King Of Chaos

Chapter 295 Ch 295: Layered Illusions

“Hey kid, what is your name?”

The lion cub arrogantly looked at Ye Xiao and asked. At the same time, a terrifying pressure suddenly attacked him. This pressure caused the entire cave to tremble, however, Ye Xiao did not take a step back which surprised the lion cub.

“Kid?”

No matter what, Ye Xiao was no longer a kid. Being called a kid by a lion cub made Ye Xiao feel very strange.

“In front of me, the Evil-eyed Golden Lion that has lived for an unknown number of years, you are surely a kid.”

The lion cub spoke, at the same time, it kept observing Ye Xiao.

The Lion Cub could feel another Ancient Divine Beast’s bloodline from Ye Xiao’s body, but he could not tell what kind of bloodline it was.

“Tell me your name!”

“Ye Xiao!”

“You have the bloodline of an Ancient Divine Beast?”

“Yes!”

“Which one?”

“Endless Blade Oceanic Turtle!”

“A turtle, huh!”

The lion cub kept looking at Ye Xiao and finally spoke, “You were able to see the Water Source Crystal even though I had hidden it inside this Ice Crystal that is also a Celestial Destroyer-ranked treasure. Your eyes are very special.”

“Let me introduce myself first. I am the Evil-eyed Golden Lion, one of the Ancient Divine Beasts. I am also the guardian of this Water Source Crystal. Since you were able to see the Water Source Crystal, you are qualified to go through my test. As long as you pass my test, I can give you this Water Source Crystal as your reward.”

“A test?”

Ye Xiao suddenly recalled the words of Lotus of Chaos. The Lotus of Chaos told Ye Xiao that the Evil-eyed Golden Lion is guarding the five Rule Source Crystals of the five elements, and it has created the Deep Sea Abyss for testing people. Only the worthy person who could pass its test could obtain those Rule Source Crystals.

“What kind of test?” Ye Xiao asked curiously.

The lion cub smiled and vanished. However, a voice kept ringing in the air, “Since you asked, it means you are ready for the test. Your test is to kill the Master of this cave. As long as you can complete this test, the Water Source Crystal will be yours.”

The Lion Cub disappeared, but it left behind a mystery for Ye Xiao to solve.

His mission was to kill the Master of this cave. It also means he has to first find who the master of this cave is.

Inside this cave, there should also be several dangers. He has to be careful.

At the same time, he has no idea what happened to those five people or where they are currently.

Ye Xiao did not think much. If it really comes to something horrible that he cannot deal with, he will simply break the seal.

But he doesn’t think that will be necessary, after all, he has simply too many trump cards to use.

Ye Xiao once again looked at the giant Ice Crystal. This Ice Crystal turned out to be a Celestial Destroyer-ranked Treasure, and the Water Source Crystal is hidden inside this Ice Crystal.

‘Master of the cave, huh!’

Ye Xiao muttered silently in his heart, turned around, chose a random tunnel, and entered.

Ye Xiao simply walked forward, somewhat enjoyably. When one didn’t know what was ahead of them in adventure, they tended to feel either frightened or excited.

Obviously, Ye Xiao was more excited than frightened. After all, with his strength, there was no need for him to be scared of anything.

After fifty meters, Ye Xiao suddenly came to a stop. It is because he suddenly felt something and his surroundings changed. A river of magma appeared below him and he started falling. The temperature also suddenly increased, from chilling cold to burning hot.

“Illusion!”

Ye Xiao could not be more familiar with illusions. He stopped in his tracks previously because he suddenly felt the illusion attacking his mind. He knew that an enemy was taking advantage of the darkness to attack him with illusions to test his capabilities. As long as that enemy finds Ye Xiao weaker, they will surely try to kill Ye Xiao.

“Break!”

Ye Xiao shouted and a burst of aura exploded forth. Waves of air swept over and the illusion was instantly broken.

Ye Xiao was still in the same dark tunnel.

Ye Xiao waved his hand and fire lightened up the tunnel. At the same time, a horrible-looking giant creature with ten red eyes appeared in Ye Xiao’s view. Its face was huge, and more importantly, the face was even grinning at Ye Xiao.

Is this the Master of the cave?

Ye Xiao shook his head immediately after this thought appeared in his mind. It is because he doesn’t think that the Master of the cave will try to block his path in this tunnel.

Knowing that its illusion is broken and it has been exposed to the enemy, that creature acted immediately and attacked Ye Xiao with one of its legs.

Ye Xiao flipped back in a weird posture and avoided the giant creature’s leg.

“Boom!”

An explosive sound rang in the air. Ye Xiao turned back, only to see that the wall of the tunnel had been collapsed by the creature’s leg and that rocks were falling.

Ye Xiao immediately prepared to attack the creature but then he stopped again. He realized that something was wrong.

Did this creature use illusion again?

Ye Xiao frowned, however, the giant creature with ten red eyes was still in front of him. It also raised one of its legs to attack Ye Xiao once again.

Ye Xiao hurriedly dodged and raised his hand. The Infinity Edge Blade appeared in his hand as Ye Xiao slashed it.

Crack~

The enormous leg of the creature was cut apart easily, and blood started raining.

“Hu! You are truly scary.” Ye Xiao looked at the giant creature and said again, “I did not expect you to create a layered illusion!”

Yes, it was a layered illusion. It means Ye Xiao was trapped in several layers of illusions. The previous magma river was one layer and this giant creature was the second layer. There might be other layers of illusion as well.

After breaking the first layer, he was stuck in the second layer.

Without thinking much, he flashed and appeared above the giant creature with ten red eyes, and slashed with the Infinity Edge Blade once again.

This time, several arcs of blade light appeared in the air before attacking the giant creature’s body.

“Boom!”

Another explosion occurred and fog appeared at the place of the giant creature. Along with that, the second layer of the illusion was broken.

However, the next moment…

“Ye Xiao, promise me you will return soon. We will be waiting for you!”

“Yufei…”

Ye Xiao looked at Zhao Yufei in front of him in shock.

However, before he could take a good look at her, another girl wrapped her arm around Ye Xiao’s arm and said, “Why are you even leaving? Can’t you stay here with us? You told us that the time difference between Chaos and the Heavens is irregular. One year in Chaos might be tens of thousands of years or even hundreds of thousands of years in the Heavens. What will happen if you live and eras pass? Are you truly planning to keep us sisters waiting for you for eras?”

“Xiaofei!”

This lady was Xue Xiaofei. Ye Xiao could not be more shocked.

“Hiss!”

Ye Xiao gasped hard and pinched himself, only to sense real pain. He was amazed by the vividness of the illusion.

The enemy actually created an illusion from Ye Xiao’s memories. It was using his wives against him.

The sight Ye Xiao was looking at was the time when Ye Xiao was about to leave the Heavens and step into Chaos.

His wives, Zhao Yufei, Zhao Qing’er, Xue Xiaofei, Su Xue Er, and Yue Ying were standing in front of him, looking at him with tears in their eyes. The reluctance to separate could clearly be seen on their pretty faces.

“Ye Xiao, we won’t stop you from leaving. However, you have to promise us that you will return in less than a year. One year in Chaos might be several thousands of years for us after all.”

Suddenly, Ye Xiao felt the change in the air. The expressions on the five ladies who were reluctant to separate just a moment ago turned grim. Dark energy started rising from their bodies and even their faces started deteriorating.

“Yes, you have to promise this. Otherwise, even if we have to kill you, we will not let you leave our sides.” Yue Ying spoke with an evil smile.

“No!” Su Xue Er shook her head and said, “It’ll be better to keep you with us. Even as a corpse, you’ll have to stay here with us. We can not let you leave!”

As time passed, their words became more and more ruthless. And then a time came when the five beautiful ladies had already turned completely demonic, and rushed to Ye Xiao with swords in their hands.
