Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 601-Chapter 700)

Below the Soaring Clouds terrace, Li Qingshan smiled at Han Qiongzhi. “Don’t worry, I’m fine. Tieyi is fine too!” In his right hand hidden within his sleeves, there was a ripple of water, and it turned into a water mirror.

The image in the water mirror twisted, and the palm-sized Asura Field appeared. He immediately used the spirit turtle to suppress its aura.

This was his most flexible innate ability—Watermirror’s Image.

In the very beginning, he could only create a mirror clone, but afterwards, he discovered he could reflect attacks. Even further afterwards, he discovered that no matter how far away, he could use the Watermirror’s Image to directly summon his clone to his side. The items on the clone obviously came too.

In the past, he had never imagined this move could be of any proper use. It only gave him the convenience of being able to summon his clone to his side when needed. It could help out, or he could summon his clone back in time if it were under attack, letting him avoid some losses.

He never imagined it would achieve such wonders this time. Although he could not directly summon his clone to his side, he could secretly pass some “stolen goods” over to his main body through the water mirror. Leaving his clone there was only to lure the enemy away.

Having completely duped Si Qing and Mo Yu and obtained the Asura Field, Li Qingshan was in a great mood. When he gazed into the distance again, he saw Si Qing facing off against the Golden Core cultivators, which made him even more cheerful. Good things came in pairs.

Heh, my good grandsonny A’qing, you’ve gone to such lengths and pains, yet it has still all fallen into the lap of your grandfather Northmoon in the end!

If he thought closely, there were a lot of suspicious points to consider. How did Northmoon grasp the perfect timing to strike? And how was he able to locate the centre of the Asura Field as soon as he struck, stealing the control over the Asura Field? Even Mo Yu had taken several days before he slowly invaded the centre of the Asura Field.

However, no one could have imagined that the real Northmoon had always been trapped in the Asura Field, calculating and analysing the entire Asura Field through the spirit turtle, which was why he managed to succeed in a single stroke.

Suddenly, he felt a sharp gaze. Looking back, he smiled brightly at Gu Yanying on the Soaring Clouds terrace and said to Han Qiongzhi, “I’ll go have a talk with commander Gu.” He called Hua Chengzan along.

Hua Chengzan caught up to him in a hurry, and the two of them arrived on the Soaring Clouds terrace, clasping their hands. “Greetings from your subordinates, commander Gu, commander Si!”

Si Bao said impatiently, “Li Qingshan, tell me everything that happened. What happened inside?”

Li Qingshan told her what happened, without any lies. However, he did skip over the matters connected to his secrets.

When Si Bao heard that Li Qingshan had obtained the Great Banyan Tree King’s Fruit of Wisdom, she had already widened her eyes. When she heard how he took on eighteen people alone and defeated all of Si Qing’s lackeys, she even showed disbelief.

“The Great Banyan Tree King would give the Fruit of Wisdom to a kid like you? You actually defeated so many Foundation Establishment cultivators alone? You better not be boasting, or I’ll beat you up!”

Li Qingshan laughed. “Just by you?”



“What did you say!?” Si Bao questioned her ears. There truly were no bounds to this kid’s arrogance.

“Cough, cough, nothing. Hehe, I’ve overreacted. I’ve been provoked a little too much by people recently.”

Gu Yanying held back Si Bao, who was about to blow up, and smiled. “Alright, settle down. Keep going!”

“Afterwards, I visited each battlefield and stopped all of the battles before killing all of Si Qing’s subordinates. However, the Asura Field descended afterwards, and it still ended up descending into chaos. In the end, only we were left, but we were quite lucky. We finally managed to escape there alive.”

Apart from Li Qingshan, everyone felt like they had just survived a disaster, but probably only he was able to remain in a good mood. Even the Academy of the Hundred Schools from the Clear River prefecture that had the most survivors lost more than half of their disciples. However, Li Qingshan was not acquainted with any of them, so their deaths did not exactly sadden him.

“I can testify that everything commander Li said is true!” Hua Chengzan added.

Hua Chengzan’s gaze drifted past Gu Yanying and Li Qingshan. He could not help but think, Does she know his other identity? Heh, I’m such an idiot. If she didn’t know, why would she give him so much special treatment?

Both of them were people who resided between the Daemon race and the Human race, so they obviously possessed a natural understanding of one another. Both of them only did things that they wanted, and they were both unfathomable. Back then, under the snowy pine outside Qingyang city, it was actually a fateful encounter between them, while he was just an insignificant background character.

He could not help but think of what Li Qingshan had said to him in the past, to either pursue her arduously or to let go of her with ease. Back then, he even said he had absolutely no idea how great of a distance existed between them and Gu Yanying. Before he knew it, many years had passed, and he could already stand on equal footing with her.

When he thought up to there, he suddenly made up his mind. It was about time he made up his mind!

Si Bao clapped her hands and smiled. “Hah, Si Qing is going to be in trouble this time. He probably can’t even maintain his position as the Marquis of Ruyi. I really want to thank that Northmoon!”

If he had just used cultivators as sacrifices to refine the Asura Field, as long as he had a justifiable reason, the imperial court would probably do nothing to him. Perhaps someone might even admire Si Qing’s great efforts. However, if he lost the Asura Field, then the situation would be entirely different.

Dragon Arenas were all items the imperial clan forged using tremendous amounts of resources. They were equivalent to items the emperor bestowed upon them. Once they were lost, it would be a great crime. Now that this had happened, his actions of sacrificing cultivators would come off as atrocious and foolish.

In short, evil could be covered up, but incompetence was unforgivable. The imperial court would definitely punish him.

Si Qing understood this too. He had almost fallen into a rage after going through such sacrifices and pains to end up like this. He turned into a black dragon and roared furiously, spitting out rolling black smoke that formed a black cloud. He moved around inside, catching a Golden Core cultivator in his claws, just about to kill him.

Jia Zhen said in a hurry, You mustn’t, your highness!”

Si Qing barely managed to keep his fury in check. He asked the Golden Core cultivator, “Do you want me to spare your life?”

The Golden Core cultivator happened to be extremely staunch. He said, “I, Peng Shizong, have cultivated for my entire life. I can only endure insults so many times!” Immediately, he blew up his golden core. With a great boom, the dragon’s claw was forcefully blown apart, and the black dragon suffered a colossal wound from the explosion. Blood and scales scattered into the surroundings like it was raining. Si Qing let out a furious and forlorn dragon’s roar.

“Fellow Peng!” “Fellow Peng!”

The Golden Core cultivators cried out. They were all Golden Core cultivators of the Ruyi commandery, so they had all become acquainted with one another at least a century ago. Even if they were not particularly close with one another, they could not help but feel sympathy for the loss of one of their own when they saw the fate he faced.

“Si Qing, you’re out of your mind!” “To think that the mighty imperial clan would actually raise someone with the heart of a jackal like you!”
