Even genuine premium-grade divine gods could end up being trapped in the maze.
If the bead produced all the illusions, then there was no doubt that it was an amazing magic treasure.
Meanwhile, Austin was already at the Major Achievement Stage of the law of illusion.
Both the aura the bead emitted, as well as the energy of illusion it carried, was a great temptation to Austin.
"I must get my hands on it."
Austin's eyes lit up in excitement as he made his decision.
In the blink of an eye, he reached out his hand and tried to grab the bead.
However, right when he tightened his grip around the bead, he grabbed nothing but thin air.
For a moment, he could only stare before he quickly used his spiritual sense to check it and confirm that the bead was real.
However, whenever he tried to touch it, there was nothing for him to touch.
No matter how many times he tried, he ended up passing through the bead although he could see that it was floating right before his eyes.
He couldn't get a hold of the bead.
'That's awesome.
I'm one hundred percent sure that the bead is right there, but illusions must be confusing me from judging its location.'
Austin mused for a moment and quickly figured out the reason why he couldn't touch the bead.
He had reached the Major Achievement Stage of cultivating the law of illusion after all, therefore he was quick when it came to the law of illusion.
"If I want to get it, I'll have to find its exact position."
Austin unleashed the law of illusion to perceive the bead.
Runes of illusion came out from his head and flew towards the bead.
Chains made from the law of illusion wrapped around the bead like ribbons.
Time slowly passed around them.
By that point, the three mermaids remained anxiously waiting for Austin in a different place of the maze.
"Sally, it's been almost two days.
Maybe he already left the maze?"
One of the two other mermaids was reaching the end of her rope.
"Perhaps Austin thought we're a burden and left us behind.
How about we leave the maze first?"
the other mermaid asked.
"Be patient.
I don't think he'll leave us behind.
If he really thought we were a liability, he would've walked away when Elder Osbert was trying to kill us.
Anyway, he saved our lives.
Since he asked us to wait for him here, we will.
If he comes back to find us and we ended up leaving first, we probably won't have the chance to see him again,"
Sally comforted them.
"Fine."
The two other mermaids sighed but nodded in agreement.
All three of them were known as the most gorgeous women from the mermaid race in the Heaven Beast Valley. Lots of admirers desired to have their hand.
Men always racked their brains to get their attention in an attempt to get closer to any one of them. But now they were worried that a man might leave them behind.
If it got out, the men in the Heaven Beast Valley would be jealous of Austin.
Meanwhile, various people from powerful forces unleashed their spiritual sense to examine their surroundings outside the maze.
They wanted to bypass the maze so that they could continue to explore the Land of Outlaw.
After all, they were here for treasures.
No one wanted to wait around outside the maze just to wait for Austin.
