Ripples fluctuated on the ancient bronze mirror, and the deep and mysterious dark colors faded away like the tide. The blurry picture began to appear indistinctly.
Mu Chen and Nine Nether gazed at it intently.
In the huge bronze mirror, it seemed that there were endless continents. The mountains spread out seemingly without end. The overlooking point of view seemed to be from a high altitude, as if the sight were still rising…
Mu Chen stared blankly at the strange continents. He had no idea what godforsaken places they were.
Nine Nether, however, stared seriously at the outline of the mountains and terrain. Her eyebrows knitted together as though she were pondering something.
The pictures continued to emerge and finally seemed to transform into a continental map. The continent had an indescribable, overwhelming vastness.
Mu Chen stared at the strange terrain map and could only laugh bitterly. The world was too vast, and there were countless continents. Thus, it was not easy to tell where it was by a mere terrain map.
Furthermore, the Mirror of Judgment did not reveal to them the exact location of the Immortal Catalog. Were they going to search fruitlessly like headless flies on such a vast continent?
The odds of finding it were impossibly low.
Just as Mu Chen could not help but to force a smile, light faintly converged onto the Mirror of Judgment once again. It became an ancient palace above which the sun and the moon were suspended, and the light shone as if it had shrouded that vast continent.
Nine Nether looked at the ancient palace with the sun and moon hovering above it. Her body shook with surprise as astonishment surged in her eyes.
The picture did not last long and slowly dissipated. The surface of the Mirror of Judgment became dark again, and the light enveloping the Immortal Page also dissipated.
Mu Chen stretched out his palm as the Immortal Page landed on it and was swiftly absorbed into his body.
“We don’t have any leads at all.” Mu Chen sighed softly. He had no clue about the strange continent or the ancient palace.
“Not necessarily.” Nine Nether, who had been staring at the Mirror of Judgment, smiled suddenly.
Upon hearing this statement, Mu Chen was stunned. Surprise surged in his heart when he understood the meaning of Nine Nether’s words. Had she discovered something?
“If I’m not wrong, the continent that appeared within the Mirror of Judgment should be the Tianluo Continent, one of the ten supercontinents in the Great Thousand World.”
“One of the ten supercontinents in the Great Thousand World… the Tianluo Continent?” Mu Chen muttered to himself.
“In the Great Thousand World, the most renowned would be that of the ten supercontinents, which are considered the core regions in the entire Great Thousand World. These regions are incomparably prosperous with countless powerful people, as many as the stars in the sky.
“I’m afraid that when compared with Tianluo Continent, your Northern Heavens Continent where your Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy is located cannot even match up to a firefly. In the Tianluo Continent, any top powers are no weaker than the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Chen clicked his tongue in shock. Even though he had known that the Northern Heavens Continent was nothing in this Great Thousand World, he did not expect it to this degree. After all, no matter what, the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy could be regarded as the ruler of the entire Northern Heavens Continent, but in comparison to those supercontinents, it was merely insignificant.
“You seem to be especially familiar with Tianluo Continent?” Mu Chen started at Nine Nether in surprise.
“Do you know where I came from before I failed to pass the tribulation?” Nine Nether smiled.
Shock and disbelief was written on Mu Chen’s face as he replied, “It’s this Tianluo Continent?”
“Bingo.” Nine Nether nodded seriously.
“The Nine Netherbird Clan was also in the Tianluo Continent?” Mu Chen asked in astonishment.
“The Nine Netherbird Clan is not in the Tianluo Continent. I just went to the place when I first began my cultivation. Besides, I have my own territory there.” Nine Nether smirked with self-satisfaction.
“You even established an influence and have your own forces?” Mu Chen was really astounded at this point.
“I didn’t set up forces, but I was invited by an elder to join one of the top forces. After all, life would be very difficult if one had no background when journeying in the vast world, especially in the Tianluo Continent where there were many hidden top powers.”
“Oh? There was actually a top force that you deigned to join?” Mu Chen smiled.
“At that time, I had not been successful in evolution, and I didn’t even have the power of the Sovereign. The strength I had was simply insignificant in the Tianluo Continent. The top force I was in was called the Daluo Territory, but you should not underestimate it. It was one of the top forces in the Tianluo Continent, and I’m afraid that its overall strength would only be stronger than that of the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. Moreover, I am also ranked as a senior leader in the Daluo Territory.” Nine Nether smiled gleefully.
“You didn’t even have the ability of a Sovereign-level then, and you could become a senior leader?” Mu Chen asked doubtfully.
“Heheh. Well, I do have strong support to back me up.” Nine Nether’s smirk grew increasingly proud.
