In the guest cave at the foot of Shenxiang Peak, Li Jing stared at the shadow of Taixuan Nine Peaks with an expressionless face.
Behind him, a small shadow slowly took shape, transforming into a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old.
"What do you think?" Li Jing asked.
The young man lazily lay in a chair, playing with a small folding fan. Hearing this, he replied, "Chen Bailou is a great cultivator at the Hedao realm. I can't sense him for the time being. Tang Guang from Cangming Peak has a similar aura to Chen Bailou. The previous intelligence should be correct. Tang Guang should have also entered the Hedao realm."
He Dao is the final threshold for a cultivator's ascension. Once one reaches this state, one must wait until the Heavenly Secret is complete before transcending the Tribulation. However, in the entire Northern Continent, few have dared to invite the Tribulation in the past thousand years, and only Zhang Heng has succeeded.
"Besides that, there are quite a few practitioners in the Anti-Void Realm of the Taixuan Sect, but there's something a little off about several of them, and I can't tell what exactly it is."
Li Jing frowned slightly. Although the young man behind him did not have a high level of cultivation, due to some special talents, he could perceive secrets that many practitioners could not perceive. This was his main task in following Taixuan this time.
"Then...how about the Ninth Peak?"
The young man frowned. "The protective formation on the ninth peak is a little strange. I can't detect anything special from the outside. I need to find a way to get in."
"Heh, Zhuang Zizhen from Baiyang Academy went to Jiufeng to pay his respects, but not only did he not even see Li Changan, he even lost a demon pill, hehe."
Li Jing narrowed his eyes, his gaze passing through the barrier of the cave and falling on the ninth peak in the distance.
The Ninth Peak of Taixuan had become a strange place in the entire Beizhou decades ago. Beitianmen had sent people to explore it several times, but did not detect anything unusual. So this time, taking advantage of the meeting in the holy land, he decided to go there in person.
If the Ninth Peak of Taixuan really hides the secret of Zhang Hengzhi's ascension, or is related to the emergence of many talented people in the past hundred years, then Beitianmen must not sit idly by.
"Find an opportunity and sneak in to take a look."
The boy nodded.
Outside the cave, a figure leaped down from a flying sword and bowed slightly, "Li Tianwang, Master Danyang invites you."
Li Jing waved his hand to break the barrier and took a step forward.
…
Xiao Qiongfeng, Li Changan rubbed the little girl's hair and grinned.
"Nezha, stay at Xiaoqiong Peak and don't run around. People from the Four Sacred Lands have already arrived. It's a mixed bag, and it might not be safe for you to run out."
Nezha nodded.
"Also, I personally modified Xiaoqiong Peak's mountain protection formation. Although its power is not great, its defense is very strong. You must not open the mountain protection formation when I am not around."
Li Changan gave the order. Although he felt that the four holy places would not dare to act recklessly in the Taixuan Sect, which was guarded by two great Hedao practitioners, he did not dare to take the risk.
After all, the strange phenomenon at Xiaoqiong Peak was caused by Nezha. If it were known to someone with ulterior motives, it would probably be detrimental to Nezha.
"Got it!" the little girl said impatiently, "Leave the barbecue grill behind when you leave. I want to cook something."
Li Changan waved his hand helplessly, and threw the barbecue grill that was stored in the storage space under the old locust tree.
"You can eat the barbecue, but you'd better save some for me, your senior brother."
"There's a special seasoning I made in your second brother's room. It's very fragrant."
"Also, you can't eat the demon pill you tricked from that idiot yesterday. Ask Senior Uncle Danyun to refine it into a medicinal pill later."
Nezha's face was gloomy, and he put his hands on Li Changan's waist. Li Changan looked puzzled, "What for?"
Then he felt a strong force coming at him, and his whole body floated into the clouds and flew directly down the mountain path.
"So much nonsense..."
Nezha clapped his hands, turned and walked towards the barbecue grill.
…
At the Taixuan Sect's mountain gate, the Taixuan disciples, led by Chang Yun, finally rushed back from Matou City, and Xiao Gan was among them.
"It seems that people from the major sacred places have arrived." Chang Yun frowned and took a glance. He said, "You go back to the respective peaks to report. I will go see Senior Brother Zhou."
"yes!"
In addition to the third and fourth generation disciples of Taixuan Peak, there were also sword-carrying disciples from Jianlu Peak. Nearly thirty people dispersed and left from their original locations.
"Xiao Gan, you should go and rest first."
Xiao Gan nodded and turned to leave.
After leaving, Xiao Gan wandered alone seemingly aimlessly, but after taking a few steps, a faint black gas would seep out from under his feet, penetrate into the ground and disappear.
There was an imperceptible black light lurking in the depths of Xiao Gan's pupils.
A faint shadow swam underground behind Xiao Gan. When passing by Xiao Gan's position, it suddenly stopped, as if it had sensed something unusual. After a long time, its figure swayed again and headed towards the ninth peak.
When approaching the foot of the ninth peak, the shadow twisted a few times and turned into a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old. He stared at the Xiaoqiong Peak mountain road with a frown, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"This magic circle always feels a little strange. What went wrong?" The young man scratched his head.
"Why do I always feel that this place is a little dangerous, even more dangerous than Taixuan Peak?"
The boy thought about it and looked a little hesitant.
The impression that Taixuan Sect gave him was actually not too dangerous. Of course, he did not dare to sneak into the main peak. Not to mention the cultivators in the Hedao realm, even the cultivators in the Fanxu realm were enough to discover his whereabouts.
But according to the intelligence, there were no high-level practitioners in charge of the Ninth Peak of Taixuan, but for some reason, it gave him a very different feeling.
"Damn, I'm not afraid of anything. As the son of the Northern Heavenly Gate Dragon, how can I be scared by a mere Taixuan Jiufeng?"
