1151 Nine Illusory Quicksand! (1/2)
Noticing that everyone sat down, she subconsciously followed suit, but her eyes were hollow… as if there was no life in them anymore…
Gu Han took in a deep breath, colorful light circulated around his body, his Xuan Qi changed in colors from black, then red, green… after changing numerous times, he spat out a dark, black blood clot.
Then, his festered flesh and charred skin begin to slowly fall off from his body. After the scabs fell off, a new layer of white flesh was revealed.
Had it been any ordinary person, with such a severe injury, he would have probably died numerous times over. But Gu Han managed to completely recover in such a short period of time. At least, on the surface.
His injuries were no longer an issue, but his appearance…
Gu Han had coordinated with Jun Mo Xie to force Zhan Lun Hui into the volcano earlier. He used all his cultivation on the pushing force, lowering his defenses to the lowest. All his clothes were burnt away. Even his hair and brows were damaged. It wasn't an issue when he was in a completely sorry state earlier, completely pitch-black from head to toe. But right now, his body had recovered, his new milky, tender flesh looks pretty good, but he was completely exposed… making it a little…
Young Master Jun sniggered internally. When he first met this old man, he had an air of carefreeness and gracefulness, the endless splendor of an otherworldly expert. Right now, he was so sorry-looking. But Jun Mo Xie's first thought was to retrieve a robe and hand it over!
Gu Han took it subconsciously, but realization struck him and he couldn't help but turn bright red, putting those robes on in a fluster. His injuries have recovered, but his appearance was extremely unbecoming. He wasn't that different from how Zhan Lun Hui looked earlier. Although there was an urgent matter they had to see to, and a man of character did not bother about trifles, but there were women present here…
It was not like the rest from Heaven Saint Palace did not think of this, but they weren't like Young Master Jun who carried a world everywhere he went to produce clothing anytime. If they wished to offer clothes, they'd have to give the ones on their bodies, which was already torn and tattered…
”Zhan Family! The culprit that had caused this disaster is Zhan Kuang!” Gu Han scoffed and said through gritted teeth. ”Zhan Family is the ancestor of the Zhan Family of the Misty Illusory Manor. And at the same time, one of the eight disciples of the first Manor Lord of the Misty Illusory Manor, Miao Qing Cheng. The only one that remains!”
Jun Mo Xie nodded his head. ”En. What is the cause?”
Gu Han scoffed as his face contorted. ”Everything started from greed. For ten thousand years, since the Misty Illusory Manor was established, it had an inseparable relationship with the three Holy Lands! When Ancestor First Young Master sealed the Pillar of Heavens Mountains that separated the continent into two, for the sake of ensuring the seal lasts for eternity, he set up a 'Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation' in the ancestral shrine of the three Holy Lands, using it to absorb the Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi and transforming it into the Nine Illusory Quicksand. Then the Nine Illusory Quicksand ensured the continuity of the Formation, constantly producing the energy needed to keep the seal on the Pillar of Heavens Mountains and thus ensuring that the strange races will never step foot in the Xuan Xuan Continent easily for the rest of their lives!”
”The Nine Illusory Quicksand… Nirvana Formation!” Jun Mo Xie mumbled. ”So that's the reason.”
”And the reason why the Misty Illusory Manor can be formed is because of the Nine Illusory Divine Pearl that the Nine Nether First Young Master left behind. That is also a complex Heaven and Earth Formation that is able to move Heaven and Earth, Sun and Moon into a small space! Which led to the formation of the Misty Illusory Manor! But if the Misty Illusory Manor wishes to continue existing, every thousand years they will have to enter the formation to top up a certain amount of Nine Illusory Quicksand. The moment this is broken, it means that the entire realm of Misty Illusory Manor will crumble.”
Gu Han let out a deep sigh. ”And the disaster today had started from this matter.”
Jun Mo Xie came to a complete realization.
”If the formation in Misty Illusory Manor is not provided with the Nine Illusory Quicksand, the Rainbow Holy Tree, which is the source of life in Misty Illusory Manor, will wither and die in the shortest time. If the Rainbow Holy Tree dies, the entire Misty Illusory Manor, along with all the lives in it, will all turn into dust!”
”Back then, the Nine Nether First Young Master had his qualms that the three Holy Lands would intentionally wipe out the Misty Illusory Manor. Although the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation, being the seal of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, is set in the boundaries of the Holy Land, this formation needs to be maintained and operated, and it can only be done by someone from the Misty Illusory Manor.”
He raised his head to look at Jun Mo Xie, knowing that he was confused. ”The Nine Nether First Young Master had once imparted a set of Xuan skills, but later, it was improvised and ultimately imparted to the four great disciples. But the effects of their Xuan skills were all different. Of which, Senior Miao Qing Cheng's line of descendants received the skills that can truly drive the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation. And only those with cultivation of a Saint Venerable and above can do it.”
