Chapter 330: Breaking the Second Illusion
The black gas completely dissipated in Fu Hua's spiritual world, and the figure of the Corrosion Herrscher had long since disappeared. Wang Chen knew the power of the Great Void Sword God. Even the Collapse God was broken, let alone the Corrosion Herrscher? Naturally, he turned into nothingness.
"It's a pity that Fu Hua can hardly use the Taixu Sword God again, both mentally and physically. She can only barely swing this sword in her own spiritual world. After she goes out, it will be difficult for her to use this move again. Otherwise, it will be easier for her to face the Corrosion Ruler later." Wang Chen thought.
Although the Herrscher of Corrosion had been destroyed in Fu Hua's Spirit World Cup, Wang Chen did not think that it was the Herrscher of Corrosion's real body, and guessed that this guy had sent another clone to attack. However, the Great Void Sword God specifically targeted the spirit, and even if it was a clone, the real body would probably be implicated in the attack of the Great Void Sword God, and it would not be very comfortable.
"Achen...are you also a fantasy?" At this time, Fu Hua turned around and looked at Wang Chen.
"Uh..." Since Wang Chen had been in sync with Fu Hua, he actually saw the dream consciousness conversation between Fu Hua and Cang Xuan Dan Zhu just now, so he was a little at a loss for what to do when Fu Hua asked him suddenly.
"No kidding, long time no see, Achen." Fu Hua smiled faintly, as if she had seen an old friend she hadn't seen for many years, with a look of nostalgia in her eyes. Seeing Fu Hua's expression, Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat. When would Fu Hua smile at him like this? No, when had Fu Hua ever shown such emotion in front of anyone?
"It's still the same as always. You haven't changed at all, Achen." Fu Hua walked in front of Wang Chen and said, "Achen, what time is it now? What happened to me?"
"Sure enough... Fu Hua in the pre-civilization period has seen me, and it seems that we have a deep relationship... But that's not right. Why didn't the Fu Hua in reality show any familiarity with me? Was she pretending? That's not right either... We have established a synchronous link. Or did she forget?" Wang Chen looked at Fu Hua's behavior and did not answer the other party's question immediately. Instead, he thought about it.
"Oh...it turns out the time has not yet come...that is to say, the current time is after December 2013, 12. That means it has been forgotten. Achen." At this time, Fu Hua's voice sounded in Wang Chen's mind.
"Damn it! Didn't I bypass Femilis to establish a synchronous link with Fu Hua? How come Fu Hua can still read my thoughts?" Wang Chen was numb. Every time after establishing a synchronous link with Fu Hua, he was the one who was passive.
"It's not a question of bypassing someone, but Ah Chen, you have already entered my spiritual world, so our thoughts are inherently in a state of mutual blending. I remember you once taught me a method of spiritual practice called the method of mind exchange, which is probably the state we are in now." Fu Hua explained.
"Mind...mind exchange method?! Hiss...Okay, I know what's going on. So Fu Hua in reality has forgotten, but now that her consciousness has split, as a separate body carrying the memory, you have remembered it, right?" Wang Chen asked.
"Well, that's it. At this point in time, I have temporarily forgotten my memory of you, Achen. After all, time and cause and effect need to be stabilized, otherwise it will cause unimaginable consequences." Fu Hua explained, "So, after 2013, what I just encountered was Ling... No, it wasn't Ling... Yes, she was. In short, you are now involved in things related to Ling, right?"
"It's not...she is...Fu Hua, have you also learned the bad habit of being a riddle man?" Wang Chen curled his lips. Fu Hua was obviously the most honest person in Honkai Impact 3, but he didn't expect that she would now treat him like a riddle man.
"I'm sorry, I didn't want to either. After all, you told me all this yourself, Achen." Fu Hua showed an apologetic expression, and then said, "But you have already guessed it, after all, how could there be such a coincidence in the world, with a similar face and a homophonic name. What's more, she just used that power."
Wang Chen fell silent, his eyes looking in a certain direction, that is, a girl who was constantly trying to save himself and Fu Hua. "So, what is going on?" Wang Chen asked slowly.
"Inner knot, inner demon... whatever it is, you have solved this kind of thing many times, right? Ling... is also a poor child, help her, just like you have always done. Untie her inner knot, help her defeat that demonic thought or... the Herrscher personality. Only in this way can Ling come back, I believe Ying must also want to see this result."
Fu Hua sighed, then looked at Lin and said, "I not only owe that child an apology, I also owe her a life-saving favor. If possible, please say sorry to her for me. When I fully recover my memory, I will personally deliver the belated apology."
"I understand. Lin... Ling is indeed a good kid. And the Ruler of Corrosion will definitely pay the price for the crimes it has committed." Wang Chen clenched his fists and said.
"Then I'll leave my matter to you, Achen. See you later..." Then, Fu Hua emitted light and turned into a red feather again and fell into Wang Chen's palm.
"Eh? Why did Sister Fu Hua suddenly disappear? Brother Wang Chen, how are you?" At this time, Lin's voice appeared behind Wang Chen. At this time, Wang Chen also noticed that his consciousness had left Fu Hua's spiritual world, and the synchronous link was disconnected.
"I'm fine. Fu Hua... has defeated the Corrosion Ruler. Afterwards, she asked me to thank you and turned into a new feather." Wang Chen stood up and turned around, smiling at Lin. Then, he touched Lin's head and said, "Thanks to Lin this time, otherwise Fu Hua and I would be in danger."
"Lin...Lin just did what she wanted to do. It's just..." Lin's eyes were evasive and she said nervously.
"what happened?"
"Brother Wang Chen... do you think that Lin's power is a little strange? Do you think that Lin... is a monster?" Lin murmured unconsciously.
"Why do you think so, Lin? Didn't I tell you... It's all thanks to Lin that I and your sister Fu Hua were saved this time. And you're so cute, Lin." Wang Chen said with a smile. He then scratched Lin's nose and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild, Lin. This fantasy space is about to end, and we should meet up with Principal Theresa and the others."
"Um...well, sorry Brother Wang Chen, Lin said some nonsense." Lin also shook her head and said with a smile.
Wang Chen pulled Lin up, then raised his palm and floated the feather into the air. The feather then formed a vortex, sucking all the surrounding space into it, which meant that another illusion was broken by Wang Chen and others. Afterwards, Wang Chen noticed that he had returned to the space with the mirror floor at the beginning, and Theresa and others were also around him.
The two feathers slowly fell into Wang Chen's hands. Wang Chen kept them. He then looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, we have successfully passed the second illusion. I think it won't be long before we can gather Fu Hua's consciousness."
Chapter 331 Lin's True Identity
Wang Chen narrated to everyone present his experiences in the illusion and the general process of his and Fu Hua's fight against the Corrosion Ruler in the spiritual world. For a moment, everyone was filled with emotion. They admired Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu for their blessings and protection for Fu Hua, and felt sorry for everything Fu Hua had gone through.
"However, after experiencing this time, I believe that the resistance in the next illusion will be much smaller. I know that Fu Hua's special move can directly hit the mind and soul. I believe that the Herrscher must feel uncomfortable after receiving this blow. I am afraid that he will not have time to erode Fu Hua's consciousness in various illusions in a short time. He can only trap Fu Hua in the illusion temporarily." Wang Chen said.
"That means, we don't need to interfere anymore. As long as we find the illusion, we can wake it up?" Theresa asked.
"Well, each feather we collect now contains a piece of Fu Hua's consciousness. When we find the next illusion, the consciousness in these feathers will gradually merge with Fu Hua's consciousness in the illusion, thus prompting Fu Hua to wake up from the illusion. After all, Fu Hua is good at the spiritual and consciousness fields. With just a little influence, she can get rid of the environment created by Yu Duchen by herself." Wang Chen said.
"Then shall we head to the next illusion now? Or should we take a rest? After all, Captain Wang Chen, you have just experienced a battle. And Lin has also touched the erosion power of the Herrscher, and we don't know if there will be any sequelae." Theresa looked at Lin and said.
"Let's go directly to the next place. There won't be any fighting next anyway. We just need to throw the feather in to bring Fu Hua's consciousness back. As for Lin, let her follow me first. I will check her physical condition carefully along the way. Lin, give me your hand." After saying that, Wang Chen stretched out his hand to Lin and said.
"Hmm..." Lin's face turned slightly red. She stretched out her hand and held Wang Chen's. Then she felt a warm force coming from the palm of her hand and flowing into every part of her body. She felt warm all over, just like soaking in a hot spring.
"Okay, now that the Herrscher of Corrosion has been injured, we must seize the opportunity to quickly gather consciousness and see if there are any other companions trapped in the illusion." Theresa nodded, and then gave some instructions, asking everyone to follow Wang Chen. Wang Chen showed the feather again, letting the feather sense the location of the surrounding illusion and move forward with the feather.
……
"Femilis, it should be almost done. Let's check Lin's character panel." After walking for a while, Wang Chen said slowly.
"Received~ Ding——Lin data is as follows:
Name: Lin (fake), Ling (real)
Age: Over 5 years

"Tsk, Femilis, what are you hiding from me? I don't believe you couldn't detect this part of Lin's face before. Do you have to wait until I notice it myself before you reveal it? Also, I still haven't found my Valkyries for such a long time. Given their personalities, they won't leave my safety alone for so long."
After seeing Lin's faceplate, Wang Chen was not surprised at all. He had collected a lot of information about Lin bit by bit, and with Fu Hua's confession just now, Wang Chen already knew Lin's true identity - the real Herrscher of Corrosion, a being who had survived 50,000 years ago, and Sakura's sister Ling.
And it was obvious that Ling's memory had also been tampered with, otherwise she would not have realized that she would use the power of erosion until now. Coupled with Fu Hua's words "You told me in person", it was obvious that this erosion incident was a trap! It was a trap set by herself. Obviously, she could not harm herself, which also explained why Wang Chen had been in the illusion for such a long time, but he never met the three Valkyries outside.
"What exactly should I do in the future... It's a headache. However, in order to guide the right future, I'm afraid the relevant people won't be able to ask anything useful. I can only rely on myself to piece it together. And the next choices must be based on my heart! It's even better for me to forget about my own layout." Wang Chen thought.
"Captain, you have a good idea. It's not that we intend to hide it, but in order to lead to the correct result in the future, we must keep it a secret from the captain. But now there are too many unreasonable things. The more clues the captain finds, the more inevitable it is that he will draw these conclusions. But as the captain just thought, just follow your heart." Femilis said in her mind.
"Then can you tell me why you did this? What can I get?" Wang Chen said.
"This is the only way I can save Changkong City, Captain." Femilis said with an embarrassed expression.
"A method that can save the entire Changkong City? Is that so..." Wang Chen nodded after hearing this general answer. Although Wang Chen didn't know what the specific method was, he could accept this answer. After all, this matter had been bothering Wang Chen since the beginning of his journey.
"Captain, although you and everyone else set up this situation, it is still very dangerous. I believe you already know that there is a terrifying existence in this consciousness space." Femilis said seriously.
"The Will of Honkai, right... okay. Let me take a good look at what will happen. Now let's gather Fu Hua's consciousness and observe the changes in Ling. The Will of Honkai and that Herrscher personality. I must kill them!" Wang Chen said with a ruthless look in his eyes.
……
In the following time, Wang Chen and his team collected several feathers in succession, all of which were collected from some very short illusions, including the pre-civilization period, when Fu Hua and Carol played happily together and talked about their dreams for the future; after joining the Fire Moth, they couldn't adapt to the cruel battle of collapse, and why people could still gather to celebrate; and when the pre-civilization was a foregone conclusion, they were ready to enter a deep sleep and welcome the confusion and monologue of the next era.
The last scene they were watching was about Fu Hua becoming the Red Kite Immortal. At first, an armed puppet that looked like Cang Xuan accompanied Fu Hua, but later, even the armed puppet could not resist the erosion of time, and finally only Fu Hua was left. She sealed more and more memories, and her face gradually lost human emotions... Insensitive? Forgetful? Wang Chen and others could only watch Fu Hua punch... punch... punch... in the long river of time, solving the collapse incident and maintaining the fire of civilization, doing this all the time.
The fist is the pestle and history is the drum. The dull drum sounds echo in this long river of time. The heaviness presses down every spectator, making them feel a little breathless.
Chapter 332 Wang Chen's Fury
"I once heard a rumor that the Shenzhou Immortal had protected the land of Shenzhou for ten thousand years. Even the Valkyries far away in the sky admired such legends. But now after seeing these illusions and the life of that 'immortal', I can't imagine how torturous this loneliness and boredom is. I can't imagine how heavy this mission is. And Fu Hua... is really just like what Captain Wang Chen and the two seniors Dan Zhu and Cang Xuan said, she is gradually heading towards that ending."
Theresa saw how the introverted Chi Yuan, who was not very good at expressing her emotions, gradually lost her memories, emotions, and humanity... She had no ties with the world, and for the sake of her mission, she walked towards a life that was set to have no end.
"I never thought that the immortal was actually right next to us. I've also heard bedtime stories about the immortals in Shenzhou in my family before." Wu Se Hui Huo was also looking at everything in the illusion at this moment and said. As for Wu Se Hui Huo and Ai Sha beside her, they were pulled out of the illusions encountered during this period.
"It's just that Senior Fu Hua, whom you mentioned before, was arranged by the bishop to come to Principal Theresa. But, as an immortal originally from Shenzhou, how could such a living legend surrender to the bishop?" Aisha Lopez said, remembering that Wang Chen explained to them the current situation and Fu Hua's identity.
"I'm afraid you will see the answer in your next illusion... If I saw it correctly in the illusion just now, the time in Shenzhou is the second year of Jianwen in the Ming Dynasty, and Fu Hua is traveling around Shenzhou as True Man Chi Yuan." Wang Chen said slowly.
"The second year of Jianwen?" Theresa asked doubtfully.
"It's 1400 AD. There's nothing special about this year, but... it's very close to a certain period." Wang Chen said slowly.
"That was the 15th century... the Army of Heaven's Mandate marched eastward!! That was the period when grandpa lived!" Theresa reacted immediately.
"Well... this is also the period when Fu Hua... finally reaches that ending. Let's go, it's time to go to the next illusion." Wang Chen's voice was a little unhappy. After Wang Chen put away the feathers that turned into the illusion, he walked towards the direction of the feathers without saying a word. Everyone present could clearly feel Wang Chen's emotional change.
"What's wrong... Captain Wang Chen seems to be very angry. Why did his mood suddenly become so bad?" Theresa asked uneasily.
"Indeed, the bad guy is in a very bad mood. What does the ending he just mentioned... mean? Does anyone of you know?" asked Wu Se Hui Huo.
"I remember Aibo said before that Senior Fu Hua's character and beliefs will be gradually brainwashed by the ideological stamp, and she will become a tool that only knows 'kill all demons' and kills Honkai. And eventually a tragedy will be brewed... Wait, does the ending that Aibo said mean that Senior Fu Hua will experience another very painful tragedy?" Penglai Temple Jiuxiao speculated.
"Don't guess anymore. When you continue to witness it, you will understand why the captain is so angry. You will understand it after you see it. Follow the captain first and don't get distracted." Femilis, who already knew the script, did not continue the topic and reminded everyone to follow Wang Chen.
Wang Chen, on the other hand, walked forward with heavy steps. He was finally about to see that incident - seven disciples murdering their master. Almost the original sin committed by seven ungrateful people. Along the way, looking at Fu Hua's memories, although he already knew many stories, when he was there, Wang Chen felt even more distressed for Fu Hua, who had transformed from a cowardly and confused little girl to a warrior against Honkai, and then to an immortal who silently protected the land of Shenzhou.
It is precisely because of witnessing this process that such people... or in other words, heroes who silently contribute, heroes who carry the burden forward... should not face such an ending! ! What if Fu Hua did not have such a perverted recovery ability of the fusion warrior physique? What if those seven ungrateful wolves were a little more ruthless? If there was a slight accident, Fu Hua would really die!
From a weak little girl to a tormented protector... Wang Chen had seen clearly what she had to go through. So, even though Wang Chen was already familiar with the plot, when he thought of Fu Hua's tragic ending, he felt like he was going to bleed from his fists.
Wang Chen took a deep breath. He needed to adjust his mental state. He hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, but just thinking about it made him so angry. If he really witnessed it, he was afraid that he would lose his mind. Emotional riots were nothing, but Wang Chen knew that the Herr Corrosion would never let such an incident go. This would probably be the best sword to kill the heart in the eyes of the Herr Corrosion. If he lost his mind, how could he help Fu Hua turn the tide?
Suddenly, Wang Chen felt someone pulling at the corner of his clothes from behind. He turned around and saw that it was Lin who was pulling him with a worried look on her face.
"What's wrong, Lin?" Wang Chen stopped and asked.
“Brother Wang Chen…seems to be very angry, but he’s getting further and further away from everyone.” Lin said, turning around and pointing behind him.
"...Sorry, Lin. I suddenly lost control of myself." Wang Chen cursed himself for being stupid and making such a mistake.
"Don't blame Brother Wang Chen... because Lin noticed that it was that guy who was causing trouble again. Brother Wang Chen, can you lend your hand to Lin? It's Lin's turn this time." Lin stretched out her hand to Wang Chen and said.
"That guy?" After hearing Lin's reminder, Wang Chen suddenly realized what was happening and soon realized the small wisp of black energy in his body. When did it silently enter his body? Then he saw Lin still holding out her hand, so Wang Chen took it. Afterwards, a purple light burst out from Lin's body, and Wang Chen felt a strange power entering his body. However, at the first moment, the power of the holy mark and the power of the mind source in his body rejected the entry of this power. Only under Wang Chen's own guidance did he allow Lin's power to enter and assimilate the black energy in his body.
"That's all right." Lin let go of her hand and said with a smile.
"Lin's power has helped me a lot. Now the methods of eroding the Herrscher are becoming more and more bizarre. This time, even I didn't notice when it started." Wang Chen praised.
"Actually, Lin didn't notice it at first. What I saw was that when Brother Wang Chen closed the illusion, the feather fell into Brother Wang Chen's hands, and then a wisp of black gas emerged from the feather and penetrated into Brother Wang Chen's body. But that wisp of black gas was far less massive than the one I assimilated. It seems that Brother Wang Chen's black gas was not formed by a single erosion." Lin explained.
"Use feathers to carry out slight erosion, and then cause qualitative change through quantitative change? Haha, it seems that even if the Erosion Herrscher has no time to erode those illusions, it doesn't want us to be able to take back Fu Hua's consciousness so easily. That's why it uses this method." Wang Chen used his mind source to examine a feather, and after finding that there was no more excess black air, he let those feathers continue to explore the direction.
"Captain Wang Chen, you are walking too fast." At this time, Theresa and others also rushed over. Then Wang Chen explained what had just happened and asked everyone to be more careful about the means of eroding the Herrscher.
Chapter 333: Seven Disciples Killing Their Master
Wang Chen and the others continued to walk in the direction of the feather. Wang Chen was a little curious about how big this illusionary space was. He hadn't even reached the edge yet. Of course, it was also possible that it was just like the gaps in the outside world, all in chaos and ever-changing. Fortunately, with the guidance of the feather, Wang Chen and the others finally arrived at the next illusionary gap.
"Wait... something is wrong with this illusion." Wang Chen stopped everyone's steps because he felt a very familiar disgusting breath, which was the breath of the Corrosion Herrscher. After Wang Chen used a special perspective to observe, he soon found that there was a faint black air leaking out of the gap in front of him, which was the Corrosion Herrscher's corrosive power.
"Brother Wang Chen, there is a black aura coming out of it. It's the power of the guy who eroded the Herrscher." Lin on the side also obviously noticed this and said.
Although Theresa and others could not see the hidden black air like Wang Chen and Lin, their intuition told them that there was something wrong with this gap.
"Let me try it first." Wang Chen held the feather and slowly approached the gap in the illusion in front of him that was emitting a strange black aura. He secretly spread the power of the holy mark throughout his body and quietly activated the power of control to prevent any traps from appearing.
When the feather approached, the gap in the illusion naturally opened up like the previous gap, revealing the illusion scene at the moment. Wang Chen observed that although the gap was opened, there was no trap or erosion method as imagined. It was just that the picture was covered by black air, and he could not see what kind of illusion scene he and others were facing.
"Such a strong corrosive force, it's simply mental pollution." Colorless Brilliant Fire frowned and said, and the stronger people present all had this feeling. Now that the gap has been opened, the strong corrosive force can be clearly felt by everyone present, causing headaches and dizziness.
"Why is this illusion like this... Could it be that Fu Hua's consciousness in this illusion has been eroded by the Herrscher? Otherwise, why would the illusion become like this?"
Theresa said worriedly that none of the illusions they had encountered before were completely covered by the corrosive force like the one before them.
"Aibo, is there any way to remove the corrosive force above? If we go in rashly, we will probably be eroded by the corrosive force as well." said Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple.
"I'll try." Wang Chen began to inject his dominance into it, removing the corrosive power that covered the illusion. In fact, Wang Chen had the "Pure White Silk" ability he learned from Muse, which could better neutralize the corrosive power. But Wang Chen did not intend to show this trump card now, in case the Corrosive Herrscher had a countermeasure. He had the dominance power, and the other party had already known it, so he still used the dominance power to remove the corrosive power.
Soon, the corrosive force on the illusion was cleared by Wang Chen's control power. However, Wang Chen's face looked worse and worse. It was not because the Corrosive Herrscher had left any tricks to cause any damage to Wang Chen, but after Wang Chen continued to clear the black air on the screen, the contents of the illusion gradually became clear in front of Wang Chen. The picture that was playing in the illusion was the root cause of Wang Chen's bad face.
Not only Wang Chen, but everyone else was horrified after seeing the scenes in the illusion, and Theresa's face turned pale and she was filled with shock and anger.
In the picture, six women and one man surrounded Fu Hua in the Taixu Temple that was seen not long ago. First, a cold-haired woman with a sword in one hand hit Fu Hua's forehead directly and pierced through her skull. Then, at the same moment, the other six people also drew their swords, and the six swords also hit Fu Hua's body in various places.
Her right foot was broken at the ankle, her hands were broken, her internal organs were destroyed, and her heart was broken in more than ten places. With such fatal injuries, Fu Hua fell in a pool of blood and closed her eyes. Fu Hua "died" in front of everyone.
But this was not enough. Those people seemed to be afraid that Fu Hua was not dead yet, so they cut Fu Hua into pieces along the wound. Their methods were bloody and cruel, and even made Mei, who had a rather soft personality, retch uncontrollably.
