Chapter 64: Earthquake The spiritual veins of the continent are hidden here.
We are in the westernmost desert, thousands of miles away from Tianyan Sect. We need to use the teleportation array when coming here, and we naturally need it when returning.
Mu Fuyun didn't have time to inform Jiang Hanqiu and others. He immediately helped Xie Hanyi out of the house and flew towards the entrance of the town where the teleportation array was located on his sword.
Along the way, Xie Hanyi's whole body was scalded by the heat, but he kept his eyes lowered, said nothing, and pursed his thin lips without leaving a gap.
Even in such an embarrassing and painful situation, he remained so restrained.
Mu Fuyun looked at the dense beads of sweat on his forehead, and supported his palm. Even through the Taoist robe, he could feel the scorching heat underneath. He couldn't help but feel confused, and many details of his daily life inexplicably came to his mind.
For example, his long years of seclusion, his seclusion, the smell of frost and snow all over his body, and the Lingshanze that is always covered with ice and snow...
She had guessed before that there might be some unknown reason why he didn't leave Lingshanze or Tianyan, and now it seemed to be true.
The sudden high fever must be related to his rash departure from Tianyan.
"Master, please wait a moment. We will be able to enter the teleportation array soon."
She suppressed the trembling in her heart, gritted her teeth and continued to increase the speed of flying the sword, heading straight south.
As they flew over the streets and alleys, the Tianyan disciples who were patrolling and helping to appease the townspeople looked up and looked at their movements in surprise.
Looking up from their perspective, they could only see Mu Fuyun and Xie Hanyi standing side by side, very close to each other, flying past quickly on their swords. They didn't know what was happening, but judging from the direction, they should be heading towards the teleportation array.
Someone looked around, touched his head, and said hesitantly, "What's going on? Should we follow and ask?"
After all, they both just came back from the Demon Realm. If they get injured or something else happens, everyone can help them.
The others also agreed. Chu Ye calmly stepped forward and said to everyone, "Since that's the case, I'll go and check out the situation. You all just stay here and wait for my news."
No one else suspected anything and nodded in agreement.
Just when Chu Ye was about to fly his sword to catch up, Jiang Hanqiu came over from a distance and stopped him.
"No need to ask. With your Uncle Xie here, aren't you worried? It's just that Junior Brother Mu suffered some hardships in the Demon Realm, and he needs to return to the sect to recuperate as soon as possible."
"Well, that's right. This is the Westernmost Part after all. It's not as quiet as the sect, and there aren't as many elixirs, spiritual plants, and secret treasures as in the sect. It's better to go back." Yu Cen thought it made sense.
When the others saw that it was the elder who spoke, they naturally had no objection. They just thought that Jiang Hanqiu must know something to be so confident.
Only Jiang Hanqiu knew that he was not at all reassured, on the contrary, he was very worried.
She didn't know what had happened, but as an elder, her cultivation was much higher than these disciples, and her five senses were naturally more acute.
Just now, they didn't see it clearly, but she saw clearly that the problem was not with Mu Fuyun, but with Xie Hanyi.
The best sword in the world, everyone in Tianyan, including the head, had to look up to him, lamenting that they were far behind him. With him, Tianyan could become one of the three major sects, and others would not dare to challenge Tianyan's authority at will.
But just now, he looked grim, and was sweating all over, and he could only stand steadily with the help of his apprentice.
This matter not only concerns Tianyan's face and comfort, but also Xie Hanyi's own safety.
Jiang Hanqiu didn't know the inside story, but he had heard some rumors in the sect. It seemed that in order to save Xie Hanyi, the previous leader Qi Guiyuan had spent most of his cultivation and almost used all his strength to stabilize his meridians. Since then, Xie Hanyi has been living in seclusion in a cave and has never been seen again.
He must have some old injuries that are unknown to outsiders, and now he is in a hurry to go back, which may be a relapse of the old injuries.
Only the head brother can help with this matter.
Jiang Hanqiu remained expressionless. Seeing that none of his disciples wanted to chase him and ask, he took out the jade communication token from his mustard seed bag and passed the message to Qi Yuanbai.
At this moment, a huge shock suddenly came from under the calm sand, as if something was passing under the thick sand, surging like waves, or crashing like rocks.
There was a sudden tremor between heaven and earth.
The people in the town, who had finally been pacified, were frightened again and ran out of their houses, looking around and running away aimlessly.
"The earth is shaking! The earth is shaking!"
"A disaster from heaven!"
Some people were running away in a panic, shouting loudly.
Earthquakes, like floods and droughts, are feared by everyone, especially these weak mortals. Once a larger earthquake occurs, countless people will be killed or injured.
The monks are strong and healthy and are rarely injured by this.
However, the vibration just now was a little different.
The more than ten cultivators present could all clearly feel that beneath the vibration, there was also the fluctuation and emergence of spiritual power.
"The continent's spiritual veins are hidden here..."
One of the disciples murmured.
Everyone else heard it and looked at each other in confusion. No one spoke, and they all released their spiritual senses completely, trying to capture all the changes in the spiritual energy around them.
The spiritual veins not only allow cultivators to absorb the essence of heaven and earth and advance in their cultivation, but are also the foundation of peace and tranquility for the entire continent. Once any abnormal movement occurs, if one is not careful, the sky will collapse and the earth will split, and everything will be reduced to ashes.
The monks did not dare to take it lightly. As long as there was another earthquake, they would immediately set up a formation to protect the people of Beiwu Town first, and then find ways to protect the spiritual veins.
This is countless times more difficult than the previous task of exorcising demons.
Fortunately, they held their breath and waited nervously for a moment, and even tried to probe under the sand to feel the fluctuations, but the expected earthquake did not come again.
Someone couldn't hold it in any longer, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It should be just an ordinary earthquake, and it doesn't involve the spiritual veins anymore."
The others waited for a while, and when they saw that there was indeed no movement, they were completely relieved and dispersed to appease the people in the town.
On the other side, Mu Fuyun, who was flying on a sword, also noticed the earthquake under the sand.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when the earthquake happened, Xie Hanyi’s body shook and he almost fell down.
Fortunately, she was quick-witted and grabbed the man, then cast two spells in a row, turning the water in the water bag into ice cubes and stuffing them into Xie Hanyi's hands.
The burning palms of my hands were cooled down by the cold ice, and I felt relieved immediately. I quickly held the ice cube to my forehead and pressed it tightly against it.
The ice melted into water droplets, flowing down his forehead and cheeks, finally suppressing some of his pain.
Even though it was just a drop in the bucket, it was enough to stop my sanity from fading.
He calmed himself down and tried to stay awake until he entered the teleportation array. When he felt he could no longer hold on, he mustered his last bit of willpower, sealed his meridians, and fell into a coma.
“Master!”
Feeling Xie Hanyi's unconsciousness, Mu Fuyun's heart tightened and he hugged him tightly until he landed at the other end of the teleportation array. He hurriedly called out to him loudly, trying to wake him up.
"Stop shouting."
A cold and tense voice came from above, and then a familiar figure fell from a height.
"If you don't want him to get into trouble, don't say anything and don't waste time."
The person who came was Qi Yuanbai, who had received the news from Jiang Hanqiu. At this moment, he didn't even bother to look at Mu Fuyun. He just stared at Xie Hanyi who was hugged by her, stretched out his hand, took the person over, turned around and went to Lingshanze.
Mu Fuyun had no good feelings towards Qi Yuanbai, but at the moment, despite having countless doubts in her heart, she knew that it was indeed as Qi Yuanbai said, that she should not waste time, so she followed him on her sword without saying a word.
Lingshanze is located slightly off the beaten track, and you can only see the water after passing through the mountains and forests.
Qi Yuanbai stopped at the water's edge without any hesitation and pushed the unconscious Xie Hanyi into the water.
Although the air was freezing cold all around, there was no ice on the surface of the water. Xie Hanyi had half of his body submerged in the water and the other half above it, with his head lowered, looking shaky.
"Go get the Lotus Cold Frost Pills." Qi Yuanbai sat on the ground, crossed his legs, and pointed his palms at Xie Hanyi's back. After giving the order in a cold voice, he held his breath and concentrated, practicing Qigong and regulating Xie Hanyi's breathing.
Mu Fuyun was stunned. He didn't expect that Xie Hanyi would also need the Lotus Frost Pill. No wonder she carried one with her when she first met her.
There was no time to think about why he would take such a pill. She hurried into the cave and entered Xie Hanyi's private vault, which she had entered last time. She found Lengshuang Pills in the place where the pills were stored, brought them to the water's edge, and gave them to Xie Hanyi.
While taking the medicine, Qi Yuanbai slowly opened his eyes and stared at her movements expressionlessly. Suddenly, he said, "Junior Brother actually allowed you to enter and exit his private vault. He really thinks highly of you."
Pinching Xie Hanyi's jaw, Mu Fuyun waited until he saw his Adam's apple rolling, indicating that he had indeed swallowed the pill, before releasing his hand. He lowered his head and replied, "I'm ashamed to say that I don't deserve Master's high regard. I only hope that Master can get better soon. I will practice even harder in the future and serve Master well."
Qi Yuanbai narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "You should indeed be ashamed. If it weren't for you, Junior Brother Xie would never have left the sect, let alone fallen into such a painful situation."
"You know, as soon as he heard you were abducted, he left the sect immediately."
"Today, if he comes back later, not only I can't save him, but also others can't—"
The words stopped here.
