Chapter 1068: Chapter 552: I, Xu Yan, will send the two of you to your deaths.

Xu Yan was sorting out the Domain Dao Rule, contemplating this ancient mountain in hopes of gaining some insights, when he suddenly opened his eyes and looked beyond the mountain.
A figure was approaching.
To his surprise, the woman coming closer seemed somewhat abnormal.
Like jade, as if transformed from beautiful jade stone.
Her face was exquisitely beautiful, as though meticulously sculpted, with every detail just right, as if shaped by a master jade carver who poured countless efforts into crafting it.
She appeared to be a normal person, yet didn’t quite seem like a normal one.
“Someone from the Imperishable Temple? Doesn’t seem likely!”
Xu Yan was puzzled, those from the Imperishable Temple had a dark and gloomy aura, lacking a certain yang energy, making them easily distinguishable.
But this woman lacked the aura of the Imperishable Temple.
Nor did she have the aura of the living beings of the Domain.
“Could she be a special True Spirit?”
Xu Yan couldn’t help but suspect that the woman, despite her humanoid appearance, was actually a special True Spirit from the Land of Imperishable.
After all, True Spirits were numerous, and some unique special True Spirits did exist.
“Imperishable True Spirits don’t have Spiritual Wisdom. This woman has wisdom and can’t possibly be an Imperishable True Spirit that has somehow gained Spiritual Wisdom, right when I happen to encounter her?”
Xu Yan’s curiosity grew.
Although the woman had wisdom, she also gave the impression of a sluggish mind, as if her Spiritual Wisdom had only recently awakened.
Yet, Xu Yan wondered, could an Imperishable True Spirit be this beautiful?
Moreover, she’s conveniently human in form!
The moment Xu Yan saw the woman, the phrase “beauty like jade” emerged in his mind, as if she were a delicately crafted piece of jade.
“Could there be someone beyond the Great Wilderness Domain and the Imperishable Temple?”
Xu Yan activated his Minor Heavenly Eye. To his surprise, under the Minor Heavenly Eye, all he saw was flawless white light, as if he’d seen flawless beautiful jade but couldn’t see through its essence.
Even the Minor Heavenly Eye couldn’t see through the core, leaving Xu Yan surprised.
The woman’s strength was merely at the Realm Master Level, while he was already in the Establishing Dao Realm. Normally, the strength of a Domain Master wouldn’t escape his Minor Heavenly Eye.
Yet, the woman at the Realm Master Level somehow eluded his sight.
The woman in his view emitted a pure, flawless white light, concealing her essence, and the Minor Heavenly Eye couldn’t penetrate it.
“Something’s off.”
Xu Yan lightly furrowed his brow.
“I need to see who she really is, or if she’s even human!”
Xu Yan sat atop the mountain, merging with it, seemingly becoming an unremarkable stone on the mountain as he quietly observed the woman.
“Enter my domain and I’ll know your essence.”
Xu Yan watched as the woman stepped into his domain of mountains and rivers.
In an instant, Xu Yan was somewhat shocked. When the woman stepped into the domain of mountains and rivers, it was as if a flawless white light entered the domain, enhancing the beauty of the mountains and rivers.@@novelbin@@
“Something’s amiss!”
Xu Yan increasingly felt the woman was unusual. The moment she entered the domain of mountains and rivers, it seemed like beautiful jade appeared in his domain.
“Not quite human.”
Xu Yan concluded at that moment, the woman was not a human known by common knowledge. Although she was shaped like a human and looked identical to one, she lacked the feeling of human flesh and blood.
“However, she’s not entirely not human either.”
Xu Yan found it increasingly perplexing.
Quietly watching the woman, the Way of Domain was sensing her, intending to discern her roots and possibly capture some of her aura, even replicate her abilities.
Yet, under the sensing of the Way of Domain, all Xu Yan could see was the pure, flawless light of jade.
The woman carefully walked within the minor domain, her eyes showing some signs of confusion, though her gaze reflected sluggishness, giving an impression of dullness.
She looked around, couldn’t help but pick up a stone from the ground, squeezing it to verify it was real, not fake. However, for some reason, this domain gave her a sense of unreality.
Slowly exploring the minor domain, seemingly searching for something, she moved cautiously, at times appearing dazed and clumsy when pondering.
Xu Yan too was bewildered, unable to see through the woman, even after she entered his Images of Domain.
It seemed she possessed some strong principle, preventing any probing. The principle was so mysterious it surpassed those borne by a Minor Domain Master.
“Strange, is she human or True Spirit? The Land of Imperishable indeed hides too many unknowns.”
Xu Yan sighed inwardly.
The woman’s strength was not great, yet she possessed some principle far beyond what her strength should entail, which was itself peculiar.
“Was this a shelter given to her by a powerful being?”
Xu Yan contemplated.
Could she have a treasure like a Jade Talisman given by a master?
However, the principle on the woman seemed rather inherent to her, not granted by an external force.
“Let’s test her. As long as she reveals her power, try and imprint it within the Images of Domain.”
Thinking of this, Xu Yan’s mind shifted, and suddenly, from beneath the mountain, a hundred-foot-long golden True Dragon rose with dragon might in a majestic flight, eyes full of awe-inspiring authority, looking down on the woman.
The woman suddenly halted her steps, a look of astonishment slowly appeared on her exquisite face.
She blinked, with an amazed and puzzled expression, staring at the golden True Dragon for a long while before slightly parting her lips to utter a clear, melodious sound, “True Dragon?”
Every move the woman made was watched by Xu Yan, leaving him with an indescribable feeling of oddity. Her slowness and dullness were akin to someone with a dim mind, with delayed reactions.
