Invincible Soul Emperor

Chapter 784: Chapter 784: Illusory Realm

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng fought side by side, as the surrounding illusions surged forward like a tide. The illusions were bizarre and bewildering.

Some bore the faces of Xue Feng’s closest loved ones, teeming with endless love and care; others manifested Xue Feng’s deepest fears, accompanied by cruel mockery and threats.

Strangely, none of them were familiar to Xiao Xiao.

”Xue Feng, don’t be fooled by them!” Xiao Xiao shouted, swinging the Fire Elemental Sword in her hand.

The red sword aura tore through the air, splitting the illusion before them in two. The illusions let out piercing screams and dissolved into nothingness.

Xue Feng followed closely behind, the ice element in his hand coalescing into a gleaming ice spear.

He thrust forward quickly, the icy spearhead carrying a bone-chilling cold, freezing the illusions one by one.

The frozen illusions shattered instantly, turning into countless ice crystals, dispersing into the air.

However, the number of illusions seemed endless; every time they shattered one wave, more illusions surged from all directions.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng’s stamina gradually waned, sweat beaded on their foreheads, but their expressions remained resolute, not daring to slacken.

”Break them all!” Xue Feng shouted, swinging the ice spear once more, piercing a massive illusion, which shattered in the air, turning into countless fragments.

”Xue Feng, something seems off!” Xiao Xiao responded, the Fire Elemental Sword in her hand emitting a dazzling light, her slashing speed increasing.

But she kept sensing that something was subtly amiss around them.

Xue Feng heeded her words, becoming instantly more vigilant.

Suddenly, the surrounding scene changed again, the illusions around them growing incomparably huge and terrifying. A towering figure emerged from the darkness, exuding an endless pressure, as if intent on crushing their will completely.

”Do you really... think you can defeat me?” the figure sneered, its voice deep and evil, as if coming from the depths of Hell.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng exchanged a glance, a hint of determination flashing in their eyes.

Xiao Xiao gripped the Fire Elemental Sword tightly, calmly saying, ”Can we defeat you? Only one way to find out!”

The figure let out a cold laugh, then suddenly lunged forward.

Its hands transformed into huge claws, moving with immense speed and power, reaching straight for Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng.

Xiao Xiao quickly dodged, the Wood Elemental Sword in her hand dancing, drawing a red sword aura, slashing directly at the giant claw.

The sword aura was incredibly sharp, instantly slicing through part of the claw, yet the severed claw rapidly healed, as if it had never been injured.

”This guy is tough!” Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Xue Feng wasn’t idle either, the ice spear in his hand spinning, unleashing bursts of cold air, freezing the figure’s other claw. However, the claw only stalled momentarily in the cold, then swung again, pressing straight towards Xue Feng.

”We must attack together!” Xiao Xiao shouted, quickly moving to Xue Feng’s side, with a wave of her hands, the fire element quickly coalesced, forming a red Light Shield, blocking the claw’s attack.

Xue Feng nodded, the ice spear thrust forward again, interplaying with Xiao Xiao’s Fire Elemental Sword, forming waves of powerful attacks, forcing the figure to retreat.

However, the figure seemed to possess endless strength, recovering quickly after each retreat, continuing to launch fierce attacks. Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng’s stamina gradually depleted, they seemed to be in a dire situation.

At this moment, a whisper suddenly emanated from the surrounding darkness, bearing an endless temptation and evil, as if whispering in their ears: ”Give up, you cannot defeat the Heart Demon. Accept me, and I can grant you endless power and riches.”

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng’s hearts trembled, the voice seemed to stir their deepest desires and ambitions. However, they quickly steadied their minds, rejecting that temptation.

”Little more than a minor skill. Is that all you’ve got?” Xiao Xiao said firmly, her eyes full of disdain.

Xue Feng also calmly said, ”This guy doesn’t look anything like the Heart Demon, not even up to the trials of the Xue Family!”

The figure seemed angered by their words, its laughter grew more sinister and evil, then launched another attack.

This time, it moved faster and hit harder, carrying an unparalleled pressure, as if determined to crush Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng completely.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng fought with all their might, the Fire Elemental Sword and ice spear continuously swinging, unleashing waves of powerful attacks, engaging in fierce combat with the figure.

”Xue Feng, just a bit more!” Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth, the Fire Elemental Sword in her hand emitting a dazzling light, piercing straight at the figure’s chest.

Xue Feng shouted, the ice spear spinning in his hand, carrying a biting chill, fiercely stabbing towards the figure’s head.

The figure let out a roar of anger, waving its hands, attempting to block Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng’s attacks. However, their strikes carried immense determination and resolve, finally breaking through the figure’s defense, hitting it hard.

The figure let out a wretched scream, its body collapsing gradually, disintegrating into countless black fragments, dissipating into the air.

The dark figure among them shattered into countless black fragments under the lethal attack, turning into nothingness.

However, just as Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng were about to breathe a sigh of relief,

the surrounding darkness surged once more, countless new illusions emerged from the ground, more cunning and fierce, exuding an endless evil aura, as if attempting to devour their souls.

”Damn! They’re back? Xue Feng, watch out!”

Xiao Xiao shouted, her sword emitting a dazzling light, swiftly swinging it.

The red sword aura carved arcs through the air, slicing the approaching illusions into pieces one by one.

Xue Feng was not backing down, the ice spear spinning in his hand, carrying a chilling cold, each thrust could freeze an illusion. These illusions rapidly froze in the cold, then shattered into countless ice crystals.

However, these illusions seemed endless, whenever they shattered one wave, more illusions surged from the surrounding darkness. Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng’s stamina gradually waned, their breathing becoming labored.

”Xiao Xiao, we need to find the source of these illusions!” Xue Feng shouted, the ice spear in his hand blocking an illusion’s claw.

The dark figure they defeated earlier might have only been a fragment of the source!

”Okay!” Xiao Xiao responded, her eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to locate the source of the illusions.

At this moment, a large crack suddenly appeared in the surrounding darkness,

Xue Feng nodded, his gaze sweeping around, suddenly his eyes fixed on that crack: ”Xiao Xiao, look there!”

Xiao Xiao followed Xue Feng’s gaze, seeing a dark figure manipulating the illusions within the crack. She immediately understood: ”That’s the source!”
