Zhang Junbao's domain expanded, covering his body with an invisible layer of domain armor that prevented Zhang Junbao from being affected by other people's domains.

He was like a dragon lurking in the sea, roaming freely. One after another, Phantom Body flashed, which was the secret technique of the Space Movement Technique, Ten Thousand Line Flow. Hundreds of Zhang Junbao's Phantom Body made it difficult for the Star Level genius opposite him to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Zhang Junbao's Ten Thousand Line Flow had reached the third level, the Hundred Line Flow Technique. At this moment, facing thousands of Star Level geniuses, he did not hesitate at all. The thirty-six blades that the Arc Blade Disc had broken out of were like thirty-six scarlet blood moons, breaking through the shackles of the mist and hanging horizontally in the air.

The eerie crimson moon tore the geniuses controlled by the Illusion Demon Tree to pieces.

Unless one has some understanding of the Space Law, it is impossible to distinguish which one is Zhang Junbao's true form.

When faced with a powerful individual whose whereabouts are impossible to track, no matter how many people there are, it will be of no use.

This is Zhang Junbao's moment of carnage!

Half a day later, Zhang Junbao stood alone atop the pile of corpses, proudly independent.

These geniuses from various planets of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire gathered here, only to become puppets of the Illusion Demon Tree, completely losing their minds and trapped in the illusion from which they could not extricate themselves.

Zhang Junbao was not Illusionist and did not know how to dispel their illusion.

However, he knew very well that those who could become deeply trapped in the illusion must have strong convictions or regrets in their hearts, which allowed the Illusion Demon Tree to exploit their weaknesses and create an illusion in their minds, making them unwilling to leave.

Zhang Junbao calmed his breathing. The manipulation techniques of the Illusion Demon Tree were not particularly sophisticated. The Star Level genius it controlled had already had a lot of Cosmic Energy absorbed, possessing a high realm but unable to exert much strength, and could only be killed by Zhang Junbao.

Just as Zhang Junbao closed his eyes to recuperate, a faint fluctuation of Spiritual Force, concealed by the mist, quickly enveloped him.

"Huh? Where am I?"

Zhang Junbao suddenly found himself in a hospital, his father lying on the bed, dying, while Zhang Haobai and a group of bodyguards blocked the doorway.

" Zhang Junbao, you're not leaving this hospital today. You and your damned old man are going to be beaten to death by me!" Zhang Haobai shouted arrogantly.

But Zhang Junbao completely ignored him, instead wandering around the ward, observing carefully.

"The illusion created is indeed quite realistic. Even Zhang Haobai's annoying face is made so realistically. Well done."

It's a pity you're all show and no substance. You don't even understand the laws of Earth. Trying to deceive me with an illusion is just too naive.

They don't even understand human nature; the illusions they create can only fool brutes. To a true master of self-cultivation, they are nothing but a joke.

Let's disperse!

Zhang Junbao threw a punch out of thin air, and the illusion before him quickly dissipated, returning him to the Lost Illusory Realm.

Before his eyes, Hong, Luo Feng, and Thunder God were all not far away, trapped in an illusion, their expressions pained, as if they were experiencing something terrible.

Zhang Junbao wanted to move forward to inspect the area, but he stopped after taking only one step.

"A double illusion, that's interesting. No wonder you could fool so many geniuses from across the universe. You're quite the clever one, truly remarkable," Zhang Junbao said with a smile, expressing his admiration.

It must be said that the illusion created by this Illusion Demon Tree is indeed very realistic. It's just a pity that there are too few regrets in Zhang Junbao's heart that can be explored. The only regret he had about his father has already been resolved by him.

The idea of using Zhang Haobai to restrict him is nothing but a joke.

However, after Zhang Junbao broke through the First Layer illusion, it quickly set up Second Layer illusion. If you are not careful, the person who broke through the first illusion will think that he has returned to reality, and thus let down his guard and fall into the illusion again.

This is precisely where the Illusion Demon Tree excels.

" Luo Feng may not be able to transcend suffering yet, but Hong and Thunder God's mental cultivation is far beyond what a mere tree like you can compare to. Even if you trap them in an illusion, it's impossible to make them lose their composure and fall into such pain."

The intensity of the illusion here is already quite high; it seems we're not far from the true form of the Illusion Demon Tree.

Moyun, point the way.

Zhang Junbao delivered another punch, blasting Luo Feng and the others in front of him into pieces.

Meanwhile, in a corner of the Lost Secret Realm, Hong, who had just killed his enemies, also fell into an illusion.

"Hahaha, interesting! This Illusion Demon Tree is so interesting! It actually created a life-and-death experience for me, and even the experience of the mutation that occurred on Earth was unearthed. It's perfect for my ' World Destruction ' spear intent!"

Ever since I mastered the secret techniques of other powerful beings in the universe, I have been thinking about whether I could integrate these techniques with my " World Destruction " spear intent, but I have never been able to find a way.

Since Junbao was able to integrate other secret techniques into the True Meaning of Taiji, I should be able to do the same.

Now I've finally found a sliver of an opportunity.

Illusion Demon Tree, I know you're listening. Why don't you come with me? You don't understand people's hearts, you haven't experienced the trials of the mortal world, and you simply don't understand the power of the mind.

Such illusions are merely superficial. You'd be better off following me and using your ability to create Life and Death Illusion to integrate into my World Destruction Spear Technique.

"At that time, even if they are the top geniuses in the universe, so what? I can still kill them with a single shot!"

Hong's voice rang out, easily breaking the illusion created by the Illusion Demon Tree, and he even tried to abduct the Illusion Demon Tree.

After embarking on his cosmic adventure, Hong Cai truly demonstrated the prowess he once displayed as the strongest man on Earth.

Any hardship or obstacle, in the face of his strong mindset, becomes a trial in the mortal world, strengthening his resolve.

The Illusion Demon Tree was furious. Its once invincible illusions were being repeatedly broken today. And Hong actually wanted to subdue it—it was an utter disgrace!

"You're not convinced? Then continue. I'll show you that your illusions are all garbage!"

Hong also went head-to-head with it. If it were a direct attack, Hong might be a little wary, but the Illusion Demon Tree's attempt to control Hong through illusions was simply wishful thinking.

Even the illusion created by the Immortal Phantom Spirit King Immortal Expert at the King Level, couldn't do anything to him, let alone a mere Universe Level Illusion Demon Tree?

Seeing the scene change again, Hong was secretly delighted.

"This Illusion Demon Tree's obsession runs too deep. It could have easily defeated me with the genius it controls, but instead, it insists on using illusions to control me."

It has extreme confidence in the illusion it creates, which is a good thing. As long as there is an obsession, there will be psychological loopholes, which is the opportunity to create an illusion. Since you've created an illusion for me, why don't you try my methods too."

Hong's approach was straightforward. He didn't use his domain and Cosmic Energy to create an illusion to fight against the Illusion Demon Tree. In terms of energy control, he was far inferior to the Illusion Demon Tree. However, compared to finding psychological loopholes, even ten Illusion Demon Tree combined might not be as effective as him.

Hong kept provoking the Illusion Demon Tree, aiming to completely destroy it at its most proud point, only then would there be a chance to subdue Illusion Demon Tree.

Thunder God also broke free from the illusion, and Luo Feng was even more direct. Although his mental cultivation was not high, it was exceptionally firm, and his heart could not tolerate the slightest impurity. Therefore, it was extremely difficult for the illusion to distort his thinking.

The Lost Secret Realm, the most dangerous illusion for other adventurers, was not so terrifying for Zhang Junbao and his companions.

On the contrary, the geniuses who are also undergoing trials are in greater danger.

On the third day after entering the secret realm, Zhang Junbao finally met a genius who was not controlled by the illusion.

Following the instructions of Cloud-Touching Vine, Zhang Junbao continued to approach the main body of the Illusion Demon Tree. During his flight, he discovered a place where the mist was thin.

Based on experience, this should be the Illusion Demon Tree using the geniuses it controls to attack the others.

"Hahaha, what a coincidence, this prince is also a Spirit Reader and Illusionist. Trying to control me? Wishful thinking!"

Batu, you lot, how dare you attack a prince! You might as well just die!

Zhang Junbao saw a handsome man in magnificent armor wielding a Spiritual Force weapon, killing several similarly dressed martial artists.

Judging from their attire, they seem to be related to the handsome man who claims to be a prince.

"Who?"

Zhang Junbao wanted to leave, but he was discovered by him, probably because he was carrying advanced detection equipment.

"I'm a trainee from the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company. You can continue; I have no interest in your grudges." Zhang Junbao turned to leave.

" Black Dragon Mountain Branch, I am the third prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Keller, since you are a genius of my Black Dragon Mountain Empire, then follow me." The third prince Keller said, not giving Zhang Junbao a chance to refuse.

The Third Prince? Could he be the Ninth Prince's older brother? A thought flashed through Zhang Junbao's mind.

"I have other things to do, I don't have time to keep you company," Zhang Junbao said casually.

What business is it of his to be a prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire?

"My few followers were fickle and were actually controlled by the Illusion Demon Tree, trying to rebel. I killed them all. Now is the time when I need men. I see you still have some strength. Follow me, and once I obtain the tree fruit, you will be rich and powerful," the Third Prince said proudly.

As the third prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, he possessed strength at the Star Level Ninth Stage and was also a genius Illusionist.

His royal birth tempered his character far beyond that of ordinary people, making him exceptionally talented as Illusionist.

This experience in the Lost Secret Realm is preparation for the upcoming Universe Genius Battle. If he achieves a good ranking in the Genius Battle, the title of heir to the empire will naturally be his.

But to everyone's surprise, shortly after entering the secret realm, the guards who had followed him in were all controlled by the Illusion Demon Tree and instead tried to kill him.

The Third Prince Keller, being born into the imperial family, knew nothing of mercy. A few mere guards dared to turn against him, and he killed them on the spot.

However, he was also well aware of the dangers within the Lost Secret Realm, which is why he wanted to recruit Zhang Junbao when he saw that Zhang Junbao was not under control.

"I told you, I'm busy." With that, Zhang Junbao turned and left. He had no time to play the guard game with the Third Prince.

"You lowly commoner! I am a noble prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire! How dare you, a subject of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, refuse my request? You're courting death!"

The Third Prince was extremely domineering. Zhang Junbao refused his request, which he interpreted as a sign that the Third Prince did not take the Black Dragon Mountain Empire seriously.
