The cold moon was like a hook as rays of cold light scattered across the lonely valley. The waterfall fell from the sky, crashing onto the lake's surface.
Li Gan stood in the middle of the waterfall and once again began his crazy training against the huge rock.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
One heavy punch after another landed on the boulder.
The sound of the waterfall crashing down naturally drowned out Li Gan's screams. However, Li Gan's iron fists did not stop at all as he continued to punch out with all his might.
The torrential waterfall hit Li Gan crazily, and the impact of the strong water flow was more than a thousand pounds. Li Gan circulated his spirit energy to resist, and at the same time, he punched out, using his unique cultivation method to temper his body.
Time quickly passed. After an unknown amount of time, Li Gan felt a trace of warmth from the Baibao pouch at his waist.
He reached into the Baibao pouch and took out the jade seal he had obtained from Yu Xue. He circulated his spiritual energy and slowly poured it into the seal. In an instant, the jade seal emitted a lustrous light and a series of densely packed characters drilled into Li Gan's mind.
"Wind Chasing Technique!?"
Li Gan was overjoyed. Who would have thought that his special training would unintentionally remove the seal on the jade seal?
Thinking back to Yu Xue's swift movement technique, Li Gan looked at the jade seal in his hand and couldn't help but click his tongue.
… …
In the dense forest outside the valley, a group of black figures flew over. A group of black-clothed people stopped at the place where the Rainbow Fairies had just fought.
An old man in a black cloak waved his hand to stop the group. Behind him was a beautiful woman and thirty or so black-clothed men. They were escorting seventeen or eighteen unconscious youths.
This group of people was the mysterious organization that had arrested the Jeju Union's Spirit Tempering disciples.
Sun Ya took off her fanged mask, revealing a flawless and delicate face. Her thin, curved eyebrows were like broken hooks in the air. Under the moonlight, her pair of beautiful eyes were mesmerizing. However, no one dared to take a second look at her. They all lowered their heads in awe.
"The Ji Province has sent eight powerful Golden Deities experts. Among them, there are two troublesome figures. One of them is the Li family's Honorary Elder, Li Zhenbei, and the other is the Jeju Union's Elder, Wei Hongchen."
Li Zhenbei? Wei Hongchen? These are the Ji Province's two Golden Deities experts!
When everyone heard these two names, the expression in their eyes changed, and an indescribable shock emerged in their hearts.
Just these two Great Golden Deity level masters were enough to contend against this group of people, not to mention that there were still six masters among them.
"Is the information accurate?" The black-clothed old man asked with an ashen face.
"It is. This is what our spies in the Jeju Union personally saw. Elder Duan, we've already caught eighteen late-stage Deity children. I believe the other groups have also caught something. We should be able to gather ninety-nine children. Shouldn't we stop the operation?" Sun Ya asked softly. Even though she hated the rookie Li Gan to the bone and was unwilling to quit, the Jeju Union sending out such a group had exceeded her expectations.
Two Golden Deities and six early Golden Deities. This kind of group was far beyond her imagination. Not to mention, it had even alarmed the Li family.
Li Zhenbei was one of Li Shi Saint's trusted aides. He was also a famed bloodthirsty god in the Ji Province. He had killed countless people in his life. His personality was cruel, but his strength was great. He was loyal to Li Shi Saint and was definitely a very difficult person to deal with.
If the two sides encountered each other, Wei Hong Chen or Li Zhenbei would be able to hold off Elder Duan. With the strength of either one of them, they would be able to slaughter the entire group.
Since they had already succeeded, it was time to discuss whether they should leave or stay.
"Why did Li Zhenbei come? Could it be for that girl from the Li family, Li Shuyi? That doesn't make sense. Even if that girl is extremely talented, that old man Li Shi Saint wouldn't make such a big fuss for a girl with an unknown future. "
"Could it be for the Second Young Master Li, Li Gan? He also participated in the Spirit Forging Ceremony. "When she mentioned Li Gan's name, Sun Ya's expression was indescribably strange.
"Li Gan?" Elder Duan softly repeated the name twice. He lowered his head and thought for a while, "You're talking about Li Shi Saint, the infamous brat in the Ji Province?"
"If it wasn't that brat, who else could it be?! At first, I didn't recognize that brat. Not only is he a brat, he's also shameless. It was he who repeatedly used treacherous and cunning methods to cause our people to suffer losses. That was why we were able to let those disciples escape. Even I was tricked by that brat! "Sun Ya said through gritted teeth.
"That Li Gan is a famous hedonistic brat in the Ji Province. He only knows how to go back and forth between brothels and restaurants. Are you sure it's him?" Elder Duan frowned slightly.
"If Elder Duan doesn't believe me, you can wake up the two disciples who were traveling with them. Once you interrogate them, you'll know. That bastard is definitely Li Gan."
"A mere Son of God was able to cause our carefully planned plans to fail time and time again. From what I can see, this Li Gan isn't a simple hedonistic brat. Could it be that Li Shi Saint secretly nurtured him? Or could it be that this brat was born with a natural talent and was only pretending to be a hedonistic brat on the surface? The Li family has always been our biggest stumbling block. It seems like we need to re-investigate the Li family. "Elder Duan's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"Elder Duan, that brat is hiding in the depths of the Phoenix Ridge Forest. According to our informants, among the people rescued by the Ji Province Law Protector, there really wasn't any trace of Li Gan. With his ability, it's unknown whether he's alive or dead. Why don't we … "Sun Ya suggested once again.
"No!" Elder Duan immediately cut off the other's words. His old face was filled with determination. "According to what you said, that female Law Protector and that brat were together. She might have guessed your identity. That brat also stole the Baibao pouch from our people. You should be clear that this operation is top secret. Once they meet up with Wei Hong Chen and the others, at that time, things will become very unfavorable for us. Not only will we be punished, I'm afraid that it will also alert the Northern Region Lord. At that time … "
"Elder Duan is still the most meticulous. What do you think we should do?"
"This isn't a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. With our strength, even if the female guardian guessed your identity, she wouldn't dare to say anything. Even if she wanted to tell someone else, she would probably only tell the leader of the Jizhou Alliance. As for that brat from the Li family, even though he is Li Shi Saint's treasure, if the Li family can't survive in Ji Province because of him alone, that old man from the Li family will consider which is more important and which is less important. "
"Elder Duan's meaning is to put pressure on the Li family and the Jeju Union?" Sun Ya's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. This was really the best plan for both America and America.
"We can make many preparations. First, we will continue to search for the fish that escaped the net in Phoenix Ridge. Once we find them, we will kill them on the spot. Then, we will notify the organization and arrange for people to intentionally stop the Jeju Union's leader and the Li family's ancestor from entering the Northern Region. We will cut off the possibility of the female Law Protector and Li Gan reporting us to them. We will arrange for people to find a suitable opportunity to get rid of that brat and the female Law Protector. Once and for all. Also, in order to prevent our operation from being exposed, request the organization to send more experts over to find Li Zhenbei and Wei Hong Chen's group. Kill them all and completely cover up this matter."
"Okay, I will arrange it right away!" Sun Ya nodded.
"Wait, Eldest Miss, you must report the severity of this matter to the organization in detail. If that brat Li Gan really falls into our hands, then it will be easy to deal with him. I'm just afraid that he will meet up with Li Zhenbei. Therefore, I think it is necessary to ask the Lord to personally make a trip."
"Elder Duan's words are reasonable. I will arrange for people to report the truth. I believe that Lord Father will make the right choice!"
"Good." Elder Duan nodded. Looking into the depths of the forest, his eyes flickered with uncertainty. "Phoenix Ridge's terrain is undulating and the forest is dense. The more they blindly run away, the harder it will be for us to track them down. Where are these people hiding?"
Everyone was silent. No one answered. It was probably because of the difference in status!
Sun Ya followed Elder Duan's instructions and took out a yellow paper talisman. Circulating her spiritual energy, she quickly wrote on the paper talisman. Rays of silver light drilled into the paper talisman and disappeared without a trace. The paper talisman once again returned to its original appearance.
When everyone saw the paper talisman, their expressions changed slightly. It must be known that the talisman that Sun Ya used to transmit information was a Concealing Talisman that was worth thousands of gold taels. This kind of talisman was rarely seen even in the black market. It could be seen that this matter was extremely confidential.
After Sun Ya sent a man in black to take the Concealing Talisman away, she came to Elder Duan's side and stood quietly on the side.
"Now, where should we start?" Elder Duan stared into the depths of the forest and asked faintly.
"Elder Duan, I have a suggestion." Sun Ya replied softly.
"Speak!"
"They just escaped from here not long ago. As long as we activate the Spirit Concentration Detection Technique and cover a radius of ten miles, we will see where they can hide."
Elder Duan frowned slightly and appeared to be a little hesitant. After a full fifteen minutes, he nodded.
When everyone heard about the Spirit Concentration Detection Technique, their expressions changed involuntarily. However, they still took the initiative to sit cross-legged around Elder Duan in the valley. Sun Ya and the other late Heaven Gods surrounded Elder Duan within a radius of ten feet. The rest of the early and middle Heaven Gods spread out in all directions. Everyone held a spell flag in their hands and sat cross-legged in specific positions. From afar, these people seemed to have formed a strange formation.
"… Spirit Concentration Detection Technique …" Elder Duan closed his eyes and concentrated. Circulating his spiritual energy, it flowed along the spell flag in his hand. A ball of white mist suddenly emerged from the spell flag and encircled Elder Duan.
"Rise!" Sun Ya shouted loudly and also circulated her spiritual energy. The spell flag in her hand also formed the same mist.
"Rise!"
More than thirty people shouted at the same time and circulated their spiritual energy with all their might. Balls of white mist suddenly spewed out from the spell flags in everyone's hands. From afar, it looked like the eyes of a formation had been activated.
The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the valley seemed to be attracted and suddenly gathered towards the place where everyone was sitting cross-legged.
"Open!"
Elder Duan shouted again. A thread of spiritual energy poured into the spell flag from his hand. The Spiritual Qi in the valley suddenly sped up and a huge current of air rushed towards the elder.
A small portion of the remaining Spiritual Qi was distributed to Sun Ya and the other late Heaven Gods. The rest of the Spiritual Qi flowed towards the outermost black-clothed people.
"Everyone, let's work together and activate the formation!"
Elder Duan urged. He did not dare to be careless. His fingers moved continuously and balls of white mist spewed out from the spell flag in his hand.
The others also felt that their bodies were filled with spiritual energy. They held onto the spell flag and concentrated their Spiritual Qi. Then, they pointed at the spell flag in front of them.
In just a moment, the white mist actually filled the valley and started to spread in all directions. Everyone's mind was filled with the images of the grass and trees in the valley.
Elder Duan's expression became extremely serious. Naturally, he could see everything in the valley clearly. Everyone was expending so much of their Spiritual Qi. Naturally, they did not want to end up empty-handed.
"Everyone, hold on a little longer. Expand the search area!" Elder Duan shouted again. He opened his mouth and bit his finger. Then, with the tip of his index finger, a drop of sparkling blood appeared on the spell flag.
"Go!"
The old man surnamed Duan let out another loud shout and the lump of Essence Blood abruptly drilled into the mist. The mist within the valley suddenly sped up and flew in all directions. In just a short amount of time, the mist had already spread from the direction of the valley to a radius of over a dozen miles.
Eh?
At this moment, Elder Duan seemed to have discovered something. He stopped his finger and the mist in the forest suddenly stopped moving. A white-clothed man appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.
They saw the white-clothed man put two fingers together. A green light shot out from his hand and cut a man not far away into two.
"It's him?"
Elder Duan's expression changed greatly. His eyebrows were knitted together.
Everyone felt a miserable and cold aura from the white-clothed man.
The white-clothed man seemed to have discovered something strange in the mist. He suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Elder Duan and the others.
"Oh no!"
Elder Duan muttered and hurriedly closed his eyes. His face had become abnormally pale.
The others could feel the aura of death in the white-clothed man's cold eyes. He was like the Grim Reaper who had walked out of hell.
"Ah!"
A few screams sounded. A few men with lower cultivations seemed to have suffered serious injuries. They opened their mouths and spat out mouthfuls of blood. Their bodies were on the verge of collapsing.
"Who is he?" Sun Ya's pale face was especially grave.
"The White-Clothed Impermanence, Yue Feiyang!"
"It's him? Why would he come to Phoenix Ridge?! "
