The moment the purple-clothed woman saw Nie Tian, her eyes involuntarily trembled, and she cried out in alarm.
She had not expected that the person in front of her would be Nie Tian!
"You …" Nie Tian's eyes darkened. Just as he was about to speak, the purple-shirted lady moved and the mist in the valley disappeared instantly.
Following this, the purple-shirted lady glanced at Nie Tian. Without saying a word, a pair of holy wings formed from white light appeared on her back and she disappeared into the sky.
Nie Tian was stunned. He wanted to chase after her, but it was too late. The purple-shirted lady's figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What is she doing?" Nie Tian was dumbfounded. He only reacted after a while with a confused expression.
"She's looking for the Sacred Veins." At that moment, the Ghost Emperor's voice was heard.
Nie Tian's eyes narrowed as he recalled the Ghost Emperor's words. He asked, "Ghost Emperor, what are the Sacred Veins you mentioned?"
"The mist tentacles in the valley just now were the Sacred Bloodline Tentacles." The Ghost Emperor's face darkened as he said, "The mist was the Sacred Veins Qi coming from underground."
"Normally, the energy of the Sacred Veins wouldn't leak out. But why would there be Sacred Veins Qi?"
"Could it be that there's a crack in the Tian Xing Mountain Range?"
"A crack in the Sacred Veins?" Nie Tian was startled. He had no idea what the Ghost Emperor was talking about.
"The Sacred Veins are usually located tens of thousands of meters underground. They're very stable." The Ghost Emperor explained, "Only when there's a crack in the Sacred Veins will the Sacred Veins Qi come out from underground and form the Sacred Veins Qi."
Nie Tian did not fully understand. He asked, "Could it be that the purple-shirted lady could sense the Sacred Veins Qi and absorb its energy?"
He had seen the purple-shirted lady absorb the energy of the Sacred Veins Qi.
Furthermore, the mysterious aura he felt in the ancient past was the Sacred Veins Qi.
After the purple-shirted lady disappeared, so did the aura of the Sacred Veins Qi.
Therefore, Nie Tian guessed that the purple-shirted lady had absorbed the Sacred Veins Qi.
"She's not absorbing the Saint Vein Qi." The Ghost Emperor shook his head and said, "I'm guessing that she's trying to use the Saint Vein Qi to sense the location of the crack."
"Sense the Saint Vein's crack?" Nie Tian blanked for a moment before asking, "What does she want to do?"
"I don't know." The Ghost Monarch frowned and paused for a moment before saying, "Nie Tian, I have a feeling that this purple-robed woman isn't from the Myriad Domain."
"Are you saying that she's from the Saints' World?" Nie Tian's eyes trembled as he asked in surprise.
The Ghost Emperor hesitated for a moment before replying, "It's very likely."
Nie Tian's pupils constricted slightly, and he was stunned on the spot.
He never thought that the purple-robed woman would actually come from the Sacred Realm!
Why would a Holy World martial practitioner appear in a realm?
What was her purpose in coming to this realm?
Why did she want to sense the crack in the saint vein?
Everything was like a huge mystery, lingering in Nie Tian's heart.
The Ghost Emperor's expression was equally ugly.
He had already confirmed that the purple-robed woman was from the Sacred Realm, and her identity was not simple at all. She was from the Holy Feather Race!
The Holy Feather Race was an extremely powerful force in the Sacred Realm.
The Ghost Emperor had seen the white wings on the purple-robed woman's back when she left. It was the symbol of the Holy Feather Race: Holy Feather!
At that moment, Nie Tian suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but exclaim, "I remember!"
He finally remembered where he had seen the purple-robed woman's aura before.
The Heavenly Feather Race, Aya!
Among the Nine Extremities, there was a little girl from the Heavenly Feather Race, Aya. Nie Tian had saved her when he accompanied Jing Youwei and the others to the Sacred Moon Dynasty.
The purple-robed woman's aura was similar to Aya's.
No wonder Nie Tian had felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he saw the purple-robed woman.
The purple-robed woman's aura was very similar to Aya's, but there were still some slight differences between the two.
It seemed that Aya's aura was not as pure as the purple-robed woman's.
"Could it be that Aya and the purple-robed woman are from the same race?" Nie Tian frowned as he thought to himself.
"Nie Tian, let that stick continue following the purple-robed woman," the Ghost Emperor said solemnly.
Nie Tian nodded and walked out of the valley.
"Lord Nie Tian, the purple-robed woman has left," Luo Hou hurriedly said when he saw Nie Tian come out.
"Let's continue following her," Nie Tian nodded and said solemnly.
Then, they continued to follow the purple-robed woman.
Several days later, Nie Tian and the others arrived outside a dense forest.
"Brother Nie Tian, this forest looks a little strange," Shang Lai said with a frown as he walked to Nie Tian's side.
"This forest is a killing formation, right? It looks eerie." Shang Nana also walked over and couldn't help but comment.
Nie Tian smiled faintly. "This dense forest is indeed enveloped by a deadly spell formation." Instead of panicking, a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
A killing formation of this level was naturally not a problem for the Ghost Emperor.
Nie Tian was curious about what was in the forest and why there was a killing formation.
"Strange, the purple-robed woman's aura has disappeared in this forest." Luo Hou approached Nie Tian and said doubtfully.
His evil spirit mark could exist for several months.
However, the aura of the evil spirit mark had stopped in the forest.
Luo Hou tried his best to sense it, but he couldn't sense the purple-robed woman's aura at all.
"It seems like this forest is not simple," Nie Tian said as he looked at the forest in front of him.
"Nie Tian, give this Emperor some time," the Ghost Emperor's voice rang out.
The killing formation in the forest was not complicated, but it would take some time to completely deconstruct the formation's structure.
"Mm." Nie Tian replied. He wasn't in a hurry and waited on the spot.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed. The Ghost Emperor had more or less deconstructed the killing formation's structure.
But at this moment, Luo Hou suddenly came to Nie Tian's side and said nervously, "Lord Nie Tian, someone is coming!"
"Hmm?" Nie Tian went blank for a moment before his expression flickered.
Shang Lai and his sister saw the change in Nie Tian's expression and instantly became nervous. They couldn't help but approach Nie Tian.
"Brat, I finally found you!" Moments later, a grim, deep voice rang out. Immediately afterwards, a white-robed figure flew through the air and landed in front of Nie Tian and the others. He stared at Nie Tian with a pair of gloomy, cold eyes, as if he wanted to eat Nie Tian alive.
"It's you." Nie Tian stared at the figure that had suddenly appeared. His eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth twitched.
The person who appeared was none other than the young master of the Mysterious Firmament Branch, Huo Chengdong, who had been humiliated by Nie Tian not long ago!
"That's me!" Huo Chengdong sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Chengdong, is the person who hurt you this Silver Hair?" Then, a violent voice rang out in the void. Then, a black-robed figure appeared and stood coldly in the void. He emitted a cold aura and a murderous intent.
