Chapter 262: Chapter 231: Hong Yi’s New Lieutenant, The Sudden Monster Tide (Two in One)_3

Afterwards, the accumulation of fear from several rounds of Illusion Experiences could directly shatter, break enemy’s mind, causing their mental and conscious deaths.

Due to the rules of the Chaos Forest, he was unable to cause the target’s actual demise. However, if Tianyuan was subjected to dozens of Illusions, even if he survived, he would awaken in fear day and night.

“Hehehehehe    ”

The low, sonorous laughter of the Lord of Fear echoed among the trees.

Without rush, he continued on his path, gradually nearing the area where the light patterns spread.

Soon, he had found his target.

Some tens of meters away, a figure stood motionless, holding a token.

“Bait?”

“Hmph, only the weak need to resort to setting traps. The strong can simply plow through.”

Standing with his hands behind his back, the Lord of Fear gestured to his minions beside him, “You, go and grab that token. Hmm? Didn’t you hear me?” He was slightly irritated.

But within half a second, he was shocked to discover that his two lackeys had… Disappeared!

“Hehehehehehahaha   ”

The Lord of Fear let out a deep laugh, “Interesting, interesting.”

He looked around and quickly noticed that the root tendrils around him were a bit off. They didn’t just contain life essence, they held spiritual imprints as well. But in front of the Lord of Fear, all concealment was meaningless.

“Fear Ripple.”

Intangible spiritual ripples spread outward, and fear was about to descend upon the hidden figure.

The next moment,

Slap, slap, slap

Root tendrils fell one after another, but those farther away were still writhing.

—Tree Demon Granny was able to withstand the Fear Ripple with parts of her body and then she discarded the affected parts. This way she could break free from the Illusion’s interference using a method that was similar to employing a ‘substitute’.

Such bodies for it were as casually regenerated as a pile of leaves.

The Lord of Fear’s expression had turned grave, but when he sensed the cascade of Illusion Power in front of him, the corners of his mouth gradually curled into a grin, his entire body slightly leaning back.

He was just short of bursting into laughter.

Playing with illusions in front of him was the funniest thing he had seen this year.

He did not resist. The Illusion Power descended upon him.

The next moment, the world transformed.

An endless black land stretched out before him, and countless neatly arranged graves could be seen. Further away, a blood-red pavilion stood tall. At the junction between the night sky and the earth, a giant bloody moon slowly rose, its size half that of the sky.

And the Lord of Fear, clad in black armor, was nailed to a large cross.

“This Illusion is interesting, but…”

Behind the mask of the Lord of Fear, his eyes glowed with circles of faint light.

Two seconds later, the world changed again.

The scene was the same, but the figure nailed to the cross turned into Hong Yi.

“My illusions are far superior to yours.”

The Lord of Fear spread his arms wide.

The power of a multitude of Illusions combined could crush even an enemy of the same caliber, or even one superior to him, under the weight of endless fear.

And Hong Yi had to admit that her mastery of Illusion was somewhat inferior to this formidable opponent.

After all, the Lord of Fear possessed an Epic Ability specialized in Illusion Techniques.

After all, after the version update, Hong Yi hadn’t been as dedicated to refining her Illusory World.

She nodded and said, “Indeed, my mastery of illusions is not strong enough.

But what if I bring out the real Illusory World? How will you handle that?”

Hong Yi was quite excited.

She snapped her fingers and, the next moment, the world transformed for the third time.

The bloody moon and black earth were all gone, but the red pavilion still stood tall.

Outside the red pavilion, was a busy market. Even though it was shrouded in dense, black fog, countless merchants were hawking their wares.

“Come take a look, hey!”

“Fresh brains, hearts, and livers on sale, 20 percent off!”

“Hissss- Hissss- Want a thigh bone? We saw it here, as much as you buy!”

The Lord of Fear found himself in this haunting yet bustling Ghost Market.

A nearby vendor asked him, “Would you like to get a good heart? It’s cheap. All it costs is a heart.”

The Lord of Fear was unperturbed.

No matter in what form they presented themselves, illusions were always just illusions. They held no meaning in front of his eyes.

He snapped his fingers.

Snap

The crisp sound echoed but was quickly drowned out by the festive cries of the Ghost Market.

The Lord of Fear was silent for two seconds before he snapped his fingers again.

Snap

A cold wind whistled, chilling the heart of the Lord of Fear.

After a few more silent seconds, veins popped on the Lord of Fear’s ashen palm as he quickly snapped his fingers over and over.

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!

It was as if the snaps were a series of cold slaps striking his face.

But he could never break open the Underworld Ghost Market solely with Illusion Power because here, things were both an illusion and reality. Unless his Illusion Power was strong enough to interfere with reality, his efforts would be in vain.

And his consciousness, his soul, through two rounds of Illusion transformations, had thoroughly entered the Underworld Ghost Market.

In reality, all that remained was a shell.

Buried deep within the root-infested forest.

Tens of minutes later, Hong Yi wiped the sweat from her forehead, “So tiring, so tiring… I’m so tired.”

If her goal was simply to defeat or eliminate (disqualify) the Lord of Fear, she would not have had to work so hard. However, if she wanted to essentially capture him and transform him into a Ghost General of the Ghost Market, it would not be so easy.

But it was definitely worth it.

Even if he was transformed and only a Remnant Soul was left, and his power could not compare to his peak, this Ghost General could still easily suppress a third-order and even an early four-order power.
