2212 Do you want to ruin the play?
This was the backdoor left for Skylark by the Scholarly Sage.
Even if the survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City had added all kinds of restrictions and anti-theft measures at the entrance to the resurrection formation, none of them would have stopped Skylarkbecause they only had knowledge about the main entrance.
This back door was only for Skylark, and no one other than the Sage knew about it.
This scene was completely relayed by Pavilion Master Chus strand of hair.
Song Shuhang: ...
I, Song, am a man who knows when to be serious. If I say I will not stir up trouble, I will not do so.
However, the Scholarly Sage opened the door himself, so I cant be blamed for this, right?
He silently sent a point of energy to Fairy Cheng Lin with a postscript attached: [Fairy Cheng Lin, even when a tree wishes for silence, the wind does not stop blowing. I wished for peace and quiet, but the Scholarly Sage did not give me the opportunity to carry out my wish.]
Fairy Cheng Lin: [Huh? What did you do? What did you do with the Scholarly Sages resurrection space?]
[I didnt do anything. I merely stood by and watched. But after Senior Skylark appeared, the entrance to the Scholarly Sages resurrection formation opened up by itself,] Song Shuhang quickly replied.
Fairy Cheng Lin: ...
The Sage left a back door for her?
Outside the resurrection formation, Senior Skylark said softly, Lets go in.
Next, the little black dot in front of her generated a powerful force of attraction, which sucked her, Sage White, and Thrice Reckless into it.
That black dot was both infinitely small and infinitely large.
When Thrice Reckless Mad Saber was sucked into it, he felt as if he had entered a dungeon inside a game. First there was a black screen, and when the world was loaded and the light returned, they found themselves in a new place.
Once he was inside, Senior White flicked his sleeves lightly, releasing Sixteen, Sister White Dragon, and Soft Feather from his sleeve.
However, Song Shuhang was left in the space within his sleeve.
Song Shuhang: ???
Senior White, what are you doing? Let me out too!
Song Shuhang called out, Senior White, Senior White, dont forget about me!
Senior White replied softly, You cannot come out right now.
Sixteen, Sister White Dragon, and the black-skinned Soft Feather looked at Senior White doubtfully.
Song Shuhang also looked confused. Why? Could it be that... its not good for me to wander in this resurrection formation?
Could it be because of the Scholarly Sages eye in my eye socket or the drop of the Sages blood in my body?
As soon as I come out with those two items, is it possible that I might end up activating the resurrection formation?
As expected of Senior White, hes so meticulous!
Senior White replied solemnly, Thats because I am pretending to be you right now. If you come out, wont there be two Song Shuhangs? Wouldnt that ruin the play?
Song Shuhang: ???
Sixteen: ...
The black-skinned Soft Feather blinked her eyes.
Senior White then added, Just stay in my Universe Hiding Sleeve for now. Fairy Creation, you should also stay where you are. I will let you out when I think its okay.
Sister White Dragon said with a smile, Fellow Daoist White is worried that if Shuhang and Fairy Creation come out, it could alter the resurrection formation, so we should wait and check the place before making a decision.
Sixteen nodded in understanding.
Sister White Dragon turned her head and looked around the Scholarly Sages resurrection space before saying, I quite like this place.
She said this because, in this space, everyone had become the same color as her.
This was a world with only two colors, black and white.
White sand, white grassland, and a huge black lake.
The people standing on the beach were also affected by the environment and turned into shades of black and white.
The black-skinned Soft Feather asked curiously, Where is the Scholarly Sages resurrection formation?
In this space, there was no formation they could see.
The entire space is a part of the resurrection formation, said Skylark. She took a few steps forward, then squatted on the edge of the big black lake, reaching out to touch the black water.
Thrice Reckless thought for a short moment and said, And this dark lake is the core of the resurrection formation, right?
Skylark nodded and said, Indeed.
She raised her slender hand back and held out her palm to Thrice Reckless.
Thrice Reckless Mad Saber handed over a bracelet-shaped magical treasure to her.
Skylark got up and put on the magical treasure. She then took out a dress from it and changed into the dress calmly.
Thrice Reckless Mad Saber turned his head, avoiding looking at her while she changed.
The virtuous lamia reached out and covered Senior Whites eyes.
By the way, is there no guardian in this space? Senior White asked. When his eyes were covered, he immediately got the urge to start meditating.
In order to stop himself, he had to divert his attention by chatting.
Song Shuhang said from the Universe Hiding Sleeve, Perhaps the survivors of the Heavenly City are confident in their defensive measures, or maybe people cannot stay in this resurrection space for long periods of time, so they cant really send people to guard this place.
It seems to be the second reason. Someone is coming. Sister White Dragon looked up at the sky above the lake.
On the surface of the pitch-black lake, the projection of a white gate appeared.
Then, a bald man stepped through the gate.
It was one of the Tribulation Transcenders who was secretly guarding the base.
While he was responsible for keeping an eye on the base, he was also responsible for guarding the resurrection formation.
Just now, he sensed that there was an intruder, so he undid the seals as quickly as possible to enter the space through the main entrance.
I did not expect for people to be able to break in despite all the time and resources we spent on the defensive measures at the entrance of this place. The bald man had his arms crossed as he stood in the air and looked down at the people on the beach. Im curious, how did you get inside? Ive been guarding the entrance the entire time. In other words... you did not come through the main entrance, right?
It was clear to him that there were other entrances to the Scholarly Sages resurrection space, and that was not good news.
As he said that, his gaze happened to fall on Sister White Dragon.
Ancestral Golden Dragon, so it was you, the bald man said in a deep voice. If it was you, I can understand. It seems that you secretly broke through our confinement.
Dont fault me for this. Im neutral. Sister White Dragon shook her head.
So, it was not the doing of the Ancestral Golden Dragon?
The bald man obviously believed in Sister White Dragon.
Then, who broke through the restrictions?
His eyes then fell on Sage Song Shuhang White.
I know you. Youre the first Sage in a thousand years, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. I just happened to go out of the secret realm and see your show of divinity. The bald man stretched his neck, making a crackling sound, and said in a mocking tone, I did not expect that apart from having superb cultivation talent, youre also very good at scurrying around like a little mouse.
Sage Song Shuhang White nodded slightly and said, Many people acknowledge me as a little mouse that is difficult to crush.
Song Shuhang: ...
The bald man: ...
