Purely in terms of strength, Misty Flying Sword truly outshone the Illusion Mirror somewhat, and the gap between them could not be bridged overnight.
At this time, the mana cultivated by the Primordial Unity Scripture was already prepared to intervene at any moment, reconciling the suddenly tense relationship among the three. Yet the performance of the Illusion Mirror genuinely caught Lu Xiaotian somewhat off guard. Right away, he halted his mediation, wanting to see what kind of changes would emerge in the Illusion Mirror under intense pressure.
Those five portals each radiated five different types of aura: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
The sword intent evolved by Misty Flying Sword assaulted the Illusion Mirror, and the mirror suddenly darted into one of the portals and vanished.
The sword intent evolved by Misty Flying Sword abruptly struck empty air. The Illusion Mirror then drilled out from another portal. By the time the Sword Qi changed direction and once again lunged at the mirror, it repeated the same trick, escaping into yet another portal. The Sword Qi also attempted to chase into the portal, but before it could draw near, that portal had already closed.
