Eternal Life as False Emperor

Chapter 465: Chapter 374: This Woman Has Lost Her Mind

"Fellow Daoist Bai, are you thirsty? I have some fresh spring water from Jade Dragon Spring at Yuntai Mountain."

"Not only is it sweet and refreshing, it can also nourish the spirit root, which is a great benefit for us cultivators."

During the journey, Lin Feng continuously tried to ingratiate himself with Bai Zhirui.

When she was thirsty, he’d bring water. When hungry, he’d offer spirit fruit to Bai Zhirui to fill her stomach.

Each time, Su Yao would subtly interrupt Lin Feng without making a fuss.

Throughout the process, she also kept introducing Bai Zhirui to the Star Sea.

This made Bai Zhirui almost misunderstand, wondering if the other party was trying to recruit her.

"How could that be possible?" Zheng Yi scoffed at his disciple’s idea.

Bai Zhirui’s father is an Elder of the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect.

Although Su Yao is a key disciple of Star Sea’s younger generation, she is still just a disciple.

Inviting Bai Zhirui to join Star Sea would be like an employee of a Fortune Global 500 company trying to recruit the child of another company’s board chairman to join them as a junior employee.

The little schemes between them were naturally not lost on Zheng Yi.

Having engaged in intrigue with various crafty old foxes for so long, observing these three’s blatantly obvious little schemes,

instead gave Zheng Yi the feeling of watching television dramas from the past.

Enjoying the spectacle with a keen interest.

Suddenly, Zheng Yi’s mind trembled intensely.

It was as if something was peering into his soul, trying to see him inside and out.

More precisely, it was not him, but his disciple Bai Zhirui.

"Is this... a divination method?" Zheng Yi found it quite novel, murmuring, "The Canglan Realm is indeed interesting."

These cultivators should have long surpassed the control of the Heavenly Dao,

and most cultivators can, through various means, glimpse into the fate of ordinary people.

But the fate of cultivators using divination is a different story.

Such actions wouldn’t only provoke retaliation from the Heavenly Dao; there’s also a possibility of being countered by more skilled cultivators. For those practicing divination, there are few means of resistance, making it extremely dangerous.

Due to their limited strength, neither Lin Feng nor Su Yao noticed anything unusual.

However, Bai Zhirui couldn’t help but sneeze.

Achoo!

This sneeze attracted two puzzled glances.

As cultivators, though they’re not entirely invulnerable,

ordinary illnesses shouldn’t affect them much.

Feeling their gaze,

a blush appeared on Bai Zhirui’s pretty face, and she frowned slightly, warning, "Someone is using the divination technique to determine our whereabouts."

Lin Feng and Su Yao’s expressions changed dramatically.

Su Yao, incredulous, said, "I am a cultivator after all; who can casually spy on our fates?"

Lin Feng suddenly slapped his forehead, "I remember now, my master once told me, the Nether Spirit Race has a branch called the Wangyue Race. This race is born with three eyes, and their third eye can be cultivated into an innate divine power, allowing them to peer into the three worlds and five elements. Reportedly, they can even glimpse into cultivators’ secrets."

"It’s very likely that an expert from the Wangyue Race is tracking us."

Bai Zhirui could only marvel, "The Nether Spirit Race possesses such terrifying innate divine powers."

Zheng Yi, however, felt a deep sense of embarrassment, the familiarity of it all too intense, reminding him involuntarily of a certain fellow who fought with monkeys.

"Master, what should we do now?" Bai Zhirui, helpless against such methods, hurriedly sought Zheng Yi’s aid.

Zheng Yi also realized some shortcomings of his convenient disciple.

Although she’s excellent in terms of talent and strength, her methods for handling various unforeseen situations are too scarce.

It wasn’t a major problem; with Bai Zhirui’s current cultivation level, many magical techniques were not particularly difficult for her.

"Calm your mind and listen to your master..."

Communication of the mind is incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, Zheng Yi passed on a cultivation technique to Bai Zhirui.

Bai Zhirui, having a photographic memory, just after Zheng Yi finished teaching, had already comprehended most of it.

In the eyes of Lin Feng and Su Yao, Bai Zhirui simply seemed to close her eyes for a brief rest.

When she opened them again, a sudden brilliance erupted in her gaze.

The two immediately felt a sense of exposure, as if they’d been thoroughly seen through.

But this sensation came quickly and left just as swiftly, leading them to think it was merely an illusion.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, what was that?"

"Sister Bai, is something amiss?" Su Yao instinctively looked down at herself.

Her clothes, meticulously selected and freshly changed today, should be fine.

Bai Zhirui shook her head with a smile, "I’m fine. We should leave this place of trouble quickly. Although the enemy can no longer spy on us, our location has probably already been exposed."

Lin Feng formed a spell with his hands, and with a whoosh, a flying sword shot out, growing rapidly in front of the three, and in the blink of an eye, it was the size of a small boat.

Bai Zhirui and Su Yao exchanged a glance, and gracefully leapt onto the flying sword, their clothes fluttering.

Yet intentionally or unintentionally, Su Yao still positioned herself between Lin Feng and Bai Zhirui.

As soon as they’d steadied themselves, Lin Feng eagerly pointed forward, "Go!"

The flying sword transformed into a streak of light, disappearing in the sky in a blink.

A moment later.

The cultivator of the Wangyue Race was desperately exercising his innate divine power, Celestial Eye.

His third eye positioned in the middle of his forehead, surrounded by a faint glow of moonlight, shimmering with the essence of the great dao.

Upon closer inspection, one could see three blurry figures within his third eye.
