FVN Chapter 1052: Real or False
Chapter 1052: Real or False
Tiandou Continent, Eastern Front.
"Really... I see. No wonder I couldn't get in touch with the satellite imagery just now." Xie Yuxin looked at the information coming from the magic mirror, frowning, "Tiandou Continent is surrounded by the power of the underworld. The underworld is an illusory world located in the collective subconscious sea... Is this a mixed reality? The virtual world is infecting the real world, and reality is gradually falling into the illusion... This is more serious than the collective subconscious of the humans on Tiandou Continent falling into the underworld before. Even the material continent will fall into it... The current Tiandou Continent should not have completely entered the underworld, but it is only a matter of time... In addition to me, the mental state of other people is also undergoing alienation. No, maybe I have already..."
"Let Master solve the problem of the underworld. Now we should concentrate on dealing with the demons in front of us, and find a way to control the alienation of the spirit." Xie Yuxin looked forward, "According to intelligence, infants and young children with weak willpower, patients and criminals, ordinary animals and plants, and soul beasts with weaker cultivation have shown signs of demonization, and they are contagious in groups, causing damage to various regions and causing a certain amount of chaos... This matter cannot be told to the front-line soldiers, so as not to affect morale. Find the right person to control it first. Tiandou Continent is isolated from the plane, and I don’t know how much plane power it can borrow. I’m afraid this battle will be more difficult than I imagined."
As she thought about it, she sent a message to Ling Lixuan: "Use your divine blessing field to expand as much as possible."
Although Ling Lixuan didn't understand the reason, he took action immediately. The divine blessing field expanded, and the surroundings were immediately covered by rich divine power.
"Ah...!" Suddenly, screams were heard.
Within the area, many people screamed and emanated a thick demonic aura visible to the naked eye.
Especially Xue Menghuai, her aura fluctuated violently and her face looked hideous.
Ling Lixuan recalled that he had seen the girl in front of him. She was the girl who was used by the evil soul master to replace the original a long time ago.
"It's you!" Ling Lixuan pointed the sword in his hand at the girl, "Where did you hide Meng Huai?"
"What are you talking about? I am your Xue Menghuai." The girl forced a smile.
"She's not lying." At this moment, Wang Haochen descended from a distance, "I'm afraid they have been one from the beginning. You should have never seen them both appear at the same time, right?"
Ling Lixuan was stunned. "You mean, two souls in one body?"
"It's the dissociation of multiple personalities. It should be some kind of power from the devil that allowed her to gain a new personality, causing her abilities to reverse and separate. Good thoughts and evil thoughts separated, and her abilities also had light and dark oppositions. The new personality instinctively wanted to replace the main personality, destroy her, and occupy the body. That's about the principle." Wang Haochen said calmly, "Usually, the good personality should be in control, and the evil personality only wakes up and acts at critical moments. Now that the culprit has taken action, the evil personality will naturally cooperate."
As he spoke, Wang Haochen turned his gaze to Ling Lixuan, "It is not difficult to destroy her, and there are ways to capture her. The problem is how to separate the good and evil thoughts, and only eliminate the evil thoughts and retain the good thoughts. I am not the type who specializes in consciousness, and I can't do this. If this continues, I am afraid that it won't be long before her evil thoughts completely devour her good thoughts. To resolve the current dilemma, you need your strength, and use your sincerity to call back her consciousness, so that her personality can grow again and fight against the evil personality, or even suppress it, and wait until the matter is over before making the final decision."
Ling Lixuan remained silent.
He is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, a true god-level strong man, and an important fighting force of this coalition. He possesses the sacred attribute that can restrain demons, and can also add sacred attributes to everyone through his domain. He is an important force in determining the outcome of the battle.
If he stayed, it would mean the battle would most likely be lost, and all of them would fall into the abyss.
But if he chose to fight, it would mean that Xue Menghuai would never be saved. Her personality would be devoured, and even resurrection would be in vain. She would never be able to regain her original personality.
As soon as Wang Haochen thought about it, a giant python emerged from his body and quickly wrapped around Xue Menghuai.
"Make a quick decision. Our surprise attack must be carried out as soon as possible. We must make a decision whether to leave or stay." Wang Haochen's voice unconsciously became a little colder.
Ling Lixuan gritted his teeth and said, "I choose to stay."
Wang Haochen looked at him without any emotion, without saying anything more, his figure flashed and he disappeared without a trace.
Ling Lixuan knelt down as if he had lost all his strength. He raised his head, looked at Xue Menghuai in front of him, and stretched out his hand.
Xue Menghuai said sarcastically: "Do you think she will be happy if you choose this? You have no respect for your people, and you have the nerve to be the king of this country?"
Ling Lixuan's face turned pale and he couldn't say anything for a moment.
At this moment, Meng Hongchen appeared quietly. She looked at Ling Lixuan and said, "Don't forget your choice, don't forget your duty, and don't let your sacrifice go to waste. As a knight, you should protect your lord. As a husband, you should protect your wife. This is not an escape. You have already mustered up the courage to face it, so you should do your best. Don't be depressed because of her words. What you should do is to show your true heart and use love to call back her will."
Ling Lixuan's eyes became firm. He looked straight at Xue Menghuai without looking sideways and said, "Menghuai, do you still remember when we first met..."
Seeing Ling Lixuan start to move again, Meng Hongchen also flashed and disappeared.
Xiaopang stood on the top of the observation deck and looked at Bai Chenxiang, Wang Haochen, and Meng Hongchen who had arrived. "You are here."
"Is this really a good idea?" Bai Chenxiang was a little worried. "It's not just Xue Menghuai. Ling Lixuan should have also been planted with an invisible demon seed a few years ago. Although they checked it at the time, they probably failed to eliminate the personality alienation that originated from the spiritual root. It's not just Xue Menghuai who needs treatment. He himself is also at risk of mental alienation. Let the patient treat the patient, the final result may very likely be..."
"Now we can only choose to believe in his will." Wang Haochen said coldly, "We can't delay any longer. Everything must be done decisively. In this situation, the longer we delay, the worse the war situation will be. The interference of the law of depravity is more serious than we imagined. There are already some people who have not been planted with demon seeds but have been eroded because of their weak will. In the worst case, if this front is breached, the entire Tiandou Empire will fall into chaos, and everyone will either die or be demonized and become a member of the enemy. We can't delay any longer."
"Let's go. You guys are responsible for the secret surprise attack. I will use the army of soul beasts to attract the enemy's attention and tie down their main force." Xiaopang said in a deep voice.
Wang Haochen and Meng Hongchen flashed and went deep into the demon army with several god-level warriors, while Xiaopang and Bai Chenxiang led the rest of the people to hold the front line.
"Is it really okay?" Bai Chenxiang asked softly.
"What can we do if there is a problem?" Xiaopang said calmly, "It's not just them. We have also been affected by mental alienation. You have become more emotional, and I have become calmer and more ruthless. Lao Wang's rationality has been extremely magnified, and Meng Hongchen's sensibility has also been magnified. Everyone is the same, affected by mental alienation, just to different degrees. We haven't shown symptoms of split personality yet. Under the current circumstances, his choice is the wisest, and we have no choice."
Xiaopang opened the treasure book, and living soul beasts leaped out of it and launched an attack on the overwhelming demon army.
Shells were flying everywhere, and they chose to take the initiative to attack, but the direction of the attack was completely different from the direction of the summoning array of the big demon.
The demon army finally made some movement. They transferred their main force to the direction that was severely attacked, formed a formation to resist, and at the same time evacuated the people in the attacked area in an orderly manner. The whole process was neat and orderly, just like well-trained soldiers.
"Demons are based on freedom and chaos, but they can be trained to such a level in a short period of time..." Xiaopang pondered, "The inheritance of knowledge and magic industry technology... It should not be just that demon king. The various demon gods should have learned different levels of knowledge and opened up enough wisdom to pass on knowledge in a tree-like hierarchical manner... In other words, to deal with those demon gods, we must be fully prepared and prevent their cunning, instead of just focusing on the comparison of strength..."
On the other side, Wang Haochen, Meng Hongchen, Long Yuan, Yu Haoqiong, Tan Hongfei, Piao Wuxue, God of Aurora, Chixiao Sword God, Bard, and a dozen god-level powerful men appeared near the summoning formation.
They all used invisibility soul guides, but it seemed to have no effect.
The demon pillars gathered together quickly, and demons came one by one to block them.
Wang Haochen raised his eyebrows, he found that these demon pillars seemed to be created by magical technology rather than traditional refining techniques.
Seventy-two demon pillars quickly formed a formation and trapped them inside.
“The forged Ten Earths and Nine Heavens God-Slaying Formation…” Wang Haochen glanced at it, “But without the aura of the God of Creation, it will never amount to anything great.”
"The seventy-two demon gods in the main formation are all god-level. Although they are basically just entering the god-level, they are still difficult to deal with." Long Yuan looked around, "Is there any way to break the formation?"
"Just destroy any pillar." Wang Haochen snorted, "Watch me corrode it with poison."
As Wang Haochen spoke, his mind moved, and wisps of poisonous gas suddenly rose in the surrounding area.
The formation rotated, forming a barrier that kept the poison gas inside and prevented it from penetrating.
"It seems that your poison gas has no effect." The God of Aurora was a little helpless.
“It’s not that there is no effect. Even this large formation can be corroded by my poison gas. It just takes longer than expected.” Wang Haochen smiled.
"Time waits for no one. Who knows when their summoning ritual will succeed, and what level of enemy they can summon." Scarlet Sky Sword God said, "We must think of other ways."
"Your attack power is not enough, so let me try to break through by force." Meng Hongchen said, and a green short blade appeared in his hand, which was the Sky-Cutting Blade.
The Sky-Cutting Blade is a genuine superior artifact. Although its grade is not as good as Wang Haochen's Soul-Snatching Card, it is much more effective in dealing with the current dilemma. After all, the Soul-Snatching Card cannot attack this kind of barrier and can only target spiritual consciousness.
She leaped into the air and spun rapidly, forming circles of storms that blew towards the barrier like a tornado.
The barrier suddenly began to shake rapidly and was in danger.
Wang Haochen continued to release poison gas, adding the last straw to the barrier.
The next moment, the barrier was broken. The Demon Pillar alone was unable to resist the erosion of the poisonous gas. The magic array patterns on it were quickly corroded, and the alloy material became riddled with holes.
A group of demons came out together and started a fierce battle with them.
Wang Haochen displayed his martial soul's true form and transformed into a ten-headed green phosphorus poisonous dragon king. He shuttled among the demons without any intention of engaging them, and soon arrived in front of the summoning circle.
However, at this moment, layers of light appeared on the magic circle, and a figure appeared.
It was a demon dressed like a human, with a strong demonic aura emanating from him. He chuckled and said, "It seems that you are still a step too late."
Wang Haochen sensed the other person's aura and said silently: "Are you Beryl?"
"It's just a clone." He smiled, "But there are always super god-level ones. You are no match for me now."
“We have to fight to know.” Wang Haochen said, and instantly retreated back to the demons, hiding his body in the chaos, while releasing a large amount of poisonous gas, corroding those demons and demon pillars.
"You talk nicely, but you just run away." Belial said with some disdain, "Form a formation and seal it off."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the seventy-two demon pillars that had been corroded by the poison suddenly recovered as before and formed a formation again, sealing Wang Haochen and the others inside.
Beryl showed a calm smile on his face.
