Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 111 The Real Illusion
In just a few breaths, Su You rushed into the Tu tribe.

A Real Fantasy World!

The mirage that had been lurking in the sea of ​​consciousness rapidly expanded.

A series of realistic illusions enveloped the entire tribe.

This was the first time he had used the Mirage Dragon's innate ability at full power.

The combination of his mirage energy and his two innate talents in the Mirage Realm made his ability to create illusions even more powerful.

In particular, the realistic illusions he creates in advance within the Mirage Realm using mirage energy can be directly unleashed through the Mirage Realm, allowing him to deal with enemies much faster.

Throughout the entire tribe, all the Tu people were trapped in an illusion.

Of course, Su You's target was not these local tribes, but the remnant soul located in the treasure vault.

He was extremely interested in this remnant soul at the Nascent Soul stage.

Putting aside everything else, these old monsters who have cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage must have accumulated a great deal of knowledge.

Moreover, the other party cultivates the demonic path.

Although Su You had no interest in switching to demonic cultivation, it didn't stop him from researching this area.

He is currently exposed to most normal cultivation methods. The only time he came into contact with demonic methods was when he killed the elder of Blood Abyss. The demonic secret techniques he possessed were quite interesting.

Furthermore, Su You was quite curious about demonic energy. Demonic energy should also be a kind of negative energy, but he was unclear about the difference between it and the negative energy in the wizarding world.

The study of negative energy is a topic that most wizards will not avoid, because compared to positive energy, negative energy is faster in improving cultivation.

Many wizards exploit this characteristic to cultivate cannon fodder slaves to enrich their ranks.

The demonic path is indeed similar; its cultivation speed is far faster than that of the righteous path. However, its drawback is that it can easily lead to an inability to control one's power, resulting in being controlled by that power and becoming a low-intelligence demon.

In fact, most demonic cultivators are very short-tempered, which is a negative effect of practicing demonic techniques.

Demonic cultivators often enjoy killing, partly due to the requirements of their cultivation techniques, but mostly because they cannot control their emotions.

Under the shroud of a realistic illusion, the entire valley seemed to fall into silence.

The Black Abyss, which had just devoured Uz, was no exception; it was currently at its weakest.

Although it successfully devoured Uzi's soul, its weakened remnant soul also weakened considerably.

Fortunately, the possession was successful.

Unfortunately, before Hei Yuan could even contemplate the future, his entire being, including his soul, was trapped in an illusion.

The real illusion that Su You set up is his most powerful move right now. Even if he encounters a cultivator in the late stage of the Golden Core realm, he can easily make the opponent fall into the illusion and become trapped in it.

Although Hei Yuan was originally at the Nascent Soul stage, he is now just a remnant soul. After the possession incident, the remnant soul has become extremely weak and is unable to resist this illusion.

In the blink of an eye, he was trapped in an illusion, where he continued his great work. He commanded the Tu tribe and prepared the sacrificial formation.

After a brief assessment, confirming that the other party was already immersed in the illusion, Su You approached directly, first sealing the power of the other party's body, and then beginning to gradually erode it, working on his soul.

By the time the other party woke up, he had already pounced like a ferocious tiger, easily suppressing the remnant soul and forcibly enslaving it.

Hei Yuan's face struggled continuously, but after a moment it returned to calm.

"This old servant Hei Yuan greets his master." Hei Yuan opened his eyes, saw Su You, and immediately knelt down.

"Get up and tell me about your situation." Su You nodded calmly.

"Master, I was originally the Supreme Elder of the Crimson Yin Sect, a major demonic sect in Baiming Prefecture. However, during an adventure, I unfortunately fell into a spatial rift, and my physical body was destroyed. I had no choice but to take refuge in the Black Fiend Statue and eventually ended up in this secret realm..." Hei Yuan carefully introduced his background, cultivation, and other matters.

"Late Nascent Soul stage!" Su You's face lit up with surprise.

He originally thought this remnant soul was just an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, but he didn't expect it to be a powerful cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

It seems that this person was the biggest gain from this secret realm.

Although it was difficult for Hei Yuan to recover his cultivation level after possessing Su You's body, he still possessed his own wisdom and knowledge accumulated over thousands of years, which was very useful to Su You.

However, the sect the other party belongs to is located in Baiming Prefecture.

This large state is also located on the border of the continent, but it is completely opposite to Qingzhou, making it extremely difficult for Su You to get there.

Moreover, he had no effect in the past.

If Hei Yuan still possessed his cultivation, with the help of Hei Yuan's power, he could not only completely control a major demonic sect, but at least obtain a portion of its essence, and even easily acquire all the knowledge collected by their sect.

but now.

Hei Yuan is merely a remnant soul possessing another body; his cultivation is only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Once he returns and exposes his identity, the most likely outcome is that he will be directly captured, his soul searched, and his remaining value extracted. He might then be used to refine treasures.

The ruthlessness of demonic sects is the same whether they are dealing with internal or external forces.

Of course, only those with sufficient strength can live a comfortable life in the Demonic Sect.

Taking in such a servant is certainly a good thing, but how to get him out of the secret realm is a problem.

Taking the other party away is the only way to maximize profits.

Firstly, the secret realm is open for too short a time, making it impossible to fully absorb the other party's knowledge.

Furthermore, Hei Yuan, as an ancient monster who has lived for thousands of years, is not only ruthless and vicious, but also possesses wisdom in order to survive in the Demonic Sect.

As Su You's cultivation level continued to improve, his pace became faster and faster, and his shops expanded more and more. He needed a person with both wisdom and strength to help him control his power.

Unfortunately, if his illusionary powers could be used on others, he could easily deceive the elders guarding the formation. However, his illusionary powers only work on himself, so taking Hei Yuan away would be a problem.

After thinking for a moment, Su You asked directly, "Do you have any procedures for leaving?"

As a seasoned veteran, Hei Yuan should have more experience in this area than him.

Upon hearing this, Hei Yuan pondered silently for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. "Master, if I were to have the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm now, I would have a way to leave the secret realm. If you would allow me to sacrifice this secret realm, I could then re-enter the Nascent Soul Realm."

The Black Abyss had mentioned the matter of sacrificing to the secret realm before.

According to his original plan, after sacrificing himself in the secret realm, he would not only be able to recover, but also break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

But at most, it can help him break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. "Sacrifice Secret Realm..." Su You hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

It wasn't that he couldn't bring himself to do it, but sacrificing the secret realm would be such a waste.

If he could help Hei Yuan break through to the Nascent Soul realm, he would definitely agree without hesitation.

However, at most he can only reach the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, so it's not very useful to Su You now.

He doesn't currently need high-end combat power, since he spends most of his energy cultivating. Even when he goes out, he doesn't need bodyguards; it's more convenient for him to act alone.

In the area of ​​Sunset Island, there is even less need for high-end combat power. With the Wizard Tower protecting it, most Nascent Soul cultivators have nothing to fear.

After thinking it over, Su You decided to let Hei Yuan stay in the secret realm to help him collect resources.

The resources within the Hongya Secret Realm have been largely undeveloped. Hei Yuan is now powerful enough to roam freely within the Hongya Secret Realm, which is perfect for him to subdue the various tribes and collect the various resources within the secret realm.

Moreover, he might also have a chance to bring Hei Yuan out.

The Void Heaven Sect uses teleportation arrays to enter and exit the Hongya Secret Realm.

Su You also knows teleportation arrays, although they are based on knowledge passed down in the wizarding world, they have the same effect.

However, his understanding of teleportation arrays was only very superficial, so the longest distance he had ever traveled was no more than 100,000 li, let alone knowledge of magic arrays for cross-space teleportation.

The knowledge of magic arrays for inter-space teleportation is arguably the most profound part.

As wizards who conquer the heavens, they are most familiar with invading other worlds, and setting up world-class teleportation arrays is also the most common thing they do.

However, world-class teleportation arrays are far beyond his comprehension, let alone the knowledge that even first-tier inheritances lack.

Secret realms and world teleportation arrays are much simpler, since most secret realms are dependent on the world for their existence, and not only are they very close, but the spatial barriers are also very weak.

If Su You could really set up such an array, he could be said to have indirectly gained control of this secret realm.

Once he eliminates all the hidden tricks left behind by the Void Heaven Sect, he will truly have control of this secret realm.

Controlling a secret realm yourself is far more valuable than sacrificing it.

However, it's unclear how long it will take to comprehend this kind of inheritance, which is indeed a problem.

"I should have known better than to research that bloodline potion." Su You shook his head helplessly.

If I had enough Enlightenment Tea leaves, I might have been able to set up a secret realm teleportation array long ago.

There were only three catties of Enlightenment Tea available. Su You hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to keep it for the time being.

When he breaks through to the Golden Core stage, he will definitely need the tea leaves for enlightenment, so these tea leaves cannot be touched for the time being.

After breaking through to the Golden Core realm, if there is still some left, then I will study the formation.

Now that the decision had been made, Su You began to explain the situation.

After all, even if one successfully comprehends the formation, it will still take another thirty years to bring the Black Abyss out.

At that time, all you need to do is control one disciple and have them bring the prepared formation into the Hongya Secret Realm.

After explaining everything, Su You took everything from the treasure vault.

There are many treasures collected here, especially since, under the guidance of Hei Yuan, this Tu tribe has a much better eye than other tribes.

After a rough estimate, the various spiritual herbs, minerals, and other materials in this treasure trove could probably be sold for more than three million spirit stones, which was a considerable sum for Su You.

After collecting all the treasures from the treasure vault into the Qionghua Mark, Su You drifted away, silently taking away the Real Illusion. None of the Tu tribes inside noticed anything amiss.

Originally, Su You's plan was to destroy this Tu tribe, but now that Hei Yuan is around, he still needs some subordinates, which will make it easier to collect treasures.

In particular, these local tribes cultivate demonic arts, making them easy targets for Black Abyss to control.

Next, based on the information provided by Hei Yuan, Su You flew rapidly through the Hongya Secret Realm. Whenever he arrived at a Tu tribe, he would immediately activate the Real Illusion Realm and secretly sneak inside to take away the treasures from the vault.

As for these local tribes, he no longer cares about them and has left them all to Hei Yuan to deal with.

Once he has complete control of this secret realm, he will then eliminate these local tribes.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Su You returned to the teleportation array, and the disciples behind him arrived one after another.

He glanced around and saw that only one person had not returned; he couldn't tell if they were dead or simply too late to come back.

However, this also shows that the danger level of this secret realm is very low. Most of those who can enter this secret realm have a background and status. Only those who have made great contributions to the sect or are exceptionally talented will receive such a reward.

Su You estimated that as long as these people were lucky, each of them should be able to easily obtain at least several hundred thousand spirit stones after their trip to the secret realm.

If you're bold enough, you could invade those local tribes and possibly even obtain a million spirit stones.

For these Foundation Establishment cultivators, such abundant resources are enough to help them overcome a significant portion of the obstacles to breaking through to the Golden Core stage.

As for why the secret realm lasted for ten days, Su You also obtained some secrets about the secret realm from Hei Yuan.

The reasons for the existence of these secret realms are unknown. Some were created by ancient powerful beings, but most were born naturally.

Naturally formed secret realms revolve around the world and are not fixed in one location.

Unless one truly controls the secret realm and fixes it in place, one cannot freely enter and exit.

Otherwise, one should only enter when closest to the secret realm and leave when almost out, otherwise the spatial barrier will be stronger, making it impossible to teleport away.

Of course, some sects control more advanced spatial teleportation arrays, which allows them to freely enter and exit secret realms when they are not under the control of others.

The Void Heaven Sect is merely a Nascent Soul sect, so it is naturally impossible for them to master such spatial inheritance. Therefore, they can only enter at specific times.

As for why there are restrictions on cultivation levels, it is naturally due to the restrictions imposed on outsiders by the secret realm. If a Golden Core cultivator enters, their cultivation level will be suppressed to the Foundation Establishment stage.

The creatures in the secret realm, or those who stay here for thirty years, will not be affected. Back then, Black Abyss stayed here for thirty years before he recovered some of his power.

According to Hei Yuan, the Xu Tian Sect should have some arrangements here. Those formations are probably the key to controlling the secret realm. It is estimated that as time goes by, this secret realm will naturally fall into the hands of the Xu Tian Sect.
