An unexpectedly severed connection, caught in an illusion

Su Zhan was anxious and restless because he couldn't get reliable information.

Going into every room one by one would be too risky, so the only option was to summon countless monsters to search and investigate.

When it comes to gathering information and searching for Artifact in every nook and cranny, nothing is more suitable than Rats.

Then, Elder Shishan turned around and inadvertently saw the Rats that had set off from around Su Zhan, a vast and overwhelming force!

I was really startled.

The appearance of a dense swarm of rats was indeed eerie. He calmed himself down and sighed.

Through the tireless exploration of the Rats, Su Zhan discovered a strange, Secret Room.

He tried to go in the direction the Rats was heading, but as soon as he stood up, he attracted the attention of those around him.

Although these people had traveled with Su Zhan, they were not yet familiar with each other. Only Elder Shishan had the audacity to come over and ask Su Zhan if he had made any discoveries and what he planned to do.

And he assumed a posture of accompanying them. When Su Zhan turned around, he found that those people were also eager to try and follow him.

He considered it for a moment and said, "You guys stay here for now. Too many people will make us too conspicuous and could easily lead to an accident."

Those people thought about it for a moment, then blushed; it seemed they were the ones who had caused the previous disturbances.

They were much older than Su Zhan, and should have been helping Su Zhan, but instead they caused him a lot of trouble.

It seems so useless that Su Zhan always has to step in to rescue them...

The group sat down again. They weren't even planning to take you along, so why bother trying to be nice to them?

Su Zhan walked alone through one tomb passage after another. Because of the Rats' previous exploration, he knew where the traps were and where to avoid them, so the journey was relatively smooth.

Just when he thought he was about to find his target, his connection with the Demonic Rat was severed.

He was frantically searching for a signal, and he'd already come this far. If he still couldn't find any clues, wouldn't he have come all this way for nothing?

As the saying goes, perseverance pays off, and after a while, the connection was restored.

Before he could even feel happy, he discovered that he had sensed another connection, followed by three, four, five... more and more, with the connections from that Demonic Rat filling all around him.

Su Zhan panicked for a moment, then figured out what was going on.

Illusionary Technique!

It must be Illusionary Technique!

I don't know when I was affected; was it Illusion Formation or a bewitching incense?

No matter what methods he used, he had no way to solve the problem now. All he could do was open his eyes wide, take out a knife, and slash his own hand.

I tried to use pain to awaken my consciousness, but it didn't work.

He could still feel wave after wave of calling, surging towards him from all directions, urging him to come...

He shook his head, trying to get all those jumbled thoughts out of his head, but no matter how hard he tried, it was no use.

He didn't bring the Moon Beast with him when he first came out; otherwise, the Moon Beast could have helped him. What should he do now?

He gritted his teeth, holding the knife warily, standing there, afraid that in his unconscious state he might attract some danger that could kill him.

Sun: Big brother, big brother, what's wrong? Is something the problem?

Su Zhan: You guys are still here! I feel like I'm in a daze.

Sun: That shouldn't be! You've cultivated the "Sun God Art," and your physical Mental Power isn't weak either. You shouldn't fall into the Illusion Formation so easily!

Sun: Especially now that I've gained consciousness, you should be immune to ordinary Illusionary Technique.

There's no time to dwell on the origin of this Illusionary Technique; the most urgent thing is to get out of this state.

Right now, he just can't see clearly and doesn't know what will happen next.

It's hard to guarantee that they won't wander aimlessly through the dangerous tomb like those who were previously bewitched by Illusionary Technique.

That was no joke; he had no helpers and had to rely on himself.

Sun: Come, try to use my energy, put all your power into your eyes, and your vision should be restored in a short time.

Following her instructions, Su Zhan channeled all his strength into the Cultivation Method the "Sun God Art" into his eyes.

I brought two fingers together and ran them across my eyes. When I opened my eyes, my vision was clear.

He was still in the dark Tomb Passage, only halfway there.

Clearly, he had already fallen into the trap on the way, and completed the latter half of the Tomb Passage in the illusion.

Once you've confirmed you can see the outside world, Sun says, "Now quickly summon the Moon Beast; only he can help you fully regain consciousness."

Su Zhan said, "The Moon Beast isn't with me. How can I summon it?"

Sun: Since you've already formed Contract, and such a high-level Contract, how could you possibly have no way to react? Try it!

Su Zhan had no choice but to bite the bullet and summon the Moon Beast he Contract with.

With no experience and no theory, I could only learn by trial and error, silently chanting in my mind: Moon Beast! Moon Beast! Moon Beast...

After several repetitions, I felt a truly mysterious connection, as if the Unseen were somehow linked to the distant Moon Beast.

A moment later, the Moon Beast hurriedly ran towards him, muttering as it ran, "Next time you come to such a dangerous place without me, you can just wait to die!"

Then she ran over and bit Su Zhan's hand hard. Not satisfied with just that, she left several more teeth marks around his hand.

Su Zhan looked at his body covered in wounds and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She said to him, "Even if you're angry, you don't need to bite so many times."

Moon Beast: "It's not out of kindness; I'm just trying to infuse you with more spiritual Spirit Energy to increase your defense."

Moon Beast: "You won't be so fragile anymore then, who would want to take a bite of you?"

After saying that, he arrogantly walked to the side. Su Zhan watched him lie down with his butt sticking out, ignoring everything else.

Helpless, I scooped him up from the ground, held him in my arms, and continued walking.

The reason he noticed the strangeness of that tomb chamber early on was not because the Rats saw anything or sent any special signals.

Rather, it's because the Demonic Rat hasn't sent out any signals since entering the tomb...

Su Zhan searched everywhere but found no useful clues, as if they didn't exist in time.

This precisely illustrates the point: the tighter the defenses and the more novel the tactics employed, the greater the likelihood of finding something of value there.

They carefully considered whether to go back and call upon those powerful individuals, but ultimately decided against it.

Not only would I not be of much help, but I would also have to secretly take the Artifact fragments. With too many people watching, it would be difficult to make a move. It's better if as few people as possible know.

Su Zhan is no Ordinary Grade person; he can handle many things on his own.
