Hula!
As soon as those words were spoken, a jade token flew out from his palm and flew to the window. Following which, the formation in the surroundings seemed to have come under his control and came to life. A powerful aura burst forth, shrouding the entire manor.
With Jiang Fangyou's eye of discernment, he could easily tell that it had not been long since the items were moved away. If he was not mistaken, the thief should not have been able to escape yet.
As long as he used a formation to seal it and searched carefully, he would definitely be able to capture it!
After that was done, the two of them continued heading up to the third floor. Seeing that the third floor was completely empty, Jiang Fangyou's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. The pain in his chest was so excruciating that it felt as if it would explode at any moment.
The Jiang Clan's tens of thousands of years of accumulation has been silently emptied by someone … Just who is it? Once I get my hands on you, I swear I'll tear you to shreds!
…
"Success!"
Exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, Zhang Xuan opened his eyes.
Circulating his Soul Energy in his mind, Zhang Xuan walked toward the stone platform once more.
As expected, the pressure from before was gone.
He took a few steps forward and reached for the seal.
Hula!
His palm passed through the seal and landed on empty air.
"Could it be … that this thing is fake?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
To be able to emanate such a powerful aura, he had thought that it was a treasure on par with the Ancient Sage Inkstone, but who could have thought that … he would not even be able to touch it!
Could this be an illusion?
If only he had known this would happen, he would not have spent so much effort cultivating the Soul Quintessence.
He had wasted nearly ten breaths of time.
"That's not right. Could it be that … only souls can be collected?"
Helpless, Zhang Xuan was just about to turn around and leave when a thought suddenly struck him.
The pressure exerted by the Soul Imprint was real, and the pressure it exerted on one's soul was real as well. There was no way it could be faked … Since it was real, why was he unable to touch it with his hand … Could it be that the Soul Imprint was incorporeal, just like the Primordial Spirit?
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Zhang Xuan drew his soul out from his glabella once more, and with a light grasp, he felt a chilling sensation in his hand. Knowing that he had guessed correctly, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up in excitement.
Hula!
He staggered and almost fell.
"So heavy!"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
The seal did not appear to be too big, but it was actually heavier than a mountain. Even with his Introspective Convalescence realm soul cultivation, he was still caught off guard by the sight of it.
"Let me see how heavy it is!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up as he pumped his zhenqi into his body once more.
Rumble!
Zhang Xuan slowly raised the seal, and a vast amount of spiritual energy swiftly gathered toward it. Following which, he felt the pavilion beneath his feet trembling non-stop. It was as if the seal was the source of the entire pavilion's fate, and if he were to take it away, the entire pavilion would collapse.
"Oh no, someone's on the roof!"
Jiang Fangyou's face turned incomparably livid. Without any hesitation, he dashed up the stairs.
"Return!"
Zhang Xuan knew that the trembling of the pavilion would attract the attention of others. Knowing that it would be unwise for him to remain here for too long, Zhang Xuan waved his Primordial Spirit, and 'sou!', the Soul Imprint vanished before his eyes, having been stowed into his storage ring.
The pavilion shook violently, but it did not collapse as expected.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan dived his Primordial Spirit back into his glabella. Just as he was about to leave, a gust of wind suddenly blew past him.
"So fast?"
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan tapped his finger forward, and the surrounding space immediately warped. In an instant, the silhouette standing on the spot vanished from sight.
Hula!
Jiang Fangyou and Jiang Feifei walked into the room.
Looking at the empty stone platform, Jiang Fangyou's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. His body trembled uncontrollably as he swiftly spread his Spiritual Perception into the surroundings.
"Father …"
This was the first time she had seen such an expression on her father's face, and Jiang Feifei's face paled in fright.
"Go out and take a look. That person shouldn't have gotten far …"
Jiang Fangyou instructed with a cold voice.
"Yes!" Jiang Feifei nodded before heading down the stairs.
Shortly after Jiang Feifei left, Jiang Fangyou walked up to the stone platform and lightly touched its smooth surface. With a look of disbelief on his face, he bellowed furiously, "Who in the world is that person …"
Before he could finish his words, he abruptly turned around and stabbed his finger toward an empty spot not too far away.
"That fellow …"
Knowing that he could no longer be bothered with concealing himself, Zhang Xuan hurriedly leaped backward.
Not only was the other party's soul powerful, his fighting prowess was also on par with Heung Kensei and the others. Zhang Xuan had already noticed him when he scanned the area with his Primordial Spirit earlier, but he had feigned ignorance so as to make the other party lower his guard.
Si la!
The attack harnessed the wrath of a Great Sage expert, and it immediately tore a rift in the sealed space. Under the immense might, Zhang Xuan felt as if his body would explode on the spot.
"Bloodline Ignition!"
Knowing that he could very well be killed on the spot, Zhang Xuan hurriedly ignited his blood essence, and in the blink of an eye, time seemed to have slowed down.
The finger that Zhang Xuan had been unable to see clearly a moment ago suddenly froze in midair. At the same time, Jiang Fangyou's furious expression also appeared before him.
"The attack is too powerful. I won't be able to last much longer with the Time Acceleration …"
Sensing the energy fluctuations in the surroundings, Zhang Xuan felt goosebumps rising all over his body.
The last time he saw Jiang Fangyou, he had greeted him with a smile on his face, but he was unable to tell how powerful he was. Who would have thought that he would be so powerful?
This was especially so under the relentless assault of soul attacks. Even with the Time Acceleration from his Primordial Spirit, he was still unable to last much longer. Even the Spatial Seal was ineffective against him.
With a powerful soul, he would be able to suppress both space and time!
Of course, this was also because his cultivation was too low. If he had reached the same realm as Jiang Fangyou, he would have been unable to notice Jiang Fangyou's presence, let alone find him.
"Run!"
Knowing that he would not be a match for Jiang Fangyou with his current strength, Zhang Xuan immediately dashed out of the room.
Huala!
Before he could get far, the Time Acceleration was shattered by Jiang Fangyou's finger, and the spatial barrier around him shattered as if it was made of glass.
The shockwaves in the surroundings rippled nonstop, and a surge of energy struck Zhang Xuan's back, causing him to nearly spurt a mouthful of blood.
"Are you from the Zhang Clan? Or the Luo Clan? "
While Zhang Xuan was trying to escape, Jiang Fangyou was frenzied.
It was just a moment ago that Zhang Xuan had noticed the fellow hiding in the Spatial Seal, and he immediately activated his Time Acceleration to flee. After a series of clashes, he did not even manage to catch a glimpse of the other party's appearance.
Spatial Quintessence and Temporal Quintessence!
Who in the world are you?
Hula!
Paying no heed to Jiang Fangyou's question, Zhang Xuan hurriedly dashed forward.
He had already destroyed the other party's lair. If he did not escape now, the other party would not treat him to a meal …
"Where do you think you're going?"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was about to dash out of the window and enter the residence, Jiang Fangyou bellowed furiously.
Si la!
A ripple of soul energy rippled out from his body, and in the blink of an eye, it sealed the entire hall, forming a massive barrier.
"Break!"
Right after Jiang Fangyou was done, before he could even make a move, he heard Jiang Fangyou's deep voice echoing in the air. Following which, the barrier formed by his soul energy immediately shattered.
"Soul Quintessence? Y-you … Who in the world are you? "
Jiang Fangyou was stunned.
