As they chatted with each other, they all sat cross-legged on the futon. After waiting for a while, the futon was enveloped by multicolored light again. Then, everyone disappeared.

After his vision recovered, Shen Ping, the Immortal Venerables, his master, Lin Yu, and the others stood on a piece of yellow sand. Looking around, there were sand dunes. The air was dry and hot, and there was no end in sight.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

Before they could investigate carefully, a large number of gerbil-like creatures appeared from the sand dune and surged over from all directions. These gerbils were not strong. With the strength of Shen Ping and the Immortal Venerables, they could easily deal with them. Just as they finished dealing with them, another group came, and their auras were clearly stronger.

Four waves were eliminated in a row. Gerbil’s strength had already reached the Body Integration realm.

“Something’s wrong.”

“These creatures are endless. They’re completely consuming our magic power.”

“It’s very likely an array. Immortal Venerable Yao, you’re proficient in arrays. Can you tell what array this is?”

The Immortal Venerables spoke one after another. Immortal Venerable Yao frowned, “If it was an array formation, I would have discovered it the moment we entered, but there are no traces of an array formation around.”

Shen Ping could not help but open his Pupil of Sea Beast to check. He realized that a large number of sand mice did not have any energy aura at all. There was no yellow sand either. There was only one source of energy. “Senior Yao, could it be an illusion array?”

Immortal Venerable Yao was stunned. “An illusion array can indeed affect you silently, and it’s extremely difficult to detect. Since this illusion array can affect us Immortal Venerables, it will affect you juniors even more. Even a simple illusion attack will cause your divine sense to collapse.”

Immortal Venerable Qi reminded, “Fellow Daoist Yao, this is a palace world. If it’s an illusion array, it should be targeted at different strengths.”

Immortal Venerable Yao understood and immediately looked at Shen Ping. “Is there any Phantom Heart Fluid, Purple Flower Root in your storage treasure?”

“Yes.”

These materials were considered high-grade resources. He basically had a backup in his inventory and immediately took out the materials.

Immortal Venerable Yao used the materials to quickly refine pills that could withstand illusion arrays. After consuming them, the yellow sand environment in front of them immediately disappeared, revealing a huge spider-like creature. Seeing that its illusion array had been broken, it opened its bloody mouth and spat out a large amount of spider silk.

The spider silk was extremely fast. Everyone, including Shen Ping, found it difficult to dodge. Moreover, they could not cut through the spider silk with the Dharma treasures in their hands.

“Use fire-elemental magical equipment!” Immortal Venerable Yao reminded them.

Shen Ping hurriedly took out a high-grade fire-element beast spirit treasure and easily cut off the spider silk. Then, he helped the other Immortal Venerables escape and rushed towards the spider. This spider was not strong to begin with and was quickly dealt with by Shen Ping.

However, the spider did not turn into a ball of light like the golden-purple worms from before. His expression changed slightly. He put away the spider creature and prepared to use Soul Parasite. This spider had such a powerful illusion array ability. If it turned into his clone through Soul Parasite, he would have another powerful method.

The other Immortal Venerables did not say anything when they saw Shen Ping put away the spider corpse.

“Here’s a jade plate and a map.” Lian Xuejin made a discovery not far away. Immortal Venerable Nanji, Immortal Venerable Yao, and the others checked and saw that the jade plate was not special, but since it appeared with the road map, it should be useful. After putting it away, they continued along the road map.

They reached the second target point. The group encountered the spiders again. With the medicinal pills refined by Immortal Venerable Yao, they were not too affected. Every spider had a jade plate beside them. Until the eighth target point, they did not see the jade plate or the road map after killing the spiders, nor did a door appear like before.

Shen Ping subconsciously used the Pupil of Sea Beast to check. When he saw it, he was immediately shocked. He saw that the Immortal Venerable Nanji, Immortal Venerable Yao, and the others around him were actually all the energy auras of golden-purple insects.

Puff, puff, puff!

After using the Primordial Chaos Spear to deal with these insects, he used the talent of the Pupil of Sea Beast to lock onto the largest energy source.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

Before he got close, golden spider silk shot from all directions. He kept teleporting and barely dodged the entanglement of the spider silk. He could use the fire attribute beast spirit treasure to attack the spider silk, but he could not cut it off as easily as before.

He thought of the Beast Scripture. He immediately entered the Beast Spirit State, and scales appeared on the surface of his body. Then, he used the power of the second form of the Primordial Chaos Spear, but it was still difficult to cut through the spider silk. “What should I do?!”

In a moment of desperation, he suddenly remembered that the Beast Spirits had cinto contact with the essence fluctuation of the Great Dao. Therefore, he hurriedly activated that fluctuation and attached it to the Primordial Chaos Spear. Although his comprehension of the fluctuation was only superficial, his superficial knowledge could easily destroy the golden spider silk.

Then, he attacked the energy source.

Pfft!

With just a few attacks, he easily dealt with the source. As the illusion array disappeared, Shen Pingping looked and discovered that it was actually a golden-purple spider-like creature. The golden-purple insects beside the other Immortal Venerables dissipated.

“Could it be that this golden-purple spider can simultaneously use illusion and imitation abilities?” While he was shocked, his eyes revealed joy. This corpse was much stronger than the spider from before, so he immediately put it away.

When the other Immortal Venerables saw that the people beside them had disappeared, they cback to their senses and realized that they had been pulled into the illusion array again.

“What a powerful illusion array.” Immortal Venerable Yao couldn’t help but say, “Shen Ping, if you hadn’t dealt with the source, I’m afraid all of us would have been eliminated.”

Shen Ping hurriedly shook his head and said, “Senior Yao, I was just lucky to discover it. Moreover, even if I don’t get rid of this golden-purple spider creature, as tpasses, all the seniors will sense it.”

He was right. With the vigilance of the Immortal Venerables and the teleportation from the previous two levels to the eighth target point, they would definitely realize that something was wrong. Of course, whether they could not be eliminated depended on their luck.

Not far from the golden-purple spider was a ball of light. Inside the ball of light were three jade plates and 20 beast blood’s essences. After putting away these things, a purple door appeared in front of them.

They entered the door. Layers of light patterns immediately appeared on the surface of the ten jade plates. These light patterns gathered to form a road map.

“If I’m not wrong, the target marked on the road map this tshould be the location of the secret technique.” Immortal Venerable Nanji said slowly.

The expressions of the others changed slightly.

Immortal Venerable Qj smiled faintly and said, “If it’s really a secret technique, it should be given to Shen Ping first. Without Shen Ping, I’m afraid we won’t be able to pass the previous level at all. Moreover, the possibility of being eliminated is extremely high.”

Immortal Venerable Bing shook her head, “Although that’s the case, the 52 secret techniques are all Great Dao secret techniques and are extremely precious. Moreover, Immortal Venerable Yao contributed a lot to the previous level. Without her pills, how can we leave the illusion array?!”

Shen Ping’s expression was calm, but he was speechless in his heart. They had yet to see the secret technique, but they had already begun to discuss the ownership of the secret technique. As expected, when there were more people, there were more thoughts and it was easy to have differences. This was also the reason why he rarely took risks to explore in his cultivation. After all, no matter how good it was to befriend friends, there would be differences in the face of benefits. They might even kill each other.

Immortal Venerable Yu glanced at Immortal Venerable Nanji and the others and said, “Everyone, isn’t it too early to discuss the secret technique? I think we should get the secret technique first before talking about anything else.”

“Fellow Daoist Yu is right.”

“I don’t know what kind of test this level is. Although our magic power has recovered to the Void Refinement Realm, we still can’t take out the immortal artifact and other items. When we encounter difficulties, we still have to rely on Shen Ping.” Immortal Venerable Nanji said meaningfully.

Immortal Venerable Yao smiled and said, “Indeed, no matter what the situation is, Shen Ping should obtain a secret technique.”

Lian Xuejin and Lin Yu were weak and didn’t have the right to speak at all. However, the group didn’t continue when they spoke up to here and rushed towards the road map.

With Shen Ping’s help, the human Beast Spirit geniuses were not eliminated in the third level. However, it was different for the other races. Just the yellow sand alone had trapped many Beast Spirit geniuses of the races. Only the top too geniuses’ illusion array would gradually weaken as tpassed. Therefore, the number of Beast Spirit geniuses eliminated in the third level increased again..
