CHAPTER 208: CHAPTER 14: THREE HEADS AND SIX ARMS

Lin Jing did not say much, nor did he wait for Senior Sister Ning’s instructions.

A small white-haired, red-footed monkey in the early-stage Foundation Establishment appeared beside him in an instant.

This action also made the other disciples of the second team open their eyes!

In the illusion comprehension process of the second team at Thousand Illusions Mountain, many disciples had tried to transform into the Vermilion Bird, but all they managed was a mere shape. It lacked spirit, did not look real, and was useless for combat.

However, the one Lin Jing manifested was utterly different.

In its sapphire eyes, it seemed to contain unparalleled battle intent.

On its body, the boiling battle intent mixed with ferocity, exuding a wild yet profound terrifying aura...

The indescribable aura of a prehistoric beast instantly made the cultivators of the three sects in the battle feel a dreadful intuition of being watched by a beast. They all turned to look at Lin Jing’s illusion of the Little Vermilion Bird. Upon seeing it, their pupils shrunk as if losing their spirit.

"Why is there another one!!!"

"Wait a minute, something’s not right with this one!!"

The Little Vermilion Bird within the inheritance relic restrained its might, so even though it killed numerous people and beasts, and displayed immense power, the cultivators of the three sects were frightened but not to the extreme of fear and dread.

After all, those who could make it here were all sect elites with firm wills.

However, as this Little Vermilion Bird, imbued with the might of a beast, appeared, a sensation that none had experienced before surged straight into their minds!

The deaths of fellow disciples and pet beasts seemed to re-emerge before their eyes.

The threat of death after repeatedly brushing against the grim reaper had never been as palpable as at this moment.

The previous battles seemed to replay endlessly in their minds, showing scene after scene of their impending brutal deaths.

"No, don’t..." In an instant of eye contact with the Little Vermilion Bird, they seemed to see themselves being torn apart by the Vermilion Bird in the future, as their spirits nearly crumbled.

The last line of mental defense was instantly breached by this formidable presence!

As the illusion of the Little Vermilion Bird walked step by step towards the center of the battlefield, within seconds, over a hundred cultivators from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and the Flower Sect, startled out of their wits, immediately abandoned the relic and opted to withdraw.

Meanwhile, the disciples of Thousand Illusions Mountain, who were not targeted by Lin Jing, witnessed a stunning scene...

Just by taking a few steps and displaying its might, the Little Vermilion Bird induced countless Foundation Establishment cultivators to scream madly, as if confronted by some horrifying existence. Some turned and ran, some froze in place, and others collapsed, their bowels emptying in fear.

Even though the Vermilion Bird’s might didn’t target the Thousand Illusions Mountain disciples, they also felt a shiver down their spines.

"Unfortunately, it’s still just an illusion, capable only of mentally crippling enemies..."

Moreover, this time, it was because the Little Vermilion Bird left such a deep impression during the three challenges that the Vermilion Bird’s might exhibited miraculous effects...

"Void Reversal Technique... When will I learn it? If a mere illusion possesses such power, turning void into reality... surely it won’t be any less potent." Lin Jing followed behind the Little Vermilion Bird, watching the disciples of the two sects collapse in fear, not surprised. Meanwhile, the three-headed, six-armed Vermilion Bird, which was still engaged in slaughter, turned its gaze towards Lin Jing.

"Roar!!!" The Little Vermilion Bird, already heavily injured by the disciples of the three sects, charged towards Lin Jing.

Just then, the might of Lin Jing’s illusion of the Little Vermilion Bird surged, reaching Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, with battle intent flaring even more, covered in a layer of radiant blue spiritual wave, and punched towards the opponent.

Lin Jing stood in place, watching calmly.

"It’s an illusion... This guy, transformed into the Vermilion Bird..."

Everything happening before them left the disciples of Thousand Illusions Mountain in shock.

"The highest level use of Intimidation Magic, injecting a lot of one’s spiritual power into an illusion, not for attack, but to help it transform into a spiritual body. Though not as complete as the Void Reversal Technique’s materialization, its might is not to be underestimated. Who is this person, who managed to transform into a Vermilion Bird with spirit, and use Intimidation Magic to such a degree..."

Many disciples of Thousand Illusions Mountain didn’t know Lin Jing.

Of course, some were aware of this newcomer who had been in Thousand Illusions Mountain for less than two years.

Regardless, Lin Jing was now known among the elite disciples of Thousand Illusions Mountain.

At this moment, the outside world was already in upheaval.

One disciple after another from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and the Flower Sect fled the relic, their spirits somewhat abnormal upon exiting the relic, tense, sensitive, fearful, desolate...

Outside the relic, the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect saw their disciples fleeing as if soulless, and exiting in such a large scale, immediately realizing something was wrong.

"What happened!" the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect asked a disciple, but the disciple couldn’t comprehend human words, repelling the Flower Sect Leader’s inquiry in terror, continuously falling to the ground and crawling backward.

"Don’t come near, don’t come near... I quit, I..."

Seeing this, the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect frowned, and with a gentle blow, a green glow enveloped the spiritually deranged disciples, calming their expressions.

"Lv Lian, what happened inside the relic!" she continued to question.

"I..." A Flower Sect True Disciple with Great Perfection Foundation Establishment cultivation was stunned, her mind blank, but as memories emerged, her expression changed, and she immediately rose to report to the Sect Leader:

"The third trial, we were conquering the third trial when suddenly another Vermilion Bird appeared. That Vermilion Bird was more real than the one guarding the relic, like an ancient Vermilion Bird resurrected, and we were all terrified by its aura..."

"Then... no, that’s not right, Sect Leader, reporting to the Sect Leader!"

"It wasn’t a second Vermilion Bird; it was an illusion created by a disciple of Thousand Illusions Mountain. They successfully created an illusion of a Vermilion Bird with spiritual might, and that illusion, just through aura, nearly drove us to spiritual insanity!" This True Disciple finally understood what happened, her voice filled with disbelief, still visibly shaken, yet also slightly surprised.

That Vermilion Bird, it was an illusion!

Her recounting also left the Vice Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Beasts Sect in disbelief, incomprehensible.

What?

Did a disciple from Thousand Illusions Mountain really create a Vermilion Bird with spiritual might?

How could that be!

Not only did the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect and the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect not believe it, but even Huan Gongming, the Sect Leader of Thousand Illusions Mountain, was momentarily stunned. When the disciples from the two sects had fled in terror, he already suspected something was amiss. Now, upon hearing the Flower Sect disciple’s recounting, he completely doubted his own ears.

But moments later, Huan Gongming burst into laughter.

"Who, exactly which disciple! If they have no teacher, I’m willing to take them as my disciple!"

Other elders of Thousand Illusions Mountain also wore excited expressions, some incredulous.

"Who is it."

"Is it Ning Yao?"

No matter who it is, upon hearing this news, none of the Nascent Soul Elders of Thousand Illusions Mountain were unexcited.

It’s the Vermilion Bird!

Replicating even a trace of its spirit is truly terrifying, as evidenced by the defeated disciples of the two sects before us!

Simultaneously.

After easily breaking the mental defenses of over a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators using the Vermilion Bird illusion endowed with spirit, Lin Jing proceeded with his real task, granting the Vermilion Bird illusion a spiritual entity, endowing it with a degree of combat capability.

As a cultivator with thirteen levels of Qi Cultivation at Foundation Establishment, Lin Jing’s spiritual power was also terrifyingly overwhelming. Empowered by his spiritual power, the third trial’s Vermilion Bird, already heavily injured by over a hundred cultivators and countless pet beasts using various arrays, was undoubtedly taken down by Lin Jing.

Disciples from Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and Flower Sect had all fled, the disciples of Thousand Illusions Mountain were all stunned, and no one contested him for this final strike.

Sizzle.

The three-headed, six-armed Little Vermilion Bird dissipated, and as Lin Jing received a thin drop of Blood of Zhu Yan, a magic technique’s cultivation method emerged in his mind...

Three-head Six-arms! A magic technique that both humans and beasts can cultivate!
