Chapter 290 Thin Man



Qin Wan pricked up her ears and listened carefully to what the old lady said. When she caught the meaning of the old lady's words, she couldn't help but feel happy - it seemed that their meeting was about to end!

So she tiptoed out of the space and, like a nimble cat, quietly left the mysterious cave.

"Ah..." Qin Wan sighed inwardly as he walked cautiously, "If only my consciousness was strong enough to control space movement at will, how great it would be! That way I could easily grasp more intelligence and information, instead of being so nervous and timid like I am now."

Seeing the old lady and her group preparing to leave, Qin Wan suddenly felt a surge of anxiety in her heart. She knew that with her current ability, she could not follow everyone at the same time, and she had to make a difficult decision.

After a brief thought, her eyes fixed firmly on the thin man.

The thin man chose to descend the mountain from the other side. His steps were light yet cautious, as if every movement around him escaped his gaze. Qin Wan saw this and knew he must be a formidable opponent. So she didn't dare approach rashly, fearing to alert the enemy. In desperation, she could only use her immature spiritual sense to track him.

However, she soon discovered that this method was not feasible. Due to her relatively weak spiritual power, it was not only ineffective, but also consumed a great deal of her own spiritual energy.

After just a few moments, she felt the spiritual energy draining away like a flood, and her body began to feel heavy. It seemed that her spiritual consciousness could no longer be used.

"hateful!"

Qin Wan couldn't hold back the surging emotions in his heart, and couldn't help but curse fiercely in his heart:

“Damn it!”

Her originally beautiful face was now filled with annoyance and regret.

Qin Wan thought to himself with a guilty conscience, "If I had practiced diligently and persevered in improving my strength, I wouldn't be in such a miserable and embarrassing situation right now!"

But things have developed to this point. No matter how much we regret it, it will be futile. The most urgent task is to try every possible way to smoothly proceed with this tracking mission.

So, she carefully followed the thin man in front of her, while concentrating on finding the perfect opportunity to capture him.

Unexpectedly, the man was far more alert, intelligent and cunning than she expected.

Just as they were slowly descending the mountain road, seeing that Qin Wan was fully prepared to take action and bring him to justice, the thin man suddenly flashed and turned into an extremely hidden cave at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, he was immersed in the boundless darkness and disappeared completely.

When Qin Wan saw this scene, his heart felt like it was hit hard by a heavy hammer and trembled violently.

But how could her tenacious character allow her to give up so easily? After a brief hesitation, she took a deep breath, stared firmly at the direction where the thin man disappeared, and rushed away like the wind.

Along the way, Qin Wan did not dare to slack off at all, and his speed was as fast as an arrow leaving a bow.

Before long, she successfully reached the entrance of the mysterious cave. Standing at the entrance, a damp and cold air hit her face, making her feel cold.

Qin Wan carefully stepped into the cave. At first, the light was not too dim, and she could barely see the surrounding environment. But as she continued to go deeper, the cave became increasingly darker and the path became more and more complicated, like a huge maze.

As she groped her way forward, she tried to find any clues left by the thin man.

However, the darkness in the cave was like an invisible hand, tightly covering all clues; and those winding passages were like naughty children, deliberately opposing her, causing her to bump into the wall again and again.

As time passed, Qin Wan's mood gradually changed from initial anxiety to despair. Just as she was about to give up, suddenly, an extremely subtle sound reached her ears.

The sound was vague, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time. But for Qin Wan at this moment, it was undoubtedly a life-saving straw!

She perked up, quickly determined the direction of the sound, and then ran towards it without hesitation. After a difficult journey, Qin Wan finally passed through many obstacles and walked out of the cave.

However, when she looked out with anticipation at the empty field and the sparse trees in the distance, she discovered that the thin man had vanished without a trace. Disappointment surged into her heart like a tide, instantly drowning her...

Qin Wan stood quietly at the entrance of the cave, staring at the gradually blurred mountain shadows in the distance. His heart seemed to be shrouded in a thick fog, filled with endless confusion and deep unwillingness.

She really couldn't understand why that thin and inconspicuous man would appear here so mysteriously?

He seemed to be hiding countless unknown secrets, making him unpredictable. Especially the extraordinary and extremely skilled escape skills he displayed made Qin Wan dumbfounded.

All of this was like a huge mystery before her, waiting for her to solve.

The failure of this tracking mission was like a heavy hammer hitting Qin Wan's heart, jolt her awake. She stood quietly, brow furrowed, lost in deep thought.

During this period of time, she had indeed shown obvious signs of slacking off in her cultivation. Not only that, but even at the ideological level, some changes might have quietly taken place.

Is it because I have special abilities that I unconsciously develop a sense of self-importance and superiority?

In fact, there is no need to think too much. Qin Wan is very clear in his mind that he does have certain problems in his thinking recently.

It’s just that I have never encountered any setbacks, so I didn’t really take these problems to heart and let them develop and spread.

It was this overconfidence that blinded her to potential risks and uncertainties. Those details she had once easily overlooked now pierced her heart like sharp thorns.

Recalling every previous action, Qin Wan couldn't help but feel a strong sense of self-blame in his heart.

Faced with this sudden and extremely heavy blow, she finally realized that she had to re-examine her past judgments and behaviors.

Her previous carelessness and blind self-confidence made her completely ignore her true ability level and the limitations she faced.

At this moment, she knew that only by learning from the pain, reflecting deeply and correcting it could she avoid making the same mistake again.

Fortunately, she did not find nothing during the tracking process. She finally remembered who the thin man looked like.
