Chapter 358 - 208: Yuanqiao Holy Land, Sudden Ambush_2
Chi Xiao Mountain.
Chi Xiao Sword Sect’s Chi Xiao Mountain.
Han Yi put away the Immortal Boat and stood on his sword, looking at the mountain range ahead with a puzzled face.
“Yuan Lao Mountain.”
“Why did Yan Ru come to Yuan Lao Mountain?”
That’s right, the mountain range in front of Han Yi was the Yuan Lao Mountain Range.
However, this mountain range was not the same as the ordinary ones. It looked like a destroyed and truncated mountain range, pieced together piece by piece. It looked less like a mountain range and more like a collection of bizarre peaks and cliffs, with valleys running between them. Reformed after a fault, it appeared extremely contradictory.
In the Yuan Lao Mountain range, there were broken palaces, collapsed towers, and slanted stone statues everywhere.
Trembling with excitement, these were the shards of a fallen sacred place in the past hundred years.
However.
These sacred shards were already searched through by countless cultivators, and even the broken copper and rotten iron were taken away. If Han Yi really wanted to gain something from Yuan Lao Mountain, he could only hope that new sacred shards would fall.
Han Yi held the black box in his hand, with the bloodstained cloth inside still lying quietly. According to the Yi Yao Secret Skill calculations, Yan Ru’s aura disappeared in this complex mountain range.
Han Yi suddenly remembered that when he returned to Jinyun Immortal City from Tian Nan Immortal City in Daqin Immortal Country, he encountered four loose cultivators from Luoxia Mountain on the Immortal Boat.
These four loose cultivators were preparing to go to Yuan Lao Mountain to search for the newly emerged sacred shards.
Han Yi didn’t expect that he would also come to this place under such circumstances.
However.
It had been a year and a half since he returned to Daqian from Tian Nan Immortal City, and the four loose cultivators he had encountered should have left by now.
Han Yi’s eyes flashed with a faint golden light as he scanned Yuan Lao Mountain. He discovered that in the sky of Yuan Lao Mountain, there were faint broken spirit light, permeating in mid-air.
Continuing to look forward and downward, this fragmented spirit light was intermittent and unstructured.
“This should be the sacred shards that have reconnected with the Yu Heng World. However, only spirit light is seeping through, and it’s still unknown how long it will take for the real shards to fall.”
“Furthermore, the space here is very strange. Even Spirit Transformation Experts don’t want to interfere too much, let alone me.”
After returning to the Profound Immortal Pavilion in Qian Du from Tian Nan Immortal City, Han Yi had also learned about Yuan Lao Mountain.
What the four loose cultivators said was true. When the sacred shards first appeared on Yuan Lao Mountain that year, Duke An of Daqian and the Spirit Transformation Experts of Daqian’s two sacred lands personally came to this place.
However, after some attempts, they quietly withdrew.
It was rumored that the space fissure that had dragged Yuan Lao’s sacred place into its midst thousands of years ago was still quite dangerous. Even Spirit Transformation Experts risked their lives entering it, but as long as they climbed another thousand years, the largest shard would be squeezed out and blocked by the space fissure, making it safe at that time.
Therefore, in fact, the sacred shards that were now spat out from the space fissure belonged to the relatively peripheral area of Yuan Lao’s sacred place. Even if there were some core shards, they would only be pursued by Nascent Soul True Monarchs and were far from enough for the Spirit Transformation Experts to take action.
With the information about Yuan Lao Mountain floating in his mind, Han Yi first used the Disguise Technique to change his appearance and aura, and then plunged straight into the mountain range.
Since Yan Ru’s aura disappeared in Yuan Lao Mountain, as long as he searched harder, he might be able to find her, and if there were any clues, that would be best.
It was a vast area in Yuan Lao Mountain, and Han Yi estimated that he would need at least a month to explore the entire mountain range.
One day later.
On the periphery of Yuan Lao Mountain, a cultivator in a black robe held a formation plate in his hand. Within the plate, there was a blood-red liquid pointing to the mountain range ahead.
He put away the Immortal Boat and held the formation plate while hovering in the air, his face solemn.
“I didn’t expect Han Yi to be so fast. If it weren’t for the Mother-and-Child Blood Murder Plate, I wouldn’t have been able to catch up.”
“No wonder he could kill Lu Jie.”
“But he actually came to Yuan Lao Mountain.”
“It seems that Han Yi is tracking the aura of the bloodstained cloth with a secret technique, which is why he arrived here without any hesitation.”
“I miscalculated.”
Wen Zhen’s face was filled with anger.
As one of the thirty-three hall masters of the Fragrance Sect, he had three identities. One was the Supreme Elder of the Ruthless Sect, a Golden Core Sect in Daqian. The second was one of the thirty-three hall masters of the Fragrance Sect, and the third was a loose cultivator in the Sixth Immortal Ring of Shu Du.
These three identities all corresponded to different names and appearances.
However, he used the Ruthless Sect’s Supreme Elder identity while traveling outside, and his name was Wen Zhen.
Ever since four years ago.
Some clues appeared in the Fragrance Sect, and one of the eight protectors personally ordered Han Yi of the Heavenly Will Sect to be killed. The secret record also included Han Yi’s identity and the feat of killing Lu Jie, who was also a hall master, with the Foundation Building Middle Level.
The numerous hall masters gathered information and infiltrated the Heavenly Will Sect, only to find that there was no such person.
Three years ago, a message was released that corrected Han Yi’s identity and changed him from a cultivator of the Heavenly Will Sect to a cultivator of the Xuandan Sect. It even mentioned his ninth place in the Qianlong List.
Although they didn’t know why Han Yi’s identity was so dramatic, several relatively idle Golden Core Hall Masters turned their attention to the Xuandan Sect.
Wen Zhen was one of them.
Later, through various investigations and infiltrations, he learned that although Han Yi was in Qian Du, he had been inquiring about a female cultivator named Yan Ru all the time..
