An Understated Dominance Chapter 2690
A deep, muffled rumble echoed from the direction of the crevices they'd just passed. The ground trembled slightly, sending fragments of stone down."What is going on?" the guard captain cried out, his voice tinged with alarm as he stared toward the entrance.The entrance, which had allowed only one person to pass at a time, was now completely blocked. An enormous boulder had appeared there at some point, and no one had noticed it. It was as if an invisible giant hand had sealed off their escape route from the outside."Damn it! Our way back is cut off."One guard rushed forward and shoved against the massive stone with all his strength, only to find it immovable. It was heavier than he could have ever imagined.Panic spread as the others rushed forward, hacking at it with swords and axes. They managed only a few white scratches on the boulder's surface. It didn't look like any ordinary rock and seemed to be bound by some kind of restriction seal."It's a formation! We're trapped
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2689
As soon as Mirage escaped, the last remnants of the unnatural energy fluctuation in the valley had finally subsided.The survivors slowly opened their eyes and removed their hands from their ears. They looked at the real yet desolate scenery around them. Recalling everything they had just been through, everyone felt as if they were in another world.Several injured guards collapsed to the ground. They gasped for breath, and their faces were etched with lingering fear.Grace walked up to Dustin. Seeing his somewhat pale complexion, she asked with concern, "Are you alright?"Shaking his head, he looked toward the direction Mirage had fled. "I'm fine. Just drained from the mental battle," he replied. "Her core was damaged, so she probably won't dare show herself again anytime soon."Judith pressed a hand to her chest, still shaken. "That was terrifying. Those illusions were practically impossible to fight. If Mr. Rhys hadn't figured out her weakness, none of us would have made it."

"Judith, it's me! Snap out of it!" Grace shouted.Every instinct told her to shove away the figure she saw as her sworn enemy, but she forced herself to stay put and gripped Judith's wrist tighter.With her advanced cultivation and iron-willed focus, she managed to hold on to a sliver of clarity. Even so, she still reeled from the visions clawing at her mind.Dustin watched the group descend into chaos and frowned. Mirage's illusions were more insidious than he'd imagined. Besides creating large-scale environmental illusions, she also targeted every person's mind and conjured visions born from their own fears and desires. There was no defending against an enemy that attacked from within. If this continued, they would kill each other without their enemy lifting a finger.He unleashed another wave of divine sense, but it was far less effective this time. Her illusions had corrupted their minds, and a raw blast of his power wasn't enough to purge them."Close your eyes. Cover your

The illusion formation had been forcibly broken, though not completely destroyed. The guards, who had been lost in the illusion, gradually snapped back to reality. When they took in their actual surroundings and their fallen comrades lying in pools of blood, their faces went pale with horror."That illusion formation was terrifyingly real… It could so vividly reflect the desires of the human heart," Grace said, her voice trembling slightly. Her gratitude towards Dustin deepened.His sharp gaze darted toward the far end of the valley, where the only real spring shimmered in the distance. The air above it twisted and warped until a faint figure slowly took shape.It solidified into a woman of otherworldly, almost unsettling beauty. Dressed in rainbow robes, her body was an illusory form of coalescing light and fog.She hovered barefoot above the spring, surrounded by a haze of seductive energy that tugged at the mind. Her eyes were deep and bottomless, reflecting a thousand images

"Hmm?"Grace whipped around, staring at Dustin with confusion written across her face.He wasn't admiring the breathtaking view like the others. His sharp eyes swept across the valley like a predator searching for weakness, cold and penetrating."Don't believe everything you see," he said. "While the spiritual energy here is abundant, it feels scattered and lacks a solid foundation. The music is too flawless to be natural. And the air, the flowers, and the mist… Don't they feel too artificial, as if they only exist to trick your senses?"His words made Grace and a few guards with higher cultivation levels focus their senses. Indeed, they noticed something was amiss.After lingering in the air, the floral fragrance carried a cloying sweetness that faintly clouded the mind. The sound of flowing water maintained an impossibly perfect rhythm, lacking the natural variation of a real stream. Even the drifting mist and clouds seemed to move in a fixed, patterned way."It's an illusory f

"Stay focused and take them down!" Grace shouted. Her dagger gleamed with a cold light, and a stream of sword aura slashed at a charging gray shadow. The attack made the wraith waver and thin out, its form growing fainter. It let out a piercing shriek but didn't vanish. Instead, it surged forward with renewed fury.The other guards weren't faring any better. Their sword aura proved pathetically ineffective against these mist-wraiths. It took multiple strikes to break apart a single one.However, the wraith's attacks were deadly. They could easily penetrate the guards' protective armor energy. The moment one made contact, a deep, soul-chilling cold set in, and the victim's life essence began to drain away at an alarming rate.One guard's attention slipped for just a second. A wraith grazed his arm, and his limb instantly turned pale gray and shriveled, as if every bit of moisture and vitality had been sucked dry. He groaned in pain and staggered backward, face pale as death."We c
