Capítulo 1241: Chapter 53: Dark Matter, Cricket Fighting_3
The Thousand Miles Instant Travel Technique involves first using a secret technique to perceive and lock onto the invisible “Heaven and Earth Veins,” and then supplenting with the corresponding Five Elents Escape Technique to rge oneself into these veins, thereby achieving super long-distance instantaneous transmission. As long as you set up coordinates or beacons at the vein nodes of the target location beforehand, you can arrive instantly with this thod, which is extrely mysterious.
With this spell, there is now an additional quick way to travel or escape in the future.
Xiao Jie gathered up the jade scrolls that had lost their spiritual light and thought that since there was no thod to control the Black Liquid in the books on hand, he might as well check out the Scripture Pavilion in Gu Yun State. It houses many ancient books and secret records collected by the Immortals, and perhaps there might be related docuntation. Moreover, it would be the perfect opportunity to also inquire with Lin Xuance and the others about the “Heaven-Reaching Trigram.”
Thinking of this, Xiao Jie did not delay any longer, got up, tidied his robe, and stepped out of the quiet room arranged for him by Xiao Yue Palace.
Arriving at the open space outside the palace, he thought to himself, and clouds ford under his feet, lifting him slowly into the air. After checking the direction, he rode the cloud, transforming into a stream of light, and rapidly flew towards Gu Yun State.
A few hours later, Xiao Jie successfully returned to the familiar territory of Gu Yun State. He didn’t stop and directly entered the Mountain and Sea Painting Realm.
Passing through the ink-wash painting-like entrance, he flew to the top of the immortal mountain and walked into the grand and ethereal Immortal Palace Hall. However, he was imdiately dumbfounded by sudden loud noises and cheers as soon as he walked through the hall door.
Huh, not drinking and singing today?
In the center of the hall where Immortals used to drink and revel, there was an enormous brown pottery jar! The pottery jar was over ten ters high and had a diater exceeding fifty ters, resembling a small stadium.
What left Xiao Jie even more astonished was that on the broad rim of the jar stood a row of Immortals who usually exhibited ethereal deanors and extraordinary temperants! One by one, they craned their necks, pointing inside the jar, occasionally bursting into cheers or sighs of regret.
Sharp hissing and the clashing sounds of shells were constantly coming from the bottom of the jar.
Curiosity overtook Xiao Jie, and he also rode the clouds to the rim of the jar and looked inside.
At the bottom of the jar, two giant insects were engaged in a fierce battle! One was an enormous mantis, entirely erald green and shaped like a big blade, with a height exceeding five ters; the other was a gigantic sky beetle with a thick black shell and exaggerated long horns, standing about three ters tall.
What surprised Xiao Jie was that although these two insects were huge and had a domineering presence, upon closer perception, there was no strong demonic or spiritual power fluctuation on them. Essentially, they seed to still be in the “Beast” category, only enlarged by so thod.
He instinctively glanced at the monster nas above their heads.
Giant Mantis (Master Qixia’s Little Pet): Level 38, Life Value 1800/1800.
Giant Sky Beetle (Master Wuyun’s Little Pet): Level 42, Life Value 2200/2200.
Although the sky beetle had a slight advantage in level and blood volu, the mantis was obviously more adept at hunting and battling. Its scythe-like forelimbs slashed through the air like guillotines, leaving deep cuts on the sky beetle’s hard shell, which it could barely fend off with its stiff armor, making the fight evenly matched and hard to call.
The surrounding Immortals watched with great interest, occasionally comnting:
“Great! That side slash was brilliant!”
“Ah, what a pity, that sky beetle’s shell is too thick!”
“Hurry and force it down, take it down now!”
Xiao Jie was speechless; these Immortals… sure are idle! They’ve taken to fighting “crickets,” just replacing the crickets with giant insects and the venue with a super large pottery jar…
“Huh? Isn’t this Daoist Sui Feng? What a rare guest!” An Immortal with sharp eyes noticed Xiao Jie and greeted him warmly.
Another Immortal beside him proudly pointed at the ongoing battle in the jar, showing it off to him: “Look, this is the new amusent Feiyu ca up with, how interesting, isn’t it? Transforming mortal insects with the ‘Giant Technique’ and putting them in this jar to observe their fight has its own charm. I bet you’ve never seen such a ga, have you?”
Xiao Jie was speechless again; this is nothing but cricket fighting in another guise… just using Immortal Law to enlarge the bugs. The entertainnt activities of Immortals are really… plain and dull.
He had no interest in this, his gaze swept through the crowd, quickly finding his target.
He flew to the side of a middle-aged Taoist, who was wearing a Two Forms Taoist Robe and had a refined manner, and respectfully said: “Daoist Xuanxuzi, I have heard that you are very knowledgeable in divination techniques and astrological fate, and I have sothing to ask. Have you ever heard of — ‘Heaven-Reaching Trigram’?”
As soon as the three words “Heaven-Reaching Trigram” were spoken, the original noisy cheering, discussions, and comntary imdiately stopped!
The Immortals completely ignored the two giant insects still fighting and all turned their gaze to Xiao Jie.
