He looked like he was running for his life. Yu Wanqiu frowned and asked, "Brother Qiao Feng, what happened?"
Yu Wanqiu's strength was average, so she couldn't sense the auras chasing after her. Qin Feng said while piloting the Soaring Cloud Awl, "Someone is chasing after me. They probably saw that I had so many treasures at the auction and want to rob me."
"Huh? These cultivators are too shameless. They're actually doing this kind of shady business. "
Yu Wanqiu had always been painstakingly cultivating in the sect. This expedition to the Thirteen Palaces was one of the few times she had experienced it. She still didn't have a thorough understanding of how sinister people could be.
When the Soaring Cloud Awl's speed reached its limit, the auras behind him were quickly pulled away. After two incense sticks of time, only three auras were still chasing after him.
Qin Feng couldn't see through these three auras. They were at least at the Body Condensation realm or even Cauldron Filling realm. If they caught up to him, he would most likely die.
However, Qin Feng gradually calmed down. He discovered that the three people's aircraft were only high-grade True Artifacts, and their quality wasn't as high as his. Moreover, Qin Feng used five spirit crystals to accelerate the Soaring Cloud Awl, so the distance between them gradually widened.
At that moment, Yi Bing and the other two disciples of the Qilin Mountain, who were guarding outside the plaza, saw a silver light fly over their heads. When they tried to chase after it, they discovered that they couldn't even see the shadow of the Soaring Cloud Awl.
"So fast! That flying magic treasure is at least a high-grade True Artifact!"
"Oh no, that Qiao brat escaped."
The two disciples made a ruckus. Yi Bing's face was cold. He had been waiting for Qin Feng outside the plaza for more than an hour, but he still managed to escape.
"Hmph! That brat is lucky. Otherwise, he would have died in my hands. Let's go back to the sect first. We'll destroy that ant sooner or later. "
…
After flying for a day and a night with the help of five spirit crystals, Qin Feng finally relaxed. He was sure that he had lost all the people chasing after him.
At that moment, a blue light streaked across the sky and flew in the direction of the Soaring Cloud Awl. Qin Feng, who had just relaxed, became vigilant again.
"Brother Qiao Feng, that should be a flying sword messenger," Yu Wanqiu reminded him.
It didn't take Qin Fen long to notice that it was indeed a ray of sword light. Moreover, he recognized it as the White Deer Sect's Flying Messenger Sword.
When he thought of White Deer Sect, Qin Fen immediately flew out of the cabin and put away the flying sword. If it wasn't for Divination Zhen helping him obtain a spot to enter the Thirteen Palaces, he wouldn't be where he was today.
The flying sword burned on its own in the cabin, and a paragraph of text appeared in the air.
"White Heron Sect is in trouble. Benefactor, please don't come, don't miss me!"
This was obviously a flying sword letter sent by Bo Suanzhen. When Qin Fen learned that the White Deer Sect was in trouble, the first thing he thought of was the Five Star Sect's God's Finger. Back then, the God's Finger's Little Elder, Shen Xuhen, had gone to the White Deer Sect to ask for a spot, but was rejected by Sect Master Bo Suiyi.
Now, Shen Xuhen was no longer in this world. Even Shen Mo You, the Great Elder of God One Finger, had died at Qin Feng's hands. Not to mention the only son of God One Finger's Sect Leader, Shen Wu Xing.
This conflict definitely had something to do with Qin Fen. He wasn't someone who was afraid of death. When he learned that the White Deer Sect was in trouble, he immediately changed directions and rushed to the White Deer Sect.
Qin Fen didn't know where he was, and even Yu Wanqiu couldn't recognize him. However, Qin Fen knew that the White Deer Sect was in the outer area of Pan Shan Market, and it would take him at least a day and a night to rush back.
Being impatient was not a solution, so Qin Fen gradually calmed down. He couldn't help but think of the Ghost City that Cui Cheng had mentioned.
"Sister Wanqiu, do you know about the Ghost City?" When Cui Cheng mentioned the Ghost City, Qin Fen noticed that Yu Wanqiu's expression changed greatly.
Now that Ghost City was mentioned again, Yu Wanqiu's expression changed again. She seemed to be very afraid of that place.
"Little Brother Qiao Feng, don't go to the Ghost City. It is one of the South Flat Continent's Eight Great Danger Zones, and rumor has it that it is the most dangerous place. Many cultivators who go there to explore have died."
Qin Fen was shocked.
He had already been to one of the Eight Great Danger Zones, the Thirteen Palaces, so he knew how dangerous the Thirteen Palaces were. He and Yu Wanqiu had only entered the eighth palace, and they were already unable to advance. If they went to the ninth palace or higher, they might die instantly.
The Ghost City was even more dangerous than the Thirteen Palaces. Qin Fen found it hard to imagine what kind of place it was.
However, after a short moment of shock, Qin Fen calmed down. He was going to the Danger Zones that had precious treasures. Although danger lurked everywhere, it was also accompanied by endless opportunities.
"Sister Wanqiu, tell me the history of the Ghost City in detail," Qin Fen said.
Yu Wanqiu revealed a worried expression. She knew that Qin Fen was tempted by the Ghost City, and she understood Qin Fen even better. She knew that there was no point in trying to persuade him.
After sighing, Yu Wanqiu slowly said, "I've only heard about it. Rumor has it that the Ghost City was originally a holy land for cultivation in the South Flat Continent. It was called the Spirit Fog City, and it got its name because of the lingering spirit fog that floated in the city.
"Later, a precious treasure appeared in the Spirit Fog City, and some people even said that it was an immortal artifact. For a time, the Spirit Fog City was engulfed in smoke, and all sorts of powerful cultivators went there to search for that immortal artifact. In the end, there were countless casualties, and the majestic Spirit Fog City turned into ruins …
"For some reason, the dense spirit qi in the Spirit Fog City disappeared, and it gradually became a cultivation wasteland, and no one cared about it.
"However, a few hundred years ago, someone accidentally entered the Ghost City and brought out many treasures. After asking around, we found out that those treasures were the weapons and treasures of the powerful cultivators who died in the Spirit Fog City …
"As a result, countless cultivators formed teams to explore the Spirit Fog City, but they gradually realized that almost none of them came out, let alone found any treasures inside. No one dared to go to the city again, and it was shrouded in a gloomy fog at night, so people changed its name to the Ghost City … "
Qin Fen didn't expect the Ghost City to have such a history. After understanding the situation, he became even more interested in the Ghost City. Although what Yu Wanqiu said was all hearsay, Qin Fen felt that part of the story was true.
If an immortal artifact really appeared in the Spirit Fog City, was it still there?
"Brother Qiao Feng, although there are still rumors that there are precious treasures in the Ghost City, very few cultivators from the South Flat Continent go there to explore. It's best if you don't go," Yu Wanqiu advised.
Qin Fen had already decided to go to the Ghost City to take a look when he had the time, but in order to not worry Yu Wanqiu, he nodded in agreement.
He changed the topic. "By the way, Sister Wanqiu, do you know about the Spirit Beast Valley?"
Yu Wanqiu looked at him in surprise. Ever since she met Qin Fen, Yu Wanqiu felt that he was not from the South Flat Continent. There were many places that everyone knew, but Qin Fen did not.
"Hehe! I was just asking casually. If Sister Wanqiu doesn't know, then forget it. "Qin Fen realized that he might have said the wrong thing and quickly laughed.
Yu Wanqiu didn't ask anymore. After adjusting her emotions, she said, "The Spirit Beast Valley is a sacred place for spirit beasts in the South Flat Continent. There are many spirit beasts in that valley, and it is occupied by spirit beasts."
The reason Qin Fen asked about the Spirit Beast Valley was because the man wearing the low-grade true artifact mask said that he obtained the Thousand Year Bird's feather in the Spirit Beast Valley. Qin Fen still lacked the level-nine Thunder Bird's spirit pill, which was the orange thunder stone. He thought that he could go to the Spirit Beast Valley to try his luck and see if there were any traces of the Thunder Bird.
"The Spirit Beast Valley must be a place with dense spirit qi. It is the best choice to establish a sect base. Why is it occupied by spirit beasts?" Qin Fen was puzzled.
Yu Wanqiu rolled her eyes and once again suspected that Qin Fen was not a cultivator from the South Flat Continent.
"Because the spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Valley are of very high levels. The lowest level is a level-seven spirit beast, and there are even level-nine spirit beasts."
Qin Fen came to a realization.
When he found the Three-leafed Devil Ginseng on the seventh floor of the thirteen palaces, he met Lin Xi and the Thunder Leopard that guarded the Devil Ginseng. That Thunder Leopard was only a level-seven spirit beast, but its strength was comparable to a middle-stage or late-stage Void God Realm cultivator. If it was a level-eight spirit beast, it would probably have a Body Condensation Realm cultivation. As for level-nine spirit beasts, Qin Fen couldn't comment on them for now.
Immediately, Qin Fen put aside the matter of finding the Thunder Bird. The Thunder Bird was a level-nine spirit beast, and it was a thunder-type spirit beast. With his current strength, he would only be courting death if he went.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Qin Fen went to a resting room and started his seclusion. This time, he collected more than 3,000 soul crystals from the eighth palace and planned to absorb them properly.
When hundreds of soul crystals were placed around him, a powerful divine sense aura rose in the resting room that was over 30 square meters. This divine sense had already lost its intelligence and was drifting in the room like a gas.
Qin Fen immediately opened his sea of consciousness and frantically absorbed the divine sense aura in the room. He realized that the absorption process was very smooth, and it was as simple as absorbing spirit qi with his body.
After half an hour, more than a hundred soul crystals were completely absorbed. The soul crystals that were originally as shiny as black agate became dim and finally scattered like fossils in the wind.
Qin Fen did not care about the used up soul crystals and immediately took out more than a hundred new soul crystals. He felt that his sea of consciousness was rapidly expanding, and the strength of his divine sense was constantly increasing. This feeling was even more gratifying than breaking through a realm.
Rumble!
After more than a hundred new soul crystals were completely absorbed, there was a loud noise in Qin Fen's mind.
The aura in his sea of consciousness was tumbling, and when it calmed down, his entire sea of consciousness seemed to have doubled in size. The divine sense that Qin Fen released was even more extensive. The divine sense that was like an illusory magnetic field became clearer, and he felt that if he continued to strengthen it, it would condense into a solid substance.
Qin Fen suddenly realized that the sea of consciousness also had a high and low realm. Perhaps it was because the Divine Supreme Continent's cultivators' realms were too low, so they had not noticed this problem. Or perhaps some almighty cultivators had realized that the sea of consciousness could break through, but they did not know how to define the realm of the sea of consciousness.
More than 200 soul crystals had improved Qin Fen's sea of consciousness by a realm. He immediately wanted to continue devouring soul crystals, but he heard Yu Wanqiu's voice coming from the door.
"Little Brother Qiao Feng, the White Deer Sect has arrived. Should we land the Flying Cloud Cone and go in?"
Qin Fen could only temporarily put away his thoughts and walked out of the room, saying, "Let's go! We'll go to the White Deer Sect to solve the problem! "
