Chapter 640: Why is my profession panel in an anime style? Chapter 306
Before Zhao Yan could finish his sentence, a pale blue phantom shaped like a blood drop suddenly appeared in his palm.
Seeing this, Zhao Yan’s face showed no surprise: “As expected...”
As an old friend of that Eternal Myriad Dharma Immortal, he and his senior sister had naturally entered this Silk Road before.
Just like now, the [Technique Soul] that manifested within them back then was also this blood-drop shape.
Zhao Yan even remembered that his virtuous younger brother’s mood had turned very poor after the two of them entered the Silk Road, and even now, he didn’t know the reason why.
‘It couldn’t be because he failed to learn [Heaven-Returning Blood Body], could it?’
Just as he couldn’t help but mutter this in his heart, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
[The Silk Road can monitor whether entrants will have a causal connection with Myriad Karma True Blood within a hundred years. I suppose he discovered back then that Shangguan Xiao would turn into a Dharma Corpse.]
“...”
Hearing this, Zhao Yan fell into silence.
So that was it? So his virtuous younger brother knew back then that his senior sister would turn into a Dharma Corpse after her death?
It was no wonder that even though he had relocated the entire Wangchuan Academy to a remote area like Sanchuan Town, the other party had still come knocking.
Thinking of this, the former supreme of Wangchuan Academy scratched his cheek with a hint of helplessness.
He had said back then that his senior sister had merely “eaten” some Southern Dynasty garrison troops who had killed civilians to claim merit; how could that have drawn the gaze of his virtuous younger brother?
Now it seemed the other party had been eyeing them for a long time, just unsure of exactly when his senior sister would turn into a Dharma Corpse.
Thinking and thinking, Zhao Yan suddenly clapped his hands, then asked in a sneaky, low voice: “Then what is my situation now?”
[Rest assured, the Myriad Karma Corpse Immortal can no longer interfere with you.]
Only after truly entering this [Dream Scripture Pavilion] could Li Ang be certain that Bai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yan would not have a causal connection with that Lord of Nirvana for at least a hundred years.
After all, through [Great Luo Cave Observation], he could clearly see that no marks had been planted on their souls.
Hearing this, Zhao Yan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He did not want to have any more entanglements with the Myriad Karma Corpse Immortal; that “appetite” was truly not something a human could endure.
Given enough time, a Nirvana Corpse would sooner or later be overwhelmed by the desire to devour the vitality of the living.
‘After senior sister recovers, it seems necessary to let her die once more.’
Since he was working for someone anyway, Zhao Yan felt his current boss was more reliable.
Although his strength seemed inferior to that Lord of Nirvana, the benefits and treatment were far superior.
Just as he was thinking this, a mask phantom suddenly appeared before him.
Just as a Dharma Seeker could manifest a [Technique Soul], the magical treasures brought into the Silk Road naturally could too.
Not just him, Bai Xiaoxiao was the same.
Such a situation naturally attracted the attention of certain Dharma Seekers present.
They looked at the pale blue phantoms circling the two, their expressions varied.
A certain Dharma Seeker who looked like small fry flashed a malicious glint in his eyes: ‘What a huge profit; I didn’t expect to run into three fat sheep this time.’
Thinking of the gray-haired youth present who had also obtained two pale blue phantoms, he couldn’t help but hum lightly.
Unlike this small fry, another Dharma Seeker with a cold expression, upon seeing Bai Xiaoxiao, seemed to recall something, his expression suddenly becoming excited: “This attire...”
“Is it the one the sect ordered us to pay special attention to?”
Because the matter was of great importance, this Dharma Seeker began to recall the portrait he had seen in the sect not long ago with all his might.
After careful comparison, he was very certain that the small figure wearing the bronze mask in the distance was the target the sect was looking for.
“Great Divine Ability...”
Recalling Lord Heizhu, who was still seriously injured and unconscious, the Dharma Seeker couldn’t help but swallow hard.
He had found the person, but he couldn’t afford to provoke such a character; he should let the sect leader and the others decide what to do.
But this mysterious powerhouse really is related to the Thousand Machines Pavilion, right!? Otherwise, why would they appear here!
Thinking this, the Dharma Seeker immediately chose to leave the Silk Road.
Zhao Yan naturally noticed this person’s departure; after all, the other party was the “young master” he had observed earlier.
However, he didn’t take it to heart; in the end, he didn’t know the other party.
At this moment, Li Ang reminded the two.
[There might be some commotion next; pay attention.]
Then, before Zhao Yan and Bai Xiaoxiao could react, a strange aura slowly flowed out from within their bodies.
Li Ang was cautiously probing, wanting to see what kind of [Technique Soul] he could manifest.
Unfortunately, he had underestimated the commotion he could cause.
At this moment, the Dharma Seekers present suddenly discovered that the pale blue phantoms that had been floating quietly in the air suddenly began to sway, as if something was attracting them.
“What happened?”
“Unclear, I have never heard of such a situation occurring within the Silk Road.”
“Could it be that I am gifted, and these treasures have taken a liking to me?”
“...Who has been getting angry lately? Hurry over and wake him up with some urine.”
Listening to the discussions in their ears, Sister Miao and Dasheng looked at each other.
This... what is going on!? The Pavilion Master didn’t say anything about this!!
Even though they had executed many missions, this was the first time they had encountered such a change in the [Technique Souls] within the Silk Road.
‘Sister Miao, should we kick these people out? After all, the targeted goals have already been marked.’
‘Fine, kick them out first, then notify the Pavilion Master that an unknown change has occurred in the Silk Road.’
The two exchanged glances and quickly reached a consensus.
Just as they wanted to use their authority to kick the Dharma Seekers out of the Silk Road, the situation in the field changed again.
At this very moment, a massive number of pale blue phantoms were scrambling to fly toward a certain direction, as if afraid that if they arrived late, there wouldn’t be any left for them.
Seeing this, all the Dharma Seekers present showed somewhat bewildered expressions.
They didn’t know if it was an illusion, but they all felt that these [Technique Souls] seemed to be acting somewhat fawning.
Before they could figure out what was going on, a dragon roar that threatened to shatter their souls suddenly spread throughout the entire venue, and in the next moment, endless misty clouds filled their vision.
The Dharma Seekers looked in the direction of the dragon roar and saw a thin figure wearing a bronze mask being surrounded by a massive number of pale blue phantoms.
“...?”
However, the anomaly came quickly and went quickly.
In just the blink of an eye, the misty clouds that had filled the scripture pavilion were gone, and the thin figure who had caused the anomaly had also disappeared.
Such a bizarre development left the vast majority of Dharma Seekers present feeling confused, only Gao Haoguang and his group had their pupils shrink.
Clearly, they had recognized the identity of that thin figure.
It was the Great Divine Ability powerhouse they had met in Sanchuan Town not long ago!
With a slightly urgent mood, Gao Haoguang subconsciously urged: “Datou, is there any way to leave this place now?”
Hearing this, Haishan Le recovered from his shock and scratched his cheek: “I am not sure either...”
Although he was no stranger to the Silk Road, he really didn’t know how to actively leave this place.
Seeing that the strongest in their group had no way, the gray-haired youth frowned; after all, he still had important matters to find that mysterious powerhouse for.
If nothing else, just the [Heaven-Returning Blood Body] and [Heaven-Connecting Talisman] were enough for him to thank the other party properly, and by the way, ask why they would grant him such powerful divine abilities.
Just as he was feeling anxious about this, a terrifying suction force suddenly came from the gate of the scripture pavilion.
In the next moment, the Dharma Seekers were sucked back.
Soon, only two female figures remained in the field.
At this time, Dasheng looked at the place where the anomaly had just occurred, her fair throat rolling: “Miaomiao-jie, did you see that?”
Facing the question, Sister Miao subconsciously replied: “...Master, I’m not blind yet.”
After a brief exchange, the two fell into silence.
Recalling the scene they had just seen through the secret technique, their expressions gradually became dull.
What the hell was that!?
You must know that when the Pavilion Master taught them that secret technique, she only instructed them that any Dharma Seeker seen surrounded by strange light within the Silk Road must be “erased,” and they had always done so.
But just now, the master and disciple had discovered another existence surrounded by strange light through the secret technique.
The problem was that the other party didn’t have this situation at the beginning; their true realization that something was wrong through the secret technique started from the moment the anomaly appeared.
More importantly...
If a normally selected Dharma Seeker only had a small amount of strange light around them, the one just now had almost blinded their eyes.
After a brief silence, Sister Miao said in a rapid tone: “Dasheng, after we go out, contact the Pavilion Master; we must not let that person get away.”
Although she didn’t know what those strange lights represented, she understood that she and her master had likely encountered a big fish today.
“Mm!”
As the young girl nodded heavily, the two disappeared.
Just as the Dharma Seekers within the Silk Road were shocked by the anomaly that had just occurred, Bai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yan had already left the building street.
Recalling what had just happened, Zhao Yan couldn’t help but ask in his heart: “Are you alright?”
The dragon roar and clouds were clearly the Technique Soul manifested within the body of the person behind him.
‘Dragon Cultivation Society? North Wind City? Were those two factions that strong back then?’
Zhao Yan searched his brain but could only barely find two sects whose divine abilities had some connection to the anomaly just now.
However, now was not the time to dwell on such things; after all, it was the first time he had heard that person use such a serious tone.
[Tsk, no matter.]
“That’s good...”
Hearing this, Zhao Yan and Bai Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as the two quickened their pace, wanting to leave Shuanglou Town as soon as possible, Li Ang was looking with a gloomy face at his body that was constantly repairing itself under [Threefold Rebirth].
“Causal Law...”
He couldn’t understand why he hadn’t suffered the punishment of the Causal Law when he controlled Bai Xiaoxiao’s body to fight Heizhu last time, but this time, just wanting to see what [Technique Soul] he possessed, he had suffered the punishment of the Causal Law instead.
Fortunately, the injury wasn’t too serious, otherwise, the [Heaven-Returning Blood Body] he had just condensed might have been lost here.
A few seconds later, seeing that the injury had mostly recovered, Li Ang controlled his energy to condense a robe, then frowned and fell into deep thought.
‘Where exactly did it go wrong...’
Because there were too many variables, he couldn’t find out where the problem was for a while.
However, what could be ruled out was that the reason he hadn’t suffered the Causal Law punishment last time wasn’t because he had awakened some Causal Law divine ability in the future that could avoid damage; otherwise, there was no way to explain why he hadn’t been able to avoid the Causal Law punishment this time.
Just as Li Ang was brainstorming, Bai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yan, who were outside, suddenly stopped.
They looked at the white-haired man in the distance whose eyes were sewn shut, feeling as if they were facing a great enemy.
“I apologize to you on behalf of Heizhu for the previous offense; next, I hope you can do me the honor of having a proper talk with me.”
As he spoke, Xiang Yuyin glanced at Zhao Yan, his expression showing no fluctuation.
If he remembered correctly, in the intelligence provided by Heizhu earlier, there shouldn’t have been any mention of this person. ===== CHAPTER 644 =====
