    Everyone immediately realized one thing, that this room was definitely not as simple as it looked!


    John and Chuan Ye''s gazesnded on the ck box at the same time, their expressions somewhat ecstatic!


    They both had an intuition that the contents of the box were far from ordinary!


    John''s eyes suddenly emitted a zing light as he threw another powerful punch at Chuan Ye!


    Chuan Ye, however, swiftly dodged John''s heavy punch and drew his samurai sword, shing horizontally at John''s chest!


    The de surged with a thick True Essence Energy, like a reaper''s tool for harvesting lives...


    Seeing their leaders fighting, the rest of the people also started to brawl, and the scene instantly plunged into chaos!


    Just then, unnoticed by anyone, the fallen statue''s mouth opened slightly, expelling a faint trail of white breath, colorless and odorless!


    All of a sudden, the two groups, who were fighting fiercely, started to act insane.


    Some danced wildly, some swung their weapons haphazardly, some threw punches without caring if they were hitting an enemy or an ally!


    "Not good, it''s an Illusion Technique, let''s get out of here!"


    Su Chen''s body jerked, and he quickly shouted.


    But after running a few steps, he realized no one was following him. He turned back to see that Joanna and the others, as well as Guan Zhihui and his group, had also started to act abnormal!


    Clearly, they had been affected by the illusion too!


    Su Chen''s body trembled, knowing the situation was extremely dangerous. He quickly moved, knocking out the people from Yi Country and Guan Zhihui''s group with a palm each!


    Just as Su Chen was about to start throwing the people out one by one, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness in his head!


    The scene before his eyes changed abruptly, turning into a grand mansion courtyard!


    "Little Tian, don''t run too fast!"


    In the courtyard, a woman was chasing a three or four-year-old boy.


    The sunlight that day was very nice, warm on the skin.


    "Mommy,e chase me,e on, chase me!"


    The little boy looked back at the woman,ughing "giggly" as he ran, his joyfulness boundless!


    Meanwhile, on a recliner to the side, a man in his thirties with an extraordinary demeanor held a book in his hand, watching this scene with a knowing smile!


    Suddenly, the scene changed again, this time to a study room.


    "Little Tian,e here, Grandpa has something tasty for you."


    An old man said with a smile to a little face peeking shyly at the doorway.


    "What''s tasty?"


    The little boy walked in and asked in his tender voice.


    "Of course, it''s your favorite maltose candy!"


    The old man produced a square little box from behind him, as if by magic.


    "Give it to me! Grandpa, give it to me now!"


    The little boy immediately extended his chubby little hands, calling out eagerly.


    "Then recite the ''Disciple''s Rules'' for Grandpa to hear first. After you''re done, Grandpa will give them to you."


    The old man lifted his hand just out of the boy''s reach.


    "Disciple''s Rules, the sage''s teachings; first be filial and fraternal, then be cautious and trustworthy; spread love for all and get close to benevolent people; if there is extra strength, then pursue learning..."


    The little boy''s immature voice filled the study...


    At that moment, the scene suddenly shed again, this time to a bedroom.


    "Mommy, Grandpa is gone, Daddy is already gone, I don''t want you to go too!"


    The little boy knelt by the bed, sobbing uncontrobly!


    "Little Tian, you''re a little man. Even if Mommy isn''t here anymore, you shouldn''t cry. You have to be strong!"


    On the bed, a woman, her voice fading, was holding the little boy''s hand as she spoke.


    "No, no, I don''t want that, Mommy, you''ll get better!"


    ```


    "Xiao Tian, Mama loves you, but Mama can''t walk the path of life with you anymore. You must learn to protect yourself..."


    Before she could finish her sentence, the woman''s hand had already fallen limply...


    The only sound left in the room was the wailing cries of the little boy...


    "No, it''s not right. Grandpa, Father, and Mother are all gone; this is an Illusory Realm!"


    Su Chen suddenly jolted awake, fiercely shaking his head, and the scene before him vanished, reced only by the bloodthirsty Ind Country and America people!


    "What a powerful Illusory Realm!"


    Su Chen thought with residual fear. The Illusory Realm had somehow drawn out fragments from the deepest recesses of his memories!


    Had his resolve not been strong enough, and had a sliver of rity not remained in his mind, he might have be hopelessly ensnared!


    Just then, he suddenly discovered that Prince John was on top of Joanna, tearing at her clothes, and her upper garment was already ripped to shreds, revealing her underwear!


    As he prepared to continue tearing Joanna''s underwear, Su Chen abruptlyshed out with a kick, sending Prince John flying!


    "Bang!"


    His body mmed against a wall like a cannonball, creating a thunderous noise.


    To Su Chen''s surprise, this loud noise acted like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, abruptly waking them up!


    It was understandable, really, because many who were stuck in the Illusory Realm would already have begun to feel its effects waning over time.


    At that moment, all it took was a certain external stimulus to snap them out of it.


    Such stimuli could vary, like the remaining rity in Su Chen''s mind or the loud noise just now.


    Of course, without such a stimulus, they might have remained trapped until death!


    Once they awoke, the people from America and the Ind Country were all momentarily stunned!


    What on earth had just happened? How did ite to this?


    Looking down, they found almost ten corpses lying around them, some from the Ind Country and some from America.


    Apart from Chuan Ye, there were only two left from the Ind Country, and the situation for America was not much better, with only three remaining!


    By then, Prince John had alsoe to his senses, but he felt like several bones in his body were broken!


    Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he struggled to stand up, his gaze filled with hatred towards Su Chen!


    Su Chen, seemingly oblivious to his ring, calmly spoke to Chuan Ye:


    "Hand over the treasure box!"


    "Hand it to you? On what basis?"


    "I can spare your life," Su Chen said lightly.


    He no longer wanted to wait, as the ce was too strange; he just wanted to get the treasure box and leave quickly!


    "Spare my life?"


    Chuan Ye broke into loudughter:


    "Have you forgotten? In our earlier fight, you were defeated by me!"


    "Chuan Ye, stop wasting words with him. Let''s get rid of this Huaxia person first, and we can talk about the treasure boxter!" John said to Chuan Ye.


    "Alright!"


    As soon as he finished speaking, the people from the Ind Country and America charged forward with threatening momentum!


    Each of their Cultivation levels was not weak, with the lowest being equivalent to Qi Refinement Level Seven!


    However, Su Chen did not take them seriously. He slowly drew out his dagger, holding it in his hand and looking at them coldly!


    Suddenly, his figure shed, charging towards them!


    The cold light of the dagger gleamed under the illumination of the Luminous Pearl, each sh bringing a mist of blood spraying forth!


    In about a minute, only Chuan Ye remained standing in the area!


    "Give it to me."


    Su Chen extended his hand and said calmly...
