Chapter 1181: Chapter 28: Bright Mirror Dao Master, Master of Feather Transformation

The winds and clouds dispersed, the dragons plunged into the Sea Abyss, now the Heavenly Sea was tranquil, countless dragons and visitors from all corners of the Ten Continents, who witnessed this scene, remained silent, their amazement undiminished.

“Who is this?” After quite a while, a visitor from outside the Zhongheng Dao Continent who had come to attend the Dragon Palace Banquet exclaimed in shock: “How is there chaos right from the start in the Heavenly Sea, does the Ancestral Dragon Hall have no decorum?!”

They couldn’t clearly see who An Jing was, nor did they understand why the two sides started fighting. They were merely shocked that there was no dragon to stop it from start to finish, as if the esteemed peak Ancestral Dragon Hall did not exist!

But this is because they do not understand dragons.

For after a moment of silence, what followed was a tide of loud and uproarious cheers and praises!

“Well fought!”

“What style, what kind of divine skill is this!” “Are your ears broken? It was just a slap!”

“Hit harder! How come that kid isn’t dead yet!”

“Oh my Ancestral Dragon Saint Venerable, could it be that there’s really a human whose body refinement is stronger than a dragon’s?”

“Such pure Taibai Divine Power, it truly smells just like the Daoist Court’s celestial gods as recorded in the hall, utterly authentic!”

The ones making sounds, cheering, marveling, and heckling now, all were dragons.

This is not because Xuan Zhang’s dragon fate is poor, failing to win dragon’s favor, thus the dragons are gloating, but truly because dragons by nature enjoy provoking and creating a ruckus, delighting in lively uproar, wishing for big events and amazing happenings every day, like a group of the purest merrymakers.

Not to mention that the Heaven Sea Dragon Court is one of the most peaceful realms in the world, the dragons often struggle for even topics of conversation, let alone jests, truly suffering from repressed internal injuries.

Even Jin Yanhua, floating behind An Jing and ready to make a move at any moment, was caught off guard, her thoughts racing.

“If it were Ming…”

Murmuring to herself, Jin Yanhua’s eyes sparkled, feeling the heat of dragon blood within: “He definitely wouldn’t be so ostentatious, disrespectful, doing something that would surely cause trouble… Even if he made a move, it would certainly be silently nourishing, like thunder on a clear day!”

“But An Jing isn’t bad either!”

“An Jing… Over the decades, I’ve never heard of this name.”

The human sects and the Heavenly Ancestor entrance are few who do not know An Jing, yet within the Dragon Court there are indeed some old dragons in seclusion, unaware of worldly affairs, who inquire curiously with familiar humans, only to receive enthusiastic and straightforward responses: “The Heavenly Dao Bell rings, heralding the arrival of the great world, isn’t that the simultaneous descent of Heavenly Mandate and Divine Mandate? This person before you is precisely Bright Mirror Daoist Master, Master of Feather Transformation, this generation’s Heavenly Mandate ‘Nature Master’, An Jing!”

At this point, the enthusiastic responder also felt rather emotional: “Interestingly enough, An Jing is caught between two generations. His master’s generation was the young of various sects, now most have manifested holiness, taking the sects’ real power, while his contemporaries are mostly still Martial Meridians, despite extraordinary talent, cannot travel the world, spreading their renown.”

“At this time of transition, only he displays such brilliance!”

“Interesting!” The old dragon suddenly realized, his long beard slightly moving, as divine sense circulated, swiftly acquiring many messages from the Dragon Court: “I see, he is the disciple of ‘Mingguang Dust’ of the Six Yang Mystic Mirror! I recall, he is the only person from the Middle Gates to surpass the true transmissions from various Upper Gates, among the true transmissions of sects on the ‘Ten Directions Dao List’ of the Ten Directions Marvelous Dharma Divine Sect!”

“With the revival of the Heavenly Divine Mirror, the Bright Mirror Sect ascending to the Upper Gate, and this Heavenly Mandate, it seems that the Bright Mirror Sect truly has the air of rising!”

Compared to these extremely excited, exhilarated, ordinary dragon people watching the commotion, the visitors from various places were much more serious.

In the east, amidst a group of dragons, an ice-blue divine dragon, long-bodied and glowing, lifted a lean Martial Artist, watching solemnly in the direction of An Jing.

“Brother Gu, did you notice?”

The lean Martial Artist spoke lightly, and the ice-blue divine dragon, evidently the descendant of the “Ancient Dragon God,” solemnly nodded: “Yes, I noticed… What An Jing uses is not the power of the Hollow Divine Repository, he has not broken through the Divine Concealment Realm, yet can suppress Jin Xuanzhang, an elite Divine Treasure Dragon Guard about to become a Dragon General, with one palm.”

“Brother Hui, I can’t see much more; I only know that this Heavenly Mandate’s power surpasses my imagination, unlike a human, can your Ten Directions Divine Sect’s Dharma Gate discern anything?”

“Let me take a closer look.”

The true inheritor of the Ten Directions Heavenly Technique Divine Sect, Hui Tianyu, carefully took out a spectacle-like artifact from his Great Void Magical Instrument, put it on, and looked intently at An Jing.

Not only that, but circling divine abnormality around him connected with the Formation Realm, an intangible force twisting space-time emanated, it was his Law Domain Flawless Void Domain, aiding the operation of the artifact.

Suddenly, countless Yuan Qi fluctuations, Spiritual Fiend frequencies, Void expansions and contractions, various waterfall-like data appeared within the glasses, rapidly analyzing.

But clearly under too much pressure, too many data, beyond processing limits, the glasses artifact rapidly began to heat up, emitting smoke, and the floating data started to become unstable.

Seemingly sensing something, An Jing turned from afar, looking in Hui Tianyu’s direction with curious eyes.

Bang!

Instantaneously, as the artifact was already nearing its limit, black smoke rose upon explosion, leaving Hui Tianyu momentarily blind, while his Law Domain retracted violently like bristles, back into the Inner Array Realm.

This could not harm a Martial Artist, but Hui Tianyu worriedly raised his hand, covering his left eye, enduring the knife and sword-like pain he said: “I, I saw… just now in that instant, an enormous force came with An Jing’s body as a source, descending from beyond his body and soul!”

“It wasn’t a ‘Law Domain’ from the dispersion of the Divine Repository Formation Realm, but something more complex and precise, not commanding or infecting the heaven and earth, but… subduing!”

“Originating from Martial Arts, it had a trace of Immortal Path shadow, but was neither of the two!”

Releasing his hand, an Immortal Gold Green Eye slowly faded, his Dharma Eye returned to black, while furiously jotting down various transmissions with a Water Mirror, he solemnly expressed: “Could it be that this is the Feather Transformation Dao which he has pioneered?!”

Hui Tianyu was not the only one to perceive that; many Martial Artists, accomplished in cultivation, vaguely detected clues: “Though this Heavenly Mandate has already beheaded several true men of the Divine Repository and Greater Heavenly Demon avatars in the Mingjing Nirvana Tribulation, his prominence is already the first among the young generation, but this time, he didn’t even use the ‘Taibai Feather Transformation Battle Armor,’ relying purely on physical form?”

Someone shook their head: “Though the body is strong, yet I vaguely sense peculiar energy. Could it be that, this Feather Transformation Dao, turns the Feathered Battle Armor into an independent Formation Realm, with the Inner Array Realm’s two-core drive, hence possessing such grand power?”

“This physique, magic skill divine skills, meticulous control of Spiritual Fiends, truly the first I have seen, wandering the world these years, what a waste!”

Some even eagerly shouted: “An Tianming, willing for a spar? I am willing to offer three pecks of ‘Qianggang Heavenly River Sand’ as a trial fee, just don’t kill me!”

“Then I’ll offer five bottles of Nixia Marrow, ready at any time for battle, make sure to let me experience the edge of Taibai Luminous Godly Ban!”

“Evil Suppressing Sword Master! Here, a disciple from the Sword Court, willing to offer my full wealth for Sword Master’s teachings, just to request full force, worth dying for!”

“Friends, do not rush.” Seeing the crowd full of fervor, An Jing couldn’t help but chuckle, elegantly raising his hand and replying: “Fellow Taoists, it won’t be long until the Zhaolin Ye Zhen Banquet, if you can stand before me then, I will take action.”

“If not, I’m unwilling to cause more deaths, you’d best go back and train some more.”

These words, like thunder, spread widely, encapsulating a meaning close to arrogant, but when spoken from An Jing’s mouth, instead had a graceful, modest feel.

Especially since the Dragon Guard he just slapped away hadn’t climbed out from the Sea Abyss, adding to the softness of these words.
