Starting as a prodigy wanting milk? A world-destroying deception in the opposite direction.

Shen Zhen ignored their cries of alarm and charged toward Miao Erhu with the Mind Ruler in hand.

Wherever the white light passed, the gray phantoms dissipated, and the green energy ropes seemed to have encountered their nemesis, quickly contracting and retreating.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to break free from the distraction, Miao Erhu saw the Mind Ruler in Shen Zhen's hand and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes:

"Little Shen, this is good stuff!"

"Everyone, come closer to me!" Shen Zhen shouted, her voice reaching everyone's ears.

Zhao Huaijin was entangled by several ropes. Upon hearing this, he immediately broke through towards Shen Zhen's direction. His telekinetic blade tore through the air and cut off a green rope that was rushing towards him, but the second one entangled him.

Lu Renjia followed closely behind, protecting Qi Xuejian and Chen Xi as they slowly approached.

Just now, a phantom almost touched Chen Xi's face, and its distorted face made her look pale.

Qi Xuejian gripped the detection compass tightly, and as she approached the area of ​​the white light, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise:

"Captain Shen's telekinesis..."

Shen Zhen found it a little strange to hear her muttering.

Just now I did feel a strange wisp of psychic energy within my body...

Attraction to...

But it was fleeting, and he dismissed it as a hallucination from the battle, without giving it much thought.

Moreover, the crisis was not yet over, he said in a deep voice:

"Let's deal with the immediate problem first!" He pointed the mantra ruler at the giant face of the Devouring Demon.

"Ren Fei, Brother Hu, take this opportunity to purify the well!"

This ruler can ward off evil spirits; I will protect you!

Zhao Huaijin and Lu Renjia, guard both flanks and prevent them from attacking and getting close!

Li Qingyan and Zhou Shi, continue to keep the remaining villagers calm and prevent them from being disturbed again!

Wu Xian, be on guard and keep an eye on your surroundings!

The moment the command was given, Shen Zhen had already rushed out.

The white light from the Nianjie ruler gathered in his hand into a screen of light, which rushed straight towards the giant face of the Devouring Demon.

With a furious roar, the Devourer unleashed countless green ropes that surged forth, weaving into a giant net in the air as it attempted to completely engulf and devour the light barrier.

But the white light from the Nianjie ruler seemed to have a natural ability to subdue these evil spirits.

The green rope netting vanished the moment it touched the white light, offering no resistance whatsoever.

"Impossible!" The gluttonous giant face began to twist and deform, and it began to retreat.

Shen Zhen felt that the Nen Ruler in his hand was becoming more and more comfortable to use, so he poured all his Nen power into it.

The white light grew increasingly intense, illuminating the entire area around the well. The gray mist was completely driven back, unable to get any closer.

Seeing this, the Demon of Illusion knew that it would be dangerous to delay any longer, and tried to escape, but was stopped by Zhao Huaijin who arrived in time.

Although Zhao Huaijin was arrogant, he dared not be careless at this moment. He transformed his mental power into several sharp blades and slashed at the gray mist:

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

The gray mist was torn open in several places by the sharp blade, but it quickly closed up again.

Having witnessed firsthand the power of the Mind Control Ruler and Shen Zhen's command abilities, Zhao Huaijin's arrogance diminished considerably.

Lu Renjia stayed by Ren Fei and Miao Erhu's side, blocking any stray ropes that occasionally slipped through the net.

Ren Fei and Miao Erhu immediately formed hand seals and chanted purification incantations:

"Purify your mind, dispel delusions!"

Two beams of psychic energy rose from their hands and quickly poured into the well.

The water in the well began to churn and emit a pungent odor, clearly resisting purification.

"Trying to purify my energy? Wishful thinking!" The giant face of the Devourer suddenly swelled violently, more than doubling in size.

Its eerie green eyes shone brightly, and two beams of green light shot out, heading straight for Ren Fei and his companion.

This green light was several times more corrosive than the previous green rope. Wherever it passed, even the air seemed to be distorted, emitting a hissing sound.

Ren Fei and Miao Erhu's expressions changed drastically, and the hand seals on their hands trembled.

They could sense the terrifying power contained within the green light, but their hands did not stop moving at all, and the sound of the purification incantation grew louder and louder.

"Don't get distracted! Keep going!" Shen Zhen shouted, leaping in front of the two, the white light and green light colliding together.

Shen Zhen was jolted back two steps, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

But he gripped the Mind Ruler tightly in his hand, stubbornly blocking the green light.

The green light, blocked by the white light, split to both sides like waves crashing against rocks.

The two large trees next to them were snapped in half.

"Boom!"

The sound of trees falling sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Wu Xian watched with a pounding heart. He wanted to help but was afraid of making things worse, so he could only subconsciously mimic the hand gestures.

He stared intently at his surroundings, and when he saw villagers trying to approach the well, he immediately ran over to stop them, awkwardly casting the newly learned incantation to soothe their spirits:

"Chen An... Nian Ding..."

"You, you mustn't go there, it's dangerous!" His voice stammered with nervousness.

Li Qingyan and Zhou Shi gradually stabilized the situation.

Li Qingyan became more and more proficient in the incantation to soothe the spirits, and each time he recited it, he could restore a villager's clarity of mind.

Zhou Shi, using his extraordinary strength, pulled the agitated villagers away, one in each hand, and protected them in a safe area, all the while muttering:

"Stop fighting! Stop fighting! We're all from the same village, let's talk this out!"

Just as the purification process reached its most critical moment, the giant face of the Devourer suddenly underwent a strange change.

The face, made up of various foods, began to transform and recombine.

"Oh no!" Shen Zhen's heart alarm bells rang.

"It is gathering all its strength, preparing for the final blow!"

Ren Fei, Tiger, speed things up!

Ren Fei and Miao Erhu's veins bulged as they frantically chanted incantations. The pillar of light injected into the well grew even thicker, and the well water churned like boiling water, as the abnormal energy was being rapidly purified.

"Cooperate with me!" After saying that, the Gluttonous Devourer suddenly burst out of his giant mouth with all kinds of delicious delicacies, which were perfect in color, aroma and taste.

"The appetite, an instinct humans are born with, let it be!"

The Illusion Demon didn't want to deal with the Devourer, but the current situation was unfavorable to it, so it had no choice but to unleash its strongest attack.

"You all live in the dream I've woven!"

Just this one moment!

"It smells so good!" Wu Xian's eyes immediately went blank.

Li Qingyan's incantation to soothe the spirit was forcibly interrupted, and he also fell into a brief daze.

Zhou Shi felt a wave of dizziness as he was hit by the sudden fragrance.

Zhao Huaijin and Lu Renjia struggled to stay conscious, but the fragrance clung to them relentlessly, constantly eroding their will.

Qi Xuejian and Chen Xi were also not spared.

Even the villagers stopped what they were doing, staring blankly as they walked towards the direction of the food monster, muttering to themselves:

"It smells so good, I want to eat it."

The only thing unaffected was the Mind Ruler in Shen Zhen's hand.

Sudden.

The Nianjie Ruler spontaneously unleashed an unprecedentedly intense white light. The light was gentle, yet it protected Shen Zhen within it, and barely shielded Ren Fei and Miao Erhu, who were closest to him.

But others weren't so lucky.

Wu Xian is in the most danger.

He was the furthest from Shen Zhen, and his mental cultivation was the shallowest.

Under the onslaught of his appetite, his consciousness was almost torn apart.

Even more fatally, the lustful demon, who had been waiting for an opportunity, seized it.

"My people, may you forever be consumed by the gluttony of this dream!"

Its voice was magnetic, drawing Wu Xian toward it.

"Wu Xian!" Shen Zhen's eyes widened in fury.

"That's not food, it's garbage, it's poison!"

Shen Zhen shouted at the top of her lungs.

He tried to wake Wu Xian using the same method as last time, but this time it didn't work.

"It's no use," the voice of the Devourer rang out:

"Their appetite is so intense that the last method didn't work."

Hearing Shi Wang's mockery, Shen Zhen was extremely anxious.

He was currently focused on maintaining the Mind Ruler and fighting off the attacks from the Devouring Demon and the Illusionary Desire Demon on Ren Fei and Miao Erhu, so he couldn't spare a moment to spare.

And it all happened in the blink of an eye.

If Wu Xian continues like this, he will be forever trapped in his dream world.

He did not withdraw the Nianjie Ruler to save Wu Xian, because if he did, Ren Fei and Miao Erhu, who were undergoing purification, would be immediately exposed to the final counterattack of the Devouring Illusion, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.

But he couldn't just stand by and watch Wu Xian be completely swallowed up.

"Stop... right now!"

Shen Zhen roared out these words, and then poured all his mental power into the Mind Ruler.

This is an almost self-destructive overdraft!
