Return

*** Tong Ye was so shocked by what An Hei had said that she was speechless. After a long while, she finally said, "It can actually trap us in the Illusion Realm in an instant. What kind of item is Jiu Yin?"

An Hei made no attempt to conceal his intentions, taking out the wooden mask and saying, "Wearing it allows me to cast illusions and bewilder others."

"Really?" Meng Liang was clearly quite suspicious.

An Hei glanced at the other person, then put on the mask. Then, everyone, including Li Wei, saw that there was another Meng Liang in the room. His demeanor, actions, and expressions were exactly the same as those of Meng Liang.

"I believe you!" Meng Liang shouted.

Then, the other Meng Liang blurred and became An Hei again.

Qiao Yan used this to make us think he was dead. After being thrown into the Inner World, he secretly went into hiding. I think the reason he wasn't attacked by the Axe Man was because he overheard our conversation. At that time, he was probably in my room, but he used the Illusion Wood to prevent us from seeing him. Then, he caught the crows I released in the Inner World, which is why he was safe. He was probably constantly hunting crows, so the other Reincarnators couldn't rely on the crows to avoid the Axe Man's attacks. The reason he finally found me was because he felt that most of the other Reincarnators were dead, so he wanted to kill me and escape from that dangerous Inner World."

The An Hei texture of the cone solved another question in everyone's mind. Li Wei never expected that the reason they couldn't find the crow was because of Qiao Yan.

Li Wei glanced at the An Hei and said, "This... the Dao Demon Golem extremely powerful. Bi Yin is an S-rank artifact. Qiao Yan, in order to break the seal of a magic artifact, didn't hesitate to act and scheme against the martial artists, but his luck and strength were both bad. As for you, haven't you been tempted by that magic artifact? You know, if you break a magic artifact, you will gain another powerful special skill." Zheng Yutong and Meng Liang also wanted to know the answer to this question, so they both turned their gaze to the person behind the An Hei had a calm expression and seemed not to care at all.

"You are my partners. To abandon your companions for a special skill is a very foolish idea. Besides, have you ever thought that if I were to kill you all in my own Inner World, wouldn't I also be unable to leave the inner world? Being killed by monsters only leads to endless resurrection, and you can't leave the Inner World." In Li Wei's view, this answer was completely unnecessary. The first sentence he secretly wanted to say was what he really meant.

"Yes, we are companions, "Li Wei nodded, a slight smile appearing on his lips. Those who knew him would know that Li Wei was genuinely happy at this moment because there were only four reincarnators left, and there were still four days left until the mission's deadline. In that case, the remaining three would probably have to experience their own Inner World. However, with their previous experience, they only needed to be killed by their companions as soon as possible to escape from the dreamlike Inner World. So, for the next two days, Zheng Yutong Li Wei, and Meng Liang all appeared behind the inner vision device.

Among them, Li Wei's Inner World was considered by the three to be the most terrifying and dangerous scene. Even An Hei mentioned that experience more than once. In his words, Li Wei was definitely a monster, and Li Wei's inner world was a hundred times more terrifying than An Hei's. If it weren't for Li Wei's strong will, which allowed him to control the monsters and killing intent in the Inner World several times, An Hei and the other two would probably have died more than ten times over. After passing through Li Wei's Inner World, the final day in Meng Liang was much easier. They secretly analyzed that they might find something very useful in the Inner World, just like the Dao Demon Golem. The treasures in the Inner World were even more powerful. So, Li Wei, An Hei, and Zheng Yutong stayed in Meng Liang's Inner World for two whole days.

As for Meng Liang's subconscious perception of being a monster?

Those things were a joke to Li Wei. Compared to monsters like the Axe Man, the monsters in Meng Liang's world were nothing. Li Wei's Ink Dragon swept away all the monsters. Although these monsters were still very powerful because they were not dead, they were not a threat to Li Wei. In two days, Li Wei and the others found some useful items and Skill Book. There were two items and one Skill Book.

The items are the Corpse Bell and the Soul Bell. Ringing the Corpse Bell allows you to control a corpse, while the Soul Bell has the same effect, but controls a soul.

The Skill Book contains a C-level skill called Soul-Transforming Palm, a cultivation technique with power equivalent to Li Wei's Cloud Piercing Palm. Although its destructive power is not as great as Cloud Piercing Palm, its strangeness is far superior.

The Soul-Transforming Palm can directly damage the soul of the deceased. Enemies with weak souls or low spiritual power can be defeated with a single palm strike. Often, the entire spirit is reduced to a cloud of ethereal soul water, completely annihilated, the soul scattered and gone. It can be described as a vicious and insidious technique. All of these items were found in Meng Liang's Inner World.

Therefore, the choice was given to him first, and Meng Liang didn't stand on ceremony, directly taking away the Skill Book"Soul-Transforming Palm," while the Corpse Bell and Soul Bell both went to An Hei.

Li Wei wasn't interested in these items and Skill Book. Besides, Li Dao already had a plethora of attack and control skills. Having too many skills in one area was actually a bad thing; the saying "don't bite off more than you can chew" applies here.

Zheng Yutong is similar to Li Wei; she is agile, skilled in ranged attacks, and proficient in archery and short blades. Therefore, she has little interest in such a ghostly and eerie item.

So, An Hei took the two bells without hesitation. For someone who enjoys researching certain things, such strange and powerful tools were perfect for him. After returning from Meng Liang's Inner World, the four of them took turns performing the mission. Since there was still a whole day left before the mission ended, the four of them decided to wash up and rest. The day before yesterday, they had all lived on the brink of life and death.

On the last day, Li Wei unexpectedly had a very pleasant and relaxing time. The television did not show any more looping scenes; everything seemed to have returned to normal.

The Seven Friends World arrived in the blink of an eye. Li Wei and An Hei, who were growing increasingly impatient, emerged from the room. After meeting up with Zheng Yuting and Meng Liang, the final moment of the mission arrived. Mission complete! Three seconds later, return to Shadow Street.

Finally, it was over, and all four of them, including Li Wei, breathed a sigh of relief. From 20 people at the beginning, only four remained now. These seven days had brought them memories they would never forget.

Everyone faced their deepest fears and survived. While Li Wei and his companions didn't see a significant increase in combat strength, their composure and adaptability were greatly enhanced. Now, even Zheng Yutong, who is terrified of ghosts, can smile when she sees a suddenly appearing evil spirit.

At the same time, a deadly moon arrow was shot into the opponent's body.

During the teleportation countdown, Meng Liang uttered something that made Ji Wei and the others burst into laughter. "Is this mission just to test our courage?"

Even darkness seemed to have shifted its focus elsewhere? Unwilling to watch this guy after seven days together? Meng Liang was still someone worth getting to know better. Although his combat strength wasn't high, his special skills were extremely rare— the Ghost Controlling Technique, which allowed him to command and control evil spirits in battle. His prop, the Hundred Ghost Banner, was said to be able to hold a hundred evil spirits.

When facing an enemy, a single flick of the large banner can unleash a hundred demons—a terrifying display of power.

In the instant the white light flashed and teleported the four away, Li Wei suddenly realized that Meng Liang's words might have some merit. Perhaps this mission was meant to force the reincarnators to confront their own and others' fears, thus testing their individual combat strength. Those lacking sufficient combat power...

Those who survive will be directly killed by the monsters that appear in the Inner World; only the strong can survive. On the other hand, it should test the reincarnator's observation and analytical abilities. If no way out is found, even the strongest person will die in that terrible nightmare.

A shift in light and shadow? The next second, Li Wei was back in Shadow Street.

Walking into the unique alleys of Shadow Street, Li Wei didn't immediately return to the real world. Instead, he strolled around Shadow Street. He had already told Meng Liang the location of Three Heroes City, and this partner was also very willing to join his team.

After turning through several alleys, Li Wei arrived at the Free Market. Its prosperity was in no way inferior to, and perhaps even surpassed, the markets in high-end towns in the real world.

The market still offers a wide variety of goods, though high-end items are scarce; most are low-end products.

After all, only a few top-tier players can survive the Shadow Street missions. Although there are many, quite a few die in each mission. Most newcomers are brought in every seven days to maintain the market's prosperity. Naturally, the items here aren't of particularly high quality.

Wandering around the various stalls, Li Wei occasionally glanced at the goods. Most were Skill Book, weapons, and armor—there were quite a few as well. For reincarnators who hadn't cultivated martial arts, defensive armor was still very necessary, since they didn't have true qi armor.

Good armor can provide them with extra protection.

As for weapons? They were the fangs of a reincarnated being; their heavy-duty nature was self-evident. Looking at the longswords and shorts on the stall, Li Wei only glanced at them and knew these were the lowest quality goods. Of course, there were also quite a few weapons that Li Wei had used in the past—knight's swords.

Even the Crimson Sword Thunder God's Sword were for sale, but the prices were outrageously high. Passing a stall, Li Wei glanced around; it was a place selling various Skill Book. Just as he expected, they were all low-level Skill Book. Li Wei was about to walk over, stopped when he saw a Skill Book.
