Chapter 589: Hidemoto Clan’s God!
“The god behind the Hidemoto clan, the illusion you created isn’t too shabby at all!”
As soon as Ye Chen said that, the space before him rippled several times, and then the scene shook violently. The scene before him turned into the underground palace of the Hidemoto clan’s shrine.
At that moment, he was still standing on the hanging bridge. An old man in a green Daoist robe with a horsetail whisk in his hand stood across him. The old man had a pointed mouth and monkey’s cheeks. His cheekbones protruded, and he did not look like a normal person.
However, he looked terrible. There was a hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at Ye Chen, “You’re the first one to walk out of my illusion!”
“I must say that your illusion ability is very powerful. It’s so powerful that I almost believe it’s real!” Ye Chen smiled lightly.
There were only two shackles in his heart. The first was the betrayal in the Immortal World, and the second was his parents, wife, and daughter.
When these two shackles were linked together, it would be his inner demon.
It was because ever since he had returned to earth, even though he had been forcing himself not to think about the Immortal World, he had been worried deep down.
He was worried that the Immortal World would know that he was still alive. He was worried that the traitor would send people down to kill him and his family.
As the saying went, concern led to confusion. This was why he had fallen so easily into the illusion earlier.
He shook his head slightly and said, “However, what is fake is fake, what is fake can’t be real. Do you know why I could tell that it was fake?”
The old man remained silent, his eyes flickered continuously.
Although he was the one who created the illusion, he did not know the content of the illusion that Ye Chen experienced. It was all to trigger Ye Chen’s inner demon. Naturally, it allowed things to develop in the direction that he was most afraid of.
He had stayed there for more than a hundred years, and during that time, he had run into many people who had broken into the shrine’s underground palace, but none of them had awakened from the illusion.
Ye Chen was the only exception!
Ye Chen said with a disdainful smile, “That’s because you don’t understand people. To be more precise, you don’t understand human nature. The person in your illusion is too pure. Not only that, the purpose is too strong!”
An illusion!
It was fake!
Everything inside was not aggressive at all. The greatest effect of the illusion was to attack the victim’s mind through fake images, causing them to fall into madness or self-destruct.
In the previous environment, Ye Chen’s parents asked him to save them as soon as they spoke. Although it was logical, it was inhumane.
Ye Chen believed that if his parents really fell into the hands of the enemy, they would rather die than have anything happen to him.
Since that was the case, let alone Su Yuhan, who was his wife.
The biggest flaw came from the Patriarch of Hell in the illusion!
Ye Chen could not be more familiar with the Patriarch of Hell. He was cunning and cowardly. If he was really captured, he would definitely ask Ye Chen to save him. How could he say something so righteous that he would risk his life?
“I have to say, you’re very smart!”
After hearing what Ye Chen said, the frown on the elderly in the daoist robe slowly relaxed. He could not help but sneer, “However, the illusion is just a small trick of mine. I’ve yet to show my real ability…”
However, Ye Chen interrupted him before he could finish, “After saying so much, I was wondering if you would take off your skin…”
The old man’s fearless expression froze hearing what he said, and a hint of panic flashed across his face, “I don’t understand what you’re saying!”
“Since you’re not willing to take it off, let me help you!” Ye Chen scoffed and took a step forward. He curled his fingers and grabbed at him.
The old man’s expression changed. He actually chose to flee without fighting. His body turned into a black gleam and rushed towards the depths of the underground palace.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
How could he be faster than Ye Chen, who was using all his strength to move? Ye Chen slapped his back in just a few breaths of time.
Subsequently, he was sent flying like a kite with a broken string. Finally, he crashed heavily into the stone wall, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The old man slowly stood up from the ground, and the aura around him suddenly changed. It turned cold, cruel, and bloodthirsty, “Since you insist on seeing my real body, I’ll show you as much as you want. It was you who forced me to do this!”
He reached for his face at the next moment!
He pulled down his face!
Sha!
With a sound like a zipper, a piece of human skin fell to the ground along with the clothes.
A long-haired thing stood before Ye Chen.
It was a monkey, a monkey that could stand on two feet. It was about the size of a four or five-year-old child. It was dark green in color, and its eyes were sunken in, revealing only its eye socket.
The scariest thing was that its nose was huge, and it covered almost half of its face.
If one took a closer look, they would notice that it had three nostrils. The third nostril was located below two nostrils of a normal person. They were as thick as a thumb, and they were currently spewing black gas.
In front of his chest was a picture of a black devil. It was a devil with two horns on its head, two wings on its back, and a vertical eye on its forehead. It gave off an extremely terrifying feeling.
“A monkey?”
Ye Chen could not help but frown when he saw that, “The Red Jiri Horse Monkey of the Four Chaos Monkeys? ”
The god that had always been worshipped by the Hidemoto clan was actually a monkey!
“No!”
He then shook his head and said, “It’s not the Red Jiri Horse Monkey.”
He discovered that with his experience, he was actually unable to recognize this thing for a moment. He seemed like a monkey yet it was not a monkey, like a mirage beast yet it was not a mirage beast.
The thing in front of him did not belong to any of two primate families, nor was it the Red Jiri Horse Monkey, Long-armed Ape, Six-Eared Monkey, or the Bright Stone Monkey.
Bright Stone Monkey: Able to change, well-versed in weather, terrain, and in changing the stars.
Red Jiri Horse Monkey: Able to understand yin and yang, good with people, good at going in and out, avoiding death and prolong life.
Long-armed Ape: Able to use the sun and the moon, shrinking thousands of mountains, distinguish between faults, and fiddle with the universe.
Six-eared Macaque: Good at listening, good at understanding reasons, knowing everything from the front and back, and clear in all things.
Thinking to this point, he could not help but look at this guy with interest, “What exactly are you?”
“I’m not a thing…”
The other party said by instinct. He suddenly bared his teeth at Ye Chen and growled, “Brat, I know you’re very powerful. I don’t want to be your enemy. Get lost if you’re smart!”
“I’m not a person that you can invite and send away as you please. Furthermore, you made me fall into an illusion earlier, so this grudge has been formed!”
Ye Chen scoffed. He did not care at all.
Squeak, squeak, squeak!
The monkey bared its fangs at Ye Chen. Two sharp fangs emerged from the corner of its mouth. Its eyes were red.
“You forced me to do this!”
With an extremely violent growl, the nose on its face expanded, as well as its three nostrils. Three rays of green light shot out.
An extremely powerful suction force came subsequently. It was aimed at Ye Chen. Ye Chen felt like his soul was about to be sucked out.
His expression changed slightly, as if he had remembered something.
“A-Are you…”
