God Tomb_2
Demonic Thought would appear in the Royal City tomorrow, and leaving now would be the best time.
The day after tomorrow, the impending doom on him would disappear, and according to the plan, he should explore the secrets of this world.
The Five Great Families’ Masters looked at each other. Although they found it strange that Su Nan wanted to go first, they didn’t say much.
The Patriarch of the Wang Family said, “Although the area outside the Ancient God Tomb is not as dangerous as inside, it should not be underestimated. Brother Chen, please be careful.”
A thought crossed Su Nan’s mind, and he asked, “What exactly is inside the Ancient God Tomb?”
For such a long time, other than knowing that there might be a way to leave this world in the Ancient God Tomb, he still knew nothing about it.
The Wang Family Master said solemnly, “The Ancient God Tomb is extremely dangerous. Once entering it, even a King-level Powerhouse has a chance to exit, but compared to an Ordinary Person, the probability isn’t much higher. Exiting the tomb depends entirely on luck.”
“The probability of a King-level Powerhouse leaving is similar to that of an Ordinary Person? Why is that?” Su Nan was surprised.
This time, the answer came from the Master of the Wu Family, “Because in there, there is a very strange phenomenon, regardless of the Ream of the martial artist who enters it, they may return to places they’ve been before and encounter people they’ve met before.”
“Return to places they’ve been before? Encounter people they’ve met before?” Su Nan was even more shocked, and then he thought of something, “Are those all illusions?”
If it was simply returning to places they had been before, teleportation could explain it, but encountering people they’ve met before would be absurd, which could only be explained by illusions.
“Correct,”
The Master of the Wu Family nodded and continued, “The illusions in the Ancient God Tomb are not as simple as ordinary ones. They are so real that some people entering it for the first time believe they’ve gone back in time!” “Once you enter the illusion, you should try to escape it as soon as possible. If you stay there for too long, you may never leave it.”
“In order to escape the illusion, there is only one method: you must kill everyone in the illusion realm who you know and only then can you leave!” “What?” Su Nan couldn’t help but feel shocked.
He immediately understood why the Patriarch of the Wang Family had said that the chance of a King-level Powerhouse leaving wasn’t much higher than that of an Ordinary Person.
The stronger the person, the stronger the people they come into contact with.
Ordinary people essentially only come into contact with other Ordinary People, naturally putting both parties on the same starting line.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, “If that’s the case, if we take someone who has never encountered someone stronger than themselves, wouldn’t that solve the problem?”
“If only it were that simple.”
The Wu Family Master shook his head and said, “If the people you encountered were just people you’ve met, it wouldn’t be much of a problem. However, the illusions in the Ancient God Tomb are not just one layer, but many layers.” “According to the guesses of the sages in ancient books, the Ancient God Tomb’s illusions might have nine layers. As you go deeper, you may not only encounter people you know, but even people you’ve heard of!”
“Only by killing those you’ve heard of can you escape the illusion.” “It’s said that an Ancestor of the Daxuan Royal Family once encountered a powerful being recorded in ancient books. Despite killing all the people he knew and heard of, he still couldn’t leave. In the end, he desperately killed the powerful being he’d read about in ancient books and barely escaped with severe injuries.”
Hearing this, Su Nan became restless.
To kill even the existences that he had heard of?
What a joke.
Because of his Ancient Demon Bloodline, he knew quite a few names of monsters from the Ancient Times. What could he use to kill them?
Even if he wouldn’t encounter monsters, he had heard of some powerful martial artists from ancient times, like the Cave Immortal.
Taking another step back, he had met and knew quite a few powerful people. Among them, there were quite a few emperor-level powerhouses.
The more Su Nan thought about it, the heavier his heart became. Based on the current situation, if he entered the Illusion Realm, it was highly likely he would never come out.
“Is there no other way to leave the Illusion Realm, other than killing all those people?” Su Nan asked unwillingly.
The Five Family Masters looked at each other. The Kong Family Master pondered for a moment and said, “There might be, but we only know about this method of killing everyone.”
“Legend has it that Du Qiyuan found a way to leave a hundred years ago, thus opening up this world.”
“Of course, whether this is true or not remains unknown. Perhaps Du Qjyuan never left, and stayed forever in the Illusion Realm.”
“Is there really another way?” Su Nan’s eyes lit up.
As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he might still find a way.
Others might think that Du Qiyuan’s departure was a legend, but he knew clearly that Du Qiyuan had truly left this world.
After that, Su Nan learned some information from the mouths of the five family masters.
It was not until half an hour later that he left the Royal City.
Moonlight sprinkled down.
Under the dark night, carriages sped along the official road,
“Young Master, the Ancient God Tomb is extremely dangerous. Do you really want to enter it?” Chen Ying’s face was full of worry.
Her father went missing outside the Ancient God Tomb. Although she always wanted to go to the Ancient God Tomb to try to find her father, she never thought of entering the real Ancient God Tomb.
“Don’t worry, I won’t go in without absolute certainty,” Su Nan said.
With the ability to foresee the future, he would naturally not take risks.
Before finding a way to crack the illusion of the Ancient God Tomb, he would not really enter it.
As he spoke, he looked at the number of foreknowledge chances on the panel. There were still 6 foreknowledge chances left.
“In my previous foresight, I will encounter that demonic thought in the royal city tomorrow evening.”
“But this doesn’t mean that the demonic thought will reach the royal city tomorrow evening. If the demonic thought is already on the way to the royal city, there might be a chance of encountering it.”
With an alert mind, he decisively chose to foresee.
Whether it was due to the influence of misfortune or fearing the worst, the 6 foreknowledge chances consumed 5 times.
Two hours later, he really encountered the demonic thought.
[Two hours later, you and Chen Ying arrive at a town named Hongxia Town. Unfortunately, you happen to encounter the young man whose body was occupied by the demonic thought who came here with a caravan.]
[The young man discovers the aura left by the use of the demon weapon on your body and wants to force the information related to the demon weapon out of your mouth.]
“Hongxia Town!”
Su Nan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he knew where he would encounter the demonic thought, it would be easy to handle.
He immediately said to Chen Ying, “Don’t pass through Hongxia Town. Change direction.”
“Young Master, if we change direction, we will have to take a few more hours.”
Su Nan said, “It’s okay, just avoid Hongxia Town.”
Chen Ying was puzzled, but had to change directions nonetheless.
The following journey went smoothly.
Two hours later, the two arrived at another small town.
After letting Chen Ying find a place to rest in an inn, Su Nan logged out of the game.
At noon in reality.
Su Nan immediately picked up his phone and logged into the forum.
The abnormal movements of the ocean monsters yesterday aroused everyone’s nerves, and even he had to pay close attention.
However, what made his expression condense was that, compared to yesterday, there were more posts about the movements of the ocean monsters in the forum today. The top-ranked posts were all about the direction of the ocean monsters without exception.
“At one o’clock in the morning today, satellites of various countries discovered that monsters in the Atlantic Ocean were also moving abnormally. A large number of monsters were gathering close to Portugal and Spain, among which there were suspected to be two king-level great monsters.”
“Not only the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, but around 8 o’clock this morning, monsters in the Arctic Ocean are also getting closer to Russia. Moreover, these monsters are obviously trying to prevent nuclear weapons, so they did not gather together but dispersed from all directions.”
“According to the latest news, a large number of monsters have appeared on the border of Yue Country, which is adjacent to our Hua Country. They may attack our Hua Country at any time, and the situation is urgent.”
There is no doubt that the second monster attack on mankind is about to come! Compared with the last time, the number of monsters this time is more than several times greater.
Moreover, unlike last time, this time the monsters are led by King-level Great Monsters, making it an organized and planned action.
“It’s coming after all, I don’t know if mankind can survive this crisis.”
