Chapter 16 Strange Clouds

"I mean, Brother Yun, oh no, Brother Zhang Quan," Zhang Chi Hang looked at the cloud of mist and said to Zhang Quan with interest, “could you find anything abnormal about it?"

Zhang Quan was also squinting his eyes as he looked at the cloud, and laughed out after a while, "no wonder those experts could not handle it. Interesting. Liu Shuai, you guys come over and take a look as well."

Liu Shuai and I didn't have a good vision, so we walked over, and only when we were closed did we admire Zhang Chi Hang's mana. Although made up of glass dust and water, black clouds rolled about, and the plane was extremely vivid. I couldn't help but to praise, "Mr. Zhang Chi Hang, this is awesome. You creation is similar to hologram. How could you —"

"Don't talk bullshit," Zhang Chi Hang smiled slightly, then said, "do you think you're doing crosstalk, and even bringing along a joke? Be quick, take a good look. Mr Wang's sun will be dead in a moment!"

So it turned out that even the Avalokitesvara couldn't resist flattery. I chuckled to myself as I looked carefully at the clouds. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. It was obvious that the plane had broken into the storm. There were some suspicious points, however. Even though I had never seen real storm clouds in the sky, I still felt that there was something strange about this one. The strange thing seemed familiar. The lightning flashed in the rain from time to time, but it was not the light in my imagination. It was slightly yellowish, so did the dark clouds as I watched carefully. The reason I didn't notice it before was because I thought that it was a characteristic of Zhang Chi Hang's mana. However, there wasn't any yellow light on the plane at all. I looked at Liu Shuai, who had obviously noticed this as well and started pondering.

A bolt of lightning struck down and a yellow light illuminated my memories. I suddenly remembered the night with Yan.

"Immortal Tying Rope!" Liu Shuai and I said in unison.

That’s it. That night, when Yan was trapped by the Immortal Tying Rope, his body was also glowing with the same yellow light. The light was so peculiar that it left a deep impression on me. Even so, if it wasn't for Zhang Chi Hang's reminder, I wouldn't have noticed it, since the yellow light was indistinct. After all, it was a magic weapon that even tricked Yan.

“Nice scheme, very considerate!” I shook my head, and imitated Yan's actions that night, "whoever acts to save the people of Wang’s Family will definitely be trapped by the Immortal Tying Rope, and that is what we experienced that night. In that case, is Lan Ruo also in the cloud? Whatever Hag is there too, right? It's no wonder those experts hired by director Wang you mentioned earlier did not dare to make a move. "

"Hahahaha, you think too high of director Wang." Zhang Chi Hang laughed and turned to Zhang Quan whose eyes were also filled with laughter, "the experts by his side are merely able to play tricks on snakes, perform some magic, or send a piece of mountain rock for a living. What else can they do? Let alone the presence of Immortal Tying Rope, even without it, they would not dare to use their primordial spirit to save people in a thunderstorm. "

“Exactly," Zhang Quan replied. For some reason, after coming across this situation, Zhang Quan's mind suddenly lit up, "although I do not know who the director Wang is, but it is clear that he has a good differentiation. He knows that those people who sing praises are useless, so he directly called you. However, the price is you ask is really …"

"Humph!" Zhang Chi Hang sneered, but his eyes did not leave the clouds, "this is a matter of mankind. We better not take much responsibility for it. Is one billion too much? I was going to tell him to keep one billion for himself and leave the rest to me. If it isn't for the fact that the his nationwide Fengshui layout is a scheme by a descendant of the Wen’s family, and I have to give some space to the younger generation to prevent the Wang’s family from having no more successors, I wouldn't even bother to care about their family matters."

"Even so, isn’t it also because that there is a monster hurting people?" Zhang Quan laughed out loud, "Back in the days, you were the one who loved to meddle in other people's business the most. You inspired monk Xuanzang in the East, and saved the White Snake in the Heavon, but I never thought that you would even be able to take on the job of a mortal’s birth-giving. Those who know you understand that you are merciful and generous, while those who don’t would think that you lack incense and would rob a midwife's business …"

“—Sorry, the two of you, this plane won’t hold up much longer." Liu Shuai stared at the plane in the rain. It looked like it was made of paper, so he couldn't help but remind them.

"Brother Zhang Quan, I wonder how much research you have done on those divine tools after the previous Immortal Granting Ceremony?" Zhang Chi Hang did not bother with Liu Shuai, but directly asked Zhang Quan.

Zhang Quan was startled for a moment, "there are lots of divine tools during the Immortal Granting Age, and I am interested in studying a few of them. I have been trying to create a few of them over the years. Though my efforts were futile the most times, I did produce some items successfully." He began to count as he spoke, “there are some nice ones, like the just usable Yin Yang Mirror, Nine Dragons Divine Flame Mantle, Rainbow Lock, Immortal Slaying Daggers, and so on. I wonder which one Brother Zhang is asking about?"

"What..." I had only seen these divine equipments in TV dramas and novels, but I didn't expect that the person in front of me would actually create all of those famous magical weapons of deities on himself. I couldn't help but look at Liu Shuai, who was dumbstruck. I asked him in a low voice, "does your master have so many good things? You never told me about it. "

"I don't know! He never told me as well! " Liu Shuai lowered his voice, but was also heard by Zhang Quan. Zhang Quan's face flushed, and pretended to have not heard him. Seeing Liu Shuai did not notice this detail, I continued to speak on my own, "the cultivation methods he taught me in my dreams are also intermittent, and on occasion, I thought it was just a dream at first, but later on I learned the broken cultivation method that he taught me, and unexpectedly, it is very helpful. As for the treasures, I've never seen them before, while I never imagined that he would be so stingy with so many good things."

Zhang Quan wanted to say something. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Zhang Chi Hang ignored us two juniors muttering and continued to ask Zhang Quan, "Brother Zhang Quan, the power of those treasures are too great, the use of them today will definitely affect the mortals in the plain within the cloud layer. They will be greatly shocked, and if there is anyone who takes a photo and leave behind evidence, I can erase the divine traces and eliminate the cause and effect, but it will take some time. Mortals are afraid of effect, while Bodhisattvas are afraid of the cause. Later I will perform a Traceless Technique, but I am afraid that the Immortal Tying Rope would be bothered. If something happens like that back in the years, then the divine tools of Cao and Bao— ”

"Falling Treasure Coin!" Zhang Quan was enlightened. He lowered his head and thought, and then his eyes lit up, "Brother Zhang is right, this method will work. I happen to bring along two raw materials, and they can be used to create Falling Treasure Coin quickly. It should not be a problem to suppress the Immortal Tying Rope."

"Raw materials?" I curiously asked, "I've never heard of a powerful person carrying not divine tools but raw materials. Could it be that divine tools can be made in use? Nor did I never hear of Jiang Ziya saying to the enemy, 'Just wait, let me make a Immortal Punching Whip first'. This guy is truly a weirdo. "

"Alright!" Before I could ever understand, Zhang Chi Hang bellowed out loud. With a wave of his hand, a cup that was not broken in corner of the table flew straight up to the edge of the clouds and started to spin. At that moment, Zhang Chi Hang held two fingers together, and with a light shake, a willow branch flew out from the potted landscape & bonsai's humidifier to his hands. Then we were dazzled, as if there were thousands of hands with eyes on them extending from Zhang Chi Hang’s body. Each of these hands was holding a willow branch. As we were standing opposite of Zhang Chi Hang, this image was extremely spectacular, like a peacock spreading its tail, which was very beautiful. The shadow disappeared in a blink of an eye, and Zhang Chi Hang still had the willow branch in his left hand.
