The moment such a thought rose, Zong Shou shook his head. If there was a formation here, then it was okay. If it was a spell, this person would definitely be above the Day Wandering Realm. Any spell could easily take his life, so why go through so much trouble?
The key was that he couldn't sense any signs of large amounts of spiritual energy circulating around, which was why it wasn't a spiritual formation.
At least Zong Shou couldn't sense it now.
Xuanyuan Yiren followed behind him and came to the front of the carriage. Looking around, her brows were tightly furrowed.
When she rushed over from the back, the surrounding was already covered in thick fog, so she didn't think too much about it. Only now did she realize that the situation wasn't right. After thinking about it, she didn't dare to agree, "Uncle Lian, did you make a mistake? Didn't we keep going forward? How did we get lost? I remember that the fog rose less than 30 minutes ago, so how did it happen so quickly … "
"Miss Xuanyuan, I, Lian Fan, never lie!"
Lian Fan's expression was solemn as he pointed at the front of the carriage, "Look at these Windrider Foals. They look like they are going straight, but they are actually deviating. Apart from the fog being a little off, there should be some other illusionary technique to bewitch our minds. Just now, we probably went around the same spot, so we don't know which direction the carriage is heading in. Due to my ancestor's special bloodline, I was able to sense it early on! "
Xuanyuan Yiren was shocked. Looking carefully, the situation was exactly as Lian Fan had said. Her expression froze as she looked around in deep thought.
Zong Shou looked around for a moment, suddenly smiling and sitting down, "Uncle Lian, you can stop! It seems like there is an expert casting a spell here. Since that person isn't willing to let us go, there is no point in continuing. Why don't we rest and let the horses gather some strength … "
Since the day he was sent over by Lian Cheng to be a horse driver, Lian Fan had always listened carefully to Zong Shou's orders. At this moment, after the battle yesterday, he was even more convinced of Zong Shou's strength and followed his orders like they were Buddhist scriptures.
When he heard that, he didn't hesitate and waved his whip, stopping all the Windrider Foals.
Xuanyuan Yiren looked at Zong Shou unhappily, as if blaming him for acting on his own, but she didn't refute him.
This wait lasted for a full four hours. Zong Shou actually calmly fell asleep. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the fog still showed no signs of dissipating. Xuanyuan Yiren's eyes gradually became anxious. He rose into the air and stood at the top of the carriage. He clasped his hands and said, "I wonder which senior is doing this? Pill Fountain Sect junior disciple Xuanyuan Yiren greets you. Senior, please be kind and let us leave. "
His voice was imbued with the power of True Qi, and was transmitted ten miles away. They could faintly hear the reverberations of the surrounding area.
However, even after an hour had passed, there was still no response. Naturally, the fog showed no signs of dissipating.
Zong Shou came back to his senses and laughed when he saw the situation. Although he didn't know what the goal of the person who created this fog was, he didn't know.
Although he didn't know who the person was, he could confirm that this person didn't have any killing intent towards him. If he really wanted to harm him, these few hours were enough for him to use many methods.
Xuanyuan Yiren seemed to have seen through it. After taking in a deep breath, she sighed helplessly, "Prince, the fog here shouldn't be targeting us. However, we can't continue to wait like this. Yunniang and I will take a look around. If there is any danger, we can use this fire talisman to warn us. This talisman was specially made by our Pill Fountain Sect. Even in this fog, we can see it … "
A faint golden talisman flew out from Xuanyuan Yiren's hand. She seemed to think that Zong Shou couldn't use it, as she directly slapped it in front of Chu Xue. Following which, a few golden needles and forty over Grade Two beast crystals were placed around the carriage.
Zong Shou casually took a look and knew that this was a spiritual formation to differentiate one's location. As for those golden needles, they were something that Xuanyuan Yiren often used and had her aura and spiritual sense. Under the buff of the spiritual formation, even from tens of miles away, one could sense and differentiate. The entire spiritual formation was really simple, but it was ingenious.
Squinting his eyes, Zong Shou didn't care at all. Looking on as Xuanyuan Yiren and Li Yunniang left, he smiled and stood up, stretching his waist, "This nap is more or less full. How comfortable! Xue, why don't we go out and take a walk? "
Chu Xue exclaimed, looking in the direction that Xuanyuan Yiren left in, "But Young Master, didn't Miss Yiren ask us to wait for her here?"
"You are my brat, Zong Shou. Do you listen to me or her?"
Zong Shou grinned, jumping off the carriage and activating the Lightning Travelling Spirit Bone. With a crackling sound, he walked forwards like a wooden puppet. His brows rose up coldly, his hand pressing on the Lightning Tooth Sword. His violent intent was hidden as he smiled, "Since that person has already arranged such a huge formation for your Young Master. If the main character doesn't arrive, how can it end? “
Chu Xue didn't really understand, but she didn't hesitate, jumping off the carriage and following Zong Shou in a daze. Lian Fan also wisely abandoned the Windrider Foals and the Cloud Crossing Carriage and followed closely behind.
Zong Shou was also aimless, not distinguishing between the directions, just moving forwards based on his feelings. Suddenly, it went east, and then turned south. Seeing this, the two people behind exchanged glances with one another.
Weirdly speaking, just as Chu Xue was thinking that her Young Master was dumb, if he continued on like this, when would he reach the end? A ball of light suddenly entered the eyes of the three of them.
Following the light, they saw that this place was the shore of a small stream. On both sides of the stream was a large patch of green land with willows swaying. The water in the stream gave out tinkling sounds like celestial music.
Weirdly speaking, this place was covered in fog, making it hard for people to see clearly. However, there wasn't a single bit of fog on this side of the stream, making it look like a celestial realm.
Under the willows, two people could be seen sitting cross-legged.
A male and a female. The male was around seventy years old, wearing a linen Confucian robe. He had white hair and a white beard, giving off a celestial aura, like a celestial being.
The female was around seventeen or eighteen years old, a lightning mark appearing and disappearing at the center of her brows. She was extremely beautiful, making one unable to help but take a few more glances. Her aura wasn't that of an otherworldly being, but one that gave off a devilish charm.
Behind the two of them stood two other people, both of whom he was familiar with. One of them was Lei Dong, the other was Zhao Yanran.
When he looked at Zong Shou, the latter's eyes gave off a weird glow as he looked over. Lei Dong, on the other hand, smiled embarrassedly at him and winked at him.
The reactions of the two of them were different. Their expressions changed slightly, like they were a little disappointed, but also a little hopeful.
Zong Shou was startled, looking at the old man and the young girl in shock. After thinking about it for a moment, he vaguely guessed what was going on. He stared viciously at Lei Dong before walking over, bowing towards the two of them, "Zong Shou greets the two seniors! May I ask for your names? Is the fog here caused by the two of you? Can you be magnanimous and let Zong Shou and the others leave? "
The young girl with the lightning mark at the center of her brows didn't speak, her blue eyes sizing up Zong Shou's body. Her gaze was like she was looking at a lover, suddenly smiling, suddenly frowning, who knows what she was thinking about.
The old man was the same, a moment later he smiled and said, "I am Yan Fan, Lei Dong's uncle, in charge of Wujue Villa. I know that you and Lei Dong are sworn brothers, in the future you can just call me Uncle Lei! "
Before his words landed, the young girl scoffed coldly, "Don't try to pull connections! He and your nephew have only known each other for a day. How can such a brother count? "
Yan Fan smiled, nodding towards the young girl, "You recognize the two behind. As for this one, don't look at how young she is. She is famous in the cloud world, coming from Cang Shengdao Taiyuan Sect, known as Taiyuan Fairy, her name is Shui Lingbo. Normal spiritual Grandmasters would have to avoid him. "
When Chu Xue heard that, she didn't feel anything. However, Zong Shou and Lian Fan couldn't help but shudder.
The latter had only heard of the names of these two sects, while Zong Shou was truly shocked.
Wujue Villa, this was another shrine sect, ranked fifth out of the ten shrines. As for Taiyuan Sect, they were a little stronger, one of the three pillars of Cang Shengdao. At the same time, they controlled the third and seventh shrines, their strength was several times stronger than Lingyun Sect.
Compared to spiritual houses and sects, their strength was like heaven and earth.
However, what truly shocked him were the two people in front of him. They were the first batch of people to enter the celestial realm after the spiritual wave.
In his last life, in the god-emperor game, these two people were at a level that players couldn't reach.
Once a martial cultivator or spirit master reached the celestial realm, their lifespan could reach three thousand years. In his era, many people guessed that the two of them were still alive, but no one knew where they went.
Zong Shou took in a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. His expression was calm as he bowed slightly towards the two of them.
Although the identities of these two people were shocking, he didn't have anything he wanted, so naturally, he didn't need to suck up to them.
That Yan Fan smiled when he saw the situation, "Looking at you, you should have heard of Taiyuan Fairy and my name. The two of us are people who live in seclusion and don't have much fame. For the prince to know about us, you must have learned from your family! "
He waved his sleeves and pointed at the chessboard between him and Shui Lingbo, saying expressionlessly, "Prince, don't blame us! The fog this time was caused by something else, and it isn't something that the two of us can make things difficult for. However, not long ago, Taiyuan Fairy and I were discussing the cloud shocking god destroying sword technique of Lingyun Sect. We had different opinions on some areas and couldn't agree. This was why the fog was stirred up. "
When Chu Xue heard that, she immediately looked towards the chessboard. Only to see that the chessboard made of sandalwood was filled with black and white pieces. It wasn't much different from normal tools.
She couldn't help but feel weird. What did discussing the sword technique have to do with playing chess? Could it be that this fog was caused by this game of Go? That was just too unbelievable!
Zong Shou laughed coldly. As expected, in the next moment, that Yan Fan smiled as he looked over, "I heard Lei Dong say that you helped him comprehend the mountain and river knife intent?
