After receiving Fuji's notification, Lily and Chen Qin, the two girls, took the Teleportation Array (secretly dug out by Lily) and quickly returned to the Thousand chanism Pavilion.
However, when they arrived at the place Fuji ntioned in the back mountain, they found sothing was off about the atmosphere.
Tang was sitting on the ground looking aggrieved, supporting himself with one hand and covering his face with the other, like a wronged old woman.
And Chen Qin's mother, Ms. Mo, was standing innocently to the side, holding the tree branch-like Divine Sword, Jiu Ke, and looking up at the damp cave ceiling.
"What happened here?" Lily asked.
"Aunt Mo hit the Taoist," Fuji replied.
"Mom, why did you hit the Taoist?" Chen Qin asked her mother.
However, it wasn't Mo Jingchun who answered her but the sealed fragnt of the Human Emperor Banner.
A cackling laugh ca from the fragnt, and 'Old Tang's' voice echoed from within.
"Of course, it's jealousy, jealous that this Taoist glimpsed the Great Dao, jealous that this Taoist found immortality! You nasty woman!"
The real Tang felt even more wronged as he listened to the voice coming from the Human Emperor Banner. He looked at Mo Jingchun and said, "He barks like a dog; you should hit him, not !"
"Cackling, cackling, because I am you, and you are , co on, co in..."
The Human Emperor Banner emitted another burst of eerie laughter.
"Alright, alright, it was just a swipe with this branch, wasn't it? Acting in front of my daughter at your age, aren't you ashad."
After Mo Jingchun said that, as the 'Old Tang' in the Human Emperor Banner was about to speak rudely again, she pointed a finger and wrapped the banner fragnt with Clear Qi, and the other Old Tang's voice ca to an abrupt halt.
"After Fuji sent this thing over, the Taoist couldn't resist; seeing no activity from the Human Emperor Banner, he went up and touched it, and then the fragnt quivered, and it ended up like this."
Mo Jingchun explained to her daughter, "At the ti, I thought Old Tang had been bewitched by the Human Emperor Banner, so I used this calming tree branch to give him a light tap..."
"You an, half of the Taoist's soul was drawn into that Human Emperor Banner?"
Lily cowardly stepped away from the Human Emperor Banner fragnt.
"Not quite." The amused Old Tang got up from the ground, patted the dust off his Taoist Robe, and said, "I don't exactly know the details, but if I had to describe my experience, it felt like I just looked in a mirror."
"A mirror?" Lily didn't understand.
"Yes, a mirror, except the person in the mirror started moving and cursing." Tang said.
"Are you saying that now this Human Emperor Banner fragnt, though missing its power of enchantnt, duplicates a shadow of whoever touches it?
"Though this 'shadow' can exist inside the Human Emperor Banner and communicate with the outside world, it cannot leave?" Lily summarized with her hand raised.
"More or less," Tang nodded.
"So, what do we do now? Do we have to chat with that 'Old Tang' inside the banner to find out what's going on in there?" Lily asked.
"Communication is useless. I've already tried; that '' is a lunatic, only capable of cursing," Tang sneered, sowhat speechless. "I got you here to see if you have any crazy ideas to get rid of that '.' After all, leaving it in there is bound to be a hassle."
Lily thought for a mont and then spoke, "You know, I might have a solution."
"What solution?" Tang asked.
"Blow it up," Lily said without hesitation.
Tang, "..."
After Lily spoke, everyone looked at her with strange expressions. While there was nothing wrong with the thod, it was very much like Lily.
However, she seed to have a point; the chaotic sounds in the fragnt were entirely cleared away by the explosion from Lily and Fuji's failed experint.
Except, looking at the current state of the fragnt, it might not withstand a second explosion.
This special sample is hard to co by and it would be a pity to destroy it.
Seeing no one responding to her rotten idea, Lily quietly stood aside, pretending to think of a solution, when in fact, she was calculating the yield in her mind.
But then Junior Sister suddenly had an idea. She raised her hand.
"Since the Human Emperor Banner and the Jade Book Illusion Realm's core are essentially the sa kind of thing, couldn't we use the thod for dealing with the Jade Book Tower to deal with this fragnt and the fake Taoist inside it?"
"What do you an?" Mo Jingchun asked her daughter.
"The second ti I entered the Jade Book Illusion Realm, I exchanged information with Senior Brother. When the Jade Book Tower was smoking and about to catch fire, Senior Brother was in the Illusion Realm riding the Flying Ship," Chen Qin answered.
"Senior Brother speculated that the reason the Jade Book Tower malfunctioned was that the evolution speed of the illusion inside exceeded its capacity."
"How did Senior Brother phrase it again? Let think... ah yes, it was called an overclocking failure, system crash, automatic shutdown, and format restart."
"So, to get rid of the Taoist in this fragnt, we just need to overclock the system again and let it shut down automatically, right?"
After hearing this, Lily shook her head, "The logic is there, but this thing is clearly broken, otherwise it wouldn't indiscriminately duplicate anyone who touches it.
"Now, even with the Jade Book Tower's Array, I don't think you can control it to 'format' it."
"It's 'format,'" Chen Qin corrected.
"Whatever, it's all made-up words from the boss; if you ask , just blow this thing up.
"Last ti the explosion wasn't big enough... I an, it's a rare opportunity to collect so data; it can count as scrap utilization."
