Chapter 117: Imitate, not Surpass!
It took less than 20 minutes for Jumeng to fully explain the texts to Lu Yibei, and she wrote it all down in English for him to understand.
He couldnt help but sighgods are truly different beings.
Using a magical brush, the beautiful brushwork occupied more than half a page, but Jumeng stopped, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Theres nothing useful in the first half, and I didnt bother writing down the second half.
Huh? Why not?
Too many words. Troublesome.
I could, you know, just tell you. Come.
Pointing at the paper, she spoke, This is the final entry; they did find a god in the mountains, but they all felt that something was wrong with their god.
[Many of the men felt the gods presence, but they couldnt describe its appearance. I felt it too. We are finally at the mountain, but something tells me that we wont be able to leave. I dont know if we were the ones who found it or if it found us.]
Hearing this, he frowned. He could vaguely feel the anxiety and hopelessness of the person who wrote the diary.
Perhaps the god they met was the culprit that triggered a series of events that happened around Professor Ma.
Theres no more useful content in what you gave me, Jumeng interrupted. Didnt you say that there was more that you didnt write down?
Listening to the discussion between Lu Yibei and Jumeng, all of the apparitions in the apartment huddled in a corner of the room and whispered amongst themselves.
Trapping and driving humans into madnessisnt that how some high-level urban legends hunt? Could you even call them gods?
Arent gods just high-level urban legends? Those ancient humans were probably eaten or became the gods servants.
Are they preparing to hunt the god? Forget it. We just watch.
Yibei could hear their conversations and then looked back at Jumeng.
Why are you looking at me like that? I am different! she defended. I dont hunt or trap mortals to become my believers.
Right.
Forget it. Theres no point in explaining the logistics of this to a human. If you have the opportunity to come to my domain, you will know how highly respected I am!
The girls fluent chanting could make any class fall asleep.
She could feel her psychic energy converging at her fingertips, and with a soft exaltation of force, a tiny pillar of flame was conjured on her palm for a few seconds before dissipating.
I I did it! I successfully recited my first mantra!
Meanwhile, Lu Yibei was speechless.
Shes practising mantras in MY dream?
Since she decided to do something like this under her nose, its only right to learn the spells that she was learning, right? An eye for an eye!
Sixian began to practise the incantation again, and Yibei closely followed every single word and every single movement she made.
Desolate wilderness; straw, bones
Desolate wilderness; straw, bones
Halfway through the recitation, something stirred within Yibei and took over her.
Fan a fire, burn the rhinoceros, and shine like a fiery disaster.
As soon as her words fell, the air around her body vibrated violently, and psychic energy quickly gathered at her fingertips, condensing into a little scarlet light.
After a brief silence, the light spread, and a deafening bang echoed through the city.
Boom!
Red flames bloomed at Lu Yibeis fingertips like roses; terrifying heat swept through the air, and the air was burnt. White steam burst from the surroundings from the intense heat.
The firelight reflected a bright red on her cheeks, and in a trance, the girl overlooked Du Sixian condescendingly with a playful smile on her mouth.
Soon, the smile on her face faded, and exhaustion hit her like a tide. She regained control of her body, and her smile forced itself back into her usual stiffness.
W-what the hell?
Noticing Sixians gaze in her direction, she quickly squatted down and placed herself under the guardrail of the rooftop.
Sixian is a member of the Night Division now, and if she sees me
Meanwhile, on the dilapidated streets below, Sixian raised her eyes to look at the building that seemed to stretch into the clouds.
