No Source
The stream flows gently, birds sing and flowers bloom, and cicadas continue their song.
A melodious murmur echoed across the clearing surrounded by trees.
"Soul Strengthening."
In the pavilion,
After being released, Tianyan immediately closed his eyes, circulated his Qi with one hand for a few seconds, and cast a Heavenly Word Mantra to stabilize the Charm God Flower Poison and Heavenly Desire Lust Poison that had been drawn out.
sound falls,
The girl slowly opened her eyes, her golden pupils filled with disdain as if she were looking at a pervert:
"You are utterly shameless."
Xu Yuan smiled slightly, "Thank you for the compliment."
"No need to thank me, I can tell you more if you want." Tianyan narrowed her beautiful eyes, a fleeting hint of killing intent flashing within them.
"."
Xu Yuan shrugged, indicating that she could continue.
Xu Yuan saw the killing intent in Tianyan's eyes. He had no doubt that Tianyan wanted to break free from his shackles, nor did he doubt that the other party wanted to tear him to pieces.
However, the insults from his enemies were the best praise, so he always liked to accept them without question.
He was naturally aware that Tianyan had broken free of his restrictions.
Having obtained sufficient information to ensure their own safety, no one would willingly remain under someone else's control, let alone a proud genius like Tianyan.
Fortunately, this "washboard saintess" seemed to value her chastity highly.
Although the Charm God Flower couldn't completely control Tianyan's mind, it kept her on the verge of exploding.
During the month before the effects of the Charm God Flower wear off, Tianyan should be relatively well-behaved.
But let's get back to tonight's Elegant Gathering.
Elegant Gathering, especially Elegant Gathering of the Qionghua Sect.
Xu Yuan was still very curious about this matter.
But facing so many familiar faces right away, without any memory of them, carries too much risk of being exposed.
His understanding of Jing He was limited to the phrase "one becomes a cherry blossom, the other becomes a leech" from Cangyuan. He knew very little else, not even what kind of Cultivation Method the other party practiced.
Xu Yuan paused for a moment, then steered the conversation back on track, saying:
"Let's cancel tonight's Elegant Gathering."
Tianyan could distinguish between what was important and what was urgent. After calming down completely, she replied in a low voice:
"We need to gather information about what happened ten thousand years ago, and tonight's gathering of clan members is a good opportunity."
"But the risks are also very high." Xu Yuan disagreed.
Without hesitation, Tianyan replied, "We're already deeply trapped in this strange illusion. Tell me what we can do that's not too risky?"
"We have no memories now, but at the very least, we can learn some basic information from those ordinary disciples."
Having overheard the conversations of the ordinary disciples, Xu Yuan discovered that he and Tianyan held high positions among the second-generation disciples of the Qionghua Sect, and that they could use this status to obtain a great deal of information.
"Basic information?" Tianyan sighed. "What do you think those lower-level disciples could possibly know? Only the geniuses and children of the higher-ups in these sects know what we want to know. You heard what those people said earlier Jing He was clearly not a talkative person. Just keep quiet at the Elegant Gathering."
Xu Yuan remained silent for a few moments, then hesitated slightly before saying:
"Hmm, what is it we want to know now?"
"."
The air suddenly became quiet.
Tianyan remained silent for two seconds, then stared at Xu Yuan with the look of someone who was looking at an idiot:
"Naturally, we must find the source of this illusion."
Xu Yuan didn't mind Tianyan's gaze at all, and simply asked in return:
"What place do you mean by 'source'? The Sect Master's Bedchamber? Or the back mountain of the sect?"
In Cangyuan, the deepest part of the Qionghua Palace map contains these two places, but the source of the illusion clearly cannot be these two places.
Upon hearing this, Tianyan sighed softly and said in a low voice:
"This is an illusion created by the Charm God Tree Spirit, and its source is most likely related to the Charm God Cherry Tree."
Xu Yuan's eyes were strange, and he pondered for a moment:
"You're looking for the Charm God Cherry Tree?"
Tianyan nodded, pointed in a direction, and whispered:
"Of course, but the Charm God Cherry Tree hasn't appeared yet at this point in time."
Xu Yuan also glanced in that direction.
The sense of direction is good, much better than at the Big Ice Block; that is indeed Cherry Leech Lake.
However, upon hearing this, Xu Yuan's expression became even more peculiar.
Tianyan then proceeded to analyze on his own:
"The reason I wanted to contact those people was because of this matter. Before the Enchanting Charm God Cherry Tree, a sacred tree that guards the sect, matures, the sect will secretly protect it. Lower-level disciples have no chance to contact it; only core disciples can."
"Alright."
Xu Yuan couldn't help but interrupt her analysis.
Tianyan paused, staring at him.
Xu Yuan also pointed in the direction of Cherry Leech Lake and asked:
"Are you sure the 'source' of this illusion is that Charm God Cherry Tree?"
"That's most likely the case."
"."
Xu Yuan let out a long breath, leaned against the stone railing of the pavilion, and looked back at the clear blue sky:
"Then there's no need to look anymore; we estimate we're not going to get out for the time being."
"."
Tianyan stared at Xu Yuan without speaking, sitting quietly and waiting for him to give his reasons.
Xu Yuan remained silent for a long time before pointing to Tianyan's body.
Tianyan's eyes showed some doubt.
Xu Yuan suddenly said:
"You are the Charm God Cherry Tree."
"What?"
"The identity of the ' Wang Yuchu ' you destroyed earlier was that of the Charm God Tree Spirit."
The pavilion was quiet, with cicadas chirping and birds singing all around, and a gentle breeze rustling through the treetops.
Tianyan opened his mouth slightly, forming an "O" shape.
Xu Yuan raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, then sighed:
"Are you sure there's a 'source' in this illusion?"
Tianyan snapped out of his reverie, nodded, his clear voice tinged with solemnity;
"Since we are both here now, this illusion involves the technique of connecting our Will Soul. The caster must have left a 'source' within the illusion to maintain our connection."
After listening, Xu Yuan hesitated slightly before asking:
"This is an illusion created by the Charm God Tree Spirit. Could it be different from ordinary illusions? And would the method to break it be different as well?"
Tianyan frowned, staring at Xu Yuan, and said, word by word:
"What I just said is the fundamental principle of soul power circulation."
"." Xu Yuan.
The two remained silent for a long time.
It's stuck; the progress that had broken through the illusion between the two has come to a complete standstill.
Because the source cannot be found.
Night falls, around 5 PM.
Seafood Pavilion)
Xu Yuan and Tianyan still attended this Elegant Gathering of core disciples of the Qionghua Sect.
If they need to stay in this illusion for an extended period of time, they do indeed need to learn a great deal of information.
The Cultivation Method Jing He practiced, the interpersonal relationships between the two, and their specific sect affiliations.
Moreover, they must find out whether there are any Charm God Cherry Tree in the Qionghua Sect, or even just Charm God Tree Sapling.
Including Xu Yuan and Tianyan, there were eleven people at this gathering.
Six men and five women booked the entire first-floor Seafood Pavilion room at Haiweiju.
Those who came were at least fourth-rank, belonging to the core of the Qionghua Sect.
Senior Brother Li doesn't look like a cultivator; he looks more like a scholar, but he's very strong. He's probably the strongest person present.
Xu Yuan's current cultivation level is not comparable.
