Chapter 52 A Basket of Ginseng Fruit
"Master Demon, are you planning to...?"

Mo Ying was a little confused.

Zhang Qian stepped forward and came directly to the tall ginseng fruit tree.

"It's exactly the same as the real thing. It's really interesting."

Reaching out and patting the tree trunk, Zhang Qian discovered that the ginseng fruit tree in front of him was extremely real no matter from which angle he looked at it. This was the power of the demon.

Looking around, around the ginseng fruit tree, there were all the innate spiritual roots from the ancient times that Zhang Qian remembered, including the five elements spiritual fruits, the star fruit trees, and the Huangzhong plum. If it weren't for the Heavenly Demon Pagoda covering Zhang Qian's head, blocking all the Heavenly Demon illusions, he would have been drooling at this moment.

As Zhang Qian's thought moved, the Heavenly Demon Pagoda shook, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed. In his eyes, there were no longer all kinds of innate spiritual roots. These spiritual roots were clearly ferocious demons. All the demons looked at Zhang Qian with burning eyes, wishing they could pounce on him and tear him into pieces.

Zhang Qian didn't care about these demons. He restrained the power of the Demon Pagoda. The demon illusion reappeared. He stretched out his hand lightly and picked a ginseng fruit.

Whoosh!
The strange thing is that this ginseng fruit withered and turned into ashes.

"Hey, it's actually so real!"

In Zhang Qian's memory, ginseng fruit falls when it meets gold, withers when it meets wood, melts when it meets water, burns when it meets fire, and dies when it meets soil.

He picked the ginseng fruits directly with his hands, and they withered and turned into ashes. The illusion of the devil could be so real that it really opened Zhang Qian's eyes.

After thinking about it, Zhang Qian took off his Taoist robe, rolled it towards the ginseng fruit tree, and directly swept down all the ginseng fruits on the tree. He wrapped them with his Taoist robe, and the ginseng fruits did not change any other way.

His Taoist robe was not among the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, so he could naturally roll the ginseng fruit down.

Picking up a ginseng fruit, Zhang Qian took a light sniff, an intoxicated look on his face.

"It smells so good!"

This is an indescribable fruity fragrance. Just smelling it makes people feel extremely satisfied. All worries are completely forgotten, and there is only endless satisfaction in the heart.

"Let me have a taste of what it tastes like."

Click!
After taking a big bite, the ginseng fruit melts in your mouth and becomes a stream of warm water that nourishes all things.

Gudong!

As soon as he swallowed it, Zhang Qian closed his eyes and felt refreshed all over his body. This feeling was more wonderful than any feeling Zhang Qian could remember.

A full quarter of an hour passed before Zhang Qian opened his eyes again.

"This feeling is indescribable. It satisfies all the beautiful fantasies in the world!"

Although Zhang Qian knew deep down in his heart that the ginseng fruit was fake, this indescribable feeling he had was not fake at all, and he could not sense any falsehood at all.

After finishing the ginseng fruit in his hand, Zhang Qian smacked his lips and murmured, "I don't know what the real ginseng fruit tastes like, but this fake ginseng fruit is incredible. After eating it, I feel like all my fantasies are satisfied."

"Master Demon, this fruit tree is just the manifestation of the Second Palace Heavenly Demon Guardian. If you want to eat it, I can also make it for you, but this fruit tree is fake."

The demon shadow in the pagoda saw Zhang Qian so intoxicated and spoke hurriedly.

Zhang Qian shook his head. "Of course I know that the wonderful feeling I just had was all a false illusion. But even if it was an illusion, this wonderful feeling was not fake. Now think about it, I only need to raise a demon, and I can have whatever I want to eat. Tsk tsk, people avoid demons and regard them as scourges, but they are of infinite use to me."

Zhang Qian has the Heavenly Demon Pagoda in his hand. As long as he subdues the Heavenly Demon in front of him, he can have whatever he wants to eat in the future. Even if it is all fake, the wonderful feeling is real. "Let me taste the innate peach again."

Zhang Qian picked a huge peach from the nearby peach tree and swallowed it in two or three bites. The taste of the peach was different, icy and cool. After eating it, he felt as if his whole body was purified inside and out, without any part of him being unclear.

"Haha, I'm a little reluctant to kill them. Well, I'll just leave the life of the Second Palace Guardian and keep Demon Shadow company."

After tasting the ginseng fruit and the innate peach, the pagoda above Zhang Qian's head moved, dispelling all the demonic illusions before his eyes.

If Zhang Qian did not have the pagoda in his hand, if someone else came and ate one of the fruits, he would be immediately immersed in the endless illusions of the devil and would be unable to extricate himself. He would eat here endlessly. If no one led him out, he would eat until the end of his life and die here.

This second house is much more terrifying than the first house.

hum!
The Demonic Pagoda shook, and the magnificent demonic truth swept out, covering the entire orchard with a supreme majesty.

Swish, swish, swish...!
Following a series of light noises, all the fruit trees turned into demonic shadows that were neither real nor illusory.

"receive!"

With a low roar, the Demon Pagoda emitted an inexplicable suction force, and all the demons in the second palace were involuntarily taken into the Demon Pagoda.

"What is this? You clearly ate the fruit, how is it possible that you are not affected by the illusion?"

The guard of the Second Palace bared his fangs and claws, trying to break free from the Heavenly Demon Pagoda's suction force, but it was in vain. He could only shout out in frustration.

Zhang Qian would not explain to him. The power of the pagoda was unleashed and all the demons were suppressed.

As long as they entered the pagoda and were suppressed, these demons instantly became Zhang Qian's servants and obeyed his orders.

"change!"

As soon as the thought came to his mind, all the demons in the pagoda, except for the guards of the first and second palaces, were ground into demon essences while howling in agony.

The spirit of these demons is slightly stronger than before. It is obvious that the demons in the second palace are much more powerful than those in the first palace.

Seeing this horrifying scene, the Second Palace Guardian was terrified. He touched the demon shadow next to him and asked tremblingly, "What kind of magical power is this, Lord Demon?"

Mo Ying had seen this once before. He looked at the other party with disdain and was too lazy to answer.

At this time, Zhang Qian's voice rang out: "Since you two have become my demon servants, you should have a name. Let's call you Demon One and Demon Two."

The two demon servants complained in their hearts, but still looked happy.

After naming the two demon servants, Zhang Qian asked, "Let me ask you, with your power, what level of cultivators can you confuse at most?"

Mo Yi rushed to answer: "Master Demon Lord, the illusion of the Heavenly Demon that I manifest can only confuse cultivators at the Great Perfection of Mana, but not stronger."

Demon Two looked at Demon One with contempt and said, "I am stronger than him. If I use my full strength, I can confuse cultivators at the initial stage of True Essence. I cannot confuse cultivators above this stage."

Zhang Qian nodded, and then asked, "What is the power of the Demon King of the 6th, 7th and 8th Palaces?"

Demon II was shocked, and after a while he answered, "Those three Heavenly Demon Kings are quite powerful. The Heavenly Demon King of the Sixth Palace can confuse cultivators at the Great Perfection of True Essence, the Heavenly Demon King of the Seventh Palace can even confuse Golden Core cultivators, and the last Heavenly Demon King of the Eighth Palace is even more powerful. He can confuse cultivators below the third level of Golden Core. That Heavenly Demon King has already realized a little bit of the way to turn the virtual into the real, and the Heavenly Demon illusions he manifests are no longer completely false, but have a hint of reality. His methods are very terrifying."
