Chapter 1262 Mental Breakdown

When Lex teleported onto the planet where Jeffrey was, he was not the only one who was making a move. Countless forces had already begun to act. The war had begun, his targets just didn't know it yet.

Involving a Dao Lord would be dangerous as it would attract attention. Fortunately, he knew plenty of Celestial Immortals as well.

"Are you sure we can't follow you?" asked Fahad, the Celestial Immortal Henali.

"Not yet. Wait for my signal," said Lex, accepting the immortal's enchantments onto his body. It would take another Celestial immortal, and a strong one, to discover Lex. This was the absolute minimum precaution he had to take, since he didn't know what he would be facing.

As soon as Lex teleported onto the planet, he hid himself, and waited. His arrival on the planet went undetected, since everything about him was hidden.

Yet he saw two immortals acting against Jeffrey, which wasn't good. Jeffrey was still integral to their plans, so Lex purposefully revealed an illusion of himself for the others to discover. While the two Heavenly Immortals were distracted, he used his stealth to kidnap Jeffrey. At the same time, he began to search Jeffrey's memories to see if this was some kind of trap, but discovered nothing useful.

Now Lex needed to delay long enough for the Inn to connect to this planet, since he had already initiated the process. Hopefully, the dragons would also trace Jeffrey till here, since the green aura was apparently still on him. In that sense, delaying was better, so Lex began wasting time.

He even conjured the illusion of a fake devil to distract everyone. Without Fahad's enchantments this would be impossible, since he could not fool two Heavenly immortals, but with them it was a piece of cake.

A few minutes of banter later, the Inn was connected, but Lex was taken by surprise when it turned out Jeffrey had been putting on a performance. You really can't trust terrorists these days.

Fortunately, Lex was also just putting on a performance.

"I told you to just hand over Damian, Jeffrey, but you wouldn't. Now watch and suffer as I defeat the last restraints of your feeble mind, and pull that information out of your brain."

Pel Jr. roared, causing not just the planet, but the whole star system to tremble. The red formation around the planet shattered, and across the galaxy many dragons felt an unfamiliar dragon marking his territory.

Thunder and lightning flashed in the sky, for though Charle's tribulation was not as absurd as Lex's, it was far from simple, causing the laws in the region to fall into chaos.

Across the Origin realm, many strong beings finally noticed that something was being obscured, but they could not tell what it was just yet.

On the planet, Jeffrey started hyperventilating as Pel Jr. and the two Heavenly Immortals flew into the sky, beginning their combat for dominance.

The real Lex strolled up behind Jeffrey, touched him with his finger, and caused him to fall into a real illusion.

His body and spirit, which were greatly sensitive to illusions now, panicked and warned the wyvern that he was in an illusion, but the wyvern misunderstood. It thought that this was merely Lex finally allowing him to sense the illusion.

"Show me all your other secret plans, brother Jeff," said an illusion of Lex who walked up to the wyvern. "Show me how else you plan on trapping me."

Within his heart, with the danger of the two immortals gone, the Heart demon finally struck, beginning an internal battle to take over Jeffrey's identity. But with his mind falling into chaos, Jeffrey could not put up any resistance at all.

"No, no this can't be happening!" Jeffrey said. "This is not real. This is not real. THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!"

Losing his mind, Jeffrey summoned a locket and crushed it.
