Chapter 1078: Lin Pheng's Reflection

"Emperor, I need to ask you something important!" said Lin Pheng seriously.

Qiong Qi looked at Lin Pheng. What did that madman want now?

"Speak!"

"Do you know a cave with a waterfall at its mouth in the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit?" asked Lin Pheng.

Qiong Qi's eyes were suddenly wide open and twinkling. Of course he knew!

When Lin Pheng saw Qiong Qi's reaction, he understood that Qiong Qi knew.

"I just want to ask you one question." said Lin Pheng. Then, he said, "The godly awareness palace is associated to the phrase 'The Sky Palace, what's the date tonight', and a long time ago, an incredible cultivator fought against an ape emperor. He used to call a place the stone ape mountain and then the name changed to Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, isn't that the same person?"

"Roar!" Qiong Qi stood up as the energies oppressed him. He stared at Lin Pheng and said, "What did you learn?"

"As expected, it's the same person." thought Lin Pheng suddenly.

There couldn't be one thousand possibilities. How strange, the Continent of the Nine Clouds was such a strange world. Lin Pheng's analytical skills were incredible to have figured that out.

Lin Pheng was sure it was him!

"Do you know who it is?" asked Qiong Qi. Impossible, Lin Pheng couldn't know who such an incredible warrior was. A cultivator who could destroy the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

"I don't know. I just heard some mysterious stories!" said Lin Pheng. "Emperor, you're extremely strong, yet you don't even feel anything under such an oppressive strength."

Qiong Qi looked at Lin Pheng in a cruel way.

"boom!" Qiong Qi spat out flames towards Lin Pheng.

"Kacha!"

Lin Pheng dodged the attack and crawled again because of the oppressive energies. He rolled his eyes speechless. Wasn't this the palace where he lived? How could he live there?

"Little boy, good for you, you tried to oppress me in here!" said Qiong Qi laughing. At that moment, a sharp sword Qi moved towards Qiong Qi. Qiong Qi coughed and fell down.

"Who made me come out?" said Qiong Qi. It was almost better to be in the animal tower.

"I made you come out because I fear that you forgot the date tonight!" said Lin Pheng. Qiong Qi looked at him and said, "Do I need to know? There's no holy mark here. There are star, fire and wind energies as well as the force of the Earth and sky, they're quite simple, actually, they're the simplest. You must sense those energies. Now, make me go back into the animal tower. I need to rest."

"Are you serious?" Lin Pheng looked at the energies, perplexed. Could those energies be the simplest ones? How could they be so oppressive then?

"You need to learn slowly. You need to understand the mysteries of the explosive force of the Earth and sky. This palace can help you achieve that." said Qiong Qi in a despising way.

Lin Pheng smiled. Qiong Qi was helpful. He just couldn't speak in a friendly way sometimes.

"Let's go and see." said Lin Pheng. He was slowly getting used to the palace. He was curious to see what advantages he had access to after climbing up the nine groups of steps. He needed to get familiar with the surroundings first though.

Lin Pheng walked around and inspected the palace. The pressure made him feel as heavy as a mountain and his steps even made some loud bumping sounds.

He turned around and looked at Qiong Qi. Qiong Qi looked relaxed, it didn't seem difficult at all for him. How did he do that? was he using the force of the Earth and the sky to manage it? Maybe he was condensing it in his paws?

Very quickly, Lin Pheng managed to feel more relaxed as Qiong Qi was walking next to him.

They both walked next to each other as some fog emerged. It felt like a holy place, a fairyland, there was even more beauty than one should take in at that moment. There were lofty towers of Qi in the mist. What was it?

"What an awesome place. It's an emperor's territory!" thought Qiong Qi suddenly. He looked excited.

"Let's go and see." said Lin Pheng. Qiong Qi followed him, but then stopped and lied down nonchalantly. He seemed like he was waiting for something.

At that moment, Lin Pheng suddenly sensed something. The mist under his feet suddenly rose up and surrounded him. Very quickly, he was wrapped in a mysterious Qi.

In front of him, a silhouette appeared, it was exactly the same as him, he was staring at a mirror!

It couldn't be him though, but it looked exactly the same. It was the first time Lin Pheng saw himself so clearly.

"It's an illusion!"

Lin Pheng immediately understood that it was an illusion. That silhouette was another Lin Pheng.

"I wouldn't have thought that I'd need to face a copy of myself in here. I wonder if I'm strong in the illusion." thought Lin Pheng walking forwards. He condensed force in his feet, then he condensed strength and released it towards the illusion. However, the illusion didn't move at all. It looked like a statue.

"boom!" Lin Pheng attacked the illusion again. Qi and force started flowing furiously in the air.

The illusion remained motionless. Lin Pheng then punched the air in the direction of the mirror. He was captivated by this mystery. A terrifyingly oppressive strength crashed onto him. He could barely breathe from it.

"boom!" The same sound spread in the air. It was the same energies as those contained in Lin Pheng's punch. When Lin Pheng punched the mirror, the mirror punched him too.

"boom boom!" when Lin Pheng attacked the mirror, it attacked him too and it was very painful. His blood was boiling.

"How strong." Lin Pheng and his reflection in the mirror were seemingly fighting. The illusion in the mirror didn't wait for Lin Pheng to catch his breath and continued attacking him. Punches were now assaulting him endlessly.

"boom boom boom!" Lin Pheng continued being punched. His head was sore and he coughed up blood. He was propelled to the ground where he felt like he was going to be crushed by those attacks.

"How fucking strong!" swore Lin Pheng. He turned around and looked at Qiong Qi lying on the ground.

"He knows what illusion that is!" thought Lin Pheng.

"Little boy, cherish this opportunity. Those holy marks are mysterious and contain an explosive force which will help you on the path of cultivation. That mirror will teach you even more about the force of the Earth and sky. Why are you not satisfied? Someday, you'll be able to use and condense the force of the Earth and sky even better. When that time comes, you'll easily be able to defeat the person you are now!" said Qiong Qi nonchalantly. Lin Pheng was surprised but happy.

Lin Pheng stood up and shook his head, he was more determined than ever!
