"Your illusion did not deceive others. It deceived yourself, and... This world!"
Lin Chen stared coldly at Li Mingzhen before him, a rare trace of astonishment appearing on his face.
Because if he had observed reality from the Dream Realm just now, then unless his judgment had been wrong, the other party had indeed used an illusion technique.
But the target of that illusion was not Lin Chen. It was himself—his very own self!
He had deceived himself into believing he was Gu Wushuang, Dao Child of the Taiyi Immortal Sword Sect, deceived himself into believing he was an unparalleled sword cultivator, then lost himself in an illusion that could not even confuse an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.
What made Lin Chen feel absurd and unable to comprehend was that it would have been one thing for the man to willingly lose himself in an illusion, but unbelievably, he had truly deceived himself and become an unparalleled sword cultivator. He had even wielded supreme sword arts such as Sword Qi Thunder Sound, Sword Light Differentiation, unity of man and sword, and One Sword Silences All Laws.
If I deceive myself into believing I am something, I become that thing—and even gain that person's abilities and methods, able to transform into anyone in the world... This Spiritual Power Method is simply absurd opening the door for absurdity—absurdity all the way home!
This was the first time in Lin Chen's life that he had seen such an unreasonable method!
And it did not stop there. The other party's illusion seemed to be affecting this world as well.
If superior sword techniques depended on the person, then the birth and transformation of sword qi were a resonance between a person and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. Cultivators who did not walk this path
