The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

Gu Ran patted Lilith on the shoulder; he could tell that Lilith's emotions were fluctuating a bit.

"Don't forget that there's more than one enemy; he has helpers, which may be the abilities of another demon general."

A masterful illusion... a blend of illusion and reality, truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth, a mixture of both. Ordinary people would indeed find it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake in this illusion. It's just a pity you've encountered me today.

Gu Ran drew the sword from his waist.

If he didn't possess a powerful telekinetic tool that allows him to meticulously observe his surroundings and find even the slightest flaw, he would have had a hard time figuring out how to break the opponent's illusion.

Even with his telekinetic abilities, he couldn't immediately find a way to break the illusion, because the opponent's setup was too ingenious and not rigid at all.

They are half in the real world and half in the illusionary world.

The location of the illusion world is constantly changing, so sometimes it seems like a fake world, but sometimes it feels real to Gu Ran. However, when it feels real, it suddenly turns into a fake world the next moment.

This kind of illusion, which is sometimes real and sometimes fake, is the most difficult for ordinary people to distinguish. However, because his mental power covers a wide range and can perceive changes in the environment at all times, he can clearly perceive the changes between reality and illusion and find the dividing line between them.

The weakness of this illusion lies in the boundary between reality and illusion. If he can cleave it open with a single sword strike, he can completely separate reality from illusion, thus breaking the illusion.

The opponent seemed to know his own weakness, so the boundary between reality and illusion was constantly changing, making it difficult for ordinary strong people to lock onto. Even if they could lock onto it, they would have little strength to separate it, but he was able to do just that.

Telekinesis, like radar, can find weaknesses, and the nameless sword in his hand, after being infused with telekinesis, is sharp enough to sever the boundary between reality and illusion.

Serius sneered, "You're putting on quite the act, human. This is the home ground of the Abyss Demons. Even if you're one of the strongest humans, you'll have to kneel down here!"

Gu Ran smiled. He could indeed feel the abyss world's rejection of him, which would affect his performance to some extent. If top-tier experts were to fight, this debuff would be enough to influence the outcome of the battle.

After finding a way to break the illusion, Gu Ran was no longer in such a hurry. He also wanted to talk to the other party and extract more information.

"I'm curious, are all of these your genitals? They look a bit disgusting."

Serius looked Gu Ran up and down: "I suddenly realized that you, a human, are quite handsome. It would be a waste to kill you directly. Didn't you want to know what these tentacles are? Then come and experience them for yourself."

Serius licked his lips, revealing a lustful smile.

No wonder Lilith hates this guy so much; he really is disgusting, especially since he's bisexual.

Gu Ran originally wanted to talk to Serius more to extract information.

But I don't want to think about it anymore. I feel disgusted even saying another word to this guy. I might as well just deal with it directly.

"When I break this illusion, you immediately attack this disgusting guy with your black flame!"

Lilith nodded.

At that moment, Gu Ran and Lilith quickly reached an agreement without any bargaining.

Serius ignored it and continued to extend his tentacles toward Gu Ran and Lilith, while also rushing toward the two of them.

The black flames along the way seemed to disappear as if they didn't exist, and were all passed through.

295. Easily break the illusion! Another demon general! Battle! 4k

Gu Ran gripped the sword in his hand and poured all his mental energy into it.

In the instant he sensed the boundary between reality and illusion, he suddenly slashed!

"Do it!"

Serius originally didn't care about Gu Ran, because in his impression, although there were powerful humans, their strength would be greatly reduced after entering the abyss.

Let alone breaking through Angshu's illusion, staying there for too long will make it difficult to even protect oneself.

When Gu Ran drew his sword and made a show of force, he didn't care at all.

He believed that as long as he got close to the other person, as long as his tentacles could touch the other person.

Whether it's Lilith or that handsome human, they will ultimately become her playthings.

However, to his utter shock, he suddenly sensed a tremendous crisis the instant Gu Ran swung his sword.

Don't try to tough it out!

Upon sensing the danger, he didn't immediately think of dodging. Instead, he subconsciously thought it was just an attack from that human, so why not take it head-on?

However, this idea probably didn't last long in his mind before it was replaced by fear.

If he tries to tough it out, he'll die!

That was the result that came to his mind at that instant.

The body, which had been running forward, immediately stopped in place, then with a push-off, it turned around and retreated.

There was no loud noise; it was like a silent film scene, the world divided into two parts.

One half was intact, while the other half was shattered.

The half of the world that had been shattered then seemed to be reassembled like a mosaic, returning to its original state and piecing together with the other intact half of the world.

Although it looks cool, it's just the real world revealed after the illusion is broken.

Soon this monotonous world was filled with more color and warmth.

The black flames clung to Serius like maggots, one cluster, two clusters, more and more black flames stained his body.

Serius's face was somber, and his tentacles kept falling off like a gecko's tail.

"This troublesome endless fire... I wonder what good luck Lilith had to subdue it."

The fallen tentacles sizzled under the black flames and quickly turned to ashes.

However, these tentacles also achieved their purpose of consuming the black flames, causing the attached black flames to consume their energy as well.

"Without Angshu's illusion, I can't defeat Lilith by myself! Not to mention that human is with her! If this continues, I'm done!"

Serius, who was being forced to retreat by the black flames, suddenly shouted loudly.

"Heh, I wonder who tried to strike first? Now they're backing down? That's hilarious, Serius. Your confident yet pathetic state is just too funny, hahaha! I'm going to tell your ugly face to my descendants for a thousand years!"

A huge black dragon suddenly descended from the sky, stirring up a cloud of dust.

“General Pianru, the Demon Dragon.” Lilith’s expression was rather grim.

If it were just General Serius the Lustful and General Angshu the Bewitching, then with her and Gu Ran joining forces, they would definitely be able to defeat them.

However, with the addition of the Demon Dragon General Pianru, while they should still be able to handle the opponent, they may not be as certain of victory as before.

Gu Ran wasn't too surprised. He looked the "giant lizard" up and down, thinking about where to attack it most efficiently and quickly.

“Pianru, why did you join forces? Just to kill me?” Lilith asked, finding it hard to believe.

At the same time, she had a vague guess in her mind, but this guess still needed to be confirmed.

If this guess is true, then it's a result she could never have imagined.

Pianru opened his enormous mouth and spoke in human language: "That's right, Lilith, you should have guessed it by now, all of this is the divine decree of the Sovereign. The fate of any disobedient is only one—destruction!"

Upon hearing this, Lilith swayed, her heart filled with turmoil, and she could no longer maintain her composure and calmness.

"Your Majesty? A divine oracle?" Gu Ran helped Lilith up. "What is this?"

Lilith forcefully suppressed the unease in her eyes. She grabbed Gu Ran's arm, calming her panic slightly, and explained:

"Although the demon generals are high above in the abyss, and each demon general rules over a vast territory, there is an invisible will above the demon generals that binds them."

"He is called the 'Lord Sovereign'. The selection of each generation of Demon Generals must be approved by the Lord Sovereign. Most of the time, the Lord Sovereign does not directly interfere with any specific matters of Demon Generals or the Abyss, but once a divine decree is issued, all demons in the Abyss must obey it."

"No demon general dares to disobey. Even if the divine decree commands the demon generals to commit suicide, they must commit suicide, because if they do not commit suicide and disobey the Lord's divine decree, there will be consequences more terrible than death."

Lilith's expression gradually returned to normal, but her face was still somewhat pale.

Gu Ran was stern and imposing.

The fact that "Lord Sovereign" could completely control the demon general of the abyss shows that He must be an extremely terrifying and powerful being.

"Although only three demon generals have appeared so far, if it is indeed a divine decree from the Overlord, then the other demon generals will definitely join the siege against us."

The tail that had been wrapped around Lilith's snow-white, smooth thighs quickly loosened, shook, straightened, and then detached, transforming into a spear.

Feeling the black spear in her hand, Lilith seemed to feel a little safer, and her expression was no longer as pale as before.

“Gu Ran, although I really want you to escape on your own, that’s my business, they won’t let me go, and they certainly won’t let you go, a human being connected to me, unless you can open a spatial portal on your own and return to the human world.”

Lilith tossed a ring to Gu Ran, then turned to Serius and the others, wary.

"This is a spatial item that can open a portal near Azure Dragon City. If you're lucky enough, you might be able to open the portal yourself and escape. However, they probably won't give you the chance to open the portal and escape at your leisure."

The process from opening the portal to entering and being teleported away, though brief, still takes time.

For a top-tier expert, that amount of time is enough to kill an ordinary person dozens of times over.

Gu Ran carefully placed a ring and the necklace that Xue Xiling had been wearing together, trying to avoid them falling off during the upcoming battle.

"How do their strength compare to yours?"

"If it's a one-on-one fight, no one can beat me, but if any two of them team up, I'm no match for them either."

"That's alright, their strength isn't enough to make me so afraid that I'd run away."

“Gu Ran, your strength is indeed very strong, but this is the abyss, where the strength of you humans will decrease significantly, and there is no spiritual energy in the abyss for you to absorb.”

Lilith, who had fought Gu Ran many times, certainly knew how terrifying he was, but she understood the Abyss better than Gu Ran did.

Besides a certain degree of decline in strength, the biggest weakness is the lack of spiritual energy to replenish the spiritual power in the body, resulting in insufficient combat endurance.

Unless one carries a large amount of pure star stones to replenish spiritual power, the Abyss is too restrictive for human powerhouses, and they would almost certainly be defeated if they encountered a demon general.
