The area of West Continent is more than three times larger than that of East Continent. Traveling from the Wanmai Sword Sect to the territory of the Wuji Immortal Sect is equivalent to crossing the entire East Continent, and the journey is very long.
Fortunately, the black stone palace that Xiang Sheng obtained from the Demon Rift Valley was made of materials that had the effect of breaking through the air.
Qin Tianque took it and integrated it into the Hidden Spirit Shuttle, allowing the Hidden Spirit Shuttle to leap through the void, increasing its speed several times, comparable to that of an ordinary late-stage God Transformation cultivator.
In this way, after Xiang Sheng controlled the Hidden Spirit Shuttle to leap through the void for ten days, the Xuanyu Token finally responded.
She immediately adjusted her direction and flew towards the sensing location...
Three days later, in the territory of Wuji Xianzong, in a rather bustling mortal town.
Xiang Sheng pulled his white gauze hat closer and walked into an inn.
It was dinner time, and there were many diners in the inn, including many martial arts heroes dressed in fancy clothes, so Xiang Sheng's appearance was not very eye-catching.
When the waiter saw Xiang Sheng, he immediately came forward with a warm welcome: "Lady, please come in. Excuse me, are you here for a quick meal or to stay the night?"
"Serve a table of wine and food."
"Okay!"
Xiang Sheng found an empty table in the lobby and sat down. A moment later, the food and drinks were served.
Xiang Sheng picked up his chopsticks and began to eat and drink calmly, while paying attention to the conversations of the diners around him.
The direction sensed by the Xuanyu Token is this small town.
She arrived here last night, but found no trace of any disciples from the Wanmai Sword Sect.
The specific location sensed by the Xuanyu Token was also very vague, as if it was separated by a layer of gauze and could not be seen clearly.
The token sensing connection is still there, which means that the five true disciples of the Xuanjian Sect are still alive, but seem to be trapped by something.
The Xuanjian vein is the main sword vein. Its true disciples have a cultivation level of at least the middle stage of the out-of-body realm, and each of them has comprehended the sword intent, so their strength is unquestionable.
What kind of place could trap them all at once, preventing them from even sending a message for help?
Xiang Sheng felt something unusual, but looking at the Xuanyu Token, he felt that the auras of the five people were still relatively stable, so he was not in a hurry.
She just casually dealt with it for the night, and when there were more people in the town at dawn, she disguised herself and went to the inn to inquire about the news.
The lobby of the inn was almost full and very noisy. The diners were talking about trivial matters among the neighbors. Only the two foundation-building cultivators talked about things related to the world of cultivation, but had nothing to do with this town.
A town that caused five out-of-body cultivators to disappear for no reason, actually has no abnormalities at all?
eccentric.
She frowned slightly, put down her chopsticks and was about to leave, but at this moment, two young scholars hurried over and sat at the next table.
One of the scholars picked up the teacup and took a big gulp. After seeming to catch his breath, he said to his companion:
"Brother Zhang, let me tell you, there really is something haunted in that dry well under the tree!"
When his companion heard this, his expression immediately turned strange. "The sun hasn't even set yet, and you're already telling ghost stories?"
"Whoever told you the story, I said it was true."
The scholar said this, glanced around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he leaned close to his companion's ear and whispered:
“I don’t know if it’s a ghost, but isn’t there a little beggar living near the well?
Two days ago, I saw him lying by the well, talking to something inside, and then he picked up something and ran away!
I was so frightened at the time that I just wanted to run away. Now that I think about it, that little beggar must have picked up a treasure.”
"baby!"
His companion's eyes lit up, "Let's go find him right away!"
"Not eating? I'm still hungry."
"Why are we still eating? What if that guy runs away? Wouldn't all our joy be in vain? When we get the treasure, I'll treat you to a big meal."
"Okay, okay."
The two of them discussed it and got up to leave.
At the same time, the two foundation-building monks sitting in the corner on the other side looked at each other and followed him out without saying a word.
He threw a piece of silver to Xiang Sheng and left as well.
She did not hide her whereabouts. The two foundation-building monks walking in front immediately noticed that someone was following them, but when they saw that it was an ordinary woman from the martial arts world, they did not care and let Xiang Sheng follow.
Soon, the two scholars arrived near the dry well in the south of the town.
The scholar who witnessed the conversation at the dry well was obviously still frightened. He led his companions to avoid the dry well and made a long detour before arriving at a dilapidated temple that had been in disrepair for a long time.
Although the temple is dilapidated, there is a kind-hearted old pharmacist who has lived here for a long time and often treats people for free.
So over time, this place became a medicine hall that was quite famous among beggars.
As soon as the two scholars came in, they saw the little beggar helping the old pharmacist. They were immediately delighted and went over to him.
