Hanging Sky Mountain's Forbearance, Golden Light Across the Sky

"The Hanging Sky Mountain has actually retreated to the Spirit Mountain Range?"

"Is that mysterious expert really that intimidating?"

"With his own power, he forced a large secret realm to retreat into hiding?"

When various forces in the world sent disciples and spies to investigate into Western Province, they discovered that the forces of Hanging Sky Mountain had retreated into the Spirit Mountain Range for defense.

Everyone was stunned and found it hard to believe.

Because that's Hanging Sky Mountain!

One of the Four Great Secret Realms, with a heritage spanning tens of thousands of years, it has always been a mysterious and aloof entity, hiding in the shadows and controlling the world's affairs.

Now, they've been forced to cower in fear by a mere mysterious cultivator.

Is the Hanging Sky Mountain just a name without substance, or is that mysterious cultivator really that terrifying? For a moment, the feelings of countless powerful individuals became somewhat strange.

Everyone turned their attention to the Spirit Mountain Range.

They wanted to know if the Hanging Sky Mountain really intended to remain holed up in the mountains forever.

"Grand Elder, are we just going to stay in the mountains like this forever?"

In the Spirit Mountain Range, Red-Robed Monk was also asking the same question to the Red-Faced Old Monk.

Although Lu Qing killed a group of Red-Robed Elder, even the Great Elder Xuan Yi was killed by him with a single blow.

However, not all the powerful Elder of Hanging Sky Mountain were wiped out; some of the Red-Robed Elder still survived.

"If we don't stay in the mountains, where else can we go?"

The Red-Faced Old Monk glanced at the Red-Robed Elder. If these disciples hadn't been so afraid of death, they would have dropped their tasks and rushed back after hearing about the mysterious Ghost Face Man.

This caused their plan to ambush the enemy to fail before it could be implemented.

They've probably already captured that Ghost Face Man.

Although he was dissatisfied, the Red-Faced Old Monk knew that now was not the time to blame his disciple.

"That Evil Demon is so arrogant, even the Grand Elder can't stop him?"

If we don't take any action, those sects we just subdued might start to waver again!

The Red-Robed Elder said anxiously.

"That Evil Demon has vanished without a trace and is now in hiding. Do you perhaps have a way to lure him out?" the Red-Faced Old Monk said calmly.

The Red-Robed Elder paused for a moment.

He wanted to say something more, but seeing the Grand Elder's expression, he was suddenly startled and dared not speak again.

He knew that his decision to lead his disciples back to the Spirit Mountain Range without orders from the temple had already displeased the Grand Elder.

If they don't know what's good for them, things might get very bad.

Seeing that the Red-Robed Elder had fallen silent, the Red-Faced Old Monk then withdrew his gaze.

He shook his head slightly inwardly.

The disciples in the temple have been in the Secret Realm for too long and lack experience; many of them are not up to much use.

It's a pity that Xuan Yi was killed by that mysterious Ghost Face Man. Otherwise, with him around, these disciples wouldn't be like headless flies, completely helpless.

Thinking of this, the Red-Faced Old Monk looked up at the sky.

He was also puzzled; just as they were about to set up an ambush, the mysterious Ghost Face Man vanished without a trace.

Logically speaking, the information should not have been leaked. So where did things go wrong?

And where did that Ghost Face Man go? Is he still lurking in Western Province, or has he already left?

For a moment, a sense of worry arose in the heart of the Red-Faced Old Monk.

He had a feeling that this was an unprecedented crisis for their Hanging Sky Mountain, and if it wasn't handled properly, their millennia-old prestige might be destroyed in an instant.

But now the enemy is in the shadows while they are in the open. Although he knows this cannot continue, the Red-Faced Old Monk has no way to deal with it.

They did try to deduce the location of the Ghost Face Man, but even using the Spirit Artifact in the Secret Realm, they still couldn't deduce any information about him.

Clearly, the Ghost Face Man was well-prepared and must possess Exotic Treasure capable of shielding him from Tianji.

They can't find the person, and there's a risk of being intercepted and killed if they go out.

For a time, aside from passively retreating, the Red-Faced Old Monk and his companions couldn't find a good way to break the deadlock.

Two more days passed, and more and more forces entered Western Province to gather information.

However, to everyone's great surprise, the Hanging Sky Mountain seemed to be really determined to stay hidden in the Spirit Mountain Range and not come out.

Even some of the bolder spies who had reached the outer perimeter of the Spirit Mountain Range remained unmoved.

"Have these Old Bald Donkey changed their ways? How can they be so tolerant?"

In a small town on the outskirts of Mount Ling, the figure of Taoist Yang Ming also appeared.

He looked towards the direction of Mount Ling, a strange glint in his eyes.

He never expected that the Hanging Sky Mountain would choose to retreat into hiding.

As a long-time rival, he knew all too well how domineering those Old Bald Donkey were.

Even when facing the other three secret realms, they displayed great strength when they ascended from the air.

Now, however, they remain hidden in the Spirit Mountain Range, letting the rumors outside fly by.

What kind of conspiracy is behind this, or is the rumored mysterious Ghost Face Man really that terrifying? "It seems that the Hanging Sky Mountain really doesn't want to come out."

In an inn in a certain city, Lu Qing woke up from his cultivation and opened his eyes.

Hearing the murmurs outside, he spoke softly.

Lu Qing did not remain hidden in the cave indefinitely.

After all, news travels slowly in the mountains, so it's more convenient for him to stay in the city if he wants to keep track of the movements of the Hanging Sky Mountain.

To be honest, he was surprised that the Hanging Sky Mountain had shrunk so completely.

It can only be said that this is a powerful force that has been passed down from the last Cultivation Era.

This ability to be flexible and tolerant alone makes them stronger than many sectarian forces.

"But do you really think that just because you're hiding in the mountains, I can't do anything to you?"

A Leng Yi appeared in Lu Qing's eyes. "'Yan' Senior, prepare to proceed according to plan."

"Young master, are you really determined to do this?"

The voice of "Yan" rang in Lu Qing's mind. "You need to think this through. Once this happens, the Li Fire Cauldron will be unusable for a period of time."

"It's alright. I'll set up a Spirit Gathering Array for you later. I believe it won't be long before you can accumulate spiritual energy again and recover."

Seeing Lu Qing's insistence, "Yan" could only agree, "In that case, we'll listen to you, young master."

"Then let's set off."

Seeing that "Yan" had agreed, Lu Qing immediately checked out of the inn, left the city, and went to a secluded place. He put on his mask, summoned his Golden Shuttle, and flew straight up to the Azure Sky towards the Spirit Mountain Range.

A golden streak of light flashed across the sky.

The city where they settled was not far from the Spirit Mountain Range, and the area was teeming with spies from various factions.

Therefore, as soon as the light appeared, it attracted the attention of many people.

What is that?

"Golden light, and it looks like there are people inside!"

"It's that mysterious expert! He's finally appeared! Judging from the direction he's heading, he's going to the Spirit Mountain Range?!"

"Alone, heading to the lair in the Hanging Sky Mountain?!"

"Hurry up, I have a feeling something terrible is about to happen!"

The Martial Artist ' eyesight is still quite impressive.

In addition, Lu Qing's flight altitude wasn't too high.

Although the spies couldn't see his face clearly, they could still make out that there was a mysterious figure within the golden light.

Considering the recent rumors, everyone could easily recognize that this must be the mysterious expert who forced the Hanging Sky Mountain to retreat to the Spirit Mountain! Seeing that the golden light was flying in the direction of the Spirit Mountain Range, the scouts understood that something big was about to happen.

Immediately, all the scouts became excited and rushed towards the Spirit Mountain Range.
