I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 846: Nine Palace Reversal Array

Clearly, the cultivation of the Ghost Head Infant is much higher than Lu Zheng's. With its aura being the basis for spell casting, it's impossible to see its true form.

This situation is different from when they were in Weizhou.

At that time, the Profound Heart Demon remained hidden, only revealing a mortal aura. If Lu Zheng had observed it with the Treasure Mirror then and remained calm, he wouldn't have been able to discern the Profound Heart Demon's details.

Unfortunately, when the Profound Heart Demon realized it was being observed, it panicked and exposed itself instead.

But this time, evidently, the aura of the Ghost Head Infant is much deeper than the aura that spell casting seeks, so the Treasure Mirror cannot display the true image of the Ghost Head Infant.

"An expert!"

With Lu Zheng's current level of cultivation, any opponent whose true nature he cannot discern must have at least two thousand years of Dao Practice.

The Ghost Head Infant was renowned; it could escape back to the Netherworld back in the day. According to Chu Jin, it's been neither broken nor established for a century. Thus, its cultivation is difficult to gauge.

Three thousand years? Or even more?

Lu Zheng stroked his chin, "Too bad the Sect Leader Si has left; otherwise, wouldn't it just be a matter of a single slap?"

Shen Ying couldn't help but glance at Lu Zheng, "You plan to ask the Sect Leader Si for help!"

Chu Jin certainly did not know the Sect Leader Si, and therefore, did not comment. Instead, he watched Lu Zheng pull the camera of the Treasure Mirror back, making the Cloud Qi gradually thin out.

Soon, after the camera of the Treasure Mirror had ascended to the sky, layers of cloud mist cleared, revealing a hazy small town in the center of the mirror.

Lu Zheng's eyes sparkled, "Where is this?"

He found that the Treasure Mirror's camera hadn't reached its limit, indicating that the Ghost Head Infant's skill, although higher than his own, was still within a calculable range.

It's important to note that when he tested the Sect Leader Si's power before, no matter how he adjusted the camera, it was always a swirling cloud, obfuscating everything.

Shen Ying and Chu Jin leaned over to look. Shen Ying shook her head, unable to discern it, but Chu Jin's eyes glinted, and he said to Lu Zheng, "Move the Treasure Mirror thirty more li to the north."

Lu Zheng moved obediently, and soon the small town disappeared from view, with the Treasure Mirror then displaying a wide river, tens of li across.

"Yi River?"

Chu Jin nodded affirmatively, "Yi River, this is Yangzhou's Jinnan County in Yinan Dao."

"Jinnan County?"

"Jinnan County is a major county in Yangzhou, positioned along the tributary of the Yi River. Its waterway traffic is convenient and its bustling atmosphere is not far behind Yangzhou's State Capital."

Chu Jin's gaze sharpened, and he said gravely, "If he acts here, he might be able to gather a thousand children. I'll go notify Lord Qi right away!"

Having said this, Chu Jin thanked Lu Zheng, "Thank you, Young Master Lu. Without your assistance, we might only realize when the Ghost Head Infant acts."

He paused before continuing, "But the Ghost Head Infant's cultivation is profound, you and your wife needn't stay here."

"It's fine, we'll watch from afar and not intervene," Lu Zheng nodded, "You go find Lord Qi. My wife and I will wait nearby to prevent him from leaving."

"Alright!" Chu Jin wasted no time and, after giving a bow, summoned a breeze and flew directly toward Yanzhou.

Lu Zheng and Shen Ying then took to riding the clouds, swiftly approaching within a hundred li of Jinnan County.

"If we go directly, will it startle him?" Shen Ying asked.

"Hence, we mustn't approach directly; just wait here on this mountain peak," Lu Zheng pointed to a scenic mountain top.

This mountain is an obligatory point on the route from Yanzhou to Jinnan County. If Qi Fengyun comes, he's sure to see them.

The pair descended to the mountain top. Though it was already afternoon, being fifty or sixty li away, they couldn't see anything in Jinnan County.

...

"They're coming!"

Lu Zheng looked up to see several streaks of light flying overhead. As they passed the mountain top, they swiftly descended, landing atop it.

The leader was Qi Fengyun, who brought eight experts with him, including Chu Jin.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but be amazed. Just this group equaled a medium-sized sect's strength.

"Lu Xiaoyou!"

After sizing Lu Zheng up, Qi Fengyun's eyes brightened, "It's been a long time, Lu Xiaoyou's cultivation has advanced rapidly. Congratulations!"

Lu Zheng smiled, "Lord Qi praises too much; by luck, I haven't encountered a bottleneck yet."

Qi Fengyun shook his head with a smile, asking, "Is the Ghost Head Infant still in Jinnan County?"

Lu Zheng nodded, "Still there!"

Qi Fengyun squinted eastward, his tone icy, "Seems he plans something big."

Pausing briefly, Qi Fengyun turned toward the southern horizon, prompting Lu Zheng to follow his gaze. A streak of light was descending, transforming into the Governor of Rongzhou whom they had met before.

"Old Man Wen is here too?" Qi Fengyun asked.

The Governor of Rongzhou nodded, then pulled nine small flags from a snakeskin pouch on his waist, "Lord Wen is already in the valley three hundred li away, setting up the Nine Palace Reversal Array. Using the Array Flags, we can relocate him there."

"Good!" Qi Fengyun clapped his hands, his gaze hardening, "We must ensure he stays here this time!"

After his words, Qi Fengyun nodded at Lu Zheng, then flew toward Jinnan County.

"They're just going there directly?" Lu Zheng was bewildered.

Chu Jin took a small flag from the Governor of Rongzhou and smiled at Lu Zheng, "Lord Wen of Yinan Dao is a master of arrays. He won't let the Ghost Head Infant endanger the entire county's people."

Chu Jin said, and then departed with the others.

"Let's go watch the excitement!"

Lu Zheng took Shen Ying's hand and followed them leisurely.

He wasn't merely watching the excitement. Since he had identified the Ghost Head Infant, it involved him, and collecting luck with the Jade Seal required being within a certain distance range.

They covered the dozens of li swiftly.

Qi Fengyun hovered in the sky, a Sword Pill floating above his head, with threads of Sword Qi emanating from it, winding around the people of Jinnan County below.

Lu Zheng and Shen Ying watched from afar, deeply impressed, "Such fine control!"

In the next moment, a heavy Yin Qi erupted from a small building north of town.

At the same time, the Yin Qi acted like a trigger, causing hundreds of places in the city to shoot up in Yin Qi.

"It's those children!"

Qi Fengyun pressed down with a reverse hand, Infinite Sword Qi descended from the sky, temporarily suppressing the connection between the Ghost Head Infant and the hundreds of children. Meanwhile, Chu Jin and the nine quickly flew to the small courtyard's perimeter, establishing the Nine Palace Reversal Array, and wielding the Array Flags.

"You…"

In an instant, before Lu Zheng saw the Ghost Head Infant's appearance, the nine small flags flickered with light, enclosing the courtyard at their center. A Spiritual Qi ripple passed by, stirring up space.

Then, the terrifyingly dense source of Yin Qi suddenly vanished.

Lu Zheng, "..."
