Holding the dazzling precious bead in its entirety, Austin looked at the queen lying between the two shells, carrying the weight of
her body.
Austin felt the energy of the bead, emanating and channeling its close bond to the queen. In a little while, the oneness of the two
becmore evident—the bead belonged to the queen, and the queen belonged to the bead.
Witnessing such a process, Austin felt that he must also take the queen with him if he wanted to take the bead.
If he didn't do so, it would be very difficult to take the bead away. The bead might not even survive without the queen beside it.
With such a strong bond between the two, it would be nearly impossible for the bead to be separated from the queen.
Austin carefully ran his spiritual energy, making it flow toward the queen, yet he could not tell if she was still alive.
The queen lay quietly in a graceful position. With nothing but a thin layer of gauze around her body, she was almost half naked.
Her curves were clearly defined along the edges, and her features were faintly yet pleasantly highlighted. A string of intoxicating
fragrance wafted from her body constantly. She was indeed a beautiful woman.
"That's it, you are coming with me!"
Austin finally made the decision. He could not resist the temptation of acquiring the bead so he devised ways to take the queen
with him as well.
"There's no harm in trying to refine this bead with the power that | already have."
Austin carefully released his power into the bead, hoping that something good would cout of it.
"The Hallucination Bead!" The ncto him as he ran his spiritual energy to check it.
At that moment, Austin was convinced of what the bead was and what it could do.
Strongly determined, Austin released more of his spiritual power into the bead, refining it further.
After working all day, trying refining the bead, Austin stopped and simply gave up.
"Well, that's a disappointment. | can't completely refine it. It obviously has something to do with it sharing a strong bond with the
queen.
It behaves as if its entire being is a part of the queen.
But, as far as the bead alone is concerned, | am able to control it for the tbeing.
It seems like the queen has granteda kind of permission to take part in controlling the Hallucination Bead on her behalf,"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAustin murmured to himself, bewildered at what he had just realized. What did the queen want? Why did she even let Austin touch
the bead, let alone control it?
Austin held the Hallucination Bead in his hand, running it between his fingers and across his palms, wanting to decipher whatever
secrets it seemed to hold.
Suddenly, "Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of loud explosions cut through the quiet air. A tirade of louder noises quickly followed and overwhelmed the maze which
began to shake violently. It seemed that a terrible earthquake was taking place.
With the intensity of the vibrations, everything in the maze was shaken up and was thrown all over as if caught in the middle of a
strong tornado. Only a divine intervention could save it from being reduced to ruins.
The strong foundations of the palaces, houses, streets, shops and squares began to crumble, little by little, and started collapsing
in chunks of what used to be roofs, walls, and ceilings. After stime, what was left was nothing more than minute particles of
sand and dust, effectively clouding up the surroundings into zero visibility. Everything broke, including the illusions and
hallucinations that were densely packed in the space. They all becdisintegrated and turned into fragments of hallucination.
The colorful fragments flew like snowflakes being blown away in a storm, filling every corner of the space, confusing its seekers of
truth on whether they were true or false.
To Austin's surprise, every single chunk, fragment, and particle of whatever disintegrated, bonded together and rushed toward the
Hallucination Bead, like metallic dust to a magnetic ball. They were all sucked into the bead in an instant, leaving no trace of chaos
behind.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Another round of deafening and earth-shattering explosions followed shortly after.
This time, the whole maze itself began collapsing and turning into a torrent of fragments of hallucination. The pieces merged into
numerous big rivers while every bit of length of the stream was swallowed in by the Hallucination Bead akin to a helpless massive
whale!
"Aaargh!"
Three mermaid race girls were trapped and waiting for help at a small remaining corner of the rapidly disintegrating maze.
Watching everything get destroyed in front of their eyes, they all screamed with their screeching voices as their faces turned pale.
They realized that everything around them was rapidly being reduced to dust and was turning into fragments of hallucination that
seethed with violent momentum, losing their grip on reality.
Fortunately, the loose fragments did not attack them. And the mermaid race girls had tto gather and rushed out of there
quickly.
"Oh my gooood! What is going on here?!"
The three mermaid race girls screamed, stunned and in utter disbelief.
Standing in the middle of the endless fragments of hallucination, Austin was able to harvest a lot during that moment of confusion
and chaos.
His spiritual sense force was enhanced just in tdue to the fragments of hallucination that flowed to the bead!
The sphere of spiritual sense in his Soul Sea was slowly and endlessly spinning on its own. It was getting larger and larger, giving
off sonorous sounds like that of a huge bell. The spiritual energy was like seawater, pouring from an endless sea as its source.
By this time, Austin could feel his spiritual sense power gathering more and more resources. As expected, he in turn became
stronger, feeling its energy radiating, waiting for it to actualize. If such energy was launched out all of a sudden, the Hallucination
Bead could directly attack the enemy and cause great harm to those around it!
What a defining moment!
When the spiritual sense power was released, it could only be used to attack the enemy's Soul Sea and spiritual soul.
It could not harm the enemy directly. Take the Flying Swordsmanship for example; the spiritual sense power could command and
direct the sword to inflict massive damage on the enemy, but in the end it was still the flying sword that cut his enemy.
