While talking to the people around him, Lei Huan kept a close eye on the surrounding movements with his spiritual sense.
Not only that, he would also take out a jade talisman from time to time, seemingly checking something.
What are you doing?
"Proofread the route."
Lei Huan said.
“The Crimson Crystal Forest is too large. Each of our teams must search in a different direction to save manpower as much as possible.”
"Are we going to the core area of the Crimson Crystal Forest?"
At this moment, Yun Sining walked over and asked.
Lei Huan glanced at her.
Lei Huan had some impression of Yun Si Ning because of her Elephant Armor Realm cultivation.
"The core area? That's not a place we can go."
"Our team, composed of Elephant Armor Realm and Deer Bone Realm experts, can at most wander around the outer perimeter of the core area; we absolutely cannot enter it."
"That's right, that's right. Let those experts at the Serpent Core Realm explore the core area."
Another monk echoed this sentiment.
These people didn't actually come here to find Xu Lan; the vast majority were just after the reward from the Black Moon Sect.
While it would be great to actually find Xu Lan, since even those Dragon Marrow Realm cultivators couldn't do it, these small fry in the Deer Bone Realm and Elephant Armor Realm naturally didn't have much hope.
"Not going to the core area...?"
Yun Si Ning pondered in her heart.
She felt that since the Black Moon Sect had not found Xu Lan for so long, he was very likely hiding in the deepest part of the Crimson Crystal Forest.
It seems that leaving this team is inevitable.
"The direction to the core area..."
Just as she was about to ask Lei Huan, she saw his expression suddenly change.
"Um?"
Yun Si Ning was taken aback. Her divine sense instantly spread out, covering an area of dozens of miles, but she did not find anything unusual.
Lei Huan frowned and looked down at the jade talisman in his hand.
"Everyone...something terrible has happened."
Upon hearing his words, the cultivators all looked over.
"what happens?"
"My lord, is there any new news?"
Lei Huan let out a long breath, his eyes filled with extreme solemnity.
"I just received a message from the sect that an elder has already found the young sect master's whereabouts."
"What!!"
Everyone was shocked by these words.
Some were relieved that they no longer needed to venture into dangerous areas, while others worried that leaving now would mean missing out on the Black Moon Sect's reward.
Yun Sining narrowed her eyes slightly.
"It's still too slow. I didn't expect the Black Moon Sect to find that guy so quickly."
"I haven't finished speaking yet; there's more important information."
Lei Huan spoke, his expression somewhat unpleasant.
"Has the matter not been resolved yet?"
"Now that we've found the young sect leader, why don't we just bring him back?"
"No……"
"The person has been found, but it doesn't seem so easy to bring them back."
…… ……
Red Crystal Forest, core area.
"I've found you!!"
With a loud shout, a black figure swept past like a ghost.
The black mist gathered at one point and then crashed down like a storm.
With a deafening roar, a forest below was instantly leveled.
"Huh? Not here."
The old man in black robes frowned as he looked at the scene before him.
"Old Hong, you're really getting old and your eyesight is failing you! That guy is hiding in the west!"
At this moment, another black figure appeared, also an old man dressed in a black robe.
"Old man Han, have you found any trace of that guy?"
Xu Hong looked at Xu Han, who had flown close, and asked loudly.
“In the woods to the west, the opponent is quite skilled, and his cultivation level is no less than yours or mine.”
Xu Han said.
"Hmph, no matter how high his cultivation level is, it's useless. The message has already been sent to the sect leader, and he has already led his men here. We will make sure that guy has nowhere to escape!"
"That's true, but if he escapes to one of the most dangerous places in the Crimson Crystal Forest, then things will get complicated."
"I know, go after them!"
"Chase!"
Xu Hong and Xu Han exchanged a glance, then vanished from their spot and sped off westward in pursuit.
Their figures flew through the air, and every two or three seconds a red bolt of lightning would suddenly strike down from the sky.
But the two seemed to have been prepared, and they were not flustered at all when faced with Reggae's sudden attack. They easily dodged it with a few quick movements.
The lightning struck the ground, instantly turning several giant trees into charcoal.
Although the reggae didn't hit the two, it did slow them down to some extent.
"Damn it! If it weren't for that damn thing, we would have caught that guy already!"
Xu Hong complained.
"It's alright, he's probably injured, he's getting slower and slower!"
Xu Han seemed to have discovered something.
"Found it, it's right ahead!"
At the same time, Xu Hong also used his spiritual sense to lock onto the figure fleeing rapidly through the forest ahead.
The two exchanged a glance, a cruel glint in their eyes.
The two quickly formed hand seals, and thick, inky black mist surged out of their bodies.
Wherever the fog reached, the air hissed and crackled, producing a chilling sound.
As their hand seals became faster and faster, the black mist surged even more violently.
"Haha, you can't escape this time!"
