Chapter 4496
With that thought in mind, Jade Archive Xiao Hua emerged from the space and focused his mind on his physical body. His hands did not seem to make any hand seals as his physical body began to slowly transform. First, it was various forms of humans, then beasts, and finally, plants and flowers. It was incredibly lifelike!
At the same time that Xiao Hua was cultivating the Qingqiu Sect's secret art, the dozens of pavilions outside the Star-Plucking Tower were now spinning faster. The flames and colorful lotuses that were the silhouettes of light before were now clouds, while the Star-Plucking Tower that was shaped like a pagoda was now slowly becoming oval.
As the clouds fell into the sky, pillars of Noble Qi crashed down. As the pavilions spun, rays of starlight swayed and appeared. The light screen of stars and moon also gradually rose from the pillars of Noble Qi.
"Rumble …" When the space hundreds of miles around the Star Plucking Tower was filled with clouds and starlight, the entire ground began to shake. Amidst the rumbling, the Star Plucking Tower was uprooted out of thin air. Beneath the ground, the Star Plucking Tower's foundation broke through the ground.
Rocks tumbled and mountain ridges collapsed. A thousand-mile-long ship flew out from the ground. Lightning arcs flashed around it as it rose into the air!
The ship looked similar to the thunder ship, but in reality, there was a huge difference. The Star Plucking Tower in the center of the ship alone was something the thunder ship did not have.
Moreover, the lightning arcs around the ship looked powerful, but in reality, they were still relying on the power of the clouds, stars, and moon. They were far less powerful than the thunder ship.
The flying ship first soared into the sky. Countless Great Qi pillars in the void crashed into the defensive array outside the ship. Auspicious clouds floated out from the defensive array. "Woo woo …" Amidst the whistling of the wind, the flying ship began to slowly fly towards the rising sun …
Xiao Hua hid in the quiet room to cultivate. In the beginning, his physical body still had some shape and could transform into all things in the world. However, in the end, his body no longer looked like a body, nor did it have a fixed shape. It turned into a stream of light and also turned into floating clouds. Spots of light were finally born in the Capital Star Array, as if stars were flashing in the sky.
In front of Xiao Hua's eyes, the colorful world that he saw when he used the Lightning Escape to its limit was faintly born again!
Xiao Hua did not dare to slack off, nor did he dare to further comprehend that level. He merely maintained his original state, carefully comprehending and observing the state of his physical body. The secret arts of Qingqiu flowed in his mind like a clear spring.
After an unknown amount of time, the light spots in the entire space flickered and instantly gathered together. Xiao Hua's silhouette was revealed. At the same time, thousands of phantoms emerged from the silhouette like a peacock spreading its tail. When the phantoms were annihilated, Xiao Hua's smiling figure quietly stood in mid-air!
At this moment, Xiao Hua seemed to be standing in the air, yet also seemed to be drawn into the void. His body seemed to be in the light, yet also seemed to be in the darkness. Between the light and the darkness, strands of twisted light rapidly flowed out of Xiao Hua's body.
The distorted Xiao Hua seemed to be both real and illusory at the same time. He was stepping on the boundary between real and illusory.
"So that's how it is!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Hua's lips. It had more charm than before, but the compassion in his black and white eyes did not change at all. Xiao Hua mused to himself. "So-called transformations are nothing more than the combination of light and physical body. The inferior would use the physical body to drive light and shadow, the mediocre would use light and shadow to power the physical body, while the superior would fuse light and shadow together with the physical body!
It's a pity … Even if the Qingqiu lineage knows that Yin and Yang are adept at transformations, they would never know that there is a Light Escape Technique in this world, one that allows one to hide in light as an escape technique!
Light and shadow would fuse with the physical body at a superficial level, and the physical body would fuse with light and shadow at a profound level! "
"In the end, the art of Yin and Yang is the true foundation of the Qingqiu lineage, while transformations are but a minor detail!
And yet, I was able to comprehend the surface of it in such a short period of time. Senior Xu, the Immortal Realm's Enforcer of Punishments, had not gained much from the legacy of Qingqiu Mountain for so long.
Aside from the fact that Senior Xu had never practiced the Art of Heaven and Earth Manipulation before, it is also because Senior Xu does not possess a daemon form and could not grasp the mysteries of the daemons' cultivation of the power of stars and moon. More importantly, Senior Xu has never refined the Rainbow Bone, which means he could not comprehend the mysteries of light and physical body! "
Xiao Hua's brow lifted at the thought, an indescribable elegance appearing between his brows. He floated up from the praying mat, raised a hand and grasped. His hand instantly turned into a sheet of light and shadow, and the hundreds of jade talismans that had been laid out in a formation fell into his hand like swallows returning to their nest.
Just as he put away the jade talismans, a faint voice wafted from outside the sanctuary. "Xiao Hua …"
"This junior is here!" Xiao Hua hurriedly replied. "Is something the matter, Senior Xu?"
"The Chidi River is up ahead!
If you don't have anything urgent to cultivate, come out of seclusion first! "Xu Zhi did not use his divine ability, but only transmitted his voice softly from outside.
Xiao Hua flew to the door of the sanctuary, urged his body to pass through the pavilion, and appeared in front of Xu Zhi. He smiled and said, "This junior has already finished his meditation and was waiting for Senior to summon me!"
"Oh?"
Xu Zhi's gaze swept over Xiao Hua, and he could not help but be surprised. Behind him, Fairy Xing Yue also said curiously, "Xiao Hua, you … you seem to have changed into a different person!"
Xiao Hua touched his nose and said with a wry smile, "Seniors, what do you mean?
I've only been cultivating in seclusion for dozens of days. Why do I seem to have changed into a different person? "
"The ancients have said that a scholar who has been away for three days should be looked at with new eyes!"
Fairy Xing Yue looked up and down at Xiao Hua again, pursed her lips, and said with a smile, "This sentence is especially suitable for you!
Previously, you were like a Xiaohua. Although you were budding, you were abnormally shy and had a bit of a dusty aura.
But now, this Xiaohua has bloomed. Not only is its fragrance assailing the nose, but it is also glorious. Even if light dust falls on it, it will produce a luster!
Not to mention other things, just this little habit of yours of wiping your nose. It looked a little funny before, but now … it has a kind of cute and attractive charm. Even I … can't help but feel a sense of familiarity! "
"Elder sister!" Xiao Hua said with a wry smile, "Can you not be so mushy?
Why does it sound like there's a lot of cosmetics? "
"Xingyue is right!" Xu Zhi said meaningfully, "You have indeed made me look at you in a new light!"
"Senior, you flatter me!" Xiao Hua understood tacitly and bowed. "This is all thanks to Senior's kindness. This junior dares not forget it!"
Xu Zhi helped Xiao Hua up and said, "Opportunities are opportunities!
This is the will of the heavens. "
"What are the two of you doing behind my back again?" Fairy Xing Yue asked. When she saw the two of them acting like this, she immediately understood something.
"If you give Xingyue to Xiao Hua, I will consider telling you!" Xu Zhi turned to look at Fairy Xing Yue and said calmly.
When Xiao Hua heard this, he smiled wryly in his heart and thought, "Senior Xiao, are you trying to help me or set a trap for me?"
Xiao Hua naturally wanted Xingyue, but Fairy Xing Yue clearly had her own plans and had no intention of handing it over to him.
When Xiao Hua encountered the betrayal of the two Zhai Xing Lou Lou Lou Lou Lou, he did not express his intentions. He only asked Fairy Xing Yue to investigate it herself. He had already made his attitude clear in advance. Zhai Xing Lou … had nothing to do with him.
Since Fairy Xing Yue saw that there were some problems with Zhai Xing Lou, she must be able to predict that Zhai Xing Lou would be in chaos in the future. Given this, Fairy Xing Yue might have the intention of entrusting Xiao Hua to him.
Now that Xu Zhi had said this, even if Fairy Xing Yue had such thoughts, they would definitely be dispelled by Xu Zhi's words.
Sure enough, Fairy Xing Yue smiled coldly and said, "It's up to you whether you want to say it or not. The matter between two men has nothing to do with me. I just taught a few more secret techniques of the Immortal World. Who doesn't know how to do it?"
"Teach me if you have the ability!" Xu Zhi retorted sarcastically, as if he was looking for trouble.
Fairy Xing Yue was slightly taken aback. However, after a moment, she smiled and said, "Of course I know how to!
However, that will have to wait until he reaches the Immortal World … "
"Let's go …" Xu Zhi glanced at Fairy Xing Yue, knowing that she was warning him. However, he did not take it seriously and said, "The Star Moon Palace is already close at hand. Aren't you anxious at all?"
"Phew …" Fairy Xing Yue straightened up and stretched. Her slender body was not much different from Xu Zhi's.
Then, Fairy Xing Yue yawned and said lazily, "I was naturally excited the first few times. However, I'm used to disappointment now.
Even though I've made so many preparations for the appearance of the Star Moon Palace, I don't dare have any more extravagant hopes when I think about the possibility of failure! "
Xu Zhi frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you?
With Xiao Hua's help this time, there won't be too much of a problem … "
"Your divination technique?"
Fairy Xing Yue smiled slightly and asked in return, "If there was a well-tested divination technique in this world, would you still be banished to the three continents?
If your divination technique was really useful, would you still need to explore the Star Moon Palace for the ninth time?
In this world, there are many fickle people. There are many feelings of loss and loneliness. Change is the essence of the Heavenly Way. You and I are just … ordinary Immortals. We can't take a peek at the heart of the Heavenly Way! "
Needless to say, Xu Zhi could already sense the deep sense of loss in Fairy Xing Yue's tone. Xiao Hua also understood that Fairy Xing Yue's heart had been hurt by the two traitorous Stargazing Tower Masters. Thus, she had doubts about the entire Star Moon Expedition.
Xu Zhi opened his mouth, wanting to say something. However, when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back down!
This was because Fairy Xing Yue also knew what she should say. Xiao Hua did not need to say more. However, Xiao Hua might not know what Fairy Xing Yue wanted to hear.
Therefore, Xiao Hua glanced at Xu Zhi and said to Fairy Xing Yue with a smile, "Fairy, what are you saying? In the eyes of the tens of thousands of humans and demons who entered the Star Moon Palace, you are the Heavenly Way!
They racked their brains to enter the Star Moon Palace and find their own opportunities inside. However, how could they know?
You were the one who found the Star Moon Palace. The most fundamental mystery of the Star Moon Palace … is the passageway to the Immortal World! "
"Humph, of course!"
Women were the most fickle. Xiao Hua's strong flattery made Fairy Xing Yue's face instantly look better. She rolled her eyes at Xu Zhi and said, "Can't you say something nice?"
PS: I'm glad to hear that Bai Zhibao and Li Tong got married yesterday. I wish the golden couple a hundred years of happiness and a long life together.
