This place seems to be the core of the Illusionary Demon Forest, with a rich spiritual energy permeating the surrounding air.

In the center of the space, there was a spiritual herb that shone with brilliant light and exuded powerful vitality.

"Is this the Soul-Returning Herb? That's wonderful! With it, Qingxin will definitely recover!"

Suhe excitedly ran towards the medicinal herb, ready to pick it.

But just then, a huge figure suddenly appeared and blocked Su He's way.

It was a monster several meters tall, its entire body as black as ink, with blood-red eyes, exuding an evil aura.

"Human, how dare you trespass into my territory and covet my treasures! You're courting death!"

The monster let out a deafening roar and launched an attack on Suhe.

Su He quickly raised his sword to block, but felt a tremendous force strike him, almost knocking him away.

"Such immense power! This guy seems to be a guardian of the Illusion Demon Forest; he's not easy to deal with."

Su He steadied himself, circulated his true energy, and the Tai Xuan Sword shone brightly.

Getting past this monster will not be easy.

But he had made up his mind that no matter what, he would get the Soul Return Grass and save Qingxin.

"Monster, you cannot stop me! I will defeat you today and obtain the elixir!"

Su He shouted and charged toward the monster with lightning speed.

The Tai Xuan Sword transformed into a streak of silver light, piercing straight into the monster's heart.

The monster snorted coldly, spread its arms, and actually took the sword strike head-on.

"Foolish human, do you think you can hurt me with your meager skills?"

The monster opened its mouth and spewed out a cloud of black mist that enveloped Suhe.

Su He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and the surrounding scenery instantly changed.

He found himself in a sea of ​​fire, surrounded by raging flames.

"This is an illusion! Damn it, we've fallen for it!"

Su He knew something was wrong and quickly circulated his inner energy to try to dispel the illusion.

But this illusion seemed different from the previous ones, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from it.

The flames burned brighter and brighter, and Suhe felt unbearably hot all over, as if he were about to be burned to ashes.

"No, this will be dangerous if it continues! We must find a way to break the illusion!"

Su He gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, and began to recall Lin Xuan's teachings.

"Illusions are based on consciousness. The key to breaking an illusion lies in one's own will."

No matter how real the scene before you may seem, believe it is merely an illusion and stay true to yourself.

Su He suddenly opened his eyes.

He raised the Tai Xuan Sword and stabbed it fiercely into his own arm.

A sharp pain shot through him, and blood splattered everywhere.

But the next moment, the surrounding sea of ​​fire began to twist and deform, and gradually dissipated.

Su He was pleasantly surprised to find that he had returned to the previous space, and the monster was right in front of him.

"What? You actually managed to break my illusion? Impossible!"

The monster let out a roar of alarm and anger, its eyes glowing red, and it lunged at Suhe once more.

Su He sneered, and the Tai Xuan Sword shone brightly.

Having learned from his previous experience, this time he did not confront the enemy head-on, but instead skillfully dodged away.

At the same time, he channeled his inner energy, condensing a massive vortex of sword energy in his hand.

"Taste my power! Heavenly Dragon Sword Qi!"

Su He shouted and hurled the vortex of sword energy in his hand at the monster.

The vortex spun rapidly, emitting a dazzling light, and instantly engulfed the monster.

The monster let out a piercing scream, and countless wounds appeared on its pitch-black body.

Black blood gushed out, filling the space with a pungent stench.

"You wretched human, you have hurt me! I will tear you apart and devour your soul!"

The monster was enraged, and its aura became increasingly violent.

It opened its enormous mouth and spat out a ball of pitch-black flame, which rushed straight towards Suhe.

Su He quickly circulated his true energy and set up a sword energy barrier in front of him.

The flames struck the barrier, producing a piercing explosion, and the barrier shattered instantly.

Su He felt a scorching heat surge over him, almost engulfing him.

He quickly jumped back to avoid it, but his arm was still grazed by the flames, and his skin was charred.

"Such powerful flames! It seems this monster is more troublesome than I imagined."

Su He frowned, knowing that sword energy alone would probably be insufficient to defeat his opponent.

He must find a way to break through the monster's defenses and find its weakness.

Su He turned his gaze and suddenly noticed a black vortex-shaped mark on the monster's chest.

"What is that? Could it be its weakness?"

Su He had a sudden inspiration and decided to take a gamble.

He took a deep breath and once again condensed a vortex of sword energy, but this time, he did not directly attack the monster.

Instead, it controls the vortex, causing it to spin rapidly around the monster, forming a huge cyclone.

The cyclone whipped up the sand and stones on the ground and rushed towards the monster.

The monster repeatedly swung its arms, blocking all the sand and stones, but this was exactly what Su He wanted.

Taking advantage of the monster's distraction, he flashed forward and rushed directly to the monster's chest.

Suhe unleashed a full-force sword strike, aiming straight for the vortex mark on the monster's chest.

But at that moment, the monster suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a cloud of black mist, which swallowed Suhe whole.

Su He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and the surrounding scenery twisted and changed once again.

He found himself in a strange place, surrounded by darkness and nothingness.

"Another illusion! Damn it, this monster's illusions are too powerful!"

Su He quickly activated his inner energy cultivation technique.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape this darkness.

He felt his consciousness gradually fading, as if he were about to be swallowed up.

Just then, a thought suddenly flashed through Su He's mind.

"Oh, right, the jade pendant Qingxin gave me! It has the power to purify illusions!"

Su He quickly took out the jade pendant from his bosom, and saw that the jade pendant emitted a soft light.

The light grew brighter and brighter, gradually enveloping Su He's entire body.

Su He felt a cool sensation wash over him, and the surrounding darkness began to dissipate.

The next moment, he was back in the same space, with the monster right in front of him.

"What?! My illusion was broken?! That's impossible!"

The monster let out a shocked roar, its eyes flashing with ferocity, and pounced on Suhe again.

Su He sneered, gripped the Tai Xuan Sword tightly, and went to meet the attack.

"Thank you for your illusion, which allowed me to see my own heart clearly! Now, I have nothing to fear!"

Su He shouted, and the Tai Xuan Sword burst forth with dazzling light.

He channeled his inner energy, unleashing a surge of sword energy that transformed into a silver dragon that charged straight at the monster.

The monster spread its arms in an attempt to block, but the sword energy was too sharp and pierced through its body.

"ah--!"

The monster let out a scream, and the vortex mark on its chest shattered instantly.

It swayed a few times before finally crashing to the ground and dissipating into a cloud of black mist.

Su He let out a long breath and sheathed his sword.

He turned to look at the elixir in the center of the space.

"Finally got the Soul-Returning Grass! Qingxin, I'm here to save you!"

Su He quickly stepped forward, carefully picked the medicinal herb, and put it into his bosom.
