Chapter 48: The Mysterious Mirror (Part 1)

  Because there were still three days before the competition, Lu Yun and the other four left Tianhuo Cave early to find a place to have fun. On the way, Yun Feng kept making trouble, saying it wasn't fun. Lu Yun couldn't help but ask: "Don't always say it's not fun, how can you make it fun? This is Tiangong Institute, not our Yiyuan, we need to consider others for many things, otherwise, we will get into trouble. This time, our Yiyuan and Tiangong Institute have clashed several times, and we have taken the upper hand, which has already made them very dissatisfied with us. At this time, if you make something happen again, how can Master Shibo explain it later?"

  Lin Yunfeng's face turned red, and he looked away with a smile: "I was just joking, let's go to Feng Huang Academy to find Cang Yue Shijie to play, how about it? Ao Xue Shijie should be very happy, right? Alright, don't say anything else, let's hurry up." After finishing speaking, he rose into the air and quickly shot forward. Lu Yun heard this and a strange light flashed in his eyes, he glanced at Ao Xue and nodded slightly, chasing after Lin Yunfeng.

  Four people arrived at the foot of Feng Huang Academy, where they were greeted by Ao Xue. They soon found Cang Yue, who was accompanied by her junior sister Xu Jie. After exchanging greetings, Lu Yun smiled and said: "The competition is still three days away, why don't we all play together in this area? It's a great way to relax before the tournament. This Taixuan Mountain is majestic and beautiful, with many scenic spots."

  Cang Yue looked at Lu Yun for a moment, then shifted her gaze to Ao Xue's face, watching her quietly. Seeing Ao Xue nod slightly, Cang Yue said calmly, "Alright, it's rare to have this opportunity, so let's just go take a look together." After finishing speaking, she glanced at her junior sister Xu Jie, indicating for her to also come along.

  Beside him, Lin Yunfeng smiled and said: "Let's go, the six of us will take a look around, see if there are any spiritual flowers or herbs in this mountain. Hehe, Brother Li, what do you think?" After finishing speaking, his gaze turned to Li Hongfei who was standing beside him without saying a word. Li Hongfei's gaze lightly moved from Ao Xue back to Lin Yunfeng, and he nodded slightly without opening his mouth.

  Lu Yun glanced at everyone and smiled: "Alright, let's go. Yesterday I took a look from the sky, and the back mountain of this Taixu Mountain is very vast, with countless spiritual springs and strange peaks in between. Today we'll go take a good look around." After finishing speaking, seeing that everyone was somewhat moved, he turned around and led the five people towards the back mountain.

  On the road, six people rode the wind and soon entered the back mountain of Tai Xuan. All around were towering pines and cypresses, green trees shading, flowers blooming everywhere, and fragrance floating like clouds. The serene and secluded beauty deeply attracted the six people. As they walked, they lingered and searched, and before long, they came to a small stream in the mountains. Lu Yun suddenly stopped and said: "Everyone look, this is such a beautiful scenery, if we were to hide here and cultivate quietly, it would be very good. I wonder if everyone has the same feeling?" With a smile, looking around, Lu Yun's eyes sparkled with a few points of brilliance.

  Cang Yue and Ao Xue stopped in their tracks, carefully taking in the scenery before them. Indeed, it was breathtakingly beautiful. The creek water was crystal clear, with countless green trees and exotic flowers surrounding them. Various small birds chirped occasionally, adding a touch of vitality to the serene atmosphere, making this a rare and secluded retreat.

  Looking around, Lin Yunfeng exclaimed loudly: "Ah, how beautiful! If I were to build a three-room thatched hut here, listen to the birds singing in the mountains every day, smell the fragrance of rare flowers, and appreciate the lush greenery, it would be one of life's greatest pleasures. Unfortunately, this is Tai Xuan Mountain, if it were Yi Garden, I would have moved in long ago." After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile.

  Xu Jiao smiled and said: "Looking at your smile with ill intentions, are you thinking of moving this place back? You probably don't have that skill yet." After finishing speaking, her eyes shone with a hint of strange light. Lin Yunfeng smiled and said: "That skill is probably not possessed by anyone in this world, I just thought about it, didn't harbor any malicious intentions, you shouldn't wrong me." After finishing speaking, he chuckled at her.

  Cang Yue glanced at her junior sister, seemingly sensing something vaguely. And Ao Xue also subtly understood something, and couldn't help but smile mysteriously at Cang Yue, with a hint of understanding flashing in both of their eyes.

  Lu Yun gazed quietly at the clear stream, and suddenly a strange light flashed in his eyes, as if he had discovered something. Lu Yun's body glowed with a flash of light, and his figure appeared above the stream, carefully observing the movement in the water. The stream was crystal clear to the bottom, and one could see through it at a glance, but there was nothing. However, Lu Yun had vaguely felt that there was a flash of light here, unfortunately, the time was too short.

  Looking at the water surface, Lu Yun's gaze stayed on the two small fish in the water, one black and one red, both only an inch long, swimming in the water. People say that clear water has no fish, but unexpectedly this small stream still had two small fish, it was really surprising.

  At this time, Yun Feng discovered Lu Yun's abnormality and couldn't help but ask: "Lu Yun, what's wrong? What are you doing there? Is there something strange and interesting that's a lot of fun? Why didn't you call me?" After finishing speaking, his body jumped to Lu Yun's side.

  On the side, everyone who heard Yun Feng's words noticed Lu Yun's abnormality and looked at him strangely. At this time, Yun Feng looked at the water surface and laughed loudly: "You guys come and see, there is a green fish in the water, so big and fat, it's really beautiful! If we catch it to fill our stomachs, it will be even more wonderful, haha." The three women and Li Hongfei smiled calmly upon hearing this and leaned their bodies forward.

  Lu Yun's face changed greatly as soon as he heard Yun Feng's words. He looked carefully at the water, where did the green big fish come from? There were only two small black and red fish. He raised his head to look at Yun Feng, Lu Yun said in a deep voice: "Yun Feng, don't joke around, did you really see a green big fish?"

  Yun Feng was taken aback, looking at Lu Yun and saying: "What? You didn't see that obvious thing? Won't you? Look, it's right there, still swimming around, so beautiful." As he spoke, he pointed to the water's surface with his hand, telling Lu Yun the exact location. Lu Yun looked carefully, but apart from those two strange little fish swimming around, there was nothing else. Lu Yun's eyes widened in shock, and he suddenly fell into deep thought.

  At this time, the three girls and Li Hongfei also came to their side, carefully looking at the fish swimming in the water. Only to hear Xu Jie laugh and scold: "You're good, Lin Yunfeng, you actually dare to cheat us, where is the green big fish? Obviously it's a red big fish."

  Aoyuki was taken aback, with a hint of doubt in her voice: "Really? I could've sworn I saw blue little fish. Cangyue, what color did you see the fish as?"

  Cang Yue's face slightly changed as she said, "What I saw was a three-colored light fish, not big or small." After finishing speaking, she looked at Li Hongfei, waiting to see his result. Li Hongfei glanced at the other few people and softly said, "What I saw was a black large fish, which should be different from yours."

  Lin Yunfeng exclaimed in surprise: "Unbelievable, why is that? Lu Yun, what about you, what color did you see exactly? Tell us quickly, how come everyone sees it differently? This is strange."

  Lu Yun woke up from his contemplation and looked at the crowd, saying: "What I saw were two small fish, one black and one red. This matter is strange, everyone think carefully, why would such a strange thing appear." As soon as he spoke, all five of them were shocked, realizing they had encountered something bizarre.

  As they gazed at the water's surface, all six of them fell into deep contemplation. No one could have anticipated that on such a clear and sunny day, they would encounter something so bizarre - it was truly too mysterious. After a while, Lu Yun's body suddenly rose up, and in an instant, he was suspended in mid-air, carefully observing the surroundings. Meanwhile, Yun Feng let out a low shout: "Yin-yang Wu Xing, Qian Kun Huan Hua, Wan Wu Gui Ben, everything is revealed! Open!" As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly emitted two strange beams of light that shot straight at the water's surface, looking extremely mysterious.

  Just then, Yun Feng suddenly shouted: "Damn it, how come there's nothing at all? I used the yin-yang secret technique to check, but suddenly everything disappeared, and there was only a pool of clear water. There wasn't even a shadow of fish. This is really strange, I'm a ghost-catching expert, could I have encountered a ghost? Damn it, this is weird." The other three women and Li Hongfei all had heavy expressions and eerie eyes.

  In mid-air, Lu Yun's body burst forth with a brilliant red light, and his eyes flickered with a faint seven-colored glow. At this moment, he was using his unique mental wave to probe everything around him. In order to understand the secrets within, Lu Yun sent out twenty-four mental waves in succession. The frequency ranged from 360 times per instant to over 200,000 times per instant, with an astonishing span. Meanwhile, in order to be more meticulous, he expanded the range to cover the entire Tai Xuan back mountain.

  Twenty-four mental waves, spread throughout every corner of the entire Tai Xuan Hou Shan, rapidly analyzing all useful information. All this information instantly formed a web in Lu Yun's mind, carefully depicting the detailed situation of the entire Tai Xuan Hou Shan. Lu Yun quickly deleted useless information, and soon, a detailed distribution map of Tai Xuan Hou Shan appeared in his mind. Carefully searching through the details in his mind, Lu Yun's eyes revealed a hint of shock, because he discovered that there were seven very mysterious places in Tai Xuan Hou Shan, where mental waves couldn't detect anything. The place under his feet was one of them.
