Chapter 0832: Replica

After Li Qingfeng, Li Luo, and the other Banner Leaders entered the water palace, the atmosphere in the viewing platform outside the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool changed.

Although the faces of the guests remained largely unfazed, there were many gazes thrown towards Qin Zhiming and Qin Lian from time to time.

At times, they would also look towards the five Lineage Chiefs from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Nonetheless, the five chiefs were unfathomable. There was neither joy nor anger seen on their faces. On the other hand, the elders below the five chiefs were showing slight signs of frustration as they watched on.

No one had expected Qin Yi to act in such a domineering manner.

If she had gone straight for the Golden Dragon Pillar, they would have understood why. However, she had not. Instead, she had created this nonsensical water palace that enveloped all six Coiling Dragon Pillars. She was clearly not leaving any face for the younger generation of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages and challenging them to an outright showdown here. Furthermore, she was declaring such a fight with all the Banner Leaders with just her strength alone.

Qin Yi would not come out looking like a loser no matter how one looked at it. After all, no one would say that she was too proud even if she was defeated, as she was facing off against the best of the best in this generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Rather, they would praise her for her courageous attempt.

On the other hand, if Li Qingfeng and the other Banner Leaders were unable to conquer this Spiritual Water Mirror Palace of hers, that would spell great trouble for them.

Everyone in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent would laugh at this generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li once the news got out. How could they all be stopped by a single girl like Qin Yi in the dragonbreath pool to the extent that they did not even get to touch a Coiling Dragon Pillar?

Such a ridiculous result would surely nail all the youths involved onto the pillar of shame.

Despite her beautiful appearance, Qin Yi was truly ruthless when she struck. Of course, this could have been instructions from her mother.

After all, such an oppressive approach to things was totally Qin Lian's style.

As the guests watched on with strange looks on their faces, the Hall Master of the Dragon's Fang Lineage's Crimson Cloud Hall, Li Jinpan, laughed out coldly. "A good banquet ruined by a malicious guest."

The five Lineage Chiefs naturally did not comment, as they were of a special status. However, the elders below them, especially those who were already dissatisfied with Qin Lian, could not help but reveal their frustrations on their faces.

In response, Qin Lian merely cast a glance at Li Jinpan as she replied indifferently, "It's just an exchange between the juniors, so there is no need to be so uptight, right? What's more, my girl is just a mere lady facing off against all these Banner Leaders from your respectable bloodline. Surely you aren't worried that all these people can't clear the Spiritual Water Mirror Palace from my daughter, right? If that is really the case, I think you should thank me instead. I have revealed the flawed foundations of these little guys, and you can train them better in the future."

When the elders of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages heard this, they were infuriated. Their faces were bursting with rage, but they had to keep it contained in respect for the special occasion.

Meanwhile, Qin Zhiming's eyes drooped slightly as if he was falling asleep.

However, everyone knew this was just an act by him. How would Qin Lian dare to rebut in this manner without his permission?

Moreover, the five Lineage Chiefs of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li had not mentioned anything. They simply looked into the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool with gazes that pierced the thick mist.

Since things had already developed to such an extent, it was useless to criticize Qin Lian any further. She was clearly out to get revenge for the matter that happened years ago. However, she was smart enough to keep it within the younger generation and not escalate things any further.

As such, not even the five Lineage Chiefs would forcefully stop the battle in the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool now. After all, they had so many people from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li against one Qin Yi. If news got out that they did not dare to accept the challenge despite their perceived advantage, it would be even more damaging to their reputation.

Therefore, they could only let the younger generation sort this out now.

……

When Li Qingfeng stepped into the water palace, he immediately noticed his surroundings change. He seemed to have appeared in a wide, spacious, and crystal-clear square that was dazzling, with light reflecting everywhere.

He frowned a little when he noticed that Lu Qingmei and the others were no longer around even though they had entered. Without a doubt, the palace was intentionally splitting them up.

"Want to take us down one by one?" Li Qingfeng said to himself. The water palace was special, because it created a world space that separated the people that had entered.

However, was Qin Yi thinking of trapping them here with just this?

At this moment, Li Qingfeng stretched out both of his hands, and resonant power gathered in his palms. Two swords appeared in his hands and a majestic and tyrannical force surged in his body. All of a sudden, the crystal-clear square started to tremble slightly.

When Li Qingfeng waved his blades, two blade lights that seemed to resemble a dragon flew towards some crystal pillars in the clear square.

Boom!

The void twisted and trembled under the immense force of the slashes. However, the crystal pillars were not shattered by the domineering attacks. Rather, countless rays of lights shot out from the pillars.

There was a slow, howling roar across the sky, and the rays of light converged in front of Li Qingfeng.

After a few moments, the lights condensed and a figure emerged in front of him.

Li Qingfeng squinted when he saw the figure that had emerged. This figure looked exactly like him!

It was another Li Qingfeng!

Li Qingfeng was taken aback and frowned at this sight. "Is this the Duke Art Replicating Water Mirror Art?" he muttered to himself.

He had heard that this water type Duke Art was able to mimic one's appearance and attacks. Furthermore, the copied product contained a portion of the real one's strength.

Nonetheless, did Qin Yi think that such a pathetic copy was sufficient to hold them down?

A blue light flashed across Li Qingfeng's eyes. He stepped forward, accompanied by the whizzing whistle of the wind. In the next moment, he appeared in front of his clone like a teleporting ghost. He then slashed apart the void with a single strike with the wildly raging wind blades on his arm, intending to separate the clone's head from its body.

Just as Li Qingfeng's blades were about to strike the clone, similar blade lights from the clone came forth to intercept, and they clashed directly.

Clang!

The crisp sound of gold and iron sounded in the air. Sparks flew, the void vibrated, and the sound of a sonic boom rolled.

Li Qingfeng could not help but squint again at this moment.

He now realized that the clone in front of him was no weaker than himself.

He had not gained any advantage at all in the previous exchange.

"How could this be..."

Li Qingfeng's heart trembled while his pupils reflected the extremely familiar face in front of him. How could this clone from Qin Yi have the same power as the real him?!

At the same moment, the other Banner Leaders that had stepped into the Spiritual Water Mirror Palace had come to face the same problem as Li Qingfeng.

They were all matched up against a clone of themselves that had similar strength as them.

All of a sudden, the Banner Leaders were thrown into an intense fight with themselves.

All except Li Luo.

In the same crystal-clear square, Li Luo was strolling around, studying the crystal pillars in the surrounding area. He pondered over the many light rays that were reflected in the square, but he had not launched an attack immediately like the other Banner Leaders.

After all, he was familiar with such a method.

"What a delicate display of water resonant power."

After observing for a while, Li Luo couldn't help but sigh. Among the six primary and secondary resonances in him, if there was one he had a particularly deep familiarity of, it would surely be the water resonance.

After all, that was his first acquired resonance. He had conquered all the challenges and entered the Astral Sage College all thanks to his waterlight resonance.

"Miss Qin Yi, your Spiritual Water Mirror Palace must have been constructed with water resonant power and a special formation, right? If I am not wrong, this must possess reflection and copying abilities. If anyone tries to break through it forcefully with resonant power, it will copy that person's resonant power. If you possessed such confidence in holding down all the Banner Leaders with this, I believe this ability must have been enhanced to a very high level with the assistance of the special formation, right?"

Li Luo's low voice echoed in the vast, empty square.

He continued as a smile surfaced on his face, "Mimicry created through water resonant power is strong if the opponent is strong. Weak if the opponent is weak. Non-existent if the opponent does not move. Therefore..."

Without summong any resonant power within him, Li Luo sat down cross-legged in his original spot as he watched a crystal pillar in front of him with a bright smile.

"How are you planning to deal with me?"

Silence followed in the crystal-clear square as there was no movement for a while.

At the same time, there was no sign of any clone of Li Luo either.

Seeing this, Li Luo smiled even wider.

"Sigh."

At this moment, a soft sigh echoed in the square. Following this, Li Luo noticed a charming figure appear in the crystal pillar in front of him, and she slowly walked out.

After a few breaths, she materialized in the flesh as if fiction had turned into reality.

The brilliance in Qin Yi's charming eyes glowed and her beautiful, jade face was even prettier under the dazzling reflection of the crystal. She lightly pursed her petal-like, red lips and said with a voice as clear as a stream, "How insightful, Banner Leader Li Luo. You really don't look like someone who has spent a lot of time in an outer divine continent. However, since it is impossible to create a copy using you as a template, then..." She smiled sweetly with a still indifference in her clear eyes.

"Let me send you out personally."
