"Boom!"

The jet-black giant palm directly smashed a hundred-foot-high hill, revealing Secret Chamber, which was manually excavated from the bottom of the mountain.

"Hmph, do you think I can't catch you if you hide in a place like this?"

Dai Fei'ang snorted coldly, and slapped another palm with his backhand, directly smashing Third-Tier Great Formation on top of Secret Chamber.

"Damn Golden Light Rogue Cultivator!"

Secret Chamber was wearing a bamboo hat and was frightened. Ghost Face Qing cursed loudly.

Due to the opponent's bounty of up to four million, he has been pushed to the eleventh place from the Inner Sea's Wanted List.

Originally, it was okay to forget it, since it's not a very glorious ranking list anyway.

But the problem is that he recently came to the Lightless Sea to deal with a batch of accumulated stolen goods.

As a result, I was rounded up like a dragnet by the Yin Corpse Sect and was blocked here.

If it was just a simple roundup, the problem wouldn't be big. Ghost Face Qing is considered an old fox. It's not the first day he was wanted.

But the problem is that Yin Corpse Sect is absolutely crazy, and the search intensity is unprecedented.

Not only were Golden Core cultivator dispatched in groups, but several Nascent Soul True Lord were also dispatched one after another, checking one island after another.

That posture clearly shows that he doesn't hesitate to dig three feet into the ground to catch someone!

And unlike the previous pretense, the rigorous investigation only passed in two days.

At this time, a full ten days have passed since the end of the ruins. Yin Corpse Sect's search intensity has not weakened at all, and Lightless Sea is determined to turn Lightless Sea upside down.

Now it's all over. Not only is his reputation gone, but his critical life is almost gone.

"As long as I can leave Lightless Sea alive this time, I will never come back again."

Originally, Ghost Face Qing was greedy for the Outer Sea's stolen goods, which were easy to sell, and the price was also high. Now he almost regrets it.

Being forced into desperation, he had no choice but to inspire Blood Escape Secret Technique to try to escape.

Although this Demonic Sect Secret Method needs to consume a full third of the monk's Essence Blood as a price every time, even if he escapes alive, his vitality will be severely damaged.

But now he couldn't care so much anymore, and while mentally cursing Xiao Chen, the culprit who triggered the manhunt, he ran away in a hurry.

"Ah~!"

However, after flying less than three hundred feet, Ghost Face Qing screamed and fell on the sea.

At some point, a ferocious-looking Yin Spirit appeared on his back.

In order to ensure that Xiao Chen could be caught, Dai Fei'ang used a golden talisman again at all costs.

However, when he grabbed the person and took a look, he couldn't help but get angry. "What are you hiding from? What are you doing hiding on this isolated island!"

With great difficulty, we found clues about the monk's sneaky activities in a remote place southeast of the Lightless Sea.

Dai Fei'ang had finally found the whereabouts of Xiao Chen and ran over tens of thousands of miles in one breath.

But it turned out that the goods were wrong and a precious golden talisman was wasted. My beard suddenly became angry.

"True Lord have mercy on me, True Lord have mercy on me!"

Ghost Face Qing hurriedly begged for mercy, "I am willing..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was crushed into a pool of blood on the spot.

Objectively speaking, this can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

Of course, judging from the identity of the person who did it, it can also be regarded as a gangster attack.

"Golden Light Rogue Cultivator, where are you hiding?"

Dai Fei'ang still insists on his own judgment, thinking that Xiao Chen must have borrowed some kind of Escape Secret Technique before leaving Heaven Star Island.

The reason why he thinks so is because there is a similar description on Ancient Books.

Since Ancient Times, there will indeed be some talented people who can escape from Nascent Soul with Golden Core Cultivation.

Some people can even use secret techniques to resist Nascent Soul's attack and seize the treasure, and then successfully escape thousands of miles away.

But under normal circumstances, the better the effect of the secret technique, the higher the price that needs to be paid.

So in Dai Fei'ang's mind, Xiao Chen must be hiding somewhere in the Lightless Sea right now, quietly healing his wounds.

For this purpose, he first invited three senior brothers, and then specially invited two comrades to participate in the search with a large sum of money.

The reason why he is willing to do this at all costs is not just for revenge on Dai Tian Rui.

It is also because of the strength shown by Xiao Chen in the ruins.

That's Half-step Nascent Soul!

Once he escapes this time, Dai Family will have one more enemy of Nascent Soul Stage in the future, which will cause endless troubles.

This is the real reason why Dai Fei'ang works so hard.

"I will definitely let you know the consequences of offending a True Lord!"

However, another ten days passed and there was still no progress in the arrest.

On the contrary, Yin Corpse Sect, under pressure from other forces, finally accepted to allow some disciples with backgrounds to leave the territory of the Lightless Sea, subject to inspection by the Dai Family.

Among them, they mainly include disciples of the Heavenly Sound Sect and Five Thunder Temple.

As well as several casual cultivators who are well-connected with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

And as these monks who had personally experienced the battle in the ruins returned to the Inner Sea, more details related to the incident in Heaven Star Island were finally revealed.

No matter how much it was spread before, it was always just gossip.

In view of the exaggeration and distortion in the dissemination process, many monks listened to it just for fun and did not believe it.

Basically, it's just a discussion between disciples of each school, or some related casual practitioners.

However, now that Wen Suo Ruo, Five Thunder Temple and Execution Elder have come forward to testify, the credibility of the matter suddenly becomes higher.

It directly attracted the attention of higher-level monks.

Heavenly Sound Sect, Sect Hall.

"Come over here and tell us in detail what you saw and heard in the ruins."

Shu Yu True Monarch, who is currently responsible for guarding the sect, directly called Wen Suo Ruo: "Don't be nervous, I just want to know about the Golden Light Rogue Cultivator that has been rumored recently."

After hearing the whole process, a trace of surprise immediately flashed in her eyes.

But he lowered his head and warned, "It sounds really powerful, but he is too aggressive and too aggressive."

"Su Ruo, if you can take that step one day, remember not to imitate him and run around and take risks. You should stay in the sect and concentrate on breaking through. Remember?"

After sending this disciple away, Shu Yu True Monarch returned to his seat.

Only then did he carefully recall the conversation just now, frowning and falling into deep thought.

At the same time, he is proficient in the three paths of swordsmanship, body training, and Fire Method, and has almost reached the pinnacle of Golden Core cultivator in each of them.

How many years has it been since Eastern Domain, and there has not been such a Genius Cultivator?

The key point is that Heavenly Sound Sect currently lacks such a powerful new generation.

Looking back at my own Wen Suo Ruo, although it is a good seedling, but compared with Golden Light Rogue Cultivator, it is obviously still far behind.

"Hey~, where did such an all-rounder come from?"

Shu Yu True Monarch sorted out his memory, but still had no clue. "No, I have to go to the Scripture Pavilion to check Ancient Books and find out his details."

The ordinary Hidden Dao Heritage does not deserve such attention, but this one seems to be different.

.

"The one you are best at is Fire Method?"

Inside Five Thunder Temple, Che Guang True Monarch stood on Thunderclap Cliff with his hands behind his hands, listening carefully to the information about Xiao Chen.

Perhaps due to its proximity to the sea, the number of Fire Spirit Root monks in the Eastern Region has been very small since ancient times.

Naturally, there are not many successful monks who practice Fire Method, and the sect with Fire Method as its cornerstone only has one Flame Manipulation School.

If Xiang Yiyang does not appear this time, the clue should be clear.

But it happened that Flame Manipulation School had a descendant come into the world this time, which is very strange. Could it be that there are other hidden forces?

However, Che Guang True Monarch has never heard of this information.

"Could it be that a monster is causing trouble?"

He suddenly remembered that in the sect's classics, it was recorded that when Spiritual Qi was relatively abundant, there would be Great Demon Transformation pretending to be Human Race to cause trouble for one party.

It is very difficult for monks to master Fire Method, but some Demon Beasts of special blood are naturally very good at a certain skill.

Maybe this is a special fourth-level bloodline, underage Demon Beast.

Thinking of this, a trace of killing intent flashed in Che Guang True Monarch's eyes.

If there is a chance for him to meet this 'Golden Light Rogue Cultivator', he must test the quality of the other person.

If he really is a monster, then let him taste the power of his own Thunder Method.

The kiosk inside Hundred Herbs City, City Lord Manor.

City Lord Huo sat in the pavilion again, leaning on the chair and pouring himself a drink.

The person sitting opposite was none other than Lantern-Bearing True Monarch. At this time, he ignored the fine wine in front of him and sighed in surprise as he looked at the official information in his hand.

"I really didn't realize that he is so powerful?"

"Oh, I should have thought of it earlier. How can ordinary people come up with so many Purple-Gold Bodhi."

"Lao Huo, why are you still drinking? Don't you have any opinions?"

City Lord Huo tilted his head. "What should I think?"

He has never been interested in what happened to the Outer Sea.

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch naturally knew this, and reminded him, "Don't forget, he came to attend Hundred Herbs Secret Realm before."

"Don't you always feel that the Spiritual Qi consumed in the Secret Realm is obviously too much, and there seems to be some secret hidden there?"

Huh?

City Lord Huo was stunned, he indeed had doubts in this regard.

Hundred Herbs Secret Realm can absorb the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to replenish itself through the internal super Spirit Gathering Formation.

However, several past inspections, including the previous delay in opening, made him feel a little strange.

Upon being reminded like this, City Lord Huo immediately frowned. "You mean, he might know something?"

He reached out and grabbed the information and read it again, "Basically, we can confirm from the information that Golden Light Rogue Cultivator is Hidden Dao Heritage Successor."

"You mean, what might his group know?"

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch nodded. "I won't be polite between the two of us. How many years has Hundred Herbs City existed in total? How many years has Hundred Herbs Secret Realm existed?"

"In these Hidden Dao Heritage, there are always a few Ancient Books that have been lost to the outside world."

"Judging from the information currently collected by the Morning Radiance Pavilion, this Golden Light Rogue Cultivator almost appeared out of thin air. I searched the entire Eastern Domain before last year and there was no relevant information."

"The first place where he has a clear whereabouts happens to be Hundred Herbs City."

"I happened to encounter Secret Realm and opened it. I happened to get Tier 4 Spirit Grass in the Secret Realm and successfully exchanged it for Nine Luminaries Profound Pill."

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch paused intentionally before asking, "Don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence?"

"After the Secret Realm came out, Closed-door cultivation took a month, and then went straight to the Lightless Sea to seek revenge. He did it cleanly and decisively."

"And we have prepared ways to escape in advance, but so far Yin Corpse Sect has found nothing."

"Judging from the other party's behavior, these actions were obviously premeditated and planned in advance."

"Then if he comes to participate in the Secret Realm earlier, is it also part of the plan?"

After finishing speaking in one breath, Lantern-Bearing True Monarch then grabbed the wine glass and took a slow sip.

"No, the ruins incident was an accident."

City Lord Huo was already sitting upright at this time. "Golden Light Rogue Cultivator came to the island before Sea Spirit Festival last year."

"But the news that New Ruin confirmed that it was opened only spread after Sea Spirit Festival."

"That is to say, when he came to the Hundred Herbs Secret Realm, he didn't know about New Ruin."

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch shook his head and asked, "What if the orthodoxy he belongs to also records the situation of Heaven Star Island's ruins?"

City Lord Huo is still a little unbelievable. "If there is such a powerful force, then there won't be any news at all, right?"

In this era where Spirit Transformation monks Divine Dragon see the beginning but not the end.

There are very few things that can be hidden. Nascent Soul True Lords is actually at the pinnacle of Cultivation World, let alone a completely unfamiliar force hidden secretly.

"Kunpeng Sea was pretty much the end of the world until Compassion Sea contacted us."

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch sighed and then asked, "Old Huo, have you noticed that this Golden Light Rogue Cultivator has taken over all the spiritual objects in the ruins by himself?"

City Lord Huo stared at the information in his hand.

Cultivation World has always regarded Strength Revered and Golden Light Rogue Cultivator as Half-step Nascent Soul. It is normal to take the best things, so there should be nothing to say about this.

So he subconsciously ignored this before.

When I looked again at this time, I was finally shocked. "He was the only one who found the token that opened the altar?"

This is New Ruin, a total of twelve tokens, and they are all owned by one person.

This undoubtedly proves that Hidden Dao Heritage, where Golden Light Rogue Cultivator is located, has really obtained the internal situation of Heaven Star Island in advance.

"Hiss~!"

City Lord Huo took a breath of cold air. "I will check the Ancient Books left by my seniors later. You know many casual cultivators, please help me find out the relevant information."

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch nodded. "Don't worry about that."

"Speaking of which, I happen to be going to the Vast Sea Secret Realm's area recently to help Jade Dawn Sect refine two furnaces of elixirs. Then I'll ask them if they have any clues."

"They are all Hidden Dao Heritage, maybe they know each other."

City Lord Huo was a little surprised when he heard this. "Oh, so fast?"

"I remember the last time you were contacted by them was five years ago, right?"

Compared to forces like Hundred Herbs City, Hidden Dao Heritage prefers to find casual cultivators like Lantern-Bearing True Monarch Alchemist to customize fourth-level elixirs.

And generally once you have a partner, you won't change them easily.

However, generally speaking, due to Spirit Herb production and safety issues, there is often a gap of about ten years between two transactions.

"It's true that the gap was quite short this time. Maybe there's someone inside the door who is in urgent need of the elixir."

Lantern-Bearing True Monarch nodded, but he was quite happy. After all, he could get a lot of rewards for every transaction. "Anyway, if you don't report the message on time, you must remember to call someone to rescue me."

.

Similar situations have occurred in different sects throughout the Inner Sea.

After everyone exchanged information, they were even more certain that this Golden Light Rogue Cultivator who suddenly appeared must be from a certain deeply hidden High Antiquity orthodoxy.

All of a sudden, all kinds of conjectures sprung up like mushrooms after rain and were spread by word of mouth among the crowd.

Especially some casual cultivators seemed to have discovered some shocking secret.

"Have you heard that Golden Light Rogue Cultivator actually comes from Hidden Dao Heritage?"

In the corner of the square, a thin casual cultivator, his eyes widened. "It is said that they were practicing the fire method when the earth and fire raged when they flew across the sea two thousand years ago."

"Hey, I found out about this news yesterday."

Another burly casual cultivator rushed to speak, "Let me tell you, the Heavenly Fire outbreak of Ten Thousand Immortals Archipelago eight hundred years ago was actually their fault."

"I just said that I have never heard of it before, our Eastern Domain has a sect that practices Fire Method."

Someone among the onlookers slapped his thigh and showed a look of realization. "So that's it. This time we have found the source!"

"The latest news from Daoist Zhang, then Red Peony is probably the same as Golden Light Rogue Cultivator."

"Ah? He still has such a background?"

"Of course, think about it, otherwise how could he be such a powerful Fire Method as a casual cultivator?"

"Old Li, do you know that our Eastern Domain also has a High Antiquity sect."

"Who doesn't know now? I just heard that a few years ago, Profound Heaven Immortal Palace suddenly opened, and it has something to do with this hidden sect."

"What, they did this too?"

"Oh, don't you know yet? It is said that Sect Master of their sect is the descendant of Immortal Palace Master, so there is a way to open the Immortal Palace in advance."

All kinds of baseless rumors spread, which surprised Cui Yunxian, who had just come out of the retreat from Hundred Herbs City.

She has only been enlightened in Seclusion Chamber for three years. Why does it feel like she has been isolated from the outside world for thirty years?

"Sister, don't listen to these people's nonsense, they don't understand anything."

The female cultivator wearing True Disciple clothing looked around disdainfully at the chattering casual cultivators around her.

Then, she looked at Cui Yunxian eagerly, with a bit of flattery in her eyes. "City Lord Huo explained before going to the study room that Nascent Soul Preservation Pill is still under the care of Elder Sun."

"As long as you say a word, senior sister, you can take it out and use it at any time."

As she spoke, she quietly looked at Cui Yunxian, her eyes showing envy and a third of hidden jealousy.

However, the jealous emotion flashed through his eyes and was immediately hidden deep in his heart.

Nascent Soul Preservation Pill is Fourth-Order Spirit Pill. As the name suggests, this is a Rank-Breaking Spiritual Medicine that can increase the probability of Golden Core cultivator by 20% to Nascent Soul Formation. Its value is self-evident.

We are also particularly concerned about the talented Direct Disciple and City Lord Huo.

He helped her pave the way to a higher realm early on.

However, Cui Yunxian just waved his hand lightly. "I already know about the elixir, let's talk about it after some time."

She tilted her head slightly, with curiosity flashing in her eyes, and then asked, "I just heard that Golden Light Rogue Cultivator is Half-step Nascent Soul?"

"Tell me first, what kind of story is this?"

Obviously, she is more interested in this new Golden Light Rogue Cultivator.

The female cultivator next to her looked at her indifferent expression, and couldn't help feeling sour in her heart.

As early as seven years ago, this senior sister had already cultivated to Golden Core Great Perfection.

Only half a year later, City Lord Huo relied on the previous reserves of Spirit Herb to successfully refine a batch of Nascent Soul Preservation Pill for her.

However, no one expected that Cui Yunxian would reject this kind offer without hesitation, saying in a calm but firm tone, "Disciple does not want to rely on external things for the time being."

Since Foundation Establishment, she has never relied on the power of any elixir, and she still doesn't want to make an exception this time.

City Lord Huo was also very tolerant of this and not only prepared a quiet enlightenment room for her in the City Lord Manor.

She also deliberately stored Nascent Soul Preservation Pill in the warehouse and made it clear that the elixir belonged entirely to her.

If Cui Yunxian fails to realize the truth, take it out and use it.

If the enlightenment is successful, it will be considered as part of the Nascent Soul Formation gift.

How can others not be envious of such a unique treatment?

"A Xiu, what's wrong with you?"

Cui Yunxian stretched out his hand, waved it in front of A Xiu's eyes, and asked with concern, "Why did you stop talking all of a sudden?"

"Tell me about the situation of Golden Light Rogue Cultivator."

A Xiu came to his senses immediately after hearing this, with a trace of panic flashing across his face.

She hurriedly organized her thoughts and told what happened to Heaven Star Island exactly.

"Oh?"

The more Cui Yunxian listened, the more focused he became. When he heard Xiao Chen smashing Grand Void Cloud Light Barrier, a hint of joy immediately appeared in his eyes.

When I heard that he relied on secret techniques to get rid of Nascent Soul True Lord, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly, making a beautiful arc.

A pair of beautiful eyes brightened up, as if seeing light in the darkness.

"Sure enough, I knew this road was feasible."

Since seven years ago, Cui Yunxian has been in retreat three times, each time longer than the last, from one year to two years to three years, but she has never been able to take that step.

Although for ordinary monks, being stuck in a bottleneck for seven years is nothing at all, even if there are many people there for seventy years.

But for a top genius like her, Golden Core, who had almost no idea what a bottleneck was before.

There has been no progress in cultivation for seven years, and it is inevitable that there will be some self-doubt.

During those long days of seclusion, she would occasionally look at the bright moon outside the window in the dead of night, feeling confused and confused in her heart.

But now, when Cui Yunxian heard about Xiao Chen's deeds, he immediately felt certain in his heart. "Daoist Jinguang is right? I didn't expect that he also chose Path of Enlightenment."

"It seems that this road is not alone."

"It's a pity that I was in retreat before and couldn't meet this Daoist Jinguang. It's really a pity."

"But since he can take that step, I am no worse than him."

A confident and bright smile appeared on Cui Yunxian's clear cheek, "A Xiu, help me say hello to the master, and tell him by the way, I am going back to retreat again."

"The next time I come out, I will definitely be able to achieve Nascent Soul!"

After taking two steps, she seemed to suddenly remember something.

He turned around and ordered, "A Xiu, while I am in seclusion, help me collect information about this Daoist Jinguang."

After walking alone on Comprehension Path for so long, I finally met a companion.

She looked forward to meeting this fellow traveler in the future and sharing their cultivation experiences.
