Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 347: Smack on the Face, Xiaotian is Shocked
The thief must be behind this, Yun Zhongzi thought bitterly.
With a step, he was ready to recklessly enter, regardless of who was behind this secret chamber, he would not spare them!
But at this moment, Xiaotian Dog was leaning against the back of the stone platform, and if he were human, one could say he was sweating like rain by now.
He didn’t want to die, he, Xiaotian Dog, had just broken through to become a True Immortal and activated his bloodline.
The future was boundless, and there was so much more beauty waiting for him in this world!
Xiaotian Dog was desperately thinking of ways to save his life, the only thing he didn’t do was beg for mercy, as he did not believe that Yun Zhongzi would spare him.
But all these schemes seemed too feeble in the face of absolute power.
Just as Xiaotian Dog’s heart was sinking into despair, he suddenly thought of something, and his dog face turned from deep sorrow to great joy.
Right, how could he have forgotten the Divine Skill he acquired from Shopkeeper Chen!
Like grasping at the final straw to save his life, Xiaotian Dog hurriedly executed his second Divine Skill.
Shadow Hide!
The dog remained motionless.
Yun Zhongzi nearly stepped in entirely; it was the last second!
The Divine Skill took effect!
"Which audacious thief dares to intrude upon my abode?! Now, surrender your..."
Yun Zhongzi had begun speaking as half his body entered, but as he fully entered, he abruptly stopped, his face a picture of confusion, no one?!
Yun Zhongzi looked around, seeing the entire secret chamber empty, and then turned his gaze to the stone platform in the center—the Seal of Heaven was still there.
"Hiding, are you?" Yun Zhongzi snorted coldly, and with a reverse hand movement, he closed the entire secret chamber with a new Array, feeling slightly, he couldn’t sense any trace of presence.
Yun Zhongzi nodded in secret approval; indeed, this was someone capable of stealing from him, quite a few tricks up their sleeve!
But Yun Zhongzi’s eyes shone with a startling light, thinking that these petty tricks could avoid his detection was simply wishful thinking!
From the moment Yun Zhongzi entered, Xiaotian Dog, who had already escaped into an Invisible State leaning against the stone platform, didn’t dare to even breathe, holding himself completely still.
Yun Zhongzi pulled out a mirror, which the Immortals who regularly attended court in the Heavenly Court would recognize at a glance—it was identical to the Haotian Mirror of the Jade Emperor, Haotian.
A replica of the Haotian Mirror!
Yun Zhongzi, as a famously renowned Master of Artifact Refinement in the Three Realms, had crafted countless Magical Treasures.
Most artifact refiners would attempt to replicate the renowned treasures of the Three Realms, but usually, they would only be a shell of the original.
However, Yun Zhongzi’s replicas were famed for their high quality, and some were even comparable to the original treasures.
Although this replica of the Haotian Mirror was slightly inferior in quality, its ability to see through illusions and detect true forms was still very much intact.
Thinking of escaping his sight through invisibility or transformation? Not even possible!
Yun Zhongzi, holding the replica Haotian Mirror, infused it with Mana, and in an instant, the mirror burst into white light, shining as if it were a glowing eye.
Starting from the doorway, Yun Zhongzi slowly and meticulously began scanning with the mirror, not allowing a single slip in his search.
With countless Art of Transformation techniques in this world, if the target had turned into something minute and unseen, overlooking it would mean letting them escape.
Yun Zhongzi knew that in such a situation, one needed to have even more patience, or else a moment of carelessness could be maddeningly frustrating.
Scanning... and scanning, Yun Zhongzi had swept the Haotian Scripture over most of the area.
Tap tap!
Xiaotian Dog listened to the footsteps that grew increasingly closer, holding his breath in fright, and then Yun Zhongzi’s figure came into view. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
That white-robed figure, with a white beard and holding the replica Haotian Mirror, loomed in Xiaotian’s eyes like a demonic ghost coming to claim a life.
Hiss! After searching for a while longer, Yun Zhongzi inhaled sharply, somewhat in disbelief.
He had basically finished scanning the area; how could there be nothing?
Suddenly, he turned around, and his gaze met Xiaotian Dog’s in a four-eyed confrontation, startling Xiaotian Dog so much that he almost howled.
Fortunately, reason took a slight upper hand, and Xiaotian Dog kept his mouth tightly shut, his teeth chattering.
He can’t see me, he can’t see me, he can’t see me!
Xiaotian Dog was praying inwardly, hoping the divine skills he acquired from Shopkeeper Chen would work!
Life or death, it all depended on this moment!
Step by step, Yun Zhongzi advanced, each step seemingly crushing down on Xiaotian Dog’s heart!
It’s over, it’s over, I’ve been discovered!
Xiaotian Dog was just about to force a greeting with a moved mouth.
After all, he was a dog raised by Yang Jian; they shouldn’t overlook his master’s face for the sake of the monk, he ought to have a chance to live!
However, Yun Zhongzi’s footsteps stopped suddenly, a mere inch away from Xiaotian Dog’s tail.
Yun Zhongzi frowned deeply, his gaze fixed intensely on the Seal of Heaven on the stone platform, how could this be, there was nothing?!
Could it be, they have stolen something and fled again?
With that thought, Yun Zhongzi’s heart tightened, and he hurriedly picked up the Seal of Heaven from the stone platform, feeling it for a moment, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, it was still his own, not swapped out; this was a treasure he had carefully chosen.
The genuine Seal of Heaven was a Spiritual Treasure crafted by the Primordial Saint using half of Mount Buzhou, immensely powerful.
Once bonded to a master, it could be retrieved at will, but if an ordinary person wished to take it, they would need to consider the weight of half Mount Buzhou.
Although his was of Mortal Grade, without the strength to move mountains and carry peaks, no one should even think of moving it an inch, which is why he had chosen this to prevent it from being casually taken away.
After storing the Seal of Heaven safely, Yun Zhongzi, not convinced, set up several formations in succession, but still came up empty.
"They actually managed to escape again!" Yun Zhongzi shouted angrily, the discipline of this matter was now nowhere to be found.
With a sweep of his hand, he smashed the stone platform into dust.
Xiaotian Dog, who was sitting against the platform, felt a void at his back and nearly collapsed to the ground.
Luckily, he reacted in time, tensing his abdomen to steady himself.
Holy sh*t! That scared the hell out of me!
Xiaotian Dog’s fur bristled, not daring to make the slightest movement, firstly because any motion would reveal his presence, and secondly because Yun Zhongzi was right beside him, where a mere step forward might kick him.
Yun Zhongzi’s startling actions were truly a test of the dog’s composure.
Xiaotian Dog was cursing silently in his heart, but also secretly relieved that the divine skill given by Shopkeeper Chen was effective!
The inherited knowledge was correct; once he became invisible, no one could find him.
This outburst was mixed with Yun Zhongzi’s unwillingness and anger, a form of venting.
Looking at the powder under his feet, the aura spreading around him made the entire secret chamber seem incredibly solemn. Thieves had come twice, twice!
Just thinking about it made Yun Zhongzi seethe with anger. Last time, because he was caught off guard and outwitted, it was somewhat forgivable.
But this time, he had calculated meticulously, making it difficult for the thief to fall into the trap, yet he had escaped again, which was essentially like being slapped in the face!
Yun Zhongzi, a Quasi-Saint of such standing, having his cave abode breached twice by a grinning thief—if word of this spread...
The worst Quasi-Saint in the Three Realms, unable to even guard his own home.
These titles would likely become widespread, and Yun Zhongzi would surely become the laughingstock among immortals during their leisure time.
No, no, no!
Yun Zhongzi shook his head repeatedly, waved his hand to withdraw the Seal Demon, and with a thoughtful expression on his face, he took a step forward.
