Wu Shattered Star River

Jiang Han had been wandering in the Heavenly Demon Cave for a month. He had been forcing himself to calm down, but after a month, his heart was no longer at peace and he had become extremely irritable.

It wasn't that Jiang Han's willpower was insufficient!

Rather, he discovered that the demonic energy had been constantly affecting his state of mind. The demonic energy was invading his soul at all times. Although he would cleanse it every once in a while, he found himself becoming increasingly irritable, anxious, uncomfortable, and depressed…

Also, was he experiencing hallucinations? For example, a charming woman would appear ahead, but when he approached, he would find nothing.

For example, a swarm of green-faced, fanged insects would suddenly fly towards him, but when he was fully prepared, those insects would pass right through his body…

He finally understood why the Demoness Queen said that he would likely go mad within five years. If he were only trapped in a secret realm, he wouldn't go mad even if trapped for a hundred years.

The key was that this damned place was too strange. The constant hallucinations were terrifying, and it was a huge torment to his mind.

"Giggle giggle!"

Silvery laughter echoed from ahead. Jiang Han looked in the direction of the sound and vaguely saw several women chasing each other.

He subconsciously flew towards them and soon saw four Demoness women. The animal skin dresses they wore were even shorter, and the wraps on their chests were even thinner, exuding seduction.

Seeing Jiang Han, the women not only didn't run but instead shyly covered their bodies, striking various seductive poses.

Jiang Han's heart was like still water. He knew these were all hallucinations, but since there was a free show, he didn't mind and simply watched.

The women glanced at Jiang Han a few times, then slowly flew towards him and circled around him. One of the women boldly reached out and touched Jiang Han's back.

"So real…"

Jiang Han felt a jade-like hand gently stroking his back. He closed his eyes and savored the feeling.

Soon, two more hands reached out. At that moment, Jiang Han felt his heart flutter and his body react.

He knew this was a hallucination, and he couldn't follow the hallucination. Otherwise, if he were to indulge in pleasure with these illusory Demoness women, he would sink deeper and deeper, and the problems with his soul would become greater and greater.

"Boom!"

He decisively attacked, condensing several large handprints and slamming them towards the nearby Demoness women.

"Ah—"

"Lord, why are you killing us!"

"Boom!"

Accompanied by several screams, the four women were blasted to death by Jiang Han, their flesh and blood splattering everywhere.

The severed limbs floated nearby, and the eyes of two of the women were still wide open, filled with horror and disbelief.

"Ugh…"

Jiang Han looked at the floating flesh and blood around him. He slowly walked towards a severed corpse, reached out and grabbed a severed arm. He found the arm to be incredibly real, and the sensation in his hand was the same as a real one.

He reached out with his other hand, dipped it in the blood, and put it in his mouth. Feeling the bloody taste in his mouth, a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

"It's real, they're alive?"

He opened his eyes wide, his face showing shock.

Everything he felt convinced him that these four Demoness women were real, living people.

He thought it was a hallucination, so he cruelly killed four living people?

"咻!"

His body shot out into the distance, and after flying for hundreds of miles, he turned back again.

As a result, those corpses were still there. He pondered for a moment, then took out another spatial ring and collected all the corpses, flying away again.

After running wildly for tens of thousands of miles, Jiang Han sat down and began to expel the demonic energy from his mind.

After expelling all the demonic energy from his soul, he took two deep breaths and then took out the spatial ring.

"Buzz~"

A burst of white light flashed, and the severed limbs in the spatial ring flashed out. The two heads floated in front of Jiang Han, the horror and disbelief in their four eyes still very obvious.

"They're real…"

Jiang Han's heart was completely in chaos, and at the same time, endless regret and self-blame welled up in his heart.

He didn't dare to look at these corpses again, and his body turned into a stream of light and shot away into the distance.

But those two pairs of unclosed eyes kept flashing before his eyes, making his heart even more painful.

He didn't know what to do. After exploring for a month, he hadn't found anything.

He hadn't found any array patterns, hadn't found the existence of any magic arrays. He couldn't find an exit, he couldn't leave this strange place.

"Buzz buzz buzz~"

A swarm of green-faced, fanged insects flew towards him, quickly flying towards him. He completely ignored them, because many insects had flown over before, and they had all passed through his body, all hallucinations.

"Ugh…"

Soon he realized something was wrong, because these insects didn't pass through his body, but instead clung to his body.

Because he hadn't encountered any danger during this time, Jiang Han hadn't activated the Sea God Seal to release a light shield, so these insects had all crawled onto his body and began to gnaw at his flesh.

"Hiss hiss!"

Feeling the pain coming from his flesh, Jiang Han looked in disbelief at the insects on his body.

He didn't rush to kill these insects, but instead raised his hand and looked at the insects crawling on his hand. Seeing these insects constantly gnawing at the muscles on his hand, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Was this actually a hallucination, or was it real?

If it was real, why was the feeling of pain so real? And his flesh and blood were being eaten away bit by bit, this feeling was incredibly real and didn't seem like a hallucination.

"Boom!"

Jiang Han condensed streams of True Demon power, killing the insects one by one. These insects' defenses weren't strong, they were just good at gnawing.

The insects were easily killed one by one, and finally only one was left, held in Jiang Han's hand.

These insects were the size of a fist, had six legs, and their mouths were filled with exceptionally sharp fangs. At this moment, held in Jiang Han's hand, it kept twisting and turning, and its big mouth kept biting at Jiang Han's fingers.

Jiang Han pulled off the insect's legs one by one, and finally strangled the insect to death.

He looked at the insect's legs in his hand, and then looked at the tattered blood holes on his body, and he fell into confusion again.

"Is this actually a hallucination, or is it real?"

He couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion anymore. At this moment, a deep sense of fear welled up in his heart.

"You'll probably go mad within five years, and you'll definitely die if you don't come out in ten years!"

The words of the Demoness Queen echoed in his mind. At this moment, he suddenly believed it. He had only been in here for a little over a month, and he already felt like he was going to go mad.

If he really went mad, and these insects were real, then he would definitely be eaten and eventually become a skeleton.

"That's not right—"

Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of something!

The Demoness Queen said that many Demonesses died inside every year. How did these Demonesses die? It was very likely that they were eaten by insects.

Since they were eaten, then skeletons should be left behind, right?

He had been flying inside for so long, but he hadn't found a single skeleton.
