The expression on Dao Hai Immortal Aunt could be described as shock, on her face, but such emotions rarely appeared.
In reality, her heart was surging with monstrous waves.
She greatly believed in prophetic spirit stones, especially the one in her hand.
This prophetic spirit stone was very special, coming from ancient times, left by a special disciple who was a prophecy master from that era.
Such treasures were extremely rare in the current martial cultivation world.
It could only prophesy one thing, but it was almost always accurate.
Back then, after accidentally learning that Nine Souls Heavenly River would face a great calamity, she had always wanted to find a way to withstand it and prepare everything in advance.
Later, she spent tremendous effort to find this prophetic spirit stone, then made a prophecy, asking if anyone could withstand the great calamity.
Afterwards, an infant’s image appeared on the prophetic spirit stone.
And that infant was precisely the disciple Dao Hai Immortal Aunt had just accepted, namely Wang Yuxian.
Thereafter, as Wang Yuxian grew, the shadow displayed on the prophetic spirit stone would constantly change accordingly.
Although it never fully revealed Wang Yuxian’s complete face, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt could still tell it was Wang Yuxian.
But there was one thing that initially puzzled her.
Normally, this kind of prophetic spirit stone could only prophesy once, and after succeeding, it would lose its power and turn into an ordinary stone.
Logically, since it had long ago prophesied that Wang Yuxian was the one to withstand the great calamity of Nine Souls Heavenly River, the prophetic spirit stone should have failed long before.
Yet years passed in a blink, Wang Yuxian had grown from an infant into one of the strongest juniors in Nine Souls Heavenly River, but the prophetic spirit stone still had not failed, its power remained.
Previously, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt guessed that the prophetic spirit stone had not failed yet because Wang Yuxian had not reached the strength to withstand the great calamity.
When she possessed that strength, the prophetic spirit stone would reveal her complete image, and that would be when the prophecy truly completed.
But now, the prophetic spirit stone in Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s hand had returned to the appearance of an ordinary stone.
Not only had the stone become normal, without a trace of special power or aura, the figure displayed on it had also disappeared.
This was just a stone, ordinary to the extreme.
Yet Dao Hai Immortal Aunt clearly remembered that before this, the prophetic spirit stone had shown a complete figure.
But that figure was not her genius disciple Wang Yuxian, but Chu Feng.
“How could this be?”
“Could it be that the great calamity of my Nine Souls Heavenly River still needs an outsider to withstand?”
“Does that Chu Feng truly have such ability?”
Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s eyes grew increasingly complex, tangled, even somewhat painful.
This was normal, the things she had firmly believed in all along suddenly made her realise she had believed wrongly, that kind of pain, probably only she understood.
But suddenly, all emotions on her face vanished, replaced by a faint smile.
This smile was very faint, but it was one of relief.
Crack.
The prophetic spirit stone in her hand was crushed to powder by her.
“Sister, perhaps you are right, prophecies are not that reliable.”
“In the martial cultivation world, it still depends on the individual.”
“My Lele will definitely be the strongest.”
“Not to mention the great calamity might not exist, even if it does, it will definitely be us master and disciple who withstand it.”
Looking at the prophetic spirit stone that had turned to powder, scattering around her palm, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt spoke softly.
She who had firmly believed in the prophetic spirit stone before now surprisingly did not believe it.
Perhaps she had never truly believed in the prophetic spirit stone that much, she just firmly believed in what she hoped would happen.
“Heh…”
But at this moment, a light laugh came from within this room.
Hearing this light laugh, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s nerves immediately tensed, then she shouted loudly:
“Who is it?”
As these words came out, her sensing power was released.
That not only covered this house, but instantly covered the entire Dao Hai.
At this moment, everything in Dao Hai, she could clearly sense.
Even her sister who had left, she could sense, although her sister had left, she had not yet left the Dao Hai spiritual domain.
But she could not sense the owner of that voice just now.
In just this instant, it made Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s brows furrow tightly, and even on her face, some cold sweat surprisingly emerged.
That was a look of fear, though not particularly obvious, but she was still afraid.
The famous Dao Hai Immortal Aunt actually showed a fearful expression.
Dao Hai Immortal Aunt was extremely confident in her own strength.
After all, in what realm she was, only she herself knew.
Her cultivation had long reached the pinnacle.
And regarding that light laugh just now, she could confirm two things.
First, that light laugh came from within this room, it was transmitted from inside the room.
Second, that light laugh was from a man, so it absolutely could not be her sister, besides her sister had already gone far and was no longer in the house.
But these two pieces of information were also the reason she felt fear.
A man with strength above hers had entered this room, and probably had also seen the prophecy given by the prophetic spirit stone.
She felt this absolutely would not be a good thing.
As long as someone with strength above hers appeared, she no longer had absolute security.
“Since you have come, why be sneaky?”
“Show yourself.”
The fear on Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s face was already gone, in fact that fear was just a flash, an expert like her would not easily reveal her weaknesses and emotions.
Now she asked calmly, without anger or other emotions.
But the other party had no response at all.
“Sister, what is wrong with you?”
“Are you seriously ill? Actually talking to yourself?”
Suddenly, there was a response in the room, but it was a woman.
It was Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s sister who had returned, she had sensed Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s sensing power suddenly covering the entire Dao Hai, thinking something might have happened, so she came back to check.
When she returned, she just happened to see Dao Hai Immortal Aunt talking to herself.
“Sister, someone has sneaked into my Dao Hai.”
Dao Hai Immortal Aunt said.
“Who is it?”
Her sister asked.
Then Dao Hai Immortal Aunt told what had just happened.
Hearing this, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s sister also frowned slightly, then used many methods to investigate the entire Dao Hai, but the final result was the same as Dao Hai Immortal Aunt, nothing was found.
“Sister, in my opinion, your injuries are too severe, you have hallucinations.”
After investigating fruitlessly, Dao Hai Immortal Aunt’s sister instead lost her previous tension, firmly believing that Dao Hai Immortal Aunt had an illusion, there was simply no one sneaking into Dao Hai.
But Dao Hai Immortal Aunt firmly believed she had not misheard, after all that light laugh was so clear.
