Chapter 392 - Shards of Memories (2/2)
“Shen Ying.” Lonemoon nudged the person beside him. “Do you feel like anything’s amiss?” For some reason, Lonemoon felt weird.
“Oh, I think this place is….” She stopped mid-sentence. There was a strange expression in her eyes. A moment later, he tilted her head and said, “I don’t know.”
“…” What the hell was “is I don’t know” supposed to mean? You freaking know!
“Father Niu, I believe you!” She judged him.
“Get lost!” Lonemoon glared at her. After thinking for a second, he pulled up a screen. He recalled the few-hundred-page-thick instruction manual, then began to slowly operate the screen.
A few minutes later, rows of data appeared on the screen. He retrieved his notebook and compared the numbers to the ones already in his notebook before. Suddenly, his expression darkened and he frowned.
“Why is this place’s data in a mess?”
“What’s the matter?” Yi Qing asked.
“This place is different from everywhere else. Its data seems… flipped around!” That was if he had not noted down the wrong numbers earlier.
Yi Qing stared blankly at him, as if not understanding what Lonemoon meant by “flipped around”. He closed his eyes and released his divine perception to sense the auras around. A few seconds later, he widened his eyes in shock. “There are all kinds of auras mixed around here, including spirit Qi!” By right, spirit Qi could not be mixed with other Qis like Yin Qi and ghost Qi. In a place with such rich Yin Qi, one would expect there to be no spirit Qi present at all. Yet, there was also immortal Qi mixed in the air around here!
“Exalted Masters, what are you talking about?” Yun Heng stepped forward and asked, looking positively confused.The entire way here, he had been unlucky, Now as he took that step forward, he tripped and fell.
He was just about to land face first into the ground. Shen Ying had been far away. Suddenly, she appeared by his side and reached out to keep him steady.
“Lightbulb, stop touching things.” They’ll break.
“Huh?” Before Yun Heng could react, they heard several cracks underneath his feet, as if something has just broken.
There was a white beam of light which lit up beside him where he would have fallen. It broke through the darkness and caused the surroundings to become brighter and brighter. The light embraced all four of them.
Shen Ying sighed softly. Aiya…
The gray fog cleared up into light. Faintly, they saw a figure that resembled a blessed and holy ground.
“An Illusory realm!” Lonemoon immediately recognized that sorcery. He conjured a seal to try to get rid of the illusion.
“Wait!” Yi Qing called out. He looked around and said, “There are no killing machines in this illusion. It doesn’t look like it’s trying to trap us. Instead…” It looked like it was trying to tell them something.
Lonemoon relaxed his hand and pondered for a moment. Activating several bursts of his own spirit Qi, he walked around the group, gesturing for each of them to reach out and hold on to the spirit Qi. He did not want anyone to get lost – especially not that directionless dimwit. He made two more rounds, just for safety.
A few seconds later, the bright light began to clear up. The few of them paused to take a look at the surroundings. Everything was much clearer now. But before they could see what was in front of them, their eyes narrowed all at once.
Holy shit!
(⊙ o ⊙)
This was a place with extremely rich spirit Qi. There were spirit herbs and spirit plants everywhere. There were even spirit peaks floating in mid-air. However, in the middle of the entire scene, there was one huge black hole. It looked like someone had torn a hole in the sky. Everything around them began to turn in circles around the hole, finally being sucked into it.
Lonemoon and Yi Qing’s hearts sank. At the same time, they called out.
“A crack in the plane!”
“It’s also a typhoon,” Shen Ying added lazily.
“…”
