After learning the levels of the spirit masters, Ye Liuyun continued to study the Illusory Technique.
This illusion technique was really amazing. The mechanism is to provide an opportunity for his own Divine Sense to communicate with the opponent's Divine Sense, triggering the opponent's various emotions, and then let the latter Divine Sense automatically deduce the next story.
What followed was the grasp and understanding of changes. A person's Divine Sense could identify and remember all kinds of changes, and the main point of the carrying out an illusion was to comprehend the variables and changes and deduce accordingly.
That was, the person performing the illusion provided guidance, and the other party cooperated. The two of them completed the process of this change together.
"This is really strange! The illusion was actually created by two people working together!" Ye Liuyun muttered.
After reading the Illusory Technique a few times, he did not become greedy. Instead, he began to study the most basic expression, fear, and tried to create a scene of the Thunder Raging Fire Annihilation.
He was familiar with the power of thunder and lightning and flames, so it was easier to start from there. The vulture naturally became his training partner.
With the cooperation of the Phantom Eyes, it was much easier to create the illusion. Soon, he could pull the Divine Soul of the vulture over and let its Divine Sense communicate with his own.
Ye Liuyun spent the whole night studying this illusion.
The more he practiced, the more proficient he became. However, it was still too slow to launch an attack now. He could only succeed if the opponent was like the vulture, standing still and waiting for him to attack.
Later, Ye Liuyun felt a little tired and his Divine Soul felt a little worn out. He immediately stopped to rest and took a Soul Concentration Pill.
Just as he was digesting the Soul Concentration Pill, Ye Liuyun had a sudden realization.
This illusion could be integrated into the cultivation method!
His current cultivation method lacked changes. If he integrated these illusory skills into the cultivation method, his attack, body movement, and all other movements would be full of variables, which were hard to predict. He would even confuse his opponents and hallucinate them.
"Amazing!"
Ye Liuyun slapped the ground and jumped up. He immediately began to integrate these illusory skills into the technique.
All kinds of moves were immediately full of spiritual changes, as if they had the vitality of life. There were endless variables, which had exceeded the limits of the original moves.
This had finally solved the problem that Ye Liuyun was currently being restricted by the cultivation technique.
On that day, he began to combine all kinds of techniques and feelings. He even used his hand as a knife, lightning as a knife, and finger as a knife.
A streak of Genuine Condensation shot out and turned into nine strands. They were separated into nine and then merged into one. Sometimes, even his Phantom Eyes could not tell the true nature of these strands of Genuine Condensation.
His figure was the same. He could be as ethereal as an illusion if he stood still.
Moreover, he had also practiced all kinds of moves to the extent that they could deceive the opponent's senses and Divine Sense. All of this was due to the strength of his own Divine Sense, as well as his comprehension and understanding of illusions.
Although he hadn't even reached the small completion of the Illusory Technique, his various cultivation methods had improved by a whole level.
At dawn, Ye Liuyun stopped cultivating and slept soundly for a while to relieve his fatigue.
Two days later, a deacon of the Comprehensive Hall came to deliver a message and interrupted his practice.
"The reserve for the inner disciple Ye Liuyun, the twenty-sixth reserve for the inner disciple Long Yue, has issued a challenge to you. A battle was arranged in three days. Until that time comes, it will be viewed as admitting defeat if you are absent."
After sending him the message, the deacon left.
"Oh? So Long Yue really wanted to challenge me?"
Ye Liuyun sneered and paid no more attention to it. He continued to study the illusions.
But before long, Qi Tianyue came to interrupt him again.
"Liuyun, you have to be careful of Long Yue. His current realm has already reached the peak of the Ninth Level of the Genuine Condensation Phase. He's almost on par with the top ten of the outer disciples. What he practices is the Long family's Dragon Sun Fist. It's the simplified version of the middle grade Heaven Level Dragon Sun Technique of Holy Martial Academy. It's very powerful. The reason why he's eager to become the top one among the outer disciples is that he wants to get a reward, namely the complete version of this Heaven Level skill."
Qi Tianyue knew a little about Long Yue's strength, so she came to remind Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun did not care about Long Yue. Instead, he asked, "The top outer disciples can be rewarded with a Heaven Class cultivation technique?"
"Yes, you can go get a Heaven Class cultivation technique from the Inner Gate. Don't you know that?" Qi Tianyue asked.
Ye Liuyun shook his head. Indeed no one had mentioned these things to him.
If he had known, he would have challenged the people in front earlier. He was worrying about how his cultivation method needed to be upgraded.
"Oh, that's not what I want to tell you! I want to remind you to be careful of Long Yue! Dragon Sun Fist is a fire attribute cultivation method..." Qi Tianyue came to her senses and changed the topic.
Ye Liuyun grinned at her. "Don't worry, he's no match for me at all. Don't worry!"
Ye Liuyun's attitude was filled with a strong sense of self-confidence. He did not treat Long Yue as an opponent at all.
Qi Tianyue looked at his smile and was a little surprised. However, when she thought of Ye Liuyun's extraordinary performance in the past few days, it was completely normal. Ye Liuyun was no longer an ordinary person in her eyes, but a monster!
"Alas! I should not have been so worried about you!"
Qi Tianyue sighed in her heart. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she hesitantly said to Ye Liuyun, "There's one more thing..."
She hesitated for a moment.
"Just say it!" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Qi Tianyue was relieved to see his confident smile, so she said it.
"Well. Your two seniors are not doing well recently. Do you know?" she asked carefully.
"My seniors? What's wrong with them? I don't know!" Ye Liuyun's expression changed slightly. He had a bad feeling.
Ye Liuyun and Qi Tianyue immediately rushed to the Outer Disciple's encampment.
Ye Liuyun released his Divine Sense far away and saw Song Yi and Li Mengxi in the room. Both of them looked haggard, but Song Yi was even more miserable. There were obviously many scars on his body, and he was lying on the bed groaning in pain.
Ye Liuyun came to Song Yi's room, opened the door, and walked in. Li Mengxi followed him when she heard the voice.
Seeing that it was Ye Liuyun, Song Yi struggled to get up, but Ye Liuyun held him down and did not let him get up. Then, he took out a few healing pills and gave him one. He also gave one to Li Mengxi and left the rest to Song Yi.
Song Yi and Li Mengxi both looked ashamed, but they did not refuse his pills. It seemed that they were really not doing well.
After taking the pill, Song Yi's condition was slightly better.
Ye Liuyun asked them what had happened. At first, they didn't say anything, but in the end, they couldn't resist Ye Liuyun's coercion and told him.
Three days ago, Yuan Meng, Chu Li, and Xu Lang came to them separately, looking for all kinds of excuses to find fault with them.
They treated Li Mengxi better as they just gave her some heavy work. They didn't like Song Yi at all, so they beat and kicked him.
In just a few days, the two of them had been tortured so badly that they had no time to cultivate, and Song Yi had been seriously injured.
Among the three people who bullied Song Yi and Li Mengxi, Yuan Meng ranked third in the list of Outer Disciples, Chu Li ranked sixth, and Xu Lang ranked ninth. Their strengths were much stronger than Huang Wenxuan's.
"It looks like my performance last time didn't manage to set up my reputation. Chang Hao's dog has upgraded again!" Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and understood what was going on.
He suppressed his anger and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Song Yi and Li Mengxi also looked bitter.
"We're also afraid of disturbing your cultivation. We wanted to endure for a while and thought that we'll be fine after this period of time! And we can't always rely on you!"
Li Mengxi lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Ye Liuyun.
It seemed that she didn't want to tell Ye Liuyun. She had a strong personality and didn't want to keep bothering Ye Liuyun.
"We're fellow disciples. Do we need to be so polite? If you don't tell me, can you deal with it yourself?"
Ye Liuyun was burning with rage. His imposing manner was not restrained at all, causing the few people in the room to tremble in fear.
