Chapter 1049 – Tricky Trickery
In this world, other than Loki himself, Si Xiaonan was definitely the person who knew him the most.
Loki’s Divine Ruins, the [Trickery Trickery] numbered 009 by the Night’s Watch, whose sequence is very high even among the Divine Ruins, this Divine Ruin is able to weave a “trickery” that is sufficient to deceive all things in the world, whether it is a person, a god, an object, or even reality that has already taken place, it can be rewritten through the “trickery”. “The ability to rewrite the world.
And there are only two flaws in this ability.
First, the “trick” itself must be logically sound.
Through trickery, [Trickery] can overwrite established facts with things that never happened, but this must be done in a way that ensures that the trickery is logically feasible. He can make a hen hatch from an egg into a rooster, but he can’t make an egg hatch into a piglet.
Secondly, it takes time to weave a ruse.
The time it takes to weave a “trick” is related to the object of deception. If the “trick” is only to deceive a mortal, it is no different from an instantaneous attack for Loki.
However, if the object of deception was an established fact, then it depended on how long ago the fact had occurred. Based on Si Xiaonan’s observation over the past few years, it seemed that Loki could only change things that had happened within fifteen seconds at most, and such a “trick” would also require a few seconds of time to weave.
Si Xiaonan stood within the large formation, looking back at the ripples in the void, her eyes flickering with a slight aura.
She was calculating the time.
From the time Loki reached out and touched the large formation to the time he passed through it, there was an interval of three point four six seconds …… and this was the time it took for Loki to weave a “ruse” to deceive a divine level formation.
Regardless of whether or not she could use it in the future, Si Xiaonan first memorized this data in her mind.
She had already memorized dozens of such data.
Loki’s gaze swept over the many Immortal Palaces towering before him, and he spoke in a deep voice:
”There are too many divine palaces in the Kunlun Void, it’s too much of a waste of time to look for them one by one ……”
Before the words fell, he took Si Xiaonan and transformed into a flash of black, flying rapidly towards the nearest Immortal Palace, and at the entrance of that Immortal Palace, dozens of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were lined up in long rows, carefully patrolling the surrounding area.
They did not notice that two black shadows had quietly arrived behind them.
Since Loki wasn’t willing to look for one Immortal Palace after another, then directly grabbing a stray fish and asking for directions was naturally the most convenient way.
The celestial soldier at the end of the list was holding a halberd and was walking forward with a solemn expression when a palm suddenly reached out from the nothingness behind him and silently grabbed at his neck.
But in the next moment, that palm lightly passed through the body of the Heavenly Soldier as if it was nothing.
”Eh?”
A soft eep came out from the nothingness.
Loki looked at his empty palm, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, he once again stretched out his palm and grabbed at another Heavenly Soldier.
He still didn’t touch the body of the heavenly soldier.
Loki frowned slightly and lowered his head in deep thought.
When Si Xiaonan on the side saw this scene, his eyes were also filled with puzzlement.
These Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were clearly standing right in front of their eyes, why couldn’t they touch them?
Loki’s eyes narrowed slightly as he bent down to pick up a stone from the ground and pinched it on his fingertips to scrutinize it.
A few seconds later, he sneered as if he had thought of something.
”I said why is the divine power here so dense, so it is like this …… Relying on a piece of time silhouette, it almost fooled all the divine kingdoms, this should be the concealment of the sea in the Great Summer’s scheme?”
”A time silhouette?” Si Xiaonan looked around.
”Everything you saw at the Peach Fest, as well as everything presented to us now, are all silhouettes of a certain period of time in the past in the Kunlun Void, a false impression that they intentionally exhibited to you agents.
Previously, I felt that something was wrong, the Kunlun Void of the Great Xia has always been mysterious to the extreme, so how did it happen that at this critical time, it allowed someone to peek into a corner of the heavens and expose its own position?
Great Xia did this to lure you agents who are trying to probe the bottom of the Great Xia God, and then used this time silhouette to send a false impression …… to all other divine nations that the Great Xia God is still stationed in Great Xia and is in a period of total victory.
From the very beginning, the Kunlun Void was a trap prepared for the four major god kingdoms.”
Loki paused and continued, “But since they weren’t in Da Xia, where exactly did they go?
If it was me ……”
Luo Ji seemed to have some sort of speculation in his heart, and the light in his eyes flickered.
When Si Xiaonan heard this, a heart sank.
If things were really as Loki had said, and the Great Summer was doing this to borrow the hands of them, its agents, to deliver false information to the other divine kingdoms, then Loki, the God of Trickery who had gotten mixed up in the situation, had become the variable in everything.
If he saw through the Great Summer God’s arrangement, then the Great Summer’s situation would be in danger.
Just as Si Xiaonan was worried, Loki raised his head, and his entire being seemed to be very pleasant, the corners of his mouth rising slightly as he said.
”Interesting ……”
Immediately afterward, as if he had sensed something, he turned his head to look into the distance.
A green shadow swept through the sky above the two of them and flew straight towards that Immortal Palace in the center, and Si Xiaonan fixed his eyes on it before realizing that it was a maid in a green dress.
Loki stared at the green-skirted maid for a moment, a strand of hair at his temples fluttered gently by the wind, and he raised an eyebrow.
”It’s not a false shadow?”
Without the slightest hesitation, he reached out and grabbed at the maid in the air, the green-skirted maid’s pupils suddenly shrunk, and in the next moment, she fell down from the air.
A palm instantly strangled her neck, and under the rotation of the sky, her entire person was stuck by this hand on top of a wall in the corner of the Immortal Palace.
The green-skirted maid let out a muffled grunt as wisps of blood spilled out from the corners of her mouth, her face pale and unimaginably pale.
Seeing this, Si Xiaonan’s eyes flashed with a tangle of colors, but still reached out and waved his hand, an invisible veil completely covered the corner of the Immortal Palace, and on top of the veil, a black aura flashed, and a “trick” was immediately attached to it.
The “Edgeless Veil” is the strongest forbidden ruin to conceal the breath, a few years ago Si Xiaonan was able to use it to block the breath of the “Shiva’s Grudge” from flowing out, and now with the addition of a “trick” to deceive the living beings, even the gods, less than the highest, will not be able to detect their existence.
The green-skirted maid endured the pain and opened her eyes, and in front of her was a pair of narrow eyes that were as cold as snakes.
”I heard that your Kunlun Void has a secret treasure?” Loki pinched the attendant’s neck with one hand and lifted it into midair against the wall, speaking faintly, “Where is it?”
The green-skirted maid clenched her lips and glared at Luo Ji, not saying a word.
”Forget it.” Loki shrugged, “I’d better ask in a different way.”
As the words fell, the right arm of Leng Xuan’s body, which was covered in snake scales, twisted strangely, and a tiny black snake head broke open from the center of the palm, violently drilling into the maid’s right ear and stirring directly into the brain.
Miserable screams resounded within the empty Immortal Palace.
