Chapter 1667: Chapter 1667: Illusion? Or Reality?

Just at the moment when the Nine Yang Mysterious Heaven Needle Technique was forming.

Chen Feng felt as though something suddenly gripped his throat, making him unable to breathe for a moment.

A terrifying sensation of suffocation descended upon him.

Not only that.

In this moment.

Chen Feng felt as though the eighty-one points pierced by the Silver Needle were all about to burst open.

The pain of being torn apart alive.

Was hundreds of times stronger than the pain of the Silver Needle piercing just moments ago.

Even Chen Feng couldn’t help but change his expression.

Gradually.

The intense pain grew worse.

And the sensation of suffocation also intensified.

Chen Feng was almost unable to feel his breath.

If this continued, he’d either die from pain or suffocate to death!

Chen Feng tried to open his mouth wide to take a few more breaths of fresh air.

But just then.

He suddenly found that his body couldn’t muster any strength.

His whole body felt as though it was exhausted, lacking even the strength to open his mouth.

He even felt that this body no longer belonged to him, completely unmanageable.

Suffocation, intense pain, powerlessness!

At this moment.

Chen Feng truly felt somewhat worse than death.

However.

Chen Feng persisted.

At the very least, he could still withstand it.

But.

He had underestimated the side effects brought by the Nine Yang Mysterious Heaven Needle Technique.

Gradually.

The intense pain on Chen Feng’s body grew more severe, the suffocation sensation becoming stronger.

And along with the intense pain, suffocation, and powerlessness.

Various other discomforts surfaced too.

Sudden cessation of heartbeat.

Violent stomach spasms.

Liver hardening and so on...

Pains that ordinary people simply couldn’t endure.

All focused on Chen Feng at once.

Yet Chen Feng couldn’t control his body.

The despair and sense of powerlessness nearly drove Chen Feng to the brink of collapse.

At this moment.

His consciousness started to blur, his mind began to grow chaotic.

Gradually, Chen Feng felt everything before his eyes starting to become illusory, his eyelids heavy, finally tumbling headlong toward the ground...

This was a deserted island.

Chen Feng opened his eyes, rubbing his head, then sat up from the ground.

All around him, no sign of others.

Only a few sea birds skimmed low over the sea.

Chen Feng gazed bewildered at his surroundings.

Dark sea water, dark red sand.

And on the beach, littered with stones of all shapes, and various unknown plants.

Chen Feng watched everything and felt increasingly familiar here.

Because he remembered he had been to this island before.

It was the same island he once led the Dragon Group Green Dragon Team onto.

Now, it should be called Tianqi Island!

Because the Tianqi Holy Pearl was discovered on this island!

But, how could he appear here?

Suddenly, Chen Feng’s face filled with confusion.

Because he distinctly recalled that he should be on a mountain near an unknown town around Huaxia Coast.

The Devouring Sky Python was fighting a Black Robe man fiercely.

While he was executing the Nine Yang Mysterious Heaven Needle Technique taught by the old Daoist to increase his strength and aid the Devouring Sky Python.

Yet now, how come he is back on Tianqi Island?

Could it be that all before him is an illusion?

Thinking this.

Chen Feng’s mind moved, preparing to use the Eye of Tianqi to dispel this illusion.

Only to see a purple light flash in Chen Feng’s eyes.

The next moment.

Chen Feng froze.

Because, even after opening the Eye of Tianqi, the surroundings remained unchanged.

He still stayed on Tianqi Island; everything was so real!

"It shouldn’t be; the Eye of Tianqi can see through all illusions, but now I’ve already opened it. How is it still Tianqi Island before my eyes?"

Chen Feng muttered to himself, confused.

Then he quickly used the Eye of Tianqi to scan his surroundings again.

The scene still hadn’t changed.

Everything remained, everything was so real.

As if he truly stayed in this world.

"What’s going on? Could this not be an illusion?"

Chen Feng was dumbfounded, disbelief written all over his face.

"Hahaha!"

Just then, an elderly laugh sounded beside Chen Feng.

Chen Feng’s expression changed; he hurriedly turned towards the sound.

A white-haired, white-bearded elder in a Daoist robe, holding a whisk, was stepping across the beach, smiling as he approached.

Upon seeing this.

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

Because that elder, wasn’t someone else but the old Daoist!

"Senior!"

Chen Feng quickly stood up and went to greet him.

"Young man, you finally awoke!"

The old Daoist looked at Chen Feng, smiling as he asked.

"Did I sleep for a long time?"

Chen Feng looked at the old Daoist, asking with a puzzled expression.

"A very long time, if you count it carefully, it has been almost four years!"

The old Daoist smiled as he spoke.

"Four years?"

Hearing this, Chen Feng was stunned.

Because it was four years ago.

He led the Green Dragon Team onto Tianqi Island. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

He vividly remembers what happened afterward.

Because he and the Green Dragon Team first discovered the Tianqi Holy Pearl, intending to leave with it.

Resulting in encirclement by various foreign forces on this beach.

The Green Dragon Team was wiped out.

Leaving Chen Feng alone to flee with the Tianqi Holy Pearl.

Later.

Chen Feng returned to Huaxia, where his grandfather restricted his movements at Coastal.

He was then tasked by his grandfather to fulfill a marriage agreement.

That’s how he met Lin Mengyao and others, subsequently establishing the Chen Family, cultivating to the Heaven Rank, resisting Tie Sect, and much more.

Even the old Daoist was someone Chen Feng met in Coastal!

Yet now.

The old Daoist in front of him claimed he had slept for four years.

Could it be these four years.

He never left Tianqi Island, always sleeping here?

And everything that happened in these four years was merely a dream?

Thinking this.

Chen Feng was startled by his thoughts, quickly asking the old Daoist, "Senior, do you mean that in these four years, I did nothing, just slept on this beach?"

"That’s right; you inherited the Tianqi Holy Pearl, received Emperor Tianqi’s legacy. But since your body and soul were too weak to instantly withstand the massive energy from the Tianqi Holy Pearl, after accepting the legacy, you fell into a deep coma for four years. Now that the power has fully merged with your body, you can finally try to control it!"

The old Daoist nodded, smiling lightly as he spoke.
