Chapter 770: Chapter 211 Gains Precious Treasure, Scares Ba Tan Insane (10,000 Word Plea for Subscriptions)_5

Don’t believe it?

Don’t forget one of the battle mechanisms of the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique, which is that the initial combat power of the Four Great Gods is almost the same, but if you can make one god absorb the divine power of another god.

Then the combat power will soar linearly.

At that time, not to mention Ju Mang or Zhu Rong, both will be invincible in the world.

This is the strength of the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique.

Chen Jie thought to himself and fell into deep thought, but he didn’t notice that the figure of the old Taoist in front of him gradually became fainter.

When he came back to his senses, he saw that the old Taoist had already become ethereal.

Chen Jie was shocked, ”Master, you, what’s happening to you?”

But he then saw the old Taoist say, ”Hehe, my mission is complete, and I should dissipate now.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie was startled, ”Master, dissipate, you...”

The old Taoist said, ”Yes, actually I died over a hundred years ago, and the only reason I have been able to linger on is by borrowing the power of Tai Sui, that is, this Mirage!”

Chen Jie looked at the old Taoist with a confused face.

The old Taoist slowly spoke of his current state.

Originally, the old Taoist had been severely injured during the extermination battle in Chang Chun Valley more than a hundred years ago. Later, he had barely managed to preserve his life by using Spring God’s Fury and fled west to Mianshui County.

He happened to arrive during a major flood in Mianshui, with pursuers close behind.

The old Taoist found this large Mirage and dived into its stomach.

To have the Mirage protect him, he fed it an Enlightenment Pill.

After eating the Enlightenment Pill, the Mirage actually developed Spiritual Wisdom, and then helped the old Taoist block the pursuers.

When the pursuers saw the large Mirage, they knew they couldn’t defeat it and had to retreat.

Thus, the old Taoist survived inside the belly of the Mirage.

But he was too severely injured, and eventually, his physical body died inside the Mirage’s stomach.

However, it was as if heaven had shown favor; after the Mirage ate the Enlightenment Pill, it developed Spiritual Wisdom. After the old Taoist died, it used its Divine Skills to transform illusion into reality.

This was an ultimate manifestation of Illusion Technique, where the Mirage would perfectly present whatever it imagined within its own body.

For example, the Medicine King Treasure was almost entirely materialized by the Mirage using this method of transforming illusion into reality.

This included the Dan Room; it was all intangible.

They were illusions created by the Mirage, illusions so convincing they could deceive reality.

Of course, there were parts that were not illusions, such as the Elixir, many of which the old Taoist had brought back from Chang Chun Valley over the years. Also, the herbal medicine yard outside was planted by the old Taoist.

The Mirage’s body contained incredibly terrifying nutrients, which could allow these herbs to grow rapidly.

However, such a method was not sustainable. Even though the old Taoist had obtained the Mirage’s permission to stay there permanently,

ultimately, he was dead, and it was torture for his soul to be trapped there every day. If he weren’t waiting for a successor, he would have dispersed long ago.

After all, to maintain his current physical state, he was enduring torture akin to being sliced by a thousand knives every minute, so when Chen Jiusi accepted the inheritance, the old Taoist had completed his historical mission.

He no longer wished to continue suffering and chose to disperse his body. As for future matters, they were all entrusted to Chen Jiusi; his mission was already complete.

The old Taoist said to Chen Jie, ”Disciple, I entrust you with the lineage of Chang Chun Valley. I can’t help you anymore. Much knowledge is within the Valley Master’s Iron Ring; look into it yourself.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie felt a bit downcast, ”Master, you...”

The old Taoist laughed, ”I am liberated, hehe. Disciple, until the next life.”

With that, the old Taoist turned into a cloud of dust that scattered and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing the old Taoist directly turn into rising dust before his eyes, Chen Jie felt a pang in his heart.

He was undoubtedly a respectable predecessor; he had entrusted everything to him, and the only way to do him justice was to glorify Chang Chun Valley.

Chen Jie thought to himself, then suddenly realized that everything in front of him was collapsing.

Everything was returning to nothingness.

Chen Jie was stunned as pavilions, terraces, towers, everything collapsed.

Because all of this was supported by his memory, and when he vanished, the Mirage wouldn’t have the power to sustain such elaborate illusions, so everything returned to nothingness.

Chen Jie felt everything in front of him collapsing.

At the same time, a voice rang in his ear, ”You, are you that old man’s successor?”

”Uh, who?”

Chen Jie heard the voice beside him which sounded like that of a five or six-year-old child.

Chen Jie was startled, ”Who are you?”

”Me, who am I? Oh yes, who am I.”

At that time, the voice also seemed to be confused, and Chen Jie paused before saying, ”You’re not the Mirage, are you?”

”Mirage? What’s that?”

The child’s voice sounded puzzled again.

Chen Jie thought for a moment and became more certain that this was likely the Mirage in front of him.

After all, no one else was present here, and it didn’t seem particularly intelligent, but it could speak the language of humans. Chen Jie remembered what the old Taoist had said, that he had given the Mirage an Enlightenment Pill.

The Enlightenment Pill, as the old Taoist had explained,

Not only could it be given to humans but also to animals, even allowing animals to develop spiritual intelligence. Chang Chun Valley had many powerful Spiritual Beasts in the past.

A Spiritual Beast was a powerful Fierce Beast that had been fed an Enlightenment Pill to develop spiritual intelligence.

And this child of about five or six years old must be the Mirage that had eaten the Enlightenment Pill.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie said, ”You’re speaking to me, do you need something?”

”Um, that old man dispersed, all the fun toys disappeared. I want new toys, you little bugs can help me.”
