Red Heart Patrols the Sky

Chapter 895 - 895 145 Encounter

895: Chapter 145: Encounter 895: Chapter 145: Encounter Granny Bizhu had been guarding outside the only floating island in the Dingwei area for a full three days and nights.Although the Lost World had no sun, it still had day and night, with the day being an expanse of white, and the night being an expanse of darkness.

The Neifu Cultivators could barely withstand the alienation for two days and had to return to the island to recuperate.

Those who removed their Divine Power Seeds found that even the light from the Neifu’s Divine Power Light could at most hold up for three days.

Eventually, without the protection of the starlight, they couldn’t resist the alienation of the Lost World for too long.

But three days and nights had passed, and she still hadn’t guarded her target.

Her little fish had quietly swum everywhere, encircling the entire floating island.

At any sign, she would strike with the force of thunder, making it impossible for Jiang Wang to sneak in unnoticed.

She maintained her utmost patience and never left, but still, she didn’t achieve the best outcome.

Although the Dingwei area was just one of the many areas known in the Lost World, it still spanned several thousand miles.

To find a person in such a vast area, especially with the constant interference from the Sea Clan, was undoubtedly a very difficult task.

That’s why she initially made the choice to guard the floating island because that was the optimal choice.

However, by this time, mentioning this was meaningless since Jiang Wang had not appeared.

Her judgment was wrong.

Now there were four possibilities.

One was that Jiang Wang had already completed his atonement and left the Lost World, this possibility was extremely small.

Killing a hundred commander-level Sea Clan in three days was something she couldn’t possibly achieve.

Two was that Jiang Wang, to avoid confrontation with her, might have run to another area, but this possibility was also not very likely, due to the long journey.

He might have alienated before even getting there.

Three was that Jiang Wang had some way of ignoring the effects of alienation, in which case he would still be in the process of searching and fighting the Sea Clan.

Although according to her experience, such a method didn’t exist, Qi Country is extensive and prominent, so perhaps they possessed some unique, secretive Fa Men.

The fourth possibility was that Jiang Wang’s physique was exceptional, his control over Path Origin was meticulous, and he could naturally resist alienation for a much longer time.

In this case, quickly completing his atonement and leaving would be the best choice.

With no other option, even if it was like looking for a needle in the sea, they could only go and search now.

They could only hope that Jiang Wang hadn’t left.

Things were not going smoothly.

She had intended to take the opportunity of the faction’s struggle to win enough resources for herself to achieve “God Arrives,” but instead, she lost outright and could only look for a needle in the sea of the Lost World.

Granny Bizhu thought as she activated the Seal Technique, and the small fish hiding around the floating island, acting as “eyes,” scattered in all directions.

In the Lost World, these small fish were very prone to danger.

Losing them was painful, but if they could capture Jiang Wang, then everything would be worth it.

…

…

A frog-shaped sea beast with a big belly, red eyes, and green skin leapt high, jumping over dozens of yards before landing.

Its bulging red eyes rolled around aimlessly, yet it never strayed far from a general area.

It had a pair of buffalo-like horns on its head, it had been the earlier bald Sea Clan’s mount, which Jiang Wang later captured during a chaotic escape.

In its red eyes appeared an image of a white-haired, hunched old lady, walking slowly with the help of a cane.

It had an instinctual urge to swallow, but it didn’t understand that the frail opponent in front of it was not one it could contend with.

However, the Hidden Snake residing inside its body saw clearly.

Target spotted!

The Hidden Snake immediately released its control over the frog-shaped sea beast’s instincts.

So it leapt high, sprinting from afar, the oppressive sound of the wind rushing towards the thin old woman.

While still in midair, before it even landed, there appeared a brilliantly red little fish swimming in front of it—relative to the size of the red-eyed horned frog, this palm-sized fish was indeed petite.

But the bright red fish only swished its tail once, plunging into the left eye of the frog-shaped sea beast, swallowing its ruby-like eyeball and burrowing into its body!

The frog-shaped sea beast had just opened its mouth, not yet managing to wail, before it fell down.

It hadn’t been down for long when it struggled to stand up again.

Blood was still dripping from its empty left eye, but it had turned around and obediently let the white-haired old woman slowly approach and stand on it.

It walked forward unsteadily, at first a bit awkward, but gradually becoming more adept.

This eerie scene was witnessed by no one else.

Inside its body, a black Hidden Snake slowly dissipated.

…

Hiding in the distance, Jiang Wang opened his eyes and spotted Granny Bizhu!

The current distance was beyond fifty li, outside the range of the Red Mirror.

But combining the map and the speed of the frog-shaped sea beast, he could roughly deduce Granny Bizhu’s range of movement.

With a thought, the remaining thirty-seven sea beasts clustered together—some had unexpectedly died earlier.

He had observed carefully in the bamboo building, having felt at that time that the old woman’s fish were extraordinary, and killing a Tongtian-level sea beast in an instant was just a confirmation of his judgment.

Granny Bizhu was adept at beast mastery, and many of the Sea Tower’s protected sea beasts were under her training.

These sea beasts obviously could not cause any actual harm to Granny Bizhu, but they could at least distract her a bit.

The path to ultimate victory was built on accumulating small advantages.

The gap between Neifu Divine Skills and the Outer Building of the four environments definitely existed, and his victory in waiting was just the first step.

Jiang Wang considered for a while, then leaped out from the spiked elephant’s ear, landing in front of a nearby boulder—this boulder had been pushed over by the sea beasts he controlled.

The boulder would be moved by the rules of the Lost World, making it difficult to stabilize, so he helped position it himself to forcefully create a tactical advantage.

He and the controlled spiked elephant worked together to move the boulder, stopping only when they reached an approximately satisfactory spot.

Judging from the direction Granny Bizhu was moving, she would inevitably pass nearby.

Because the orientations in Lost World were reversed, it wasn’t possible to be too precise, but with the map for reference, the rough area was correctly deduced.

Then, he let the spiked elephant wander around while he hid himself on top of the boulder, still using the Shenwang Pearl and Red Mirror in tandem to conceal his presence, continuing to wait.

Although Granny Bizhu was about to fall into the ambush, the moment the frog-shaped sea beast was instantaneously controlled had made him decide to be even more cautious.

Granny Bizhu’s beast mastery skills made him feel that his earlier decision to hide in the spiked elephant’s ear was not the safest choice.

Gripping the Red Mirror, he observed through its perspective, missing nothing within a fifty li range.

Up until now, using the Red Mirror to observe his opponent had only been vaguely sensed once in Qingyang Town by Xiang Qian.

But that was because he possessed an extraordinary Flying Sword, Longguang Shooting Fight, which had a spirit warning him.

Even Yin Guan, skilled in concealment, had been noticed by Xiang Qian, hadn’t he?

Like Hai Zongming before, he had been unable to detect being spied upon through the Red Mirror.

Besides, now that he had passed the Fuhai and Ask Heart trials, Jiang Wang was extremely confident in the Red Mirror.

About three quarters of an hour later, indeed, the figure of the frog-shaped sea beast leaping appeared in the Red Mirror.

The hollow eye had stopped bleeding, and the remaining eye seemed dull.

Between the two curved horns, the white-haired old woman stood with her cane.

The vine chair previously used by the sea clan member had been dismantled by Jiang Wang, and the traces fixed, to avoid any problems being spotted.

Upon this reflection by the Red Mirror, an immediate problem was discovered.

The white-haired old woman standing with her cane was just an illusion, attached behind her was a drop of water, which was actually Granny Bizhu herself.

If Jiang Wang had not used the Red Mirror to check first, he might have lost the advantage in a sudden attack!
