As a matter of fact, Nan Jue was no longer interested in the wooden clapper. She was more interested in Mofan's artifact. Otherwise, she would not have purposely dragged him to the side.
The wooden clapper's level was very high. None of them were able to break through its Magic Formation. The artifact was able to nurture a terrifying demon spirit like Nara Orisora in just a few years. It was no ordinary artifact!
If the artifact was afraid of Mofan, the only explanation was that Mofan had a stronger artifact on him!
"I already mentioned that a really strong artifact has a soul. They even have a temper and personality like many living creatures, and are able to resonate with their master's emotions. There's also a difference between different artifacts, just like the aura and intimidation of a creature with a higher lineage. This wooden clapper is strongly against you. It won't let you touch it even after you've killed the demon spirit. It simply means it's afraid of something on you. I'm guessing your artifact has some kind of devouring ability. The wooden clapper is only stopping you from touching it to protect itself, "Nan Jue's eyes glittered when she mentioned the artifact.
She was a fanatic when it came to magic equipment. She was already interested in studying the wooden clapper, yet she had accidentally discovered a greater secret on Mofan!
It was very strong, it was definitely very strong. The artifact that Mofan had was extremely strong!
"Hehe … are you kidding me? I'm just a poor man. I'm nothing compared to rich people like you. My Mo Family has at most given me a handsome face that countless girls are attracted to. There's nothing else, like a Spirit-grade artifact or a Soul-grade artifact," Mofan said with a hollow laugh.
Damn it, Nan Jue was a monster. She was able to deduce the existence of the Little Loach Pendant. Mofan admitted that the Little Loach Pendant was indeed interested in the wooden clapper, but the artifact was not to be trifled with, either. Its powerful Magic Formation had prevented Mofan from devouring it.
"That's enough. I know that no one would easily reveal such a big secret. I haven't studied the wooden clapper thoroughly yet. I don't think I'll be able to see anything even if you let me take a look at your treasure. However, I believe you will need my help one day, when you need to uncover its secrets, "Nan Jue was a sensible person. She did not ask any further.
Mofan let out a relieved sigh.
The Little Loach Pendant was a great secret that he had never revealed to anyone. Even Miss Tangyue, who had seen it before, was unaware of its insane ability to refine Soul Essences...
"By the way, aren't you curious why you're the only one who can see the demon spirit in the wooden clapper?" Nan Jue smiled.
"Oh?" Mofan raised his eyebrows. At this moment, he felt that Nan Jue was also a cunning fox. It was better not to reveal any flaws so easily.
"Your artifact should be related to the wooden clapper. If you have time, you can go to the central island of West Lake in Hangzhou and take a look at the murals there. Maybe you'll be able to find something," Nan Jue said.
"I've already been there," Mofan replied.
"What about Tianshan Mountain?" Nan Jue asked.
"I've never been to Tianshan Mountain. What's there?" Mofan was immediately interested.
"It's a similar ancient word. Unfortunately, I haven't found the translation of these ancient words. Otherwise, everything would be solved, "Nan Jue said.
"Oh, oh, I'll go take a look if I have the chance," Mofan nodded.
When Nan Jue saw Mofan's expression, she smiled knowingly.
This guy was still trying to deny that he had the artifact. She had only given him some clues, and he had already exposed himself.
"By the way, what do you mean by a Companion Vessel?" Mofan asked.
"A Companion Vessel is a special kind of vessel that is perfectly merged with a human's soul. No one can take it away from them, unless they shatter their master's soul. A person can only have one Companion Vessel. The wooden clapper is also a Companion Vessel. You already have one, so you're giving it to Zhao Manyan instead. However, I believe Zhao Manyan is more suitable for the wooden clapper. A vessel with a soul will choose its master. It didn't choose Mu Ningxue, who is stronger than you, "Nan Jue said.
Mofan nodded as if he understood something. When it came to Magic Tools and Magic Equipment, Mofan was at most a primary school student. He would not be able to understand anything more than that.
Speaking of which, he had tricked Zhao Manyan once, yet he had compensated him with a Companion Vessel. The man should be thanking him.
…
The group packed their luggage. The old monks were quite generous. They used their identities in Japan to buy a train ticket to Tokyo for them.
The train happened to be moving along the coastline. Mofan poked his head out of the window to enjoy the scenery of Xixiong City.
"By the way, if that's the cliff over there, isn't that the other side with the island that Miyata mentioned?" Jiang Yu suddenly recalled something and asked Mofan, who was sitting by the window.
The window was not big. Mofan was leaning out of the window, blocking the line of sight of the people sitting in the same row.
Mofan glanced at the area after hearing Jiang Yu's words. It was most likely connected to the continental shelf of the Pacific Ocean. Unfortunately, the mountain at Yanming Temple had a huge slope, blocking the line of sight from Xixiong City. They could only barely see it if they were on the cliff or riding the train.
There was a turn at the blind spot of the mountain. Mo Fan could only take a quick glance at it.
As a matter of fact, when they were in the illusion, Mofan and Ai Jiangtu had already looked in that direction from the cliff. There was no island on the other side.
The early morning sea fog had not completely dispersed, making the corner of the sea a little blurry.
The whistle of the train sounded, as if it was telling the people on the train that the train was making a turn.
"Huff huff huff ~"
The wind blew at Mofan's face. Mofan, who had poked his head out of the window, took a deep breath of the fresh air and casually glanced at the corner of the ocean!
Mofan's eyes widened with a single glance!
There really was an island floating on the surface of the ocean amid the morning mist!
Mofan thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. He quickly gathered his focus and looked into the distance. However, before he could take a closer look, the train had entered the mountain. His vision immediately turned dark as the train entered a tunnel …
The tunnel was long. When the light returned, Mofan no longer had the chance to see the corner of the ocean on the other side of the cliff.
"Am I seeing things?" Mofan returned to his seat with a blank face.
"What's wrong?" asked Jiang Yu.
"I think … I think I saw the island that Miyata mentioned doesn't exist," said Mofan in disbelief.
