"He said it was the Fallen Immortal …"
Miao Yi shook off the bloodstains and sheathed his sword artifact. He briefly explained what had happened.
After listening to him, Sikong Wuwei immediately cursed, "Damn it. I was wondering why this bastard suddenly dragged us into a bath, and then suddenly told us to be careful while we were bathing. He was purposely luring us away."
However, Zhao Fei walked over to the stone table and picked up a bowl of wine to sniff. He didn't detect anything strange. If the Fallen Immortal could be detected so easily, it wouldn't be called the Fallen Immortal.
He then turned around and left, causing everyone to wonder what he was up to. After a while, he brought back a rat and they finally understood what he was trying to do.
Invoking his arts, Miao Yi summoned a small ball of wine with his finger and forced it into the rat's mouth.
Zhao Fei had his own independent thoughts. He wasn't the kind of person who would blindly follow what others said. In other words, he wouldn't believe whatever Miao Yi said. He only trusted his own judgment.
However, it was too obvious. Sikong Wuwei secretly watched Miao Yi's reaction. Miao Yi didn't react. He expressionlessly let Zhao Fei try.
Soon, the rat trembled violently in Zhao Fei's hand. In the blink of an eye, it died with blood flowing out of its orifices. Even a cultivator couldn't withstand it, let alone a rat.
Zhao Fei casually tossed the rat's corpse away. He then frowned and asked, "I have two questions. Since you suspected there was something wrong with the wine, why did you drink it? Secondly, why are you fine after drinking it? "
"I drank it because I wanted to confirm if the two of you had anything to do with this incident." Miao Yi didn't hide anything and told them the truth.
Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei exchanged glances.
"As for why I'm fine after drinking it, I can't tell you the reason." Miao Yi then took out the Mystic Yin Mirror.
This move shocked Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei, especially Sikong Wuwei, who had tasted the Mystic Yin Mirror before. He didn't expect Miao Yi to casually toss it to him.
Catching the Mystic Yin Mirror, Sikong Wuwei was stunned, as was Zhao Fei. Neither of them knew what Miao Yi meant.
Miao Yi pointed at the Mystic Yin Mirror and said to Sikong Wuwei, "Why don't you take a look at this Mystic Yin Mirror and see what's so special about it?"
Even if Miao Yi didn't say anything, Sikong Wuwei still wanted to take a look. He immediately invoked his arts to examine it.
Zhao Fei stared at him in shock. This was because he could feel a wave of cold air coming from Sikong Wuwei's body. What was even more strange was that in the blink of an eye, frost appeared and wrapped around Sikong Wuwei, freezing him.
"You …" Zhao Fei abruptly turned to look at Miao Yi. The Square Sky Decorated Halberd appeared in his hand as he looked at Miao Yi cautiously. He thought that Miao Yi was going to attack the two of them.
"There's no need to panic. I mean you no harm!" Miao Yi walked up and took back the Mystic Yin Mirror. Then, he reached out and placed his hand on Sikong Wuwei's shoulder. The snow-white frost surrounding Sikong Wuwei instantly melted.
Soon enough. "Ugh …" Sikong Wuwei let out a muffled groan as he slowly regained his senses. He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of cold air as he shivered. He stared at the Mystic Yin Mirror in Miao Yi's hand and said with a lingering fear, "This damned thing actually hid so much cold Yin energy inside. No wonder …" His eyes darted around, and he couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Zhao Fei. "Zhao Fei, why are you holding a weapon?"
Seeing that Sikong Wuwei was fine, Zhao Fei heaved a sigh of relief and put away the Square Sky Decorated Halberd. Unexpectedly, Miao Yi handed him the Mystic Yin Mirror and said, "You try it too."
"This …" Zhao Fei was a little speechless. Sikong Wuwei's eyes lit up as he shoved the Mystic Yin Mirror into Miao Yi's hand and urged, "Try it. Try invoking your arts."
Zhao Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why did the treasure that everyone coveted seem a little troublesome now? However, after examining the Mystic Yin Mirror for a while, he braced himself and imbued his transcendence energy into it to investigate. He wanted to know what was going on with this Mystic Yin Mirror as well.
The results were obvious. Just like Sikong Wuwei, Zhao Fei was frozen in place.
"Hehe!" Sikong Wuwei immediately had a look of schadenfreude on his face.
Miao Yi wasn't trying to mess with Zhao Fei. It was just that some things were easier to convince people with facts. He quickly helped Zhao Fei recover.
Only then did Miao Yi say, "Haven't you two always wanted to know why Zhao Lingtu was killed so easily? I believe you should know the reason now. "
Both of them nodded. They stared at the Mystic Yin Mirror in Miao Yi's hand, unsure if they loved or hated it. Zhao Fei sighed and said, "It seems like only Ghost Cultivators can wield this Mystic Yin Mirror. That's not right … "He looked at Miao Yi and asked," Why can you wield it? "
Miao Yi asked, "Don't tell me that dispelling the Yin energy in your bodies wasn't enough to explain why I can wield it?"
Both of them had a pensive look on their faces as they slowly nodded. Seeing that Miao Yi wasn't willing to explain in detail, it wouldn't be good to pry into his privacy.
Miao Yi tucked the Mystic Yin Mirror away. With a flip of his hands, he took out the Spirit Illusion Greatsword and the Mountain Suppressing Hammer. He tossed the former to Zhao Fei and the latter to Sikong Wuwei.
Both of them caught a transcendent artifact each and looked at each other, unsure of what was going on. Did he want them to try it out again?
"Although it's a good thing to have another transcendent artifact, the Mystic Yin Mirror isn't suitable for the two of you at all. You should be able to use these two. There are three transcendent artifacts. We'll each take one. That should be fair, "Miao Yi said.
Both of them were shocked when they heard this, and even Qi Xiuhong was visibly moved.
Many people had died trying to snatch these transcendent artifacts. Zhao Lingtu, Lu Siping, and even Wang Yuetian had lost their lives. Now that Miao Yi had taken the initiative to give away these transcendent artifacts, the three of them could only imagine how shocked they were.
Sikong Wuwei asked cautiously, "Are you really giving it to us?"
Miao Yi nodded in confirmation. Zhao Fei asked suspiciously, "Why are you giving it to us?"
"Isn't that enough to explain the situation?" Miao Yi pointed at Wang Yuetian's corpse and said solemnly, "Because I don't want to see something like this happen again! At the same time, it's also for self-preservation. Even if the Mystic Yin Mirror ends up in your hands, you won't be able to use it. Even if you manage to snatch it away from the Western Star Sea, it'll be nothing more than a piece of scrap metal. You can only exchange it for something if you manage to leave the Sea of Constellations alive. I don't want to see any more infighting between us. If this goes on, none of us will be able to leave the Sea of Constellations alive. If any of you think that one transcendent artifact is too little, you have no use for my Mystic Yin Mirror anyway. There's no need to fight me to the death. You might even lose your lives in the process. After all, I'm no pushover. So, if you want to snatch it, you two can do it among yourselves. This has nothing to do with me. Since I've already given the transcendent artifact to you, I won't stay out of it. You don't have to be on guard against me. "
As soon as he said this, Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei broke out in a cold sweat. 'You're basically putting the blame on me. You'll be able to escape, but you'll have to worry about the both of us.'
"Zhao Fei. You're not really thinking of snatching my transcendent artifact, are you?" Sikong Wuwei glared at him and threatened.
Zhao Fei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Even though the transcendent artifact is good, it's not as important as my own life. To me, staying alive is my top priority. Leaving the Sea of Constellations alive is more important than anything else. Don't worry. I definitely won't try to steal your Mountain Suppressing Hammer."
"Are you serious? I'm afraid you can't judge a book by its cover. Didn't he look like he was trying to get along with us just now? "Sikong Wuwei gestured towards Wang Yuetian with his lips, then turned around and threatened," Why should I believe you? I'm warning you. If you dare to have any improper thoughts about me, I will smash you into a meat patty with my hammer. You've seen the might of my Mountain Suppressing Hammer for yourself. It can counter your Spirit Illusion Greatsword! "
If Zhao Lingtu could come back to life, he would definitely tell Sikong Wuwei, 'You're overthinking things. The Mountain Suppressing Hammer can't counter the Spirit Illusion Greatsword at all. I was just lucky that time!
How could I have any improper thoughts about a man like you? Even if I did, it would be for the transcendent artifact in your hands. I won't even say a word! '
Zhao Fei rolled his eyes and waved his hand to explain, "Sikong, listen to me. Anyone would love to have three transcendent artifacts in their hands. However, a single person won't be able to fully unleash the full might of all three transcendent artifacts. The transcendence energy required to control three top-grade Second Grade Transcendent Artifacts at the same time is not something a single person can sustain. Not to mention, you and I can't use the Mystic Yin Mirror. Brother Miao can see this very clearly. The three of us each have one transcendent artifact in our hands. Only by learning from each other's strengths and working together can we truly unleash the full might of all three transcendent artifacts. Only by working together will we have the highest chance of leaving the Sea of Constellations alive. If we can't even survive with the combined might of all three transcendent artifacts, what's the point of one person taking all three of them? In the end, they'll still end up in someone else's hands. That's why we can't have internal strife and waste our strength! Even if we do have internal strife, now is definitely not the time. Just like what Brother Miao said, we'll live and die together for nine years. Can't we wait until the last year to turn against each other? "
"It's good that you understand!" Sikong Wuwei scoffed. However, his expression soon changed to one of joy. He turned around and ran off, saying, "I'm going to test out the might of the Mountain Suppressing Hammer!"
Zhao Fei looked at the Spirit Illusion Greatsword in his hand and felt a little itchy, so he followed Sikong Wuwei out as well.
Qi Xiuhong, who had been watching from the sidelines all this while, looked at Miao Yi with a peculiar gaze. She was getting to know Miao Yi from a different perspective. Two top-tier Second Grade Transcendent Artifacts, and yet Miao Yi just gave them away like that. How decisive was he?
Miao Yi slowly exhaled. Everyone loved treasures, but sometimes, there was a price to pay. His own strength was limited, so he needed to have someone to rely on. Relying on his own cultivation to hold onto three transcendent artifacts would only lead to his death. There was no need to cling onto something good and not let go of it. Otherwise, there would be endless chaos in the future!
He turned back to look at Wang Yuetian's corpse and couldn't help but sigh. He was starting to miss Lao Bai. The cultivation art that Lao Bai had passed on to him had been a great help to him time and time again. How many times had he managed to escape death by relying on this cultivation art? Otherwise, he would've died many times over.
Miao Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh as he thought of that magnificent man with a temperament as if he was sitting on the clouds. In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed. A mortal's lifespan was limited, and Lao Bai must have passed away long ago. It was a pity that he didn't get to see him one last time.
Rumble! Miao Yi's thoughts were pulled back to reality by the rumbling of the ground outside.
He walked over to Wang Yuetian's corpse and removed his storage rings and other items. He then turned to Qi Xiuhong and said, "Let's move to another room."
