"What a joke." Seeing the sword coming towards him, Pei Zi Yun's body emitted a thin layer of light. The moment the light appeared, the mirror's light slipped, as though it was unable to lock onto its target. Although it only lasted for a moment, Pei Zi Yun had already dodged the attack.
"Impossible!" The Earth Immortal's face fell. Just as the spiritual light formed a thin layer, the sword had already swept past him. With a "pu" sound, a cut appeared on the Earth Immortal's waist.
"What's impossible about it?"
"Your mirror is indeed powerful, but all 85 of my Dao techniques are at the Grandmaster level. Every single one of them can be transformed into a divine technique."
"My understanding of Daoist techniques is not something you can imagine."
"In the time it took for you to shout, I have gathered 17 transformations and transformed them into spiritual light. Although it was only for a moment, it should be enough."
"Now, die! Wind Form Cloud Body!"
The Cloud Form had already been cultivated to the maximum level. Pei Zi Yun's entire body transformed into a ray of light, moving at high speed. The sword continued to fall.
"Clang clang clang! Pu!" Sparks flew everywhere. The sword moved so fast that it could no longer be seen with the naked eye. It was instinct. The Earth Immortal quickly blocked the sword. Sparks flew everywhere as he retreated step by step. At the sixth sword, he could barely hold on. At the seventh sword, another cut appeared on his body.
"Pu pu pu!" The Earth Immortal was struck a few more times and fell back. Every time he was struck, the wound became deeper and deeper, closer and closer to his vital organs. The last strike had almost pierced through his abdomen. He fell to his knees as blood flowed out of his wound like a fountain. He could only glare at Pei Zi Yun angrily as he stretched out his hand to point at Pei Zi Yun.
"Pu!" Pei Zi Yun's shadow flickered. Without a word, he stabbed the sword into the Earth Immortal's heart. With a twist, the Earth Immortal's heart was crushed into pieces.
"Why are you and I talking? Destroy your body and soul!"
A spiritual light emerged from the Earth Immortal's body and was about to escape. This time, Pei Zi Yun was prepared. With a point of his sword, lightning gathered and struck the Earth Immortal's Yin Spirit.
When the Yin Spirit saw the lightning, his expression changed. He was about to scream when the lightning landed on him. With a "peng" sound, the Yin Spirit turned into smoke.
After the Earth Immortal's avatar was destroyed, the incarnation's corpse immediately dried up. Even his hair turned white.
Pei Zi Yun swept his gaze across and heaved a sigh of relief. "Cheng Yuanzi, at this point in time, a mere clone wants to kill me? You aren't even willing to come out with your main body, aren't you being too cowardly? "
As Pei Zi Yun spoke, he looked at the treasure that the Earth Immortal had brought with him. As the Earth Immortal died, the mirror's glow dissipated, revealing its true form.
It was an ancient mirror with a rusted surface. There were ancient carvings on it. Pei Zi Yun picked it up and examined it closely. As he touched the surface of the mirror, he could feel the vicissitudes of life flowing into his heart, "This is the first time I've seen a treasure that can manifest its divinity. The carvings on it seem to be from ancient times."
"State Preceptor?" Thinking this way, he tried to decipher the words. Since he had the memories of many people, he could still recognize these words. Pei Zi Yun then muttered to himself, "It's getting blurry. Is this the Fixed Spirit?"
He closed his eyes and tried to refine the mirror.
"Ding!" Suddenly, a clear ringing sound rang out in his ears, repelling Pei Zi Yun's energy that was trying to invade his body. This resisting energy had an indescribable quality to it.
"What kind of energy is this? It's even stronger than the strength of an Earth Immortal? It can't be shaken. "
"But it's somewhat familiar." Pei Zi Yun frowned as he thought about it, "It's somewhat similar to my Dao Qi, but it's more dignified and dignified."
"There seems to be Imperial Qi within it, and it's perfectly fused together."
"Imperial Qi can fuse perfectly with Dao Qi? Could it be …. "Pei Zi Yun obtained the memories of many people and immediately thought of a name that had been erased from history.
Not only was there no trace of it in the history of the Imperial Court, even the records of the Daoist sects were fragmented. Only by combining the memories of many people could he piece together a little.
"Is it the Dao Monarch who was able to become a saint in the history of the Imperial Court?"
"He could have immediately established a Celestial Dynasty, and no one would be able to threaten me in the future."
"It's a pity that this person was influenced by the traditional way of thinking, and did not seize power to establish a Celestial Dynasty. In the end, the Imperial Court and the world reacted, and investigated his background. They then killed him in one fell swoop. It's just that his position was too high, and he could not be destroyed in a short period of time. Hence, he was sealed and slowly died."
"From then on, Dao Qi and Imperial Qi were separated, and could not be fused together."
"If it's a treasure crafted by this person, then it makes sense."
"Furthermore, for Dark Altar Sect to have such a treasure, could it be that this Dao Monarch's name was somehow related to him?"
"Interesting." Pei Zi Yun's heart was filled with an indescribable feeling. He frowned as he tried to refine the treasure. However, the backlash this time was much stronger than before. Pei Zi Yun took a step back, his face flushed red as he took a deep breath. His heart trembled, 'This is indeed a higher level of power. I can't refine it.'
'According to the teachings of the Daoist sects, this is a power that can only be produced when one's cultivation is at the peak. Only then can one's body become immortal.'
'I'm already close to becoming an Earth Immortal, but I'm still not there yet. I'm still an entire level away.'
Pei Zi Yun looked into the distance, and could hear the sounds of horses galloping towards him. He then thought of something, 'System!'
A Plum Blossom appeared before his eyes as it grew bigger and bigger, turning into a semi-transparent information interface. It floated in front of his eyes as data appeared before his eyes.
"Discovered a treasure left behind by a True Immortal. Do you want to refine it?"
"A treasure left behind by a True Immortal. Looks like my guess was right. This is the only True Immortal in this world."
"This must be the will or strength left behind by the Earth Immortal. No wonder I can't refine this treasure. Even Dark Altar Sect might not be able to refine it. They could only borrow it. If not, it would be much stronger than this."
"If I had it, Dark Altar Sect might be able to locate me. However, I'm afraid they wouldn't have guessed that I still have the Plum Blossom." Pei Zi Yun laughed and hesitated no longer, "Refine it!"
Following Pei Zi Yun's command, a loud boom could be heard as the power of the mirror was stimulated. It was like a bright moon, and within the bright moon, a Plum Blossom could be seen. This Plum Blossom had five different colored petals, as it flowed under the moonlight. As it grew bigger, the mirror's light vibrated violently, as if there was some sort of consciousness fighting against it.
"Zi zi zi"
The moonlight flickered as the Plum Blossom grew bigger and bigger, as if it was about to envelop the entire mirror. At this point, the moonlight shrunk and turned into a white light, wanting to escape. The Plum Blossom leaped up and chased after it.
"Pu!" The white light that escaped disappeared into thin air, as if it was being absorbed somewhere else. The mirror then lost its light and broke into pieces.
Pei Zi Yun was originally filled with anticipation, but when he saw the sudden change, he was stumped. He wanted to refine the mirror, not destroy it. However, there was nothing he could do to stop the mirror from breaking into pieces. When the wind blew, it turned into ashes.
Following this, the Plum Blossom spun around, as if it was changing. Little by little, it was clear that it was a Plum Blossom.
In the next moment, the Plum Blossom landed on Pei Zi Yun's body, as a strange energy filled his entire body.
"What is this?" Pei Zi Yun was shocked as he focused his primordial spirit on the Plum Blossom. Indeed, a small Plum Blossom had grown out of it. Not only that, the Plum Blossom was glowing with a special light.
"It's the mirror's Spiritual Light." Pei Zi Yun thought as he opened his eyes. The translucent information interface floated in front of him, giving off a faint sense of light.
"Soul Stabilizing Light, Level 1. Able to freeze the target for one second, ignoring any cultivation level below True Immortal."
"What?"
"Refine and absorb the energy from the mirror. That's normal. If I can find more treasures of this level, I might be able to learn more divine abilities."
"But this Plum Blossom can still grow?"
"This is something that's never happened before. I can't remember anything like this either." Pei Zi Yun's heart skipped a beat. At this point, the sound of horse hooves could be heard clearly. A cold smile appeared on his face as he turned around and headed towards the forest. He had a plan in mind.
The night was dark, as dark clouds covered the sky and the stars. Only a dim light could be seen, and the outline of the surroundings could be seen.
A group of cavalrymen galloped towards them, as the hooves of their horses stomped on the ground, causing mud to splash everywhere.
"Ai, it's a corpse?" Although the Blind Daoist was in the middle of a rainy night, he could see the corpse from afar. He then shouted for them to stop. At this point, the rain started to fall. The five hundred cavalrymen were like tigers and wolves, unaffected by the rain. They stopped immediately.
The Blind Daoist looked at the corpse and ordered, "Go and check if it's this person."
An officer leapt forward and inspected the corpse. He then raised his head, "It's the corpse of Dark Altar Sect's Cheng Yuan Zi."
"He was killed within a quarter of an hour, and the corpse is still elastic. We only heard the sound of the corpse within a quarter of an hour. I'm afraid this person is still nearby." The officer seemed to have a special way of identifying the corpse, as he recounted everything that had happened, as though he had seen it with his own eyes.
"Looks like this Pei Zi Yun didn't leave, and instead ambushed Cheng Yuan Zi." The Blind Daoist looked up at the darkening sky and let out a long sigh before saying, "After this incident, Cheng Yuan Zi's lifespan has been greatly reduced. Pei Zi Yun has actually helped me out. However, I still have to surround and kill you."
As he finished speaking, he ordered, "Pei Zi Yun can't have escaped far. Surround the forest and search for him."
"Yes!" The officers surrounded him.
One of the officers led his troops into the forest. The forest was dark and overgrown, and the leaves had all fallen off. As they stepped on the trees, the sound of branches breaking could be heard.
Although the officer had a ferocious look on his face, his eyes were filled with vigilance. He looked around, as demonic Qi emanated from his eyes. He could see everything clearly in front of him. Not far away, there were many trees and shrubs. With a swing of his blade, he cleared a path.
At this point, under a tree, a flash of light from a sword could be seen. The officer squinted his eyes and saw the figure behind the flash of light. It was Pei Zi Yun.
"Haha!" In the blink of an eye, the officer laughed out loud as he stared at Pei Zi Yun, "You've fallen into my trap!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he became one with his blade and charged forward without a care for his own safety. Although the flash of his blade wasn't exquisite, it carried with it a hint of wind and thunder. His blade technique was ferocious beyond compare, and was executed in one smooth motion. It was clear that he was following the path of military law.
At this point, the Blind Daoist and the other officers responded. Their shadows flashed as they pounced forward like leopards, forming a semicircle around Pei Zi Yun.
Amidst the flash of his blade, the officer had a cold expression on his face. He was a soldier and a wild beast, disregarding life and death. As long as he used his life to block the attack, Pei Zi Yun would fall into the encirclement.
"Military law?" Pei Zi Yun laughed as his lips moved. He then spoke in a silent voice, "You're wrong. You're the one who has fallen into my trap."
As he spoke, his eyes lit up. In a split second, the officer's vision was as bright as the moon.
