Chapter 126: No Higher Order in the World

Shen Lian’s tone was calm, yet it sipped with an attitude of coldness.

“Why are you wasting time talking to him, Senior Apprentice-Sister?” The lady in white did not seem to be happy with Shen Lian’s reply, and with her fair-skinned hand, she swung it across a gush of wind towards Shen Lian…

It was an almost transparent chilly flow of air, which formed a transparent palm, landed on Shen Lian’s chest, apparently melted into it and vanished, as if it was swallowed by an invisible black hole. Shen Lian let out a cold laugh and countered with a similar palm-shaped chilly current, but with double its magnitude of force.

This was not “an eye for an eye” anymore, more like “replying a slap with a heavy punch”.

The lady in yellow robe wore a stern expression. Her Junior Apprentice-Sister was too impulsive, but this man was never to be dealt with lightly. She had no choice but to wave her yellow flag, which shot a layer of yellow light and shielded the front of the ark. The large transparent chilly palm force hit and sunk into the yellow ray formed a thin layer of ice and covered in the yellow ray. Almost immediately, a bolt of lightning appeared and cut through the frozen ray, shattering it almost immediately…

Following this, Shen Lian’s body was emitting eight colors of red, orange, yellow, white, green, blue, purple and black, which appeared to be rotating like a forceful tornado, and shot towards the ark. At the same time, two rays of white and green emerged from the ark, fused together and hit on Shen Lian.

Even though his opponent was equipped with powerful force, she was still no match against Shen Lian’s Taixu Strategy. Shen Lian had to watch over Ruoxi on the ark, hence he did not go full force.

The Shield of Green and White Rays, when fused, became impenetrable. However the canoe could not withstand its large force, it got chuted in an explosive reverse. Shen Lian did not stay still in the air and pursued it, yet suddenly, a gust of grey air, wrapped and trapped Shen Lian in it.

His body was extremely restless, yet the grey air current acted like a super tensile rope and kept Shen Lian in a tight bound. The wind had stopped, all movements became still, fire was extinguished by water. There was no way up nor down, Shen Lian was helpless.

Subsequently, the reversing ark rose up in a silver ray like a drifting comet.

Shen Lian got trapped in this greyish air current, with his Taixu Strategy rapidly diminished, he could not get out of this grey entrapment.

It was only after the ark entered a flashing black hole, the grey current loosen its grip, flowed and disappeared in thin air.

Shen Lian descended and landed on a mountaintop, witnessed clearly as the grey air current turned into a strand of rope surrounded by rays of light.

That was not a normal instrument. It could even be more precious than those possessed by the immortal Zhenren.

With a source like Qing Xuan, Shen Lian had only seen two pieces of instruments, one being Chief Zhang Ruoxu’s Tiandi Jian, and those unknown bells possessed by Ziling fairy.

Zhang Ruoxu was the chief of Qing Xuan, therefore he obviously possessed the Tiandi Jian, whereas the founding master of Ziling was part of the land immortals, it would not hurt to possess a piece of instrument, one would have known that a being in possession of these instruments would be extra powerful.

For Shen Lian with his current powers, he might not be a match for Chen Jianmei, but any normal Huandan cultivator would not have given him a fight. The potential of Taixu Divine Qi was truly boundless, it was up until that moment that he realized why Gu Caiwei would say that it was the number one skills in the world.

The ark entered the black hole and reappeared in a spot several thousand miles away.

The lady in yellow said, “Junior Apprentice-Sister Ziyue, you are the most knowledgeable person here, do you recognize who that man was?”

The lady in purple robe replied lightly, “Senior Apprentice-Sister, that man’s Dao techniques could easily dissipate Liusu’s Palm of Triple Yin, and he even countered with the exact same technique. Even more, he was glowing in eight colors of red, orange, yellow, white, green, blue, purple and black, it is very likely that it was the Taixu Strategy”.

The lady in yellow muttered deeply. She already had a guess in mind, and it was confirmed after enquiring with the knowledgeable Ziyue. She continued, “That has to be Taixu Strategy, else that man would not be so ruthless. We were lucky to have brought this Fairy Binding Rope, or else we would be in trouble today”.

Lady in white asked, “What is this Taixu Strategy that I have not heard of before?”

“This is the secret technique of the Qing Xuan, known as the hardest technique to master. Don’t you see how ruthless that man was, Liusu, in fact, he had not completely mastered the technique yet, or else I don’t think we could even defend his first hit,” the lady in yellow sighed.

Liusu, the lady in white, was stunned, this Shen Lian obviously had some spiritual consciousness before, and his mana was already so strong. She thought that this man would have reached the Seventh Huandan, never could she imagine that he had not even practiced yet. However, her Senior Apprentice-Sister was usually reliable, she could not be mistaken.

Liusu had no idea that Ziyue said it was most likely the Taixu Strategy, in fact, eight out of ten would be recognizing it. This Taixu strategy, was not only difficult to master, just learning it would already be harder than mastering the cultivation skills of a Seventh-stage Huandan cultivator. In terms of Huandan, a simple use of its technique would have overcome most other techniques in the world, one could even be fearless in face of group attacks, and this could be considered the best cultivator after the level of immortality. After Huandan, there were the realms of Buxu, Powang, which seemed to happen naturally for a cultivator who achieved the level of Seventh-level Huandan.

Ziyue said, “Since that Daoist could have mastered the Taixu Strategy, his must be a man of high status in the Qing Xuan clan. Our Taisu clan may be a notch above the Qing Xuan in the recent years, it is still not wise to engage him in a life and death fight. If he really knew where we are from, I do not think he would dare to come alone, and if he brought his seniors, we have our elders in Taisu as well. Whether this man is related to Yuan Jun in reincarnation, we should just return and report to the Hall Master.”

The lady in yellow nodded in approval, and Liu followed suit.

There was Ruoxi who was sleepless and had no idea she was taken away.

The ark cruised steadily, and half a day later, a ray of grey light approached from the edge of the sky, that was the Fairy Binding Rope.

The Fairy Binding Rope fell on to the hands of the lady in yellow. Earlier, they exposed the dimensions using the mystical powers of the flying ark, which exhausted a fair amount of its own powers.

Now that they have gotten rid of Shen Lian, they could cruise back slowly.

The Fairy Binding Rope was a mystical instrument which recognized its master. The ladies could rely on its own powers to function independently, though not comparable to the level when it was held by its master, it was enough to hold up a cultivator below that of the seventh level of Huandan.

This mystical instrument recognized the Taixu aura emitted from Shen Lian and knew this aura belonged to the Ziling fairy, which was why it did not go for the kill, it only stalled for the three ladies to retreat, and left without further entanglements with Shen Lian.

On the other hand, Shen Lian descended on a hilltop, yet he could not recognize the origins of those ladies. At first, he initiated the Blood Talisman technique, which had no effect, possibly due to the long distance. As soon as his Taixu aura was restored, he started a divination, and it returned with no result.

Lack of result in divination was an unexplainable outcome, which meant that the future was unpredictable, full of parameters. These scenarios would mostly happen when his premonitions were out of the spectrum of his abilities or involved those who could disrupt the courses of destiny.

In fact, Shen Lian had not done the divination on Ruoxi before, therefore he was not sure whether this result was due to her unclear origins, or there was someone disrupting the courses of destiny.
