Chapter 315: The Celestial Mistfield Banners (1/2)

The monster ancestor’s tomb contained part of the ancestor’s soul, and as it happened, the little fox was missing part of her soul. That explained why she was so cowardly, despite being a golden immortal. She was as timid as a mouse, jumping with fright from the slightest scare.

“If the tomb is indeed on this island, then it’s definitely in Myriad Returns City.”

The city at the center of the monster spirits’ sacred land was where the monster ancestor had once resided, but now… it’d crashed into the inner sea, its whereabouts unknown.

The small fox wanted to burst into tears.

“There was no tomb on the floating peak.” Lu Yun declared with perfect timing and great certainty. “I’d already scoured Myriad Returns City and the rest of the floating peak, and saw no tomb.”

He’d expressly used his luopan when visiting the floating peak, but didn’t find the existence of an ancient tomb.

“Strange, the floating island’s gone now.”

Levitating Island was now a barren ruin and the inner sea had recovered its serenity, but the floating peak was nowhere to be seen. The small fox’s Myriad Returns Formation was on the isle, so Lu Yun had originally planned to take it with him and store it in hell. If Feinie could study the formation and understand its inner workings, it would perhaps help her achieve a breakthrough.

But the peak had disappeared, as if it’d never fallen into the inner sea to begin with. Even the two zombies had vanished.

They were born of the corpse coffins and had once been members of the Exalted Divine Tribe. Incomparably powerful when alive, they’d touched the limits of the dao immortal realm. Though hit by the crystal mountain, their bodies hadn’t been destroyed. The impact had merely sent their giant selves to the bottom of the sea. Yet somehow, they were now impossible to find.

Even if they were dead, there should’ve been bodies left behind, but all of the zombies seemed to have vanished from the inner sea.

“The inner sea is connected to the skydragon tomb in the North Sea,” Diexi interjected. “I first met Xiaoxiao inside the skydragon tomb, but we somehow made our way to Levitating Island at some point in time.”

Lu Yun looked at Su Xiaoxiao. He’d obtained her memories in life, but not those she’d acquired after death. However, his new envoy looked confused as well.

“I don’t know what’s going on either…. That tomb is indeed connected to the skydragon tomb, but I haven’t the faintest idea how I got there, or how I came back.”

Lu Yun sighed softly. “Looks like there’s truly something afoot with this Levitating Island. The emergence of the skydragon tomb must also be related to this place.”

He brought out the luopan, employing the Dragonsearch Invocation and the cosmic feng shui method to survey the land. A sense of normalcy had returned to the island, but each and every layout related to the tomb had disappeared into thin air.

The formerly thriving Levitating Island, once a harbor of easy wealth for the entire North Sea, was now nothing more than a barren, ring-shaped island that held no value whatsoever.

……

“Levitating Island, Levitating Island is ruined!” A desolate scream reverberated in the sky. “The island is a key North Sea location, a symbol of our glory. How have things dissolved to this?!”

Gripped by the throes of insanity, Beigong Chonglou looked at the island in sheer disbelief. “Who are you people? How dare you destroy our island?!”

Lu Yun’s group was the first party he laid eyes on. Staring widely with fury, he arrived in front of them and loudly interrogated them.

Even after the floating peak’s destruction, the North Sea court’s foundations wouldn’t have been shaken as long as Levitating Island itself still stood. However, the island was now nothing but worthless rubble.
