Chapter 148 Falling into an illusion
Chapter 148 Falling into an illusion
Looking in Liu You's direction, Pei Cangli discovered that she was still walking westward and soon left the city, but she seemed to be still speeding up.
Pei Cangli had no choice but to speed up and follow quietly, but suddenly found that she could not sense Liu You's location.
The puppet was discovered by Liu You? Impossible. With Liu You's ability, if he could have discovered it, he would have discovered it long ago and would not have waited until now.
That meant the person behind the scenes had discovered it, and then Pei Cangli discovered that the scenery around him had changed and was no longer desolate.
She was discovered and pulled into an illusion set up by the other party. She watched the illusion keep changing, and finally it stopped at a scene that Pei Cangli had not seen for a long time.
The people behind the scenes were very confused when they saw this scene. They didn't understand why Pei Cangli was most afraid of this. It didn't seem to be dangerous.
Seeing the scene around her, Pei Cangli's face paused at the New Year's Eve when she was sixteen years old, and a sneer appeared on her face.
It turns out this is what she fears the most, and she herself doesn't even know it.
When he was sixteen, Pei Cangli felt suffocated by his parents' preference for boys over girls and his younger brother's increasingly extreme behavior.
After a lot of effort, she was admitted to high school. During self-study that day, a boy in the front row passed her a note saying that he liked her.
Pei Cangli didn't believe it at all, but from then on, this boy asked her about her well-being every day and took care of her emotions in every possible way.
Pei Cangli felt the long-lost care, and just when she was slowly getting used to this kind of company, she planned to be with that boy.
She asked for leave from physical education class and heard the boy outside the window talking to a girl, saying that it was too boring for him to do that and he wanted to tease Pei Cangli to see if she would be interested.
He even said that he had made a bet with the boys in their dormitory about when Pei Cangli would agree to be his girlfriend.
The loser has to give the winner the chance to buy the latest game skin. The offer is valid for one week and today is the last day.
Seeing this, Pei Cangli in the illusion really wanted to rush in and hug her former self. After hearing this, she hurriedly asked for leave from the teacher.
She didn't dare to face such a situation, nor was she afraid to face such a scene alone, so she went to the riverside and sat there silently for a long time.
I thought the illusion had ended here. Pei Cangli smiled disdainfully. An illusion of this level was not difficult at all.
But the scene suddenly changed and went directly to the boys' dormitory. Pei Cangli heard the boys who had bet on her were discussing her.
One of them said, "Isn't it possible that Pei Cangli knew about our bet and asked for leave to run away?"
"So what if you know? Don't you know that she is not valued at home? A little bit of false comfort from me will make her feel honored."
"You said Pei Cangli, her family doesn't care about her, so does she deserve our care?"
"You didn't see it. I just gave her a little toy, but she wore it on her hand all day long as if it were a treasure."
"You mentioned this, and I saw it too. Do you think she is so hungry because she lacks love?"
After saying this, the boys in the dormitory all burst into laughter, as if they were not talking about a person, but an object.
Pei Cangli wanted to defend herself. She just thought it was a little thought from others and wanted to take it seriously.
Then the scene changed again, this time it became the scene when Si Yunzhou gave her the ring, but she was not in the picture.
She saw Si Yunzhou sneer at Ji Feng and said, "Pei Cangli is a casual cultivator, so pitiful. If I give her this ring, she will definitely be grateful to me."
Ji Feng nodded in agreement and said, "Which female cultivator in the Cangyun Realm would not be attracted to Senior Brother? Pei Cangli really got a great bargain."
"She just wants to gain a good reputation and not have any inner demons. Otherwise, how can she, a casual cultivator, be worthy of it?"
Then Xuan Shang's face appeared on the screen again. He sneered at Ming Xue and said, "A Jindan-stage cultivator really thought that a cultivator like me, a Huashen-stage cultivator, would have feelings for her. You are simply overestimating yourself."
"My Lord, that's right. It's just a pity that you gave her the water-repellent bead. That one bead."
"It's just a useless thing. She doesn't deserve good things."
Then they arrived at the demon tribe. Qingming was asking the people below if they had found her. The people below said, "Master, he is just a cultivator of the human race. Why do you care so much?"
"What do you know? Pei Cangli is very popular now. I just want to gain everyone's recognition. As for Pei Cangli, it doesn't matter whether he is dead or alive."
The scene was about to change, but it suddenly ended. Pei Cangli sat on the ground in despair, muttering to himself, "Liar, all liars!"
"Cang Li, are you okay?"
Suddenly she heard Si Yunzhou's voice and saw him trying to help her, but Pei Cangli pushed him away and yelled at him, "Let me go!"
Then, seeing Xuan Shang and Qing Ming behind Si Yunzhou, Pei Cangli quickly took off the water-repellent beads on his ring and wrist and threw them at Si Yunzhou and Xuan Shang, shouting at the three of them heartbrokenly, "Liar, all three of you are liars!"
After saying that, he stood up and teleported to another place, and then after several more teleports, Pei Cangli arrived directly at the bottom of Tianxin Sea, took out the Water Spirit Pearl, and sat quietly at the bottom of the sea for a long time.
After thinking for a long time, Pei Cangli knew that he was affected by the illusion, but could what happened in the illusion be fake?
What if it is true as what is said in the illusion, Pei Cangli is just too lacking in love, so he rushes to accept the little warmth given by others?
She finally understood why she didn't like boys aged fifteen or sixteen. It turned out that in her subconscious, they were all people who had hurt her.
In order to prevent Cangcang and the others from worrying, Pei Cangli sent them a message, telling them not to worry about her, she just wanted to be alone.
After Si Yunzhou and the others received the information, they did not go back. Instead, the three of them began to look for her everywhere. After all, all three of them saw Pei Cangli's situation at that time.
When Pei Cangli left the city, the three of them noticed it, and then each of them followed behind him in their own way. In order to avoid being discovered, the three of them stayed very far away.
It was not until they saw Pei Cangli trapped in an illusion that the three of them quickly appeared. After a period of combined efforts, they finally broke the illusion, revealing that it was set up by a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing stage.
Then Pei Cangli threw the thing in his hand to them, saying that the three of them were liars, and then disappeared.
seabed.
It's been so many years, but she didn't expect these memories to still affect her? Pei Cangli originally thought that it was a thing of her past life, but she didn't expect that when it was dug up, the wound was still bleeding.
Thinking about how he had failed this time, Pei Cangli began to search in the system, trying to find something similar that would allow him to get through this level.
She used her points to exchange for a universal mirror, which just suited her situation. Pei Cangli used a formation to isolate an area on the bottom of the sea and then entered the mirror alone.
Only a quarter of an hour after entering, he was thrown out by the mirror. It was the same scene as last time. Pei Cangli could not get past this hurdle.
He went in again and persisted for half an hour, but Pei Cangli was thrown out again.
This time Pei Cangli did not continue to go in, but thought about how he could pass this level. At this time, the voice of the Heavenly Dao sounded, "Practice the ruthless way, and you will naturally pass the level."
There was no sound after that. Pei Cangli wanted to ask again, but unfortunately no one answered. He sat there in vain for another day and night.
Pei Cangli looked at the Universal Mirror hanging in the air and began to think about the words of the Heavenly Dao. Is it really possible to practice the Way of Ruthlessness?
