Chapter 1453: Human or Ghost

Could it be that Jiang Tian recognized me?

A smile that is not a smile. What exactly is Jiang Tian thinking? Xiao Chen wondered as he looked away.

The other people in the group all felt somewhat depressed. No one would be satisfied with remaining here and doing nothing for one month.

This was especially so for the hemp-robed old man. If someone else obtained such a miraculous item like the Universe Origin Fruit, he would be so frustrated that he would vomit blood. Such a blow would destroy whatever fighting spirit he had left.

The middle-aged couple conversed in low voices. No one knew what they were thinking.

"Senior Jiang, since you are not willing to bring anyone with you, I\'ll proceed by myself. This is not my first time coming to the Mirage Immortal Palace, and I made some preparations of my own," the hemp-robed old man said indifferently. No longer able to endure, he took a step forward.

Jiang Tian could not be bothered. He waved his hand and said, "Please go on. Our agreement comes to an end here."

"Life and death are up to fate. Success and failure are up to heaven. I know what to do," Mu Yong said calmly and walked out of the boundaries of the formation, choosing to proceed alone. He probably did, indeed, have some trump cards and means up his sleeves.

After all, Mu Yong was someone who had gone to the Mirage Immortal Palace twice before and managed to survive.

"The two of us discussed it and decided to go down the mountain on our own as well. However, we would like to seek some advice from Senior Jiang." The middle-aged couple arrived before Jiang Tian, clearly wanting to get some guidance.

Jiang Tian did not reject their request. He said indifferently, "Yin and Yang are mixed up in this place; the five elements are in chaos. The night should be the calmest period. Walk for about two hours every day and do not rush. You should be able to get down the mountain in seven days.

"However, that is not absolute. Evaluate the risk yourselves and act accordingly."

After saying that, Jiang Tian gave the two a protective jade pendant, not saying anything more.

"Senior, thank you." The two thanked Jiang Tian. When night fell, they headed out right away.

Now, most of the people had left already. Only Xiao Chen and Feng Xiao remained. These two bladesmen had yet to make their choice.

Clearly, Feng Xiao could not make up his mind. He did not know what to do. So he asked Xiao Chen, "Brother Shadowless, what do you think?"

Naturally, Xiao Chen wanted to go on as well. However, it was clear that with his Geomaster training, he could barely protect himself; another person would just be a burden.

The importance of the Cycle Arts to Xiao Chen went without saying. He answered honestly, "With my strength, I should barely be able to protect myself. However, I cannot guarantee it when traveling with others."

Feng Xiao smiled and said, "Let\'s meet at the Mirage Immortal Palace, then. I hope we can reach there alive."

Xiao Chen entered deep thought, then took out a brocade box and handed it to Feng Xiao. There were some Dragon Fixing Needles in there, which Feng Xiao could use at a critical moment.

"What is this?" Feng Xiao asked, puzzled.

Xiao Chen replied calmly, "Just some trinkets. I refined them myself. They have some effect on evil things like ghosts."

Feng Xiao did not attach much importance to it. However, he was still very grateful. After casually accepting it, he said, "We will part here, then."

"Take care!"

After Feng Xiao left, only Xiao Chen and Jiang Tian remained. Jiang Tian smiled casually. "They are all gone already. Brat, you can now remove your mask, right?"

Without removing his mask, Xiao Chen asked suspiciously, "When did you recognize me?"

"I found you somewhat suspicious at first glance. You cannot hide the aura unique to a Geomaster. When you used your Dragon Fixing Needle, I was already almost certain. However, you did hide yourself really well."

Jiang Tian continued, "The entire world has already forgotten about you. They would never imagine that the Azure Dragon King from back then changed and became the current Shadowless Saber Sovereign."

These words left Xiao Chen speechless in tacit confirmation of the other party\'s guess.

"Cut the crap. How far have you cultivated your Heavenly Eye? Are you still cultivating the Paradise Secret Canon?" Jiang Tian asked seriously.

"Why are you asking this? I have not cultivated it for a long time already. These years, I have been focusing on the Saber Dao," Xiao Chen said with a trace of suspicion in his tone, not hiding anything.

Jiang Tian cursed and said, "You fool! To think that you put aside the Heavenly Eye and did not cultivate such a heaven-defying technique. So many people want something like that but are unable to obtain it. I can\'t be bothered with you. Originally, I thought you could help me a little. It looks like you are just a burden as well."

Xiao Chen felt ashamed in his heart at Jiang Tian\'s disdain. Based on the other party\'s tone, Jiang Tian intentionally got Mu Yong and the others to leave first.

"You still have the Dragon Revealing Mirror and the Dragon Subduing Platform—those two powerful Dragon Seeking Secret Treasures—right?"

"Yes."

"At least you are still useful. Make your preparations. Come with me to figure out what that group of Immortal Cultivators is planning." Jiang Tian finally voiced his aim. It turned out that he wanted to seek trouble for that group of Immortal Cultivators.

However, this went against Xiao Chen\'s plan. He was here to find the Cycle Arts. As long as that group of Immortal Cultivators was not targeting the Cycle Arts, it would have nothing to do with him.

"Help me with this, and I\'ll help you obtain the Cycle Arts. I know where it is."

"Deal!" Xiao Chen said directly without considering at all.

Jiang Tian smiled and said, "Really decisive. However, you have no choice but to agree. Had you rejected, I would directly go and help the Cyclic Astral Palace\'s people."

After making some preparations, Xiao Chen fused the throne into his black clothes. The Dragon Subduing Platform hovered quietly above his head as he walked side by side with Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian held the Worldly Wind Water Banner and pointed. The dark clouds slowly parted, and the sun, the moon, and the stars revealed themselves, flickering with bright lights.

Stargazing Technique!

Xiao Chen knew this as well. However, he was still far from Jiang Tian\'s skill. He did not understand that many astrological signs.

"What are you doing this for? Isn\'t the geography of this place here messed up already? You won\'t be able to make out anything from the changes of the stars," Xiao Chen asked, feeling confused.

"I\'m trying to see which mountain that group of Immortal Cultivators is on. Found them!"

Jiang Tian narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on the Ghost Mountain to the northwest. This Ghost Mountain was separated from theirs by the entire valley.

"Use your Heavenly Eye to check if I\'m right."

Xiao Chen removed his mask, and a vertical eye opened on his forehead. His vision extended infinitely. The scene in the distance magnified several times and appeared before him without a single detail missing.

When he was about to reach his limits, he finally saw an Immortal ship.

Xiao Chen could not maintain the Heavenly Eye for long. After he verified the Immortal ship, he prepared to release the technique.

However, just at this moment, another face suddenly appeared in the scene before his eyes.

The owner of this face was that white-clad woman that appeared on the mountain before they entered this place. Before Xiao Chen dismissed the Heavenly Eye, the other party\'s face seemed like it stuck to his face.

The beauty of this woman needed no description. She was perfect and flawless, appearing very clever; she looked extraordinary.

However, as Xiao Chen looked at that woman, he felt fear for some reason. He was startled into taking three steps back and messed up the final portion of dismissing the Heavenly Eye. Blood leaked out of a corner of his lips.

Upon seeing Xiao Chen vomit blood, Jiang Tian asked urgently with some excitement, "What did you see?"

Xiao Chen rested for a while before answering, "An Immortal ship and…a white-clad woman. I\'m not sure if it was a hallucination."

Jiang Tian, who thought that Xiao Chen could see a lot, said disappointedly, "The level of your Heavenly Eye is still too low. If you improved it to the level of Heavenly Divine Flying Eye, you would be able to see a lot of things."

The Heavenly Divine Flying Eye was just a level of the Heavenly Eye. When one attained it, one\'s Heavenly Eye could fly about, not restricted to the physical body.

However, Xiao Chen had never even thought of such a level before. It was simply too difficult.

"That woman…" Xiao Chen asked, feeling confused, "Wasn\'t it said that she wouldn\'t be appearing?"

Jiang Tian sighed and said, "I roughly know what they want to do already."

"That woman was the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady. She was the top person during the Immemorial Era and was infatuated with Immortals. After her Martial Cultivation reached the peak, she moved over nineteen Ghost Mountains and locked down the Mirage Immortal Palace\'s Spiritual Energy, preparing to cultivate as a Ghost Immortal."

Xiao Chen muttered, "Ghost Immortal? Since one cannot become a Celestial Immortal, using the Ghost Dao to become an Immortal is not impossible. The question is whether she succeeded or not."

"It\'s something that happened millions of years ago. Who knows the results? This group of Immortal Cultivators might be trying to find her body and dig out the method to cultivate as a Ghost Immortal."

Jiang Tian added worriedly, "If they really dig out some kind of ominous object and allow it to fly out of the Mirage Immortal Palace, the world will fall into chaos.

"Come, let\'s go over and take a look."

The Worldly Wind Water Banner spun around and doubled in size. Jiang Tian immediately stood on it. After thinking for a moment, Xiao Chen stepped onto it as well.

Xiao Chen really wanted to know whether this white-clad woman that he saw was human or ghost and whether she was the Ghost Immortal that Jiang Tian mentioned.
