Chapter 204 – The moon rises over the cold palace
Su Yun opened the car window and looked out, a bright moon hung high in the sky.
He lowered his head and looked at the mirror in his hand. The moon in the mirror was the sa as the moon in the sky, which puzzled him. "Why is this moon in the mirror?"
Suddenly, Su Yun had an epiphany. "The moon in the mirror and the moon in the sky are the sa moon, but it's not the moon in the mirror, it's because the mirror is actually two mirrors connected together, just like the Dao Saint's Tian Dao Ling!"
Excitedly, Su Yun realized that the mirror in his hand was also a portal. The Tian Dao Ling connected to the Tian Dao Yuan, and the mirror connected to...
Su Yun raised his head in surprise and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. He waved his spiritual power, and the mirror flew up, casting a moonlight bridge that was three or four feet in diater.
Following the bridge of moonlight, Su Yun's spiritual power entered the mirror, and the book monster Ying Ying, who was resting on his Huang Zhong, followed him.
They found themselves in a desolate landscape surrounded by circular mountains, with a blue planet floating in the dark sky emitting blue light. Ying Ying was stunned to see a huge landmass on the planet, extending into the sky as a vast ocean with thunderstorms brewing, forming a huge vortex.
At the other end of the ocean, it disappeared into the void, leading to an unknown destination. In the distance, she also saw scattered land masses floating in the sky, like huge remnants left behind by sothing that had collided with the planet.
"Where is this?" Ying Ying murmured. Even as a book monster of the Tian Dao Yuan, she had never seen such a scene before.
"We're on the moon," Su Yun's voice ca into her ears. "The planet below is where we live."
Ying Ying followed Su Yun's gaze and saw a long bridge of light spreading across the dark sky, and the spiritual beings of the Lou Ban clan walking on it and stopping in the air above the moon.
Su Yun waved to his old friend in the mirror, but Lou Ban did not see him and flew away on the rainbow bridge.
"Goodbye, my friend," Su Yun whispered.
Although Lou Ban was only titled as a Tian Shi by the emperor and did not have the title of a Saint, his achievents were comparable to those of a Saint. Even the Four Mythical Dao Saints and Confucian Saints could not match his achievents. As for Xue Qingfu, the Saint of the People, whose family had three generations of Saints, their achievents were also incomparable to Lou Ban's.
Now, after his death, his spiritual power left this land that had nurtured him and went to the depths of the universe to find the elusive immortal realm.
"Su Shi Zi, look, look!" Ying Ying pointed excitedly to a building on the moon.Su Yun laughed and said, "How could there be a building on the moon..."
His eyes were blank, but he really saw a building. The building was very tall, about a hundred feet high, like a small mountain!
This building was a hexagonal tower, and each floor was a palace. The palaces were connected by arches, layered on top of each other, rising from the ground and very magnificent!
"Heavenly Tower..."
Su Yun looked at the building in surprise and imdiately recognized it as the Heavenly Tower that disappeared from Shuofang City!
A while ago, on the night when the seven major families rebelled, the Heavenly Tower suddenly disappeared. After the turmoil subsided, Su Yun searched for it for a long ti, but couldn't find where the building was.
You should know that he controls the Dust Curtain Sky, and the Dust Curtain Sky controls the entire Shuofang City. Even if a building or a lamp post is lost, it cannot escape his perception!
However, the entire Heavenly Tower disappeared into thin air, and even if he sensed it, he couldn't sense where it was.
Unexpectedly, this building sohow ended up on the moon!
"Who threw my building onto the moon?"
Su Yun was at a loss. He was the biggest landlord in Shuofang City, and the entire Shuofang City belonged to him. Although he had never collected rent, and others didn't know he was a landlord, it was too bold to throw his building onto the moon without saying a word, right?
"This mirror was left to by Mr. Shuijing. Could it be..." He raised his eyebrows.
"There are still traces of battle over there!"
Ying Ying pointed to the distance and exclaid, "There's also a huge arrow!"
Su Yun looked over there and indeed saw the traces left by supernatural powers. In addition, soone drew a huge arrow on the ground, pointing to the circular mountain in the distance.
"Is this arrow also left by Mr. Shuijing?"
Su Yun was puzzled and looked towards the circular mountain. The mountain didn't look that far away, but the actual distance was probably dozens of miles.
"There's also a palace over there!" Ying Ying flew towards the distance excitedly.
Su Yun's face turned black, thinking, "Could it be that the palace was also caused by Mr. Shuijing's mischief, throwing my palace in Shuofang onto the moon? How did he get it up here... huh, it's not my palace!"
Where Ying Ying flew to was a basin on the moon. There were traces swept by supernatural powers, revealing a cluster of ancient and simple palaces hidden under the dust.
The palaces were extrely ancient and simple, with stone carvings of qilin, white elephants, and other creatures at the doors. Several palaces surrounded the area, and there was also a broken altar and several damaged ornantal columns around it.
This place should have been abandoned for a long ti, covered in dust.
Ying Ying suddenly hit an invisible barrier, and slid down with a creaking sound.
Su Yun cautiously walked forward, reached out his hands and wiped them, and indeed felt an invisible barrier.
"We're in the mirror."
Su Yun groped around the invisible barrier and said, "There's a mirror on the moon. I also have a mirror in my hand. The spiritual realm contained in the two mirrors is actually the sa! So we can enter the spiritual realm of the other mirror from the spiritual realm of one mirror."
Ying Ying flew up, looked at the palaces outside, and said with a flickering gaze, "There is a way to get out. Our spiritual energy can be moved out through supernatural powers, or we can directly break the mirror and get out."
Su Yun's mind moved slightly, and a big yellow bell appeared. Ying Ying quickly landed on the bell, and Su Yun also sat on the bell. The bell floated out of this bright mirror.
Outside, Ying Ying imdiately pinched her neck and couldn't breathe. Su Yun was shocked and imdiately sent the little book monster back into the mirror. After Ying Ying returned to the mirror, she imdiately recovered and said, "There is no air outside. The physical body is useless, and only spiritual energy can be used."Her spiritual essence flew out of her body and was brought to the moon by Su Yun.
The two stood on the large yellow bell and it floated towards the palace in the distant valley.
"Halt!"
Ying Ying suddenly beca nervous and stopped Su Yun, cautiously staring at the palace like it was a formidable enemy. She whispered, "Su Scholar, I sense the aura of spirits! Look at that stone qilin!"
Su Yun imdiately activated the Dao Door Heavenly Eye and looked towards the palace. The layout of the palace instantly beca clear in his mind.
The stone qilin Ying Ying ntioned was the closest palace entrance stone carving to them. The Dao Door Heavenly Eye was equivalent to having countless lines of sight and focal points, allowing one to observe a thing from all directions at the sa ti!
Su Yun imdiately looked at the stone qilin and was slightly stunned. He saw that the scales on the qilin's foot were shining brightly with a tallic luster, while the other scales were still the color of stone.
He took a step forward and suddenly, more than ten scales on the qilin's foot shone brightly, and the qilin's claws began to gain flesh and blood.
"There is a terrible spiritual essence hidden in that stone qilin."
Su Yun stepped back and said, "It's not sothing we can handle."
Ying Ying nodded and said, "I just sensed that there is an extrely powerful spirit here, and there is more than one. The closest one to us is it! The strength of these spirits is not much weaker than that of human demons and dragon spirits!"
"Not weaker than human demons and dragon spirits? And there is more than one?"
Su Yun's scalp tingled as he looked at the buildings in the Moon Valley and murmured, "Who built these buildings here and why did they leave behind these powerful spirits? Why weren't these spirits attracted to the Heavenly Market Enclosure?"
He looked towards the other palaces with his Heavenly Eye and saw strange writing next to the altar. Su Yun wrote down the writing and said, "We ca here in a hurry and were unprepared. Let's go back first."
Ying Ying said, "Let's go see where that arrow is pointing!"
The two sat on the large yellow bell and it floated towards the circular mountain. When they arrived, Su Yun looked down and said, "There seems to be a door inside the mountain and a corpse...hmm?"
His expression changed slightly. "This door..."
After a while, Su Yun and Ying Ying's spiritual essences left the mirror and returned to Su Yun's spiritual realm. They both looked troubled.
Su Yun regained his composure, took out pen and paper, and wrote down the writing he saw on the moon's buildings. He asked, "Does Dao Saint recognize these two characters?"
Dao Saint looked at it and shook his head. "This is not my Yuan Shuo writing, nor is it ancient language. I don't recognize it."
Wu Tong, a girl in the sa carriage, glanced over and suddenly said sothing in a difficult language that didn't sound like Yuan Shuo.
Su Yun was stunned. "What?"
Wu Tong said lightly, "I said, Guang Han. These two characters are pronounced Guang Han."
