Qin Feng quickened his pace with Ao Ling, heading towards the place Xiao Tian sensed.
Several days later, they arrived at a place where spiritual energy was exceptionally dense, turning into mist.
The place is covered in frost, a blanket of white, and the climate is cold.
This is the location of a powerful sect.
Ao Ling was taken aback when she saw the plaque above the mountain gate. "Hanling Sect? Isn't that the sect that was so arrogant in Tianjian Sect before?"
Qin Feng nodded. "It should be them. Ling'er, you should enter my little world first. There might be danger later."
Ao Ling obediently agreed.
Qin Feng asked Xiao Tian, "Is this the right place? Where is it located?"
Xiao Tian responded, "That's right, I can clearly feel its condition. It's sealed by the formation and its power is being constantly drained. No wonder it's in such a hurry."
Qin Feng nodded, "Then let's rescue it as soon as possible so we can help you recover quickly."
It must be said that as the number one power under the Dark Palace, the Hanling Sect is very well guarded.
Disciples question them whenever they enter or leave, and there is also a protective formation to assist them.
Knowing that the Cold Spirit Sect had a powerful background, Qin Feng decided to keep a low profile.
He staked out outside the Hanling Sect, planning to knock out a disciple who returned to the sect alone, change into the disciple's clothes, steal the disciple's token, and use the disciple's identity to facilitate his actions.
Qin Feng quickly found a candidate: a lone Nascent Soul cultivator.
He acted decisively, and before the man even knew what was happening, he was easily controlled by Qin Feng.
He was temporarily imprisoned in a hidden cave.
Coincidentally, this person turned out to be Han Hong, who had been to the Heavenly Sword Sect and possessed the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul stage.
"Huh, it's him. For Han Qinghui to take him seriously, he must be a genius. With his status, things will probably go more smoothly for him."
After disguising himself, Qin Feng swaggered towards the Hanling Sect.
As he expected, the mountain-guarding disciple bowed respectfully to Qin Feng, who had transformed into Han Hong, and spoke somewhat nervously.
"Senior Brother Han Hong, please show your identity token!"
Qin Feng remained expressionless, mimicking Han Hong's arrogance, and took out the token.
The disciple checked the token and found it to be correct. Not daring to ask any further questions, he easily let Qin Feng slip in.
Guided by Xiaotian, they approached the Law of Water.
There were layers of protection along the way.
Qin Feng then encountered another familiar face, Han Qing, who had attended the Heavenly Sword Sect's grand ceremony.
He hid in the shadows and overheard Han Qing's conversation with the other guards.
"Everyone, keep your eyes peeled and don't let anyone disturb the sect leader's cultivation."
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Han Qing. Who would dare to cause trouble in our Han Ling Sect? Wouldn't that be courting death?"
"That's right, Senior Brother Han Qing is overthinking it. Even if he really had the guts, he wouldn't have the ability. This is the sect leader's cultivation ground. Not even a fly can get in, let alone a person."
Although Han Qing felt the same way, she still sternly warned him:
"Hmph, just be careful. The sect leader is at a critical juncture right now. His cultivation has advanced further, and he will be more confident in the upcoming battle for destiny."
"If anyone disturbs the sect leader and ruins his plans, you all know the consequences, right?"
The disciples readily agreed.
A disciple asked curiously, "Senior Brother Hanqing, this place is designated as a forbidden area of the sect, and only the sect leader can enter. Do you know what's inside?"
Han Qing, despite his young age, had already reached the peak of the King Realm. Having earned Han Qinghui's favor, he had naturally entered the realm. Faced with his junior brother's question, he rebuked him:
"Don't forget to ask what you shouldn't ask. The sect leader will naturally tell you what you should know. Just do your job well."
Han shrank back, not daring to ask any more questions.
Qin Feng's cultivation level was much higher than theirs, so naturally these people couldn't possibly discover him.
"A forbidden area? The sect leader's cultivation ground? The laws you mentioned, Xiao Tian, are also here. Could it be that Han Qinghui is cultivating using the laws of water?"
Xiao Tian responded:
"The Cold Spirit Sect cultivates ice-attribute techniques. Water and ice are similar and can even transform into each other under certain circumstances."
"Han Qinghui must be cultivating using the laws of water; it only called for help when it sensed a threat."
Qin Feng thought about it and agreed. Looking at the heavily guarded area and the protective array in front of him, he pondered how to get in.
These people are naturally no match for him, but if he makes a move, it will trigger the array's alarm, which will definitely cause a big commotion and even alarm the Dark Palace, which would be very troublesome.
He simply wanted to quietly reclaim the Law of Water, and didn't want to cause any trouble unless absolutely necessary.
After a moment's thought, Qin Feng had an idea.
He possessed the supreme treasure, the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl, which could freeze the surrounding space and time for a moment, allowing him to quietly enter.
With Qin Feng's current peak Emperor Realm strength, it would be relatively easy for him to immobilize a group of people below the Emperor Realm.
The only thing I'm worried about is the protective formation.
Once Qin Feng made his decision, he began to implement it, having the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl envelop the space where Han Qing and the others were located.
Han Qing and the others felt as if everything in the world had stopped, and the formation had temporarily lost its effect.
Taking advantage of this moment, Qin Feng flew in and stopped the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl from operating.
Hanlingzong and the others only felt a moment of dizziness and did not notice anything unusual.
Han Qing, as expected of the leader, possessed a very keen intuition. Finding everything unharmed, he couldn't help but ask the others:
"I feel like something's not right. Have any of you noticed anything?"
Na Han shook his head and said:
"No, Senior Brother Hanqing, everything is normal. What could possibly be wrong?"
Even if we make a mistake, the formation will sound an alarm. Perhaps Senior Brother is under a lot of stress lately and is hallucinating.
