Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Lu Feng's eyes flashed with impatience. He was about to ask her a question, but saw a corner of the white wooden note sticking out from Ling Ying's arms. He didn't bother to say anything more. He just waved his sleeve, swept the white wooden note away, and left.
…
Xiang Sheng didn't know that Lu Feng had taken back the white wooden note she had given to Ling Ying.
After escaping from the arena square, she passed through the heavy defenses of Huacheng under the protection of Wei Ning's magical powers and came to the northern city area of Huacheng which was not open to the public.
"Brother, there are not many people here, I can handle it myself, please put away your magical power first."
Wei Ning was indeed struggling, but without saying a word, he withdrew his Sky-Severing Divine Power and would use it again when Xiang Sheng needed help at a critical moment.
Xiang Sheng immediately activated the breath-concealing technique and cast a layer of invisibility on his body, then wandered around the North City.
The streets in the North City are wider than other places, and there are many restrictions in the alchemy workshops along the way, both for protection and warning.
However, these were not difficult for Xiang Sheng, and even gave her some hints.
She searched along the area with the most restrictions and soon came to a medicinal field.
The elixir was delicate and precious, so many people were busy taking care of it in the medicine field. However, their cultivation was average, so no one noticed a woman standing on the ridge of the field.
Xiang Sheng scanned the entire medicinal field, but saw no trace of the ghost grass, and frowned.
The soul of the Holy Son of Yingxiu used Huacheng to escape from her sight, and the incident of Zhiyaoxing giving birth to the Blood Pill made her have a bad impression of Huacheng from the beginning.
Now her thoughts began to waver.
Both the Forbidden Court and the Immortal Palace hate Blood Pills. If Blood Pills were Huacheng's main business, these two major forces would never allow the young geniuses to come and participate in the Pill Tasting Conference.
Looking at the vast fields of magical medicine and the alchemy workshops in the north city, without any harmful things like ghost grass mixed in, it is not difficult to see that Huacheng is still quite decent.
Of course, it is also possible that Huacheng was cautious and separated the refining locations of the orthodox immortal pill and the blood pill.
But these have nothing to do with her trip today. What she is looking for is the ghost town in the sea of everlasting flowers.
With this thought in mind, Xiang Sheng turned every corner of North City upside down, but he did not find any place that had anything to do with the words "Eternal Flower Sea".
She stood alone on the roof of an attic, looking at the people coming and going in Huacheng below, her brows furrowed.
Could it be that the entrance to the sea of flowers of eternal life is not in the city? Where should she start looking?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly a group of people carrying a black coffin ran past on the street below.
“Get out of the way!”
"Hurry!! It's getting late, the spirits will get angry, and we'll all be in trouble!"
“…”
When the disciples of the alchemy workshop saw the procession of coffins, their faces changed drastically and they all moved away.
"Is it time to offer sacrifices again? Hasn't it only been half a month?"
"Time is shortened again..."
“…”
Faint sounds of conversation were heard, Xiang Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he jumped down from the roof of the attic, quietly following the black coffin team.
The black coffin was filled with something, but it was quite heavy.
The eight Huacheng disciples who carried the coffin all had the cultivation level of immortals, but they were pressed down by the black coffin and could not fly, so they could only run wildly.
Xiang Sheng followed closely behind until they reached the end of an alley, where the procession of coffins suddenly disappeared.
She flashed to the wall at the end, stretched out her hand and touched it lightly, and her eyes suddenly narrowed.
The perfect immortal ban contains the origin, and the person who set the ban has even higher attainments in making the ban than her. No wonder she didn't notice anything unusual when she passed by here before.
She was not sure that she could dissolve this kind of restriction without making any noise.
"Behind this forbidden door, there is another space. My magical power can help you travel directly through it."
Wei Ning's voice rang out, and without waiting for Xiang Sheng's response, he directly used Duankong to wrap up his junior sister.
Xiang Sheng only felt the scene flash before his eyes, and the wall at the end disappeared, replaced by a gloomy black ocean.
A sticky and oppressive breath came from the sea, causing her heartbeat to speed up slightly.
This sea gave her a very bad feeling.
"Could this be... the Sea of Eternal Life Flowers?"
With this thought in mind, she did not slow down at all and secretly approached the black coffin team parked on the beach.
The place was strange, and Xiang Sheng didn't dare to get too close, nor did he dare to release his spiritual sense to explore rashly. He could only see the group of Huacheng disciples kneeling respectfully on the beach, with their hands raised to the sky and muttering to themselves.
After a while, some people stood up and worked together to pry open the black coffin.
Click——
As soon as the coffin was pried open a crack, countless souls rushed out of the gap impatiently.
However, before those souls could howl for freedom, the calm sea surface suddenly rose up into huge waves dozens of feet high without any warning, almost overturning the world!
Without anyone's reminder, the Huacheng disciples ran away without saying a word.
The huge waves seemed to have no interest in living people. They ignored the Huacheng disciples and rolled the black coffin directly into the sea.
Under the tremendous force, the black coffin shattered with a "crash", and countless ghosts were released from it. They howled and struggled in the surging waves, but it didn't take long before they calmed down.
The Huacheng disciples fled to the exit and patted their chests with lingering fear, "I thought I was going to die."
When the others saw this, someone immediately laughed: "Brother, is this your first time here? The Soul Sea has no interest in living people. Just run fast and you'll be fine."
The person being questioned wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded, saying, "What bad luck! I've only been in the city for less than a hundred years, and I've already been selected to join the Soul Sacrifice Team."
"Less than a hundred years?"
Another person hissed, "Your luck is really bad. Burn a few more incense sticks for the Flower Goddess later..."
The group walked further and further away while talking, and were eventually swallowed up by the forbidden barrier. The entire Black Sea space became completely quiet.
Xiang Sheng did not relax at all. She pushed the breath-holding technique to its limit and reached the edge of the Black Sea with her mind tense.
A few pieces of coffin fragments were floating on the sea, and were carried to the shore by the surging sea water.
He carefully picked up a piece through the restriction, and after carefully sensing it, his eyes instantly turned cold.
She has been dealing with corpses for many years, and now, just by the smell remaining on the coffin, she can tell that the soul sealed in the coffin has been dead for no more than half a month.
Just look at the number of souls swallowed by the Black Sea just now, no less than a hundred.
The truce between the ancient demon clan and the Immortal Palace has not yet passed. With such a coincidental number and timing, she could not think of anyone else except the female warrior immortals and forbidden immortals who died in the last beast tide at the forbidden defense line.
Those souls who were roaring just now seemed to have lost their minds.
What did Huacheng do to them? How did he collect their souls?
Does the Red and Green Army know about this?
Many questions came to his mind. Xiang Sheng looked at the calm sea with a serious look and called out in his heart.
"Senior Brother Wei Ning."
Wei Ning understood. "Go ahead and try! If things don't go well, I'll teleport you away."
With his senior brother's words, Xiang Sheng's eyes showed determination. Without hesitation, he jumped into the sea.
Just as her feet were about to touch the sea, a knife shadow suddenly appeared from behind her out of thin air, stabbing at her feet with surging demonic power!
