With a thought, Li Qingshan waved his hand, and the pieces of the Spirit Turtle's Profound Shell formed a smooth mirror. The mirror clearly reflected his appearance.
However, the scene in the mirror was not the bottom of the lake, but underground.
Li Qingshan sat down in the underground cavern, constantly gathering spiritual qi to maintain the existence of his mirror clone. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and gazed out with his other vision, but all he saw was empty space.
Bang!
Li Qingshan waved his hand and pressed his fingers against the mirror. The mirror clone stood up and leapt into the air, vanishing into the cavern.
The mirror distorted, reflecting the pitch-black bottom of the lake before returning to normal.
Afterwards, Li Qingshan's figure emerged from the mirror just like that.
Without wasting Li Qingshan's daemon qi, the clone was still the same clone, directly summoned to his side from underground.
Li Qingshan smiled. After refining Moon Court lake, he gained a deeper understanding of the changes to the two innate abilities of the spirit turtle. He became more and more proficient with them, and the more he comprehended, the more he found them to be filled with endless mysteries.
From that moment onwards, the mirror clone was no longer just an image condensed from daemon qi. It was even more closely connected to his original body.
Li Qingshan suddenly swung the Dragon Seizing bident and pierced the clone's hand. Afterwards, he raised his right hand in thought. When the clone's hand was pierced, he felt a piercing pain as well. A red mark was left behind.
In other words, if my clone is injured, my original body will be injured too? This Watermirror's Image really isn't as simple as it seems.
This seemed like a bad thing. Li Qingshan could no longer use his clone as cannon fodder without any qualms anymore. But in reality. To the current Li Qingshan, it was extremely good news.
Ignoring everything else, he could pass the god seal to his clone without worry. His clone would be responsible for gathering water spiritual qi in the lake for him. When he needed it, he could come and receive it. If he encountered a powerful enemy, he could directly summon his clone back to his side. He did not have to worry about losing the god seal, and his original body would just have to retrieve the intestines.
The only thing he regretted was that he could only summon his doppelganger. If his main body could pass through the surface of the mirror, wouldn't that be a thousand miles teleportation? That would be more useful than any escape technique. It was equivalent to having an extra life.
However, this was only the beginning. Li Qingshan could sense that the mysteries of the Watermirror's Image had only revealed the tip of the iceberg.
"It's him!"
Li Qingshan suddenly raised his head and felt a familiar aura on the lake.
"Fellow Daoist North Moon, I'm Hwa Seung-zan of the Legalist School. I've come to pay my respects," said Hwa Seung-zan as he arrived on the lake. Then, he turned around. He said to Han Tieyi, "Why are you following me?"
"I'm willing."
"Alright then!" Hwa Seung-zan said helplessly. In any case, there probably wouldn't be any danger during this trip.
"Come down!" Li Qingshan said loudly. The surface of the lake suddenly split into two. In the middle, there was a water staircase that extended downwards.
Han Tieyi revealed a vigilant expression. He had entered a water region controlled by a powerful water demon. It was no different from entering a dragon's pool or a tiger's den. However, when he saw Hwa Seung-zan descending the staircase, he could only follow. Thinking that even if they didn't enter the water, they were no match for the Moon Devil.
There was a long passageway in front of them, and they were walking in it. They could clearly see the scenery at the bottom of the water.
Suddenly, two spots of light lit up in the dark water region. A demonic aura rapidly approached. Hwa Seung-zan stopped and turned around. He saw a huge red carp swimming toward them and pouncing toward them.
Han Tieyi held a spear in his hand, ready to strike. However, he was held down by Hwa Seung-zan.
With a splash, the big red carp leaped across the passageway and brushed past them.
Han Tieyi put down his spear, and the two of them continued forward. Their field of vision suddenly widened. The passageway led to a large hall. There were no pillars, only an empty space. The shape was like a drop of water that had fallen on the ground.
There was a tall throne in the middle. The Moon Devil sat on it. The big red carp swam up from the "floor". It moved closer to him and opened its mouth wide.
The Moon Devil smiled and patted the big fish's head. He fed it a pill. "You're really bold. Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to resist killing you?"
Then, he looked at the few oversized crab demons, turtle demons, and prawn demons hiding under the water. He scolded, "You cowards. If you don't come up now, I'll cook you for soup!"
They swam over in a hurry and lined up on the two sides. They were all the prawn soldiers and crab generals that Li Qingshan had subdued with the Dragon Seizing bident. They were not powerful, but they could still hold their ground after all.
Hwa Seung-zan had no idea how to react inside. Everyone in the Clear River prefecture knew about the Moon Devil's brutality, but when he saw it in person, he would always feel a slight difference.
However, as he approached the throne, he immediately sensed the powerful aura from him. It was heavy, violent, tranquil, and melded together. It was indescribable. The further he went, the stronger the pressure became. When he was still ten meters away from the throne, he stopped. He actually felt like he could not get any closer.
"What have you come for? Have you come to congratulate me? Or have you come to kill me? " Li Qingshan's eyes turned cold. He stared at his two old friends from the Hundred Schools of Thought with a burning gaze. He did not want to appear too polite, just in case they saw through him and ruin the Moon Devil's reputation.
Hwa Seung-zan only felt a surging malice crash towards him like a tsunami. Han Tieyi took a step forward and held his spear horizontally, blocking Hwa Seung-zan.
"Piss off, all of you! Oh, I'm not talking about you! "
Li Qingshan withdrew his aura and cursed as he pointed down. As it turned out, before Hwa Seung-zan and Han Tieyi had done anything, the turtle daemon had already retreated into its shell, while the crab daemons and prawn monsters had curled up into a ball out of fright. When they heard the order, they immediately felt like they had been pardoned, fleeing into the water in a hurry.
"I want to ask fellow North Moon to return senior Zhou Tong's Lightning Slaughter wooden sword." Hwa Seung-zan knew that with his status, he did not have the qualifications to discuss war or peace with North Moon. His request for the Lightning Slaughter wooden sword was more of a test.
Before the situation was settled, rashly coming into contact with the Moon Devil would definitely cause him to be criticized. However, if his goal was to return Zhou Tong's Lightning Slaughter wooden sword, then things would be different.
"Zhou Tong? Who's that?"
"It's the Daoist priest who used lightning to fight you last time."
"Oh, you're talking about this!" Li Qingshan came to a sudden realization. He took out the Lightning Slaughter wooden sword and tossed it lightly in his hand. Electricity surged and flowed.
"But why should I return it to you? This is my spoil of war. "
"The Lightning Slaughter wooden sword is useless to you, fellow daoist. Can we use something else to exchange for it?"
Li Qingshan leaned forward and raised his eyebrows. "Right now, aren't your lives and hundred treasures pouches mine?"
"If fellow daoist really wants it, then come and take it!"
Hwa Seung-zan spread his arms in a carefree manner.
However, he was extremely nervous inside. According to his deductions, the North Moon had not even directly killed the Demon Slayer Yang Pinghu, sparing him. The chances of him killing them were almost zero. However, daoists were fickle. They could not be judged with common sense. No matter how clever a person was, it was impossible to avoid all accidents.
Li Qingshan laughed aloud. With a wave of his hand, the water palace collapsed loudly. Water surged in from all directions.
Just when Hwa Seung-zan and Han Tieyi thought he was going to attack, Li Qingshan leapt up gently and vanished into the waves.
"I heard that there's a treasure in the Hundred Schools of Thought called the Watermirror disc. If you want the sword back, you'll have to use the Watermirror disc to exchange for it!"
After seeing the Watermirror disc for the first time, Li Qingshan was interested. There seemed to be a fortuitous encounter between him and the spirit turtle's ability, the Watermirror's Image. If he could obtain it, his comprehension of the Watermirror's Image might reach an even higher level.
Li Qingshan passed the Water God Seal to his mirror clone before concealing all of his aura. He returned to the Chain mountains silently with Little Ann.
In Moon Court lake, Li Qingshan controlled his clone to swim towards a small lake near Moon Court lake. The quality of the Water God Seal was indeed extraordinary. Even Moon Court lake was unable to fill it completely. There was still some space at the edges.
However, it was impossible for it to hold another Clear river. What Li Qingshan needed to do was continue refining the water in the surroundings until it filled up the Water God Seal.
Arriving before the small lake, the Water God Seal shone brightly. Li Qingshan threw himself into it, but he did not use his own daemon qi to refine it. Instead, he used the spiritual qi of the entire Moon Court lake.
In less than two hours, his aura had filled the entire lake, adding another region of water and power to the Water God Seal.
Li Qingshan smiled. Sure enough, it was just like how it was written in the books. After grasping a larger body of water, refining the smaller ones in the surroundings became extremely easy.
Afterwards, Li Qingshan continued to work hard, refining most of the water in the surroundings. Finally, he filled up the Water God Seal. The tremendous water spiritual qi was boundless, like it was about to overflow. It left Li Qingshan's mind in turmoil.
Suddenly, there was a flash of inspiration in his head. The mental cultivation method of the Arts of the Boundless Ocean appeared in his head.
Although Moon Court lake was still incomparable to a true ocean, it already had the atmosphere of an ocean. It was greatly beneficial to Li Qingshan's path of human cultivation. It was truly like the saying, 'a willow planted unintentionally becomes a shade'.
Li Qingshan believed that as long as he was given some time to quietly comprehend and comprehend, he would definitely achieve a breakthrough in the Arts of the Boundless Ocean. No matter how impressive the Eon Sea Sect was, it was impossible for them to possess a body of water to cultivate in.
Was this the limit? Of course not.
After all, there was no such thing as a god seal in the world. It was something that was condensed from nothing. The greatest value of this Water God Seal was to break through the seals of the nine province cauldrons.
Li Qingshan arrived at the mouth of a small river that flowed into Clear Court Lake. His expression turned slightly solemn.
At the same time, Hwa Seung-zan brought Li Qingshan's conditions back to the Hundred Schools of Thought. Another emergency meeting was held. And this time, Li Qingshan was not absent.
When the news from the Hundred Schools of Thought arrived, he rushed over with Little Ann. At this moment, he was sitting together with Little Ann to see if he could achieve his goal.
"Watermirror disc, absolutely not!"
Liu Changqing refused immediately. The Watermirror disc was the ultimate treasure of the Hundred Schools of Thought. It was wielded by generations of Confucian family heads. Its origins were extremely ancient. It was said to be a relic left behind by ancient cultivators. Its value could not even be evaluated by current Spirit artifacts or Arcane artifacts.
Although it did not have the slightest bit of offensive or defensive power, this in itself proved that its value was extraordinary.
Liu Changqing believed that he had not fully unleashed its power. How could he be willing to hand it over to a fiendish demon?
