Chapter 1379: A Frank Smile
et from its original two hundred zhang to over four hundred zhang, but also gave birth to the light of seeking truth, which attracted the attention of the old guardian.As it happened, the Dao God Temp...Deep within the Yaodao Sect, inside a great hall unseen by outsiders, Xuepao and Zuoqiuzi still sat facing each other.
However, there was no chessboard in front of the two of them anymore, and their faces were both incredibly solemn, their brows furrowed. They remained silent, their eyes occasionally glancing towards the outside of the hall, as if waiting for someone.
And by this time, three days had passed since the mirage vanished.
After a short while, a figure appeared outside the main hall!
This is an elderly man with white hair and a face full of wrinkles. His eyes are filled with the wisdom of experience, and above his eyebrows there are eight colorful markings!
Seeing this person, Zuoqiuzi and Blood Robe simultaneously stood up, their faces filled with surprise as they said: "Daoist Jiang, how could it be that you came in person!"
If Gingercloud could see this old man at this very moment, she would certainly recognize him at once.
The other party was the one who once brought a young man named Jiang Yuewang to the Shan Hai Realm to find Grandpa's Jiang clan member, Jiang Zhan!
Whether it's Xue Pao or Zuo Qiu Zi, with their status, they all know the true origin of the Strange Tower and understand that a Mirage Tower should never appear within the Heavenly Realm of Daoists!
Therefore, when the mirage first appeared in Yaodao Heaven, Zuoqiuzi had already sent people to inquire with the Ginger Clan. The reply was that the Ginger Clan would investigate the matter.
And three days prior, the reappearance of the mirage, witnessed by both Zuo Qiuzi and the Blood Robed Man, finally made them realize that these past few days, the mirage had all along been hidden within that valley.
So even though the mirage vanished right before their eyes this time, they didn't dare to assume it was gone for good, having learned from their previous experience. They could only contact the Ginger Clan once again, and that brought forth this Ginger Warrior.
Ginger Zhan bowed to the two robed in blood and said, "Thank you both for waiting. Our Ginger clan has made some progress on this matter."
As soon as Jiang Zhan's voice fell, Zuo Qiuzi immediately said urgently, "Daoist Jiang, we should go to the place where the mirage tower disappeared first. You can take a look yourself and see if the mirage tower has truly disappeared or if it has been hidden deep within the spatial depths."
"Good!"
Then the three of them hurried to the place where the mirage had disappeared that day. The original valley here had vanished, replaced by a wasteland.
While Jiang Zhan glanced around, the eight marks above his eyebrows flickered slightly. He saw eight beams of light whooshing out, circling once before disappearing back into his brow.
Jiang Zhan shook his head and said, "There is indeed the residual breath of mirages here, but now, it's gone!"
Zuo Qiuzi frowned and said, "What's going on"
"It's fine if it happens once, but to have it happen twice in a row makes me extremely uneasy. Could something big be about to happen"
"You have to know, once a noble's mirage encounters misfortune, this entire world might suffer the consequences!"
Jiang Zhan couldn't help but smile wryly, "Master Zu, please calm down. This matter is indeed our oversight. We never expected that someone would be able to crack the seal pattern on our clan's sacred artifact, thereby gaining some control over the Mirage Realm."
The blood-robed man's face showed surprise as he said, "Who has such great ability"
"Ginger shook his head. 'We can't know that for now, but at least the core of the mirage hasn't shifted.' "
"However, just in case, I still need to enter the Yinling Realm Beast's body. After all, Zuo Dao You's worries do have a sliver of possibility of coming true!"
"What!"
Left Qiuzi was originally just complaining, but he didn't expect that his worry might actually come true. This made his face change drastically.
Not only him, but even Xuepao's face changed color: "Is it really that serious"
Ginger nodded. "There's a possibility, but it's very small."
The Blood Robed man decisively said, "Within a boundary beast's body, there must be no mistakes! If what you say is true, then we will accompany you into it this time!"
"Besides, I contacted Wu Yang three days ago, they should be getting back to us soon. Should we invite them along"
"That's not necessary at all!" Jiang Zhan waved his hand. "I said the possibility is slim. Not to mention calling up Wu Yang and the others, even if it were just the two of you, there's no need to follow me in."
"After all, what if... that person found out Then it would be troublesome!"
At this point, Jiang Zhan pointed upwards with his finger.
The two in blood robes both understood, so after a moment's thought, they could only nod and say: "Since that's the case, you can only go in alone!"
"Well, I'll go in and take a look first. If it's really as I said, then I'll call you guys over later too."
"Good!"
Mirages are sacred relics of the ginger clan. Since Ginger said so, naturally Zuo Qiuzi and Xue Pao wouldn't insist any further.
And so, the eight colored marks above Jiang Zhan's eyebrows once again shot out eight beams of light, constantly rotating and converging in mid-air, as if they were about to condense into a door.
It's a pity that after so long, this door never took shape!
This caused Jiang Zhan's face to suddenly turn unsightly. "Bad, I can't enter the Mirage Tower!"
"What!"
This time, Xuepao and Zuochuzi both spoke at the same time.
As members of the ginger clan, being unable to enter their own sacred relic was something they both found unbelievable.
However, looking at Jiang Zhan's demeanor, it does seem like he isn't lying.
Jiang Zhan frowned tightly and said, "Both of you, I've never encountered such a situation before, so I must immediately return to the clan and report this matter to the chief."
Seeing Jiang Zhan turn to leave, the man in red shouted, "Hold on!"
"Senior Jiang, I understand that as an outsider, there are some things I shouldn't say. But between the nobility and us, we can be considered friends who share life and death. So today I'll be bold and ask a question: has something happened within the nobility"
"This..."
The question of the blood robe caused a flicker of hesitation on Jiang Zhan's face.
As Bloodrobe said, there's been a terrible incident in their clan. Ginger Uncle and a group of people suddenly disappeared without a trace, and they still haven't been found to this day.
But the Mirage, this holy relic belonging to the Ginger clan, is actually controlled by Ginger Uncle!
Although Uncle Ginger had taught the method of controlling the mirage tower to himself and the chief before leaving, this method was now inexplicably ineffective. The most likely reason was that the right to control the mirage tower had been taken by someone else.
And this also means that Uncle Ginger and his group, may have encountered unforeseen circumstances!
These things are huge secrets of the Ginger Clan. Even though Blood Robe and his own clan were sworn brothers, Jiang Zhan couldn't tell them anything about it.
"I apologize to both of you!" After a moment's thought, Jiang Zhan bowed deeply to the two and said: "As I said before, after I consult with the chieftain, I will naturally give you an explanation."
Xue Pao nodded, just about to speak, when he suddenly reached out and pulled out a communication jade slip. "Wu Yang has replied,"
Xue Pao didn't shy away, and in front of the two people, he crushed the jade slip. Inside, a phantom figure of Uyanger appeared.
"Blood Robe, you guessed it right. The Dao Demon Spirit you took from us back then has already met a Spirit Refiner and helped him condense the Five Elements Cave Heaven."
"And, we had just parted ways with this person not long ago."
As she spoke, Uyáng snapped her fingers, and a flame flared from her fingertips, coalescing into the image of a young man.
"His name is Jiang Yun, and at present, he seems to be a friend rather than an enemy!"
Looking at the image of Jiang Yun before him, the man in blood robes gradually relaxed his furrowed brows and said, "This person is exactly the one who entered the Mirage Tower earlier. Therefore, he must have recognized me and deliberately used the talisman that condensed the power of the five elements to call me over, just to confirm my identity."
At this point, the Blood Robed figure turned to Jiang Zhàn and said, "Jiang Daoist friend, you don't need to worry. Since Jiang Yun is on our side, then he entering..."
The Blood Robe's words were cut short abruptly.
Because he discovered that at this moment, Jiang Zhan, who was also gazing at Jiang Yun's figure, not only had his complexion returned to normal but also revealed a cheerful smile!
