Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 903 - 902: Illusion

Rumble!

Just as Chu Ming fled the square, the entire square suddenly shattered with a bang, countless fragments shooting around imbued with a terrifying force, easily piercing the walls!

Whoosh!

Chu Ming raced along the passage and arrived at a Bronze Hall, where bronze lanterns illuminated the surroundings, with faint gray vortices spiraling in the sky!

"Xiao Ai, can you sense where the Sacred Artifact is?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Stopping in front of the hall, Chu Ming spoke to Xiao Ai in his mind!

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ai responded slowly, "I can only detect a vague range, but cannot determine the exact location of the Sacred Artifact!"

"Oh?"

Chu Ming's eyes lit up. Even if Xiao Ai could only determine a vague location, it was still an advantage for him, preventing him from wandering the ruins aimlessly like a headless fly!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Just as Chu Ming was about to ask Xiao Ai for the vague location of the Sacred Artifact, several sounds of air being split echoing, and a dozen young talents flew over from afar, led by none other than Gui Xuan Sword, Li Fang!

And behind Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang were two equally invincible Sealed Saint Level geniuses, Waterless Sword Li Ke and Blood Saber Lei Wuji!

If it were just Gui Xuan Sword Li Ke, Chu Ming would naturally not fear, after all, his combat strength was no weaker than Gui Xuan Sword Li Ke, but with the addition of Blood Saber Lei Wuji, it made him feel slightly troubled!

Blood Saber Lei Wuji, although not one of the top ten new experts, could still cause considerable trouble if he engaged in combat!

Whoosh!

Chu Ming cast a cold glance at the young talents of the Seven Swords Association, then turned and continued to speed forward without any intention of stopping!

"Big brother, that kid is over there!"

Blood Saber Lei Wuji, with lightning faintly bursting beneath his feet, moved at an incredible speed, like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky, while alongside him was Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang with a face full of gloom, and as for the others, in terms of speed, they were all half a step slower than the two!

"Chase, hurry, I won't let him get away!"

Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang said through gritted teeth, having never suffered such humiliation before, today's incident was an enormous disgrace to him!

Ahead, Chu Ming's Soul Power split attention between keeping track of Li Fang and the others behind him and inquiring in his mind about the vague location of the Sacred Artifact!

"That Sacred Artifact is very sly, this ruin is full of illusions and truths, in fact, some scenes don't even exist, they're only temporary transformations, thus to find it, we cannot be confined by the layout of the relic in front of us!"

"First you walk three thousand meters from here to the left!"

In Chu Ming's mind, Xiao Ai carefully analyzed!

Whoosh!

Hearing Xiao Ai's words, Chu Ming halted, glanced to his left, and suddenly his expression turned one of doubt and uncertainty!

Because, to his left, there was simply no path, just a thick Bronze Iron Wall. With the thickness of this wall, let alone him, even a Saint Dao master might not be able to smash through it!

"Don't worry, as I said before, this Sacred Artifact is very cunning, most of what's in front of you has been transformed by his Illusion Realm, and this Bronze Iron Wall is no exception!"

Xiao Ai answered blandly!

"Could it be that the treasures on the square just now were also created by illusions?"

Chu Ming furrowed his brow and immediately asked back. If that were the case, then the Artifact Spirit of this Sacred Artifact was indeed very formidable!

"Certainly not, the treasures in those light clusters are genuine, however, I think that although this Sacred Artifact verbally insists on wanting you to find it, it actually fears you truly discovering it. Therefore, he has filled this ruin with illusions, unless a Saint Dao master enters, with your cultivation, it's impossible to distinguish reality from illusion!"

Xiao Ai once again carefully analyzed!

"Then why does it let us enter the ruins and even give us a lot of treasures?"

Chu Ming was perplexed. With the power of the Sacred Artifact, if it didn't want them to enter this ruin, it could easily prevent it without any effort, why go to such lengths?

Subtly, Chu Ming smelled a hint of conspiracy!

"I don't know, perhaps only the Artifact Spirit of the Sacred Artifact knows!"

Xiao Ai said helplessly, having suffered severe injuries and sealed herself, otherwise with her Celestial Artifact might, controlling a Sacred Artifact would be a mere gesture!

Swish!

Chu Ming reached out with his right hand, slowly touched the left on the Bronze Iron Wall, and a penetrating chill spread from it!

"So realistic!"

Continuing forward, Chu Ming's palm suddenly passed through the Bronze Iron Wall, the environment simulation was so real that without Xiao Ai's reminder, Chu Ming would never have discovered this Bronze Iron Wall was actually an illusion!

Swish!

Chu Ming moved forward, his entire body fully merging into the Bronze Iron Wall, disappearing from place!

"Hm? That kid disappeared?"

Not far away, as Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang sped along, his Soul Power kept noticing Chu Ming's movement. Suddenly, his eyes opened wide, and a stunned light gleamed, at that moment, he could no longer sense Chu Ming's soul fluctuation!

"With his speed, it's impossible for him to leave my soul coverage so swiftly, what's going on?"

Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang halted, his expression shifting unpredictably, while Blood Saber Lei Wuji also looked at Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang in confusion!

"Big brother, what's wrong?"

Blood Saber Lei Wuji asked curiously!

"That kid's soul fluctuation vanished!"

Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang exhaled deeply and said slowly.

"How is that possible?!"

Blood Saber Lei Wuji and the others were stunned, eyes filled with disbelief!

"Could he have been killed?"

Blood Saber Lei Wuji asked hesitantly!

"Impossible, his strength is not much weaker than mine, there's no way he could be killed so silently!"

Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang asserted confidently.

"Big brother, outside, he indeed couldn't be killed so easily, but now we're all inside the ruins, everything here is an unknown, perhaps he really encountered a mishap!"

Blood Saber Lei Wuji said softly, and as his words fell, the faces of the other Seven Swords Association members turned deathly pale, if indeed as Blood Saber Lei Wuji said, something could silently kill a Sealed Saint Level genius, then if they continued to press forward, it would be a certain death situation.

Hearing Blood Saber Lei Wuji's analysis, Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang was internally shaken as well. The Sacred Artifact possesses saintly power, methods unforeseeable, killing a Sealed Saint Level genius would indeed be a trivial matter!

"Let's go!"

Gritting his teeth, Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang said to the others behind him, choosing not to continue forward, but opting for a different passage!
