“Back off!”
At a critical moment, a harsh yell erupted from behind the group of Great Truemen and Half Sages. A black sword beam cut through the air.@@@@
If the black of the Black Water was the absence of light, evil and anomaly, then the black of Supreme Origin Profound Sovereign’s sword beam was the slayer of illusion and time.
Unparalleled sharpness and deadliness. That was what the Yu Qing Demonslaying Sword Intent was.
In one slash, the rampaging waves were cut in half.
The sword intent wasn’t done though. It grew even stronger and travelled all the way down to its depths, splitting the Black Water in two.
The sides of the cut were completely still.
The sword not only split the Black Water in half, but also severed the flow of the river temporarily.
The cut was so powerful that almost everyone had frozen in place.
“What are you waiting for? Get to the shore already!”
Supreme Origin Profound Sovereign grunted when he saw this, jolting the group out of their reverie and urging them toward the shore.
While the cut kept the Black River suppressed, Silver Moon Sacred Lord waved her sleeve and caused her silver moon to freeze the surface of the Black Water once more.
Thanks to the teamwork of four Sages, the rest of the group ultimately managed to cross the Black Water safely.
No one looked happy, however. The Great Truemen and Half Sages were especially worried.
They hadn’t even entered the Kunlun Ruins, and the Black Water had already cost them two Great Truemen and a Half Sage. What would they encounter when they entered the Kunlun Ruins, a place that was surely even more dangerous than the Black Water?
What kind of fate was awaiting them all?
The four Sages were far less concerned about the deaths. What they were concerned about was the fact that the method to cross the Black Water left behind by their ancestors were useless.
Was it because their ancestors were mistaken?
Or was it because of some other reason?
A moment of silence later, Cyan Radiance Superior Celestial said suddenly, “It’s probably because someone had already crossed the Black Water ahead of us.”
“What do you mean?”
Everyone turned to look at the East Kunlun Sage.
Cyan Radiance Superior Celestial explained slowly, “Do you remember this line from our ancestors’ notebook? ‘The Black Water is sentient, so it can only be crossed once per day.’”
“That is true.”
Jiang Yunlai nodded. “It all makes sense now. Someone had already crossed the Black Water before us. That was why the Black Water was so violent when it was our turn to cross it.”
In fact, it would have flown out of his hand if he wasn’t keeping it restrained.
“Chirp chirp!”
“Chirp chirp!”
“Chirp chirp!”
The group was still confused when a series of bird chirps drew their attention. They saw dozens of Crimson Luans descending from the tree and circling above their heads.
All this time, the Crimson Sun Mirror’s struggles only grew worse.
Supreme Origin Profound Sovereign frowned a little before making the snap decision to release the mirror.
The next moment, the Crimson Sun Mirror flew into the air and stayed there.
The Crimson Luans began flying around the Crimson Sun Mirror like they were dancing, and chirping softly as if singing.
Gradually, the Radiant Tree’s branches began shaking, and the red flowers began swaying. From below, it looked as if an inferno was consuming the sky, and everything was painted red because of it.
The next moment, the crimson light gathered into a single beam and hit the Crimson Sun Mirror.
The Crimson Sun Mirror immediately shone brightly and brilliantly like the sun.
As time passed, the Crimson Sun Mirror slowly melted and transformed into a dazzling ball of light.
“Chirp!!!”
A dozen or so breaths later, a long, loud chirp came from the ball of light, and it shattered to reveal a fiery red Crimson Luan.
The newborn was clearly smaller than the other Crimson Luans. Its cries sounded quite childish as well.
“Chirp chirp chirp!”
The newborn Crimson Luan looked and sounded incredibly happy. It crossed necks with the other Crimson Luans like old friends and danced with them.
“So long as the Radiant Tree still stands, the Crimson Luan is eternal...”
Cyan Radiance Superior Celestial murmured softly.
The Crimson Sun Mirror was created from the body of a Crimson Luan stolen by the ancestors of the Jiang Clan and the Ji Clan.
The Crimson Luan was born from the essence of the Radiant Tree. If it resided in the Radiant Tree, then it would leave forever. On the other hand, it would die if it left the Radiant Tree. That was why the Crimson Luan they stole died not long after they left the Radiant Tree, and its body was made into the Crimson Sun Mirror.
No one thought that the Crimson Luan could be reborn after it returned to the Radiant Tree, however. Despite having died and being made into the Crimson Sun Mirror thousand of years ago, the Radiant Tree’s divine power was such that it was reborn in flames. It was quite amazing to say the least.
“Chirp chirp!”
After rejoicing its rebirth for a bit, the newborn Crimson Luan suddenly looked at the group and let out a series of chirps. It was clearly filled with indignance and fury.
