315: The curtain opens

White Brow struck again, but after lightly touching the bodies of those Great Immortals, he immediately gasped and retreated.

On his hand, there were actually frozen blood and ice marks!

A Great Luo Immortal crushes all Great Immortals, and his strength is considered top-tier even among Great Luo Immortals.

Yet now, just by touching those Great Immortals, his palm had actually been frozen.

White Brow had never experienced such a scene before.

He turned to look at Chen Tianming and the other one, then realized that these two were also lower in cultivation realm than him.

Quickly steadying his mind, White Brow remained silent for a long time before speaking slowly.

"These people must have had their minds affected, leading to the separation of their primordial spirits and the collapse of their spiritual power."

The Chess Saint picked up the conversation.

"An illusion? This time, it surely has nothing to do with the Ice Armor!"

After saying this, he looked toward Chen Tianming.

Chen Tianming couldn't help but sneer.

This little brat was still trying to compete for favor; while he bickered with his biological father on the surface, he was actually enjoying White Brow's attention.

He just hadn't realized yet that his biological parents, who had been separated from him for many years, had returned to find him with the sole wish of turning him into a heartless Great Dao production machine.

Whether it was force-feeding or brainwashing, in short, the person known as the Chess Saint would cease to exist.

If his system were discovered by others, his fate would likely be an early end.

But looking at it from another angle.

Attempting to open the heavens with the strength of one person!

Since there are no gods in the world, then create one!

The idea was somewhat domineering, but the methods... were indeed a bit cruel.

Chen Tianming thought this to himself before speaking.

"I am dull-witted and have not yet figured out the reason behind this... If it is an illusion, why are the three of us unharmed and not controlled?"

White Brow nodded.

"Indeed. I possess Sword Intent and Killing Intent, and my Great Dao runs rampant; my mind is incomparably stable, therefore, I will not be affected by mental power."

The Chess Saint also smiled and boasted.

"I have comprehended the Great Dao since birth. From the age I could remember, I have been comprehending it. Accumulated to this day, I have a total of 3,600 Mahayana Dao methods and 9,900 Hinayana Dao methods, so naturally, I will not be affected by filthy illusions!"

His words made White Brow's eyes light up.

And Chen Tianming sighed inwardly, thinking what a total idiot he was.

One shouldn't show off one's wealth, and the same principle applies to Great Dao cultivation methods.

With these words, the Chess Saint had directly exposed his own bottom line.

White Brow was now even more interested.

At this moment, Chen Tianming spoke weakly.

"I... perhaps it is because I have the Ice Armor, so I am immune..."

The Chess Saint immediately spoke up.

"Then, what if you take off the Ice Armor?"

The situation immediately became awkward, and it was dead silent.

Chen Tianming looked embarrassed as he stared at White Brow.

But White Brow had a look of watching a show and had no intention of helping.

Chen Tianming stepped back to walk among the immortals and laughed dryly.

"Hehe, then I had better do it myself! No need to trouble the two of you!"

After saying this, he stretched out his hand and pressed it firmly against a Great Immortal.

A miraculous thing happened.

A transparent Ice Armor instantly appeared on that person's body, with neat shells and dense patterns.

But the depth could not be compared to Chen Tianming's at all.

After being covered by the Ice Armor, the protected Great Immortal stood up immediately.

The first thing he did upon getting up was to swing his blade at Chen Tianming's head like a madman.

Chen Tianming had known in his heart that he would have this reaction, so he quickly cut off the supply of spiritual power and retreated three steps.

He pretended to be panicked.

Without Chen Tianming's spiritual protection, this person was quickly drained of spiritual power and returned to the illusion.

At this time, Chen Tianming continued to act.

"Are they crazy? They want to kill me?"

White Brow frowned tightly.

"I fear this illusion has something to do with you!"

He walked forward in two or three steps and blocked Chen Tianming behind him.

"Daoist Tianming, you can now use the Ice Armor to wake him up again!"

Chen Tianming honestly agreed, hid behind, and poured spiritual power into the Great Immortal's body.

A layer of Ice Armor condensed out.

This person woke up immediately, and at the same time, raised his blade to hack viciously.

Venerable White Brow suddenly raised his hand, and a miniature short sword floated in his palm, shooting out brilliant light. The miniature short sword suddenly grew larger, engraved with dragons and tigers, looking domineering and fierce.

With one sword strike, it pierced exactly at the most subtle and fragile part of the Great Immortal's blade.

With a crisp metallic clatter, the person's broadsword actually snapped directly.

Along with it, his thousand-year essence blood used to nourish the broadsword and the soul within the blade were also destroyed.

Even the Great Dao methods infused into the blade were severed by Venerable White Brow's strike.

"Wake up!!"

With a low shout, White Brow instantly jolted him awake.

The Great Immortal spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt to the ground with a thud.

"Cough, cough! What, what happened!"

Chen Tianming hid behind White Brow.

"You were under an illusion! If I hadn't saved you, you would have died!"

Although the Great Immortal was covered in pain, he still kowtowed in gratitude.

Afterward, White Brow spoke confidently.

"You can call a few more people and wake them all up!"

Chen Tianming also intended to mess with him.

He nodded in agreement, then stretched out both hands, and ice crystals immediately shot out from his fingers.

Ten Golden Immortals revived simultaneously, their powerful killing intent flowing wildly.

In an instant, ten attacks slammed down on Chen Tianming's head.

Upon attacking, they saw Venerable White Brow blocking in front.

The Golden Immortal level is certainly a hundred times more experienced than the True Immortal level.

The moment they attacked, they knew they were under an illusion, and immediately withdrew their Dao intent.

White Brow's attack arrived shortly after.

With one sword strike, the attacks of the dozen or so Great Immortals were shattered upon contact.

Afterward, they all threw down their weapons in unison, bowed, and apologized in unison.

"Venerable One! We were all bewitched by the illusion, which is why..."

Venerable White Brow waved his sleeves wildly.

"Step back! Daoist Tianming, the next batch!"

Chen Tianming had just tested him once, and he couldn't test them round by round a second time, so this time he chose people randomly.

It was also quite fast; the remaining two hundred and some Great Immortals all revived.

Everyone gathered together to have a small meeting.

Summing up the clues known now, these crystals can only be described as bizarre.

They can't be broken, and they can't be defended against.

For an ancient ruin of this difficulty, the twelve Great Luo Immortals should have acted together to take it down directly.

Seeing everyone backing out, Venerable White Brow quickly tried to boost their morale.

"Everyone, we should have reached the deep underground by now. We are just one step away, just one step away from obtaining the inheritance of the immortals!"

At this moment, he no longer mentioned the matter of the man-made ruins.

Chen Tianming originally didn't want to help him speak, but the finale of the immortals he had designed had also reached the time when it must be unveiled.

If it weren't for these Great Immortals being more cowardly than the last, he could have tormented these hypocrites for a while longer.

However, having played until now, Chen Tianming felt he had gotten his money's worth.

He sneered and reached out with a grab.

In an instant, the earth shook and mountains swayed, and the soil and rocks cracked.

The pitch-black ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly split open, revealing a huge chasm, and white light erupted from within the chasm.

It looked gentle, but in reality, for the Great Immortals, this kind of white light was extremely dangerous!

Beneath the white light, several huge crystals slowly rose.

For a moment, the immortals were shocked, and a terrifying pressure erupted simultaneously from the nine crystals.

Even a Great Luo Immortal like White Brow couldn't help but feel his legs go weak!
