Chapter 100 Unique Ability, Imaginary Labyrinth?
The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this.
The next second, two fiery clouds appeared on the faces of the girls, and their gazes toward Zhu Yanluo on the screen became subtle.
They all understood what Xue Youyou meant.
If Zhu Yanluo accomplished this "feat" knowing the conditions for the evolution of the fantastical Loulan—that would be called a gifted talent.
If Zhu Yanluo fulfilled this condition by accident without knowing anything about it—then it can only be described as astonishing.
"YuYu...where did you get this strange knowledge from?"
Meng Yanqing blushed, and her voice trembled slightly.
"I have read extensively."
Xue Youyou answered without blushing or panting, in a very serious manner.
In fact, Xue Youyou learned this by chance from a god-like player in the game "Ten Thousand Beasts Contract" in her previous life.
The divine being lost to her in the bet and couldn't afford to pay up immediately, so he could only use information about the evolution of the fantastical Loulan to settle the debt.
At first, Xue Youyou thought the other party was just talking nonsense and playing a trick on her, but after the person solemnly swore an oath in the name of a beast tamer, she had no choice but to believe that there really were such outrageous evolutionary conditions in this world.
What she didn't expect was that after arriving in this parallel beast-taming world, there were also amazing people who successfully cultivated the Imaginary Loulan.
It can only be said that there are extraordinary people in every world.
Xue Youyou could only sigh inwardly, realizing she probably wouldn't even be able to have a dream like this in her entire life. Even if she occasionally had some strange dreams, they would definitely involve her being close to beautiful girls.
"Where can I find a book like this... Let me take a look too..."
Meng Yanqing muttered something under her breath but didn't press the matter further, assuming that Xue Youyou had only gleaned some obscure knowledge from her family's heirlooms. After all, she had long suspected that Xue Youyou was likely the eldest daughter of a fallen noble family.
While everyone was still reeling from the shock, Lu Yuan was the first to recover and hurriedly asked Xue Youyou, "Then... just how powerful is this Fantasy Loulan?"
Xue Youyou replied without hesitation, "She's at least ten times stronger than Fairy Mystery Crystal."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Lu Yuan opened her mouth: "Ten times? Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"
It's important to know that when a fully evolved form evolves into an ultimate form, the overall increase in strength is only about one hundred times.
Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't believe her, Xue Youyou didn't mince words and said bluntly, "Fifty times...it might even be close to a hundred times."
Lu Yuan was immediately dumbfounded: "Isn't that almost equivalent to a miniature Ultimate level?"
Xue Youyou pursed her lips slightly and nodded gently: "I can only say that it is even better than before. Kongxiang Loulan's ability is very unique and can be considered one of the best among trillions of pet beasts."
"If you encounter this for the first time without any preparation, it will be very difficult to fight."
Xue Youyou has a lot to say on this point.
That divine being from her past life caused her quite a bit of trouble, almost killing her at first sight.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned to look at the screen.
At this moment, the battle situation on the screen is undergoing an unexpected change.
Lin Yueyao led the second team of Lanzhi Academy and surprisingly defeated four members of Aomori Academy in succession, gaining the upper hand on the field.
Immediately afterwards, the five of them banded together and made their way to Aomori-in's birthplace without hesitation.
As Lin Yueyao had expected, Zhu Yanluo remained alone at the spawn point, seemingly calmly awaiting their arrival.
Just as Luo Yan analyzed before the match, the only way to beat Aomori Institution was to take advantage of their underestimation of their opponent.
Based on past competition habits, when facing opponents who are significantly weaker than herself, Zhu Yanluo usually does not take action herself immediately. Instead, she lets her four teammates go up to gain experience first, while she stays behind as a backup.
Therefore, defeating the four first, and then having all five of them join forces to besiege Zhu Yanluo, was the only opportunity they could seize.
However, when the five fully-formed pet beasts—the Moon-Chasing Fox, the Golden Scorpion, the Dragon-Bearded Jellyfish, the Twilight Cicada, and the Treasure-Knowing Toad—surrounded Zhu Yanluo, not a trace of panic appeared on her face.
On the contrary, she appeared calm and composed, exuding an air of ease and confidence.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhu Yanluo simply snapped her fingers lightly.
next second.
Centered on her, a pink light suddenly spread outwards, its speed far exceeding everyone's reaction limits. In the blink of an eye, the pink light enveloped all five members of the Blue Lotus Courtyard's second team and their pet beasts.
Through the live stream screen, amidst the pervasive pink mist, the outline of a pet that no one had ever seen before seemed to emerge.
At this moment, Lin Yueyao, who was in the game, suddenly realized that all her teammates had disappeared.
As far as she could see, all that remained were herself, the Moon Chasing Fox, and Zhu Yanluo opposite her.
What's going on here?!
Alarm bells rang in Lin Yueyao's mind, and her vigilance instantly reached its peak.
Could it be an illusion?
It doesn't seem like it.
She was still standing in the same spot as before, and the relative positions of Zhuiyue Tianhu, herself, and Zhu Yanluo had not changed. However, the figures of her four teammates had vanished without a trace, and a strange pink mist had appeared around them.
Just as Lin Yueyao was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Zhu Yanluo spoke up, her tone relaxed as if she were chatting casually: "Don't be nervous, this is not an illusion, but the mental demon labyrinth of the Imaginary Loulan."
"The Labyrinth of Inner Demons?" Lin Yueyao's heart sank, and a strong sense of unease welled up within her.
This was the first time she had ever heard this term.
Zhu Yanlu smiled slyly and coaxed, "That's right, the Imaginary Loulan can construct a thousand different imaginary mazes, and the Inner Demon Maze is just one of them. But don't worry, the rules are very simple—as long as you pass the test of the Inner Demon Maze, you've defeated me. This is the battle law of Imaginary Loulan."
Under Zhu Yanluo's seductive persuasion, Lin Yueyao indeed took the bait.
"What exactly is the trial in that labyrinth of inner demons?"
Lin Yueyao subconsciously pressed for an answer.
Zhu Yanluo covered her mouth and chuckled: "Hehe, the Inner Demon Maze, as the name suggests, is meant to test your inner demons. In a moment, the maze will project your deepest fears. The projected object will possess one-tenth of its real-world strength. Once you defeat it, you'll have passed the maze test and naturally defeated me."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yueyao's expression changed drastically: "Does that mean even ultimate forms can be projected?"
"This is a maze, not reality, nor an illusion; it has its own independent rules."
Zhu Yanluo's voice was unhurried: "Let alone the ultimate form, even more powerful beings can be projected into the maze once you have witnessed them."
Well then, good luck!
After Zhu Yanluo finished speaking, her figure was gently shrouded in pink mist and vanished without a trace in an instant.
Looking at the increasingly thick fog ahead, Lin Yueyao felt a chill run down her spine.
How can someone possess such an unreasonable ability?
The ultimate form possesses one-tenth of the power.
Does she... have a chance to win?
Just as Lin Yueyao was frantically speculating in her mind what form the ultimate experience would take, a series of heavy footsteps, as if shaking the earth, suddenly came from the thick fog ahead.
Is it coming?
Lin Yueyao stared intently ahead.
However, the moment the pink mist slowly dispersed to both sides, what first caught her eye was an indescribably huge jade foot.
How is that possible?!
Lin Yueyao suddenly looked up and followed the jade foot upwards—the body, stretching for thousands of meters, almost completely filled the view of the entire maze.
Her pupils dilated violently, and her mouth opened wide uncontrollably.
The object of the projected fear... was none other than Yuki Yuuyu's—the Yuki-onna from the Goddess of the Sea!!
What's the point of fighting?!
Lin Yueyao's legs went weak, and she sat down on the ground with a thud.
