In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 46 I would appreciate your guidance!

Before long, the Crimson King arrived with the King of Ten Thousand Demons.

Judging from his expression, the Demon King was clearly very interested. It must have been because the Crimson King had boasted on the way and mentioned the suggestion that Zhu Wu had made earlier.

"King of Ten Thousand Demons, this time you've opened up a true spiritual world, which has given me some ideas."

After some discussion, Zhu Wu put forward his idea.

"Do you think it's possible to create an illusionary space using mental power, and forcibly pull the opponent's consciousness into it when making eye contact? In this way, the victim's consciousness would lose control of their body, leaving them completely vulnerable. Furthermore, because of the vast difference in mental power, the victim's consciousness would also be powerless to resist within the illusionary space. If attacked, would the pain be indistinguishable from that in reality?"

"If this can be achieved, the victim will inevitably fall into severe mental exhaustion, ultimately leading to a mental breakdown."

"Creating an illusionary space isn't difficult, nor is synchronizing pain. While the spirit has no physical form, an attack using corresponding mental power will certainly cause damage. Besides, even without pain, the visual torment is unbearable for most people." The Demon King spoke while pondering, finding Zhu Wu's idea worthy of study. "The key is how to draw them in; that's the problem!"

"What about charm or hypnosis?" Zhu Wu replied, "The influence of subtle, gradual influence is the most difficult to detect. So, can we slowly erode the opponent with mental power during combat, or directly charm them and affect their thinking?"

"It can be launched suddenly the instant the opponent attacks, connecting with the opponent's actions to trap them in an illusion. Once trapped in the illusion, everything that follows will evolve in a direction that the victim perceives as advantageous, while in reality, the physical body has already fallen into a deep sleep."

"I call this idea a dream bubble, meaning something that is like a dream and then vanishes into nothingness."

"This move is brilliant; it certainly deserves further study," the Demon King nodded.

"Furthermore, I've come up with another idea, which I'll call 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon,'" Zhu Wu continued. "It involves creating illusions within a certain range to mislead the opponent's visual senses. For example, creating illusions of the opponent's allies to obscure our own teammates, or creating illusions of our own teammates in front of the opponent's allies to lure them into attacking, while weaving in illusion attacks. In this way, we can confuse the opponent's vision, making it impossible for them to distinguish friend from foe. Meanwhile, we can wait in ambush and launch an attack."

"Of course, you can also consider creating some dazzling or extremely distorted illusions, such as falling from a great height, spinning around, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, etc., in order to cause visual fatigue and discomfort such as fear in the enemy, thereby revealing their weaknesses."

"Furthermore, by adding soul power, a semi-real illusion can be created, combining the real and the illusory to conceal deadly moves."

"A very good idea, and it's entirely feasible." The Demon King's eyes shone brightly.

"In addition, I presume you are familiar with the skills 'Mental Paralysis' and 'Mental Weakness'," Zhu Wu continued.

"So, is it possible to combine the two to infinitely slow down the opponent's thinking speed, giving them the illusion that a moment is like an eternity? Their thinking ability is still there, but their body cannot move. In the human world, a similar condition is called sleep paralysis, also known as sleep paralysis."

"It usually manifests as a sudden awakening of consciousness during sleep, but no matter how much one struggles, the body remains unable to move or make a sound."

"Isn't this the effect of my domain skill, 'A Thousand Years in an Instant'?" The Demon King was shocked. Zhu Wu had actually come to this conclusion.

"This is entirely possible."

"Please enlighten me!" Zhu Wu revealed his true intentions, adopting a humble attitude.

Having already heard several suggestions from Zhu Wu, the Demon King did not hide anything and shared his own insights.

Damn, if I had been able to think of and comprehend these skills before, I wouldn't be in such a miserable state now. Tianmeng Bingcan became more and more depressed as she listened.

"Wow, amazing!" The three-eyed golden lion stared intently at Zhu Wu, its admiration growing with each word.

Then Zhu Wu and the Demon King got more and more into their conversation, talking more and more deeply until the sun set in the west.

During this time, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also joined. Although its nearly one million years of cultivation was accumulated through eating and sleeping, it was still a spirit-attribute soul beast and had some experience.

Soon, the sun set, leaving only a touch of orange-yellow in the distant clouds.

"I will visit again tomorrow." The Demon King cupped his hands in greeting, looked thoughtful, and left without even staying for dinner.

After all, his true form was a tree. Zhu Wu nodded slightly and watched the Demon King fly away.

"I'll go make dinner," she said as she got up.

That night, after eating and drinking his fill, Zhu Wu did the same as the night before: first, he practiced the Longevity Technique, then he told stories to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and then he went to sleep!

The next day, as usual, the Demon King arrived on time in the afternoon and began a discussion with Zhu Wu, during which an experiment was conducted on site.

Zhu Wu benefited greatly and indicated that they would continue tomorrow.

A day later, at the appointed time, Di Tian arrived, grabbed Zhu Wu, and took off directly.

Because the flight altitude was high enough, there was no need to worry about being seen, so the travel speed was extremely fast, and it only took three days of continuous flying to reach Sunset Forest.

If I hadn't absorbed the gold of living beings, I really wouldn't have been able to fly for three days and three nights. Zhu Wu sighed inwardly as he landed to rest.

After a quick rest and a bite to eat, Zhu Wu stood up and said, "Di Tian, ​​I suggest we focus our search on areas shrouded in large swaths of mist. Firstly, the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King fell together. If they landed in the same area, given their elemental strength, any dissipation of their auras would inevitably cause water and fire to come into contact, creating mist that would cover a large area."

"Secondly, although the Sunset Forest is vast, it is not far from the capital of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"As the capital of a nation, it is bound to be a gathering place for Soul Master groups. Therefore, Soul Masters must frequently come here to hunt Soul Beasts to obtain Soul Rings. If its location were not so secluded, it would probably have been discovered long ago. And if it had indeed been discovered, Sunset Forest would probably have already been controlled and sealed off by the Empire or other Soul Master forces."

"In that case, it's impossible that we didn't encounter any humans on patrol as we ventured deeper into the region."

After listening, Di Tian agreed and nodded, "Okay."

Hug Zhu Wu tightly around the waist and take off from the spot!

Several hours later, in mid-air, the little white head that was lying on Zhu Wu's collar suddenly lifted up, emitting a violent mental fluctuation.

Zhu Wudun sensed that Xiaobai was excited, and quickly said, "Di Tian, ​​go down and take a look."

"Okay." Di Tian responded and quickly descended with Zhu Wu, soon landing on the edge of a cliff where thick fog was rising.

"This smells of sulfur. Is there a volcano down there?" Di Tian said, sniffing the air.

"It's also possible that the hot spring was formed because the volcano hasn't completely cooled down yet. It contains lava, and spring water accumulates on top. The rising mist is water vapor that has been evaporated by the high temperature," Zhu Wu continued. "This kind of phenomenon does fit the burial place of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings."

Di Tian's eyes lit up immediately. "Let's go down and take a look."

Then Zhu Wu sensed Xiao Bai's emotional fluctuations again, raised an eyebrow, and quickly said, "There are probably people down below. My martial soul sensed a trace of danger. It must be that there is a trace of human presence mixed in with this rising mist."

"However, it seems there's only one." Knowing that the most likely candidate is Dugu Bo, Zhu Wu added.

"Just to be on the safe side, I'd better go down and take a look by myself first," Di Tian said.

Zhu Wu understood that he was worried about him, so he shook his head and said, "It's alright, I'll just follow behind."

As he spoke, he used the spirit-sharing skill he had recently learned from the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to transmit commands and allow the Little White Martial Soul to possess him.

Soon, a flash of white light appeared, and Zhu Wu transformed into a small bird, saying, "Let's go."

Di Tian nodded, leaped down, and Zhu Wu followed.

"Who!?" As they descended, amidst the churning clouds, a sharp, low shout suddenly came from below.
