Chapter 42 [042] Seven Emotions Illusion Array

There were many medicinal herbs in the back mountain of Lingshen. When it was almost noon, disciple Xu came back to his senses from his busy schedule and realized that they were already far away from the front mountain, basically separated by three valleys. It would probably take half an hour to fly back on a sword.

So, he sought Shi Qing's opinion and asked, "Senior Sister Shi Qing, how about we not go back at noon?"

Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to come again in the afternoon.

Shi Qing still said the same thing: "It's up to you. I don't mind."

So disciple Xu could only look at Zhongli Jin again, "Where's my junior brother?"

Zhong Lijin said: "I will listen to you, Senior Brother."

Disciple Xu: “…”

"Okay," he said helplessly, "Then let's stay here and rest for a while. I'll tell Senior Sister Cang."

The back mountain is mostly covered with strange rocks and sparse vegetation, but after crossing three canyons, there is a flat area with green grass.

Perhaps because of the midday sun, the flowers and plants here are growing well, the colors are very lush and green, fresh and lively, and there are butterflies flying around.

The three of them sat down where they were. The grass was soft and smelled soothing, which had the effect of relieving fatigue.

Zhongli Jin was dressed in white. He had just been busy on the muddy mountain road for a long time, but the mud had not stained his clothes at all. They were still as white as snow and dazzling in the sun.

Disciple Xu and Shi Qing have already started fasting, and only Zhongli Jin needs to eat something.

The young man prepared some dry food and took out some white cakes to share with disciple Xu, "Brother, try it. This is the most famous white cake at the foot of Xuanxiao Sect Mountain. It tastes delicious."

Zhongli Jin became famous at a young age, with the arrogance and frivolity of a teenager. Whenever he returned to the sect, he would always like to go to the inn at the foot of the mountain to try some human food. The innkeeper knew him, respected him, and regarded him as an immortal. He often gave him his own cakes for free.

Zhongli Jin fell in love with the taste after eating it once. He was particularly fond of studying it. In addition to holding a sword, his hands also loved making pancakes.

Disciple Xu took the white flour cake, thanked him, and asked with a smile: "Did you make this yourself?"

Zhongli Jin: "...No, someone else gave it to me."

In fact, these were indeed prepared by the boy himself.

But - for a fourteen-year-old boy, making pancakes out of a sword cultivator was something that would lower his status.

This is the boy's little secret, and he doesn't want others to know.

Zhongli Jin looked at Shi Qing across from him again, pursed his lips slightly, and asked, "Would you like some?"

"No need." Shi Qing responded calmly.

Fasting means not eating grains or cereals.

It would not have any effect on the body of a monk to eat human food after fasting, but Shi Qing did not like to eat.

The girl's cold refusal made Zhong Li Jin feel that he was asking unnecessary questions.

He took a bite, lowered his eyes slightly, and no longer looked at Shi Qing.

The road in the front mountain was opened by disciples of the Lingxia Sect, and it is indeed easier to walk on than the back mountain.

But they could hear their piano music everywhere, which made Shen Xiang feel a little irritated.

In front, Cangying was picking herbs seriously and collected a lot in less than an hour. Judging from the current progress, it would take less than ten days in Lingshen Mountain to complete the task and set off for the next stop.

Chen Xiang took out the paper doll she had exchanged last night from her pocket. The doll could change into her appearance and follow Cangying instead of her.

However, this paper man can only last for four hours, and she must return before dusk, otherwise she will be discovered.

After injecting spiritual power, Shen Xiang took advantage of Cangying's inattention, turned around and hid in the bushes nearby.

Hearing the noise, Cangying looked back and saw the little apprentice sister standing behind her blankly. She frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." The silly little sister said, "I'm just tired."

Cangying didn't doubt him. She knew that her junior sister was lazy and greedy, so she said, "You can take a rest, but remember, don't leave my sight."

"it is good."

Cangying: “…”

What happened today?
The sun rises from the west? It's so obedient?
On the other side, Chen Xiang used the tracking talisman to rush towards where Shi Qing and the others were.

She couldn't use the teleportation talisman, because if she said the name of the teleporter, she would expose herself.

Shen Xiang thought about it for a long time last night. She had discovered that the effect of her aura of being a popular figure among the opposite sex had been weakened in this world, and she couldn't even attract disciple Xu.

Perhaps the cultivation level of the immortal cultivator also has a resistance to the halo, and the higher the level, the less affected they are.

Therefore, only those mortals who have no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate immortality would fall madly in love with her.

Shen Xiang gritted her teeth slightly. In order to go home, she would not give up on conquering the hero.

But he didn't want to deal with Shi Qing just because he wanted to go home.

At first, she really thought that Shi Qing was the vicious female supporting role that the system described, and that she admired Qiang, was selfish and cold.

However, during the time they had been together, the girl had saved her more than once. Although she seemed indifferent, when she lost her temper, she would show tolerance with an expressionless face, cover for her, and clean up the mess.

Sometimes Shen Xiang even felt jealous of the original owner.

Why does Shi Xiang have a senior sister like Shi Qing, while all the men and women she meets in her life are so hideous and terrifying?
Shen Xiang was very conflicted.

She didn't like that her daddy favored Shi Qing over herself.

But what she disliked even more was Shi Qing's alienation from her, his coldness to her, and even his neglect of her.

[System, how many meters away are we from Shi... the male protagonist's location?] Chen Xiang now tries to avoid mentioning Shi Qing in front of the system, and focuses more on the male protagonist to prevent the other party from noticing anything unusual.

[Host, it's almost there! Those three canyons can be exchanged for upgraded Wind Control Stones and fly over.]

Chen Xiang: […fly?]

The system said: [Don't worry, host, it will only take a moment, you won't be afraid of heights. ]

Chen Xiang: [……]

Although it was only a moment, she was almost scared to death the moment her feet left the ground.

Near noon, she finally followed the tracking symbol and found the place where the three people were resting.

However, Shen Xiang did not dare to show up directly. She hid in the dark and used the Cangxi Pill to conceal her figure.

[This is a good place,] Chen Xiang looked around and said, [Exchange the maze formation you recommended last night for me.]

[Okay, host! ]

The so-called maze array is a magic array that can produce three different illusions, corresponding to the things that people desire most in their hearts, attracting people to set foot.

It will not suddenly present some things that have passed away, but will proceed step by step, arouse people's deepest desires, thereby prying into their hearts, weaving beautiful dreams, and making people indulge in them.

The maze array itself does not have any lethality, but many people are addicted to it and are unwilling to escape, which gives outsiders an opportunity to take advantage. Shen Xiang wants to use the array to separate the three people, and then break into Zhongli Jin's illusion to save the boy. In this way, he will think that his deepest subconscious desire is her. Even if he escapes from the maze array later, he will have strange feelings for her because of their interactions in the illusion.

Huh, hh, hh, I'm such a genius!

With the formation plate in hand, Shen Xiang was ready to activate the spiritual power in and out of it, but at this moment, several women's voices suddenly came to his ears.

"Hey! Three fellow Taoists, it's fate that we meet. The grass here is soft and comfortable to sit on. I wonder if I, a young lady, can rest with you?"

Shen Xiang: “…”

She turned her head abruptly and looked towards the lawn, and her heart suddenly sank - Lingxia Sect!!!

Shit! I got robbed!!
The maze array has large and small sizes. Chen Xiang's points can only be exchanged for a small one, which can accommodate three people. It is just right. But now three women from the Lingxia Sect suddenly showed up, and the array is not enough! !

It's so annoying!! Why are the missions always sabotaged intentionally or unintentionally!!

Shen Xiang was so angry that his teeth itched, but he had no choice but to rush out and drive those three women away.

*
——Didn’t we agree that no Lingxia Sect disciples would come to the back mountain? ?

Looking at the three charming women who suddenly appeared before them, Zhongli Jin and disciple Xu beside him seemed to have a headache.

Thinking of what the purple-clothed woman said yesterday afternoon, they suddenly felt that they were too naive to think that they could solve the problem once and for all by simply switching the front and back mountains.

The Lingxia sect will not give up easily on the people they love - does that mean they are even willing to venture into the back mountain, right?
"I'm sorry," Zhong Lijin said with a bow, "This place is small, I'm afraid it can't accommodate several sisters from the Lingxia Sect."

Disciple Xu also nodded in agreement: "If you want to rest, we will get up immediately and make room for you fellow Taoists."

The teenagers and young men maintained the most basic politeness and calmness on their faces so as not to be so difficult to describe.

Only Shi Qing always had a calm face, staring at them expressionlessly - "Go away."

Cangying said that we must stay away from the disciples of Lingxia Sect.

Then, she twisted her fingertips and an invisible barrier appeared beside Zhongli Jin and the others, separating the woman who wanted to get closer.

The three women: “…”

Hey man, was it you who made that thing yesterday?

It was clearly just a Jindan barrier, but even a female disciple in the late Jindan stage couldn't break it.

It seems that the sword-cultivating disciple from Sanqing Mountain is indeed very powerful.

but--

The three women looked at each other, with excited smiles on their red lips.

Haha! They also came prepared!

The next second - the formation is activated!
Peach trees suddenly grew around them, forming a peach forest that trapped the three people.

A strange and exotic fragrance came, like a dream.

Zhongli Jin was startled and said, "Cover your mouth and nose!"

I didn't expect those strange scents could actually penetrate the barrier.

Shi Qing sealed his senses, and disciple Xu covered his face with a wet handkerchief.

Unexpectedly, the three women laughed softly when they saw this and said, "It's useless, little Taoist friends, this is the Seven Emotions Illusion Formation."

——The Seven Emotions Illusion Array!
Zhongli Jin paused. He forgot where he had seen the relevant description, but he remembered the usage of the illusion array clearly in his mind.

Its function is similar to that of the maze array, but compared to the maze array which weaves a one-to-one illusion, the Seven Emotions Illusion Array can pull all those who enter the array into the same dream.

Those who enter the array will lose their memories, fall into a psychedelic dream, and experience a love tribulation with different identities. If their Taoism faith is firm and they remain unmoved by love, they will soon wake up.

But if you fall in love with the person of your dreams, you can only sink into it with him/her for a lifetime before you can get out of it.

Once trapped in the magic circle, the effect of the elixir will be greatly reduced.

My vision suddenly became blurry and my head ached severely.

That was when the memory withdrawal began.

*
Seeing that the three women not only intercepted her but also used the magic array before her, Shen Xiang could not stand it anymore. She jumped out from the bushes nearby, threw the disk of the maze array in her hand away in anger, and shouted angrily: "Assholes! Don't think you are the only ones who have the disk!!"

"!" The three women were startled, and the maze formation was activated at their feet, instantly separating the three people!

Come on! Let’s hurt each other!!
One after another! Damn it! Let’s die together! Let’s perish together!!!

"A maze array?!" A woman was frightened and wanted to escape, but it was too late. The array formed a venue and trapped the three people inside.

Of course, Chen Xiang also killed one thousand enemies and lost eight hundred of her own, and she was also trapped in the Seven Emotions Illusion Array.

After listening to the system's introduction about the effects of the Seven Emotions Illusion Formation, Shen Xiang felt a mouthful of blood choking in his throat!
Dragging everyone into the fantasy world, doesn't that mean everyone is playing together?

My consciousness suddenly began to blur, and various scenes appeared before my eyes, which were very similar to the kaleidoscope of scenes before my death in my previous life.

But before he completely lost consciousness, Shen Xiang still insisted on raising his middle finger to the three women and said what he wanted to say most in his heart at the moment -

"You Lingxia Sect...are playing...really extravagantly..."

If she hadn't trapped the three people with the maze array, wouldn't it have been a 6p situation? ! ! !
This is too much! This book will be banned! !

According to legend, there was a monster on a small road leading to Xiangzhou. Anyone who passed by that road would disappear for no reason. As time went by, people who went out avoided that place and would rather take a detour and walk for two or three days than go there.

But one day, two knights heard relevant information in the inn and decided to go there.

The innkeeper turned pale and tried to dissuade them in a hurry: "No, no! Young men, please think about it. It's a monster that eats people!!"

Unexpectedly, one of the young men in white laughed. Even though he was wearing a bamboo hat, his voice, like the breeze and the bright moon, was enough to arouse people's imagination. They couldn't help but imagine how handsome and beautiful the face under the bamboo hat must be.

"I know the shopkeeper is worried, but it just so happens that my brother and I are the ones who can exorcise demons and monsters!"

Leaving behind a remark of youthful frivolity, the young man turned and left. The moment he stepped over the threshold, a long sword that could cut through iron like mud suddenly appeared out of thin air. The young man leaped onto the sword, flew into the air, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The young man who stayed behind bowed to the shopkeeper, paid for the tea, and also disappeared in front of everyone.

At that moment, everyone exclaimed that they had met a god.

He bowed repeatedly in front of the gate, feeling extremely terrified.

"Monster? No monster has ever escaped from my hands." Xu Zhongtian caught up with Zhong Lijin. The young man heard the sound of his senior brother flying the sword and smiled at the young man.

"Junior Brother Zhongli, you must not underestimate the enemy." Xu Zhongtian reminded him: "I remember that the road to Xiangzhou is full of peach blossoms. Perhaps, it is a peach blossom demon. You must be careful."

"Peach Blossom Demon?" Zhong Lijin looked at Xu Zhongtian and asked, "What is the difference between a peach blossom demon and other demons?"

The young man explained: "The peach blossom demon, with its charming fragrance and beautiful appearance, is most likely to seduce men with its love and then eat them."

　Here we go!!! Good night everyone! The character design of Shi Qing is in the comment section, it’s probably like that!
