The night sky over the Convergence Zone began to undergo subtle changes. The darkness had not receded, yet stars that should have been absolutely impossible appeared overhead.
Other than that, there seemed to be little change, as if it merely served as a reminder that something had been done to the surrounding environment.
Chen Chuan did not let his guard down because of this. Appearing unchanged did not mean nothing had changed, because he could not be sure whether what he saw was still the original thing.
Moreover, he knew well that some changes could occur imperceptibly.
Besides, even if one knew the changes in the external environment were false, that did not mean they would have no effect on people.
This was especially true for the mind and the field. Once one grew accustomed to and adapted to these false things, if they suddenly underwent some kind of change, it would be enough to cause an instant, subtle adjustment in both body and mind. In battle, such an adjustment could become an opening.
Of course, these were not difficult for him to overcome, but their effects likely went beyond what he could currently see. He needed to be more careful.
He stood quietly where he was. How he fought next would depend on the situation; first, he would see what the other side did.
He found out soon enough. Several Yuan Congyes and Tie Rugans appeared across from him, every one of them displaying identical fields and auras. For the moment, there was no way to distinguish real from false.
He also had to consider that, with the aid of Lost Objects, the false ones might not necessarily lack combat strength.
From the beginning, their purpose had been clear: Yuan Congye's Exotic Power was at the core of it.
