The other party’s suona seemed to be conducting a predetermined magic ritual.
Then it affected the surrounding magnetic fields of heaven and earth, forming a curvature bubble-like state, triggering some kind of space distortion mechanism, and traveling into the interstitial space.
Is this a divine technique?
Lu Ren’s eyes brightened, using Heart Eye Observation, he kept exploring this now football-shaped magnetic field.
Perhaps this method could allow him to travel between the Kunlun frontier base in Huaxia and the New Dynasty in a very short time.
He roughly calculated the time in his heart, and nearly half an hour had passed.
The entire magnetic field was slowly collapsing, and the surrounding scenery, which had turned into threads, also slowed down.
Then it stopped completely, and the scene that had been dragged into threads reappeared at this moment.
The surrounding world had drastically changed, and what he saw was no longer the outline of Crescent Town but a mountain gate, decorated luxuriously, with meticulous materials. Four-clawed dragons embraced it, and on top were glazed jade tiles, looking quite extravagant.
The Master of Ceremonies turned to look at Lu Ren, pale-faced, even with frost-like crystals falling down.
Lu Ren saw this and thought to himself.
The Master of Ceremonies looked as if about to collapse from exhaustion, seeing that Lu Ren’s soul and body remained intact without signs of separation, showing slight astonishment, no wonder he looked half-dead.
Yet he said nothing more.
He cupped his hands, forced a smile, and said, "Great Hero, we have arrived at the Mountain Lady’s palace!"
Lu Ren asked, "How far is this from Crescent Town?"
The Master of Ceremonies answered, "Just now, we traveled three thousand miles with the Divine Travel, reaching the edge of the East Pole Continent, bordering the Northern Continent, leaving the New Dynasty!"
"East Pole Continent?!"
Lu Ren blurted out, confirming once again.
Seeing Lu Ren’s shocked expression, the Master of Ceremonies seemed used to it, smiling with pride, "Thanks to the Mountain Lady’s favor, she bestowed upon me the Divine Travel Suona, allowing me to reach this mountain gate in three days from that corner."
Has it already been three days?!
Lu Ren remained expressionless, nodding slightly.
The Master of Ceremonies gestured towards the mountain gate, with a hint of a smile returning to his natural demeanor.
"Please, Great Hero!"
Lu Ren looked up towards the mountaintop, and when his Spirit and Will surged, with Superdimensional Perception activated, he saw not a splendid mountain gate but two rotting wooden posts swaying, with insects coming and going from holes in the wood.
That was no glazed tile; Lu Ren saw only weather-beaten broken tiles.
This was not a luxurious mountain gate but a dilapidated, precarious bird house.
And the path upwards led only to a dilapidated temple of unknown construction time.
Above the dilapidated temple, a blood-red light soared skyward, making Lu Ren nauseous.
Lu Ren’s eyes flickered, then he looked at the Master of Ceremonies, remaining calm.
"Is your Mountain Lady in the main palace above?"
The Master of Ceremonies replied, "Of course!"
He was full of joy, "Great Hero, if the Mountain Lady favors you, it would be a great blessing, great fortune indeed!"
Lu Ren was noncommittal, "Indeed, a great blessing."
As he spoke, Lu Ren’s hand emitted a faint glow, reaching out and grabbing the Master of Ceremonies’ head. Googlᴇ search novelFirｅ.net
The Master of Ceremonies was taken aback, and facing the undisguised killing intent in Lu Ren’s eyes, he screamed in horror.
"How dare you in the Mountain’s..."
Like squeezing a watermelon, the Master of Ceremonies’ head exploded, pulverized under the magnetic field driven by Lu Ren’s Spirit and Will.
If there were words for it, it would be the annihilation of his Divine Soul.
The four Inflated Ghosts carrying the sedan chair lost control, their eyes cleared, and they all began wailing.
"I can’t believe I did so many soul-crushing deeds."
The ghosts rolled on the ground in grief, wanting to die in despair, finally prostrating before Lu Ren.
An elderly ghost among them cried bitterly, his old tears streaming, "Master, the sins we committed are innumerable, please grant us death, to atone for the spirits of those we harmed in the heavens!"
A burly middle-aged man cried out.
"I was once a soldier defending my country, how did I become a scourge harming others? That demon harmed me, harmed me!!!"
Lu Ren sighed inwardly, these four couldn’t cross this hurdle, ghostly Qi enveloped them, smoke billowing, almost tangible, their indignation couldn’t be soothed.
They were on the verge of becoming fierce ghosts, the surrounding magnetic field also surging accordingly.
Lu Ren pondered, then pointed towards the mountain top.
"Your enemies are up there, why not do something for the people before your demise."
They immediately ceased their cries, exchanged a glance, then howled in unison, dragging billowing black mist towards the mountaintop.
Lu Ren sighed again, these ghosts had clearly resolved to die.
At that moment, he hesitated no more, grasping his sword hilt, he walked towards the mountaintop.
He wanted to see what exactly this Mountain Lady was.
Striding along, stepping over several steps with each stride, moving like a dragon or tiger.
Lu Ren was gathering momentum, also gathering strength, once on the mountaintop, he planned to cut violently, shattering the world.
In less than three minutes, Lu Ren charged to the mountaintop, the sight along the way further stirred a violent killing intent within his heart.
White bones accumulated, fur piles, the stench of rotting flesh overwhelming.
What made Lu Ren even colder was, on the mountain, many people, emaciated to the bone, were energetically performing unspeakable acts, having their essence and Yang Qi drained by those demons.
Their faces were filled with blissful smiles, clearly besmirched by lost souls.
These people likely thought they had reached an immortal realm, brought up by those Master of Ceremonies, only to find themselves drained of blood and flesh, becoming another heap of white bones beneath.
What greeted them were the four Inflated Ghosts frenziedly tearing at a demon with a pig head and human body, bearing a distended belly.
Is this what you call a demon?!
Seeing it with his own eyes, Lu Ren was indeed curious.
Theoretically speaking, if plants or animals lived long enough, some with Spiritual traits would spontaneously start gathering magnetic fields, merging under their influence, the body starting a transformation, nurturing Spiritual consciousness and awareness, capable of self-recognition.
Such phenomena have been tested in the real world, in environments with strong magnetic fields, maintained at a certain level of stable fluctuation, some animals can gain intelligence.
Such as foxes, snakes, weasels, passed down through ancient times, these creatures seem to have a structural advantage in their Spirit Body compared to others, enabling them to more readily birth self-awareness, commence cultivation, and consciously or unconsciously reform their bodies through magnetic fields.
This transformation process is extremely lengthy, taking potentially hundreds of years to complete a metamorphosis.
At this speed, ninety-nine percent would die of old age, unable to await the day when the magnetic field and awareness fully transform the body.
