Chapter 1,163: Special Care

t this moment, these people were all frowning and looking towards the center of the hall, where Xia Qi sat in the seat of honor.Xia Qi, however, held his wine cup and drank leisurely, with a calm expr...As the last day drew to a close, the five colossal teleportation arrays within the dimensional rift finally shut down with a resounding boom.

From this moment onwards, until the closing of the Zhengdao Leihai, this area within a radius of ten thousand miles, including the Zhengdao Lei Realm itself, will be completely and utterly sealed off.

No unauthorized entry or exit permitted.

Beyond the boundary, besides disciples patrolling back and forth, it had once again returned to tranquility. However, within the righteous thunder realm, a scene of great excitement was unfolding.

All the cities were overcrowded, and every restaurant and tavern was packed with people who had come to attend the ceremony.

These people included old friends I hadn't seen in years, strangers meeting for the first time, and even sworn enemies.

However, because nowadays any combat is forbidden within the Righteous Path Thunder Realm, they also have a rare chance to sit together temporarily, drink and have a good time, discussing the qualifying battle that will open tomorrow, and discussing who will ultimately emerge victorious and enter the Righteous Path Thunder Sea.

Of course, the most discussed topic among everyone is Meng Guan's crazy cultivation!

Today's news of Jiang Yun scaring Yang Chong with his imposing aura has reached everyone's ears.

Unless seen by many, no one would believe this could be true.

Not to mention the prodigies of the Fa Dao Lei Jie, even ordinary cultivators, how many would be driven mad by this!

And this also allowed Jiang Yun to successfully replace Yang Chong and become one of the three most likely to enter the Zhengdao Leihai.

Even, some people believe that Jiang Yun's strength might even surpass Lei Bufan!

However, people who hold this view only dare to whisper about it in private, after all, this is the territory of Lord Lei, Lei Bufan's home. To say that Lei Bufan is inferior to Jiang Yun would definitely cause public outrage.

Apart from these spectators, most of the cultivators who will be participating in the qualifying rounds tomorrow are staying in their designated rooms, conserving their energy and preparing for the day ahead.

Ginger Cloud is also like that.

Although his condition has been adjusted to its peak, he doesn't need any rest. However, in this unfamiliar Righteous Path Lightning Realm, he is like a stranger.

Moreover, he was also wearing the identity of Meng Guan. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he wouldn't go out.

However, more importantly, there is another reason why Jiang Yun must stay inside the house.

Since Gingercloud was always cautious in his actions, the first thing he did after entering this hermitage arranged by the Righteous Path Lei Realm for himself was to use his divine sense to scan the surroundings.

Although he didn't think the righteous thunder realm would make a move on them, much to his surprise, deep within the basement of this room, his divine sense actually discovered an extremely hidden formation!

This formation wasn't activated, and even if someone else took over, they might not have noticed it.

But Ginger Cloud not only possessed divine awareness far surpassing others, but her formation skills were also profound. That's why she was able to perceive it.

Originally, Jiang Yun still thought that this was probably a defensive formation arranged by the Dao Lightning Realm. However, after he secretly used his divine sense to check the rooms of other people, he found that only under his own room was there such a formation.

And he suddenly remembered the young man who had brought him here. When the young man first heard his name, his hands had trembled slightly involuntarily.

This naturally made him understand that he was deliberately arranged to enter this room, and the formation was specially prepared to deal with him.

If you hadn't realized my identity, then Meng Guan, as an identity, had offended people besides Yang Chong, only that Lei Xiao on the death stage!

And when that young man heard my name, Yang Chong hadn't appeared yet. So this person who was targeting me must be Lei Xiao!

After realizing this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but sneer. After studying the formation carefully for a while, he discovered that it was an illusionary formation!

Once a formation is activated, the power of the formation will trap those within it in an illusion.

This means Lei Xiao wouldn't dare to kill me openly.

"After all, the qualification battle starts tomorrow. If I, as someone who successfully advanced, get injured or killed in the residence arranged by Zhèilei of the Righteous Path, he definitely can't escape responsibility."

"And the reason he created this illusion was probably because he had doubts about my true identity. He hoped that by letting me fall into the illusion, he could investigate my origins."

Or, did they use illusions to cheat me in the qualifying match, making me lose and then waiting for it to be over before killing me!

Since you've been taking such special care of me, I certainly can't disappoint you!

This is why Jiang Yun doesn't leave the monastery. He wants to give Lei Xiao a chance to take action and open the formation!

Then, Jiang Yun decisively sat cross-legged in the center of the formation. His divine sense first swept over Xue Qing's situation, who was shrouded under the heavy clouds. This was something he had to do several times every day.

Although he knew that bringing Xueqing was just like bringing Mu Shaofeng, there was a high chance of exposing his identity, but he couldn't bear to let Xueqing leave his side again.

After confirming that the snowfall remained stable, Jiang Yun closed his eyes. He waited for the formation to activate while lost in thought.

At this time, everyone else was probably thinking about tomorrow's qualifying match, but Jiang Yun wasn't.

Because the specific competition method of the qualification battle differs each year, most people, including him, are still unaware of how tomorrow's qualification battle will determine the final qualifications. They can only wait and see how things unfold.

As for his opponents in the qualifying rounds, even someone as formidable as Lei Bufan, Jiang Yun didn't take them to heart.

At this moment, he was contemplating how to leave Leiji Heaven after successfully entering the Divine Thunder Sea and accomplishing his purpose.

Jiang Yun could imagine that if he truly entered the Righteous Path Thunder Sea and did not reveal his identity, he would inevitably be favored by Lei Ji Tianzhu, and might even be asked to remain in the Righteous Path Thunder Realm and serve him.

Even if he disagrees, Lei Ji Tianzhu has ways to make him stay.

If one doesn't have anything urgent to attend to, then staying in Lei Ji Tian and feigning compliance for a while wouldn't be too detrimental. However, there are still many things I need to accomplish.

Neither Mu Shao Feng nor Xue Qing's injuries could delay matters for too long, let alone the Jiang clan who had been trapped within arm's reach yet worlds apart for over forty years.

Besides, I also want to go back to the Shanhai Realm and see Fang Mang, visit the Dahuang Realm and see the disciples of Wenda Sect, and by the way settle the matter of that Dugu Wen.

"If there's no other way, then I just have to force my way through!"

Just as Jiang Yun let out a sigh in his heart, an extremely faint voice suddenly rang in his ear, causing him to sneer, because the illusion array beneath him had been activated.

For a fleeting moment, a glimmer flashed in Ginger Cloud's eyes. As the light faded, his gaze became vacant, as if his soul had departed his body.

"Bang!"

After a full quarter of an hour, the door was flung open from outside, and an old man walked in slowly. It was indeed Lei Xiaogang!

Looking at Jiang Yun, who was clearly caught in an illusion, Lei Xiao sneered: "Meng Guan, we meet again."

As he spoke, Lei Xiao strode carelessly into the illusionary formation, locking eyes with Jiang Yun and saying, "Now, remember carefully what I'm about to tell you."

"You are not Meng Guan, you are, Jiang, Yun!"

As soon as Lei Xiao's words fell, Jiang Yun suddenly rushed to him with a strange smile and said coldly, "You're right, I am Jiang Yun!"

Those vacant eyes suddenly flared with a brilliant light!
