With a muffled sound, Bai Qianjiao's palm fell on Lin Ji's chest.
The terrifying spiritual energy that almost distorted everything around it suddenly erupted, but it did not cause the terrifying momentum as imagined.
Lin Ji's figure flew out upside down, but that was all.
"How could...?" Bai Qianjiao's face glowed with disbelief for the first time, and the matter was finally beyond her control.
She looked around and saw a forest scene like mountains and flowing water.
Looking up, a majestic mountain peak is standing nearby. Looking up again, the bright sun is flickering in the clouds and mist, as if it is not as high as the mountain.
Looking to the other side, a large river was roaring towards the distance with turbulent waves.
"Illusion?"
Bai Qianjiao thought, and the shadow of the avenue behind her became more and more solid. With a casual move, the mountain peaks in the distance were impacted, and the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked.
A huge boulder rolled down from a high place and landed next to Bai Qianjiao.
She raised her hand to catch it, and the moment the boulder collided with her palm, the boulders scattered in all directions.
"it is true...?"
Bai Qianjiao hesitated.
"If it is an illusion, how can it be so realistic? Can it be hidden from me?"
"But if it's true...why? Just him?"
Bai Qianjiao looked up, and Lin Ji on the other side was sitting on the ground, leaning against the big tree behind her, panting continuously.
His chest, which had finally recovered a little, was a little more injured.
Seeing this scene, Bai Qianjiao frowned slightly.
If it hadn't been for this sudden change, the blow just now would have killed him.
"The Way of Desire is too unbelievable. Did fellow Taoist Master Lin's perception slow down?" Lin Ji's breathing gradually became calmer, but he did not stand up and remained seated.
He held a fan in his hand and seemed to feel hot, so he kept fanning himself.
"Lin wanted to run away because of fear, but despaired when he found that he couldn't escape... If his thoughts were normal, he would always find ways to resist, but at that time, he was filled with despair and could only let his fellow Taoist do it."
Lin Ji looked at the colorful clouds behind Bai Qianjiao. That was the manifestation of the way of desire, and it was also the culprit that almost killed him just now.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and finally stood up slowly.
"If Taoist fellow Taoist hadn't been too murderous, Lin might have lost his life in ignorance."
"You mean, my murderous intention awakened you?" Bai Qianjiao was surprised, "If it weren't for this weird illusion, would you still be alive at this time?"
She was not convinced.
If Lin Ji hadn't had the means to withstand her full strength, even if Lin Ji woke up at the last moment, he would definitely have died.
Most of the spiritual energy condensed in her palms at the last moment was isolated by this illusion.
It was as if the world had suddenly changed. She was still her, Lin Ji was still Lin Ji, but everything else was different.
"That's true." Lin Ji didn't deny it.
Bai Qianjiao sighed softly.
Manifesting the shadow of the avenue is never easy.
Even monks who have entered the late stages of Taoism have to fight tooth and nail to use such methods.
She originally thought that Lin Ji was only in the early stage of Taoism. With her full strength, Lin Jijue couldn't resist for too long, so she just had to kill him with thunderous means.
Bai Qianjiao's eyes fell on the fan in Lin Ji's hand.
Along with Lin Ji's slow swaying, the fan gradually turned into white light and began to disappear.
"Is this the origin of this illusion?"
"Taoist artifact, the Jiangshan Fan." Lin Ji nodded, "It was only after Lin entered Taoism that he realized that there really was a Jiangshan in this fan."
Bai Qianjiao became increasingly dissatisfied.
"Only the vast Jiuzhou can be called a country. How about your three-thirds of an acre of land? You can see the edge at a glance..."
Lin Ji's expression froze, feeling baffled.
What is this woman fighting about?
But he also didn't want to be at a disadvantage for no reason, and he couldn't beat him again and again. He couldn't win even in a verbal dispute.
"There are rivers and mountains, so why aren't there mountains and rivers?"
"That's obviously a river!" Bai Qianjiao pointed to the side.
"It's Jiang."
"It's the river!"
"Then it's called Shanhe Fan!"
"You...!" Bai Qianjiao was speechless, and her originally pale face turned red with a hint of depression.
At this moment, the illusion of mountains and rivers around him collapsed.
Lin Ji groaned and felt a splitting headache.
He was not surprised. It has never been a simple matter to activate a Taoist weapon, let alone the mountains and rivers... Bah! There is a universe in the Jiangshan Fan, which is a bit more tyrannical than the Qingzhi Sword.
And just as everything around him was once again the moonlit night sky, a sense of crisis suddenly emerged in Lin Ji's mind.
Without any hesitation, he took the next step, but his figure already appeared hundreds of meters away.
At the same time, a white silk ribbon happened to pass by where he was just now, mixed with the strong wind, and floated into the distance.
"Oh, divine foot power?"
Bai Qianjiao snorted coldly, and the shadow of the avenue behind her had dispersed. At this time, only the countless white silk threads turned into white skirts were left around her, fluttering in the wind.
"So what about Taoist weapons? It's not like my aunt doesn't have any!"
After her words fell, the white silk around her continued to spread to all directions, almost covering the sky and the sun, and even blocked most of the moonlight in the sky.
Endless shadows shrouded the town of Wucha below.
"What? You want to keep Lin with these white cloths?" Lin Ji sneered.
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
Bai Qianjiao's full-strength method has been resisted by him. Even though it was a bit tricky, he managed to escape in the end.
At this time, after being eroded by the way of desire one after another, he was not as easy to fall into as before.
He had already made up his mind to run away if he couldn't fight.
His mind was filled with thoughts of oiling his soles. No matter how influenced by the way of desire, it would only make him escape faster.
"If you can run, can Wucha Town run?" Bai Qianjiao asked with a chuckle.
One word made it difficult for Lin Ji to move.
"Why involve innocent people in your matter?" Lin Ji frowned.
Bai Qianjiao turned a deaf ear.
"I can't kill you because I'm not strong enough. I can't do anything about it, and I won't implicate anyone else. Let's just let this go. But if you dare to run away, no one in Wucha Town will survive."
"Lin Ji, you said these people died because of you. Will it hinder your practice of karma?"
Lin Ji's face was as sinking as water.
"There will be obstacles."
"Then...don't run away?"
Lin Ji shook his head slightly and took out the green sword again.
"No more running away."
After the words fell, the shadow of Yin Yang Fish Avenue appeared again behind Lin Ji.
His eyes turned into those of a yin and yang child again, and he raised his hand as usual and shook Bai Qianjiao's hand in the air.
But when he held his hand, Bai Qianjiao's expression suddenly changed.
The inexplicable feeling of emptiness before came again, and this time it was a hundred times more intense than the last time!
"You're going to die if you activate the avenue to manifest like this?!" Bai Qianjiao exclaimed.
