Song Wuji narrowed his eyes, engaging with these monsters while gathering information and deducing the flaws in the Mirage Dragon Illusion.

These monsters, empowered by the Mirage Dragon, all possessed seventh-grade strength, but their use of supernatural abilities always carried a hint of awkwardness. This convinced Song Wuji that they were not being bound or controlled by the Mirage Dragon, but rather that it was purely an illusion.

After all, supernatural powers are formed from the laws of heaven and earth. Even if one cultivates a fake to achieve true immortality, it is already quite remarkable if one can conjure up seven or eight parts similarity.

"Generally speaking, illusions have a medium."

"The most common type is the one that resembles the moon in the water or a flower in a mirror."

“This mirage dragon belongs to the water element, so its medium must be water.”

Song Wuji thought to himself, "It's a pity he's disguised, preventing me from seeing his real name. Otherwise, I could try to subdue him using the Evil Jar."

He dodged Cang Xuan's White Tiger Star God Slash, and with a light leap, flung the Rakshasa Ghost Hand behind him.

Xiao Pusa's massive handprint swept across the sky, but Song Wuji merely dodged it, refraining from making any rash moves or engaging in direct combat with them.

This mirage dragon has the ability to easily replicate its own skills, but it cannot act recklessly. If it were to create another version of itself, it would be even more difficult to escape.

At the exit of the secret realm, the mirage dragon had already escaped. Now, all he wanted was freedom, and he had no desire to fight Song Wuji to the death.

But just as they were about to escape...

A silver shuttle blocked the exit of the secret realm, turning it into a net that stretched across the heavens and earth.

The Weaver Girl has regained her physical body, but also her spiritual consciousness.

Although it has become severely corrupted, placing it in the place of humane law and authority in Taichang City is enough to suppress its corruption and distortion.

The distortion itself is relatively easy to address; the difficult problem lies in the causal poison that is entangled with it.

Therefore, the Weaver Girl in the Heavenly Net is not fixated on returning to her physical body, but rather tries to refine her physical body into a divine statue.

However, he still managed to outmaneuver Song Wuji, and didn't reveal the whole story, fearing he might scare away this "fish that had been caught in the net."

"The Kitchen God... is ultimately not up to the task, and I'm afraid he is not up to the task and still needs to be tempered."

The Weaver Girl manipulates the threads of cause and effect, as if everything is within her calculations.

Upon seeing the inescapable net, the mirage dragon cursed loudly. He had thought he had succeeded in his scheme, but it turned out he had been outsmarted.

"It seems that only by possessing Song Wuji's body can we leave the secret realm."

Although the Mirage Dragon said it would replace Song Wuji, it was just a deceptive statement. It belongs to the Water element and is in charge of the Water-Moon Illusion Way, which can transform the false into the real. However, its evil nature is hard to eradicate. It has never comprehended the Great Dao and always thinks it can control everything. Otherwise, it would not have been suppressed by Master Xu back then.

Song Wuji's fire element body was what he disliked the most, but one thing was true: Song Wuji had refined two true dragon scales, which greatly nourished him.

He turned back.

After dodging many times, Song Wuji finally figured out some patterns.

"These monsters only become real the moment they touch me, because the harm they cause to me must be real."

"Being a little further away, it becomes an illusion of gathering and parting at will."

"It's clear that this evil dragon's illusionary arts are not yet fully mastered."

"Perfect, let's give it a try! Can we swallow these things and use our supernatural powers to digest them?"

Song Wuji's gaze was intense; he no longer simply dodged, but instead continuously lured the illusory body to attack.

The most suitable candidate is the pig demon, who has the heaviest karmic entanglement with Song Wuji, including the hatred of killing his blood relatives and annihilating his clan. Now that he has been transformed into a fake immortal, he is the most real and genuine one.

The karmic butcher's knife he wielded was also in Song Wuji's possession, but it had been refined into a butcher's knife, making it a low-grade magic weapon that could unleash Song Wuji's [Butcher in Charge of the Stove] power.

But as the blades clashed, the pig demon was reduced to nothing but bones.

This illusion has been refined from falsehood to truth, so Song Wuji could see the internal organs and blood vessels... instead of just a mirage.

But when you open your mouth wide and swallow it into your stomach.

[Original Mirage Qi, Medium Grade] *1
Song Wuji then knew he had succeeded.

All that's left is to follow the same procedure!

When the mirage dragon returned, it saw Song Wuji already consuming the mirage energy.

He sneered, thinking to himself, "My mirage contains mirage poison; consuming it will create a thousand-year illusion! Only the waters of the Yellow Springs can cure it! There will always be a time when one loses their way."

His thoughts were originally private, after all, a matter of the mind.

Unexpectedly, a single red thread was still connected to the Heavenly Weaver Girl, which is why she was able to sense the evil dragon immediately and decisively set up the trap.

A thousand-mile journey is bound by a single thread of fate; it is a meeting of minds that transcends distance.

In a short while, all the little spiders in the secret realm opened their mouths: "Yellow Spring Water! His illusion fears Yellow Spring Water!"

The mirage dragon's appearance changed, but Song Wuji had already used the Yellow Spring Pearl!

There is also a Yellow Spring Fallen Dragon in the Yellow Spring Pearl, which is perfect to be used as a Dragon Pearl.

Song Wuji activated the Heavenly Dipper Transformation technique, instantly transforming into a black dragon. Although the black dragon was young, it still chased after the Yellow Spring Pearl and soared into the sky.

[Floating clouds!]

[Make it rain!]

Instantly, the Yellow Springs water transformed into yellow clouds, which dripped down and turned into Yellow Springs rain!
Yellow Spring Rain can cleanse memories, break down the soul, and purify the primordial spirit!
This mirage dragon's illusion, though it involves the cultivation of truth through deception, is still subject to the constraints of the Yellow Springs.

In a short while, the mirage-like monsters were washed away, transforming into small dragons formed from the mirage. Even the cowherd's skin dissolved in the Yellow Springs water.

Its true nature has been revealed.

A primordial spirit!
This primordial spirit is attached to a male silkworm!

[Seventh-Rank Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit, Silkworm Dragon Incarnation]

The silkworm already has the appearance of a dragon, but it is not a dragon. The silk it spits out is the silk of the mirage, which is the silk of refining the false and cultivating the true, intertwined with the silk of destiny and karma woven by the Weaver Girl.

The enormous silkworm dragon spun silk threads, covering the Yellow Springs water.

Without illusions to rely on, he was somewhat like a silkworm spinning silk until its death.

He's just putting on a brave face at this point.

Upon seeing such a giant silkworm, Song Wuji couldn't help but laugh: "I thought it was a real dragon, but it's just a silkworm. No wonder it was defeated by the Weaver Girl!"

But he took out the charity jar and called out her real name.

The next moment, the power of absorption was generated, and the silkworm was sucked into the jar.

But the silkworm dragon refused to give up, so it spun out silk threads and wrapped itself into a cocoon.

Silkworms can molt nine times and eventually transform into dragons.

But Song Wuji didn't want it to transform into a dragon; he wanted to raise it for breeding and promote silkworm farming.

Although the silkworm dragon has been subdued, the secret realm has not revealed its treasure chest.

A moment later, a magpie bridge reappeared, and the Weaver Girl reappeared in the body of the spider demon.

Song Wuji, however, did not give her a kind look: "The Heavenly Weaver Girl, what a clever scheme!"

"It's not a scheme."

The Heavenly Weaver Girl said, "I offer this Milky Way Shuttle, the secret realm token, and everything else to the realm master. I only ask that the realm master give me the Silkworm Dragon, and I am willing to join the Taichang Realm and the Human Path to help weave the Heavenly Net and Earthly Net of the Human Path."

Song Wuji knew she possessed fifth-rank strength, and since he was powerless to do anything about it, he could only say, "This was originally a secret realm within my Taichang Realm!"

The Weaver Girl said, "This silkworm dragon will only obediently spin silk when it is with me. It can only use its power to spin a cocoon and transform into a new body, thus refining this fallen physical form."

"I am also willing to pass on the Weaver Girl's Method, the rituals for the seventh and sixth ranks. In addition to these rituals, there are also rituals for the ninth-rank mulberry picking girl and the eighth-rank silkworm girl, which will also be used in conjunction."

Song Wuji said, "Since you have explained it this way, then swear in the name of the Queen Mother to join the Taichang Realm and the Human Path, otherwise I will not understand!"

The Weaver Girl knew she had plotted against the Kitchen God, who, having been bitten by a snake once, was now afraid of ropes for ten years.

So he made a vow to prove his true nature.

Only then did Song Wuji give her the cocoon that the silkworm dragon had transformed into.

The Weaver Girl then said, "I'd like to borrow the Karma Knife again!"

Song Wuji handed over his butcher's knife.

The Weaver Girl slashed at her original physical body, and with each strike, there seemed to be the sound of chains.

It is the sign of severing cause and effect.

With the first slash, a large, multicolored spider was cut out.

With the second slash, a red thread of fate was severed.

With the third strike, a fragment of a divine artifact was severed.

After severing the three items, the Heavenly Weaver Girl reached into the corpse again. The heart transformed into a red sachet, the spleen and stomach into a yellow wallet and pouch, and the intestines into five-colored silk threads...

These are all items for safekeeping.

Finally, one silver needle was pulled out.

The Weaver Girl used this needle to thread the needle and sew up the flesh, miraculously stitching the flesh and blood body into a clay statue.

This clay statue is placed under the big tree.

The next moment, a secret treasure chest also appeared under the big tree.

The Weaver Girl then hid these silk fabrics and scattered them towards a secret realm.

In an instant, the landscape transformed from barrenness to vibrant colors.

Tilling the fields!

Sanglin!

Rivers!

All life has returned.

The people who participated in the great migration also became more real.

The spiders born from the spider demons and the mirage dragon all transformed into plump, white silkworms.
