"There is indeed such a thing. Moreover, my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's Elder Taishang Xi also perished." Ning Cheng thought that Tan Yun already knew who the culprit was, and also did not conceal it.
"Actually, it is true that the Shattered Canopy Mountain has a Spiritual Vein."
As Tan Yun spoke, her eyes were looking at Ning Cheng. Seeing Ning Cheng's calm expression, she asked with some doubts, "Did you know about this matter?"
Ning Cheng smiled, "My Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's Grand Elder is not an idiot. If it were a fake Spiritual Vein, would my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect even have four Grand Elders?"
"Also, in fact, many people know that the Shattered Canopy Mountains Spiritual Vein is real, but no one knows where this Spiritual Vein is located. The Shattered Canopy Mountains stretched for millions of miles and was one of the three major mountain ranges of the Tian Continent. Coupled with the fact that the Shattered Canopy Mountains are filled with Natural Restrictions and Monstrous Beast Caves, it is definitely not easy to find a Spiritual Vein concealed by a Natural Array Formation. "Dan Yun nodded and spoke.
"I wonder why Senior Sister Dan is looking for me?"
"This time, someone might be able to find the approximate location of the Shattered Canopy Mountains' Spiritual Vein. At that time, many people would definitely try to snatch it. I hope that I can cooperate with Sect Master Ning and get a share of the pie."
Ning Cheng showed a faint smile, "Senior Apprentice Sister Dan, I am just a cultivator at the early stages of the Sea Opening Realm, while you are just a cultivator at the 1st Level of the Sea Opening Realm, which is even lower than me. Even if I could kill an ordinary Crucible Transformation Cultivator, do you think that we would be able to snatch the Spiritual Vein from the hands of so many people? Besides, your Great Change Island should have a lot of Crucible Transformation Cultivators, right? Although I have always regarded Senior Apprentice Sister Dan as a friend, but I do not believe that Senior Apprentice Sister Dan's trust in me is even more than the trust in the Crucible Transformation Cultivators of the Great Change Island. "
Ning Cheng did not have anything to hide, it was a fact. Even if he was more powerful, in the end, he was only equivalent to a Crucible Transformation Cultivator. There were definitely cultivators stronger than him on the Great Change Island. Would Dan Yun give up the easy and ask for the difficult? Would she rather give the benefits to him? Therefore, he didn't even bother to ask who could find the location of the spirit vein.
Tan Yun seemed to be aware of Ning Cheng's thoughts, as she gave out a sigh and spoke, "I did not want to speak about the matters within the academy. If my father was still in the academy, then even if the Red Star Sword Faction was even more ruthless, even if Jiang Jun's backer was even more powerful, my Great Change Island would still have forced the Red Star Sword Faction to hand over Jiang Jun. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to make them listen to me. I can only rely on myself. Besides, this Spiritual Vein was obtained by the academy's Crucible Transformation Elder, this … … "
Tan Yun did not continue, but Ning Cheng already understood the meaning behind the other party's words. The internal structure of the Great Change Island was not a monolithic monolith. Jiang Jun had killed Tan Yun's younger sister, Tan Yushan, and there was already iron-clad evidence. Yet, the Great Change Island was still unable to force the Red Star Sword Faction to hand over Jiang Jun. This indicated that there was definitely something strange going on. Tan Yun's cultivation was too low, and since the Academy had not reached an agreement, she was powerless to do anything.
Once Tan Yun asked the academy's elders to come forward and seize the Spiritual Vein, not to mention whether or not they could obtain the Spiritual Vein, even if they could obtain it, they would at least get a portion of it from the academy. If Tan Yun wanted to take revenge by herself, then she would have to obtain the Spiritual Vein by herself.
Tan Yun's words caused Ning Cheng to feel somewhat disappointed. He was looking forward to attacking the Red Star Sword Faction in the future. He did not expect that the Great Change Island would turn out to be so weak.
If someone from the Red Star Sword Faction had killed a disciple from the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, then with conclusive evidence, Ning Cheng would absolutely demand the Red Star Sword Faction to hand over the culprit. Even if the other party did not hand it over, he would still make a public statement that he would definitely destroy the Red Star Sword Faction in the future.
In contrast, the Great Change Island truly was weak. No wonder Tan Yun wanted to forcibly advance to the 1st Level of the Sea Opening Realm. If she wanted to avenge her little sister, then she could only rely on herself.
Seeing Ning Cheng somewhat disappointed, Tan Yun continued, "Your cultivation is higher than me, equivalent to a Crucible Transformation Cultivator. This time, I will provide the information, while you provide the main force. No matter how many Spiritual Veins you obtain, you can just give me a third of it. "
"I understand. You can tell me who can find the Spiritual Vein, and how did you know about it?" Ning Cheng had already decided to join forces with Tan Yun. Tan Yun was not greedy; she only wanted a third. If she wanted to divide it equally, then Ning Cheng would definitely not agree.
"How I came to know about it, I cannot tell you. I can only tell you that the one who took action was the Tian Continent's Premier Array Formation Grand Master, Wu Mao. This time, three Crucible Transformation Cultivators came looking for him. They were prepared to join forces to find the Spiritual Vein. After finding the Spiritual Vein, they would divide it into five portions, with Wu Mao taking two. If we cooperate, then we just need to follow them. "Tan Yun spoke with certainty.
"Okay, I agree. When do we set off?" Ning Cheng could see that Tan Yun was not lying, and was telling the truth.
Ning Cheng also knew about this person called Wu Mao. He was indeed the Tian Continent's Premier Array Formation Grand Master. He had heard that he could arrange Rank 9 Array Formations. Moreover, his strength was also extremely powerful, with the cultivation of Crucible Transformation 4th Level.
"Let's go now, then hide in the Shattered Canopy Mountains. Once Wu Mao and the others arrive, we can carefully follow them." Tan Yun spoke without hesitation.
… …
The Shattered Canopy Mountain, just like its name suggested, had an endless mountain range that covered almost everything.
Some rogue cultivators were searching for some low-levelled Monstrous Beasts and Spiritual Grasses at the edge of the Shattered Canopy Mountains. From time to time, bursts of beast roars could be heard coming from the depths of the mountain range. Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness was also greatly reduced in this kind of place.
After Ning Cheng arrived at this place, he finally understood why the top cultivators could not even find a single Spiritual Vein. Wanting to find a Spiritual Vein in this place was indeed very difficult.
Tan Yun obviously had not come to the Shattered Canopy Mountains for the first time; as such, she was very familiar with this place. Even after leading Ning Cheng for half a day, they did not encounter even a single Monstrous Beast blocking their way.
"We will hide here." Tan Yun stopped next to a large patch of thorns and spoke.
"How did you know that they would come here? The Shattered Canopy Mountains are simply too big, if they did not meet here, wouldn't it be a waste of our time? "Ning Cheng asked in doubt.
"They will definitely meet here. The news that I obtained is that they will meet at the entrance of the Mist Gorge. The entrance to the Mist Gorge is just in front of us. Our cultivations are a bit lacking, as such we can only hide our auras and hide here. We cannot get too close. "
Saying that, Tan Yun took out a medicinal pill and handed it to Ning Cheng, "This is a Form Changing Pill. It can change a person's appearance and aura for 24 hours. This pill is very rare. Once they find the Spiritual Vein, we can just grab it and leave. As long as you block them for ten breaths of time, I am confident that I can intercept a part of the Spiritual Vein, and then we can meet at the agreed place. "
The Form Changing Pill was a Rank 7 Medicinal Pill, which was very precious for Tan Yun. However, Ning Cheng had a bottle of it in his Storage Ring. However, he still put away Tan Yun's Form Changing Pill and asked, "Are you going to use a Talisman to escape?"
Tan Yun nodded, "Yes, I can only walk away alone. I believe that once the Spiritual Vein appears, they will definitely focus on the Spiritual Vein, and will not besiege you. At that time, it would be the best time for you to escape. Of course, if you feel that you are not sure, you can also withdraw now. "
"No, I agree. Since I am going to get a bigger share of the Spiritual Vein, it is only natural for me to bear a bigger risk. " Ning Cheng spoke up without hesitation. He possessed the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Fate. If he could not escape from the siege of a few Crucible Transformation Cultivators, then he might as well buy a piece of tofu.
… …
With Ning Cheng and Tan Yun concealing their auras and hiding under the thistles and thorns, the surroundings once again regained its tranquility, without even a single sound. A day passed by in this way. Tan Yun had spoken about the Mist Gorge, but not even a single person's shadow came to this place. Even monstrous beasts did not pass through this place.
As the second and third day passed by, Ning Cheng was not in a hurry. Not to mention hiding for three days, even if he had to hide for 30 days, he would not care. Tan Yun, however, could not help it. It was reasonable to say that someone would come the next day. Now that three or four days had passed, could it be that they were too late, and Wu Mao and the others had already left?
Tan Yun was just about to send a sound transmission to Ning Cheng, when Ning Cheng made a gesture to her. Tan Yun quickly stopped the sound transmission and concealed her aura. She soon discovered that there was another layer of concealment covering her body. She immediately understood that Ning Cheng did not believe in her concealment technique, and had helped her add another layer of concealment.
Ning Cheng truly did not believe in Tan Yun's concealment cultivation method. This place was very close to the Mist Gorge, and Tan Yun's aura was somewhat overflowing. He did not want to fight against four Crucible Transformation Cultivators.
After a few breaths, two Taoist shadows landed at the entrance of the Mist Gorge. After these two Taoist shadows landed, their Spiritual Consciousnesses instantly swept out.
Feeling the powerful Spiritual Consciousnesses, Ning Cheng secretly felt that it was a close call. Fortunately, he had helped Tan Yun add a layer of concealment. At this moment, he did not observe the appearance and cultivation of these two cultivators. Although he believed that his Spiritual Consciousness would not be discovered, he did not want to do such a meaningless thing. If he tried to observe the other party's concentration, then in case he was discovered, it would be a waste of all his efforts.
These two Spiritual Consciousnesses apparently did not care much about it. After sweeping through the thistles and thorns covering Ning Cheng and Tan Yun, they quickly withdrew. The two of them did not have to wait for long, when another Taoist shadow arrived. The three of them whispered a few words together, and after the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the fourth Taoist shadow landed.
After the four of them gathered together, they only exchanged a few words before they instantly entered the Mist Gorge.
Ning Cheng did not immediately follow them. Instead, he sent a sound transmission to Tan Yun, "Wait for me. Don't go more than ten steps behind me. At the same time, do not use your Spiritual Consciousness to track the four people in front of you. Leave the tracking to me."
In fact, Ning Cheng wanted Tan Yun to leave immediately, while he followed them alone. However, he also knew that Tan Yun would not leave. She did not trust him that much.
"Okay, I know." Tan Yun replied without hesitation. She was secretly rejoicing in her heart that she had asked Ning Cheng for help. She had overestimated her concealment technique and cultivation. If not for Ning Cheng's help, even if she hid here without being discovered, she would not have been able to track the four people in front of her.
Ning Cheng was extremely careful with his Spiritual Consciousness. Although he only had the cultivation of 3rd Level of Sea Opening Realm, his Spiritual Consciousness was not the Spiritual Consciousness of a Sea Opening Realm cultivator. Not only that, but because of the Mysterious Yellow Formless Cultivation Method, his Spiritual Consciousness could also become invisible and formless. Tracking four Crucible Transformation Cultivators, as long as he was careful, there would not be any problems.
What surprised Ning Cheng was that he knew one of the four people. It was a beautiful woman, Sang Jiezhu of the Floating Snow Palace. This Sang Jiezhu was said to be the Seventh Palace Master of the Floating Snow Palace. She was also the woman who had gone to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect to help him, allowing Yin Kongchan to marry him.
One of the other three was a middle-aged cultivator with a long beard, with the cultivation of Crucible Transformation 6th Level. The other was a short and thin man, with the cultivation of Crucible Transformation 5th Level. The fourth person was the one that attracted Ning Cheng's attention the most. This was a cultivator with a red face holding a compass in his hand, with the cultivation of Crucible Transformation 4th Level. Ning Cheng, from the gestures of this person, as well as the continuous action of throwing out Array Flags, guessed that this person was definitely the Tian Continent's Premier Array Formation Grand Master, Wu Mao.
