Chapter 1396 Trapped in an Illusion
The Yin energy in the Black Stone Path is as thick as water. After entering the Black Stone Path, both our perception and cultivation will be suppressed. In this situation, the possibility of us being caught in a mechanism is very high.
But, are there really mechanisms in the Black Stone Path?
According to Ye Yang, the black stones on both sides are the Trapping Dragon Gates (kun long zha), so mechanisms shouldn't have been built.
Could it be that the examination hall we are in now is a ghostly illusion?
We are still standing on either side of the Black Stone Path's wall and have never moved.
According to the ancient examination hall setup, there should be other examinees near me.
I haven't moved, but have the others?
When I wanted to reach for the water bottle, I found that all my equipment had disappeared.
While I was pondering, I suddenly heard someone knocking on the wall next door: "Brother... Brother... can you hear me?"
"What answer did you write? Tell me!"
"Let's discuss it. If we both write the correct answers, we can both get out."
I said in a deep voice: "I'm still thinking. Wait a moment..."
As soon as I finished speaking, the other party flared up: "Bullshit!"
"You're afraid that if you give me the answer, I'll be able to get out, but you won't?"
"This isn't the college entrance exam. What competition is there between us? You're keeping even one answer to yourself? How can there be people like you in the martial world?"
I laughed: "Alright! If you have the ability, tell me your answer first!"
"Why aren't you talking?"
The man said angrily: "Are you deliberately trying to pick a fight?"
"Yes!" I laughed, "If you have the ability, come over here!"
The man sneered: "You want to use me to test the consequences of leaving the examination hall without answering the question, right?"
"I'm telling you, if you don't tell me the answer, I won't let you answer the question either."
"I know you can call the proctor."
"If you call him, everyone will hear your movements. How will you survive in this circle in the future?"
"I'm asking you for the answer, that's because I'm in the right. If you look for the proctor, then you're in the wrong."
"You'll have to endure even if it bothers you. This is the rule of the martial world, do you understand?"
The rule of the martial world is to avoid involving officials.
No matter how troublesome things are, you have to solve them yourself.
Winning is a skill, admitting defeat if you can't win, and no one will laugh at you.
However, if you see an official, you will be ostracized.
In the eyes of martial world people, you are no longer worthy of walking the martial world.
I sneered and raised my voice: "Proctor, someone is disrupting the order of the examination hall here."
The person next to me exclaimed: "What are you doing? You actually dare..."
In the next moment, I heard the sound of chains dragging on the ground coming rapidly from a distance, dragging the person from the examination room next to me out amidst screams.
After a while, I saw a corpse hanging on the flagpole of the examination hall.
He should be the examinee next to me!
I looked at the corpse and gently tapped the table with my fingers.
Was the person harassing me beside me a magician from our team, or some kind of illusion?
If it was a magician, it was possible for him to do this. People will always expose the baseness of their nature when they are not held accountable.
However, I don't believe that the magician next to me couldn't recognize who I was?
He should know, after being with me all the way here, that I never play by the rules.
He repeatedly angered me, definitely not to seek death.
That is to say, the owner of the examination hall is trying to make me fall into a certain line of thinking!
Is he trying to make me feel that this is an illusion?
I understand!
The ghost or god who dragged us in is actually letting me choose to believe my own judgment.
Ye Yang said that the Trapping Dragon Gates (kun long zha) should be two solid black stone walls.
If that's the case, then we must be in an illusion.
Daoist Shi Fei also said that there would be forks in the road here. If that's the case, it's possible that we were caught in a mechanism and fell into the wall.
The ghost or god deliberately makes people realize that this is an illusion, making it easier for people to fall into an unjudgeable predicament.
It's like someone putting two glasses of wine in front of you, one of which is poisonous.
After you have made the judgment that one of the glasses of wine is not poisonous, your opponent, standing in a position of absolute advantage, also tells you that you have chosen correctly and can pick it up and drink it.
You will doubt whether you have chosen the wrong one?
Choosing between two options is often the most difficult choice!
While I was hesitating, a voice suddenly came from the examination hall: "Hand in your papers after the third bell. Those who do not hand in their papers will die!"
As soon as I picked up my pen, I heard a bell ringing in the examination hall.
The bell sound is the key to disrupting everyone's judgment.
The more urgent the time, the harder it is for people in the examination hall to make judgments.
People with slightly weaker psychological qualities may not even be able to hold their pens steadily at this time. Even if they manage to write something, they don't know what they are writing?
While I was shocked, the second bell rang from across the air. The ghosts and gods are forcing us to make a final decision!
Under these circumstances, no one dares to gamble on when the next bell will ring.
I picked up my pen and wrote four words on the paper: "Body in illusion." (Shen zai huan jing)
After I finished writing, the examination paper in front of me suddenly burst into flames. As the foot-high flames rushed towards my eyes,
The scene in front of me also changed!
