Ji Tianxing ignored the guards and did not waste any time. He flew straight to the Floating Mountain.
He had read the books in the study before and had some understanding of the Floating Mountain.
It was one of the forbidden grounds of the Heaven Evasion Sect. It was located eight hundred li north of the mountain range, deep within the barrier.
According to the books, the Floating Mountain was naturally formed and had a history of several thousand years.
Over two thousand years ago, when the founding ancestor of the Heaven Evasion Sect had chosen this location, the Floating Mountain had already existed.
No one knew why the thousand-meter-tall mountain was floating in the sky, shrouded by white clouds and thick fog.
However, the Floating Mountain contained a mysterious energy that was extremely beneficial to cultivation. It had always been the place where the Heaven Evasion Sect Master and Enforcers cultivated in seclusion.
It was said that there were experts overseeing the Floating Mountain, as well as many elite experts guarding it. There were also ferocious mutated beasts residing there.
The ordinary disciples, deacons, and elders of the sect did not dare to approach the Floating Mountain, or else they would be severely punished.
Ji Tianxing had disguised himself as Ji Wucuo's disciple Li Chang, but he did not have the right to set foot on the Floating Mountain. If he was discovered, he would only be punished.
However, he only wanted to save the little Black Dragon in the shortest amount of time possible. How could he care about anything else?
His figure merged into the night and silently tore through the curtain of night, flying as fast as lightning toward the Floating Mountain.
On the way, he passed by a forest several hundred li wide and looked down at the tamed monsters.
He silently used a technique to sense the little Black Dragon's aura, searching for traces of it.
Not long after, he crossed the forest and continued to fly toward the Floating Mountain.
What he could be sure of was that the little Black Dragon was not in that forest.
"After the Left Enforcer captured the little Black Dragon, he has not been in the Left Palace these past few days and has been hiding in the Floating Mountain.
It seems that the little Black Dragon is very likely imprisoned in the Floating Mountain! "
He silently speculated, "The little Black Dragon definitely won't submit so easily. The Heaven Evasion Sect won't be able to tame it that easily. Moreover, it is a Divine Beast Black Dragon. The Heaven Evasion Sect will definitely not be willing to kill it … "
He could only be sure that the little Black Dragon's life was not in danger for now.
About a quarter of an hour later, Ji Tianxing flew into the vast mountains.
Under the veil of night, numerous mountains that were 3km tall stood towering in all directions. They were like countless enormous beasts that were waiting to devour a man, and they lay dormant in the darkness.
In the center of the dozens of mountain peaks, in the sky, thousands of feet above the ground, floated a thousand feet tall mountain.
Even though it was a night with a bright moon and few stars, the area around the mountain was covered with white clouds and fog, shrouding half of the mountain.
The mountain was steep, and there were cliffs everywhere, dotted with dark green trees.
Ji Tianxing raised his head and looked up. He saw that halfway up the mountain, there were dots of lights, and he could vaguely see people walking around.
Several ancient palaces had been built on top of the mountain. They were magnificent and had a domineering aura that could suppress the heavens and the earth.
However, it was dark inside the palace, with only a few scattered lights shining weakly.
Ji Tianxing retracted his aura and quietly approached the floating mountain, constantly observing the surroundings.
He was like a ghost, blending into the night. Even if someone flew past him, they might not be able to detect him.
A hundred breaths of time later, he arrived at the base of the floating mountain, hiding in the white clouds and fog.
He used his soul to investigate and found that the entire floating mountain was protected by an invisible formation.
Once an external force came into contact with the formation, it would light up, alarming the guards and experts on the mountain.
"It really is a forbidden ground of the Heaven Evasion Sect. The defenses are so tight. The formation protecting the floating mountain is actually a mid-grade Soul-level formation."
Ji Tianxing observed for a while and couldn't help but frown.
To him, breaking through a mid-grade Soul-level formation was not difficult. The difficult part was not alarming anyone.
He slowly flew around the base of the mountain, carefully observing the situation.
An hour later, he flew a circle around the floating mountain, clearly observing the situation on the mountain.
From the middle of the mountain to the top, there were over thirty sentry posts. Over a hundred Sky Origin Stage guards were patrolling in a regular pattern.
The palace at the top of the mountain seemed to be silent and no one was moving, but there were fluctuations of Soul Refinement Realm cultivators.
Ji Tianxing circled to the back of the floating mountain and hid under a hidden cliff. He secretly released his soul to investigate the method to break the defensive formation.
Half an hour later, he had a rough idea of how to break the formation, but he was not in a hurry to act.
Half an hour later, a group of armored guards with swords flew past him, unhurriedly flying away.
When the group of guards disappeared into the night, he immediately released his soul and began to break the defensive formation.
Half an hour later, another group of patrolling guards flew over from afar, about to pass above Ji Tianxing's head.
At this time, Ji Tianxing successfully broke the formation, breaking a hole in it, and his figure flashed into it.
The next moment, the formation closed by itself, and he was already inside the floating mountain.
Throughout the entire process, he did not alarm anyone, including the patrolling guards not far away.
By the time the patrolling guards flew past this area, Ji Tianxing had already disappeared into the darkness, silently rushing towards the mountain peak.
In a short incense stick's worth of time, he had searched the entire mountain peak.
The five palaces on the mountain peak had several hundred rooms of various sizes. He had used his soul to investigate them all.
The result was indisputable. The little Black Dragon was not on the mountain peak.
He hid in the corner of one of the palaces, frowning as he pondered, "I just used a secret technique to investigate. The little Black Dragon's aura is nearby.
But it's not on this mountain peak. Could it be inside the floating mountain? "
When he thought of this, he was about to use an earth movement technique to drill into the mountain and search carefully.
But at this time, something strange happened.
"Whoosh!"
A dazzling sword light suddenly shot out from the night sky, stabbing straight at Ji Tianxing's head.
The blazing white sword light contained vast Soul energy and was extraordinarily powerful.
Ji Tianxing did not think too much about it. He subconsciously raised his right hand and slapped out.
"Bang!"
With a muffled boom, the one-foot-long Soul sword light was pulverized by his slap.
His palm was unscathed, but his body found it difficult to endure the massive impact and was forced back three steps.
Ji Tianxing grimaced, his eyes flashing with cold light. "Oh no, I've been discovered!"
Only now did he recall that in one of the palaces on the mountain peak, a Soul Refinement Realm expert was hibernating in seclusion.
"When I was searching for the little Black Dragon, I must have alarmed that Soul Refinement Realm expert!"
As this thought flashed through his mind, another white light shot out from the night sky.
"Whoosh!"
The white light tore through the night sky and instantly landed on a roof a hundred feet in front of him.
When the white light scattered, a tall and muscular figure appeared.
This was a middle-aged man dressed in purple robes, two meters tall, and with a dignified face.
This person had an extraordinary bearing, his eyes flashing with an intimidating light, and his body exuded a noble and powerful domineering aura.
