Illusion Spiritual Mark

The old man hurriedly calmed himself down, after all he couldn't have himself losing self control in this backwater town. He meaningfully looked at the young man who awakened this rare spiritual mark. ' If I can directly take him to the Academy Qualifiers then it would be the very best'.

No one knew what he meant by the Academy qualifiers, however it sure isn't anything within the scope of an average man's knowledge.

Shen Guan on the other hand was drowning in the spotlight. His arrogance reached the peak and he viewed every other person as beneath him. He surely was the perfect example of a heaven favoured boy.

Shen Guan glanced at Duan Yu gleefully and expectantly, Duan Yu's smile was the only response he got. While he could not fully interprete this, the spiritual mark he awakened gave him enough pride to make him believe he already had Duan Yu in the bag.

The old man finally spoke up again. "Young lad, why don't you go with me to the Imperial city? The imperial clan would surely be interested in you" Although this manner of speech was too straightforward and could rouse a sense of excessive pride within Shen Yuan, the old man didn't mind. After all, even the himself didn't have such a wonderful spirit.

Shen Guan looked at his father with a smile as if meaning to say 'see? This son is beyond what you old folks can comprehend'. His father, failing to see the meaning behind his look only nodded while thinking he was requesting for the permission to leave. Shen Guan then turned to the old man and bowed his head slightly while cupping a fist into his hand. "This disciple is willing" .

The old man nodded satisfactorily, no longer paying attention to Shen Guan "Next!" It was at this moment that Duan Yu moved forward.

Duan Yu was from the Duan clan, one of the two major clans in blackwater town. No one within the clan actually knew that Duan Yu's father came back with an unrelated woman who he claimed as a wife and with a child he claimed to have as a daughter. As for their true origins, no one knows except the woman. Since Duan Yu grew up as a child in the Duan Clan, she took their name and has been with marked with them ever since.

Her each step caused her full orange balls to sway upwards and downwards, sweet fragrance lingering everywhere she passed. The old man himself was beginning to have lecherous ideas but he quickly pushed then off. His experience was his saving grace. Tang Yu watched the young girl from his position but he saw something different.

'Each move covering the exact same distance as the last, intentional seduction directed at the societally important people, a calm demeanor as though everything was within her grasp. She's...dangerous' Tang Yu deduced.

Although he had never been known for a strong physical capability, his mental strength and calculativeness was off the charts. He could at least see that much from that lady's action.

Her movement didn't cause an uproar unlike Shen Guan, however everyone was drawn into his own fantasy. Everyone was lost in thought, left totally vulnerable. The old man also noticed this and he couldn't help but look meaningfully at this lady. She definitely wasn't your average Joe.

She stretched forth her white jade hands and both palms rested on the white orb. Again, the orb vibrated vigorously. The old man couldn't help but be astonished. It would be acceptable if a place like black water village manage to produce a genius every 2 years but producing two geniuses in a year? Impossible!

While he was lost in his inner battle.

The apparition of a flower field appeared atop the white jade. A moment later, it changed to an apparition of corpse field then the sky. Countless scenarios kept appearing and disappearing. This caused the old man to swallow his spit. He couldn't utter a word. He finally understood everything.

"An Illusion Spiritual Mark"

The old man said nothing more than this. Although he could tell that it was an illusion spiritual mark, he didn't know which type.But the man had understood why she was such a seductress. Illusion Spiritual Marks are one of the most dangerous spiritual marks out there. Even he didn't dare say he would refer her to the imperial clan, it could spark a war. It was better to allow her perish in this backwater place without ever shining.

Afterwards, countless young men took their assessments till it was Tang Yu's turn. Tang Yu was an orphan. He had lost both parents and he had had to live a life of struggle all by himself. From the very age of 8, he had to face the cruelty of life all alone. He finally found a direction, the path of strength. Till he could ascend to the heavens and challenge the gods, he wouldn't quit. He would change his fate, reverse the ages and bring his parents back in time, gods were that powerful. Till he reached that pedestal, he would never rest.

He took another step forward and arrived before the spiritual mark identification device. He placed both hands on it and waited. The old man waited, everyone waited. Tang Yu stared blackly at the old man while waiting. He had obviously awakened a Spiritual Mark but the device wasn't reacting to it.

Tang Yu wasn't the only one who found this strange. The old man as well was other older generation cultivator who was present was puzzled. It's a different issue not to have awakened a Spiritual Mark, it's another to not have a speciality. Even spiritual marks without speciality would make the orb to at least vibrate. In Tang Yu's case, the orb didn't even react.

But just then the orb vibrated, a whirlpool appeared and vanished, the air turned blurry and cleared up again. All these happned in s single moment. The moment the old man saw this he sighed of relief but immediately his eyes widened. Impossible! Another illusion type? Here?! Impossible!
