Thunder roared, lightning flashed, and sword beams covered the sky.
Finally, Ye Lanxuan swung out his last sword strike, and all the lightning pillars were shattered by his sword, but he still stood in the same place and was unable to get any closer.
Ye Lanxuan frowned and put away the Thousand Breaking Sword. Obviously, even with his strength and the power of the Thousand Breaking Sword, he could not break the defense of this ancient mirror.
"How could this happen? Didn't Han Yan say that the ancestors of the Han and Tang families had been here? How did they leave alive?" Jiang Yuzhe widened his eyes and said with a puzzled look.
"If I'm not mistaken, they didn't trigger the seal of the ancient mirror at that time. It might be because of their limited strength and they didn't dare to be greedy. Just now, Zhao Lingxian and others tried to make a contract with the ancient mirror, so they naturally had to open the seal first, which triggered the defensive barrier." Mu Hanyan said.
She had thought about this question before and found the answer easily.
"Then what should we do?" Jiang Yuzhe asked at a loss.
Like Jiang Yuzhe, Hua Yue, Zirong and others were also at a loss. Originally, they had thought about attacking from different directions at the same time, but Ye Lanxuan had already tried this method. His speed was definitely not inferior to that of several people attacking at the same time, but in the end he still returned empty-handed. Of course, they didn't need to try again.
"I think Master Qu should have a solution." Mu Hanyan asked Qu Shanling.
Hua Yue and the others also turned their eyes to Qu Shanling. Qu Shanling had brought them too many shocks along the way. No one had expected that this old charlatan who they thought was just a swindler could actually have such profound and mysterious skills.
They had a feeling that just as their following Mu Hanyan was no coincidence, Qu Shanling's encounter with Mu Hanyan and his stay with her were predestined. Oh, no, not predestined, but someone had already arranged it. And that someone was his master, Lu Guankong.
Whether it was the Divine Attraction Technique he had used before, or the Heavenly Seal Divine Power and Divine Prohibition Technique that followed, it seemed as if they were specially prepared for Mu Hanyan.
All the previous problems were easily solved with the hand gestures taught by Lu Guankong. This time, he should also have a solution.
"I remember when my master taught me the art of Heavenly Seal Divine Power and Divine Prohibition, he also said something to me, but I'm not sure if it has anything to do with this ancient mirror." Qu Shanling felt a little embarrassed by their gazes and said slowly.
"What? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Ye Yanran complained.
"Master said that the treasures of heaven and earth are only available to those with destiny. The more advanced the artifact, the more spiritual it is. If you don't have that destiny, don't be greedy. If you insist on using force, you may be struck by thunder. Even if you are strong enough to withstand the power of the thunder, the artifact will explode and be destroyed.
And if fate allows, even if the might of thunder destroys heaven and earth, it won't hurt you in the slightest, so you can take it safely." Qu Shanling said.
"What does this mean?" Jiang Yuzhe asked, seemingly understanding what he heard.
"What it means is that if you don't have that fate, even if you don't get killed by the lightning pillar, if you get the ancient mirror, it will explode and destroy itself.
If fate allows, then even if the lightning pillar strikes you, it won't kill you. You can just reach out and take it." Zirong explained.
"Then how do we know if we are destined to be together or not?" Jiang Yuzhe continued to ask questions.
"It's very simple. Just try it and you'll know. If you're killed by the lightning column, it means you're not destined to be together. If you're not killed, it means you're destined to be together." Zirong said.
"Uh..." Jiang Yuzhe's throat rolled over, and the corner of his mouth twitched. Forget this idea.
At this moment, everyone understood why Qu Shanling didn't say it earlier. This was clearly a gamble with his life.
"Actually, I don't know whether what Master said was related to this ancient mirror. Maybe he just said it casually." Qu Shanling added.
Although he said so, judging from the current situation, he should be talking about this ancient mirror, and the destined person he mentioned should be Mu Hanyan.
But it is what should be done. It is still a guess after all. The power of thunder and lightning is getting stronger and stronger. Even Ye Lanxuan has a hard time dealing with it. Who dares to let Mu Hanyan take the risk?
"Why don't we just forget about it? It's just a broken mirror. It may not be of any use to us. Whoever is willing to gamble his life on it can do so." Ye Yanran said.
"Yanran is right. Although the defensive barrier of this ancient mirror is powerful, it doesn't look anything special. Let's not think about it." Xia Youchen also echoed.
Hua Yue and the others didn't say anything, but their silence actually showed their intentions. They didn't want Mu Hanyan to take risks.
"I think I'd better give it a try." Mu Hanyan said.
Unlike Hua Yue and the others, she knew the origin of this ancient mirror. A treasure that could be worn on the chest of that mysterious and powerful woman was no ordinary artifact. How could she give it up so easily?
What's more, judging from all the previous signs, the destined person that Lu Guankong was referring to should be herself. If she still doesn't dare to give it a try, even she will look down on herself.
What! Hua Yue and the others were all shocked, looking at Mu Hanyan worriedly, wanting to speak up to persuade her.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. As long as I can forcibly increase my strength to the level of Sword Saint, I should be able to protect myself. Besides, with Yanran here, it won't be a big deal even if I get injured." Mu Hanyan saw their concern and continued to explain.
"And me, how could I just watch Hanyan risk her life?" Ye Lanxuan also spoke. He had no doubts about Mu Hanyan's decision and supported it to the best of his ability.
Hua Yue and the others finally felt relieved. With Ye Lanxuan's protection and his strength raised to the level of Sword Saint, even if the lightning pillar was a bit more powerful, it would hardly harm Mu Hanyan's life. At most, she would suffer a minor injury. And with Ye Yanran around, a minor injury wouldn't matter at all. She even didn't need to worry about pills.
Hua Yue and the others held their breath and concentrated, performing hand gestures at the same time. They had always cooperated well with each other, and now they concentrated their minds to the extreme, fearing that any mistake would endanger Mu Hanyan's life.
Ye Yanran also began to chant softly, gathering the land of heaven and earth full of vitality outside her body. If Mu Hanyan had any accident, she could rescue her as quickly as possible.
Mu Hanyan also performed a hand seal, and her strength increased rapidly. She was at the middle stage of the Great Sword Master... the late stage... the peak... the Sword Saint! Soon, her strength was raised to the realm of the Sword Saint.
Taking firm steps, Mu Hanyan walked towards the ancient mirror step by step.
