Chapter 98: Chapter 94: Passive Skills Surge (2-in-1)_2

But as long as it’s a computer, it will eventually have a limit to its computing power.

When Su Huaiying touched the Eternal Demon Sword, she, as the host of the illusion, entered another illusion... But this second illusion also needed the current illusion to simulate it.

However, this illusion couldn’t do it, so it could only force the host to reload the file, returning to the very beginning.

In plain terms, this act burned out the CPU of the Void Illusion Realm...

Chen Kuang held his forehead and sighed deeply.

Doesn’t this mean, damn it, that it’s like a teleport back to the starting point?

Forever entering one illusion after another... never able to get out.

Su Huaiying looked at him and asked, "So, the plan is stuck?"

Chen Kuang replied, "It’s not just stuck, it’s completely unworkable."

Su Huaiying said, "You found Tie Baiyuan after I entered the illusion, which means that to contact the Langhuan Fragment again, I must first enter the illusion."

"Yes indeed."

Chen Kuang sighed, "But now you can’t enter another illusion while inside the current one."

Su Huaiying thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "You don’t have to follow the predetermined path exactly—we can avoid the Demon Sword node."

Chen Kuang was stunned, then his eyes lit up, "Please continue, Your Highness."

Su Huaiying continued, "According to you, after the illusion of the Demon Sword is lifted, the memories of the people affected will be altered, making them fall into madness."

"In this case, the greatest influencing factor is actually time."

"Only after many years do memories fade and conflicts arise."

She put her short and small fingers together, then gestured a length.

"However, if we count from the Demon Sword node to now, it’s actually only been three days, and after that, regarding the Demon Sword, the only people aware of its existence are us."

"So even if we alter this segment of memory, it won’t have much impact."

"As long as the general outline is the same, you can explain the situation to them afterward."

Chen Kuang pondered for a while and decided, "Feasible!"

"But it’s best to minimize changes and use other factors to replace the Demon Sword... How about having Your Highness pretend to faint sickly after coming ashore? This way, we can ensure the subsequent consistency as much as possible."

Su Huaiying nodded in agreement.

She had been in a coma in the outside world and was unclear about the subsequent developments, so she still had to rely on Chen Kuang to control the overall situation.

But the butterfly effect is so strong that even a small change could result in completely different outcomes...

While Chen Kuang and his party were walking on the road, they suddenly encountered some bandits trying to rob them.

After killing these people, when spending the night that evening.

To his surprise, the status panel, which had been inactive, suddenly refreshed and added a new line!

[You intercepted some money and food from the bandits, obtaining the passive "Wealth Promotion Seal": Your fortune will improve as your wealth accumulates. The richer you are, the more you will gain.]

Chen Kuang’s eyes widened, and he almost jumped up from the ground, his "calm demeanor" nearly breaking!

Woah! It actually succeeded!

A day with changes in the illusion genuinely brought about a new passive!

In other words, he can actually use the illusion to grind for passives!

Chen Kuang took a deep breath, looked at the peacefully sleeping Su Huaiying beside him, and muttered, "I’m sorry, Your Highness, but I’ll have to trouble you to repeat this several times with me."

Previously, he was afraid that changing the predetermined trajectory would bring other changes, but now that it’s altered, it might as well be used.

The next day, after Su Huaiying woke up, she noticed that Chen Kuang’s mistakes were increasing gradually...

[You walked past a nest of ants without squashing any and obtained the passive "Mercy of Life": Creatures spared by you have a chance to repay you.]

[You read a book three times and obtained the passive "Photographic Memory": You can remember everything you’ve experienced.]

[You passed by a Go stall and intervened, causing one party to lose by following your advice, obtaining "Grandmaster": In chess, you can easily predict your opponent’s next move.]

[Within a meter from the enemy without being noticed, you obtained the passive "Invisible to Me": You can sense and avoid others’ attention, making yourself more elusive.]

[In a near-death encounter, you killed an enemy, obtaining the passive "Extreme Counterkill": In dangerous situations, your abilities will be enhanced; the more dangerous, the better the effect.]

[...obtained the passive "Bullet Time": ...]

[...obtained the passive "Mirror Flower": ...]

[...obtained the passive "Silent Night Thoughts": ...]

[...obtained the passive "Shift and Substitute": ...]

...

Qing Cuo looked at the Bai Mei Daoist before him and said coldly, "Speak faster."

Jingshan Daoist hurriedly said, "Then... you must first make a Heart Demon Oath, promising to spare my life!"

Qing Cuo frowned, and Jingshan Daoist quickly corrected himself, "Not a Heart Demon Oath, not a Heart Demon Oath, just a Heart Knot Oath will do!"

Qing Cuo relaxed his brow and swore as requested.

Only then did Jingshan Daoist say, "After the Governor found out Chen Kuang was here, he had already informed the experts from the Martial Saint Pavilion to come for an encirclement! I’m afraid three members, close to the Grandmaster Realm, are about to arrive! All three have significant status, with many disciples under them!"

"You better quickly escape with this Chen Kuang, or it will be too late!"

Qing Cuo felt a heavy heart, realizing the Martial Saint Pavilion would not let this go!

How long has it been since Di Wu died and they’ve already sent people over.

This Martial Saint is really determined to see Chen Kuang dead...

But at this moment, Chen Kuang was rescuing the Little Princess in the illusion, a crucial moment not to leave lightly.

If they couldn’t leave now, things might end tragically.

Qing Cuo looked at the Daoist before him and said, "You signed a Divine Soul Contract with that Governor, why betray so decisively?"

Jingshan Daoist smiled fawningly, "Well, the reward is just a mystical Spiritual Treasure, why exert myself? I’m simply getting paid to solve other people’s problems."

He rubbed his hands, his aura of uprightness gone, replaced with a sleazy demeanor: "To be honest, I’ve long seen that what the Governor is doing is playing with fire."

"I’m just waiting for him to destroy himself, so I can reap the benefits like a fisherman."

"Efforts don’t betray the determined; I certainly welcomed you, the righteous messenger here to dispense justice!"

Qing Cuo frowned, "Reap the benefits like a fisherman?"

Jingshan Daoist hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, "Ah no no, I mean, those who engage in many injustices will perish; once he dies, won’t those things be mine... wouldn’t you agree?"

For evil cultivators like him, there’s no such thing as a moral baseline.

Qing Cuo understood this, took a breath, and said in a low tone, "Go on, I won’t kill you."

Jingshan Daoist immediately turned into a streak of light, escaping swiftly.

Yet, as he flew midair, he let out a miserable scream and fell dead.

Qing Cuo didn’t kill him, but Shen Xingzhu could...

Qing Cuo descended to the Chen Mansion, which had already fallen into chaos, with Chen Mansion people and soldiers locked in battle.

Chen An was fighting fiercely with a leading soldier.

Although he was an Eight Vessel, he was just an Eight Vessel, too young, and started training late, only able to fight evenly with the soldier.

But the adversary wasn’t alone...

A careless move sent Chen An flying, crashing into a pillar and spitting blood, gazing at the chaos within the Chen Mansion, sinking into despair.

The soldier grinned, charging at Chen An again.

Suddenly, a flying sword rushed at the soldier’s forehead, piercing through the crown of his head in an instant.

The soldier’s eyes widened and he collapsed abruptly.

A green figure gracefully landed on the wall.

Chen An’s pupils constricted, shock written on his face, "It’s you?!"
