Chapter 2196

Half a day later, Yang Kai returned to Flying Swallow Peak from Wen Zishan’s side.

During this half day, Wen Zishan carefully explained the mysteries of the Divine Soul Mirror to Yang Kai. The more Yang Kai learned about the Divine Soul Mirror, the more he was shocked that such a strange treasure could be born in this world and such a mysterious space could exist.

What Wen Zishan said was right. As long as one could enter the Divine Soul Mirror and come out alive, the improvement for any martial artist would be enormous. This kind of improvement was not just in terms of pure strength, but also in the foundation of the whole person and the improvement of comprehensive ability, which was of great significance to any martial artist.

And by now, he finally understood why Gao Xueting had suddenly come to look for him a few days ago and gave him a “Purple Yang Mysterious Light Shield” before leaving. Either she had predicted this matter long ago or she was making preparations in advance, so she deliberately gave him a secret treasure for soul defense, in order to give Yang Kai an extra layer of security guarantee after entering the Divine Soul Mirror.

Thinking of this, Yang Kai’s heart skipped a beat. After thinking for a while, he showed a bitter smile on his face and murmured in a low voice, “Ginger is still old and spicy！”

The reason why he said this was because he had figured out one thing – that his entry into the Divine Soul Mirror had probably been discussed by Wen Zishan and the others more than ten days ago.

But today, this Hall Master Wen deliberately made things difficult and vaguely pointed out several times in his words that the rewards obtained by Xia Sheng and the others were different from Yang Kai’s, in order to entice Yang Kai to use the promise he had made before.

In other words, even if Yang Kai did not use the promise that Wen Zishan had promised him a not-too-excessive request, he should also be able to enter the Divine Soul Mirror.

Now that things have come to this, it’s useless to regret. Yang Kai felt that he should actually be grateful to Wen Zishan. She had opened up the great secret of the Qingyang Divine Palace to an outsider like him, giving him the opportunity to enter the Divine Soul Mirror. So what if that promise was used up？

He would enter the Divine Soul Mirror tomorrow, so after returning to Flying Swallow Peak, Yang Kai wasn’t in a hurry to refine the Violet Sun Mysterious Light Shield anymore. Because in just half a day, no matter how much he refined it, there wouldn’t be much effect.

He just sat cross-legged and meditated, adjusting his own state to the best.

The next day. In the early morning, Yang Kai opened his eyes, and the divine light in his eyes shone brightly, clearly indicating that he had rested well.

Immediately. He set off and headed in a certain direction deep within the Qingyang Mountains.

About half an hour later, at the foot of a tall peak, Yang Kai landed.

On the open ground over there, there were already four figures standing. Yang Kai took a glance and immediately discovered that the four people were actually Xia Sheng, Xiao Baiyi, and the others. Murong Xiaoxiao and Shen Mujji were also among them.

“Ha, I knew it. Brother Yang will definitely come too.” As soon as Xia Sheng saw Yang Kai, he looked over with a big laugh.

Xiao Baiyi’s eyes revealed a shocked expression. Because he thought that since the Divine Soul Mirror was related to the secrets of the sect, even if Yang Kai, an outsider, had made great contributions, it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to enter. He never expected that his own Palace Master would be so generous.

“Junior Brother Yang！” Mu Rong Xiaoxiao gave Yang Kai a bright smile and nodded in greeting.

“Brother Yang！” Shen Muji also slightly cupped his fists. Although he and Yang Kai were not yet familiar, they had at least said a few words. Moreover, this time everyone was going to enter the Divine Wander Mirror, and they all had to support and assist each other. There was naturally no problem in getting a good relationship in advance.

Yang Kai also cupped his fists in response, greeted everyone one by one, and exchanged a few pleasantries with them before changing the topic and saying, “Are only a few of us going in this time？ Isn’t there any elder leading the team？”

Xia Sheng smiled and said, “Naturally there is. It is said that there are not a few dangers in the Divine Wander Mirror. The Divine Temple is also not at ease with us Dao Source Realm cultivators entering alone. An elder of the Emperor Respect Realm should be sent to assist.”

“I just don’t know who it is.” Shen Muji smiled.

Xia Sheng’s face darkened and he muttered, “Please don’t be Elder Gao…”

Last time when going to the Four Seasons Land, on the way there and back, he was thrown off the airship by Gao Xueting and had quite a bit of fear towards Gao Xueting.

After saying that, Xia Sheng turned his head suspiciously and looked at Mu Rong Xiaoxiao, and said with a puzzled expression, “Xiaoxiao, didn’t you rest well last night？ Why are your eyelids twitching randomly？”

“No…” Mu Rong Xiaoxiao replied in a low voice, with a anxious expression on her face.

“Hmph！” Xiao Baiyi snorted coldly and turned his gaze elsewhere. Shen Mujī and Yang Kai one looked up at the sky and the other lowered his head to look at the ground…

Xia Sheng suddenly seemed to understand something and couldn’t help but shiver all over.

From behind, a coolness hit. It was as if a peerless demon god was standing behind him. The tall figure blocked the sky and the earth, making Xia Sheng feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

“Haha…” He suddenly gave a dry laugh. “What was I just saying…”

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp pain came from his head. It seemed as if someone had hit him hard, and then his whole body fell to the ground, lying there in a big character shape, not moving at all…

“All follow this palace！” Gao Xueting said lightly and turned around to fly upwards.

“Yes！” Several people responded and closely followed behind Gao Xueting.

Before leaving, Murong Xiaoxiao still looked at Xia Sheng with great sympathy, but didn’t have the courage to pull him up and could only silently pray for her senior brother in her heart.

Along the way, Gao Xueting didn’t say a word, making several disciples feel a great deal of pressure. For some reason, when getting along with Gao Xueting, all the disciples couldn’t help but become serious, as if they were intimidated by her cold aura.

Soon, everyone arrived at the top of the peak.

And on this mountaintop, there is a cliff facing the abyss, flat and smooth.

Gao Xueting stopped in the air just like that in front of the cliff.

Yang Kai and the others stood about three zhang away from Gao Xueting and all curiously looked around this place.

It is understandable that Yang Kai is curious because he is not a disciple of Qingyang Temple and is extremely unfamiliar with everything here. But it is different for Xiao Baiyi and the others. Although they have lived in Qingyang Temple for many years, have been seeking teachers and learning skills here, and have passed by here many times, they have never paid much attention to this place. They only thought that this was an ordinary mountain peak. Unexpectedly, there is a huge secret hidden here.

“After going in later, don’t look at what you shouldn’t look at and don’t say what you shouldn’t say…” Gao Xueting suddenly seriously admonished, “Especially you！”

When she said the last sentence, her stern gaze had already been directed to Xia Sheng who was hiding behind Mu Rongxiao.

I don’t know when he caught up…

“The disciple will become dumb right now！” As soon as Xia Sheng heard this, he immediately reached out and made a swipe on his mouth, as if sewing his mouth with invisible needles and threads.

Gao Xueting then turned her head, faced the flat cliff, and shouted delicately： “Is Granny You here? Xueting is ordered by the Sect Master to bring several disciples into the Divine Travel Mirror. Please Granny open the restriction！”

Her tone was extremely polite. Even when facing Wen Zishan and Qiu Ran, she had never been this polite.

It was okay for Wen Zishan. Gao Xueting seemed to have been brought up by Wen Zishan. The two had an extremely close relationship. Moreover, Wen Zishan often did and said things that made Gao Xueting angry. Naturally, she didn’t get Gao Xueting’s respect. But Qiu Ran, as the vice hall master of the Qingyang Divine Temple and with the cultivation of the Second-Order Emperor Realm, had never received such polite treatment from Gao Xueting either.

Moreover… Yang Kai has a vague sense that in addition to being polite there was also a hint of caution and nervousness in Gao Xueting’s expression.

Coupled with her self-proclaimed address, as if she was a junior, Yang Kai immediately guessed that this Granny You who guarded the forbidden area should be an old antique-level figure, and her temper should be extremely bad！

This speculation made Yang Kai slightly surprised because he didn’t expect that there would be such a person in the Qingyang Divine Temple.

After Gao Xueting shouted out the words, she had been waiting.

It was only after half a stick of incense time that a flash of radiance suddenly appeared on the cliff in front of them. Immediately after that, the cliff was originally originally empty actually had a cave appear.

Seeing this, Gao Xueting whispered to everyone, “Follow closely！”

Then her figure flickered and she rushed towards the cave. The others followed closely behind.

After entering the cave, a cold and gloomy atmosphere immediately enveloped everyone. Even though the person with the lowest strength present was at the Daoyuan Realm, they couldn’t help but shiver all over and get goosebumps all over their bodies.

The cave was quiet and secluded, with weak light. Gao Xueting led the way in front, and the others followed closely behind, taking deep and shallow steps.

No one spoke, and even the sound of breathing was suppressed to the extreme by each person. Only the faint sound of heartbeats continued to ring out, adding to this strange atmosphere.

The road in the cave was full of twists and turns, going around and around. Gao Xueting led everyone and seemed to be walking continuously towards the center of the mountain.

After walking for a long time, a little light suddenly appeared in front.

A moment later, everyone directly arrived in a spacious and huge karst cave.

Looking around, the karst cave was clean and monotonous, and there wasn’t much in it. And in the very center, a thing that was about the size of a tabletop, shining with colorful light and looking like a mirror, stood there.

Everyone’s expressions couldn’t help but tremble, and they immediately understood that that was the rumored Divine Travel Mirror. Each of them looked over there, wanting to see it clearly.

But when everyone’s gaze was cast over, they discovered that the Divine Wanderer Mirror was extremely mysterious. The originally flat mirror surface suddenly transformed into a huge vortex, emitting an unimaginable attractive force. Immediately after, everyone’s sea of consciousness tumbled and their souls were restless, as if their souls were about to be sucked away.

In great shock, everyone quickly averted their gaze, and no one dared to pay attention to that strange existence anymore. Everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

“Young people always have to suffer a loss to know how small they are. Humph！”

Suddenly, a harsh voice sounded, echoing in this spacious cave making people feel as if their hearts were being scratched by a hundred claws and they were extremely uncomfortable all over.

If one really had to describe it, that voice was like the sound made when two pieces of iron were rubbed together vigorously… Yang Kai and the others felt a shiver down their spines after hearing it.

And with the sound of the voice, a figure appeared strangely in front of everyone’s eyes.

No one noticed when she actually appeared. It seemed that even Gao Xueting, at the moment this person appeared, the source force in her body subconsciously surged for a moment, but it was quickly restrained.
