Chapter 2039 Illusory reality, an all-purpose ability?

　　After the powerful impact, a large number of the beast cultivators in the cabins could not resist and ended up falling unconscious.

　　Their companions hurriedly acted and began using various means to wake them up.

　　There were some who fed their friends medicinal liquid, some who used healing techniques, and some who called out to their companions affectionately. However, Song Shuhang saw the most used and straightforward method was violently slapping them in the face.

　　After all, the beast cultivators who could reach the golden moon all had excellent physiques and had passed the assessment of the two ape kings.

　　So with that in mind, their companions simply slapped them mercilessly.

　　Loud slaps echoed throughout the area. Due to the rhythm, it felt as if they were at the concert of a popular singer, and the audience was applauding enthusiastically. “Where’s Senior White?” asked Song Shuhang, his legs weak. On this occasion, his wooden body had cooperated with his head, starting to quiver.

　　Sister White Dragon’s small claw pointed in a certain direction and replied, “He’s over there, waving at us.”

　　Song Shuhang looked in the direction Sister White Dragon had pointed.

　　The VIP cabin was open, and Senior White’s upper body was by the cabin window, waving at Song Shuhang-it was apparent that Senior White was in a great mood.

　　“Let’s go meet up with Senior White.” Song Shuhang propped himself up slowly.

　　The giant tree’s cabin then opened.

　　Sister White Dragon stretched out her claws, lifted Song Shuhang and the other half of Sage White’s body, and flew out of the cabin.

　　Afterward, Sage White’s lower half ran in the direction of the VIP cabin on its own.

　　The other half of Senior White flew out of the cabin and seamlessly reunited with his missing part.

　　“So this is the trial area of Garre Holy Mountain…” said Senior White. He then crouched down, stretched out his hand, and poked lightly at the ground.

　　The ground was soft, and some areas were outright sandy.

　　Song Shuhang imitated Senior White and also poked at the ground. When his finger touched the ground, it left behind a small hole. Moreover, the hole kept getting deeper and deeper.

　　After the 66 holy apes were transformed into steel holy apes, Song Shuhang’s body was greatly strengthened.

　　For this reason, he had trouble controlling his strength.

　　Song Shuhang said, “The (Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique) was strengthened more than I thought after the trial of the ape kings.”

　　He shook his hand, poked at the ground again, and began to adjust his strength.

　　This was not the first time he had experienced a sudden increase in the strength of his physical body. In other words, he was kind of used to it.

　　At this moment, the transplanted strand of Pavilion Master Chu’s hair said, “Do you also get a familiar feeling from this place?”

　　Song Shuhang nodded and replied, “I don’t know why, but as soon as we reached the golden moon, I felt as if I had returned home, the place where I belong.”

　　Pavilion Master Chu replied, “No, what I meant is that this place is very similar to my Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion.”

　　we.

　　The black Scarlet Heaven Sword exclaimed, “The Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion is Fellow Daoist Chu’s home. Song Shuhang felt like this place was his home. Also, back when we were approaching Garre Holy Mountain, Sage White said that the place gave him a sense of familiarity and made him recall his hometown. Perhaps, this golden moon can remind people of the warm feeling of home!”

　　Sister White Dragon said, “No… Everything here is very similar to an illusory reality. I think that is what Fellow Daoist Chu was trying to hint at.”

　　It was not just a patch of land, but the entire golden moon that was like an illusory reality.

　　This was not just some city, but an entire planet!

　　It was already a miracle that Pavilion Master Chu had been able to maintain the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion. And to do that, she ended up having to spend most of her time in a state of sleep.

　　And this golden moon was far larger than the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion.

　　Moreover, it had not only lasted for a day or two. The existence of the Beast Realm’s Garre Holy Mountain and the holy mountain’s trial could be traced back all the way to the ancient era.

　　An era before the emergence of the Scholarly Sage and the Ancient Heavenly City.

　　Song Shuhang suddenly remembered something and asked, “Sister White Dragon, I remember that the structure of the Ancient Heavenly City is also related to an illusory reality, right?”

　　Sister White Dragon nodded. “Yes, the structure of the Ancient Heavenly City is indeed related to an illusory reality. It could be said to be an enhanced version of Fellow Daoist Chu’s Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion. It was precisely because of its special structure that the members of the Heavenly City could integrate their own path into the city.”

　　Song Shuhang pondered for a moment and said, “Why do I feel like a Venerable’s illusory reality ability is especially heaven-defying?”

　　“Indeed.” The black Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “In my memory, Scarlet Heaven also expressed several times how wondrous an illusory reality was.”

　　Senior White’s eyes lit up. “If this golden moon really is an evolution of an illusory reality, then it should have a core. Let’s find it!”

　　Song Shuhang asked, “How are we supposed to find it?”

　　The black Scarlet Heaven Sword suggested, “How about we dig a hole? If it’s a core, then perhaps it’s at the core of this moon.”

　　Song Shuhang said, “But it could also be somewhere on the golden moon. I think it’s better to have Senior White use the branch method to locate it.”

　　“Well, then let’s go with that.” Senior White nodded. He reached out and broke a branch off of Song Shuhang’s body and threw it into the sky.

　　“Boom-“

　　Suddenly, a beam of light came and destroyed the branch.

　　Song Shuhang’s eyes widened.

　　Who is it? How dare you break my little branch?!

　　Even if that little branch that had been broken off of his body, it was still a part of his body!

　　This beam of light that had come out of nowhere was the prelude to the trial.

　　In the sky, hideous monsters emerged from the shadows.

　　They had innate skills that worked like spatial abilities. They could create a shadow in the void and travel freely in that shadow.

　　Senior White pinched his chin and wondered, “Is this also part of the trial?”

　　In the distance, a three-eyed monster let out a strange laugh. It was the one that had destroyed Song Shuhang’s little branch.

　　As it laughed and laughed, it started coughing violently, as if it had choked on its own saliva.

　　The three-eyed monster slammed its fist into its chest, but the more it hammered, the harder it choked.

　　After choking for a while, it foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, its body convulsing repeatedly.

　　Song Shuhang: “…” Sister White Dragon: “…” The black Scarlet Heaven Sword: “…”

　　It was the first time they had seen an enemy who laughed so hard that they ended up choking and falling to the ground.

　　At the same time, those beast cultivators who climbed out of the cabins of the giant tree were already familiar with engaging in close-quarters combat with these monsters. Was this part of the trial as well?

　　“I see,” said Song Shuhang. The 66 steel holy apes above his head roared as he stepped forward and punched the monster that was choking and foaming at the mouth.

　　“Wait, that punch didn’t feel right.” Song Shuhang quickly jumped back. He felt as if he had hit a balloon.

　　Is it a fake monster?

　　While he was in thought, the three-eyed monster suddenly disintegrated.

　　Then, a broken rune landed on Song Shuhang’s fist.

　　From the rune, there were a lot of memories related to the (Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique) that poured out…
