”Fine. Send someone to contact that woman. Let’s see if she’ll agree to this.”

After struggling with the decision for quite some time, Xuan Yi finally nodded with a complicated expression.

When Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi saw him agree, smiles immediately appeared on their faces. With Xuan Yi convinced, they now had at least sixty percent confidence that they could persuade Qing Xianzi.

While the three of them were still discussing the matter, on the other side, Lin Feng—along with the other contestants—charged straight into the deep gray, distorted space ahead.

The instant he entered, he sensed the badge on his chest emit a strange ripple of energy.

Perhaps it was precisely because of that expanding wave that, the moment his body came into contact with the twisted space, a powerful suction force erupted from within, pulling him inside before he could react.

The sudden force made Lin Feng’s vision blur slightly. When he regained focus, he realized he was already standing within that same deep gray, distorted realm he had seen from outside earlier.

All around him, the air was filled with thick, deep gray mist. Even with his strength as a Dou Zun powerhouse, his line of sight extended no farther than a single meter.

Moreover, even within that limited range, he could see faint ripples of distortion running through the very fabric of space itself. Closing his eyes slightly, Lin Feng released his vast soul power, spreading it outward like rippling water.

However, that gray mist seemed to suppress spiritual energy with an extremely potent force. Even with his formidable soul, the suppression from the mist limited his perception to only about ten meters around him.

Anything beyond that was completely undetectable.

Still, as his soul power flowed outward, Lin Feng could sense faint fluctuations in the mist nearby—signs that more contestants were continuously entering this place.

”So this is the so-called Soul Fantasy Realm, huh? Seems the Pill Tower really went all out this time. Even with my Dou Zun strength and a late-stage Spirit Realm soul, I can’t directly shatter it.”

After carefully observing the surroundings, Lin Feng’s expression grew thoughtful, a hint of admiration flashing through his eyes.

This entire space was likely created by a Dou Sheng expert from the Pill Tower, forcibly distorting the void through sheer power. Inside it existed countless overlapping and warped dimensions.

Each person who entered might encounter a completely different set of challenges. If one wandered aimlessly like a headless fly, even someone as strong as him could easily lose their sense of direction—or worse, become trapped here forever.

Still, no matter how complex the Pill Tower’s Soul Fantasy Realm was, it was ultimately a man-made construct.

As long as he could trace the distortion patterns within the space, he only needed to follow the curvature of those twisted pathways to find the exit.

”This level of difficulty shouldn’t be a problem for Xiao Yixian, but… I just hope Xin Lan manages to get through safely.”

Extending his soul power outward again, Lin Feng could faintly sense the many contestants who, in their panic, had run blindly into warped space pockets and gotten trapped. He couldn’t help but shake his head helplessly.

Then, stepping lightly through the air, he began to move forward at an unhurried pace, following the safe route that his soul sense had mapped out.

This distorted realm turned out to be far more expansive than Lin Feng had expected. The countless overlapping folds of space intertwined so densely that the entire illusionary world resembled a vast and intricate maze.

Even a small lapse in attention could easily cause Lin Feng to stumble into one of those warped folds of space. So after walking for more than ten minutes, he finally sensed that the thick mist around him was starting to thin.

Along the way, Lin Feng had encountered quite a few other contestants wandering in this realm. However, more than ninety percent of them were trapped within the distorted spaces, unable to find a way out.

What disappointed him most was that, within this gray world, he hadn’t come across either of his wives.

Tap.

Just as Lin Feng sensed he was about to leave this foggy maze, the mist around him suddenly began to shift dramatically. Noticing the change, he quickly looked up.

Not far ahead, two elegant female figures appeared—one alluring and seductive, the other noble and graceful.

”Cai Lin… Yun’er!”

Seeing the two women, Lin Feng’s face lit up with pure delight.

After all, it had been years since he last saw them. Without thinking, he instinctively wanted to rush forward and embrace them. But the moment he took a step, a sudden sense of danger surged through his heart.

His raised foot froze in midair. Exhaling slowly, Lin Feng forced himself to calm down.

”The person who designed this Soul Fantasy Realm sure has a twisted sense of humor. To place something like this right at the exit…”

He shook his head helplessly and looked at the two women, who were smiling and beckoning him closer. Then he sighed softly.

With a flick of his sleeve, a gust of powerful wind surged forth, shattering the false images of Cai Lin and Yun’er into mist. As the illusion crumbled, the space distortion behind it was revealed once more.

Yet this time, the fold was different—it faintly emitted a strange, ominous black aura.

”Seems like even with my current strength, I still can’t afford to let my guard down when dealing with something set up by a Dou Sheng from the Pill Tower.”

Caution rising within him, Lin Feng pressed onward. Along the way, he encountered even more bizarre illusions. Gu Xun’er kneeling before him, begging to be accepted into his harem.

Xuan Yi appearing before him without a single thread on her body, holding out a sacred fruit and offering herself as his servant to atone for her past mistakes.

But none of these illusions managed to ensnare Lin Feng, who had long been mentally prepared for such tricks. He kept walking without pause, and after several minutes, the thick gray mist ahead of him finally began to thin.

Soon after, a massive swirling black vortex—over a zhang wide—appeared not far in front of him.

”That’s… the spatial passage leading to the Pill Realm, isn’t it?”

Lin Feng’s eyes brightened with joy at the sight of the vortex.

However, recalling the endless illusions he had just faced, he stopped in his tracks once again. Vast soul power surged from between his brows, sweeping over the vortex to examine it carefully.

”Seems fine. It’s a real passage.”

After thoroughly confirming there were no traps, Lin Feng finally relaxed. Then, stepping lightly through the air, he flew straight toward the swirling black vortex.

In the blink of an eye, his figure vanished from the gray realm entirely.
