He is the one who just devoured all of my cultivation.”

The Great Xuan Emperor spoke with a furious expression, his eyes fixed on Li Musheng, and said:
"We beg our ancestor to take action and kill this man!"

Zhao Kuang, who was standing there, had an uncertain look in his eyes, clearly not knowing why Li Musheng had come here.
His mind was still stuck in the dream he had just had, and he had no idea what had happened.
"Shut up!"

At this moment, the white-haired, withered old man roared at the Great Xuan Emperor. He was unable to move at all, so how could he possibly deal with Li Musheng in front of him?
