Tiger asked, puzzled, "Boss, what is this place?"
Chris Shelby shook his head with a bitter smile. "I don't know either!"
After arriving at this tomb, Chris Shelby found many things that defied his previous understanding.
Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy whispered to each other.
After a while, Peterson Abernathy coughed and said, "Chris Shelby, we just checked, and it seems this palace is another formation."
"A formation?"
Hearing this, Chris Shelby frowned. The previous chain trap formation in the tomb was still fresh in his memory. He didn't expect another formation this time.
Daniel Williams added, "Chris Shelby, we know you understand formations, but breaking this one might come at a cost. Whether we can enter the sixth palace depends on our luck!"
With that, Daniel Williams took the lead and walked forward. The others followed without hesitation.
After walking about a few hundred meters, the environment suddenly changed before their eyes. A massive volcano appeared in front of Chris Shelby and the others. The scorching heat made everyone's faces change drastically.
Chris Shelby frowned and said, "Don't be afraid; this should be an illusion formation. The volcano in front of us is just an illusion."
"An illusion formation?"
Hearing this, Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy looked at Chris Shelby with puzzled expressions.
Chris Shelby explained, "An illusion formation is similar to a trap formation. A trap formation traps people, while an illusion formation creates various illusions that can make people lose themselves without realizing it."
Meanwhile, Chris Shelby's face turned unusually grim because an illusion formation was even more terrifying than a trap formation. A trap formation might only trap someone, but an illusion formation could potentially kill them. Especially such a realistic illusion could drive someone mad.
Listening to Chris Shelby's explanation, Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy both looked serious.
Peterson Abernathy asked solemnly, "Chris Shelby, do you have any way to break this illusion formation?"
Chris Shelby shook his head. "This illusion formation is very intricate. We need to find the core points and break them all to dismantle the formation."
Hearing this, Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy wasted no time and immediately started searching for the core points.
As time passed, everyone was drenched in sweat. This formation was evidently left by master formation creators from the Terracotta period; it was not simple at all.
After half a day of searching, they finally found the core points. Once they broke them, the massive volcano vanished!
However, they had only advanced about a hundred meters and still had a long way to go before reaching the end of the palace.
Not long after Chris Shelby and the others left the volcano area, the environment changed again. This time, everyone's faces grew even more serious because this illusion was even more realistic than the last one. It was hard to tell if it was real or fake.
Everyone remained silent as they continued following Chris Shelby.
Soon, they encountered a massive abyss. Instantly, everyone stopped in their tracks. The bottom of the abyss was not visible; falling into it would surely result in death.
Moreover, the abyss seemed so real that it was hard to discern whether it was an illusion or reality. No one dared to proceed because falling into the abyss would mean certain death.
Chris Shelby gritted his teeth and said, "This is an illusion formation; we just need to walk across!"
