Chapter 255 The Mortal World

She landed gracefully, scroll in hand, dodging Lu Fuyue's attack with incredible speed. Then she looked up at Lu Fuyue and suddenly laughed, "Fairy Lu, have you ever tasted the worldly pleasures?"

"Why don't you give it a try?"

Having said that, Fairy Pear Blossom's eyes flashed with a sharp light. She raised her hand and tossed the scroll into the air again, her hands rapidly forming hand seals. Countless streams of spiritual energy from her body surged into the scroll.

Lu Fuyue's eyes changed, and she turned over to stand up, clutching her zither, trying to dodge the painting that was coming at her. However, how could the Pear Blossom Fairy let her have her way?

Fairy Pear Blossom immediately accelerated the circulation of her internal energy and poured a large amount of spiritual energy into the painting again. "Fairy Lu, I hope you can successfully break through this painting within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what you will encounter inside."

In an instant, a fierce wind arose, and the blood and qi of the onlookers surged, their faces turning pale.

On the high platform.

Elder Jianqing and the other elders exchanged glances, then flew down and joined forces to set up layer upon layer of barriers around the arena.

With the barrier in place, the disciples from various sects below the stage were finally able to catch their breath. The feeling of escaping death surged in their hearts, leaving them unable to recover for a long time.

Just now, for a fleeting moment, they seemed to have touched the edge of death.

Nourished by spiritual energy, the scroll grew larger and larger, then unfolded in the air, instantly revealing a magnificent yet somewhat melancholic panorama of the vast land before everyone's eyes.

Lu Fuyue's expression changed slightly. She made a quick decision and adjusted her cultivation to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. However, a terrifying spiritual force emerged from the painting and immediately pulled her into it.

Before anyone could even be shocked by Lu Fuyue's cultivation level, which had suddenly reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, they saw her being sucked into the painting.

"Look, Fairy Lu has been sucked into Fairy Pear Blossom's magic artifact."

"It's true, it seems that Fairy Lu is likely to lose."

"But did you notice that Fairy Lu's cultivation level has changed? It has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage."

"I saw it, but so what? Fairy Pear Blossom is half a step out of the body, and with that ninth-grade spiritual artifact, the Map of Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, even a great cultivator who has reached the Out of the Body might not be able to defeat her."

"What? A ninth-grade spiritual weapon? That's actually a legendary ninth-grade spiritual weapon?"

"It seems that the winner of this competition is undoubtedly the Pear Blossom Fairy."

...

Everyone in the cultivation world knows that Fairy Pear Blossom possesses a magical artifact called the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Scroll." Legend has it that Fairy Pear Blossom, despite being a cultivator, killed mortals without incurring any karmic consequences. This was because she somehow obtained a secret technique that allowed her to absorb those mortals into the scroll and then use its power to torture and kill them.

All of this is thanks to the fact that this landscape painting has the effect of shielding heavenly secrets and concealing cause and effect.

The scene changed, and after an unknown amount of time, Lu Fuyue opened her eyes again, only to find herself sitting in front of a dressing table, with a pleasing-looking maidservant doing her hair and makeup.

She looked up at the bronze mirror in front of her and saw an extremely beautiful and delicate face reflected in it.

Lu Fuyue raised her hand and gently touched her brow. It was smooth and bare. She frowned slightly and looked around at her surroundings.

The elegant light blue gauze curtains, the exquisite white jade vase, the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, the chessboard on the table, and the faint sandalwood fragrance emanating from the incense burner with unicorn patterns in the corner—all these things suggest that he is of extraordinary status.
