Chapter 508: The Crying Red Fish
Ma Qing frowned deeply as he stared at the Golden Taixu Mirror in Jiang Lizhi’s hand. He wondered if this was the reason Jiang Lizhi was so certain Ji Tiandao was an impostor. If that was the case, who was the old man who killed the Other Tribesn the other day? Was he mistaken? Perhaps, this old man had disguised himself as Ji Tiandao the other day? He shook his head. ‘No, no, no. I can’t be led astray by the bastard, Jiang Lizhi!’ He was certain he did not make a mistake. He would not suffer a loss if he trusted his own judgnts.
Jiang Lizhi raised the Golden Taixu Mirror in his hand.
Primal Qi surged, and Qi was condensed into energy. Golden energy swirled around the golden mirror before it buzzed and shone. The veins on the mirror’s surface ford an energy seal that turned into a round Formation vein with a uniform pattern. It resembled the Daoist Eight Gates Formation seal.
Jiang Lizhi smiled and shifted the golden mirror. The Eight Gates Formation seal’s light was shone directly at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou was curious about the Golden Taixu Mirror. However, it felt quite awkward to be, quite literally, put in the spotlight. He frowned slightly.
At this mont, a Golden Lotus appeared before the Golden Taixu Mirror. Two blades of leaves spun around the Golden Lotus.
“Two-leaf Nascent Divinity realm!”
“He’s really an impostor!”
“Even if he’s an impostor, he’s not soone we can afford to cross. A Two-leaf Nascent Divinity cultivator is an elite as well!”
Only a handful of the cultivators gathered there were in the Nascent Divinity realm. Even if the old man was an impostor, they would not dare offend him.
Jiang Lizhi was pleased with the performance of the Golden Taixu Mirror. He said haughtily, “I’ve used the Golden Taixu Mirror to see through many impostors on my way here. There have been at least three cases where soone tried to impersonate the Evil Sky Pavilion’s Master.” He straightened three fingers and showed them to the crowd as he spoke.
Ma Qing was not convinced by this. He glanced at Lu Zhou before he said, “Nonsense! Jiang Lizhi, stop trying to fool everyone with your lies!”
“Elder Ma, the truth is right before your eyes.”
The others began to discuss among themselves.
The expression of Madam Huang who was standing on the umbrellas turned unnatural., ‘Why is the focus on the authenticity of Ji Tiandao’s identity now?’
Jiang Lizhi looked at Lu Zhou. He was no longer as respectful and polite as before. He said disdainfully, “A Two-leaf Nascent Divinity cultivator. If you don’t believe , I’ll shine the mirror on him again.”
A disciple standing behind Jiang Lizhi chid in, “The Golden Taixu Mirror can also be used as a demon-revealing mirror!”
Whizz!
The Golden Taixu Mirror shone again from the Eight Gates Formation seal.
Jiang Lizhi raised his hand and directed the beam of light toward Lu Zhou.
Just when the light was about to shine on Lu Zhou, he struck with his palm. “Impudent!”
A golden vortex swirled in an anti-clockwise direction in his palm before huge palm seals shot out.
“Huh?”
The first seal was the Sole Diamond Seal. Huge nine scripts appeared: Power, Energy, Harmony, Healing, Intuition, Awareness, Dinsion, Creation, and Absoluteness. They were arranged around the seal as it sailed toward Jiang Lizhi with a dazzling golden light.
Boom!
It could not be dodged.
The first palm seal turned the stunned Jiang Lizhi. He was like a wooden chicken at this mont. The second to the ninth palm seals shot out as well, hitting his face and chest. The sizes of the palm seals were just the right size for his height. It was not too big nor too small. A single palm seal covered his entire person. When the final palm seal struck him, he was no longer there. He had been reduced to ashes and was scattered in the wind. No trace of him was left!
Clang!
The Golden Taixu Mirror fell onto the ground and rolled along a seam between the flat stone slabs, ringing loudly. It rolled for a dozen ters and circled around the sa spot before it ca to a stop.
The sound seed lonely as it rang in everyone’s ears.
The mirror faced the skies.
Coincidence was the best term in the world to describe the indescribable and mysterious incidents.
The sun shone on the Golden Taixu Mirror. An Eight Gates Formation seal appeared in the skies. It was incomparably gorgeous! It covered everyone present on the scene. Fortunately, this was only the sunlight. Otherwise, everyone else’s true cultivation bases would be revealed.
The entire place was silent. Everyone was drawn by the Golden Taixu Mirror. Then, they turned to look at the old man who had just attacked with a tense and fearful gaze.
“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 1,500 rit points.”
It seed like Lu Zhou’s words and the Nine Cuts Hand Seals had intimidated the others.
The Golden Taixu Mirror? The Taixu Academy? Two-leaf or Eight-leaf, it did not matter how many leaves his opponent had. A Deadly Strike Card would easily take care of them. If Jiang Lizhi had committed a great offense when he shone the mirror at him the first ti, he was practically seeking death when he shone the mirror on him the second ti!
The Taixu Academy disciples who ca with Jiang Lizhi were stunned. They gulped as they looked at the empty spot where Jiang Lizhi was standing just a mont ago. He was nowhere to be seen! A chill ran down their spines. Was it really Old Senior Ji?
Everyone was looking at the old man now.
Good heavens!
Their hearts trembled as their knees shook.
At this mont, Little Yuan’er’s giggle broke the silence. She ran over and picked the Golden Taixu Mirror up. “Master, this mirror seems fun.” She channeled so Primal Qi into it.
Whizz!
The radiance from the Golden Taixu Mirror shone into the sea.
Wuuu!
The sea’s surface roiled, and the water rose.
The strange noise drew everyone’s attention. It pulled them out of their shocked state imdiately. They looked toward the area in the sea where the noise ca from.
The Golden Taixu Mirror continued to shine. The beam of light penetrated the seawater.
The clear waters suddenly turned red as a huge fish about 50 feet long appeared. Its gills shone differently under the Golden Taixu Mirror’s illumination.
“Luo Yu!”
“It’s Luo Yu!”
The crowd exclaid in shock.
The appearance of Luo Yu made them forget about Jiang Lizhi’s death. They had also forgotten to confirm if this old man was the greatest expert in the world.
Little Yuan’er was delighted. She shone the Golden Taixu Mirror toward the sea again. She even ran to Conch’s side, inviting Conch to play. “Conch, look!”
However, Conch seed distracted. She murmured, “It looks so sad...”
“Huh? How do you know?” Little Yuan’er asked.
“I can feel it.”
“...”
anwhile, the expression of Madam Huang who was still standing on the umbrellas changed slightly. She looked at Luo Yu in the water before bowed at Lu Zhou who was standing at the edge of the island and said, “Your thods are bizarre, Old Mister. Please take charge of the situation!”
Wu!
Splash!
Luo Yu suddenly broke the surface of the water. Its gills spread out into wings! The golden and red radiance intertwined. It flew in a circle under the floating island’s Formation.
The fish was flying in the air!
It was common knowledge in the cultivation world that Luo Yu could fly. However, it was their first ti seeing it emitting such a gorgeous and steady radiance from its entire body.
Dong!
The floating island sank another ten ters.
When the floating island sank, Luo Yu gave a cry that resounded across the floating island.
“It’s crying.” Conch seed to sympathize with it.
Nobody noticed that.
Water droplets the size of fists leaked out of Luo Yu’s eyes. It did a final flip and drew a perfect arc in the air as it plunged back into the sea. It continued swimming under the Formation’s area with increasing speed.
“You wicked livestock! Madam Huang, this must be the thing that’s damaging the Formation! The floating island can be saved if we do away with this wicked livestock!”
