Chapter 704

"Trapped? Really? Isn't that the exit?" Wu Liu turned her head and looked at the exit. She didn't care.

"That's not the exit," Zi Chen shook his head and said seriously.

"Milord, don't scare me. This place is only a thousand miles wide. Everything inside can be seen clearly with one's spiritual senses. Moreover, we've searched around. This is clearly the exit we came from. As long as I take a step forward, I can walk out."

Wu Liu was about to verify what she said.

"Don't go."

Zi Chen stopped her, but it was too late. Wu Liu took two steps forward and stepped into the original exit. Her figure flashed and disappeared.

It looked like Wu Liu had gone out, but Zi Chen knew that she must still be here and hadn't gone out.

Ling 'er was very nervous. She held Zi Chen's hand tightly. Sun Jian also leaned toward Zi Chen.

"Take Ling 'er and follow me," Zi Chen said, motioning for Sun Jian to take Ling' er.

Then, he led the two of them into the original exit. Light flashed, and when they reappeared, they were already in the outside world.

"We're out, we're out." Ling 'er and Sun Jian's faces were filled with joy, but Zi Chen frowned.

"Sir, you guessed wrong. I've already come out. Look, you're out too. This is an empty small world. There's nothing inside." Wu Liu's voice sounded from the side.

Looking at Wu Liu, Ling 'er and Sun Jian both nodded. This time, Zi Chen had indeed miscalculated.

"Is that so?" But when Zi Chen saw Wu Liu, the corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile.

"Isn't that so? We've already come out. Why don't we go in and take a look?" Wu Liu pointed at the passage ahead that hadn't dissipated.

"No need." Zi Chen shook his head.

"If you don't want to take a look, then forget it. Do we go back or continue to search?" Wu Liu asked again.

The smile on Zi Chen's face became even colder. Then, he pointed at Wu Liu. Golden energy gushed out from Zi Chen's finger and landed on Wu Liu's body. Then, there was an explosion.

Ling 'er was so shocked that she let go of Zi Chen and covered her mouth. Her face was full of disbelief.

This was because Wu Liu had actually been blasted apart by Zi Chen's finger and had died.

"I told you to hold on tight. Don't let go." Ling 'er felt a strong force on her arm. It was Zi Chen who had grabbed her again.

Immediately after, a cry of surprise came from beside Ling 'er. It was Sun Jian. "No, the body exploded, but there is no flesh. He is a fake."

"Hold on tight and don't let go," Zi Chen said again.

One of Ling 'er's hands was held by Zi Chen, while the other was held tightly by Sun Jian.

"What do we do now?" Ling 'er seemed to be afraid of such a strange scene. Even her voice was trembling.

"Sun Jian, what do you think we should do now?" Zi Chen suddenly asked.

A look of fear appeared on Sun Jian's face as he shook his head. "I don't know either. This scene is too strange. Is this an illusion array? I don't even know when I fell for it."

"We fell for it when we returned from searching in the small world," Zi Chen said.

"Ah, then what do we do? Are we still in the small world?" Sun Jian's body trembled. He was frightened.

"We should still be here."

"Then how do we leave?" Sun Jian asked in a trembling voice.

"This should be an illusion array. Unfortunately, the demon ape is not here. Otherwise, his Delusion-breaker Eye would definitely be able to see through it." Zi Chen looked at Sun Jian.

"The Delusion-breaker Eye can see through all illusions. If we had it, we would definitely be able to leave."

Sun Jian looked around and kept looking. "But now that we don't have it, how are we going to break the illusion array? Are we going to walk in again?"

Zi Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. "We only triggered the array when we stepped out of here. Maybe we can return to the starting point if we go in."

"Come, follow me."

Zi Chen led the two into the passage again. The light changed, and the scene from before reappeared. They were inside the small world again.

But it was still empty. There was nothing, and there was no trace of Wu Liu.

"Wu Liu is not here. We should still be in the array," Sun Jian said.

"Maybe." Zi Chen also looked around with a blank look in his eyes.

"Then how are we going to break the array?" Sun Jian looked at Zi Chen.

The two of them exchanged questions and answers. As a child, Ling 'er naturally could not interrupt. Out of an instinctive reaction to fear, Ling' er was closer to Sun Jian.

"I don't know anything about formations. If only Elder Mo was here." After looking around, Zi Chen still couldn't figure out what was going on.

"We triggered the array when we were searching in circles. Maybe the place to break the array is around here. Why don't we search along the way again?" Sun Jian suggested.

"Seems like that's the only way. Alright, let's go again. Maybe we can meet Wu Liu again." Zi Chen nodded.

Then, the three of them walked forward. Just like before, they went back the way they came.

"My Lord, My Lord, is that you?" After exploring more than half of a thousand miles, a panicked voice sounded behind the three of them.

The three of them turned around and saw Wu Liu running towards them. Their faces were instantly filled with vigilance.

But at the same time, Wu Liu was also extremely vigilant. When she was a hundred meters away from the three of them, she stopped.

"My Lord, Lord Zi Chen, is that you?" Wu Liu looked at Zi Chen cautiously. She did not go forward.

"It's me." Zi Chen nodded. Then, he said coldly, "But are you Wu Liu?"

"It's me, it's me. I am Wu Liu of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion. The Vice Pavilion Master sent me here. But are you Lord Zi Chen?" Wu Liu still did not go forward.

"You don't believe me." Zi Chen stared at Wu Liu.

"Wu Liu, it's us. The three of us have always been together. But after you left, we saw another you. It was fake. It was an illusion. Zi Chen discovered it," Sun Jian said. "It's really you.

"It's really you guys. I encountered the same situation just now. You guys followed me out of the passage and I saw the outside world. I was very happy, so I went forward. But who would have thought that Lord Zi Chen would try to kill me? Fortunately, I reacted quickly and dodged. Moreover, that energy wasn't strong. After that, I realized that the three of you were fake as well." Wu Liu's vigilance disappeared as she walked over.

"It's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding. We fell into an illusion formation. What happened is almost the same as what you said," Sun Jian said. Ling 'er also nodded.

"This place is too strange. It's eerie. I keep feeling that someone is secretly watching me. Lord Zi Chen, is there any way to break the formation?" Wu Liu completely relaxed her vigilance.

Zi Chen looked at Wu Liu, who was walking over, and suddenly said, "Wu Liu, weren't your clothes destroyed by the explosion of the passage? How come they're fine now?"

Wu Liu was stunned. She looked down at her robe and said, "They're fine now? No, I just changed into another set."

"Oh, yes, you changed into another set." Zi Chen nodded. There was a faint smile on his face, and he relaxed.

"Yes, you changed into another set. Ling 'er and I remember it," Sun Jian said. Ling' er also nodded.

The four of them reunited again. It was obviously a good sign.

But in the next moment, Zi Chen suddenly attacked. He pointed a finger at Wu Liu's brow.

"Lord Zi Chen, you …" Wu Liu was stunned. Her expression changed drastically. Facing Zi Chen's attack, she could not react at all.

"Hmph."

Wu Liu's answer was a cold snort from Zi Chen. After the golden finger fell, Wu Liu's body exploded again and disappeared like smoke.

It was an illusion again.

"It's still an illusion. How is this possible?"

Sun Jian's eyes widened in disbelief. "He's not Wu Liu, but he knows about Wu Liu. This illusion formation is too scary."

"It's indeed hard to figure out. Let's continue searching. Maybe the place to break the formation is nearby," Zi Chen said.

Then, the three of them began to search carefully.

But after searching once, they did not find anything suspicious at all. The three of them returned empty-handed.

Zi Chen was a little depressed. He was trapped here. Sun Jian and Ling 'er were also helpless. They did not know what to do.

"Staying here is not a solution. Why don't we search over and over again? As long as it's a formation, there will always be a flaw. As long as we are careful enough and do not miss any suspicious place, we will definitely be able to break it," Sun Jian said.

"That makes sense. We must not be discouraged." Zi Chen stood up. The three of them searched again.

Within a thousand miles, the three of them began to search carefully over and over again. They did not miss any place at all. They searched more than ten times, but there was nothing unusual at all.

The three of them came to the entrance again. Ling 'er and Sun Jian were already panting. Obviously, they were very tired.

"There's nothing suspicious. How can this be? It shouldn't be. Are we going to be trapped here forever?" Sun Jian was extremely unwilling.

Suddenly, Sun Jian glanced in the direction of the exit. There was a pattern similar to a cauldron. "Look, what is that?"

Following the direction of Sun Jian's finger, Zi Chen and Ling 'er also saw the pattern. The three of them quickly went forward.

It was a cauldron pattern, and it looked like a pill cauldron. It was engraved near the exit. As Zi Chen touched it, he could clearly feel the carvings in it.

"Almost everything here is dead. Only this one feels real. Could it be that the exit to break the formation is here?" Sun Jian asked.

Zi Chen thought for a moment, then said, "We'll know if the exit is or not when we try."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zi Chen hit the pattern.

The pill cauldron was directly shattered. Energy swept out, and the three of them suddenly opened up.

The illusion formation was broken. The three of them had reached the real exit. As long as they took a step, they would be able to leave this place.

"Sir." Wu Liu's voice sounded again.

Sun Jian and Ling 'er looked at Wu Liu cautiously. The two times they came out were fake. It seemed that this time was very likely to be fake as well.

"The formation is broken. He's real," Zi Chen said, his voice calm.

"What real or fake? Where did you go? I came back and forth several times, but I didn't see you." As he spoke, Wu Liu stepped forward.

Sun Jian and Ling 'er touched and pinched Wu Liu. After confirming that he was real, they both laughed.

Wu Liu was a little confused.

"Since everyone is here, shouldn't we leave?" Sun Jian asked.

Zi Chen looked at Sun Jian and smiled faintly. "If you don't have any requests, we do want to leave."

"I, what requests can I have? I don't have any requests. I just want to leave." Sun Jian was stunned.
