Xiang Sheng's expression eased slightly, "It's the junior who's meddling in other people's business."
The old village chief heard this and smiled again, "It's okay, it's okay. He is your sworn brother after all. It's normal for you to show some concern for him."
Xiang Sheng: “…”
The old village chief joked, his smile fading slightly. "I can see that you have many secrets and doubts in your heart. You are very restrained and did not ask too many questions when you saw me."
Xiang Sheng's eyes were slightly stern, and he said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Even if the junior asked, I'm afraid the senior wouldn't tell you, right?"
"You're not strong enough yet."
The old village chief shook his head. "Knowing some things in advance will only cause more trouble and will not benefit you."
At this point, the old village chief thought of something, then changed the subject and said with a smile, "If you can successfully reincarnate, after waking up, you may find that the secret you want to know is no longer a secret."
The old village chief's words seemed to imply something, but unfortunately Xiang Sheng had too little information to understand.
"Forget it, why am I telling you this?"
The old village chief waved his hand. "For the sake of your sworn brotherhood with Tuo'er, I'll give you a few more words about Ghost Stream. In Ghost Stream, the four symbols are reversed, and the five elements are in chaos. Don't rely on your mind to judge the safety of the road ahead. Think more about things. Simple vision is more useful there than spiritual awareness."
Xiang Sheng recalled the horrific memories of being underground and nodded with deep emotion.
"The rest are all recorded in this booklet. Go back and read it carefully and memorize it."
The old man took out a booklet from somewhere and threw it to Xiang Sheng. Xiang Sheng raised his hand to take it. The booklet was from Microsoft, and the brown cover exuded a sense of time.
She flipped through two pages and saw many additions and revisions on them.
"Besides that, there is one more thing you need to pay special attention to."
The old village chief's face rarely darkened. "The Kuroshio is unstable. It recedes a hundred years earlier than expected. No one knows if it will rise earlier than expected.
Normally, entering Ghost Gorge would guarantee at least six months of safety, but this time... at most two months, and the Black Tide could return. In other words..."
The old village chief paused and said seriously, "You must find the Yuan embryo within two months and leave Ghost Gorge to choose a place to reincarnate. Otherwise... all is over!"
A look of determination appeared in Xiang Sheng's eyes, "Understood!"
…
While Xiang Sheng was preparing to enter Ghost Gorge, the major sects in the outside world were also actively preparing for war.
Time is the best way to erase traces. It has been nearly six years since the battle in Siji City.
The term "Chiyan Sect" is rarely mentioned anymore, and the Lu family witch has long been forgotten.
The news that the black tide had receded ahead of schedule spread throughout the entire cultivation world through the Tianqing Pavilion half a year ago, causing an uproar among all parties.
After several months of digestion, the uproar subsided, but as the day of ebb tide approached, the atmosphere in each sect became more tense.
…
Tianyan Sect, the former main peak hall of Chiyan Sect.
Lu Yushan supported himself on the edge of the throne with one hand, his eyes slightly wide open: "What's the situation?"
Hei Jue's face was solemn. He stepped forward and said, "Master, the situation is very serious. Several village chiefs under Xiangcheng have been affected. The spies who went to investigate have confirmed that it is related to Ghost Stream, and the source of the spread is located under the Xiang family mine."
After Hei Jue finished speaking, Lu Yushan turned to look at another old man.
The old man bowed and said, "Master, my subordinates have investigated and found that a soul demon was once sealed beneath the mine. Now that the seal has been broken, traces of ghostly aura are leaking out and spreading along the earth veins."
"Since it's a seal... you should ask Elder Yufeng to come over."
A fierce look flashed in Lu Yushan's eyes. "Tell him to seal off the Ghost Stream's aura. How can we allow the Ghost Stream to pollute the territory that our Tianyan Sect has worked so hard to obtain?"
"yes!"
The old man took the order and immediately turned and left.
Lu Yushan sat quietly for a moment, then suddenly said, "Hei Jue, have all the top disciples in the sect come here to pay their respects."
Hei Jue was immediately shocked. "Master, are you really going to send them to Ghost Gorge? If we lose a generation of disciples, it will be difficult for the sect to have a successor generation in the future."
"If we don't understand the true nature of Ghost Stream, how can we talk about the future?"
Lu Yushan narrowed his eyes coldly, "We are outsiders after all. Although the four major sects don't say anything, they are secretly on high alert and refuse to reveal any information about Guijian.
The more this is the case, the more we must investigate thoroughly, lest a disaster strikes one day without us even realizing it."
All the talented talents of Tianyan Sect were dug out one by one by Hei Jue with great effort.
Now they were being sent to the Ghost Gorge. He felt very uncomfortable, but he also understood that what his master said was reasonable. He sighed and said, "I will do it right away."
