A crisp sound echoed in his ears, accompanied by the astonishment on Chang Yan Zhenren's face. "The Heaven Monitoring Mirror... flew away?"
He was stunned for a moment before a clearer collision sound resounded throughout the entire mountain range.
Under the Sky-Monitoring Mirror, the multiple formations above the secret palace were as fragile as pieces of paper, and a series of holes were blasted out of them in the blink of an eye.
The two middle-aged men who had not yet walked far had their faces changed instantly, and without saying a word, they returned to the secret hall at a faster speed.
Underground secret room, boom——
Xiang Sheng looked up in shock, only to see a ray of white light blasting a huge hole in the ground. The white light faded, revealing the mirror's true form. After the mirror light shone across the ground, it actually locked onto him and flew towards him, jumping up and down, conveying a sense of joy.
Xiang Sheng's face was gloomy. Without saying a word, he grabbed the mirror and put it away. He didn't care that there was still a small amount of incense in the incense pool. In an instant, he turned into a sword light and quickly left through the hole in the mirror.
Just as she rushed out of the secret hall, the two men in gold and white robes arrived in time.
Seeing the white light, the middle-aged man in the golden robe snorted coldly, and his body movement immediately burst out, and he stretched out his palm to slap it!
Xiang Sheng's pupils shrank slightly, but he did not panic. He flipped his hand and threw out a sky full of defensive talismans, which turned into hundreds of layers of defensive magic shields. Without stopping, he flew decisively towards the dense forest on the distant mountain.
Bang!
With one palm strike from the middle-aged man in golden robe, all the hundred layers of defensive magic shields turned into nothingness, but it also delayed them for half a breath.
Seeing Xiang Sheng about to disappear into the dense forest, the middle-aged man in the golden robe burst into anger, "Still want to run? Where are the disciples? Form a battle array and seal the sect!"
This roar spread throughout the Thousand Star Palace, but a moment later, the mountains belonging to the Thousand Star Palace all shook violently, and a golden formation rose into the sky, like an upside-down golden bowl, blocking all the exits of the mountains.
It was also at this moment that the middle-aged man in the golden robe rushed to the dense forest where Xiang Sheng had escaped. He scanned with his spiritual sense but found nothing.
"Brother! Brother! Something terrible has happened!"
A middle-aged man in a white robe came over in a panic, "The incense has been stolen, and only half is left."
A fierce look flashed in the golden-robed middle-aged man's eyes. "That thief's cultivation isn't high, at most he's in the late Jindan stage. There's no way he could escape the formation within a breath. Pass on my order, search! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find that thief!"
——
Xiang Sheng escaped from the sight of the middle-aged man in the golden robe and immediately absorbed all the incense scent that had contaminated her body. After making sure that no incense remained, she relied on the Breath-Containing Technique to push her body movements to the extreme and quickly returned to her residence on Changyan Peak.
After throwing the Sky-Monitoring Mirror into the Blood Ring, Xiang Sheng sat down on the bed, his mind slightly disturbed.
However, before he could think about it, the warning barrier at the gate was suddenly triggered.
Her eyes moved and she immediately lay down, with long breathing sounds coming from her nose.
The next moment, a figure hurriedly pushed open the door and saw Xiang Sheng lying on the bed, looking like he was sleeping soundly. He immediately relaxed and sat down to wake Xiang Sheng up.
"Sister, wake up quickly."
Xiang Sheng pretended to be sleepy when he opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Tang Yin, he relaxed a little, but on the surface he asked with confusion, "Sister Tang, why are you here? Is it that Master wants to see me?"
"No."
Tang Yin solemnly warned, "Someone just broke into the sect. The Palace Master is furious and is searching for the thief's hiding place. The sect is in chaos now, so I have to go search as well. You stay here and don't run around. Do you understand?"
Xiang Sheng nodded repeatedly and said obediently, "I understand, don't worry, sister."
Tang Yin seemed to be in a hurry. After giving a few more instructions, she left with a worried look on her face.
Not long after, the disciple in charge rushed in with a sullen face. Seeing Xiang Sheng's bewildered expression, he subconsciously softened his expression and said in a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, Junior Sister Luo. We're just here for a routine search. Just stand by me, and you'll be fine."
Xiang Sheng nodded nervously, watching them search the guest house and leave in a rage, then he went over and closed the gate, and the uneasiness on his face instantly faded away.
She returned to the room and sat down, calmly pouring a cup of hot tea. She took a sip, and the bitter tea spread in her throat, leaving a lingering sweetness.
Xiang Sheng's heart also faded away like the ripples in tea and returned to calmness.
She did not take out the mirror to examine it, but seeing how unhappy the disciple in charge looked, she could guess that it was the Heaven Monitoring Mirror.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the entire Changyan Peak to empathize with the incident just based on the theft of a secret hall that had nothing to do with them.
But... why did the Heavenly Mirror come to me?
Xiang Sheng narrowed her eyes and thought carefully. She had been hiding in the secret hall for so long without touching anything. The only action she had taken was to draw the incense.
Then, Jiantian Realm broke into the palace.
The Jiantian Mirror is in the hands of Master Chang Yan, and is used specifically for divination. The power of incense belongs to Shintoism, so it seems there is a connection between them.
But why was it that the middle-aged man in the golden robe was fine when he absorbed the incense to practice, but she had problems when she pulled the incense?
Or maybe Jiantianjing predicted something and came here on his own initiative, and she, the incense god, is the key?
Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng's expression became slightly solemn.
Regardless of the reason behind this incident, she finally got the Sky Monitoring Mirror. However, this stroke of genius also caused her considerable trouble.
Although she currently has the identity of "Luo Sheng" as a cover, when the Thousand Star Palace searches the entire mountain range and still cannot catch anyone, she, as the only outsider in the Thousand Star Palace today, will definitely be suspected.
In addition, the Luo and Wei families are not on good terms now. If this matter is not handled properly, it may end in disaster. We must not be careless.
Xiang Sheng stared at the tea rippling in the cup and gradually fell into deep thought.
Half a day later, in the main hall of the main peak.
The Thousand Star Palace Master sat down with a gloomy expression, "What's the situation?"
A thin old man suddenly stepped out from the crowd standing below and said, "Reporting to the Palace Master, all the mountains within the sect have been thoroughly searched, and no trace of the thieves has been found."
