After locating the flaw, the Barrier Flaw Flower bounced and hopped back toward Immortal Yin Yang, much like a pet that had completed its task. It was clearly delighted — the way it carried itself, one could tell it was eagerly awaiting a reward from its master.
However, Immortal Yin Yang was far from pleased at this moment. Having his own Barrier Flaw Flower discover a flaw in his own barrier formation was essentially a slap to his own face, and it left him thoroughly irritated.
He snatched the Barrier Flaw Flower in his hand and squeezed it so hard that the flower let out a shrill "squeak" of pain.
"Immortal Realm Spirit, it seems your barrier formation isn't so perfect after all. Otherwise, your Barrier Flaw Flower wouldn't have found a flaw."
"Then again, this only goes to show how formidable your Barrier Flaw Flower is. Even if you're upset, I don't think you should take it out on the flower," Chu Feng said.
"Hmph! The Barrier Flaw Flower I created is naturally formidable — you don't need to tell me that."
"As for my formation, humph — nothing in this world is perfect. The fact that my formation has only a single flaw is itself proof of its exceptional quality," Immortal Yin Yang declared.
"Is that so?" Chu Feng didn't respond directly. Instead, he posed a counterquestion — and the sarcasm in his tone was unmistakable.
"Chu Feng, since you are a junior, I won't make things too difficult for you."
"If your barrier formation also has only a single flaw, and the light that blooms from the Barrier Flaw Flower can match the quality of mine, then I'll consider it your win," Immortal Yin Yang said.
"Then let's compare and see." As he spoke, Chu Feng extended his hand and deliberately pushed the formation he had constructed forward, placing it right before Immortal Yin Yang.
Immortal Yin Yang, in turn, swept his massive sleeve and tossed the Barrier Flaw Flower directly onto Chu Feng's formation.
His movements were rough and forceful — it was clear that he harbored a deep grudge against the flower at this moment.
Hummmm—
Yet the instant the Barrier Flaw Flower made contact with Chu Feng's formation, its light blazed forth with overwhelming brilliance. The radiance was so dazzling it was like a miniature sun had descended upon the spot, its glow reaching miles in every direction.
And within that light, not only did blue skies and white clouds materialize, but there was also a rainbow — one phenomenon more than what Immortal Yin Yang's formation had produced.
"This…"
At that moment, Immortal Yin Yang's eyes bulged wide in shock.
He was so stunned that he didn't even know what to say, because the light blooming from Chu Feng's formation far surpassed his own, and the additional rainbow phenomenon was proof that Chu Feng's formation was of higher quality than his.
Even so, he pricked up his ears, his gaze still locked tightly on Chu Feng's formation — he was waiting for the sound of shattering, hoping to see whether Chu Feng's barrier formation also had a flaw.
But the result left him in bitter disappointment. The Barrier Flaw Flower eventually detached from Chu Feng's formation of its own accord, and no cracking sound had ever come. This meant that the formation Chu Feng had constructed had no flaws whatsoever — or at least, this particular Barrier Flaw Flower had been unable to identify any flaw in it.
"Damn it."
But then Immortal Yin Yang's expression shifted yet again, and a roar of fury erupted from his throat. The heavens and earth trembled with his rage, and the surrounding trees cracked apart and exploded. Such was the magnitude of his fury.
He was not the only one caught off guard — even Chu Feng was somewhat dumbfounded, because after separating from Chu Feng's formation, the Barrier Flaw Flower had not returned to Immortal Yin Yang's side. Instead, it drifted toward Chu Feng.
