How did you find us?
This is the point that Perfected Jingxuan finds most incomprehensible.
Their own Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror is an extremely rare spatial Spirit Treasure, possessing cloud and mist attributes, and its concealment ability is unparalleled in the Mingguang Realm.
Perfected Jingxuan, carrying this treasure of his sect, infiltrated the capital of the Great Xuan Imperial Court, coming within arm's reach of the Xuan Emperor, the strongest being in the Mingguang Realm, yet was not discovered by the latter.
Logo is clearly a Wood-attribute Azure Lotus Holy Spirit, so why was he able to sense the presence of the Cloud Mirror Gate group?
Faced with Perfected Jingxuan's confusion and doubt, Logo simply chuckled and offered no explanation.
Seeing this, Perfected Jingxuan Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror tightly, forced a smile, and said, "This time, it is our Cloud Mirror Gate that has suffered a defeat. Our sect is willing to compensate you for all your losses and establish a spiritual pact to never be your enemy again for all eternity. We hope you can spare these elders. What do you say?"
"Pah! You're as shameless as flies trying to wrap a net! Haha, the Cloud Mirror Gate, you really are a bunch of cowardly rats, utterly shameless, living up to the evaluations given to you by other sects!"
Lying on the ground with only half his body remaining, Li Wushe spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, looking at Perfected Jingxuan with Li Wushe. His words caused Perfected Jingxuan's face to darken suddenly, and he looked at him with murderous intent.
But as the leader of a sect, an old monster who has lived for nearly a thousand years, Perfected Jingxuan is quite shrewd. After taking a deep breath, he looked at Logo and understood that this was the one who decided everything.
Above the sky, the wind was as smooth as silk, Logo stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, as if a celestial being had descended to earth.
After hearing what Perfected Jingxuan said, he didn't show the same contempt and ridicule as Li Wushe. Everyone has their own way of doing things, Logo himself has his moments of flexibility. In some ways, he and Perfected Jingxuan are more similar in certain characteristics.
As for Li Wushe, only Lancelot would probably like that brute.
A moment of silence fell over the world as everyone awaited Logo's decision.
After a moment's thought, Logo took a step back, raised his right hand, and smiled, "How about we make a bet?"
"What bet?" Perfected Jingxuan asked in a deep voice.
"What you possess is nothing more than this mirror. I suppose you are aware that you can escape my grasp by relying on this treasure." Logo pointed to the Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror in the hand of Perfected Jingxuan.
The latter narrowed his eyes. "So what if it is?"
"Since that's the case, let's make a bet. If you can escape a thousand miles away, I'll spare your Cloud Mirror Gate; if not..."
"Then I am willing to lead the Cloud Mirror Gate to submit to Your Excellency! And I will offer you our sect's most treasured artifact, the Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror!"
Perfected Jingxuan finished speaking before Logo could finish.
In truth, he knew that if he held the sect's most precious spiritual Spirit Treasure, he wouldn't even be able to escape a thousand miles. If he continued to resist, most of the high-ranking members of the Cloud Mirror Gate would be wiped out. It would be better for him to submit to this Azure Lotus Holy Spirit.
If you can't beat them, just join them! Besides, there's nothing shameful about working under Holy Spirit with a bright future and destined for ascension!
Judging from the strength displayed by this Azure Lotus Holy Spirit, it will likely ascend to the Upper Realm in less than a hundred years. By then, won't the Cloud Mirror Gate be restored to its former glory?
Given this situation, continuing to be stubborn will only bring disaster; agreeing to the bet made by the Azure Lotus Holy Spirit is the best option.
"Very good, you're a smart person, then come on!"
Logo nodded slightly, and Five-Colored Divine Light burst forth from his outstretched palm, spreading for thousands of miles in an instant.
Perfected Jingxuan focused his gaze and his expression changed slightly. He saw that the Five-Colored Divine Light was intertwined and densely packed like a net, resembling illusory dragons coiling in all directions, actually sealing off all spatial fluctuations.
With just this one move, one of the core abilities of their Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror —spatial teleportation—was rendered unusable.
If one were to travel a thousand miles by flying alone, no matter how fast, it would still take a certain amount of time.
However, Perfected Jingxuan also understood that the person before him must have some confidence to set up such a gamble, so although he was surprised that Logo could seal the space, he could understand it.
"No wonder he was able to discover our hiding place; it turns out he also has such mastery of spatial manipulation!"
"And this Five-Colored Divine Light... originating from the element of wood, encompassing all five elements? What immense power! Legend has it that the Divine Realm possesses such a terrifying Great God, capable of eradicating all things under heaven..."
Perfected Jingxuan only glanced at the five-colored interwoven net, yet he immediately sensed the profound Daoist essence contained within it.
The Five-Colored Divine Light reflected the five elements, and many phantom images flashed across it, including lush green trees, forests of flames, surging waves, golden spears and iron horses, and undulating earth. Various divine beasts also flashed by, which made people's hearts tremble.
"Aren't you going to run?" Logo laughed. "If you don't run now, you'll have no chance at all!"
Upon hearing this, Perfected Jingxuan suppressed his shock, and with a thought, he vanished instantly amidst swirling clouds and mist around him.
Upon closer inspection, the shadow of a mythical beast could be seen emerging beneath its seat.
This spirit beast is translucent, with starlight shimmering at the tips of its claws, as if it were forged from clouds and mist. It can travel a hundred miles in an instant, and with a few leaps, it can break through a thousand miles.
"There's a hidden spirit beast? Interesting!"
Logo, however, remained calm and composed. After glancing at Perfected Jingxuan with interest, a thought struck him, and Five-Colored Divine Light intertwined in the sky, eventually transforming into a deep, dark black.
The dark divine light was like a sea, and with a long cry, a huge fish emerged from it. In mid-air, it transformed into a golden roc. With a flap of its wings, it caught up with Perfected Jingxuan in an instant, and its claws, like hooks, grabbed at the latter's waist.
"Golden-Winged Great Peng Eagle!"
"No, this is the shadow of the Kunpeng!"
Perfected Jingxuan's heart sank. The Legend divine beast had come to capture him personally, and the sense of oppression was overwhelming.
This Azure Lotus Holy Spirit still has energy left!
"However, catching me won't be that easy!"
' Thousand-Illusion Cloud Body!'
With a thought, Perfected Jingxuan's eyes blazed with intense light, and his body split into nine, transforming into nine cloud-like clones that fled in all directions.
This is the Cloud Mirror Gate's ultimate escape technique, capable of splitting into nine bodies. Any one of them can instantly swap positions with the original body, making it incredibly wondrous.
When the Jiuyuan Realm first descended, Perfected Jingxuan was unlucky and was besieged by a group of the Fourth Realm spirit beasts. He managed to escape by using his Thousand-Illusion Cloud Body.
"This time will be no exception!"
Perfected Jingxuan's resolve was firm, but the next moment, he heard a deafening cry that shook the heavens and stopped the clouds in its tracks. His mind went blank, and he lost all ability to think.
"Soul attack..."
As the last thought flashed through his mind, Perfected Jingxuan felt a pair of cold iron claws grab his waist. An extremely terrifying force surged through his mind, as if a slight exertion could tear him apart.
"We still couldn't escape!"
Feeling the immense distance between them, even though they were so close, Perfected Jingxuan smiled bitterly to himself. And just like that, he was carried back to Logo by the golden eagle.
