Chapter 125: Chapter 109: Fall

"Is this the illusion created by the Mysterious Object? It’s indeed very realistic, very bizarre."

At the moment, Lin Yue was pulled into the illusion.

However, she noticed that the scenery around her hadn’t changed much; she was still in the Cultivation Room, the only difference being that Li Yi had disappeared from behind her, and some of her bodily sensations had also vanished, as if she was no longer a body of flesh, but merely a soul, an idea.

And... Lin Yue looked at her own palm.

Her originally fair palm was now becoming desiccated, the flesh was disappearing, and in some areas, sinister white bones could even be seen.

If it weren’t for her prior mental preparation, Lin Yue might have panicked at such a bizarre sight.

"This illusion has even trapped the chief of the bureau. I guess it would be difficult for me to escape, but fortunately, there is Li Yi outside to support me, so even if I’m trapped in the illusion, I don’t have to worry about dying here."

Lin Yue felt somewhat relieved.

As she relaxed, the speed at which her flesh disappeared slowed considerably.

This scene was noticed by Lin Yue, who also roughly understood what was going on.

However, she did not waste time, but instead walked around the hut and finally rested her gaze on the window on the wall.

The window was tightly shut; the outside conditions were invisible.

But when Lin Yue opened it, she found that in the sky outside the window, there bizarrely floated a segment of a wall that seemed to be made of White Jade. The segment was smooth and bright, with a relief mural on it, which depicted a skeleton sitting on a Lotus Platform, holding a Treasure Seal, with a smile that was not quite a smile.

The posture and expression were exactly the same as when Li Yi was cultivating.

Lin Yue merely glanced at the Bone Mural, and her gaze became hazy again momentarily.

Her attention was entirely drawn to the Bone Mural; everything else seemed to disappear; she felt as if she was in a vast white world.

In this vast white world, there was only her and the Bone Mural in front of her.

And the more she looked at it, the more mesmerizing the Bone Mural became.

Latterly, the bone figure detached from the mural, coming closer to her face, becoming a reality. Soon, a thin veil covered the skeleton, and then flesh began to grow on it, evolving towards a living human.

Lin Yue realized something, wanting to break free, to regain her clarity.

But it was futile.

The Bone Mural possessed an evil force, irresistible even to experts of Spiritual Sense, not to mention Lin Yue, who was only a Cultivator with inspiration.

"I want to see just how powerful this thing really is," Lin Yue, defiantly, did not resist the illusion but rather curiously observed it.

As the transformation of the bone occurred.

Soon.

Lin Yue’s cheeks involuntarily flushed, and she cursed under her breath.

The bone in front of her had now transformed into a completely nude man, with all physical features excessively apparent, making one dizzy to look at, but the only somewhat unclear thing was the man’s face, which seemed to be obscured by a layer of white fog, giving a hazy impression.

Although the face was unclear, the man emitted an overwhelming masculinity and allure, impossible for women to resist.

Yet inexplicably, after seeing this man, Lin Yue, a woman without any romantic experience, also felt a surge of rapid heartbeats, along with an indefinable desire erupting from the depths of her heart. This desire arrived furiously, like a raging fire wanting to burn her rationality to ashes.

And in the moment that desire was born, the hazy layer over the man’s face disappeared, revealing a familiar and amiable visage.

The man’s face bore a striking resemblance to Li Yi.

The appearance was a manifestation of deep-seated desires; the bone could assume eighteen thousand forms, this particular appearance obviously made it easier for Lin Yue to feel affection, to desire.

Indeed, upon seeing ’Li Yi’ appear, Lin Yue felt her head buzz, as if chains and limitations had been blown away instantly, and various sinful thoughts kept appearing in her mind, like being embraced, kissed, or even possessed... and all the imagined scenarios featured the Li Yi before her eyes.

With sinful thoughts stirring, desire born, she could no longer restrain herself.

At that moment, Lin Yue’s throat quivered, feeling her body burning with heat, she couldn’t help but take a step forward, reaching out to throw herself into ’Li Yi’s’ embrace, to turn all the fantasies into reality, to sink down with this dear brother and never wish to awake.

She was completely oblivious that the flesh on her body was rapidly disappearing, at this moment she had no previous form left, turning into a half skeletal figure.

Once Lin Yue completely succumbed, her consciousness would disappear, and the real her would turn into a cold corpse.

This is the terrifying nature of the Bone Illusion Realm.

And just as Lin Yue could no longer restrain herself, ready to completely unleash her inner desires.

Suddenly.

She felt everything around her rapidly disappearing, and her body shaking,

Then a familiar voice appeared by her ear, "Sister Lin, wake up."

Ten minutes had passed.

Li Yi supported himself against the wall as he walked over, pulling Lin Yue from within the caution zone, removing her from the Mysterious Artifact Energy Field’s encompassing area.

Once she was out of the Mysterious Object’s influence, Lin Yue’s eyes immediately regained their spirit, and she woke from the illusion.

"Sister Lin, how are you, are you all right?" Li Yi waved his hand in front of her.

Lin Yue didn’t speak; instead, she stared fixedly at Li Yi, a fiery blaze burning in her eyes. She couldn’t help but lick her lips, wishing she could consume him completely, releasing all the pent-up desires from the illusion. After all, this was the Cultivation Room, and no one would disturb them...

The more she thought about it, the more impulsive Lin Yue felt.

However, she quickly realized that something was wrong with her, and she forcefully slapped herself.

The pain temporarily suppressed the wicked thoughts in Lin Yue’s heart. Then she took several deep breaths to calm herself down.

"I, I’m fine, I just need to settle my feelings," Lin Yue turned her head away, daring not to look at Li Yi’s face, fearing that her desires might be provoked again.

But then her face blushed.

Confused, why had she seen Li Yi in the illusion?

Could it be that she had feelings for Li Yi?

No.

Definitely not.

It was all the evil Bone Mural’s doing; there was nothing but pure friendship between her and Li Yi, so how could such filthy thoughts arise?

Yet the Li Yi in the illusion was indeed robust and captivating, irresistibly so.

"Slap!" Lin Yue unapologetically slapped herself again, urging herself not to entertain wild thoughts.

"Sister Lin, are you okay, doesn’t that hurt?" Li Yi asked in astonishment.

Annoyed and embarrassed, Lin Yue glared at him, "Damn it, it’s all your fault."

But her scolding was mixed with feminine charm and allure, sounding more like flirtatious bantering between lovers than anything stern.

Lin Yue also realized her emotions were not in the right state, so she chose to keep silent and immediately closed her eyes to meditate, swiftly adjusting herself to neutralize the effects of the Bone Mural.

"How did this become my fault?" Li Yi scratched his head, completely baffled.

He hadn’t done anything, yet he was suddenly to blame.

After a long adjustment,

Lin Yue managed to suppress her desires, and her state returned to normal. The blush on her face faded considerably, although she still couldn’t help but avert her eyes when looking at Li Yi.

She hadn’t achieved the realm of being without fear or desire and couldn’t ignore her inner desires, so she feared confronting Li Yi directly.

"Cough, cough, I’m fine now. I was influenced by the Bone Mural earlier, so I was in a bit of an odd state, Li Yi, don’t take it to heart, let’s just forget everything that just happened," Lin Yue said awkwardly, her eyes flickering, not daring to reveal anything that had happened in the illusion.

Li Yi nodded, "I understand, the illusion of the Bone Mural is very powerful, I almost succumbed the first time too. But don’t worry, Sister Lin, I know a trick that might help you break the illusion."

"What method?" Lin Yue hurriedly asked.

She now felt a shadow in her heart, too frightened to enter the illusion a second time, knowing that if she went in with her current state, she would likely lose control and sink into it.

"This method is called the Bone-to-Meat Technique. White Bone Temple allows your flesh to turn into bones, you imagine bones turning into flesh, it manifests your inner desires, you imagine it in your own form, for a person does not desire themselves... when you successfully resist and win, then you can escape the illusion. I also used this method to succeed, or else I too would have been trapped in the illusion,"

Li Yi continued, "Of course, this method varies from person to person, it may not necessarily work, if all else fails, you can try viewing a beauty as bones, viewing bones as a beauty, to achieve a state of no fear no desire."

"Bone-to-Meat Technique?"

Lin Yue bowed her head slightly in thought, gradually grasping Li Yi’s method, then said, "Although it’s a method, it’s quite difficult, whether it’s the Bone-to-Meat Technique or achieving a state of no fear and no desire, neither is a simple matter."

"Then, Sister Lin, do you want to try again?" Li Yi asked, pointing ahead.

Lin Yue glanced ahead, then her mind involuntarily filled with various images, and her face turned red again. She then clapped her hands, "No, I have some insights today, I need to go back and ponder them thoroughly. I’ll come back here tomorrow to face this challenge of White Bone Temple illusion. You stay here and cultivate. I’m going out for some air. After I finish practicing, a phone call will do, and I will bring you back to the ward to rest."

With that, she left the Cultivation Room as if fleeing.

"It seems Sister Lin was scared by the illusion, somewhat afraid, needing to adjust her mindset. Indeed, anyone suddenly pulled into an illusion and quickly turning into a skeleton would be fearful," Li Yi surmised.

However, he hadn’t yet used the Bone Mural for cultivation.

Perhaps he should try out the cultivation effects of this Mysterious Object.

Thinking this, Li Yi promptly braced himself and stepped into the caution zone.

He wasn’t pulled into the illusion; his consciousness was clear, so he could use the energy field of the Mysterious Object for cultivation.

Right away.

Li Yi formed a Treasure Seal and performed the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill.
