Chapter 796: First Meeting with Yagokoro Eirin

As Lingyun's voice fell, a cold snort came from the Void. The Void rippled, and an arrow suddenly appeared, shooting toward Lingyun. The seemingly ordinary arrow was imbued with terrifying power.

Watching the arrow imbued with terrifying power, a trace of helplessness appeared on Lingyun's face. Ripples of space surged before him; after the arrow dove into the ripples, it actually emerged from them again, rushing back in the direction it had come from. Another invisible ripple of space quietly stirred in the Void, and the arrow sank into the spatial ripple, leaving not a trace behind.

Watching the arrow disappear, Lingyun raised an eyebrow: "To be able to control such powerful spatial power, this person's strength truly exceeds my imagination. Even compared to Na Yuejiang, she is still a distance away!"

"Your Excellency must be protecting that Moon Princess from the shadows, right? Rest assured, I have no malice toward that Moon Princess; rather, I am quite interested in Your Excellency. I wonder if Your Excellency could reveal yourself so we may meet." Lingyun said indifferently.

The person in the shadows fell into silence, seemingly contemplating something, and only after a long while did she speak: "I am forced by certain reasons to be unable to appear before others. If I were to appear, it would bring much trouble to the Princess."

"Oh? It's actually a female voice?" Lingyun could not help but raise an eyebrow.

Just at this moment, a spatial vortex suddenly appeared before Lingyun, as if inviting him to enter.

Lingyun narrowed his eyes. He could not currently determine if the other party was friend or foe, or if such an invitation carried malice. However, Lingyun himself was fearless; if the other party truly wanted to trap him in this space, that would be wishful thinking—his own attainments in space were no less profound.

Lingyun rose leisurely and stepped into the spatial vortex. The moment he stepped into the spatial vortex, Lingyun arrived in another world.

"A world created by one's own power, truly a great master!" Lingyun exclaimed in his heart.

Just at this moment, a sensation of being locked onto arose spontaneously. Lingyun looked forward and saw a young woman standing not far ahead. This woman wore a nurse's cap, her silver hair tied into a ponytail, and her clothing was half purple and half red. Embroidered on her clothes were constellation patterns: the Lyra constellation on her hat, the Cassiopeia constellation on her upper right, the Big Dipper on her upper left, the Sagittarius constellation on her lower right, and the Andromeda constellation on her lower left. Around the hem of her skirt were patterns of the Eight Trigrams array.

This woman held a longbow in her hand, with large pink ribbons tied to both ends of the bow. Right now, this bow was being drawn to a full moon by its owner, with the arrow aimed at Lingyun, who had stepped into this world.

"A bow tied with ribbons, are you Yagokoro Eirin?" Lingyun's gaze swept over the woman, and he raised an eyebrow. "Then this place must be the Pot World!"

The Moon Princess Kaguya and the Brain of the Moon Yagokoro Eirin—with these two key figures together, the information about this world was very clear. Lingyun now understood a bit; he had not expected that the world he had come to this time was the legendary Gensokyo. Although Gensokyo had not yet been established, most of its important figures should already be appearing in this world. He could go and see them later to see what state those people were in now, for instance, the Sage of Youkai who was not yet the Idler of Youkai.

Yagokoro Eirin looked at the man who had stepped into her Pot World and could not help but frown. Daring to step into her Pot World under these circumstances, this young man must have his own reliance.

Looking at the arrow pointed at him, Lingyun smiled faintly, and six Light Swords quietly emerged beside him. The moment the Light Swords appeared, Yagokoro Eirin felt an extremely terrifying aura; this aura was not inferior to her own, and even showed signs of faintly surpassing her.

The two's auras collided continuously within the Pot World. Amidst the clash of auras, Yagokoro Eirin deeply felt the other party's strength. One must know that this place was the Pot World, her home turf, but even on her home turf, the other party's momentum was not only not suppressed, but even faintly had a feeling of suppressing her, which was enough to make her feel horrified.

Most importantly, she could feel that the other party was not only able to contend with her in aura, but was even competing with her for control of the Pot World. To be able to compete for control of this world within a world created by her, this person's spatial attainments were likely not inferior to her own and had reached the pinnacle.

Looking at the youth before her, Yagokoro Eirin could not help but frown. When had such a terrifying powerhouse appeared on this filthy ground, and she had been completely unaware? It seemed that Yuedu still had many shortcomings in its monitoring of the ground; she should go and improve it after returning.

However, the tips of these six Light Swords were pointed at the ground; the other party was expressing goodwill and did not want to fight her. But these six Light Swords were also indicating that if she wanted to fight, the sword in his hand would show no mercy.

Looking at Lingyun before her, Yagokoro Eirin let out a soft breath. After all, she had come to the ground secretly to protect Kaguya; if she made an enemy of such a powerhouse, it would inevitably be a huge obstacle to her future plans. And the other party's meaning was also very clear: whether to fight or make peace depended on her.

The fully drawn bowstring slowly retracted, and Yagokoro Eirin made her choice. The moment she released the bowstring, Yagokoro Eirin felt an inexplicable sense of relief. Her intuition faintly told her that fighting this youth was an extremely rude thing to do, so subconsciously, she did not want to be enemies with this youth.

As the intention to fight dissipated, Yagokoro Eirin felt a bit more interest in the youth before her. When she first saw the powerful strength this youth displayed, she had almost thought this youth was a god. But the final result of her observation told her that this youth was not a god, but a human!

"To rival gods with a human body? Truly an interesting youth! Since that is the case, it is not impossible to talk. After all, I can only stay in the shadows, and some things are inconvenient." Yagokoro Eirin thought to herself.

"I think we can have a good talk..." Yagokoro Eirin put away the longbow in her hand and said to Lingyun.

Seeing Yagokoro Eirin put away her weapon, the Light Swords beside Lingyun also dissipated accordingly. The moment the Light Swords dissipated, Yagokoro Eirin discovered that the aura on the youth before her had dropped to the level of an ordinary person. This discovery also made Yagokoro Eirin's heart tighten; clearly, this youth's control over his own aura had also reached the pinnacle.

"Just as well, I also have some things I would like to discuss with the legendary Brain of the Moon." Lingyun said indifferently.
