"That's right, we are about to return to the sect. Shen Daoyou, why don't you come with us?" Yan Wushi asked.
"Of course. I also have to congratulate Brother Yan for reaching the True Immortal Realm." Shen Luo naturally had no objections. After sizing up Yan Wushi, he smiled.
Yan Wushi's aura surged. He had already broken through to the True Immortal Realm. Especially at his forehead, there was a faint crystal light. It seemed like his soul power had also improved by leaps and bounds.
"Compared to Brother Shen's strength, this little bit of improvement is insignificant." When Yan Wushi talked about his cultivation, his mood suddenly became gloomy. He smiled bitterly. His entire person exuded a sense of melancholy.
Shen Luo had been cultivating the Body Refining Secret Manual, using the Lightning Thought Art, Buzhou Soul Suppressing Art and many other soul secret techniques. His senses had become sharper.
"Brother Yan, how have you been?" Shen Luo looked at Yan Wushi and asked with concern.
The melancholy that Yan Wushi was exuding now was unusually gloomy. It was almost as if his heart had died. Something big must have happened to him.
"I'm fine. What could happen to me? Let's go." Yan Wushi shook his head and led the way.
Seeing this, Shen Luo didn't ask any more questions. He followed Yan Wushi and the others and flew forward.
"Are you all on a mission?" Shen Luo looked at them.
"Yes, we are looking for the thing that Gui Yan left behind. If you ask me, we have already searched for so many days and have no clue at all. Why waste more time?" Lin Han complained.
Yan Wushi's face darkened and he glared at Lin Han.
Lin Han knew that he had said something wrong and quickly shut his mouth.
"Brother Shen is not an outsider and knows some things. I won't hide anything. Although we killed Gui Yan in the Black Abyss Maze Cave, there were many things that we couldn't find. They might have been lost somewhere in the Boundless Desert. We naturally have to search carefully." Yan Wushi sighed.
Shen Luo nodded and didn't say anything. He felt slightly ashamed.
The thing that the Tianji City was looking for was naturally the latter half of the Tianji Scroll. Right now, it was in his hands and he had already studied it thoroughly. Next, he would look for an opportunity to return it to the Tianji City.
The few of them were traveling at an extraordinary speed. In less than two hours, they arrived at another oasis. The majestic Tianji City stood there, looking exactly the same as before.
"Senior Brother Yan, who did you bring?" Just as Shen Luo and the others stopped, a few figures flew out from the city's protective barrier. The one leading them was a True Immortal Stage Yanshi.
"This is Dao friend Shen Luo. Our sect owes him a great debt of gratitude. I am under the orders of the City Lord to bring him into the city. You are not to obstruct us." Yan Wushi said.
Shen Luo rubbed his nose. Looking at the situation, it seemed like Tianji City's security was much tighter than before.
"So it's Shen Daoyou. Since it's the City Lord's orders, please come in." True Immortal Yanshi looked at Shen Luo and stepped aside.
The few of them passed through the city's protective barrier and entered the city.
Tianji City was much livelier than before. The streets were filled with people and the flow of people was much more than before.
In a plaza in the northwest of the lower city, there was a huge arena being built. It seemed like some event was going to be held.
"It's so lively. Is Tianji City holding some sort of grand event?" Shen Luo looked around and asked.
"It's not a grand event. Our sect has recently refined a new batch of armor and magic treasures. According to the rules of the city, we will display the power of the armor and magic treasures in front of everyone. This will make it easier for outsiders to judge and choose. Hence, the city is livelier." Yan Wushi said.
"I see." Shen Luo nodded slightly.
"Brother Shen, the City Lord is in seclusion for the next two days. I will go and inform him now. Please wait in the lower city for a while." Yan Wushi said apologetically.
"Alright." Shen Luo wasn't in a hurry.
Yan Wushi immediately sent someone to accompany Shen Luo. It was the same person as before, Zhou Ming. The two of them arrived at Falling Flower Villa.
"Shen Daoyou, please rest here. I will take my leave first." After settling Shen Luo's daily needs, Zhou Ming stood up and bid farewell.
"Dao Friend Zhou, please wait a moment. I have something to ask. Previously, when I interacted with Brother Yan, although he didn't smile much, his personality was still considered positive. But this time … Is there something troubling him recently? After successfully advancing into the True Immortal Stage, why does he still seem unhappy? "Shen Luo stopped Zhou Ming, who was about to leave.
Although Yan Wushi had already advanced into the True Immortal Stage, his mental state was still so depressed. This would be detrimental to his future cultivation.
Towards this friend of his, Yan Wushi, he still cared a lot.
"Senior Brother Yan's matter? I don't know much about it. I only know that he has been like this ever since he returned from the Black Abyss Mystery Cave. Something should have happened there. "Zhou Ming thought for a moment and said.
"Black Abyss Mystery Cave?" Shen Luo's expression changed.
He had been traveling with Yan Wushi in the Black Abyss Mystery Cave. He didn't see anything that affected his mood. Could it be that something happened in the Yin Cave?
"Dao Friend Zhou, is there a girl called Beigong Ying in Tian Ji City?" Shen Luo thought back to what happened in the Black Abyss Mystery Cave. A thought flashed across his mind and he asked.
"Beigong Ying! Yes, there is. Senior Sister Beigong is Elder Mo Wang's disciple. She has a good relationship with Senior Brother Yan. It is said that the two of them almost dual cultivated together. But Senior Sister Beigong mysteriously disappeared many years ago. Why is Shen Daoyou asking about this? "Zhou Ming said.
"So it is because of that Beigong Ying?" Shen Luo sighed in his heart. He roughly understood the reason for Yan Wushi's current state.
Beigong Ying was refined into an Earth Fiend Corpse King by Gui Yan. She was living a life worse than death. When Yan Wushi heard about this, he was naturally disappointed.
But it was impossible for his teacher not to see Yan Wushi's problem. Why didn't he try to console him?
"Nothing, just asking." Shen Luo shook his head and said.
"Oh," Zhou Ming replied and quickly took his leave.
Shen Luo sat quietly in the room for a while. Then, he closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing to relieve the fatigue from the journey.
Yan Wushi didn't make him wait for too long. In less than half a day, he found him and brought him to the upper level of Tian Ji City to see his teacher.
"Greetings, City Lord." Shen Luo went up to greet him.
"My apologies. I was making a piece of Yan Armor and wasted a lot of time. I have made Shen Daoyou wait for a long time." The teacher said.
"City Lord is too polite. I am a junior. It is only right for me to wait. Have you finished the preparations to repair the jade pillow?" Shen Luo said humbly. He couldn't help but ask.
"It is all done. If Shen Daoyou is willing, we can begin immediately." The teacher laughed.
"Then I will leave it to you." Shen Luo's face lit up. He took out the jade pillow, the Mountain River Map, and the Blood Soaked Nine Dragon Pearl and handed them over.
"It will take some time to repair the jade pillow. Shen Daoyou, please wait patiently." The teacher took the three items and said.
"No problem." Shen Luo agreed happily.
"Oh right, our sect has just produced a new batch of Yan Armor and Dharma Treasures. The city has been quite lively these days. All kinds of Spiritual Materials are traded frequently. Shen Daoyou can take this opportunity to walk around the city and buy some things that you can use." The teacher said.
"Since the City Lord has invited me, it would be impolite to refuse." Shen Luo had many things to buy. He immediately nodded and agreed.
With Fire Spirit, a master blacksmith, he planned to strengthen many of his Dharma Treasures. He was especially interested in Fire Spirit's Vessel Soul Conversion Technique.
