Qin Ming selected over ten pieces of rotten wood that had already sprouted Bewitching Mushrooms.
Subsequently.
Based on past experience, he first used the [Ripening]Entry to ripen all of these Mist Illusion Mushrooms. After the Mist Illusion Mushrooms matured, many Illusion Mushroom Spirit Seeds were born.
Accompanied by Qin Ming's Force-Ripening, a continuous stream of pink mist began to permeate the Back Mountain of Moon Gazing Island.
The pink mist gathered more and more, beginning to soar straight into the Horizon.
Wu Jiang raised his head, gazing at these strange pink mists. His brows furrowed into a deep frown, and he felt a faint sense of worry in his heart. He didn't know what Fellow Daoist Qin was doing to create such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon. Qin Ming worked day and night without stopping, constantly consuming the [Ripening]Entries in his hand, as well as the five [Time-Space Leaf]Entries, busily Force-Ripening the Mist Illusion Mushrooms.
Subsequently.
Qin Ming felt that the time was right and used the [Spirit Plant Symbiosis]Entry.
In an instant.
He only felt that he had established an inexplicable connection with the pink mist released by the Mist Illusion Mushrooms.
And he could freely command and direct these pink mists.
In the following days.
The Wu Clan members were astonished to discover that on the Main Peak Back Mountain of Moon Gazing Island, a large plume of pink smoke, as if emitted from a chimney, shot straight into the Sky Above.
After these mists reached the Sky Above Moon Gazing Island, they unfurled like a giant umbrella, spreading in all directions, covering the Ten li radius of Moon Gazing Island.
A month later.
The concentration of the pink mist accumulated to an extremely terrifying degree. Just a glance seemed as if it could devour one's soul.
Although Wu Jiang was afraid in his heart, he also dared not disturb Qin Ming. He could only wait for him to come out of seclusion before asking what exactly was going on.
As time passed, the pink mist became increasingly dense, forming a sky-blocking and earth-covering spectacle.
"A Mist Illusion Realm comparable to a Third-Order Illusion Formation, finally deployed!" Qin Ming raised his head and looked at the Sky Above, wiping the fine sweat from his forehead.
Immediately, he raised his hand and pointed, and countless Black Spirit Seeds flew out from his hand, concealing themselves within these pink mists.
These were Spirit Seeds that Qin Ming had used the Thorn Technique on. Once touched, they would trigger a Thorns Trap.
In this way, combined with the Mist Illusion Realm, it formed an effect comparable to a Tier 3 Compound Grand Formation.
If any ignorant Cultivator were to blunder into the mist, Qin Ming could go out and collect Blood Beads.
He then consumed the remaining [Spirit Plant Symbiosis]Entries and crafted several wooden Tokens.
This special Token could freely control the opening and closing of the Mist Illusion Realm.
Subsequently.
Qin Ming summoned Wu Jiang over.
When Wu Jiang saw Qin Ming, he already had a bellyful of questions to ask.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, these mists above Spirit Island, this is…"
Qin Ming smiled slightly. Even if the other party didn't ask, he was going to instruct him. "Fellow Daoist Wu, this mist covering the entire Moon Gazing Island is an Illusionary Realm comparable to a Tier 3 Great Formation."
"With this Defense, even if the Seventy-Two Island Scattered Alliance and the Zhao Family were to fight to the heavens, they would no longer be able to affect our Moon Gazing Island."
"You must remember, these pink mists are no small matter. Tell your Clan Members to absolutely not approach the vicinity of the mists."
"This Token can control the Mist Illusion Realm. You can use it to freely enter and exit Moon Gazing Island."
After Qin Ming finished explaining, he handed a Token to Wu Jiang and gave him a meaningful glance of implication.
Wu Jiang's heart was thrown into a storm of shock after hearing this.
An Illusionary Realm comparable to a Tier 3 Great Formation? Then, he stretched out his trembling hands and shakily accepted the Token.
Fellow Daoist Qin entrusted such an important item to himself, what did it signify? It showed he absolutely trusted him.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, Rest Assured, this item will only be used by me."
Qin Ming nodded. It was good that the other party understood. He also needed Wu Jiang to run errands and couldn't truly be Closed off from the world.
It was just that before his Breakthrough to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, he needed to increase some protective measures to avoid disturbances like Zhao Wuji's.
From then on, with the Mist Illusion Realm guarding Moon Gazing Island, it could be said to be as Fortified Like a Golden Citadel.
Not to mention Zhao Wuji, even if his Zhao Family's Pseudo-Core Old Ancestor came, barging into this pink Mist Illusion Realm, they would also have no return.
Normally, Qin Ming would hide all the mist and store it within the Illusion Mushrooms. As long as any Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator or above approached, it would automatically trigger the Illusionary Realm effect.
With this Barrier, Qin Ming could also focus on Farming and Cultivation in peace.
Half a month later.
As Qin Ming had expected.
Zhao Wuji was indeed still unwilling to give up, and appeared near Moon Gazing Lake once again. This time, it wasn't just him alone who came, but also a large group of Spirit Island Family Clans who had submitted to his Zhao Family.
Putting on an imposing manner as if to force surrender.
Mo Lingwei of Azure Haze Island was also among these people, likely coerced by Zhao Wuji.
But when they arrived near Moon Gazing Island, they were instantly dumbfounded.
They saw a sky-blocking and earth-covering pink mist, blocking their path.
"What kind of thing is this?"
"What is the Moon Gazing Island Lord up to?"
The crowd began to discuss amongst themselves. Only Mo Lingwei discerned the key point.
'Isn't this the Mist Illusion Realm formed by the mist released after the Second Tier Top-Grade Spirit Plant Mist Illusion Mushroom matures?'
'Comparable to… a Tier 3 Illusion Formation's special Illusionary Realm!'
Mo Lingwei's eyes were filled with shock, and her heart was already surging with waves, but she didn't intend to speak out, instead silently retreating to the very back.
Zhao Wuji was also staring at this mist, his brows tightly locked. Just now, he had released his Divine Sense to probe into the mist.
But he was shocked to discover.
The Divine Sense he released was like mud oxen entering the sea, swallowed by a black hole-like suction force, completely unable to discern anything.
For a time, the crowd stagnated in place, at a loss for ideas.
"Putting on an act!"
"Let this old man investigate and find out."
At this moment.
Two Foundation Establishment Cultivators from a Spirit Island Family Clan, seemingly unable to wait any longer, volunteered.
One of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators first released a flying crane Spirit Pet, which flew towards the mist, circling a few times and finding nothing amiss.
So, the Two Island Lords immediately activated their Mana Shields and flew towards the pink mist.
Initially.
The two entered the outer perimeter of the mist, came into contact with some pink mist, but nothing happened.
Therefore.
They emboldened themselves and continued to delve deeper into the mist.
Zhao Wuji watched as the Two Island Lords entered the mist, a very bad premonition rising in his heart.
However, he still calmly instructed the crowd, "Don't rush in yet. Wait for the Two Island Lords to come out and see what the situation is."
Subsequently.
The crowd quietly waited in place.
After a while.
Zhao Wuji also sent a voice transmission to the two, asking about the situation inside.
However.
Half an incense stick of time passed, and still no message was transmitted back.
Zhao Wuji began to sense that something was wrong, and his expression began to constantly change.
An hour passed.
Those two Cultivators still hadn't come out.
Now, the crowd present also began to panic, whispering amongst themselves.
Was the pink mist actually so terrifying? After the two Foundation Establishment entered, they couldn't even send back a message? Zhao Wuji was somewhat disbelieving. He was still quite confident in his Strength, and also had Trump Cards to protect his life, so he slightly approached the mist, maintaining a certain distance.
At first, some pink mist from the outer perimeter drifted over, and when he touched it, indeed nothing happened.
But after a while, the scene before his eyes suddenly changed, and he instantly fell into an Illusionary Realm of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
In the Illusionary Realm, those Cultivators he had once killed, at this moment, their Cultivation had all become several times higher than his, one by one rushing towards him to claim his life. Zhao Wuji revealed a look of terror and began to desperately struggle and resist. Crack!
At this moment, a milky white Jade Pendant on Zhao Wuji's waist shattered in response.
Zhao Wuji abruptly woke up from the Illusionary Realm. He was disheveled, still shaken, his back already drenched in cold sweat, and he quickly flew away from this place.
