Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes-Chapter 826 - : 842
Chapter 826: 842
“Yang Zhen, are you all right?”
Han Yan’er asked with concern at Yang Zhen’s side, her eyes revealing a trace of strangeness as she looked at him.
Yang Zhen was startled, shifting his gaze from the Ancient Bronze Tree to Han Yan’er and seeing the odd expressions on everyone else’s faces, he asked in surprise, “What just happened?”
Han Yan’er and the others exchanged looks, then said, “You just now were terrifying, with veins bulging all over and a fierce expression. Did you see something, or did you… enter the Illusion Domain?”
Clearly, Han Yan’er and the others had noticed the peculiarity of the Ancient Bronze Tree and knew that its aura could induce people into illusions.
Upon hearing Han Yan’er’s words, everyone present was startled and looked at Yang Zhen with shocked expressions.
...
Yang Zhen also jumped in fright, looked around at everyone, and asked, perplexed, “Didn’t you all see it?”
Han Yan’er’s complexion changed, and she quickly asked, “Did you really enter the Illusion Domain? What did you just see?”
The others also chimed in, crowding around Yang Zhen to ask, “Yang Zhen, it seemed like only you entered the Illusion Domain just now. What exactly happened? What’s the origin of this Ancient Bronze Tree?”
“It’s too horrifying. Just by staring at the Ancient Bronze Tree, one becomes stupefied, and immediately tries to hang oneself on it. No amount of shouting can wake them up, and they possess enormous strength that nobody can restrain.”
“Yeah, what in the world is this thing? How can we leave this place?”
“Many have already died here. I don’t want to die in this place without understanding why. Yang Zhen, did you or did you not see anything?”
Hearing the discussions and questions from the crowd, Yang Zhen took a deep breath, looked at Han Yan’er, and said, “Did you all really see nothing?”
Han Yan’er was taken aback, shook her head, and said, “Nothing!”
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen’s heart skipped and his face showed utter confusion.
This was becoming rather unfair. Although more than fifty people had already died here, there were still hundreds left. No one else had entered the Illusion Domain, only he did, and he had almost run his legs off in the process. Was there really such a way to mistreat someone?
Yang Zhen glanced at the Ancient Bronze Tree again, indeed feeling a bit dizzy.
But the next moment, Yang Zhen suddenly understood that him entering the Illusion Domain might not have been because his Spirit Soul was weak or his cultivation level was low, but due to some other reason.
That terrifying force that had erupted just now didn’t seem like an illusion at all; that overwhelming aura and the immobilizing heavenly might, Yang Zhen really couldn’t sense any feeling of the Illusion Domain.
Could it be that everyone had entered the Illusion Domain, except for him alone?
This thought made Yang Zhen’s expression even more peculiar, as this scenario was indeed not impossible.
Thus, Yang Zhen slowly approached the Ancient Bronze Tree to see if the Ancient Bronze Hall actually existed behind it.
If it did, then it wasn’t an illusion, and as things stood, everyone might still be in the Illusion Domain, perhaps including Yang Zhen, and what they were seeing wasn’t the real environment.
His movement startled everyone around, especially Han Yan’er. Her complexion changed, and she quickly grabbed Yang Zhen, saying with horror, “What are you doing?”
“Yang Zhen, you’re the only one who went into the Illusion Domain and came out. You can’t die here as well.”
“Quick, everyone, help keep hold of Yang Zhen. Don’t let him hang himself on the Ancient Bronze Tree.”
A group of people rushed over, intending to restrain Yang Zhen, who gestured with his hand to stop them and said, “Don’t worry, I haven’t lost consciousness.”
Upon hearing this, everyone relaxed a little, but Han Yan’er did not let go of Yang Zhen’s hand and asked, “What… did you actually see?”
Yang Zhen shook his head and said, “It’s hard to explain in a short time, and I don’t even know if I’m still in the Illusion Domain. First, let me confirm something.”
“Confirm something?” Han Yan’er blinked in surprise, and quickly asked, “What is it?”
Yang Zhen pointed to the left side of the ancient bronze tree and said, “Behind that, there seems to be an Ancient Bronze Hall. The entire valley is constructed from bronze, and a group of practitioners wearing armor, with cultivation around the Circulation Phase, went inside.”
“What?”
Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone gasped in shock, their expressions filled with disbelief as they looked toward the back of the ancient bronze tree. But that place was shrouded in chaos; even the air was twisted, and everything within sight was a blur. Not to mention the Ancient Bronze Hall, they couldn’t even make out the environment inside.
“Is there really an Ancient Bronze Hall there?”
“Yang Zhen, this is no trivial matter; don’t speak recklessly. What if there is no Ancient Bronze Hall there? Even if there really is one, with the ancient bronze tree being so terrifying, who would dare to enter?”
These words were true; everyone had cultivated hard to reach their current level. No one took their life lightly. Watching Yang Zhen heading towards the ancient bronze tree in search of the Ancient Bronze Hall, everyone instinctively stopped.
In such a life-threatening place, even if there were opportunities for fortunes, or even emperor-level legacies, one had to be alive to claim them. Besides, if someone were to enter the Ancient Bronze Hall first and obtain an emperor’s legacy without facing life-threatening danger, the rest would merely feel a twinge of envy. Then they could go in afterward to search for lesser fortunes or legacies.
When it came to life and death, everyone would act with extreme caution.
Han Yan’er’s face looked somewhat unpleasant. She glanced back at the others, then gripped Yang Zhen’s hand tightly and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Yang Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then patted Han Yan’er’s hand. Just as he was about to speak, Sao Saint had already started leading the way with his head held high.
“Dig up the grass; Sao Saint, wait a minute. There could be danger ahead. When did you become so reckless?”
Yang Zhen hurriedly called Sao Saint to stop, but Sao Saint did not pause, saying, “There’s something!”
Seeing Sao Saint’s reckless behavior, Yang Zhen was a bit caught between laughter and tears. He picked up Sao Saint and said sternly, “Even if there is something, it is for Sao Saint to check out first. Do you understand? Just wait here quietly with the little fool.”
Sao Saint paused, hesitated, and then asked, “Dangerous?”
“Even if it’s dangerous, it’s for Sao Saint to go in first, because I was the one who found this Ancient Bronze Hall first. Do you understand?”
Yang Zhen glared, thinking how this brat was getting more and more out of hand. When had it become his turn to be the one to clear the way for Sao Saint?
Sao Saint tilted his head in thought for a moment, then nodded and was just about to speak when a shout of surprise came from not far away, “Young friend Yang?”
Yang Zhen was startled and turned to look, breaking into a grin.
The Lord of the Jade Pool and others, accompanied by Hua Youyue, appeared in the sight of everyone, their faces showing a sense of relief. Then their gazes turned serious as they looked at the ancient bronze tree.
Seeing that the Lord of the Jade Pool and others were all staring intently at the ancient bronze tree, Yang Zhen hurriedly said, “Don’t keep staring at the ancient bronze tree.”
The Lord of the Jade Pool and the others grew solemn, their expressions odd as they withdrew their gaze and came to Yang Zhen to ask in astonishment, “What is this place, and why is there such a huge ancient bronze tree here?”
Yang Zhen shrugged. The old man obviously had no knowledge of the ancient bronze tree either. However, Hua Youyue and the wretched cat looked at the ancient bronze tree with peculiar expressions.
“Strange, how could this thing be here?” mumbled the wretched cat, climbing up Yang Zhen’s leg to his shoulder. “Kid, are you all okay?”
Yang Zhen’s eyes lit up as he asked, “Have you seen this kind of ancient bronze tree before?”

The wretched cat nodded and said, “I’ve seen it, but I’ve forgotten where. And I don’t know from what era it is. It’s quite eerie either way, so we’d better be careful.”
It was then that Hua Youyue suddenly spoke up, “Demon God Tree!”
