After breaking through the illusion, Jade's senses tingled with a persistent feeling that they remained ensnared in yet another layer of deception. Urgently, he turned to Kieran, his eyes brimming with concern. "Kieran, I believe we're still trapped in another layer of illusion. We must find a way to break free," Jade whispered urgently.
Kieran nodded gravely, his focus honed on the relic's power. Strengthened by the bond of blood with his friends, they united against the deceptive forces at play.
Together, they delved deeper into the illusion, following an instinctual pull towards the realm's heart. Shadows thickened, twisting into grotesque forms that seemed to taunt their progress. The air grew heavy with a sense of foreboding, as if the very atmosphere conspired against them.
But Kieran's unwavering determination propelled them forward, the relic guiding them through the maze of illusions. With each step, their bond solidified, fortifying them against the encroaching darkness. Their footsteps echoed through the silent, eerie landscape, a constant reminder of their journey into the unknown.
As they neared the illusion's source, Jade felt a surge of power from Kieran's relic. Its ethereal glow pushed back the shadows, revealing the true nature of their surroundings. They found themselves standing in a vast, desolate wasteland, devoid of life and color.
Before them stood Number 4, his shadowy aura and seven black tails marking him as a formidable adversary. With a sharp intake of breath, Jade and the others recognized the gravity of their situation. Number 4's presence loomed over them like a dark cloud, casting a pall over the battlefield.

As the battle raged, Number 4 summoned his army of the void, the Feather Fangs, recalling the devastation they wrought on the heavenly realm. With a silent understanding, Jade, Kieran, and Susan devised a strategy to counter the overwhelming force.
Kieran unleashed the relic's power, striking at the heart of Number 4's dark aura. The emperors and elders bolstered his attack, amplifying its force and creating a dazzling display of elemental energy that lit up the battlefield.

Susan's magic crackled and surged, unleashing a torrent of elemental fury upon their enemies.
In a final, desperate move, Number 4 unleashed his full power. Dark tendrils lashed out, seeking to ensnare and consume his foes. But the group stood firm, their bond shining brightly as they met his attack head-on. With a resounding clash, light and darkness collided, resulting in a brilliant explosion that illuminated the battlefield.

Jade faced a vision of his past failures and weaknesses, the doubts that had plagued him for so long. Kieran was confronted with visions of his lost loved ones, their accusing stares haunting him. Susan was surrounded by images of a world engulfed in chaos, her powers rendered useless against the tide of destruction.
But as the illusion tightened its grip on them, the bond of blood between the group shone bright. They reached out to each other, drawing strength and courage from their unity. With a shared resolve, they pushed back against the illusion, determined to break free from its suffocating embrace.

Finally, as they reached the heart of the illusion, they found themselves face to face with Number 4 once more. His malevolent grin sent shivers down their spines, but they stood tall, their bond of blood pulsing with newfound power.
