Chapter 992: Chapter 307: Literary Dao Law_2

“The three disciples of Zhonghe Hall should have fallen here.” A middle-aged man from the Purple Mansion held an ancient copper mirror shimmering with spiritual charm, standing above the chaotic battle of sea beasts, his gaze fixed on the copper mirror in his hand, slightly furrowing his brows: “The energy at this place is completely disrupted by these beasts, the Heaven Mysterious Mirror can’t detect anything.”

“Uncle-master, could it be that the three from Zhonghe Hall accidentally provoked these beasts and were besieged to death by them?”

A woman at the Golden Core Perfection Realm beside the middle-aged man spoke quietly.

Several people were disciples of the Patrol Hunting Dao Law Enforcement Hall, and they were here because the soul lamps of the three Golden Core late-stage cultivators from Zhonghe Hall suddenly extinguished at the Law Enforcement Hall, prompting the customary inspection.

If the three were accidentally killed in the Outer Sea Region, the matter would be put to rest.

But if the three were killed at the hands of other cultivators, then the Patrol Hunting Dao would consider avenging depending on the situation.

If the forces behind the murderer are weaker than the Patrol Hunting Dao, the death of the three would be an opportunity for the Patrol Hunting Dao to blackmail the opposing side for some valuable items or even eliminate them, intimidating surrounding forces, showing them the consequences of harming Patrol Hunting Dao disciples.

If the forces behind the murderer are similar to the Patrol Hunting Dao, they could demand compensation for the three disciples, proving to their disciples that the Patrol Hunting Dao cares for all its disciples, thus increasing their sense of belonging and cohesion.

This is a tactic favored by every major force.

Disciples under the sect contribute to the sect when alive, and even in death, they must exhibit their value.

However, if the forces behind the opposing side are far stronger, then the death of the three is essentially meaningless.

The Patrol Hunting Dao undoubtedly wouldn’t provoke a strong Upper Sect for three Golden Core late-stage disciples.

They hope that the murderer will be appeased after killing, not causing more trouble for the Patrol Hunting Dao.

The words of the Golden Core Perfection female cultivator made the disciples present secretly nod.

There were no traces of battle evident around.

This place is within Patrol Hunting Dao’s territory, there should be no foolish cultivators running here to slaughter their disciples.

The middle-aged man from the Purple Mansion said nothing.

His gaze swept across the sea below, and then with a sudden wave of his hand, he turned all the sea beasts fighting for blood food into blood mist, sweeping his powerful divine sense across the sea, then solemnly said: “They did not die from the mouths of sea beasts.”

Beside him, the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall heard this and were all puzzled.

The middle-aged man from the Purple Mansion sneered: “The person took action very cautiously, deliberately using the blood energy of the three corpses to attract a large number of sea demons to disrupt the energy.”

“But his greed still exposed a flaw.”

The middle-aged man continued facing the disciples: “These sea demons do not have the magical artifacts, treasures, or storage bags of the three.”

Upon these words, the disciples understood instantly.

Killing to seize treasures, using the chaotic energy caused by sea demon fighting, is a common tactic used by loose cultivators roaming the Outer Sea Region.

“These loose cultivators are becoming increasingly audacious, daring to openly slaughter our Patrol Hunting Dao disciples within our territory…”

After sneering, the middle-aged man from the Purple Mansion immediately formed formulas and sent a spirit light into the copper mirror in his hand.

The surface of the copper mirror instantly bloomed with dazzling golden light.

A moment later, the mirror’s golden light projected an image, showing a figure in a profound black robe with golden patterns sitting cross-legged.

“Hu Qiu?”

“What disturbs my peaceful cultivation?”

A deep voice sounded, and Hu Qiu, the middle-aged man from the Purple Mansion, along with the disciples respectfully cupped their hands.

“Hall Master…”

Hu Qiu respectfully explained the situation in detail.

“The energy here is chaotic, the Heaven Mysterious Mirror has lost its function, we must trouble the Hall Master to intervene personally.”

Upon hearing this, the elder in the profound robe in the image pondered for a moment, then sneered: “Perhaps the weakness shown by our Patrol Hunting Dao in the past few hundred years has made some think we’re done.”

“Good, this time let those with malicious intent know that we, the Patrol Hunting Dao, are still the masters of the Fengshui Realm, the rulers of the thirty-thousand-li sea area!”

As the profound robe elder finished speaking, the void before Hu Qiu and others distorted.

Then, in the image projected by the copper mirror, the profound robe elder stood up, waved his hand, tore open the space before him, stepped through, directly appearing before them.

“Greetings, Hall Master!”

Hu Qiu and the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall looked at the profound robe elder before them and quickly cupped their hands respectfully.

The profound robe elder nodded slightly, then waved his hand to capture the copper mirror in his hand.

Surging spiritual power mixed with a mysterious power of laws flowed through the void across a hundred miles.

Strange traces of energy slowly emerged in the surrounding void, quickly entering the copper mirror.

As these strange energies gathered in the copper mirror, a blurry scene began to appear on the surface.

The scene shown was Shen Chongming battling the three.

“The three from Zhonghe Hall were indeed slain!”

“Judging by this person’s actions, he is a Purple Mansion cultivator skilled in water attribute techniques!”

A disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall noticed Shen Chongming using a single water arrow to easily kill three Golden Core late-stage cultivators in the image, and couldn’t help but mutter.

The profound robe elder glanced at the image on the copper mirror, then sneered: “This person used a secret skill to change his appearance, even his aura and spirit root have been disguised.”

“However, such methods cannot escape my scrutiny.”

“No matter the changes, the death of our three Patrol Hunting Dao disciples by your hand retains its cause and effect.”
