"The Deception of Heaven, also known as the Theft of Heaven's Secrets or the Concealment of Heaven's Powers."

"This technique is an illusion I was born with, which I further comprehended through the method of refining the false to cultivate the true."

“They didn’t notice the part of me that molted and evolved into a silkworm before.”

"However, this deception of Heaven can only be done by deceiving the will of Heaven and Earth after the Three Realms and Six Paths have lost their order. If one had dared to deceive Heaven before, it would have been a capital offense."

"Unless you master illusion techniques as powerful as mine, it will be difficult for you to cast them."

"Illusionary Spirit Pearl is yours. With it in your possession, I can say that you are not among those below the level of immortals."

"It's a pity that I didn't ask the silkworm dragon to shed its primordial spirit and take this pearl with it. Otherwise, even if this part of the body dies, its consciousness can be revived over there."

"However, that spider woman who manipulates cause and effect can see everyone's cause and effect, but not mine. This makes it the most obvious. In any case, as long as I escape, my illusion magic should be able to reach a higher level."

He muttered to himself as he handed over the Illusionary Spirit Pearl, another True Dragon Scale, and a method for cultivating the Heavenly Gang Great Divine Power of Embryo Transformation to Song Wuji. Of course, there were also some backup plans he had left behind.

"it is good!"

Song Wuji unleashed the Yellow Spring Pearl, releasing the Yellow Spring Water and the Yellow Spring Fallen Dragon within.

The mirage dragon was overjoyed: "Yellow Spring Water is poison to me. Yellow Spring Water is good at washing away memories and cognition, and it is extremely effective against my illusions."

"But it is also a treasure. The Yellow Springs govern death, while the Illusionary Spirit governs life. Illusionary life and death are like dew and lightning. If I comprehend this level, I can use illusion to open up a world, allowing the beings in the illusionary realm to be born, grow old, get sick, and die, reincarnating repeatedly, and even refining the false into the real, creating true spirits."

He couldn't wait for the Yellow Springs Dragon to take his place and suffer the punishment of the Red Pillar, and he also couldn't wait to refine the Yellow Springs Water.

But the next moment, he screamed, "What is it doing?"

The Yellow Springs Fallen Dragon was actually a giant loach-like creature, though it had a slight resemblance to a dragon.

At this moment, with a single exhale, mist spread across the Yellow Springs, completely dispelling the mirage.

"You'd better control this monstrous creature and stop it from dissolving my body!" the Mirage Dragon roared.

Song Wuji waved his hand and said, "I can't control him."

"You just swore an oath! To rescue me, and not to harm me, nor to conspire with others to harm me!"

Song Wuji said, "You believe in oaths? If you can make something fake seem real, why can't I manipulate cause and effect?"

Song Wuji held up two jars, one a jar of good and the other a jar of evil.

"Besides, I didn't harm you. My original intention was to save you. I didn't conspire with others to harm you, and my oath didn't say that I needed to save you if you were in danger!"

Song Wuji said, "Now if you want me to save you, you'll have to increase the stakes."

"I forgot to tell you, this Yellow Spring Fallen Dragon is not only the spirit of a branch of the Yellow Spring River, but also possesses the divinity of the Yellow Spring Underworld General Fish Scale Underworld General."

"The Fish Scale Yin General is in charge of guiding the souls of the dead who are covered in scales. You are a Mirage Dragon. Although it is unknown which category the Mirage belongs to, the Dragon, as the leader of scales, will definitely be countered."

"You don't need to be afraid. Perhaps in this life-or-death situation, you will break through the limits of illusion and attain true enlightenment."

"How insidious! How despicable!"

The Mirage Dragon sneered: "You really think the few treasures I gave you were without any backup plan?"

Song Wuji said nonchalantly, "So what if it is?"

"Master Lin, don't pretend you're bewitched by the mirage."

"Hahaha!" Lin Fajing slashed through the illusion with his sword and laughed, "Lord Song, how did you see through my act?"

Song Wuji said, "You've suppressed the Mirage Dragon for a thousand years, so don't tell me you don't have any means to restrain it?"

Lin Fajing said, "Indeed, it seems that it was a bit overacted, but it was just a way to lull this evil dragon into a false sense of security and see if he had any other tricks up his sleeve."

Song Wuji didn't think so. He feared that Master Lin was using the mirage dragon to test the strength of his destiny and how he would handle a crisis.

But then they saw the Yellow Springs Fallen Dragon evolve into the form of "Jiao Crouching in the Yellow Springs". The mirage and the Yellow Springs water combined, and somehow, a large number of "Yellow Springs Remnant Pearls" were produced. These were the mirage dragon's precious memories and understanding of illusion.

The Yellow Springs water, nourished by the mirage, is already highly nutritious.

"Hand over the Dragon Pearl and submit to me as your master." Song Wuji said, "I can spare your life."

Without the Dragon Balls, the Mirage Dragon wouldn't die; at most, its cultivation would drop by more than half, which Song Wuji was confident he could control. "I can take you in as my Evil Jar Child, at least I won't kill you."

The mirage dragon persisted for a while, then stopped howling. It seemed to be considering whether to give it another shot. Suddenly, it asked, "Lin Fajing, has that Xu fellow really descended to the altar?"

“That is natural,” Lin Fajing said. “You wicked dragon, you actually dared to destroy the ley lines of Xiaoyao Mountain and attack my Jingming Sect altar, causing the cave heaven to tremble. Just now, the patriarch has clearly told me that you should be killed.”

The mirage dragon shuddered, and finally sighed resignedly, "I am willing to submit to you as my master."

It immediately spat out a dragon pearl, which was larger than the Illusion Pearl and contained a large amount of dragon energy.

Without the Dragon Balls, the Mirage Dragon immediately weakened, barely able to maintain its dragon form, and degenerated into a ball of mirage energy.

Song Wuji obtained the Dragon Ball and sensed its authenticity using the Stove Book.

For a moment, he felt a pang of emotion, marveling at how Master Xu still wielded considerable influence a thousand years later, his mere title enough to make him resign himself to his fate.

After handing the Dragon Pearl to Lin Fajing, Song Wuji said, "This is the money to buy the life of this evil dragon. Now that he is willing to submit to me and acknowledge me as his master, I wonder if there is any method for him to acknowledge me as his master?"

"Let this beast expose his soul. You can use the Yellow Springs Water to condense a Yellow Springs Seal, which will be enough. If he has any rebellious intentions, the Yellow Springs Water will wash him into an idiot."

But the mirage dragon looked like a defeated dog with a broken spine, its face showing signs of death, completely at the mercy of others.

Song Wuji quickly planted the Yellow Springs Imprint, and then used the Yellow Springs Pearl to collect the Yellow Springs Water. Without the Yellow Springs Water, the Yellow Springs Fallen Dragon obediently returned to the pearl.

"Don't you harbor thoughts of deceiving Heaven?" Song Wuji asked.

"What about the will of Heaven? At least it should be fair."

"Human hearts are treacherous, and poison is worse than arsenic."

"Moreover, it was a mountain that was closer than the sky, pressing down on my head."

Despite his mixed feelings, Song Wuji still cooperated and released the guy from the seal.

But the seal had just been broken.

The mirage dragon, however, beamed with delight and exclaimed, "Finally, we've fallen for it!"

Immediately, a deafening explosion was heard.

"The trapped dragon ascends to heaven! Today is the day!"

"Don't even mention Xu descending to the altar. Even if he were to come down to the mortal realm in his true form, I would still say one thing: my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!"

But then he saw that the Mirage Dragon Pearl and other items he had just given to Song Wuji had all turned into a cloud of mirage energy.

"A blatant act of deceiving Heaven!"

Song Wuji was startled.

But then the mirage dragon broke free of its confinement, which had suppressed it for a thousand years. It emerged from its cage in a single day, and its aura rapidly rose.

It shows signs of breaking through to the third rank!
But the next moment.

The fiery pillar rose up from the ground and changed with the wind, transforming into a crimson sword sheath.

The crimson scabbard let out a soft sigh.

"cut!"

The next moment, the mirage dragon seemed to have encountered some great terror.

It was immediately cut in two.

It wasn't a horizontal slash.

It was cut vertically.

The entire dragon was split in two from the center of its forehead.
