Chapter 978: Breaking the Illusion

They were no longer a pool of stagnant water.

As long as there was a chance, no one would do nothing.

As night came, everyone’s expressions were filled with strange anticipation. It could be said that they had really been aggrieved for a long time.

Many people began to chant the Heart Cleansing Incantation to maintain their clear minds.

Su Xiaolu was also very interested. She wondered what would happen tonight.

She whispered to Zhou Zhi, “I’m very curious. What if it meets someone like

Fourth Brother who doesn’t dream?”

Zhou Zhi smiled and said calmly, “Then I’ll probably starve to death.”

Su Xiaolu shook her head. “That’s impossible. It’s not easy to maintain the illusion. Once you don’t have enough spiritual energy, this illusion can’t be maintained. You will definitely be able to walk out.”

Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and thought that she was really smart. These people had been trapped for so long and did not notice that something was wrong. Su Xiaolu noticed it the moment she entered the illusion.

“No matter how powerful an illusion is, it’s useless against people who are

bewitch you.”

Zhou Zhi watched Su Xiaolu as he spoke and felt that the more she lived, the more open-minded she became. She was not obsessed with anything. This also indirectly meant that Su Xiaolu would go far.

Su Xiaolu narrowed her eyes and smiled. She smiled and said, “Thank you for your praise, Fourth Brother.”

As the night went on, Su Xiaolu felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier.

This time, she did not dream of getting married again. Instead, she was in a quiet place, as if she was the only one in the world.

There was no noise, no danger, no life.

Su Xiaolu had no desire to explore. She lay down and continued to sleep.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.

Everyone was discussing. This time, there was actually no one missing. Everyone was talking about how to break through the dream.

Someone dreamed of his mother cooking and washing clothes. This time, he didn’t enjoy it anymore. Instead, he killed her.

Some people had beautiful wives in their dreams. This time, they did not indulge in pleasure and killed them directly.

No matter what kind of illusion it was, after their hearts became clear, they would never fall into it again.

This time, there was no victim. That proved that the people who disappeared previously were stuck in an illusion and had unknowingly disappeared.

Although no one could get out, at least no one would die.

In the next few days, everything was safe and sound. Everyone slowly recovered their energy.

They also realized that the sky was gradually brightening. It was no longer dark and uncomfortable.

At dawn, the illusion disappeared without a trace.

They did not see anything. They vaguely knew that it was a mature snake, but how powerful was it? What if they could kill it?

Of course, there were also people who wanted to retreat. Now that they had a chance to go out, what were they waiting for?

Those who were ambitious refused to leave, and those who knew their limits went out together.

Of the more than 40 people, only 20 were left.

Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi naturally moved forward.

Occasionally, snake figures could be seen in the black sand. The more they walked, the more they saw.

They were all poisonous snakes.

Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi walked in front while the others followed the two of them from afar.

Su Xiaolu saw some snake skins. She had also collected them. Snake skins

could be used as medicine.

They did not know how far away that treasure was. There was a faint sweet smell in the air, but after walking for so many days, they could only smell its fragrance and not find it.

As they continued deeper, there was only an endless black mountain range in their eyes. They could not see the bottom of the path they had taken. If they could not find the direction, they would not be able to leave even if they wanted to.

There were more and more snakes, and they were fierce and poisonous. Ordinary insects were useless. Even the medicine Su Xiaolu refined could not completely drive them away.

Those who did not have medicine had long stopped insisting on returning together.

Only Su Xiaolu, Zhou Zhi, Huang Zheng, Huang Tao, the old man, and a few attendants were still moving forward.

They even caught up to Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi.

Along the way, Huang Zheng and Huang Tao watched Su Xiaolu collect these snake skins and take out the stove to refine medicine. They were extremely envious.

When the medicine gradually lost its effect, Su Xiaolu refined a new one. This time, the snakes did not dare to approach. However, being surrounded by so many snakes still made them very uncomfortable.

“Miss, can you exchange some more with me? When we get the treasure this time, I’m willing to give you 30%.”

The old man looked at Su Xiaolu and said. Only Su Xiaolu had medicine to dispel poisonous snakes. Although they would not die after being bitten by the poisonous snakes, the physical pain caused by the poison was still very uncomfortable. The old man thought about it and came up with this idea.

Huang Tao and Huang Zheng also looked at Su Xiaolu and said, “Miss, the two of us are also willing to split 30% with you.”

This foreign land was so special, it was obvious that there was a supreme treasure. In the face of benefits, no one was willing to give up halfway.

Su Xiaolu rolled her eyes and said to them, “Since it’s a rare treasure, the capable ones will naturally obtain it. Everyone will obtain it with their own abilities. Do I want you to share it?”

“Rather than talking about benefits first, it’s better to think about it yourself.

Can we continue?”

The snakes blocking the way ahead were getting bigger and bigger. Although they were afraid of the effect of the medicinal powder, many of them still attacked.

Su Xiaolu had long hated these people. Why did they keep following her and Zhou Zhi? This place was so big. Couldn’t they go in another direction?

They still wanted her to give them benefits. She didn’t want to.

Su Xiaolu refused. Huang Zheng, Huang Tao, and the old man were stunned and speechless.

They had no choice but to look at Zhou Zhi.

The old man spoke first. “Young Master…”

Before he could finish, Zhou Zhi held Su Xiaolu’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”

As soon as they left, Huang Zheng and the others had no choice but to follow.

It was obvious that they were unwilling to give up now. If they were separated from Su Xiaolu, the medicine on them would definitely lose its effect quickly and they would be bitten to death by a snake, so they could not be separated from Su Xiaolu and the others.

The rest of the journey became even more difficult.

Snakes the size of a wrist flew over to attack from time to time. Apart from Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi, the others had no choice but to slash the snakes with their swords.

However, these snakes’ skins were very hard. It was very tiring to kill them.

When they stood at the top of the mountain and looked at the huge black snake in the depression below, everyone held their breaths.

The huge snake was as thick as a bucket and was at least the size of three people hugging each other. It was coiled up like a small mountain. He was surrounding a flower. The seven-colored bud with the sweet smell of spiritual energy emitted from this flower.

The sleeping snake was guarding the precious flower. If one wanted to pluck it, one would definitely wake it up.

“Is, is it going to transform into a dragon?”

Huang Tao swallowed. He was severely shocked. His entire body was covered in dried snake blood. Seeing such a huge snake, he could not help but be excited. Not only had such a huge snake absorbed a lot of spiritual energy to become strong, but if they drank its snake blood, it would also benefit them greatly.

If this powerful girl wanted to take the treasure, she would definitely kill this giant snake first. If he could not take the treasure, snatching some snake blood and snake meat would be good too..
