Two days later.
In the misty morning fog, a man and a woman walked out of the valley side by side.
"Brother Luo, where are we heading?"
"Once we arrive, you’ll know. I promise it won’t harm you."
"Haha, I’m not worried about that, brother."
"There’s another matter I need to discuss with you first."
"What is it?"
"At that ti, I’ll need you to guard an Array for to prevent it from being destroyed. If soone does manage to break it, you must inform beforehand to avoid entering the Array unaware."
"What kind of Array is so important?"
"Let’s check out the Triple Rainbow Falls first; I haven’t entirely decided yet."
Their voices trailed off into the fog.
After a day and night, with the rainbow still visible from a far distance, they finally stopped in their tracks.
Standing atop a high mountain, Fu Qinglan gazed at the distant waterfall, which cascaded in three silver layers, and showed an expression of puzzlent.
There wasn’t a detailed map of the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven.
Because every entry typically happened five hundred years apart.
Five hundred years of changing landscapes and the existence of destructive creatures like Illusion Beasts ant that every ti the Cave Heaven Competition occurred, the mountains, rivers, and lands inside transford substantially.
Thus, even though the various clans of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect had participated in several Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven Competitions, their knowledge of the terrain inside was still limited.
They even believed that the changes in topography had no pattern at all, driven by the instinctive remnants of the Mirage Dragon’s dead body.
The waterfall, nad Triple Rainbow Falls, was simply a na Luo Chen had given it while passing by.
Who knows if that waterfall existed during the last five hundred years?
But truth be told, Luo Chen’s naming was quite fitting!
The magnificent waterfall poured down in abundance, divided into three slanting sections due to the mountain’s contours.
Each section flowed like a ribbon.
Under the sunlight, each rippled and reflected a spectrum of crystal-clear rainbow hues.
Triple Rainbow Falls indeed lived up to its na, magnificently beautiful.
As Fu Qinglan wondered why they had co here and why they hadn’t approached the Triple Rainbow Falls, Luo Chen’s voice reached her ears.
"After twenty years of continuous cultivation using Illusion Cores and absorbing abundant Spirit chanism, you should be familiar with that feeling. Now, why not release your Nascent Soul avatar to sense it?"
Fu Qinglan obeyed and did as instructed!
A white-skinned, delicate-handed and footed baby flew out from above her head.
Such an action would be shockingly reckless in the Outer World.
Even in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, exposing one’s Nascent Soul so blatantly would be seen as reckless.
But the person beside her was Luo Chen!
Fu Qinglan felt no distress or precaution and followed his words implicitly.
A mont later, the Nascent Soul returned, and Fu Qinglan’s face revealed surprise.
"There’s a lot of Spirit chanism lingering over there, could there be a very powerful fourth-order magical beast?"
It was overwhelmingly rich, even detectable from such a distance.
Luo Chen laughed and shook his head, "No matter how strong a fourth-order magical beast is, the Illusion Core would constrain it; the Spirit chanism wouldn’t leak like this. Think again."
"Why not just say it directly instead of beating around the bush?" Fu Qinglan gave Luo Chen a sideways glance but did indeed think carefully.
After so ticulous pondering, she gradually got the gist, sowhat astonished and uncertain.
"Is soone over there perceiving the Law’s True Intent?"
"Exactly!"
Luo Chen nodded emphatically, his smile gradually fading.
"Perhaps you are imrsed in the mountains, oblivious to their form. These years, I’ve been guarding you on the side, watching clearly. When absorbing Illusion Cores for cultivation, the Spirit chanism inside would linger around until completely depleted."
Fu Qinglan understood Luo Chen’s implications, but the other information his words revealed shocked her even more:
"Can you see the Spirit chanism?"
Luo Chen didn’t explain but continued with his prior point, "However, the Spirit chanism from just one or two Illusion Cores wouldn’t be this abundant. There’s only one explanation for the spectacular phenonon at Triple Rainbow Falls!"
Luo Chen’s expression turned serious, "That’s due to the person cultivating inside the waterfall who has entered a state of Sudden Enlightennt, actively drawing the Spirit chanism of heaven and earth toward him!"
Fu Qinglan’s expression changed dramatically!
Spirit chanism is omnipresent yet elusive.
It typically gathers massively during a cultivator’s Sudden Enlightennt or Ascension.
And in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, Spirit chanism is solidified within Illusion Cores for the Tianyuan True Disciples to absorb and refine.
Such an occurrence alone is enough to shock people.
But right now, there exists soone who not only absorbed the Spirit chanism from Illusion Cores but even entered a state of Sudden Enlightennt... undoubtedly, this is one of the thirteen Senior Brothers or Sisters.
Moreover, once he concludes this Sudden Enlightennt, he might find the Origin Power in one fell swoop!
By then, the victor of this competition will be indisputable!
So, who could it be?
"It’s Gu Daosu, the brother of Renowned Dao Yin and the Qilin’er of the current generation of the Gu Family among the Twelve Great Houses."
Luo Chen casually ntioned the hidden cultivator within Triple Rainbow Falls.
As to how he knew?
It’s quite simple.
As ntioned before, when these Tianyuan True Disciples use Illusion Cores for cultivation, there would be a slight amount of Spirit chanism lingering around. Outsiders wouldn’t discern it deeply, even Luo Chen would need to employ Origin Force to perceive it slightly, but in this realm, Illusion Beasts are extrely sensitive to such Spirit chanism presence!
If one continually absorbs Illusion Beasts for cultivation, it’s highly likely to attract attacks from high-order Illusory Beasts.
This is one of the reasons Protectors exist, to prevent Illusion Beasts from interrupting Tianyuan True Disciples as they perceive Law’s True Intent.
