Chapter 92: Talisman Day
In the yin fish of the jade pendant, Zheng Fa could see his modern self. The yang fish remained empty for now—likely, when he returned to the modern world, his appearance from the cultivation realm would occupy that space.
The jade pendant contained more than just this duality. Scattered fragments of images and information were hidden within.
In one vision, a figure soared skyward on a sword, rising to the heavens. The scene shifted to catastrophe—blood rained from the sky, the sun and moon fell, and mountains crumbled. Ghostly wails echoed through the chaos as the world teetered on the edge of collapse.
At the climax of this apocalyptic tableau, a mournful sigh descended from the heavens, and the turmoil ceased. Tranquility returned to the world as the yin-yang jade pendant drifted gently from the sky, sinking into obscurity.
Another vision showed Zheng Fa intertwined with a figure strikingly similar to himself. Their bodies and souls fused slowly, the modern self relinquishing its attachment to life and allowing Zheng Fa’s will to dominate. A single memory lingered in the yin-yang pendant.
Back in his mud-pill palace, the yin-yang fish on the pendant continued to chase each other in endless rotation.
Zheng Fa experimented briefly, realizing he could control the rotation speed and, with it, the intervals between his crossings. At most, he could now remain in the Xuanyi Realm for a month before needing to return to the modern world. However, the reverse wasn’t possible—likely due to the disparity in spiritual energy between the two realms.
The jade pendant’s utility was limited for now. It offered him stability during cultivation retreats, ensuring he wouldn’t be interrupted.
