Three years later, in the Dark Empire's Dark Capital's Heavenly Fragrance Tavern, a man and a woman wearing a black trench coat with red clouds sat at a table by the window. "Vermillion Bird, I didn't expect us to be the first two to arrive."
"Yes, that's right. If we knew this would happen, we would have come later. I hate waiting for people the most." The beauty called Vermillion Bird sat on a stool beside them and said gloomily.
"Haha, who made our beautiful Vermillion Bird angry? Tell me, I'll help you take care of him." At that moment, a loud voice rang out from the second floor. A white-haired man wearing the same clothes and carrying three swords on his back walked up. Behind him was a beautiful woman who smiled at the Vermillion Bird.
"Tsk, White Tiger, you still have the nerve to say that? You and Sister Black Tortoise are so unrestrained when you're together. As for me, I've been spending all day with Kong Chen, that deadpan man. My face is almost paralyzed." Upon hearing White Tiger's words, Vermillion Bird rolled her eyes in annoyance and angrily gulped down the wine in her cup. Kong Chen, on the other hand, sat there helplessly without saying a word.
"Hehe, I don't know what Zero was thinking when he put you and Kong Chen in the same group. With your personality, the two of you are really …" White Tiger looked at Vermillion Bird's gloomy face and wanted to laugh but did not dare to. Vermillion Bird's personality was like her bloodline. She was naturally lively and could not calm down. Being with Kong Chen, who did not talk much and liked to be quiet, it would be strange if she did not feel depressed.
"Hehe, you're all here." At this moment, a man and a woman wearing the same clothes walked up the stairs. The man had fiery red hair and carried a spear on his back. As for the woman behind him, she gave off an illusory feeling, as if she did not belong to this world.
"Okay. Big Dipper and Jade Maiden, you're here too. Only Zero and Three are left. When Zero and One arrive, we can begin," White Tiger said, nodding.
"Pfft, do you think Zero will arrive so soon? It would be strange if nothing happened to him and Little Yu on the way," Vermillion Bird said with a smirk as he lay on the table.
"Uh, that's true." Hearing Vermilion Bird's words, Big Dipper walked up to find a seat, rubbed his nose, and said with a smile.
"Haha, Vermillion Bird, how did you know that I wouldn't arrive so soon?" At this moment, a man and a woman walked up the stairs. The man carried a fan-like weapon on his back. His eyes were blood-red while the woman behind him was blushing.
"Vermilion Bird. I'm going to ignore you. How dare you talk to me like that! "The woman walked up and looked at the Vermillion Bird as she said angrily.
"Haha, Little Yu, don't be angry. I was just joking." Vermillion Bird hurriedly smiled apologetically.
These people were naturally Ren Tianyou's group from the Akatsuki. On the island, Ren Tianyou's original plan was to cultivate for two years. However, he didn't expect that because he needed to cultivate too many things, two years was simply not enough. At the same time, White Tiger and the others also reached the most critical moment of their cultivation and had no choice but to go into seclusion. Just like that, their cultivation time was extended by one more year. At the last moment, Ren Tianyou finally caught up and completed his cultivation plan.
And in these three years, Ren Tianyou didn't forget to look for the Dragon Island. Regarding this hidden opponent, Ren Tianyou didn't dare to be careless. After all, they used to be one of the overlords of the Divine Wind Continent. Although they suffered heavy losses due to the invasion of the Demon Race several tens of thousands of years ago, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Their strength shouldn't be underestimated. If they were to secretly stab him in the back at a critical moment, then he would suffer.
However, Ren Tianyou searched for three years and didn't find any trace of the Dragon Island. In the boundless ocean, how could it be easy to find an island?
Finally, after finishing his cultivation, Ren Tianyou decided to use the strategy of luring the snake out of its hole. His target was the Origin of Mana. Originally, Ren Tianyou's target was the Ximen Clan. He wanted to use this opportunity to eradicate them in one fell swoop, but after thinking for a bit, Ren Tianyou decided to give up.
Because the headquarters of the Ximen Clan was in the Imperial Capital of the Ellery Empire, if he made a move, it would cause a huge reaction. At that time, the members of the imperial clan of the Ellery Empire wouldn't allow him to do whatever he wanted. Maybe, the other clans in the Imperial Capital wouldn't just stand by and watch. So, Ren Tianyou set his target on the Origin of Mana.
First, he could help the fairy maiden fulfill her wish, kill Ling Yanqi, one of the four controllers of the Origin of Mana, and help her avenge the death of her entire clan.
Second, Ren Tianyou wanted to use this opportunity to stir up chaos in the continent. If the news that he was about to invade the Origin of Mana spread, then the Ximen Clan and the Dragon Race would definitely take action. At that time, Ren Tianyou could rely on his own methods to capture a dragon and force it to speak. Then, he would be able to find the location of the Dragon Island.
After drawing up the plan, Ren Tianyou divided the eight members of the Akatsuki into groups. Vermillion Bird and Kong Chen were in one group, Seven Star and Fairy Maiden were in another group, and White Tiger and his big sister Yue 'er, codenamed Black Tortoise, were in another group.
It was worth mentioning that after three years of cultivation, all the members of the Akatsuki had advanced to the God realm by relying on the power of the Spring of Life as well as their extraordinary innate talent. As for White Tiger, Kong Chen, and Seven Star, they had advanced to the Midgod realm. It could be said that they were extremely heaven defying.
And under Ren Tianyou's guidance, Mu Yue had also entered the Jonin realm. So far, she had already mastered the transformation of three attributes, but she had yet to fuse them together.
"Well, since that is the case, let's start. Fairy Maiden, it's up to you." Ren Tianyou walked to the fairy maiden and said.
"Okay, just watch." Fairy Maiden faintly smiled, then walked to an open space on the second floor and sat down cross-legged, preparing to cast the spell.
"Seven Star, go guard the entrance of the stairs, don't let anyone enter the second floor." Ren Tianyou turned his head and said to Seven Star. Although the entire second floor had been booked by Ren Tianyou and others, it was inevitable that someone would trespass, so it was better to make arrangements first.
"No problem." Seven Star responded, then kicked a table at the side with his right foot. Suddenly, the table flew to the side of the stairs. Seven Star jumped on top of the table and sat down cross-legged. He held the spear in his right hand and guarded the entrance of the stairs, not letting anyone enter the second floor.
"Illusory Space Flow Bloodline, open!" The fairy maiden who was sitting cross-legged on the floor suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and shouted. Suddenly, an illusory aura emerged from her body. This was the bloodline that the fairy maiden had obtained after advancing to the Realm of the Gods. Her body had been baptized by the elemental storm and evolved into the Illusory Space Flow Bloodline.
The fairy maiden stretched out her soft white right hand, and the white light on her body quickly gathered on her right hand. Then, she pointed with her right index finger, and the white light gathered on her right hand quickly floated in front of her.
"Illusory Space of Heaven and Earth, All Things Flow; Illusory Sky, Dazzling Light Mirror, condense!"
As the jade maiden chanted, the white light condensed on her right index finger slowly solidified. It transformed into a white energy mirror that appeared in front of the jade maiden.
On the surface of the white mirror, there were many images that kept rotating, dazzling the eyes. In the end, the image on the mirror stopped at a certain image.
On the image, there was a huge valley. In the valley, there was a tall tower that lit up with a powerful magic halo. In the sky above the valley, there was a huge barrier that surrounded the entire valley.
After seeing the valley, a cold light flashed in the jade lady's eyes. A white light floated out of her body and directly entered the mirror, disappearing without a trace.
"Haha, the show has begun. Next, let's sit here and watch the show." Ren Tianyou laughed heartily and found a place to sit down. He picked up the wine glass on the table and slowly sipped while looking at the energy mirror with a smile on his face. The other members of the Akatsuki also understood what the maidenhead wanted to do, so they also imitated Ren Tianyou and looked at the energy mirror with a smile on their faces.
