"What are you doing?
Shouldn't you stay with that guy named Elijah?"
Austin asked the mermaid with a bewildered look on his face.
"lI don't want to be with him. He does nothing but bother me.
No matter how many times | say that | only see him as my friend, he just won't quit.
Well, I've had enough."
the mermaid said as she followed closely.
"That's none of my business.
That's between the two of you,"
Austin said, pursing his lips.
"lI don't care. You have agreed to letstay by your side.
And here | thought you were a man of your words,"
the mermaid continued as she tried to keep up with Austin.
"All right, then.
If you insist."
Austin sighed.
"I'm just a weak woman. So it's your responsibly to look after me."
Overjoyed, she stuck out her tongue to tease him.
Soon after Austin and the mermaid took their leave, Elijah got rid of the illusions.
He searched everywhere, but couldn't find any trace of the two who just left.
"Humph! Just wait and see.
| swear | will tear you into pieces, you weakling.
That bitch even had the nerve to side with that weakling.
Someday, I'll make you mine and make your life a living hell!"
Jealousy and anger flooded his heart.
Only Austin could quench his thirst for blood.
At that time, Austin was exploring the maze with the mermaid.
The maze reached as far as the eye could see.
The place was teeming with different places like palaces, houses, courtyards, streets, shops and squares.
Moreover, it was full of illusions.
But these illusions couldn't pose a threat to Austin anymore.
Instead, he could now use them against his enemy.
The two of them kept moving forward, not minding anything they cacross.
Gradually, they began to run into more and more creatures.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLike Austin, they were also from the outside worlds.
These creatures were from the powerful forces that were allowed to enter the Land of Outlaw.
Almost every single one of them sought after the lllusionary Token.
As they stayed there, more and more tokens were revealed.
At the stime, the people from different forces had started fighting each other over the tokens.
This would sometimes even cause internal conflict among the said forces.
The tokens were sought after due to two reasons.
First, once one gathered three lllusionary Tokens and activated them, they could get out of the dangerous maze.
Second, one's spiritual sense would becstronger once they activated these tokens.
Knowing the power these tokens held, everyone was willing to fight anyone that stood in their way of getting one.
The lllusionary Tokens were the most useful treasures in this maze.
In search of power, every creature wanted to get as many tokens they could get their hands on.
Almost anyone benefited from increasing their spiritual sense, but none more so than divine gods.
The higher one's cultivation base was, the more difficult it was to improve his spiritual sense.
Hence, it was a once in a lifetopportunity for a divine god to easily improve his spiritual sense several times.
Everyone wanted to cash in on this.
Along the way, Austin met many creatures who were in search of the lllusionary Tokens, and many others who were fighting for it.
Many creatures who had collected three lllusionary Tokens immediately left the maze after they activated them.
Since the maze was full of illusions, it was risky for the relatively weak creatures to stay here.
Many creatures had already lost their lives inside.
Many voices could be heard echoing throughout the vast maze. While sheard the cheering sounds of joy, others heard agony
and defeat.
If Austin found an lllusionary Token along the way, he wouldn't hesitate to strike down anyone who dared to fight him.
He was confident that no one in the maze could defeat him except for the genuine premium-grade divine gods.
Only a couple days had passed and he had collected another twenty lllusionary Tokens.
Austin took the mermaid to a remote place. "lI am going to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time," he said to her.
Then he began to focus on his cultivation.
Before starting his cultivation, he ordered the genuine divine gods he had enslaved to stand guard for him.
After that, he took out twenty lllusionary Tokens and began to comprehend the law of illusion found within them.
'l wonder what stage | can reach after I'm done cultivating the twenty tokens.
The Major Achievement Stage or even the Perfection Stage?'
Austin's mind was filled with excitement and expectation.
Twenty lllusionary Tokens floated in front of him, piled in a neat row.
His spiritual sense penetrated into the tokens so that he could comprehend the law of illusion in them.
Soon, Austin's spiritual sense began to increase.
In his Soul Sea, the golden sphere of spiritual sense rotated while it kept drawing spiritual soul energy and law of illusion from the
tokens.
Illusions swarmed towards Austin.
Various images began to appear above his head, instantly changing to another as soon as it appeared. The disgruntled mess of
pictures slowly turned into vortexes which sounded like the roaring waves of the open sea.
The sphere of spiritual sense slowly grew bigger.
Austin had made progress both in his spiritual sense and the law of illusion.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
All of a sudden, streaks of bright light cdashing out of Austin's Soul Sea. The light formed dazzling rings made from the
spiritual sense which illuminated the entire space.
More and more illusions cforward to Austin.
They entered his Soul Sea and ended up being absorbed by the golden sphere.
Although overwhelmed, Austin willed himself to face the many illusions.
Three days passed in an instant.
The spiritual sense coming out from Austin's head becmore powerful with every second.
He emanated light rings of spiritual sense that shrouded his body.
Meanwhile, the golden sphere inside of him swelled up and its density grew tenfold. Runes of the law of illusion started to appear
on its surface as it continued to absorb more and more illusions.
In the fifth day, Austin suddenly woke up.
His eyes were misty
with a cloud of illusions.
He now had the power to trap a weak divine god in a never-ending illusion just by simply making eye contact.
'l thought twenty lllusionary Tokens could helpat least reach the Major Achievement Stage of the law of illusion.
But it turns out | just entered the Intermediate Stage.
Is it because the higher one's cultivation base is, the more difficult it is to cultivate the original chaotic law of illusion?
Maybe, *
Austin thought to himself and smiled bitterly.
"I need to find more lllusionary Tokens,"
Austin murmured to himself as he got up.
He knew that this was a once in a lifetchance to improve his power.
He might not have such an opportunity in the future.
Hence, he continued his journey with the mermaid.
A day later, Austin suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Wilfred!"
Austin exclaimed in surprise and delight.
