Tian Buyi nodded at He Dazhi, signaling that he had remembered. He twirled the "Scarlet Flame" in his hand into a sword flourish. "We can't hear it, but your Little Junior Brother can. Then it's very likely that thing is..."
He Dazhi had thought of it now as well. "What we see is the sea, yet it's like a mirage! Could it be..."
With that reminder, Tian Buyi also abruptly recalled that thing's true form.
"Could it be that we've been inside an illusion all along?" Tian Buyi spun once in place in shock, looking all around him, wanting to see something.
"There!" Luo Yunji suddenly shouted, and then a strip of ice stabbed straight into the black fog.
Then everyone saw the black fog around them writhe violently, before truly drifting or falling like ashes, covering both sky and earth. Within their field of vision, there was nothing but ash.
Suddenly, everything brightened before their eyes, and the silhouette of a massive creature appeared in the distance.
"Mirage Beast!" Old Ancestor Fengyue's eyes widened in disbelief. He simply could not imagine that they had been inside an illusion all this time. The ancient ruins, the Ancient Remnants—could they all have been fake?
"Why didn't we discover it before?" Ghost King stared at the strange beast in the distance, his brows tightly furrowed.
"It can only stay there. It can't move!" Luo Yunji looked at the Mirage Beast in the distance and replied.
"It can't move?" After hearing that, Ghost King turned to Luo Yunji and asked again.
"Mm! It looks like it's about to die!" Luo Yunji swung his legs and patted He Dazhi beneath him. "Senior Brother! It seems..." For a moment, Luo Yunji could not find the words to describe it.
"Go over and take a look?"
