Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate-Chapter 65 - Enter the Dragon God’s Illusion
Chapter 65: Enter the Dragon God’s Illusion
When Saint Zi Yan locked her gaze on Lin An, he felt a little nervous.
After all, Saint Zi Yan had suppressed her cultivation from the nascent soul stage to the peak of the golden core stage. There was a fundamental difference between her and the other peak golden core stage cultivators.
She had once experienced extraordinary powers that surpassed the essence of the golden core stage, and she also had an excellent understanding of the use of her magical powers at the golden core stage.
Fighting Saint Zi Yan would be like playing chess. The other peak golden core stage cultivators had the same number of chess pieces as her, but they were ordinary chess lovers. Saint Zi Yan was like a national grandmaster who had already won the chess tournament.
If Lin An started a war with her at that moment, his actions would be similar to a novice playing chess with a national grandmaster and giving up a horse cannon. Even if he used all of his treasures, he wasn’t sure that he could win.
Thus, Lin An couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
Saint Zi Yan was worthy of holding the title of the best disciple in the younger generation. Not only was her cultivation top-notch, but her control over her temperament was also very good.
Once she calmed down from her initial rage, her intelligence quickly took over the high ground.
She realized that if she continued to find trouble with Lin An in the arena, she would only be obstructed by the old referee.
Furthermore, she had no option but to enter the Dragon God Illusory Realm. If she couldn’t attack Lin An and injure him in the camp, then she would hunt him down once they both entered the illusion realm.
As she thought about it, Sain Zi Yan felt that there was no need for her to be in a rush. She didn’t have to kill him in the camp.
Even if he managed to exit the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm, Saint Zi Yan could still organize an attack and lead the disciples from the Purple Clouds Ancient Sect directly to Lin An’s sect. Would he be able to grow wings and fly once they attacked?
After Saint Zi Yan figured this out, she smiled sweetly at Lin An, and then she turned around and went to her resting place to adjust her condition and wait for the following day’s trip to the Dragon God Illusionary Realm.
As soon as Lin An saw Saint Zi Yan smile at him, he felt a wave of goosebumps forming all over his body.
At the same time, his scalp went numb. He didn’t know what to think about Saint Zi Yan’s sudden change in mood. However, her smile had been much scarier than her angry scolding.
After Saint Zi Yan left with her subordinates, Lin An felt a little confused again. He couldn’t figure out whether the Purple Cloud Ancient Sect disciples had given up on their intention to avenge Li Kuang’s death.
…
When the next day arrived, Lin An and the other group winners set out for the Dragon God Illusionary Realm under the guidance of the camp elders.
After they trekked through the deep forest in the fourth level of the mystic realm, they wound up at a door-like light cave that rotated day and night. The cave was the entrance to the Dragon God Illusionary Realm.
Among the four local camp members who had qualified to enter the illusionary realm, Feng Hen led the way into the circular light cave, and the purple-robed disciples closely followed him.
In order to ensure his own safety, Lin An walked at the back of the line to protect himself from being ambushed.
After entering the circular light cave, they arrived at an ancient stone hall. To their surprise, there were ten passageways along the walls of the ancient hall.
“Ten paths?” One of the purple-robed disciples asked in puzzlement. “Which one should we take?”
Immediately, Feng Hen answered, “You can choose one path for each of the ten cultivators, or you can choose one path for all ten cultivators. You can even split into several groups and go your own way. However, you only have one chance to choose an entrance. Once you enter a passageway, it’s impossible to return. You can only keep moving forward until you die or pass through. If we pass through, the mystic realm cultivators will return to the camp, but the outsiders will directly leave the mystic realm.”
“Which path did the cultivators who survived the Dragon God Illusionary Realm in your camp choose in the past? Or rather, which path did your elders tell you to take?” Saint Zi Yan asked curiously.
“The scenery inside each pathway is different every time a fresh batch of cultivators enters the illusionary realm. The only similarity is that there are ten paths. Therefore, the experience of past cultivators is meaningless. We can only rely on ourselves and choose our own paths.”
For a moment, the cultivators were in a dilemma. On one hand, they were afraid of missing out on the best treasures, but on the other hand, they were afraid of losing their lives by choosing a difficult path.
However, Lin An didn’t have a problem figuring out the best path. The success rate system’s virtual screen had already marked out the success rate of clearing each channel, and the chances of obtaining the treasures:
[The success rate of clearing channel one is 0%, and the success rate of obtaining a treasure is also 0%.]
[The success rate of clearing channel two is 0%, and the success rate of obtaining a treasure is also 0%.]
[The success rate of clearing the third channel is 50%, and the success rate of obtaining treasures is 50%.]
…
[The success rate of clearing the tenth channel is 0%, and the success rate of obtaining treasures is also 0%.]
To Lin An’s astonishment, nine out of the ten paths were dead ends. No wonder only one in ten challengers successfully survived the journey to the Dragon God Illusionary Realm. If they were not careful, they would all be eliminated in the first stage.
At the same time, a sinister thought crossed Lin An’s mind.
If he concealed the correct path from the purple-robed disciples, they would die in the Dragon God Illusionary Realm, and he would not have to worry about being hunted down for revenge.
However, just as Lin An was thinking about the plan, he realized that everyone was looking at him, and he was shocked.
Had he accidentally uttered the thoughts that had been running through his mind? Why were the cultivators all looking at him?
“Why are you all looking at me?”
Lin An’s voice was a little weak.
Fortunately, none of the disciples suspected Lin An’s hidden intentions.
Instead, one cultivator took a step forward and asked, “How did Brother Lin see through the golden snake secret technique?”
“Huh?” Lin An didn’t think that they would be interested in his earlier victory, and he replied casually, “It was just based on feelings.”
Lin An naturally wouldn’t tell them the truth, but he also felt that his statement had been too perfunctory. Would he have to make up a more believable lie?
Unexpectedly, the cultivator immediately nodded and said, “Brother Lin’s intuition is outstanding. Please choose the path you want to take. The four of us from the mystic realm will go with you. We believe in you.”
Lin An was stunned, and he glanced around the hall at the other cultivators. Sure enough, everyone looked at Lin An with trust in their eyes.
It made sense. Lin An was the only disciple who had successfully figured out the golden snake secret technique.
The cultivators felt that even if Lin An had just been lucky; it was better to depend on his lucky charm than on their own blind guesses.
Lin An looked at the purple-clothed disciples as they stood silently at the side. Saint Zi Yan didn’t say anything, but judging from their posture, they were also willing to follow Lin An.
“Didn’t Saint Zi Yan promise to kill me? Don’t tell me that she’s also going to follow her enemy?”
Saint Zi Yan tilted her head and said indifferently, “I’m just tired from walking. I want to rest for a while, so you guys can leave first.”
Her lie was too lame. Saint Zi Yan’s body was at the peak of the golden core stage. She wouldn’t get tired easily even if she walked for ten days and ten nights. How could she be tired after only walking a short distance from the camp?
Lin An didn’t want to argue with her. He reluctantly took the lead and walked towards the third passage.
As soon as he walked in, he turned around and saw that Saint Zi Yan and the purple-clothed disciples had immediately followed him.
Lin An couldn’t help but curse in his heart. Saint Zi Yan really knew how to bend and stretch. The previous day, she had made a big fuss and declared her intentions to kill him.
However, she was now his ‘follower’ even though he knew it was for her own profit.
As they walked down the third passage, the essence of the tunnel, which was an illusion, began to manifest.
Suddenly, the surrounding illusion changed as everyone advanced.
