Chapter 426: Those Who Play Illusions Have Dirty Hearts

‘Human, do you know what illusion is? ’

Faced with the question of the skull's mystery, Meng Yiran answered: "Illusion is a method of mental attack. It is based on one's own mental power, combined with some inadvertent but secret movements, sounds, and even drugs, to make the opponent's body fall into a trance. In this state, the mind produces various hallucinations and eventually collapses.”

'That's right. ’

The Skull Mystery was quite satisfied, and then changed the topic and asked: 'So answer me, who the bastard told you that you are an illusionist? ’

"Xiaoyou."

‘.? ’

Not hearing Skull's mysterious answer, Meng Yiran repeated again: "Xiaoyou."

‘.Okay, I get it. ’

Obviously it is a plant without a head, and it does not have a body to feel pain, but for some reason, the skull mystery suddenly understood what humans call "headache".

Yes, it feels like a huge headache now.

Because this human being named Meng Yiran has nothing to do with the word "illusionist" from side to side.

‘He said yes, so be it. ’

Skull Mystery forced himself to accept the facts and said helplessly: 'Human, show me your illusion. ’

Meng Yiran nodded: "Okay."

The above is the conversation that took place deep in Meng Yiran's mind with Skull Mystery after Tang San was captured by Tang Hao and Gu You followed Xue Qinghe into the palace.

Facing Lei Tian's most powerful soul skill, Meng Yiran's eyes narrowed.

"Snake Rain!"

Meng still controls the core skill of the soul master, the third soul skill Snake Rain. The basic effect is to create an illusion of the fog and rain snake, the source of the soul ring, and consume soul power to materialize it.

But after many magical modifications, this soul skill has long since become a mess, losing its original youthful look.

For example, Gu You once said: "The elongated fog and rain snake is a fog and rain snake, and the fog and rain snake that is enlarged ten times is of course also a fog and rain snake."

"Varied…?!"

What happened in front of him made Lei Tian pale in shock. He saw the third soul ring on the snake staff shining brightly, and a huge python as tall as a person broke out of the ground behind Meng Yiran. While the sand and dust were flying, the Misty Rain Snake, which was ten times the size, opened its bloody mouth and bit into the huge thunder eagle that was flying towards it.

With the outstanding eyesight attached to the martial spirit, Lei Tian could clearly see the squirming muscles in the snake's mouth. One can clearly see the spread-winged eagle reflected in those cold snake eyes.

‘The real thing? ! ’

The lifelike super-large python scared Lei Tian so much that he wanted to fold his wings and avoid it. Before his wings could move, he suddenly heard the leader's voice in his ears: "Lei Tian, ​​calm down. Just the third soul skill, crash over."

The calmness in the leader's words quickly awakened Lei Tian, ​​who was caught off guard and anxious to avoid it.

Hot knowledge, before the emergence of soul ring age increasing technology during the Dragon King Legend period, the power of soul skills was directly linked to the soul ring age.

In other words, as long as it is not some mechanical soul skills similar to "Invincible Golden Body", nor is it a martial spirit like the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda that also enhances the effect of soul skills, it is uniformly the power of the skills attached to the later soul rings. The stronger.

No exceptions.

Therefore, Lei Tian's charged fourth soul skill "Brave Eagle Thunder Strike" is definitely stronger than Meng Yiran's third soul skill "Snake Rain".

The powerful formula of soul skills that he had learned was quickly recalled in his mind, and there was no longer any confusion in Thunder Eagle's eyes. The wings fluttered hard, thunder exploded, and the whole body turned into a blue thunder and rushed into the python's bloody mouth.

In nature, no matter how ferocious a snake is, it is just the prey of an eagle, and this time will be no exception.

The moment the Mist and Rain Snake released by Meng Yiran touched the current on Thunder Eagle's body, it was broken down and turned into mist again. The strong scales had no effect at all and were easily torn in half by lightning.

The thunder eagle broke through the snake rain with a majestic appearance, and its wingspan of five meters seemed to block out the sky and the sun. Spreading his thunder wings to completely block Meng Yiran's evasive route, Lei Tian pressed down mercilessly.

boom!

The terrifying electric current exploded instantly, and Lei Tian, ​​who had almost consumed all his soul power with one shot of his fourth soul skill, gasped for air in the rising dust.

Won, finally won.

The moment he saw the huge python, Lei Tian thought he was going to die. Fortunately, the team leader's timely reminder helped him grab a precious point from Tiandou Royal Academy.

As long as one more point is scored, Thunder College can drag the game into the team competition to decide the winner.

Okay, it's kind of funny to have a showdown with the best Wurm ever. But dragging the game into a team competition, he believes that his teammates can do it.

Lei Tian was expecting his teammates to inherit his will and continue to fight, and the referee finally announced the result of the game to everyone.

"Out of bounds, the winner in the second round is Tiandou Royal Academy."

"What!?"

Unable to believe the referee's decision, Lei Tian turned around suddenly and saw a pair of exquisite black leather shoes stopping in front of his eyes.

Lei Tian slowly raised his head, and the faint light from the dark purple soul ring came into view.

Meng Yiran, who was holding a snake staff and looked clean as if he had not participated in the battle, smiled lightly: "It's a bit too easy to defeat you."

‘Why is illusion magic differentiated from regular mental abilities and turned into a separate category? ’

"Although illusions and mental abilities are aimed at the spirit and are closely related to mental power. However, compared with simple and direct mental attacks, the effect and mode of action of illusions are not obvious. The mechanism is quite complicated, and the difficulty of using it is far higher than that of various common spirits. ability.”

‘You are right, illusion is such a complicated and difficult-to-use thing. ’

Even though it was a fairy grass that specialized in illusion, the skull puzzle couldn't tell Meng Yiran that "illusion is the strongest mental ability".

On the contrary, it was more happy that Meng Yiran didn't have a wrong understanding of illusion and could correctly understand the decisive difference between the two.

In other words, illusion is not easy to use.

Apart from other things, illusion is far inferior to other mental abilities in terms of simple and direct effects.

Among mental abilities, direct attack has mental shock, controlling the enemy has mental interference and mental confusion, and controlling oneself has mental detection and mental sharing.

The unified feature is simple and domineering, and it can take effect in an instant.

But illusion abilities are different. If you want to maximize the effect of illusion abilities, users often need to spend a lot of time and effort to plan.

In addition, users also need to have strong enough adaptability and a little luck.

Because of this, in the long history of Douluo Continent, except for one year, there is no second impressive illusion user.

If Shi Nian, who was at the Soul Saint level, wanted to kill Tang San silently, he had to first go through a process of torture and psychological defense with illusion.

Ten thousand years later, Huo Yuhao only needed a simple mental shock to kill his opponent.

Comparing the two, illusion is particularly rubbish.

Even if we don't compare Shi Nian with Huo Yuhao, the son of the plane, and look at the fight in the five villages next door where illusion is popular. The number of heads obtained by illusion is the lowest among the three types of ninjutsu, tai, and illusion, and almost no one will be killed by illusion.

'So, why did you choose to become an illusionist? '

The skull puzzle was very curious. The first two soul skills had nothing to do with illusion, and the mental power was not advantageous. The only advantage was that Meng Yiran was determined and observant. Why did she suddenly switch to illusion?

"Because Xiaoyou gave me two choices when I was confused."

'.So, you chose illusion among the two choices given to you by Guyou. ’

Looking at the booklet with the word “illusion” written in indigo on the table, the skull puzzle was silent.

“Right.”

Meng Yiran gently opened the booklet that he had pondered many times, and confidently said to the skull puzzle that was living in the snake staff: “Don’t underestimate him, he is a super genius who is destined to change the world of soul masters.”

“You can feel honored, skull puzzle. This booklet will change all your cognition of illusion and take you into a brand new world.”

“By the way, he also wants your report, don’t forget it after reading it.”

The expectant skull puzzle said impatiently: ‘I know. ’

The above conversation took place after Meng Yiran obtained the fourth soul ring and before Gu You set out for the Fiery Islands.

After achieving a complete victory for the first time, the excited Meng Yiran raised the evolved Fear Snake Staff and gestured to the surroundings.

The fourth soul skill of Meng Yiran, “Transformation”, taken from the Skeleton Owl, perfectly achieved everything Gu You expected of this soul skill.

That is, a comprehensive illusion that can affect vision, hearing, smell, touch, and taste at the same time.

First, use illusion to affect Lei Tian's vision, move the position while leaving a fake self, and also disrupt hearing and touch together to make him unable to identify the position of the audience seats.

Lei Tian thought that the circle was actually not round at all in the eyes of outsiders.

Discovering that Lei Tian planned to use the fourth soul skill to decide the outcome, Meng Yiran decided to use the trick against him.

Use the third soul skill to create a super-large fog rain snake, forcibly covering all of Lei Tian's senses for a short time. Take this opportunity to refresh your visual position in Lei Tian's eyes, move the fighting spirit arena and yourself outside the fighting spirit arena at the same time, and Lei Tian's big move hit the ground.

By the way, the leader's voice that Lei Tian heard was also an illusion of Meng Yiran. Discovering that Lei Tian was frightened by the sudden appearance of the super-large fog rain snake, Meng Yiran couldn't let him escape.

"Hey, why did the guys from the Thunder Academy suddenly attack the ground?"

"You ask me? Who should I ask?"

Almost at the same time as the referee announced the result, the silent crowd in the audience suddenly woke up. Everyone was curious about why Lei Tian's powerful charging skill hit out of bounds for no reason.

It would be fine at ordinary times, but under the temptation of the soul bone that is in high price, he would not be bribed by the Tiandou Royal Academy to play a fake game.

Lei Tian is not Feng Xiaotian, even if he has the word Tian in his name, he is not a dog.

In the audience, Xue Qinghe turned his head to look at Meng Shenji beside him.

It was a little difficult to say. She inherited the blood of the Angel Douluo before the secret room, and did not understand what happened on the field just now.

From her perspective, this soul fight was like this:

The referee announced the start of the soul fight, and Lei Tian, ​​who was possessed by the martial spirit, took off from the spot and flew around in the air. Meng Yiran, who was left on the ground, began to glow with his fourth soul ring, and then slowly walked to Lei Tian's original position.

Then Lei Tian released the fourth soul skill to charge and crashed into the empty ground of the fighting soul arena. A big snake appeared out of thin air. After a pause, Lei Tian was extremely excited after successfully smashing the big snake. He flew directly out of the fighting soul arena and left a big hole.

Very strange, really very strange.

Meng Shenji explained calmly: "Your Highness, starting from the second soul skill, Meng Yiran no longer followed the plan of the Dragon Snake Family to become a quick attack soul master."

"The excellent third soul skill Snake Rain, plus the fourth soul skill "Transformation" which is also an illusion soul skill, made Meng Yiran determined to completely abandon the snake staff training method inherited by the Dragon Snake Family, and turned to exploring the combat method of using illusions to fully control the battlefield."

"Lei Tian's abnormal behavior must be related to Meng Yiran's new fourth soul skill."

After listening to Meng Shenji's introduction, Xue Qinghe, who reached a cooperation agreement with Gu You and respected his and his teammates' privacy, instantly had a soul master's name in his mind.

"Similar to Shi Nian?"

Meng Shenji nodded and admitted Xue Qinghe's guess: "Yes, similar to Shi Nian."

"Control-type soul masters who use illusions are rare in the world. Meng Jiaoyuan, you must train them well."

After speaking, Xue Qinghe turned his head and bowed to the dragon and snake woman sitting behind him: "Senior Meng Shu, your way of cultivating your granddaughter's decision-making ability is really admirable."

Qian Renxue asked herself, she couldn't give up the stable inheritance left by the ancestors of the Wuhun Hall and embark on an unknown road alone.

The sudden praise from the prince made Meng Shu blush.

Thinking that he had not provided any help to his granddaughter, he smiled and said, "You are too kind, Your Highness. But she is still young and needs more guidance from you and the Education Committee."

Hu Yanzhen, the leader of the Xiangjia Sect, who had been listening attentively without saying a word, suddenly said, "Mr. Long, are you interested in asking Shi Nian to be your granddaughter's teacher?"

"Although Shi Nian has a strange personality, it must be admitted that he has the strongest attainments in illusion in the entire continent. I believe that your granddaughter's illusion talent of playing with opponents in the palm of her hand will definitely impress that guy."

"It is said that Shi Nian is now a teacher at Canghui College. If you don't mind, my Xiangjia Sect is willing to recommend one or two as a guarantor."

"???" x2

Hu Yanzhen's sudden and nameless enthusiasm scared the knowledgeable Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang, who looked at each other in surprise.

Although the Dragon Snake Family has a small reputation on the mainland for their couple's martial soul fusion skill Dragon Snake Joint Attack, there are also many people who are usually enthusiastic and flattering.

When the target is the leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, which is one of the four lower sects and has the highest defense spirit Diamond Mammoth, Meng Shu has to say "I have never seen such a powerful situation before".

"It's not fair, leader Huyan."

Xue Qinghe shook his head and looked at Huyan Zhen who was seriously trying to build a relationship with a smile.

I didn't expect that Huyan Zhen, who looks honest and simple, would also want to steal the empire's wall.

Huyan Zhen turned a deaf ear to Xue Qinghe's words, stared at Meng Shu with his eyes, and said seriously: "My Elephant Armor Sect is willing to negotiate with Shi Nian on behalf of the Dragon Snake Family to let your granddaughter receive the best illusion education. I believe that you don't want to see your granddaughter fall into the misunderstanding of illusion, right?"
