As this sigh sounded, the frost light of the Spirit Jade in the air grew even brighter. It continuously circled around the Mind Jade, as if it was "weaving" something.
A miraculous change was occurring.
Jiang Wang gripped his sword and asked in a low voice, "Is this Mind Jade of yours clean?"
This Mind Jade had clearly broken free from Su Qiyun's control.
She came from the Thieving Heaven Manor, which had a long history and preserved many antiques. The ancient record of Yan Xiao was one of them. But its origins might not be clean.
Perhaps something was hidden within this Mind Jade, which was why Jiang Wang asked this question.
Su Qiyun said with certainty, "This Mind Jade was personally repaired by my master. There's definitely no problem with it."
Even if there was a problem, it would have been resolved long ago. Her words showed that she had great confidence in her master's strength.
Jiang Wang didn't pursue the details.
The situation wasn't clear yet, so the three didn't act rashly. Apart from Wu Quji, who had set up a contingency plan, Jiang Wang and Su Qiyun only raised their guard and cautiously observed the Mind Jade's subsequent changes.
Of course, they were also prepared to act at any time.
The Mind Jade shone with a frosty light, appearing exceptionally bright and beautiful in the Forest Ocean Origin Realm's pitch-black night.
With the Mind Jade as the core, the frosty light condensed and gradually formed the outline of a human figure.
His nose, eyes, lips … gradually became clear.
Including his clothes and his hair … there was no hair.
This was a handsome bald man wearing snow-white monk robes. His eyes were deep and benevolent. He hovered in the air like a tree facing the wind.
A name quickly appeared in Jiang Wang's mind — Guan Yan!
The monk actually turned around and looked at Jiang Wang. He smiled warmly. "Little Annoyance mentioned me to you?"
The word "Little Annoyance" was spoken in a delicate and gentle manner.
However, Jiang Wang's mind was so shaken that he didn't care about this.
One had to know that he had only thought of the name Guan Yan in his mind and hadn't said it out loud, but this monk could understand. It was truly shocking and terrifying.
Apart from Mind Reading, what other explanation could there be?
Because of Ku Jue's entanglement, he spent a lot of effort to understand Buddhism. Naturally, he would have heard of such a famous divine ability like Mind Reading.
The so-called Thoughtsteal was also known as "Tathagata knows the thoughts of all living beings." Tell me the truth. "
It was a supreme divine ability of Buddhism. Those who could pluck such a divine ability were all famous eminent monks with great virtue.
And this Guan Yan actually had such a remarkable ability!
No wonder the Priest of the Sacred Clan was full of admiration when he mentioned Guan Yan. No wonder he could fight with Yan Xiao a few times when Yan Xiao was at his peak more than five hundred years ago.
However …
Wasn't Guan Yan already dead?
The grief of Old Lady Priest cannot be faked.
Moreover, if he had not died, with Yan Xiao's weakened strength, he should not have been able to survive until now.
Jiang Wang's heart was in turmoil.
The monk condensed from frost smiled again. "If 'death' is defined as the exhaustion of one's lifespan and the decay of one's physical body, then I am indeed dead."
Su Qiyun and Wu Quji looked at him with vigilance and confusion. They did not understand why he was "talking to himself" to Jiang Wang. Jiang Wang clearly did not say a word.
However, they still knew the name "Little Trouble". They had just heard Jiang Wang mention it. Thus, they could deduce it. Who was this monk in front of them?
A descender more than five hundred years ago. He had single-handedly led the Forest Ocean Sacred Clan's tradition of hunting. He had weakened Yan Xiao and predetermined today's outcome.
He was definitely an existence with great strength and great wisdom.
Then, was the problem with the passage out related to him?
"Since you are already dead, then what is it now?" Jiang Wang asked this question aloud.
"I borrowed this young friend's Spirit Jade to temporarily manifest." Guan Yan's voice was gentle. There was a kind of gentleness that entered the heart from the ear. "I have long been left with a bit of true spirit, wandering in the cracks of this world."
Jiang Wang and the others looked at each other.
Who was he trying to fool?
The outcome of having a bit of true spirit remaining was only slightly better than being turned into ashes.
How could a bit of true spirit manifest and use a Divine Ability? And a Divine Ability on the level of Mind Reading?
"I know you have a lot of questions."
Guan Yan floated to the ground and purposely stepped on it twice with some satisfaction.
Then, he looked at the three and said, "The answers are all here."
… …
His Mind Reading allowed him to know his heart and understand his intentions.
It also allowed him to know his heart and understand his intentions.
At this moment, Jiang Wang and the others had entered a strange perspective. They were overlooking history.
If they had to make an analogy, it was very similar to what Jiang Wang felt when he first entered the Great Illusionary Realm and had not yet formed his illusory body.
It was a detached yet realistic perspective. It was attached to Guan Yan and tracked his memories.
The first thing they saw was the Forest Ocean Origin World more than five hundred years ago. It was also the Forest Ocean Origin World's darkest period.
Slaughter, blood, hatred, pain.
Their previous guesses were not wrong.
They saw the Forest Ocean Origin World more than five hundred years ago in Guan Yan's memories.
Countless Sacred Race warriors, wearing clothes woven from spirit silk and wielding weapons made from Divine Dragonwood, caused a storm of blood in the Forest Ocean Origin World.
Tribes were breached one after another. Heads were chopped off one after another to be preserved.
On the other hand, the heads were sacrificed to Yan Xiao through a ceremony. Yan Xiao ate the heads and digested their hatred, growing stronger and stronger.
The stronger Yan Xiao became, the more the Forest Ocean Sacred Race could not resist, so they hunted down the other tribes even more viciously.
This was a vicious cycle.
One tribe after another migrated, fled, and disappeared. There was no day in the Forest Ocean Origin World that did not fight and kill.
Guan Yan descended in such an era.
The fourteen "Dragon God Envoys" who descended at the same time as him were all hunted down by the Forest Ocean Sacred Race and sacrificed.
He was the only one who encountered a Forest Ocean Sacred Race member who was as pure as a stream.
Guan Yan didn't sense any evil intent from her.
Not only did she not attack him, she even covered for him in front of her clansmen. She protected him time and time again.
After experiencing many things together, he fell in love with this girl.
He was determined to create a peaceful environment for such a beautiful girl and end the dark era of the Forest Ocean Origin World.
Because of this girl. Guan Yan believed that the reason the Forest Ocean Origin World was in such chaos was because of Yan Xiao. As long as Yan Xiao was eliminated, the Forest Ocean Sacred Race would no longer need to kill and sacrifice the heads of other tribes.
He reached the Outer Pavilion Realm in the Forest Ocean Origin World and then went to find Yan Xiao.
However, from the time Yan Xiao appeared to the time of Guan Yan's arrival, he had already consumed three hundred years of heads and resentment.
Its strength was incomparably terrifying.
The Yan Xiao he saw in Guan Yan's memory and the Yan Xiao who had been weakened for five hundred years and was still in a weak state when fighting against Jiang Wang and the others, there was a world of difference in strength.
Guan Yan's strength was already terrifying, but he still failed.
The girl he named Xiao Fan risked her life to save him, and even stole the Origin Water from the clan for him to consume. However, he was punished by the elders of the clan and was whipped for three days …
Guan Yan did not give up. He cultivated while looking for an opportunity.
This opportunity was Snake Concealment.
At that time, the Snake Concealment was ten times larger than it was now.
Of course, it was only one of the Forest Ocean Sacred Race's prey.
Guan Yan used a scheme to kill the Snake King and the "Heavenly Robe Secret Art" he had obtained in his early years to create the Concealment Robe. He hid in the Forest of Hanging Skulls and observed Yan Xiao.
This observation lasted for an entire year.
It was also because of this that he discovered the secret of Yan Xiao's hatred as the source of its power.
