"So you're saying that the Nightmare Tactic and the Heavenly Spring have some sort of relationship?"

"That's right, my master also liked music. Back then, it was him who guided Xiahou Yu. It's just that at that time, Jiu You wasn't as weak as he is now. Sikong Xun still hasn't begun to plot the dragon's scale."

She heaved a long sigh. She had to spend twenty years to plan this dragon's scale. She had definitely prepared it for a very long time. Otherwise, she would not have seized the dragon's scale so recklessly.

It was just that she hadn't thought that the Nightmare Mantra would have something to do with the Heaven Spring.

Unknowingly, it was already noon. The zither stand on the ground emitted spirit energy and began to echo into the strings, emitting a buzzing sound.

At first, Chu Shiyu thought it was pleasing to the ear, clear and pleasant to listen to, but slowly his brain was like a thousand insects, swallowing his brain.

"Ah Yu, use your Nightmare Tactic to suppress this vile aura. Otherwise, you will enter into a maze."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Shiyu immediately sat down next to the zither stand and used his hand to knock on the zither string, suppressing the zither music that was burning his brain.

His hand was on the zither string, but he could still hear the echo that did not belong to him. Once again, Chu Shiyu's brain was burned, and his eyes slowly became bloodshot.

Yu Wuyou stood at the side and covered his ears. He was not hurt by the sound of the zither, but his expression was stiff and his expression was ugly to the extreme.

Suddenly, he felt a black cloud descending from the sky, covering the top of his head in light. Master Chu once again strummed the zither, and a few of the seductive Gu's mixed notes, like the howls of wolves, resonated with the echoes.

As more and more veins of blood appeared in her eyes, her pale face began to twist, and all the meridians in her body began to move up and down. It was like a blazing fire swallowing up her memory, her mind flashed with scenes of piles of bones.

The sound of the zither stopped. Her hands rested flat on the zither stand, but she did not have any reaction. She just sat blankly by the music stand.

"Ah Yu ~"

Yu Wuyou sat down beside her and used his hands to wipe the sweat off her forehead.

In the end, she was still unable to suppress that inner demon. She had already entered into an illusionary world.

In fact, the few formations on the mountain were all his state of mind. There was inner demons, illusions, bewildering formations, and the most dangerous one was the Demon Subduing Mood.

This maze was a type of heart demon. The main thing was to incinerate one's own desire and see if one could obtain whatever they wanted.

Perhaps to other people, it was more about power and money, but Chu Shiyu definitely did not care about these things, so it was not easy for him to charge out.

Master Chu opened his eyes. He was standing in a deserted ruin, smoke rising from all directions, the battlefield in disarray, and the sound of fighting filling his ears.

"Damn it, give me another illusion, the seniors of the Heaven Spring Sect also like to play around like this?" If it's not your mental state, then how can you always guess your own heart? "

An ancient voice rang out, "Illusions give birth to mystique, emotions give birth to demons, demons give birth to greed, whatever you want, you have to pay for it, not only for it, but for it as well. If you want to become the master of this world, you have to give it up, you have to give it up!"

"Then what if I don't want to give up anything?"

"Then I can only continue to be trapped in this illusionary world. I can't leave, I can't leave, I can't give up, I can't beg!"

"Master Chu!" What's the use of having all this great righteousness? If I had to give it up, wouldn't I lose enough? I lost my family, my most capable maid, I lost the blissful things that I should have.

The space was peaceful. Smoke filled the entire corpse mountain.

She didn't want to see it anymore. Those who died died eventually died, and many people died. She was already numb to life and death.

Closing his eyes, a strong stench of blood filled the air.

She wasn't even afraid of the inner demons, so how could she be afraid of illusions?

Master Chu picked up a fire stick and walked over the corpses. Other than the mountainous piles of corpses, there was also a river of fresh blood.

Since he was going to die, there was no need for him to be sad.

She lit the torches on the corpses and watched as they were slowly incinerated by the fire until they turned to ashes.

However, she couldn't get out of the haze.

She had once set up this kind of illusion for others. She knew that she was unmoved, unafraid, unaffected, and uncontrollable.

Keep your mind clear, and you won't be harassed by the illusions.

Master Chu sat quietly on the ground, closing his eyes to rest his mind.

After an unknown period of time, the voice rang out once again!

"You are unmoved by all living things, and you sit there like a bell. However, you will always have an illusionary world that you cannot see clearly. Why don't you walk around and find out that this world is different?"

She slowly opened her eyes and said in a cold voice, "There is nothing different in this world. There is only greed and desire in the hearts of people, it is the same even if you don't want to see it. Even if you keep me trapped here, I won't spare a glance at this disgusting heart."

He closed his eyes again, ignoring the voice that had moved her.

When her lips were dry and cracked, she opened her eyes. Her misty eyes flashed with a familiar figure.

Those were the scenes of Master Yan being bathed in blood all those years ago.

Bodies piled up, blood flowing in rivers.

With great difficulty, Master Chu crawled to the side of a corpse that was still bleeding, and used his mouth to catch the blood dripping from the corpse.

This was how she had been brought back to life all those years ago. When she was thirsty, she drank human blood, and when she was hungry, she would bite off a piece of human meat to satisfy her hunger.

In order to survive, he didn't feel disgusted at all. Perhaps this was the greed and desire of life.

It was this greed that allowed her to survive the pile of corpses.

There was nothing wrong with a person being alive. The most important thing was whether or not the result was what he wanted.

A mouthful of blood sucked into his lips, and his pale face immediately turned blood-red.

A few griffins flew out from the fog. They were pecking at the rotten meat on the corpses, tearing them into pieces.

She lay down on her stomach and slowly approached the eagles. When they weren't paying attention, she caught one with her hand.

Egret struggled in her hands, sword in hand, beheading.

If they did not sacrifice water, they did not sacrifice trees, they did not sacrifice mountains, they did not sacrifice birds, they did not sacrifice flowers, and they did not sacrifice blood.

Even if he died, he was still a human. How could he feed on a bird?

A few heron vultures flew over and saw her squirming among the corpses. They surrounded her and looked up, waiting for the life she was about to lose.

However, Chu Shiyu slowly stood up and used his sword to cut open the palm of his hand. Blood dripped onto the ground.

A few vultures immediately pounced over and attacked her wound.

Master Chu closed his eyes and gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

When the Heron Eagles arrived, they swung their swords and cut off the body of the Egret Egret, splitting it in half.

The haze slowly dispersed, and when Chu Shiyu opened his eyes again, he was still sitting motionlessly by the zither stand.

"Have I broken through the illusion?"

Yu Wuyou laughed, "You are over the border and unmoved, unafraid of anything!"
