Chapter 326: Retrospective Mirror (1)
Clouds drifted across the sky, followed closely by stars, streaking from the horizon all the way to the southwest mountains. Ten thousand miles further southwest lay the border between the two Demonic Path states and the Tianyan and Hairuo states, a strange and dark chasm.
Luo Xuanyi stared upward at the black shadow in the sky, and felt that the death energy all over her body was gradually condensing, and the original ghost fire in her body was rising and extending. Although she had not practiced at all, her strength was increasing step by step.
Perhaps after connecting to the ghost world, the strange cultivators resonated with the ghost world and finally began to break free from the constraints of this world. However, Luo Xuanyi was being hunted by four people and could not concentrate on sensing the changes in herself.
Luo Xuanyi increased her evasion skills, intending to completely shake off the four men and find a quiet place to meditate. She looked up into the distance.
The edge of dark clouds looming in the distant southwest sky was one of the strange phenomena caused by the natural barrier. Filled with deathly aura and the eerie boundary between good and evil, the area around the natural barrier might be a good place.
He just glanced back and saw the giant golden mirror among the four people, and Luo Xuanyi frowned slightly.
The giant golden mirror shone with brilliant golden light, but its surface remained calm, its color faintly reflecting the drifting clouds in the sky. Gazing briefly at the mirror, one could have the illusion that the reflection of the outside world was merely a shallow layer of water, with something hidden beneath, stirring and stirring.
Luo Xuanyi's instinct told her that the giant mirror was dangerous and it would be best not to confront the four of them.
Having just finished refining the formation flags within the Wu Qing Hua Golden Body, Luo Xuanyi now held sixteen flags in her hands. Adding to this the multiple star positions she had gained from comprehending the two formations, and aside from eight flags reserved for the Inter-World Soul Falling Formation, Luo Xuanyi drew out another eight flags to prepare.
She picked out the star track that she had memorized in her mind, and a formation flag turned into smoke and rose up, replacing the stars, and the stars in the sky moved.
Li Chi, Lian Nian, Lian Zu and Lian Feng gritted their teeth and urged their flying clouds to catch up with Luo Xuanyi. The magnificent golden palaces on the mountains were left behind by the four of them.
It wasn't that the four of them were hiding, but rather that the Retracing Mirror in their hands couldn't unleash its full power. Furthermore, the Buddhist treasure was extremely energy-consuming, so to avoid wasting their attacks, it was best to close the distance to the enemy, within half a mile.
But just as they were about to chase Luo Xuanyi into the range of the Tracing Mirror, Luo Xuanyi's figure suddenly accelerated. Her trajectory was erratic and flickering, difficult to detect with the naked eye or even spiritual consciousness. The four of them, even with the Tracing Mirror, were unable to catch up and could only barely lag far behind.
Seeing that Luo Xuanyi was about to float out of the border of Ran Kingdom, and looking at the direction she was heading, if he did not stop her, he would let her escape safely from the hands of the Buddhist monks of the Great Freedom Hall and go deep into the area affected by the natural barrier.
By then, I'm afraid the Great Freedom Hall will lose all face among the three major sects!
Li Chi gritted his teeth and whispered, "We can't continue to waste time like this. That cunning cultivator has suddenly increased his speed. There must be something mysterious about it. If we continue to let him go, we will definitely fail."
The four of them were brothers from the same clan, so needless to say, they naturally understood Li Chi's intentions. Lian Zu, who was best at blocking, took a slight step outward, while Lian Nian stepped forward to block the middle.
The Tracing Mirror did not shake, but the three people's escape speed dropped significantly, and the distance between them and Luo Xuanyi suddenly widened.
The lotus feet standing on the clouds clasped their hands and said calmly: "Within three days."
As soon as he finished speaking, his monk's robes folded up, and a sutra fell into his palm. The sutra was made of plain brocade pages and gold foil ink. A withered lotus petal was tucked between the title pages, picked up by the lotus feet.
"All living things are free. Their lives can be cut off, and their deaths can be returned. All living things are free."
Lianzuo did not look at the scriptures but recited them silently in his heart. Suddenly, a stream of clear water swirled out from his fingertips, rolling up the dry lotus petals and making them drift down.
Luo Xuanyi in front suddenly felt a burst of water vapor coming from behind and passing through her body. Before she could check, she felt the clear stream soaking her body.
She lowered her head and saw a clear stream flowing out of nowhere in the sky where the clouds were passing by. The shadows of flowers under the stream gradually lifted up the dewdrops that grew out of the water, swaying gently in the wind and bringing with them the fragrance of lotus flowers.
The delicate fragrance woven densely into the flowing clouds, and Luo Xuanyi's figure suddenly paused. She immediately changed the Taixu Star Track to break free, but this pause had already allowed the lotus feet to step forward.
Lotus flowers continued to bloom and stretched to the horizon. One of them stopped in front of Luo Xuanyi, opened up, and revealed a calm face with lotus feet holding a scripture.
"All beings are free and at peace; the purest lotus gives birth; the purest lotus has a fragrant aroma; the lotus is the seat of the Buddha, and evil is its foundation."
The Taixu Star suddenly flashed, and Luo Xuanyi's ethereal form, a form of flowing clouds, revealed its true form of black mist and blue flames as she chanted. A giant lotus quietly rose from beneath the black mist, and myriad rays of Buddha light instantly exploded from the lotus's core, piercing Luo Xuanyi and pinning her within it!
Long black threads drifted from the cracks in the ghost world of the sky, entwining themselves around Taixu Star. The lotus beneath Luo Xuanyi suddenly ignited with blue flames, incinerating it completely. Her figure once again vanished into thin air, passing through the lotus feet.
"The great freedom of all life."
Lianzu sighed and muttered silently, then stepped barefoot into the stream. The long stream flowed back, and the lotus flower withered and turned into a lotus petal, and even fell back to Lianzu with Luo Xuanyi!
She reached out and pinched the lotus petals to put them back into the scripture, put the book away with her lotus feet, took a step back, and held up one side of the Suhuan Mirror.
Although Luo Xuanyi was not hurt within three minutes, the Tracing Mirror was already one step behind her!
In the pale, shimmering mirror, Luo Xuanyi's figure, shrouded in black mist and blue flames, was reflected. She felt a golden light surge behind her, and the air around her felt like ice. The four men didn't give her time to breathe.
"The Mirror River roars with waves, its reflections shattered by the water. When the Buddha walks on the river, his reflection can be seen."
Li Chi recited calmly, while Lian Nian, Lian Zu and Lian Feng transferred their spiritual power into the Retrospection Mirror.
"All living things are free. Draw the river as a mirror and reflect your image."
Luo Xuanyi suddenly pulled out the flag and turned around to wave it. The exploding death energy directly broke the flesh and blood of the four people, and blood flew out like a waterfall. However, the bone flagpole did not hit the Tracing Mirror directly, but was blocked by someone waving the flag.
The flag extended from the mirror, and the flag surface looked like a pile of flesh and blood, with pus flowing down and hanging like tassels; the flagpole was made of clean white bones, exuding a strange sense of holiness.
The hand holding the flagpole was pale and bloodless. She was dressed in a black robe, and under her messy black hair, a pair of crescent eyes were shrouded in shadows.
That was Luo Xuanyi. She gazed at the world beyond the mirror, a hint of doubt forming in her mind.
“…”
She said something in the mirror, then made up her mind and stepped towards the mirror.
The Suhuan Mirror was like a sudden ripple on the water, and among the ripples, "Luo Xuanyi" passed through freely, stepping on the clouds.
This time, when she spoke again, Luo Xuanyi could hear the voice. It was a very familiar voice of her own, and it said coldly, "Who are you?"
Luo Xuanyi saw "Luo Xuanyi" forming a formation with his hands, and the prototype of the Soul-Falling Formation in the Interworld had appeared.
The person in front of him was like a replica of his true self, with a strong aura of death surging from his entire body.
Both of them were shocked and confused, staring at each other, and for a moment they did not make any rash moves.
Li Chi and his four companions retreated half a mile away with the Tracing Mirror on their bodies, looking at the two people indifferently. The Tracing Mirror on their bodies was surrounded by spiritual light, and faintly floated to "Luo Xuanyi".
"Um."
"Luo Xuanyi" looked at Luo Xuanyi, and suddenly attacked with a flag!
