"Submit to me!"
The Third Prince's Spiritual Force surged forth instantly, his eyes filled with domineering arrogance.
Zhang Junbao gradually fell into another scene. The scene in front of him quickly twisted and transformed into a huge palace. In the palace, the image of the Ninth Prince was like a god, hundreds of meters tall, with his eyes shining brightly, covering the sun and moon in the sky.
His aura was overwhelming, with countless halos rising behind him, seemingly containing infinite mysteries. Even true Immortal God did not possess such an aura.
Zhang Junbao, standing before him, seemed as insignificant as a tiny insect.
"Mortals, how dare you not kneel before a god? I am the ruler of the empire, how dare you commoners resist!" The Ninth Prince's voice boomed like thunder, his power immense and deafening. If it were an ordinary Star Level expert, they might be filled with fear and thus be killed by the Ninth Prince.
But Zhang Junbao only glanced at him and sighed helplessly.
Why do some people always think they are invincible and want everyone to obey them?
I've already said I'm busy, why be so pushy? In this secret realm, you gather your subordinates, I'll find my tree fruits, let's keep to ourselves, isn't that better?"
Zhang Junbao's mental cultivation had already seen through everything, and his consciousness was not affected at all when he was trapped in the illusion. Moreover, his soul was protected by the Void Tower, Soul Defense Secret Technique that even the Immortal Expert Hu Yanbo valued highly. Even the Universe Level Illusion Demon Tree could not break through it. For a third prince at the Star Level Ninth Stage to expect Zhang Junbao to submit to such an illusion was simply wishful thinking.
An illusion, like a paper tiger, can break the mind of the weak, but it has absolutely no effect on a powerful cultivator like Zhang Junbao who sees through everything.
Let alone emperors, even if it were a truly Immortal God, he might feel admiration, but he would have absolutely no fear.
Zhang Junbao unleashed a beam of light, and the Third Prince, who had been swaggering around the palace like a god, instantly deflated like a punctured balloon and vanished completely.
Only the Third Prince in reality was left shouting in surprise.
"Impossible! How dare you, a commoner, disrespect even the Emperor of the Empire!"
Although several minutes had passed in the illusion, in reality, it was only a moment.
"Call out"
The black wheel-shaped Spiritual Force weapon that the Third Prince launched was intercepted by the Arc Blade Disc before it could travel very far.
"Now that you've made your move, there's no need for me to hold back."
"Impossible, how could you possibly break my illusion?"
My illusion technique, " God Suppression," is even more powerful than the Universe Level Illusion Demon Tree!
In the Third Prince's terrified eyes, a scarlet moon was reflected, and his body was strangely covered with a protective armor composed of numerous fragments of gold.
"I am a top genius, I am the third prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, you cannot kill me!"
"Peng" "Peng" "Peng"
The crimson Half Moon spun wildly, transforming into a blood-red Full Moon that sliced through the Third Prince's protective armor. The Third Prince's proud face turned utterly terrified, and the fear of death caused him to let out a final scream.
You can't kill me!
Zhang Junbao ignored his nonsense and used his Full Moon -shaped Arc Blade Disc to pierce through the Third Prince's armor, blasting his body into bloody pulp.
In battles between Illusionist, victory or defeat can be decided in an instant. If an opponent is trapped in an illusion and cannot wake up in time, the Illusionist can instantly kill them.
But once their illusions fail, they can only compete with ordinary Controller using their Spiritual Force.
Even in his death, the Third Prince could not believe that his illusion technique, " God Suppression," was the legacy of an Immortal God from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Even a Universe Level powerhouse would need some time to break free from the illusion, and that time would be enough for the Third Prince to kill his opponent.
But to everyone's surprise, Zhang Junbao broke through the illusion after falling into it and blocked his attack.
He has defensive armor, which consists of psychic weapons that can block most psychic attacks.
With its powerful illusions and the combination of telekinetic weapon attacks with the terrifying mental illusion technique " God Suppression," it can absolutely cause most enemies to lose their senses and be killed instantly.
This is the source of the Third Prince's confidence.
He is a rare genius in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and is expected to become a shining new star in the upcoming Genius Battle, winning glory for the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. He is also the prince with the best chance of inheriting the throne of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
But now, all those fantasies have vanished with the death of the Third Prince.
After the death of the Third Prince, in a sacred place somewhere in the distant Black Dragon Mountain Empire, a figure named Meng Rang opened his eyes. His eyes were as vast as the sun and moon, radiating dazzling light.
At this moment, the figure was extremely furious, and his anger turned into real flames, burning all the servants serving in the holy land.
"Who, who on earth dared to kill my grandson? I will make him pay with his life!"
The figure let out a furious roar, and the entire holy land trembled violently.
"Investigate for me! My grandson is the third prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, Special Grade Elite of the Virtual Universe Company. Where exactly did the accident happen?"
A few minutes later, a dark figure crept in, trembling.
"Reporting to Your Holy Master, the Third Prince recently went to the Lost Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company for training, and all eight guards who accompanied him have perished."
Lost Secret Realm?
Hmph, how could a mere illusionary realm possibly cause my grandson's death? Someone else must have attacked him.
" Hargrave, it must be him, that damned old man! He can't stand that my grandson is better than his good-for-nothing grandson, so he dared to have my grandson assassinated. Does he really think I, Rekton, am easy to bully?"
Rekton roared with a ferocious expression, and the servant who came to report the news below was directly killed by the oppressive aura emanating from Rekton.
Rekton vanished instantly, leaving behind only corpses scattered everywhere.
One day later, at the manor where the Lost Secret Realm is located.
"Boom!"
The heavens and earth trembled slightly.
Everyone guarding this place looked up in shock, including Ming Yu, who had forcibly taken Zhang Junbao and the others away. A fiery red, pyramid-shaped spaceship appeared in the sky.
" Machine Race spaceship?"
Ming Yu stared wide-eyed at the sky in disbelief.
Within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, only a handful of people possess Machine Race spaceships, and each of them has a significant background. Just by looking at the appearance of this spaceship, one can tell it is no ordinary vessel.
The spaceship's hatch opened, and a burly man with red eyebrows, red hair, and scales on his face, his expression filled with rage, appeared in the sky. His eyes shone like the sun and moon, and as he swept his gaze across the crowd below, he exuded a terrifying pressure that caused all the Universe Level powerhouses present to involuntarily prostrate themselves in worship.
Even Domain Lord Level powerhouse like Ming Yu felt the pressure emanating from the depths of his soul, so much so that he couldn't lift his head and could only barely keep his body from kneeling down.
"Lord Rekton!" All the powerful figures present, including Ming Yu, bowed respectfully.
"Who's in charge here?" Rekton whispered, and everyone felt an unprecedented, terrifying pressure pressing down on their bodies, causing blood to flow from their seven orifices.
Rekton, known as the " Raging Flame World Lord " in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, is an extremely domineering person. Anyone who disobeys him will be suppressed by him. He is a very famous powerhouse in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
Despite his headache, Ming Yu stepped forward and respectfully said, "I am Ming Yu, a subordinate of Man Luo, and I am here on Lord Man Luo's orders to guard this place. This is the genius assessment secret realm of the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company. May I ask what brings Lord Rekton here?"
"I'm asking you, is my grandson Keller in the secret realm?" Rekton asked in an unfriendly tone.
"According to the information, His Highness the Third Prince is indeed in the secret realm and has not left," Ming Yu replied.
"Good!
"Get out of the way! My grandson Keller has been assassinated in the secret realm. I must bring back his remains!" Rekton said.
"Lord Rekton, this is the examination secret realm for Star Level geniuses of my Virtual Universe Company. Only Star Level martial artists are allowed to enter."
"No one else is allowed to enter!" Ming Yu resolutely refused.
Although Rekton is a notorious butcher in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, having killed countless people, Ming Yu is backed by the Virtual Universe Company. As long as things are within the rules, the Virtual Universe Company will always be his support.
The Black Dragon Mountain Empire is not enough to make the Virtual Universe Company concede.
"Get out of my way! My grandson perished in the secret realm. Don't I even have the right to bring back his body?"
Not only that, if I find out that any of you are involved in Keller's death, none of you will escape!
A glint of light shot from Rekton's eyes, and Ming Yu was sent flying.
Upon seeing that Rekton was trying to force his way into the secret realm, Ming Yu immediately sent an urgent email to Man Luo to report the situation.
Then Ming Yu stood firmly in front of Rekton, certain that even in his fury, Rekton wouldn't dare to kill him. Killing him would mean making an enemy of the Virtual Universe Company.
Rekton, a World Lord, could Rampaging within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, but in the vast universe, he was utterly insignificant.
Get out of my way!
Rekton was furious; Ming Yu's repeated obstruction had only fueled his anger. Rekton Keller, considering him his most gifted bloodline descendant.
The struggle between the strong is not only a contest of their own strength, but also involves the struggle of their descendants.
Every powerful person who establishes a family will have a talented descendant who will be given special attention and training, and who may become his help in the future.
Keller's death deprived him of a powerful opportunity and weakened his power in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Keller was originally very likely to inherit the throne of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, but now, all of that has vanished.
After years of hard work and investment, all of which went up in smoke, Rekton's anger was almost uncontrollable.
At this moment, Ming Yu was still blocking his way, practically standing on the edge of a knife.
Enraged, Rekton unleashed a powerful attack, causing Ming Yu to cough up blood and slam his body against a large tree at the entrance of the secret realm.
In an instant, the temperature throughout the manor soared, flames erupted from the bodies of the Universe Level guards, who collapsed to the ground in agony, their lives hanging in the balance in Rekton's hands.
"Hmph, even if you're from the Virtual Universe Company, and you're powerful, you can't provoke us!"
Rekton didn't dare to actually kill Ming Yu, as that would trigger a direct manhunt from the Virtual Universe Company. However, if it was just a minor punishment, even if the Virtual Universe Company wanted to cause him trouble, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"I'll settle accounts with you after I've dealt with Hargrave!"
After saying that, Rekton and the others boarded the Machine Race's spaceship and disappeared into the sky, leaving behind only a group of people from the Virtual Universe Company wailing.
Rekton was also worried that Man Luo was nearby, and if he really provoked Man Luo to come and corner him, the matter might not end well.
However, his attack just now allowed a spark of fire to silently seep into the secret realm.
His idea was simple: the person who killed the Third Prince must be inside the secret realm. His attack, though weak in killing, could disrupt the spacetime within the secret realm, creating a spatial distortion that even Star Level genius inside could withstand.
Now that his grandson Keller is dead, what does the life or death of other geniuses have to do with him? Even if the Virtual Universe Company discovers the changes in the secret realm, he can claim that it's an anomaly in the Lost Secret Realm. Without direct evidence, they can't do anything to him.
Inside the secret realm, Zhang Junbao suddenly felt the surrounding temperature rise sharply, and the entire space became extremely unstable.
"Oh no, could it be a space storm?"
"How could a spatial storm possibly occur in such a training ground?" Babata exclaimed.
Zhang Junbao had no time to hesitate; his domain instantly covered his entire body, merging his body into the space.
Like a fish in a chaotic space, drifting aimlessly with the spatial storm.
Upon discovering the spatial storm, Luo Feng instantly killed all the other geniuses around him. He then switched to the Golden Horned Beast Golden Horned Beast, hiding beneath it and using its powerful body to withstand the onslaught of the spatial storm.
The most perilous encounter was between Hong and Thunder God. After continuously breaking through the illusions, Hong not only reunited with Thunder God but also arrived near the true form of the Illusion Demon Tree.
The Illusion Demon Tree detected the spatial storm even earlier than they did, and its massive form rapidly shrank. Hong's mind raced, and the instant he saw the Illusion Demon Tree Illusion Demon Tree, he grabbed Thunder God and charged towards it, burrowing directly into its body!
"Damn it, you human, what are you trying to do?" The Illusion Demon Tree was both shocked and terrified. In this critical moment, Hong not only didn't run away, but actually rushed into its body. He was utterly shameless.
"Don't be so stingy. If you can get through this, I'll show you what a real illusion is!" Hong hurriedly transmitted his voice.
He was also gambling, betting that after so much mental bombardment, he had torn a hole in the Illusion Demon Tree's psychological defenses.
If the Illusion Demon Tree harbors even a sliver of greed, it might not choose to waste time killing him at this crucial moment.
Clearly, Hong's gamble paid off. The Illusion Demon Tree shrank to its limit, its entire body reduced to the size of a small tree just over a meter tall. Even Hong and Thunder God, who were inside, had their bodies compressed to the extreme.
