Chapter 31: Inner Scene Divination!

While Xu Si and others were discussing Luo Fu’s past with Zhang Chulan.

On the arena.

Without warning, a disciple of the Shu Zi Sect suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood, staggered, then blood gushed from all seven orifices—he looked as if he would die at any moment, and collapsed straight down.

This terrified the members of Qiuzhen Society and the Tang Sect.

“Itachi… Itachi…” the Tang Sect disciple stared in horror at Luo Fu and said: “Master Luo Fu, what did Itachi do?”

Luo Fu himself was still dazed—he had done nothing at all, merely waiting for his opponent to strike.

Who could have expected that before the battle even began, the opponent had already lost one of their sorcerers?

A flash of insight struck his mind: if he wasn’t mistaken, the reason the Shu Zi Sect disciple had vomited blood, then bled from all seven orifices, was that he had just entered the Inner Scene and attempted to divine about himself.

But was Luo Fu so easy to divine?

Before entering the shared space, a sorcerer divining Luo Fu would have paid only a minor price.

Now, it was different—Luo Fu’s destiny and karmic threads reached across two worlds simultaneously.

To divine Luo Fu meant bearing not only the karmic and destiny pressure from his own world, but also the cost of divining two worlds.

Not even a lowly Shu Zi Sect disciple could survive this. Even Wang Ye of the Feng Hou Qi Men or Zhu Ge Qing of the Wu Hou School, if they entered the Inner Scene to divine about themselves, would be lucky to escape with their lives.

As expected, before the crowd’s eyes, a Daoist from Longhu Mountain rushed onto the arena the instant the Shu Zi Sect disciple bled from all seven orifices.

But after examining the disciple, the Longhu Mountain Daoist shook his head gravely: “His soul has scattered!”

This result instantly sparked a wave of uproar.

Although sorcerers entering the Inner Scene to divine indeed bear heavy karmic burdens and pressure—even risking backlash—it was rare in the history of the Supernatural World to die outright without a word.

In such a case—suddenly dying without warning—it was almost unheard of.

Ordinary supernaturals were shocked that the Shu Zi Sect disciple had died so absurdly; but sorcerers like Zhu Ge Qing and Wang Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, due to various reasons, though they had entertained thoughts of divining Luo Fu, they had never entered the Inner Scene to directly ask about him.

Otherwise, this Shu Zi Sect disciple’s fate might have been theirs.

Don’t think that learning Wu Hou Qi Men or Feng Hou Qi Men would make their outcome any better. Quite the opposite.

Precisely because they mastered powerful Qi Men techniques, their outcome would be worse.

In sorcerer divination, the more profound and mysterious the Qi Men technique, the clearer the vision—and the greater the karmic burden.

At best, Wu Hou Qi Men and Feng Hou Qi Men have special evasion effects that can somewhat weaken direct backlash.

But this kind of existence—capable of instantly killing a sorcerer with backlash—made even Zhu Ge Qing and Wang Ye tread with extreme caution.

“Thank heavens! Thank heavens!!” Zhu Ge Qing, still shaken, said sternly to his younger brother Zhu Ge Bai: “Bai, remember—never enter the Inner Scene to ask any question about Zhang Luo Fu.”

“I… I remember!!”

Though Zhu Ge Bai was timid, he was not foolish on matters of life and death. The sight of a sorcerer dying instantly before his eyes had terrified the fearful Zhu Ge Bai.

It made him instinctively dread any divination concerning Luo Fu.

In the stands.

After a brief shock, the audience erupted in chaos.

“How is this possible? His soul scattered? That means complete soul annihilation!”

“Dead… dead? Hey!! Is the Luotian Da Jiao supposed to be lethal?!”

“Too terrifying. If we face Zhang Luo Fu, will we die too?”

Such a drastic incident forced even the Old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhi to descend personally.

After all, the preliminary round had just begun, and already a sorcerer had sacrificed his life to announce the danger of the Luotian Da Jiao.

The timid supernaturals might now refuse to enter the arena.

As the Old Heavenly Master, Zhang Zhi had no choice but to intervene personally.

In one leap, he arrived before the soul-scattered sorcerer, examined his body, and frowned deeply.

His findings matched those of the Longhu Mountain judge exactly.

Soul scattered.

Though this Shu Zi Sect sorcerer still had faint breath, even if his life were saved, he would become a permanent vegetable.

Zhang Zhi cast a meaningful glance at Luo Fu and said: “This was an accident. I will personally contact the head of the Shu Zi Sect.”

After a brief pause, Zhang Zhi announced loudly: “I warn all sorcerers—Luo Fu’s condition is extraordinary. Do not rashly divine him!!”

“Master!” the Longhu Mountain Daoist judge, suppressing his trembling, said: “What do we do now?”

After a moment’s thought, Zhang Zhi said directly: “Continue the match! Have someone remove this Shu Zi Sect disciple.”

A life vanished before everyone’s eyes, right at the start of the Luotian Da Jiao.

It sent a profound shock through the new generation of supernaturals.

“This kid has secrets!!” In the stands, Wang Ai narrowed his eyes and leaned close to Lu Ci: “Perhaps the true Qi Ti Yuan Liu really resides in this boy.”

Lu Ci remained expressionless, still watching the arena: “This boy is a newly awakened innate supernatural. Less than three months since awakening.”

“But before this, everyone thought Zhang Chulan was an ordinary person—he concealed himself for over a decade! Today’s youth can’t be underestimated—their scheming runs deeper than ever!” Wang Ai sneered, then shifted tone: “The San Yi Sect is already gone. It should vanish. Lu Jin already holds the Tongtian Lu. Now he’s taken this disciple with Qi Ti Yuan Liu—his Lu family now possesses two of the Eight Marvelous Techniques!”

A flicker of killing intent flashed in Lu Ci’s eyes: “We still don’t know who truly holds Qi Ti Yuan Liu. Don’t forget—this boy is now Tian Jinzhong’s disciple. First confirm Zhang Chulan doesn’t have Qi Ti Yuan Liu!”

Wang Ai smiled faintly and nodded slightly.
