The giant Sun was sinking. It was afternoon.
On top of the mountain peak, the silhouette of the sea had disappeared and the eight trigrams were nowhere to be seen.
Second Mysterious Ji's face was a little pale. But very quickly, it returned to its normal red color.
Prediction was a heaven-defying thing. Even the simplest thing to do was to find someone, one had to pay a price. Fortunately, Xiao Chen was able to recover very quickly from the loss of some Essence.
If this was anyone else, they would have to pay at least 10 years of their lifespan!
"Thank you, Pavilion Master, for helping me with the divination. I will remember your kindness today and never forget it in my life."
Noticing the flash of paleness on Second Mysterious Ji's face, Ling Xian felt grateful and thanked him sincerely.
"No worries."
Second Mysterious Ji brandished his hand, "As long as I am in trouble and the pavilion is in trouble in the future, you will not just stand by and watch."
"Do not worry, if that day ever comes, I will do what I did today and I will not say no." Ling Xian's expression was serious and his tone was powerful and powerful.
No matter what kind of request he will receive in the future, at least today, Second Mysterious Ji did his best. This made him very grateful. Especially when he left a mark on Yu Xun Zhen's body, he was very grateful.
Because Second Mysterious Ji didn't need to do that. As long as he could find where Yu Xun Zhen was hiding, he would have fulfilled his promise. Yet he left a mark that ensured that Ling Xian could find Yu Xun Zhen in the shortest amount of time possible.
Remember that all the top forces were searching for her as well. This little bit of time saved meant a chance of survival!
Therefore, why wouldn't Ling Xian be grateful?
However, other than being grateful, he was also a little confused. For example, why didn't Second Mysterious Ji see the representatives of the different forces and didn't return this favor to them?
"I admit that with my current capabilities, I cannot compete against the top forces. Even in the future, I may not be able to win against them."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "I wonder why you didn't choose those forces and chose me instead? After all, in every way, those forces far surpass me. "
"Three points. First, I don't want the body of the immortal path to die or become food. But due to some rules, the pavilion cannot do anything. I can only choose those who want to save her. "
"Second, based on what you are seeing, you cannot compete against any of the top forces, let alone all of them combined. But what I value is your potential, your future. "
"I believe that with your potential, your future achievements will be limitless."
"Thirdly, and also the most important point."
The Second Mystery Ji looked at Ling Xian with a smile and said something that confused him.
"You are special, unique."
Special?
One of a kind?
Ling Xian was startled and confused. He didn't understand what the Second Mystery meant.
There were too many shockingly talented individuals in this world. Just those young supreme beings for example, which one of them couldn't fight him for more than three hundred moves? Other than that, it was unknown how many supreme beings were hiding in the two realms. Not just in terms of cultivation, there were also too many powerful people in the four paths of arrays, artifacts, and talismans. It was just that no one knew about them.
Therefore, Ling Xian never thought of himself as special, let alone unique.
"Headmaster, you must be joking. Even though I have some achievements, in the entire universe, there are countless people who have surpassed me. How am I unique?" Ling Xian shook his head.
"Perhaps you haven't realized it yet, but one day, you will." Second Mystery Ji looked at Ling Xian meaningfully and exclaimed.
This made Ling Xian more and more confused, but he didn't pursue the matter.
Second Mystery Ji's words were obviously hinting at something. He didn't want to talk about it in detail, so it wasn't his place to pursue. However, he remembered this statement.
Don't forget, Second Mystery Ji's prediction skills had reached a high level, so he wasn't going to make things up for no reason.
"I really cannot think of anything that is unique about me."
Ling Xian silently chuckled and stopped thinking about it. He just assumed that Second Mystery Ji was wrong. Then, he paid his respect and asked, "Headmaster, can you tell me what the sea is called?"
"It has no name. Head east and don't make any turns. You will see it."
Second Mystery Ji spoke and pointed between Ling Xian's brows, "Alright, I have left a strand of my Qi on you. If you enter the sea, it will lead you to Yu Xun Zhen."
"Thank you, headmaster." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he revealed a bright smile.
Finding Yu Xun Zhen was already a done deal. Though this doesn't mean he will be able to get out in one piece, it was still hope. As long as there's hope, it's good.
"Next, I will have to see if I can find Yu Xun Zhen before the other forces and send her to a safe place." Ling Xian muttered to himself. Thinking about the cultivators waiting for him outside, he couldn't help but smile.
Then, he shifted his gaze towards Second Mystery Ji. His smile was bright and innocent.
"Headmaster, can you tell me where the most powerful forbidden area of the Xuanji Territory is?"
Hearing this, Second Mystery Ji was a little startled, "Why are you asking this?"
"Of course I am."
Ling Xian admitted. His smile was still as bright as ever and as pure as a child's. Anyone who sees this would never think that he was planning on tricking someone.
Also, he was planning on tricking someone.
"I understand. You are planning on telling them a fake location. You want to choose a forbidden area?" Second Mystery Ji shook his head and laughed.
"That's right. Since I am going to trick them, then I might as well do it big time."
Ling Xian's eyes flickered with coldness. Especially when he thought about how Yu Xun Zhen was covered in blood and how hopeless she looked, he was infuriated.
Therefore, he planned on luring all the different forces into the forbidden areas in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Aren't you afraid that I will tell others about this?" Second Mystery Ji teased.
"If you are going to tell others, then you wouldn't have chosen to help me in the first place." Ling Xian softly smiled. Second Mystery Ji's actions had proven that he had no intention of harming Yu Xun Zhen. On the contrary, he wanted to help her.
This was why he admitted that he wanted to trick others.
"Haha, not bad."
Second Mystery Ji laughed brightly, "Your idea isn't bad. Those forces have truly crossed the line. They should be taught a lesson."
"Then please tell me the most dangerous forbidden areas of the Xuanji Territory. It would be best if it's the type where one cannot return." Ling Xian faintly smiled.
Hearing this, Second Mystery Ji named all the famous forbidden areas of the Xuanji Territory and discussed with Ling Xian where the most suitable ones were.
The more the two talked, the more excited they got. They looked like they were on the same wavelength.
If one didn't listen to their conversation, it would be very hard to imagine that these two famous figures would gather together to trick others. They were also so excited.
If this news gets passed around, everyone's eyes would fall out of their sockets.
In the end, the two of them decided on the location of the Valley of Death.
This place wasn't the most famous forbidden area in the Xuanji Territory, nor was it the most dangerous. However, it was ranked in the top three. Even those of the seventh level wouldn't dare to enter this place.
Most importantly, the Valley of Death was the most trustworthy forbidden area. Setting it here would increase their credibility.
