Chapter 241 Hallucination (8000)
Those resources are just sitting there, so why not wait until I get them and then see if there are any important progress bars.
At present, he has not found any information related to the golden finger, nor the so-called mystery that can be solved.
Since he didn't find it, he took this opportunity to find more progress bars, which was worth the trip.
As Xu Bai waved his hand, everyone followed him and walked towards the designated location.
...
According to the previous description, to deliver all the resources to the headquarters, they must pass through a place, and this is a good place for ambush.
Xu Bai didn't care about these people, and asked them to stay here and notify him if there was any situation. He was thinking about the matter of killing the Saint Mind God with the golden finger not long ago.
There was no other way before, so he used this trick, and he didn't have any relevant memories.
Although he had no memory, he still found some unusual places. The most important thing was that he was in mid-air at the time, but when he woke up after fainting, he was standing on the ground.
This is something worth pondering.
Could it be that the golden finger took over his body and did these actions?
Of course, these are just his guesses, but with this guess, he proved that the golden finger can indeed take over his body.
"So what exactly is Xiao Jin?" Xu Bai rubbed his chin with his hand and thought secretly.
At this time, not far ahead, City Lord Si slowly walked over with a dull face.
"People are coming. They should come one after another. A small group of people have come."
"Oh?" Xu Bai's eyes lit up, and he temporarily gave up thinking and came to the dark to observe.
Not far away, there was a man carrying a bag and coming slowly.
They were flying from the sky, and they were all masters of the Transcendent Realm.
"Is there anyone you don't know?" Xu Bai asked.
You still have to be steady when doing things. He wants to see if there are any strangers here first. If even City Lord Si feels strange, he will have to think of other ways.
Si Chengzhu shook his head: "No one I don't know."
After receiving the reply, Xu Bai nodded. If there were no strangers, he would be relieved.
His soul swept across and swept the people in the sky. The next moment, all these people were controlled and fell from the sky to the ground. Their faces became dull like wood.
Since there were no strangers, Xu Bai commanded these people to hide again in the simplest way.
Next, there were several waves of people like this, all of whom were controlled by Xu Bai's soul.
In this way, after about half an hour, a large number of people had accumulated here.
Xu Bai rubbed his hands: "Are there any others coming?"
Si Chengzhu took a rough look and compared them with the people he had seen before in his memory. Finally, he shook his head: "No more."
In other words, all these people have been collected by Xu Bai now, and there are no fish that have escaped.
"Okay, all of you open your bags and let me take a look." Xu Bai commanded.
As he finished speaking, everyone present opened their bags and dumped out all the resources inside, piling them on the ground like garbage.
Xu Bai searched through them one by one and found that most of them were useless things. Although they were very useful to people in the industry, there was no progress bar.
"No way, does he not have a book either?" Xu Bai thought to himself.
In this era of resource depletion, it is normal that there are no secret books left, but Xu Bai does not believe that a master who has entered the Sainthood will not keep any.
He continued to read patiently, and finally after searching for a long time, he saw a book with a golden progress bar.
"Good stuff!" Xu Bai's eyes lit up and he picked up the book.
Just when he was reading it just now, he found that the progress bar of this book was extremely slow.
The slower the progress bar, the more likely it is a high-level skill.
Although he only glanced at it, he could see that this thing was definitely not simple.
With this feeling, he first opened the book, glanced at it roughly, and then saw the content inside, and felt slightly happy.
"I didn't expect to get this thing. It's really unexpected." Xu Bai was delighted.
As he opened the book just now, he suddenly found that the content on the book was the experience of failing to become a saint. He just glanced at it roughly and confirmed its content.
And this experience of failing to become a saint was written by the saint who was alive. He failed once when he broke through to become a saint, so he wrote down his experience, and succeeded in the second time.
The most important thing is that this experience of failing to become a saint is different from what he got before. It was written by a person who had already become a saint.
In other words, the level of this book is much higher. He roughly calculated it again. The progress bar is indeed much slower. Maybe he can get something different from it.
Xu Bai excitedly put the book into his arms and went to look for other things again. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything else related to the book.
If he didn't find anything else related to the book, then he had to make plans for the next step.
Xu Bai touched his chin, walked back and forth, and thought about what to do next.
The things have been cut off, but there is only this book that is useful to him.
The current situation is that he doesn't know when the ruins will be finished, so he has to continue looking for clues.
So the question is, how should he find clues?
Now he has only one clear direction, that is, the headquarters of the Mofa Pavilion. Only there can be new clues.
However, these things are not just for him to go. There are three saints there. If he goes, it will be extremely dangerous, and if it goes wrong, there will be other big problems.
In short, it is a bit too hasty to decide to go to the headquarters of the Mofa Pavilion now.
Thinking of this, he plans to let these people continue to escort the resources to the headquarters.
At present, the most important resource for him is only one copy of the failed experience of becoming a saint, and he only takes one copy. For such a huge amount of resources, it is not a big deal to lose one copy, so there will be no risk of exposure.
This is what he had considered before. If he needed a lot of resources, he would not send them, and it would be another plan.
But now he only takes one copy, and these things can be sent over to reduce his risk of exposure.
Although these people can be controlled within the range of his soul, the headquarters of the Mofa Pavilion is still a long way from here. Once they are out of the range of soul control, Xu Bai cannot control them.
But these are not big problems. Xu Bai's true energy surges, and with a little movement, he modifies the souls of these people, making everything very smooth.
They will not feel that they are being controlled, and the matter of handing over resources has never been discovered in their minds, and they will continue to escort them as usual.
After doing all this, Xu Bai waved his hand and let these people leave, and he was ready to return to the city first and think carefully about what to do next?
At this moment, a figure suddenly flew across the sky. Xu Bai looked up and found that it was a master of the Transcendent Realm. He had seen this master before, not in the ruins, but in the human world.
This person should be the one who entered the ruins.
This time entering the ruins was very different from the last time. Last time, he came in with other people, but this time he was alone, with no trace of other people.
Until now, he still felt a little strange about this matter. Suddenly meeting someone coming in from outside, Xu Bai immediately prepared to stop this person.
But before he could make a move, he found that there were two strange-looking things chasing after this person.
Although they were said to be strange-looking, they were actually human-shaped.
One was fat like a ball, and the other was thin like a bamboo pole.
There was a tyrannical aura on these two people, and they were chasing madly.
Xu Bai's eyes condensed slightly, and he had sensed that the two guys chasing that person were not human, but had turned into the existence of mind gods.
When he came here, everything went smoothly. Except for meeting the Saint-level Mind God, nothing else happened. Now he actually met two Mind Gods, which made him more interested.
In the sky, the master of the Transcendent Realm was still running for his life. At this moment, the two Mind Gods who were chasing him suddenly stopped, which made him confused.
He turned his head subconsciously, and then he saw a brilliant white light burst out from the bodies of the two Mind Gods, turning into smoke all over the sky and disappearing.
This scene made the Transcendent Realm master stunned on the spot, and even forgot to run away.
"Dead... dead?"
He knew very well what realm these two Mind Gods were in.
They were in the same realm as him, but now they died in an instant, which made him a little confused.
At this moment, he felt that there was a gaze, watching him.
Subconsciously following the gaze, he saw the person standing on the ground.
Then, the Transcendent Realm master showed an ecstatic look on his face.
"Prince Xu!"
He shouted as he landed on the ground, the excitement on his face was so obvious that anyone could see it.
It's stable! This time it's completely stable!
At the beginning, those who entered the ruins actually had one idea, that is, to hold Xu Bai's thigh.
But what they never expected was that this time they didn't see Xu Bai directly.
This made them all feel lost.
But now he met Xu Bai, which gave him hope.
As long as he stayed by Prince Xu's side, this time it would be stable.
Don't forget who Prince Xu is. Among the current extraordinary masters, Prince Xu dares to say that he is the second, and no one dares to say that he is the first.
Extraordinary...
That is the strongest realm below the Sainthood.
As long as he does not provoke the Sainthood God in this relic, Prince Xu can kill from beginning to end.
Xu Bai also saw the excitement of this person, and naturally knew what this person was thinking. He frowned and said, "Don't get excited first, tell me what happened to you first."
After hearing what Xu Bai said, this person slightly suppressed his excitement and slowly told his story.
Xu Bai finally understood the cause of the incident.
This person's name is Zheng Hong, and he is the patriarch of a family.
If a family has a master of the Transcendent Realm as the patriarch, it is also considered a second-rate family.
Don't underestimate a second-rate family. Even a second-rate family is rare in this world.
And because of this, this time the relic is very large, and he also wants to come in to try the opportunity to bring benefits to his family.
The fact is indeed as Xu Bai thought. Only Xu Bai was separated this time. The others were together. They didn't know what Xu Bai experienced, but now Xu Bai already knew what they had experienced.
The place where they landed was a deep mountain. The mountain was very strange. There was no sign of any living creatures, not even an ant. There were only a group of people like them.
At that time, they thought that they might as well start searching from this mountain, so they really did it, but the result was unexpected.
They walked directly from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, but unfortunately, they didn't find anything on this trip. It was a little dark at that time, so they wanted to come down from the mountain.
At that time, they didn't think about dispersing their actions.
After all, this is a super-large relic. There are indeed a lot of resources in it, but the danger is also multiplied.
So what they thought was that everyone would unite and evenly distribute the resources if there were any, so that they could better ensure safety.
Unexpectedly, it was because of this that their journey down the mountain was full of ups and downs.
When they went up, they didn't encounter anything, not even people, but when they came down, they met a person, a ragged blind man holding a long banner with unclear words on it.
They knew that they had met a local in the ruins, and judging from the situation, it seemed that he had not turned into a mind god.
So they thought about going up to communicate and see if there was any benefit.
But they never expected that before they took two steps, this person would attack them directly.
The speed was so fast, and he was actually an extraordinary master.
Fortunately, there were also extraordinary masters on their side, so they stopped the attack.
They also knew that the negotiation could not be successful, so they prepared to take down this blind man, but then something changed. This blind man turned into a mind god without any signs in front of them.
Without any signs, he turned into a mind god, and there was still a pre-casting time for casting, but the speed at which this person turned into a mind god was so fast that it was incredible.
Of course, it would be fine if he turned into a mind god. At most, everyone would kill him. But before they could do that, countless mind gods appeared on the empty hill.
The number of mind gods was so large that it was terrifying.
Even though they had a lot of people, they couldn't bear it and soon turned into a disadvantage and started to run away.
But running away was useless. Soon, their disadvantage was completely irreversible. Being chased by so many mind gods, they gradually dispersed from a whole and fled for their lives.
Zheng Hong didn't know the situation of other people, but he was lucky enough to meet Xu Bai. If he continued to run like this, he would be caught up sooner or later, and the consequences of being caught up were obvious. There was only one way, death.
"I see." Xu Bai touched his chin.
In this case, there was nothing else in that place.
It was nothing more than a large-scale transformation into mind gods, that's all.
There were many places where the ruins had problems, and it was normal to have such a situation.
No!
Xu Bai had that idea just now, but he quickly dismissed it himself, because of the word "large scale".
One or two is fine, they may have discovered his difference, but large-scale appearance, this is a different meaning.
"How far is that location from here?" Xu Bai asked.
The fact that these people can run out proves that there is no saint-level existence there. If there is, none of these people can escape, and it is impossible for Zheng Hong to run in front of him.
Zheng Hong pointed to a direction: "Just follow this place, the first mountain you encounter is it."
Xu Bai looked at the location pointed by Zheng Hong, and snapped his fingers at the other people present.
Soon, these people walked towards the city with stiff movements.
After they returned to the city and left Xu Bai's soul range, they would forget these things like the previous people, and forget them extremely smoothly, and there would be no problems like before.
Since there was something unusual, Xu Bai planned to take a look. Anyway, there was no Saint-level mind god there, and he could kill them all by himself.
"Find a safe place for yourself. I'll go over and take a look. If anything goes wrong, I can't protect you." Xu Bai said.
This was absolutely true. He didn't have time to be a babysitter this time.
Zheng Hong sighed, and he also knew the stakes.
He really didn't want to go to that place. Thinking of the overwhelming mind gods, he felt a little scalp numb now.
So, Zheng Hong found a place to shrink and said goodbye to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai didn't stop, he flew up directly, jumped into the air, and rushed to that place...
...
The location Zheng Hong mentioned just now sounded very far away, but it was not far when he started to rush.
Not long after, he had arrived at the scheduled location.
Looking at the dark mountain in front of him, Xu Bai touched his chin and didn't see anything unusual. He gradually expanded his soul and didn't feel the presence of mind gods.
Thinking carefully, the mind spirits here should have gone to chase other people, and they are probably gone long ago.
"In this case, wouldn't I have come here for nothing? No, I have to check it out anyway?"
Although the soul has already covered the mountain, Xu Bai still plans to walk inside in person, after all, it is safer.
Thinking of this, he raised his foot and walked inside.
After just stepping into the mountain, what he felt was the same as what Zheng Hong told him before.
There is no life, not even an animal.
Xu Bai thought for a moment, and followed the method of Zheng Hong and others, walking from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The whole way was also stable, and there was no abnormality.
"It seems that the problem appeared on the way down the mountain."
Standing on the top of the mountain, feeling the sharp cold wind on the top of the mountain, Xu Bai thought for a while, and turned around and walked back the way he came.
On the way back, it was still the same road. Stepping on the soft soil under his feet, Xu Bai continued to rush to the foot of the mountain as if walking on flat ground.
I thought he would have no obstacles next, but he encountered an accident when he was halfway up the mountain.
A middle-aged man in ragged clothes, holding a long banner in his hand, was standing not far from him. The middle-aged man's eyes were not closed, but wide open.
From Xu Bai's perspective, this person's eyes had no pupils, but instead, a turbid color, which looked extremely scary.
"Blind man, long banner, is this the blind fortune teller?"
"No, didn't this blind man go to chase those people? Why is he back here again?"
"What's going on..."
When Xu Bai saw this person, he quickly thought of what Zheng Hong said before, and his heart became even more confused.
But now, he didn't have time to think more, because the blind man in front of him took action.
A cold wind blew up, and the blind man stabbed the long sail in his hand towards Xu Bai. Xu Bai could feel that the blind man in front of him did not become a mind god.
He was just an ordinary person, why did this happen?
But the situation in front of him did not allow him to think too much.
A brilliant light burst out from his hand, and the next moment, the long sail of the blind man in front of him was directly smashed into countless pieces by him.
The blind man stepped back a few steps, and the ground under his feet cracked, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.
"Thief, don't be so reckless!"
Although he was not as strong as Xu Bai, he was not afraid at all. He shouted and prepared to attack again.
"You can still talk, it seems that it is not what I thought, so let me know the truth."
Xu Bai said indifferently and waved his hand gently.
The soul of the blind man in front of him was instantly controlled by him and became stagnant.
"Tell me everything you know, what is the situation here?" Xu Bai asked.
The blind man opened his mouth and was about to speak.
But what he didn't expect was that before he could say this, a breeze blew and he returned to his original state.
"What's the situation, what happened to me just now?" The blind man was shocked and looked around.
His action indicated that he had recovered from the state of being controlled by his soul and was no longer under Xu Bai's control. Due to some blanks in the control just now, he could not remember many things.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and turned to look at the top of the mountain.
"There is a master."
Then, without saying anything, he turned around and ran away.
The Soul Killing Art can control, and has reached the first level of entering the Saint, but someone can dissipate his control ability in an instant. What does this mean? It means that the person who took action is definitely at the level of entering the Saint.
The three known Saint masters in the world are in the Mofa Pavilion. This is what Xu Bai knows.
But he is not sure about the others. At the beginning, one Saint was killed. Now there should be eight. Excluding the three in the Mofa Pavilion, there are five left.
Where are these five?
Did something unexpected happen?
No one could figure it out.
But Xu Bai knew that he had met another person now.
If he didn't run away, would he stay here for the New Year?
While Xu Bai was running, he directed all kinds of attacks at his soul. As long as something was wrong, he would directly trigger it, attack himself, and then get Xiao Jin out.
He could only use this kind of porcelain-touching method now, and there was no other way.
A voice came from behind him, interrupting his escape.
"My friend, you have extraordinary talent. I haven't even seen you. Why did you run away when you saw me?"
"Don't you know who I am? But everyone in the world knows that among the nine saints, I am the most amiable one, and the most gentle one."
"Everyone in the world is eager to see me, but you ran away when you saw me, which proves that you don't know me. From this, we can infer that you are not from this world. Then who are you?"
...
At the beginning of the voice, it was behind Xu Bai, but when the voice fell, it was already in front of Xu Bai.
In front of Xu Bai, a chubby man appeared. The man was wearing ordinary gray and white cloth, but his face was kind, and he looked like a good old man.
Xu Bai was stunned, and he almost couldn't hold back.
It was not because of this man, nor because this man wanted to talk to him, nor because this man was a saint master.
The most important thing was the appearance of this man.
Although the man looked fat, Xu Bai could tell from his facial features and the outline of his face that he looked like someone.
——Wuhua!
That's right, the man's head was also bald. If he had long black hair and was a little thinner, he would look exactly like Wuhua.
"This time, I really learned a lot."
Xu Bai couldn't figure out what was going on. He needed to go out and find someone who knew about this, such as General Manager Mu, to discuss this matter with them, because everything in front of him was too weird.
How to explain this situation?
Reincarnation, or something else?
In short, it's too early to draw a conclusion.
Xu Bai still didn't let down his guard and aimed his soul-killing skill at his own soul. As long as there was something wrong, he would attack immediately.
Seeing Xu Bai like this, the fat man smiled bitterly and said, "My friend, don't be so nervous. My brother has been driven away by me. He will never cause any harm to you."
"Your brother?" Xu Bai raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
Inexplicably, another brother suddenly appeared, making Xu Bai unsure.
The fat man explained: "I have a twin brother. Both of us occupy a winning position, but we have completely opposite personalities. I am a very kind person. Maybe you sound a little boastful, but everyone thinks so, and my brother is completely different. He is an extremely cruel and violent person."
"The specific situation is like this..."
In this space, only Xu Bai and the fat man were left. The blind fortune teller at the beginning had left.
As the fat man slowly explained, Xu Fan also understood the cause and effect of the matter.
According to the fat man's explanation, after the resources were exhausted, he and his brother had been living in seclusion here. As masters of sainthood, they naturally had a lot of resources and a bunch of subordinates.
But when two different ideas merge together, conflicts will occur, and he and his brother had conflicts.
The two of them were like fire and water here, and they couldn't stand each other.
Originally, there was no big problem, at most they just couldn't stand each other, but he didn't expect that not long ago, his brother and his subordinates suddenly became abnormal.
This mutation came without any warning. Almost in an instant, most of the people turned into monsters, and monsters that he couldn't understand.
Then, he and his brother fought each other, and he killed his brother with an extremely weak advantage.
And with the death of his brother, those who fell into madness turned back.
But not long ago, a group of people came.
He hadn't seen this group of people, but with the arrival of this group of people, the people who had turned back turned back to the previous state.
They all went to chase those people. If he hadn't reacted quickly and used his means in time to make these people recover, it is estimated that all the people being chased would have died.
"As you can see, he has recovered." The fat man said.
He was referring to the blind fortune teller, and also those who became mind-reading gods.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes: "Oh, I see, I want to leave now, get out of the way."
The fat man smiled and said: "It's not easy in this world now. It's not easy to meet someone. Little brother, why don't you follow me, I'll find a place, we can have a good chat, that place has what you want."
Xu Bai shook his head: "No, I want to go back now."
The fat man stretched out his hand: "Little brother, now that resources are exhausted, you should follow me. I have a lot of resources that can keep you alive for a long time."
Xu Bai sighed: "Forget it, I'll kill you."
The fat man was stunned and didn't react for a long time. He didn't understand why Xu Bai said such a thing.
"Little brother, I didn't hear what you said just now."
He seemed to not believe his ears and wanted to confirm it again and again.
Xu Bai moved his fingers and smiled: "I say, just kill you. It seems that you are not in the realm of saints, and your ability to tell lies is also much worse."
"Let me think about your ability..."
"The fortune-teller who was supposed to chase people suddenly came back. If it was normal, you could say that you saved him, but it's impossible now."
Are you kidding?
Even if he is a saint, he will become a god. How to save him?
If it was normal, this lie would really be made up, but it's different now. This is the biggest shortcoming of this lie.
Because the fat man in front of him doesn't know about the god.
Xu Bai saw the fat man's face change, and continued: "Also, why do you conclude that you are not a saint? If you were a saint, you would have taken action long ago. Why are you hesitating?"
It's the same old saying, don't talk if you can take action.
This guy talked to me for so long, and still wanted to keep me. It's obvious that he is not strong enough.
Then the ability of this man is about to be revealed.
"Illusion, or related ability."
"The blind man is an illusion, so I didn't actually control him, but you cast an illusion that let me control him."
"In the end, you made the control disappear, which is also your illusion, including your current saintly aura, which is also an illusion."
"I guessed right."
The fat man's face changed, becoming extremely cold.
"No, you guessed a little wrong."
