Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

These shadows appeared to be real and not mere hallucinations.

Zen shook his head and stared at them. However, they all gathered back together instantly.

Surely, they must have all come, somehow, from the people they resembled, and they were now like overflowing water, about to spread out at any time.

The strange visions persisted for a few moments more before Zen finally broke out of his stupor.

Fuxi, the Snake Goddess, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the others all gathered around him, concern written across their faces.

At Zen's level of cultivation, he couldn't possibly become this disoriented unless he was confronted with a powerful soul pressure.

But who in Zen's inner world was that powerful?

"Zen, are you all right?" the Snake Goddess asked worriedly.

As the visions faded away, Zen came to his senses. He looked around in a daze. "I saw numerous shadows just now."

"Shadows? You must be mistaken. They were probably hallucinations," Fuxi replied, furrowing his brows. Zen must be so fatigued facing so much pressure that he was starting to see things.

"Hallucinations?"

Zen frowned. "They didn't seem to be hallucinations, or afterimages. They seemed real."

"What?"

The Snake Goddess, Fuxi, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi stared at Zen, not comprehending.

However, Zen became more and more convinced he was right. He pointed at the distance. "I saw twelve Snake Goddesses, ten Fuxis, eleven Pear Hills, and six Eastern Emperor Taiyis. They were really there."

Fuxi gave Zen a blank look. Finally, he burst out, "Crazy! You've gone crazy!"

"I haven't," Zen said calmly. "There must be something wrong with this place, not me!"
