Stone Cup, Blood Wine, Human Severance Finger; Three Incense Sticks Bowing Afar to Laurel-Breaking Mountain
Crack!
Crack, crack!
Several fissures split open in the void, and three figures stumbled out from within... White Robes? They were called White Robes because Jinren had seen their faces before.
They were three of the dozens whom Zhu Yike had previously sealed into paper with Vivid on the Page and thrown into the Spatial Fragment Flow.
Yet they did not look like White Robes! Their white robes were now dyed red with blood, their bodies covered in wounds. One of them had even lost an eyeball...
They looked more like Red Robes!
Red Robes in the literal sense—Red Robes who had just fought a bloody battle! "Dao Hall Master?"
"Huh? Dao Hall Master? It really is Dao Hall Master!"
The first two Sovereign-stage cultivators, upon seeing through the spatial cracks and spotting the impeccably dressed Dao Qiongchang, reacted first with suspicion.
Only afterward did they verify Dao Hall Master's identity through such certain factors as the Heavenly Secrets Compass, the Heavenly Mechanism Puppet, Qingyuan Mountain, and so on.
The moment those two spoke, Dao Qiongchang's brows furrowed.
Jin Feng, a metal-element Taixu, had served in the White Robes for thirty-two years. Known for his absolute offense, he had made his name with the Heaven-Wounding Darkgold Spear.
Huang Zhao, an earth-element Taixu, had served in the White Robes for forty-six years. For the first twenty-three, he had become renowned for the immovable defense of an old turtle that would rather die than budge, though his battle record was somewhat ordinary compared to other White Robes.
In the latter half of his life, he partnered with Jin Feng. The two formed a team, offense and defense fused as one, multiplying their combat strength several times over. They could hold back ten-man White Robes squads and had even endured a Demi-Saint's strike.
