This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Chapter 478: [Surprising Grace Mirroring Shadow in Cloud Attire] [Talisman of the Sea and Universe]


"A vestment robe woven with shadows, this should make a fine gift for junior sister!"

Liang Yi flipped through the pages, his eyes lit up suddenly as he saw the introduction on one particular page.

"It's crafted from the purest white clouds at the summit of Cloud Mountain, integrated with the soul of the Innate Divine Bird, Startling Swan. Ultimately, a Daoist Immortal personally applied the unique Image Retention Technique onto the fabric in the pattern of vestment robes..."

Liang Yi read out bit by bit the description about the 'Startling Swan Shadow-Woven Cloud Robe' from the page.

He had heard about Cloud Mountain, which seemed to be an extremely special secret realm. The clouds inside were the most precious condensation of moisture in heaven and earth. Their miraculous nature varied according to the different properties of the moisture.

For any Daoist Practitioner specifically adept in cloud-related techniques, being able to enter it once was an incredible fortune.

Every cloud within was a rare treasure of nature and heaven, and the more precious ones were almost of the same caliber as Ancestor Thunder, invaluable whether used to refine for combat or to enhance one's own cultivation.

To Liang Yi's knowledge, the Purple Mist Divine Radiance that had been passed down for countless years within him from the Purple Cloud Sect, originated from a cloud cluster found in the Cloud Mountain secret realm by a Sect Master, reflecting the entire sky's twilight.

That Sect Master didn't take the entire cloud cluster, he merely extracted the twilight from it, which is now the Purple Mist Divine Radiance within Liang Yi.

The very name 'Summit of Cloud Mountain' suggests it is at the very heart of the Cloud Mountain secret realm. The purest white cloud taken from there as material for making robes must be extraordinary.

"Startling Swan from ancient times..."

Liang Yi knew very little about it, only that it was an exquisitely graceful and elusive divine bird. It was said in the Cultivation World that if one could see the true form of the Startling Swan, they would be blessed with good luck that day.

"So the soul of Startling Swan is the Artifact Spirit of this vestment robe?"

As for the Image Retention Technique mentioned lastly, Liang Yi had never heard of it; it must be a unique creation from the Daoist Immortal. But judging from the various wondrous effects of the robe, Liang Yi could more or less guess the purpose of the Image Retention Technique.

The white clouds from the summit of Cloud Mountain provided the vestment robe with an unparalleled defensive power, making it difficult for even a Seventh Realm Cultivator to tear a hole in it. The Startling Swan's soul could greatly enhance the wearer's speed, moving so fluidly and deftly as if divine assistance was provided. Furthermore, due to the presence of Startling Swan's spirit, it could slightly affect something as elusive as luck.

The lastly embedded Image Retention Technique is a Daoist Skill that the Daoist Immortal personally inscribed into the fabric for anyone to use.

The captivating aspect of the Image Retention Technique is that it could perfectly copy any moves or Daoist Skills presented towards it, without any cost for usage.

What astounded Liang Yi even more was that theoretically, as long as an attack doesn't surpass the realm of a Daoist Immortal, the robe could replicate it, whether it be an attack based on Daoist Laws or something else.

It could replicate an opponent's killing move during perilous times, allow the wearer to double their own killing technique, or even replicate a lifesaving Daoist Skill in advance.

Liang Yi only had to ponder briefly to realize the countless applications of this vestment robe.

The stronger the power captured by the Image Retention Technique, the longer the delay before the next use of the technique, but this did not detract from the robe being an exceptionally badass piece of gear.

"This is truly... overwhelmingly powerful."

Liang Yi's throat bobbed slightly; the garment's might surpassed anything he had seen before, making it a priceless heirloom should it be placed within any Super Force.

Displayed on the panel, the vestment robe was of first-grade golden quality, the most powerful he had ever seen. Only a robe of such caliber, Liang Yi felt, would be worthy of his junior sister.

But beyond the robe's wondrous attributes, its appearance and aesthetic value were the main reasons it caught Liang Yi's eye among many treasures.

The vestment robe was clearly designed for women, with white as its base color, and cloud motifs adorned the sleeve cuffs. Golden patterns of the divine bird in a singing and wing-flapping posture embellished the back and front, lifelike to the point of awe. Around the waist were patterns of the Image Retention Technique, mysterious and elegant.

Speaking of vestment robe designs, Liang Yi had seen plenty of stunning robes designed by players in his previous life; after all, of the millions of game players, at least half were female. As creatures naturally attuned to beauty, they would subconsciously pursue aesthetics.

With demand, of course, came supply, and the robes crafted by players were one more celestial than the next.

But a perfect vestment robe like the Startling Swan Shadow-Woven Cloud Robe, more akin to a masterpiece penned by a master designer, was something Liang Yi was seeing for the first time.

"Is this a token of appreciation for the Daoist Immortal's help, gifted by a friend?"

Liang Yi scratched his head as he looked at the last few sentences in the book, somewhat perplexed.

Isn't this a woman's outfit? Isn't the Daoist Immortal a man? Could it be...

"This mustn't be overthought."

Liang Yi quickly shook his head, discarding a particularly bold idea from his mind, and immediately extended his hand to infuse a wisp of Endless Dao's essence into it, marking this item as his selection.

"Uh... There's also this."

Flipping through a few more pages casually, Liang Yi's hand suddenly paused.

"Now that junior sister has the Lovesick Sword and the Startling Swan Shadow-Woven Cloud Robe, she can be considered well-rounded in both offense and defense. With these enhancements, she could probably hold her own against a late Seventh Realm Cultivator."
