Chapter 461: Mirage (2/2)

“Ancestor planet?” Lu Yun blurted out in shock. “Planet, not realm or world?”

“The ancestor planet is the ancestor planet. A brilliant, prosperous star. Sadly, the planet was destroyed when the human dao met its end,” lamented the human demon. “The planet may have been destroyed, but its heritage remains. Feng shui is part of that heritage, and the ancient tombs, this one included, are ruins of heritages left from the planet.”

Lu Yun nodded silently.

Hum.

The Yang Formation Orb in Lu Yun’s hand hummed as a giant mirror emerged, reflecting a hunched over figure: Ge Long. The Yin Formation Orb in his hand was glowing as well, resonating with the Yang Formation Orb.

Mirage.

A mirage was also a kind of feng shui layout. When certain conditions were met, it could project the scenery from one place to another.

Lu Yun had changed the environment in the ancient tomb with several formation-created layouts and met the conditions for a mirage to emerge. He’d then projected Ge Long’s image here through the connection between the two formation orbs.

There was a power that killed cultivators deep within the ancient tomb. He couldn’t reach the place, so he needed Ge Long to go in his stead and destroy the layout by giving instructions through the mirage.

“Do it!” Lu Yun ordered.

Snowflakes scattered from the sky to ensconce Lu Yun within as Mo Yi made her move. Something seemed to rush past the falling snow, causing a disturbance.

Swoosh!

Flame burst out of Lu Yun’s body and he reached out to grab where the falling snow was diverted from its path.

Thud!

He crushed the attacking divine obsession with a firm clench and burned it with hellfire. Lu Yun didn’t care at all how the divine obsession became sentient. According to the human demon, this was the resting place of the human emperor and had once been doused by his blood. Anything could happen here.

Relieved, Lu Yun turned to the mirage.

“What did you discover?” he asked, noting Ge Long’s dark look.

The old servant sported a perpetual leer on his face that never changed, even when facing the greatest of dangers, but now, his expression was so broodingly serious that it made him look like a different person.

“Something terrifying,” Ge Long said in a low voice. He fell silent after responding, since he’d reached the place where the tomb’s owner was buried.
