Chapter 81 The Past in Illusion
"Is this an illusion?"
Lin Chen couldn't help but frown slightly as he looked at the scene in front of him.
In front of me, it looked like a huge basement.
Occupying most of its position was a pool of bubbling blood, and Lin Chen could even smell the rusty smell permeating the air.
"What exactly is this place...huh?"
Lin Chen was thinking about it, but he seemed to sense something. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently retreated to a corner not occupied by the blood pool, and used the invisibility technique.
Since the transformation of his soul and the birth of spiritual consciousness, Lin Chen has improved the invisibility technique twice, allowing people to subconsciously ignore his existence, thus achieving something similar to psychological invisibility.
Although this is just an illusion, Lin Chen is just a bystander in the illusion, and people inside cannot detect his existence, but there is nothing wrong with being cautious.
Boom!
With a loud noise, a stone door was opened in a wall of the originally sealed basement, revealing the upward stairs inside.
At the same time, the formation restrictions were opened, and then there was a crisp sound of footsteps in the passage.
Lin Chen watched quietly from the side, but after seeing the person who came down clearly, he couldn't help but look suspicious.
Because the person in front of me is the ancestor of the Lin family!
Behind him were those who had returned from the Qingyun Sect, including Lin Tianhang.
But at this moment, they were unconscious, levitated in the air by the power of the ancestor of the Lin family.
‘Sure enough, this old guy seems to have reached some kind of agreement with the demon cultivator, exchanging the lives of the Lin family of the Qingyun Sect for the so-called life-extending blood pill? ’
Lin Chen watched coldly in the dark without making any move.
Let alone the fact that he has nothing to do with it, even if it does, it's just an illusion, and he can't change anything.
'But, having said that, who pulled me into this illusion? ’
While Lin Chen was thinking, the ancestor of the Lin family snorted coldly.
"It's really troublesome, we have to keep them awake." He snapped his fingers, and the unconscious people slowly woke up.
"What kind of place is this?!" After everyone present woke up, their expressions changed.
Although they didn't know the current situation, they realized something was wrong when they were brought to this place inexplicably.
"Ancestor, what do you mean?!" Among the crowd, Lin Tianhang, who had just woken up, was stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something and stared at the old man of the Lin family.
He followed the other party's order and brought the person here, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the ancestral hall, he would be suddenly attacked by the other party, and he would bring him here directly after he woke up.
"What do you mean?" The ancestor of the Lin family smiled indifferently, "Of course I ask you to sacrifice for the Lin family!"
"What?!" After hearing this, everyone present looked horrified.
They were not stupid. When they saw this strange blood pool, they realized that what happened next was definitely not a good thing!
"Old man, are you crazy?!" A female cultivator in the crowd said angrily, "My aunt is an elder of the Qingyun Sect. If you touch me, she will definitely not..."
"Let's start with you." The ancestor of the Lin family was unmoved. With a move of his hand, the chattering female cultivator was picked up by a huge force, and then she was thrown into the blood pool with a look of horror on her face!
"No!" The female cultivator wailed hysterically.
Afterwards, everyone in the venue saw a horrifying scene.
The blood in the blood pool seemed to have life, seeping into the female cultivator's body bit by bit, causing her to scream fiercely.
Then, under the horrified gazes of everyone, the female cultivator's skin squirmed, and finally, like clothes, it was taken off from her body, and she turned into a skinless and bloody person!
In the blood pool, countless bloody hands suddenly stretched out and pulled him into the bottom of the pool.
Not long after, a hand stretched out from the blood pool again, and then a skinless blood man emerged from the blood pool, picked up the human skin floating on it, and put it on his body bit by bit. Finally, he turned into a human. The original female nun.
She was floating on the blood pool like this, with a charming face and an indescribable enchantment all over her body.
As if sensing everyone's attention, he turned around with a smile on his face that made everyone's hair stand on end.
'The soul fluctuates and the breath is exactly the same...' Such a strange scene made even Lin Chen, who was hiding in the dark, shrink his pupils.
‘Is this the deal the ancestor of the Lin family made with the demon cultivator? ’ Lin Chen’s heart trembled.
Through the blood pool, replace everyone who came to the Qingyun Sect?
Not only that, Lin Chen also recalled that before leaving, he found that the number of Qingyun Sect's outer disciples coming down the mountain increased sharply in the data, and his eyes froze.
How many of these people really have something to deal with down the mountain, or have they been led into this blood pool for various reasons?
If you look at it this way, how many of those disciples who have returned to the sect are normal?
‘Didn’t Qingyun Sect’s [Guard Grass] detect any abnormality in these disciples? Or...' Lin Chen couldn't help but frown, seeming to realize something, staring at the blood pool in front of him.
Xuanyin Sect is good at corpses and souls, and Qingyun Sect's main defense is also in this aspect. Now that a demonic cultivator force has appeared that is good at playing with blood, I am afraid that the senior leaders of the sect...
On the other side, the ancestor of the Lin family was also a little frightened, but he quickly stopped because he knew that he had already come this far and could not allow him to retreat.
"Don't worry, you will go down to accompany her soon!" After thinking about this clearly, he completely lost his temper and acted cruelly.
Suddenly, nearly ten people were thrown into the pool of blood.
"Ancestor, I was wrong, save me!"
"Ancestor, don't kill me, don't kill me, I will work hard for the Lin family from now on!"
"Old man, I'll fight you!"
In desperate situations, some people knelt down and begged for mercy, and some stood up to resist, but due to the huge power gap, it had no effect at all.
"Why! Why!" Lin Tianhang naturally resisted desperately, but was directly knocked away by the aftermath of a spiritual spell and fell to the ground vomiting blood.
But Si Hao ignored the injuries inside his body, stared at the Lin family ancestor with red eyes, and roared angrily.
"Why?" The ancestor of the Lin family smiled coldly, "Of course it's for profit and longevity!
"Are these illusory things really so important, even more important than blood and family ties?!" Lin Tianhang said with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Bloodline, family ties?! Hahaha, your damn parents are pretty smart, how could they give birth to such a stupid and naive person like you!" The ancestor of the Lin family couldn't help laughing wantonly after hearing this.
After a while, he stopped smiling and stared at Lin Tianhang coldly, his expression so cold that it made people feel chilly.
"It's really funny! Don't you want to see the power of blood and family ties? Okay! Then I'll let you see it!"
The ancestor of the Lin family said: "If anyone of you can throw him into the blood pool today, I will let him go!"
"This..." Everyone present was stunned when they heard this, and looked at each other with strange expressions.
"Don't be fooled by him, this is a plan to sow discord!" Lin Tianhang was stunned for a moment, and then shouted.
"Do I need to challenge my strength?" The ancestor of the Lin family sneered, "Of course, you can also choose not to believe it and besiege me together. I don't mind either."
"Let's join forces... um!" Lin Tianhang was about to say something, but suddenly he was stunned and turned around in a daze.
Because a young monk directly attacked him from behind. If it weren't for the self-activated defensive weapon on his body, he would have been seriously injured by this attack!
"What are you doing?!" Lin Tianhang looked incredulous.
The man in front of him is his uncle's son.
When he became successful, he helped their family a lot. After his father died, he regarded them as family members and even helped each other so much, but the other party stabbed him at a critical moment? !
"I'm sorry, Brother Tianhang, I just want to live." The young monk he was looking at said in a low voice, not daring to look directly into his eyes.
"We can work together to escape!" Lin Tianhang roared.
escape? Escape from someone whose level is higher than yours?
The young monk was silent for a moment, and then said: "Brother Tianhang, you no longer have a family, but I am different. I still have parents and a junior sister. I can't die here. You have helped me so much, so I don't mind anymore." Will you help me this time?”
Then, he attacked Lin Tianhang again, and the people around him looked at each other and did the same.
Lin Tianhang looked at the scene in front of him with red eyes. He never thought that his relatives and friends who had helped him in the past would kill him in times of crisis in order to survive!
All of a sudden, the rest of the people in the field surrounded Lin Tianhang!
But with one enemy against many, he not only did not lose, but defeated several people in a row, and went straight to kill the ancestor of the Lin family!
He couldn't do what his former relatives and friends did, so he had no choice but to capture the thief first and capture the king first, trying to kill the ancestor of the Lin family!
"Hmph! You are not overestimating your own abilities!"
The ancestor of the Lin family sneered, his true energy turned into a big hand, and he fanned out hard!
Lin Tianhang roared angrily, and a ball of green spiritual fire emerged from his body. He even took out a powerful spiritual weapon and rushed forward.
Obviously, he wanted to resist this blow.
Bang! puff!
But unfortunately, the gap in realm is not so easy to make up for. He was shot directly into the wall and blood spurted out.
"Let's stop here!" The ancestor of the Lin family looked cold, and his big spiritual hand covered it, wanting to throw it into the blood pool.
But when the big hand of spiritual energy covered it, it suddenly froze, and then collapsed!
Um? !
The ancestor of the Lin family was obviously stunned and took a closer look.
I don't know when, but a light blue aura suddenly appeared around Lin Tianhang. Not only did it defeat the aura master in one fell swoop, it also completely protected Lin Tianhang within it.
At the same time, his aura was rising steadily at this moment!
"Forced promotion?!" The ancestor of the Lin family looked stagnant.
Naturally, he could see that the other party was forcibly advancing to the foundation building stage!
But which monk, when advancing to the foundation building stage, doesn't look for an excellent safe place, a place with abundant spiritual veins, and then attack when his body is in the best condition?
This was the first time he had seen someone like Lin Tianhang who was seriously injured and had a breakthrough during the war.
"Ha, you are seriously injured, and you are still attacking the foundation in a place where spiritual energy is lacking. You are really asking for death..." The ancestor of the Lin family was about to sneer, but the sneer on his face suddenly froze.
Because of the light cyan aura on Lin Tianhang's body, all the injuries on his body were healed within a few breaths.
Not only that, there were pieces of spiritual stones flying out of the storage bag, and even the light red mist on the blood pool began to gather towards him. After a while, the prototype of a spiritual energy vortex was formed!
What the hell? !
The ancestor of the Lin family was completely shocked. This was the first time he had seen such a strange scene in his nearly two hundred years of life!
‘No, we can’t let him break through successfully! ’ The ancestor of the Lin family reacted instantly and took action without hesitation.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Tianhang's spiritual light was so powerful that no matter how he attacked, he couldn't shake it at all!
"No!" The ancestor of the Lin family was completely furious.
He knew that he must not let the opponent succeed in breaking through. He was almost reaching his limit, and his combat effectiveness was not as good as before. If there was a real life-and-death fight, he would definitely lose!
‘No, we must interfere with his breakthrough! ’ The ancestor of the Lin family stared at him, seeming to have thought of something, and said with a vicious look on his face.
"Do you remember your father? You don't really think he died of illness, do you?!"
"What did you say?!" Lin Tianhang couldn't help but open his eyes when he heard this.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, the ancestor of the Lin family couldn't help but smile coldly: "He didn't die of illness, but gave me a special medicine to make it look like he died of illness.
"After you bury him, I dug him out and used it to make a life-extending blood pill!"
"What?!" After hearing the news, Lin Tianhang froze, his eyes widened in vain, staring at the ancestor of the Lin family, "What are you talking about??!"
"Did you know? When refining blood pills, one needs to stay awake." The ancestor of the Lin family said with a cold face, "In order for him to hold on, I threatened him that if you can't hold on, I will I’ll use you to refine the blood elixir.”
"After hearing this, he finally cooperated obediently. But your father is indeed a man. The skin on his body was stripped off, and all the bones were removed, leaving only a ball of flesh and mud, and he could still hold on. Oh, what a great fatherly love!”
"You are looking for death!" Lin Tianhang was completely angry. He even ignored the violent spiritual energy pouring into his body and rushed towards him like the ancestor of the Lin family like crazy.
If Lin Tianhang can endure it for a while and succeed in breaking through, he will definitely win.
But now that he is rashly breaking through the process of breaking through, when he is already weak, how can he withstand the charged attack of the ancestor of the Lin family?
"Death to me!" Seeing that his plan was successful, the ancestor of the Lin family sneered on his face, and then took action with all his strength.
In a few breaths, a lifelike fire dragon took shape. A dragon swung its tail and directly drove Lin Tianhang, who was flying in mid-air, into a pool of blood!
