The white Qi on Lu Jin’s body dissipated, and he collapsed to the ground, holding Luo Huan in his arms.
The hope of the Trinity, the rising hope of Reverse Life Triple, had died right before his eyes!
Pain, unbearable pain.
He looked at Luo Huan in his arms, unable even to make a crying expression, his whole face twisted up.
Zhang Zhiwei, who had cast the Golden Light Spell to enshroud Luo Huan's location, also sensed the Qi that had completely vanished.
He silently withdrew the Golden Light Spell and let out a faint sigh.
Looking at Lu Jin, frozen in place, he opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.
“She, is she…”
Everyone craned their necks, wanting to know what had just happened.
Everyone present was either a well-known expert in the world of the different-powered or a young person of exceptional talent.
To some extent, they could all sense Qi.
With the Old Heavenly Master’s Golden Light Spell withdrawn, within just a few breaths, everyone present sensed it.
This newly risen genius, the one who made Lu Jin humble himself to invite everyone under the heavens to a banquet, had no trace of aura!
Liu Xingyang of the Quanzhen Sect even had his soul leave his body and fly over, using a special soul-to-soul perception to verify if he had sensed it wrong.
But unfortunately.
It was just like that.
Even Luo Huan’s soul had vanished!
For a moment, the atmosphere completely froze.
The joyful banquet turned into a funeral in an instant.
“That is!”
In the next moment, a massive surge of Qi erupted from Luo Huan’s body.
The Qi above her head formed into a pair of cat ears, and eight tails took shape at her tailbone.
A surge of blue flames emerged from her skin, encasing her body in layers.
Her tightly shut eyes opened once again!
Then!
Whoosh~
A wave of hot wind brushed across Lu Jin’s face,
And swept over the faces of everyone present as well.
Luo Huan’s figure vanished!
Only her clothes collapsed limply in Lu Jin’s hands.
Before anyone could process it, another gust of wind rose from nowhere.
It made the clothes in Lu Jin’s hands billow.
“This is…”
Lu Jin seemed to realize something and released his grip.
Sure enough, the clothes were lifted by the wind and stood upright in the air.
A mass of white Qi suddenly appeared in the air, then rapidly expanded like a proliferating entity.
It quickly filled the entire set of clothes!
Then it slowly gathered and solidified.
A white-haired girl appeared once again.
It was unmistakably Luo Huan, who should have died and disappeared!
She was now floating in mid-air, unsupported by anything.
Her arms spread naturally, and the sun high above was directly behind her, making her look like a descending deity!
In that moment, everyone was stunned.
“Did it work?”
Lu Jin looked up, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
Looking at Luo Huan floating in the air, Lu Jin seemed to see someone else—his mentor, Zuo Ruotong.
“Yes, it worked.”
Luo Huan floated down and spoke.
Just as she was about to turn and say something, the cat ears and tails appeared again, but this time there were nine tails.
Then.
The white Qi on her body once again dissipated, and her body slumped.
The invincible Luo Huan collapsed once more.
“Hahaha, it’s fine, hahaha, it worked!”
“Old Niu, Brother Fan, come help me!”
Surging with white Qi, Lu Jin once again caught Luo Huan, sensing the weakened yet undeniably stable flow of Qi emanating from her.
He burst into laughter and carried Luo Huan back into the house.
Niu Deshan, the head of Jishi Hall, and Duanmu Fan, the head of the Duanmu family—renowned in the medical world—glanced at each other.
They hurried in one after the other, full of delight.
This was truly a unique case! They had to hurry up and see what was going on!
Even the two disciples they had brought along were dragged in immediately.
Other sects specializing in medicine and healing quickly followed after seeing this.
Even if they couldn't lend a hand, observing how others dealt with it would be good enough!
This was an unprecedented ascension, after all!
And with Lu Jin and the physicians gone, everyone immediately buzzed with excitement.
“Who would've thought, Old Lu didn't make it, but this little girl did!”
Lü Ci expressed that today had given him more shocks than he could handle.
Decades ago, he had heard rumors that the Daying Immortal of the Trinity Mystic Sect had ascended, but he hadn’t believed it, assuming it was just another twisted tale.
Back then, he had scoffed at it.
But who would've thought—this boomerang came back after decades.
Today, he had truly witnessed the Reverse Life Triple become real!
Although it wasn’t quite as exaggerated as the legends, the very act of forming Qi into a body from nothing was enough to be called an immortal's art!
For a moment, even his painstakingly acquired and heritable "Perfect Dual Hands" technique didn’t feel so impressive anymore.
“This Reverse Life Triple really is that outrageous, but that girl still hides secrets.”
Wang Ai also knew of the Reverse Life Triple. Though dazzling and indeed powerful, what caught his attention was something else.
It was Luo Huan, who had clearly lost all life signs, yet suddenly burst into blue flames, sprouted cat ears and eight tails, and then revived.
That was the truly terrifying part.
And though he was old, his vision was still sharp—right before Luo Huan collapsed, she had nine tails behind her!
Could it be!
Others of the same generation whispered among themselves.
Xu San and Gao Lian were already standing to the side.
Xu San smoked one cigarette after another, his ever-smiling face now scrunched like a turtle’s.
And Gao Lian wasn’t faring any better.
After all, they were company representatives—but how the hell were they supposed to write this report?
Were they supposed to write that they came to attend a Lu Family banquet, and then Lu Jin’s newly accepted disciple ascended into a terrestrial immortal?
“Screw it, just send up the report and let the higher-ups deal with it.”
Meanwhile, two blue-haired individuals beside them had blue lights flashing in their eyes.
“Dad, did you see her?”
Zhuge Qing spat out blood and looked at his father, who was still using the Qimen Manifestation Heart Technique, and asked.
After a moment, his father also coughed up a mouthful of blood and shook his head in disbelief.
“No, but how is that even possible?”
In that instant, he doubted everything he had ever learned.
Just now, within his inner realm, he had used the Qimen Manifestation Heart Technique to query it, but the inner realm gave no response.
As if, from the moment Luo Huan succeeded, she was no longer a part of the inner realm.
But that was simply impossible.
Other families and sects that practiced mystical arts also began using their own techniques and discovered the same thing.
All wore expressions of disbelief.
It was downright inconceivable!
Wang Bing’s face turned pitch-black.
He seemed to remember that he had just challenged an unthinkably formidable being.
Me, an ordinary, unlearned, and naturally harmless heir of the Wang family, challenged a newly ascended terrestrial immortal?
No way, right?
Wasn’t he about to get smashed into a crushed bean strip like Kun Tiaowu?
