Facing Chu Qi's anxious face, Gui Chen said, "This... We, the disciples of the Bodhi Sect, have always practiced in illusions and have a certain resistance to illusions. As long as we find the core of the illusion, our consciousness can break free from it."
Buddhist practitioners of the Bodhi sect seldom enter the secular world, but they are able to go through thousands of "reincarnations" in a thousand illusions, thereby cultivating themselves and their minds. Their Buddhist hearts become more resilient and are not disturbed by the outside world.
"Is there no other way except to break the illusion myself?" Chu Qi asked again.
"This is the best way. If the illusion they are in is not serious, we may be able to pull their consciousness back from the illusion." Gui Chen replied.
"Thank you all."
Except for the disciples of Bodhi Sect and Chu Qi, no one else could avoid the illusion and their consciousness was immersed in the dreamland.
The Buddhist practitioners led by Gui Chen began to chant Buddhist verses, trying to pull their consciousness back from the illusion.
There were more than 40 Buddhist practitioners, and 15 Tianxuan Sect disciples and Yan family members. There were enough Buddhist practitioners, and there were even some left over.
Half a minute later, several disciples of Tianxuan Sect slowly regained consciousness.
"Practicing swordplay... Where is the sword in my hand? Why did the sword disappear in the blink of an eye?"
"It will cost 600 spirit stones to repair the spirit sword. I will take on a few more sect missions and try to repair it as soon as possible... Huh?!"
"… "
In the illusion, everyone's experience is different. Most of the Tianxuan Sect disciples' mumblings before waking up are related to the spirit sword. After waking up, they looked at the Buddhist disciples in front of them in confusion, and then they came to their senses and felt embarrassed.
Luo Wuci scratched his head, "This illusion is so powerful, it almost tricked all the spirit stones in my Qiankun bag away."
"You don't have many spirit stones in your Qiankun bag." Liu Weiming added.
"Brother Liu, even if there are only a few mosquitoes, they are still meat... Hey, is everyone awake? Is there anyone who hasn't woken up yet?"
As Luo Wuci was talking, his eyes swept across Chu Qi's anxious face, and then he followed his gaze to see Yan Jiuge who was still trapped in the illusion.
He immediately shut his mouth and walked quietly in that direction, hoping to see the first senior brother wake up quickly.
Gui Chen was reciting the Buddhist verse for the second time. The golden spiritual power lingered around Yan Jiuge, but there was no change in Yan Jiuge's expression.
Most of the Tianxuan Sect disciples woke up from the illusion, but none of the Yan family members woke up and were all deeply trapped in the illusion.
Chu Qi waited anxiously, staring at Yan Jiuge without blinking, worried that he would miss any sign of waking up.
After a moment, Gui Chen opened his eyes, stopped chanting, and shook his head solemnly, "No, I can't bring back Fellow Daoist Yan's consciousness. The illusion he was under was too deep. I tried to awaken his sea of consciousness, but was driven away by a thick fog."
"Yes, the illusions used by others are not as deep as those of these fellow Taoists. Theirs seem to be much more serious." Another Buddhist disciple also nodded.
Those who haven't woken up yet are all members of the Yan family.
Chu Qi bit his lip. Of course he knew the reason, because this illusion was aimed at Yan Jiuge and others, so most of the power would be concentrated on Yan Jiuge.
"Is there no solution at all?" Chu Qi's eyes were dim.
"Maybe..." Looking at Chu Qi's sad expression, Gui Chen remembered the way Yan Jiuge asked them to leave and took the initiative to take responsibility. He sighed in his heart and finished his unfinished words, "Fellow Daoist Chu, you can try to enter his sea of consciousness, that is, go to the illusion where he is, and find a way to wake him up."
But this method is very dangerous.
"how should I do?"
Before Gui Chen could finish his second sentence, the person standing next to him had his eyes lit up and asked with anticipation.
"Use your divine sense to explore his sea of consciousness. If you don't encounter thick fog blocking you, it means that he subconsciously trusts you enough, and you can continue to go deeper into the illusion where he is. After entering the illusion, he will forget the memory of reality. You have to make him trust you enough before you tell him that he is in an illusion. In addition..."
Seeing Chu Qi starting to try out his theory, Gui Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly condensed his unfinished words into one sentence, "Enemy who casts illusions will also lurk in the illusion, so be extra careful!"
Chu Qi nodded slightly.
The next moment, he closed his eyes and probed his spiritual sense into Yan Jiuge's sea of consciousness.
First, he encountered what Gui Chen described as thick fog, but soon, this barrier gradually dissipated, allowing Chu Qi's consciousness to continue to go deeper.
Afterwards, Chu Qi’s consciousness was completely immersed in the illusion.
*
After feeling dizzy for a while, Chu Qi heard some noisy arguing.
"I've told you that there's something important going on ahead. You can either take another route or wait here until it's done, then you can go over there."
"What's so important that you are keeping it secret? Don't go too far, Yan family! Do you know that the people sitting in the carriage are from Medicine King Valley—"
"Shiso, shut up."
Another serious middle-aged male voice interrupted the girl's previous words. As soon as his words came out, the surroundings fell silent, which was very authoritative.
Chu Qi blinked twice, getting rid of the confused feeling of having just entered the illusion, and looked around carefully.
However, Chu Qi was the only one sitting in the carriage at the moment—he was sitting in the main seat. He was the only one occupying the most spacious seat.
Could it be that when he entered the illusion, he was assigned a fictitious identity
Chu Qi frowned slightly, and first opened his perception to check what rank of cultivators were outside the carriage.
His strength in the illusion is also at the Nascent Soul stage, and this has not changed.
If the cultivators outside have higher cultivation levels than himself, he will remain unchanged in the face of change; if they are lower than himself, he will take the initiative.
Chu Qi was thinking carefully when he heard a very familiar voice -
"Since this road is blocked, let me ask our master and then make a decision."
Chu Qi had not been able to hear it clearly when he was half conscious. Now that he had calmed down and listened to it again, he froze in place and muttered in disbelief, "Uncle Lin?"
After his parents passed away, it was Uncle Lin who raised Chu Qi. Even after decades, Chu Qi still remembers Uncle Lin's voice clearly. There is no way he could have remembered it wrong.
Why did Yan Jiuge meet Uncle Lin in his fantasy
What exactly is this illusion
Just as Chu Qi was confused, the blackout curtain beside his car window was pulled open a corner from the outside, but a layer of gauze was still left, so he could only barely see the outline of the man's face.
"Master, the road ahead is blocked. Someone from the Yan family's law enforcement team is handling an important matter. Do you want to stay here and wait or take another route?"
It’s Uncle Lin!
It was Uncle Lin's appearance and voice. His temples were not yet gray, and he looked as young as Chu Qi when he was a child. His time of death had not yet come, and he looked like a normal cultivator.
Chu Qi took a deep breath. He felt a little nervous for some reason. Seeing Uncle Lin waiting for his answer outside the carriage, he pretended to be calm and said, "Stay here and wait for a while."
Yan family law enforcement team
Maybe it has something to do with Ayan.
Since he had come to Yan Jiuge's fantasy world, he shouldn't be too far away from Yan Jiuge.
Thinking of this, Chu Qi couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What is the Yan family law enforcement team busy with?"
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere around him became quiet again.
The girl who was arguing with someone ran over and complained in front of the window, "We don't know what the serious matter is. The Yan family is mysterious and unreasonable. After taking charge of the precepts, they have been like this and never look anyone in the eye."
"Maybe there is something unspeakable." Chu Qi said.
“Ah? This… They, their Yan family is so powerful, but they still have some unspeakable secrets…” Zi Su was stunned, as if she couldn’t quite understand what Chu Qi said.
"Just wait here, stay calm and don't get into conflict with others." Chu Qi advised her.
"Zi Su, obey your command, young master... um, the master is kind and generous. Alas, if we delay, we will not be able to catch up with the maturity of the ten thousand year old blood ganoderma. It is a pity to miss such a medicinal herb."
The girl had a lively temper, and after admitting her mistake, her attention turned to other things.
"It's okay, let's all rest for a while." Chu Qi roughly understood his current identity. He should be a young master of a wealthy family of some power, but he didn't know what it was specifically.
But with Uncle Lin around, Chu Qi's curiosity increased a lot, and he deliberately said, "It's boring to sit in the carriage, so I'll go down and relax first."
"Okay, Master, please."
Hearing this, Zi Su ran to the front of the car and opened the door curtain.
The light from outside poured in all at once, scattering at Chu Qi's feet and illuminating the intricate and delicate patterns on the hem of his clothes. The pattern was of hundreds of herbs and flowers, elegant and dignified, but upon closer inspection, it was actually all expensive defensive spells interwoven on it. The outer garment was covered with a layer of clear white gauze, which looked like flowing light in the sunlight.
Such an outfit.
This shows the family's heritage.
Chu Qi gently stroked his sleeves with his fingers. So far, he had only seen defensive spells embroidered on robes as decoration on Yan Jiuge.
The flamboyant and bright golden dragon on Yan Jiuge's robe was embroidered entirely with spiritual spells.
Now, the robe he was wearing was even more exaggerated than Yan Jiuge's.
What kind of family did he become
As Chu Qi walked out, he couldn't help but be distracted and thinking.
When Chu Qi walked out of the carriage, the people outside took a deep breath when they saw him, with unconcealable surprise in their eyes.
The most shocked person was Zi Su. She looked at Chu Qi and began to stutter, "Young Master, why did you get off the carriage without a mask..."
"?"
There was a flash of confusion in Chu Qi's eyes.
What to wear
mask
