"Where are Zhao Ya and the others?"
After sending the duo flying with a single move, Zhang Xuan continued walking over with a cold glint emanating from his spear, reminiscent of a war god descending from the heavens.
Ding dong!
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to grab one of them to interrogate him, a soundwave suddenly assaulted him, piercing right into his soul. Turning around, he saw the weak-looking young man who had used Ancient Sage Yan Yan's artifact on the zither, aiming his attack at him.
Unbeknownst to him, three Jin Bing had appeared before Wu Chen. Their punches were so powerful that the surrounding space would collapse from time to time, reflecting the fearsomeness of the battle.
"They sure have a lot of treasures …"
These were similar to the ones that Jin Bing had seen when he first entered the hall. They were handwriting left behind by Ancient Sages, and they harnessed their spirit, energy, and spirit.
With the simultaneous assault of three Jin Bing, no matter how powerful Wu Chen was, it was difficult for him to break free in a short period of time.
"The zithers used by Ancient Sage Jin Bing and Ancient Sage Yan Yan … Are they really Otherworldly Demons?"
A doubt surfaced in Zhang Xuan's mind.
Even Ancient Sage Mingshi Tang was unable to take out so many treasures, and yet, these Otherworldly Demons were able to do so easily.
Could they be from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers instead of the Otherworldly Demons?
No, if they were from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, who were Lozosy and Wu Chen?
The latter had told him personally that she was not an Otherworldly Demon!
"Flaws!"
Perplexed, Zhang Xuan turned his attention to the group before him.
Weng!
The Library of Heaven's Path jolted, but no books were compiled.
"What's going on? Do they possess the Discarnate Constitution of Divination as well? Surely there aren't that many of them? "
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
He could tolerate the fact that Lozosy and Wu Chen were unable to see through them, but this group of Otherworldly Demons was unable to see through them as well. What was going on?
They were executing battle techniques at the moment, and under normal circumstances, he should have been able to see through them easily!
"I get it now. Even though they don't possess the Discarnate Constitution of Divination, they must possess some artifact that allows them to conceal themselves from the heavens. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to capture Zhao Ya and the others without Mingshi Tang knowing!"
Realization struck Zhang Xuan.
Under normal circumstances, given that Mingshi Tang had the most skilled seers in the world, Zhao Ya, Wei Ruyan, Yuan Tao, and the others should have known that they were in danger when they were captured. Yet, there was no news at all … This could only mean that these people had some means to conceal themselves from the heavens.
It was just like the special tortoise shell of the Heavenly Secrets Hall. Under its cover, even the Heavenly Dao was unable to detect it.
It seems like I'll have to make a trip to the Seer Guild once I get out of here …
He narrowed his eyes.
There was actually an item in the world that could deceive the Heavenly Dao. Even he could not see through it, which made him feel very depressed.
If it came down to it, he could just head to the Seer Guild to look into the matter. Perhaps, he might be able to take precautions against it. No matter how tight the defenses of the other party were, he would surely be able to uncover some clues.
"It doesn't matter if I can't see through it. Whether it's true or not, I'll know once I try!"
Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up as killing intent surged from his body.
Even if the Library of Heaven's Path couldn't see through it, it didn't mean that it didn't have any other means.
Even though Otherworldly Demons were able to disguise themselves as humans, there was no way for them to alter their cultivation. It was a habit that they had developed over the years, and it would only be triggered in a moment of life and death.
Unless one's cultivation reached the pinnacle, they would be able to deal with all kinds of attacks with ease. However, to Zhang Xuan, such a person did not exist. As long as he used his full strength, he did not believe that anyone beneath Ancient Sage would be able to conceal themselves from him!
"The three of you, come at me together!"
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan burst into laughter as he raised the spear in his hand and tapped it forward.
Weng!
The soundwave from the other party was immediately deflected by the tip of the spear. Zhang Xuan stepped forward and swept his spear horizontally.
Huala!
A spatial rift appeared in the air as the spear shot toward the dark-skinned young man.
"Humph!"
With a flick of his wrist, the dark-skinned young man whipped out a brush and thrust it forward.
Ding ding ding ding!
The brush collided with the Dragonbone Divine Spear, and while it was forced to retreat eight steps, it did not suffer any damage.
Could it be an artifact left behind by an Ancient Sage as well?
Zhang Xuan was taken aback, but he knew that this was not the time to be thinking about such things. Thus, he thrust his spear forward once more.
Tzzzzz!
A powerful shockwave burst forth, reminiscent of a tornado. The dark-skinned young man's face warped in horror as he hurriedly retreated.
Ding dong!
Just as the tip of the spear was about to strike the dark-skinned young man, the zither melody of the frail young man sounded once more.
This time, Zhang Xuan did not put up any resistance. Instead, with a thought, he forcefully absorbed the soul-directed attack into his body.
Kacha!
In an instant, under the pressure of the Dragonbone Divine Spear, Zhang Xuan's incomplete metamorphosis began undergoing a qualitative change.
In that instant, Zhang Xuan felt his soul advancing a step further. Even though it had not reached Great Sage yet, it had become purer, and the size of his soul had shrunk by nearly half.
With a soul of this level, he was already capable of executing Soul Traverse.
"Hahaha, thank you!"
Having achieved a breakthrough, Zhang Xuan felt refreshed. Laughing heartily, he began walking forward.
Cold sweat trickled down the dark-skinned young man's forehead as he hurriedly retreated. However, Zhang Xuan's spear was similar to the Tarsus Poison. No matter how he tried, he was unable to dispel it.
"Block it!"
The dark-skinned young man's face turned livid. With a flick of his wrist, the brush in his hand flew out, and in the blink of an eye, a shield was formed in front of him.
Si la!
With a jolt of the spear, the shield was torn apart.
However, the force behind the spear was significantly weakened. The dark-skinned young man managed to block the spear with his sword and escape death.
"It seems like that fellow doesn't have an Ancient Sage artifact …"
Seeing that the dark-skinned young man was unable to use his Ancient Sage artifacts despite being cornered so badly, Zhang Xuan chuckled softly.
To be honest, even though he had used Kong Shi's blood droplet and the Dragonbone Divine Spear, it would still take him quite some time to capture the three of them and interrogate them about Zhao Ya and the others.
However, there was a time limit to the Kong Shi's blood droplet.
Since that was the case, he would just have to cripple this fellow who didn't have an Ancient Sage artifact first!
After which, he would make a move on the others!
Harrumphing coldly, Zhang Xuan flicked his spear once more and thrust it toward the dark-skinned young man.
Tzzzzz!
This spear thrust was even more powerful than the previous one. Before the tip of the spear could even reach the dark-skinned young man, countless sonic booms could already be heard. As if a piece of paper being torn apart, countless ripples appeared in the surrounding space.
Ding dong! Ding dong!
Not expecting the dark-skinned young man to be so direct, the dark-skinned young man hurriedly plucked the strings of his zither. However, as intense as the sound he produced was, it was all blocked out by the ripples.
Spatial Disturbance!
"Damn it!"
The dark-skinned young man immediately retaliated, but with a flick of the Dragonbone Divine Spear, he was able to knock the brush away.
"Putting aside the matter of where Zhao Ya and the others are, I'll just have one of you die first!"
With a cold bellow, the dark-skinned young man thrust his spear forward.
The dark-skinned young man's face paled. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer, he raised his head.
Roar!
With a deafening roar, the dark-skinned young man's body abruptly expanded. In the blink of an eye, he had grown to a height of two meters. At the same time, a powerful killing intent burst forth from his body.
"He's indeed an Otherworldly Demon!"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
