Chapter 1004: A Sneak Attack (III)
Good talisman, thought Li Xizhi.
The talisman Chi Zhihu had taken out was extraordinary. It had a pale blue-and-white base, with gold paint forming the script. Its grade, symbols, and incantation were unknown, making it impossible to use.
Li Xizhi did not give it another glance. Forming a spell art with his hands, he raised his thumb, tapped two fingers in succession, then shifted into a two-finger transformation seal. First, he pointed at the northern falling clouds, then at Xia Mountain in the east. Three gleams of radiance. emerald green, earthy brown, and profound gold, rose from his fingertips.
The three could hardly stand by and watch him cast spells. Chi Zhihu immediately raised his hand, and a gleaming white, needle-shaped dharma artifact appeared in his palm. Mana flowed and gathered into it, yet he did not know which target to strike.
Wu Weibai was at a loss for words, his heart stifled with frustration, Back then, when I told you to diligently train in understanding the properties of spell arts, you dozed off day after day, only wanting to practice arts of great destructive power... Now you’re getting your retribution!
By rights, a dharma artifact used for this kind of scan should not only be able to pierce Li Xizhi’s whereabouts but also distinguish between these illusionary clones. Yet of all things, Chi Zhihu had to bring a Bright Yang heavenly light dharma artifact, the Clear Serenity Mirror!
There were many spell arts capable of producing illusionary clones, but when using a dharma artifact to examine them, heavenly light and Heavenly Glow types were mutually obscured and could not see through each other.
If only you’d brought the Glimmering Inquiry Mirror or the Taiyu Sword... there’d be no need to waste time dealing with these clones!
Wu Weibai silently grumbled to himself, unaware that Chi Zhihu, though keeping a calm expression as the radiant mirror floated above his head, was inwardly cursing his luck. However much of a wastrel he was, he was still at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm now. How could such an oversight happen?
Chi Zhihu thought, Ning Hejing borrowed the Glimmering Inquiry Mirror, and the Taiyu Sword was taken by the Lingu Family to the Southern Sea for demon-slaying... The Clear Serenity Mirror is better than having nothing at all!
