Ask the Mirror Chapter 94: The sun is shining and the snow is falling on the lake
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!
Zhang Tianji stood blankly in the void, five feet in front of him was Xu Sheng.
He still had a plain face and a serious attitude, but he was not breathing.
Yes, he is a ghost cultivator...
But the problem is that not only Xusheng, but also tens of thousands of monks are here inside and outside Shuxuan Tower, between water and sky, but he still can't hear a single sound.
There is only the sound of wind and water, like the breath of the vast void, coming in and out, falling together, with an incredible sense of rhythm.
In this situation, it is as if there is an intangible and intangible giant standing beside you, watching you and observing you in a way that you cannot understand, and reminding you of his existence.
The contrast between the grand and the small, the tangible and the intangible, the knowable and the unknowable, naturally produces terrible tension.
Zhang Tianji must deliberately adjust his Qi so as not to be led astray by the rhythm of this "breathing".
He looked into Xu Sheng's eyes again, but what he saw was an emptiness, only slightly reflecting the light, as if it were the boundless cold starry sky outside the territory.
"What the hell..."
Zhang Tianji knew that his mind was in chaos.
He had guessed the only reason for this mysterious scene, and before he decided to appear, he never thought that he would encounter such a situation.
It is not that Zhang Tianji has never seen big scenes, and he has also had face-to-face interactions with powerful people whose realms are far above him, but these experiences are not of any substantial help to the scene before him.
He did not want to look directly into Xu Sheng's eyes anymore and looked away, but his eyes were narrowed by the light of the sun.
It was also at this moment that his heart felt heavy again. Looking at the clear sky, he fell into a daze again.
The so-called Wanxiang method is to imitate objects and take shapes to show the wonders of all things...
On the viewing platform, Master Guangwei suddenly stood up, ignoring Ao Yang and Ao Xiu's eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"We admit defeat in this round!"
When the voice reached this side, Zhang Tianji's face was like cast iron, but he did not object. He stood there, closed his eyes, and could only sigh.
A wise man in his life is now in ruins!
There was a commotion on the lake. Although it shocked my mind and made my thinking go blank, I still didn't understand why the famous "True King of Hell" gave up when he said he would.
The Shuxuan Tower was also in chaos. Some of the monks were staring at Xu Sheng, and some were looking at Yu Ci, but no matter which one they were, it was the same thing:
This... divine power descended from heaven, possessed by Taoism?
No one would think that a mid-level ghost cultivator could disturb the void of heaven and earth just by releasing his energy.
Xue Pingzhi was shocked: "Master Housheng is still in this world?"
At this time, Yu Ci was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Guangwei would really interfere, and Zhang Tianji would be so cheerful.
He gave Xue Pingzhi a smile back: "My servant has a simple and pious heart, and he is close to the water, so he can use it for his own use. This is a Shinto matter, and it is a bit embarrassing to say it... But Guang Guang Master Wei and Master Tianji said this, can we be considered a winner in this round?"
His voice was high in the last few sentences, and he was speaking for others to hear.
Behind the curtain, Mrs. Xia also spoke after a moment:
"The method of Shinto is also one of the methods of cultivation. It is normal law for the Lord Housheng to have such devout disciples under his seat, and to use their magic power. It is a wise move for Lord Tianji to admit his defeat. , but also to express respect for Master Housheng..."
At first, Yu Ci thought that Mrs. He seems to have always underestimated the power and influence of the God Lord in the real world.
Over the long years, the real world may have formed a set of etiquette attitudes corresponding to the gods, earth immortals and other great powers.
It was also Yu Ci who kept getting up. He had too many "deals" with the Rakshasa Ghost King, the Brahma Demon King and the like, and was too familiar with them, but lacked accurate understanding. The only relevant scene I witnessed was the scene where the blood monk slaughtered spirits in the cliff city in his early years. Looking at it now, it was also a drama that had been arranged long ago, and it cannot be used as a reference.
If I had known this... Is my work in vain?
As I was slandering, I heard Mrs.
Both Zhengyiyi and the Maritime Chamber of Commerce remained silent. Zhang Tianji said nothing, bowed to Xu Sheng who was standing in the air, turned around and returned to the viewing platform.
Neither Ao Yang nor Ao Xiu said much. The atmosphere around them was heavy. In fact, they did not leave immediately, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of others.
The atmosphere inside and outside Shuxuan Tower became even weirder.
Even Xue Pingzhi probably didn't want to lose his etiquette and didn't continue to ask about the "Later Sage".
The scene that just happened seemed to be quickly forgotten.
However, the people on the Shuxuan Tower and the Observation Cloud Platform expressed their understanding, which does not mean that thousands of monks on the lake can accept it.
Although Taoist Qianbao's move was difficult to understand just now, it turned out to be wonderful in the end.
But the appearance of Xu Sheng and Zhang Tianji, going high and low, whetted people's appetites, and then let it go?
The words Mrs. Qi Xia said were not transmitted to the lake because they were too sensitive, and she couldn't even hear an explanation. Wasn't she too disrespectful of people?
The noise on the lake was unprecedentedly strong, but in the Shuxuan Tower, the monks from all walks of life turned a blind eye, listened as if they were not heard, and even omitted any discussion, and fell into silence like clay and wood sculptures. state.
It’s just that everyone’s eyes are extremely flexible, going back and forth between Yu Ci inside the building and Xu Sheng outside the building.
As the center of people's attention, Xu Sheng didn't show any other signs. Even his expression didn't change. He only returned to the building, saluted Yu Ci again, and then his figure faded away, and it was hard to see him again. , so that those who wanted to observe it closely were disappointed.
But from this moment on, the atmosphere in the building finally regained a little warmth.
The scene of two, three, three or five people talking in low voices reappeared, and the focus of the conversation was naturally the person who had just disappeared.
On the one hand, it is also the core theme, which is naturally the deeds of the later saints reflected in Xu Sheng. For a divine master, such "condescension" is undoubtedly a gesture: at a superficial level, it expresses the attitude that the Shangqing Sect's industry is bound to be won; at a deeper level... It depends on each individual’s interpretation.
When I go back today, there must be quite a few people who can't sleep.
On the other hand, people also have some thoughts about Xu Sheng's ability that he just showed.
Xu Sheng appears strangely and disappears quickly. Coupled with the cooperation between Zhang Tianji and Guang Wei Zhenren, it feels like an anticlimax. Some people speculated that perhaps he was possessed by the power of the Queen Saint, which was also a heavy burden for a ghost cultivator like Xu Sheng, who needed to recuperate.
In other words, if Yuanxu Tianjun wants to intervene in the battle for any world in the future, this secret weapon should no longer be used.
This is somewhat of a comfort to people.
Thinking more deeply from this perspective, there are still people who feel sorry for Zhang Tianji:
"The magical powers borrowed by Xu Sheng are indeed shocking, but they may not last long, and they are controlled by external forces. There should be some problems with the precision. If Master Guangwei doesn't destroy the trouble so quickly, let Zhang Tianji muster up the courage to fight, and delay the fight. In the end, it’s not impossible to win.”
"That makes sense. Can you go up and try it?"
"...It is easy to win a game, but difficult to end it."
Those who are tough talkers always have something to say, but no matter what, now that the ownership of the Death Star has settled, no matter how people discuss it, there must be a leader.
Behind the curtain, Madam Xia is also preparing to start the next round of fighting talismans.
She tapped the jade with her fingers, and a long and clear sound sounded. The aftermath was almost gone. She was about to speak, but suddenly she felt something in her heart, and she locked the words between her lips and teeth.
As for the monks inside and outside the building, they had already been reminded by the voice of Qingcheng to concentrate on listening to her speech. Unexpectedly, the first waiter did not come, the second waiter did not come, and until the lingering sound disappeared, Mrs. Xia's words were not heard. Just when it was strange, the sky suddenly turned dark.
Why is it cloudy again?
Someone looked up and glanced out. What they saw was a dark sky with misty clouds.
He didn't react at first and looked away, but halfway he realized something was wrong and looked out again, almost throwing his eyeballs out!
Hell! Where has the clear sky that just cleared away and the sun shined gone?
Was time flowing back and sending him back to the moment when Taoist Qianbao won?
Before he could finish his thoughts, he saw foggy, white "fragments" floating down in the sky.
His first thought was:
Is it snowing?
At this moment, monks from all sides, inside and outside Shuxuan Tower, up and down Xiyu Lake, raised their heads and entered a state of jaw-dropping again.
Under the cloudy sky, pieces and groups of bright "snow crystals" slowly fell.
If you look closely, you will see that it is none other than a fragment of a talisman fractal, or simply a curling pattern, still shining with unfinished aura, just falling all the way to the bottom of the lake, or sinking into the water, or just like that " melt".
On the lake, Wu Jing, who had woken up from his epiphany state, fell into a sluggish state again after seeing this scene.
"What's going on?"
Someone next to me replied: "It was cloudy just now, then it was sunny, and suddenly it was cloudy again, and then it started to snow... uh, it's raining like this."
At this time, the "snowflake" had fallen in front of him. Wu Jing suddenly stretched out his hand to touch the broken talisman like a small snowball. He caught it in his palm, looked at it for a moment, and then held it like a normal snowflake and ice crystal. Put it in your mouth.
Lin Shuangmu was too stupid to stop him.
The next moment, Wu Jing’s expression suddenly changed, he jumped three feet and stuck out his tongue wildly:,
"Oh, numb... spicy, not... hot!"
As he screamed, Lin Shuangmu saw that Wu Jing's lips and tongue were visibly swollen.
Lin Shuangmu wanted to laugh, but couldn't.
Even if Wu Jing seeks his own death, a broken talisman can injure the powerful Bu Xu monk to this extent. Look at the endless "snowflakes" floating in the sky. As soon as he made the calculation, Lin Shuangmu felt like his scalp was going to explode.
Which strongman did this?
Compared to these "poor people" who were confused, the monks from all walks of life inside and outside Shuxuan Tower had a different taste.
After all, they saw and heard more than the monks on the lake, and their eyesight was also better. In the "heavy snow", some clues finally connected back and forth, connecting the events before and after Zhang Tianji surrendered.
"This snow..."
"Still don't understand? Ever since Taoist Qianbao won, the clouds in the sky have not dispersed. As for Xu Sheng's appearance, all the wind and clouds have dispersed and the sun has been shining brightly are all fake!"
"Fake? Illusion?"
"Who knows, but that scene was most likely made up of these talisman fragments! Now that Xu Sheng has withdrawn, and there is no one to control it, everything has collapsed."
"Why did he do that?"
“Hey, brother, you’ve come to your senses now, use your brain, isn’t this just a myriad of things?”
The "brainless" guy got angry: "What do you mean by 'just'... Can you show us the all-encompassing method of 'just'?"
In fact, the biggest worry for monks from all walks of life inside and outside Shuxuan Tower is that they suddenly don’t know what expression to use to face this "heavy snow" and the person closely related to it.
So, when the "snowflakes" flew into the pavilion with the "snowflakes" that could not be told whether it was cold or warm, most of the monks turned back into clay and wood sculptures. However, they had to feel a sigh of relief in their hearts:
It turns out that this is the power of the Queen Saint!
Xin Yi touched his head and messed up his bun unconsciously. At this time, his sight was directed to the viewing platform, where the monk was:
"No wonder he admits defeat so readily, confusing the real with the fake, and not recognizing the other person - should this be said to be a superb talisman, or an illusion to reach the gods?"
No one answered him now anyway.
But he can also entertain himself: "So don't blame me for being a hindsight and making a mistake for the second time today. This time, Guangwei was a step ahead of me. Even the Tianji boy woke up in time... Of course, He is too close."
At this point, he suddenly raised his voice:
"Hey, over there, I don't believe you saw through it so quickly!"
Zhenren Guangwei was not as shameless as him. He just smiled in this direction without explanation or response.
Behind the curtain, Mrs. Xia said: "Zhen Guangwei has been paying attention to the changes in the sun since the first competition. Perhaps this is where the clues emerged."
Mrs.
Imitation of objects and shapes, all kinds of things.
The previous Wanxiang method was to simulate some birds and beasts at most, or ferocious demons at most, to compare spirituality and combat power.
Unexpectedly, Master Housheng did not take the ordinary path and directly transformed into a scorching sun and a clear sky. How could Zhang Tianji compare to this?
It’s not that they don’t work hard, it’s just that Master Housheng is too strong!
From beginning to end, Yu Ci made no special gesture. He no longer had to do anything. He just needed to remain in his position under the gazes of the monks from all sides.
From the moment he recaptured the Death Star, he was temporarily undressed.
In other people's understanding, no matter whether it is dignified and upright, or winning without force, it cannot change this result.
A "heavy snow" has only been falling for about twenty breaths, but the power contained in it is turning into a "snowy wind", blowing into people's hearts, sending a deep chill.
Except for a limited number of people such as Xin Yi, Chu Yuanxiang, and Yang Zhu, it is difficult for monks from all walks of life not to be affected.
Several waves of attacks have caused monks from all walks of life to pay less attention to Bixiao Qingtan and Fenyun Fighting Talisman.
In fact, the next waterfall world is useless to all sects. No sect in the world is interested in it, but Xue Pingzhi and another casual cultivator in the building are interested in it. The strong person, Lingjian Master, is determined to win this.
However, when the eyes over there glanced at Yu Ci, they couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.
Xue Pingzhi was in a good mood and thanked Yu Ci before the war started.
Yu Ci laughed at her not to get carried away, but in fact, this was too much worry.
Xue Pingzhi’s preparations were obviously more than one step ahead of his opponents, and his alliance with Mrs. Yu Ci, who did not pose a substantial threat and did not even have his turn to play in the finale, won three of the four rounds and successfully won the waterfall realm.
Of course, next, she also needs to provide Feihun City with some special resources in the world. During this period, Feihun City also needs to provide relevant protection to Feihua Realm. Only in this way for three hundred years can we truly Consider it Xue Pingzhi's private property.
Xue Pingzhi can afford this price.
The next step is the battle between the Nine Qi Yuan Realm and the Binglan Realm.
The most valuable things in the Nine Qi Yuan Realm are the various innate things that existed when the world was first opened.
As for the Binglan Realm, according to the Bixiao Jade Book, it is a frozen world. It seems to be an ancient battlefield outside the territory. There once was a fatal war, but at the end of the war, it was killed by a certain... Or a few great powers could completely freeze it with their immense magical power.
In this world, there may be many leftover magic weapons, minerals, and even practice books. Although the physical and spiritual structures of extraterrestrial creatures and real world creatures may not be the same, they are extremely simple and can be used as reference for many methods, which are of extremely high value.
The competition between these two void worlds should be regarded as a typical "negotiation" result, with a very interesting "flower arrangement" competition.
For example, the Qianqi Sect of Feihun City will join forces with the Chongxuan Sect of Qingxu Daode Sect;
The Xiangshan Sect, a branch of the Siming Sect, will team up with the Wujue Pavilion, a branch of the Feihun City.
It seems that the six relatives do not recognize each other, but in fact, traces of prior negotiation can be seen everywhere. It is through various "flower arrangements" that the rights and interests of various sects and various forces in the void world are skillfully adjusted.
If you know the situation of Xiyu League better, watching this kind of competition will be very boring - because the outcome has been determined before taking action.
Probably the only good thing is that although it is just a formality, each sect sends masters above the level of Immortal Changsheng to ensure that the infiltration of external forces is blocked. Therefore, whether it is a "competition" or a "discussion", the internal battle The level of the talismans is very high, and the level is extremely high.
Correspondingly, big merchants such as Suixin Pavilion and Sanxitang, as well as southern Xuanmen such as Huang Tiandao and Shenxiao Sect, are all in disgrace, which somewhat conceals some of the flavor of "peacemaking."
But all the "flower arrangements" are only done in these two realms, and at most the Iron Meteor realm is included.
In Zhaoxuan Holy World and Taishi Star, this situation is absolutely impossible.
The importance of Taishi Star is unparalleled. This time, there are "five realms and two stars" in the seven void worlds, but this is not the normal ratio of " realms " and " stars" in the outer starry sky. In fact, the number of worlds is too small. In terms of quantity, they are not on the same level at all. The reason why they appear to be many is because only this kind of place has enough energy and stable structure. In the distortion of the void, with Real world connection.
In comparison, the Death Star has been in contact for a long time, and the Taishi Star is simply a blessing.
So the various sects are fighting over each other, and they are definitely disowning each other.
As for Zhaoxuan Holy World, it is also very special and a hard nut to crack.
When monks from the real world name other void worlds, they will not take the initiative to add the word "holy" in any case. This is actually because it comes from "translation".
According to the news, Zhaoxuan Holy World is a large world with a very high level of civilization, and the strength of the creatures in it is not even inferior to that of the True World. At the beginning of this great catastrophe of heaven and earth, the structure of the void was chaotic, and many outside worlds connected with the real world, but Zhaoxuan Holy World was an exception.
Originally, this world has not yet reached the level of interoperability with the real world. It is actually the "main driving force" of this big world, connecting the two worlds. Experts were even sent to the real world to test and reconnaissance, and to interact with this world. A conflict broke out between the sects, with casualties on both sides.
Intelligence shows that this void world is rich in resources, but its inherent civilization is very strong. The physical characteristics of its main creatures and the corresponding moral and legal principles are quite different from the real world. It is almost irreconcilable and extremely threatening. It is not a sect. Only a few sects or sects can eat it.
Yu Ci also doubted whether Xin Yi's turbulent visit to the Three Lakes in the North had elements from the Zhaoxuan Holy World.
In this star realm, Taishi Star is something that other small and medium-sized sects want to fight for but cannot obtain, which embodies their rights; Zhaoxuan Holy Realm is something that they are afraid of avoiding, but they must force themselves on it, embodying their obligations. very interesting".
The essence of Bixiao Qingtan can only be truly reflected in this star world.
Nowadays, the battle for the Nine Qi Yuanjie has just entered its third round. No matter how complicated its shareholding relationship is, the relationship with Yu Ci is not too big, at least on the surface.
Yu Ci had some free time, chatting with Xue Pingzhi and Taoist Qianbao, and commenting on the quality of the talisman. It was a pleasant time.
But not long after, someone on one side used a secret method to "greet". Yu Ci turned around and saw Cang You, the Great Witch, looking over at the curtain next to the main seat and nodding slightly.
Yu Ci's face remained calm, she just said something to Xue Pingzhi and Taoist Qianbao, then stood up and left the table.
Maybe some people have been paying attention to his actions and guessing his whereabouts, but it doesn't matter.
According to the message from the great witch Cang You, he went down the stairs that were “in name only” and went straight to the second floor of Xuan Tower.
This is the center of the entire pavilion's ban. It is considered a core location. Except for the monks from Feihun City, it is difficult for others to enter.
When Yu Ci walked into the various banning agencies, there were already people waiting here.
But it was not the great witch Cang You who greeted him before, but Mrs. Xia.
