The instant she saw the mark, Shui Mochan frowned slightly. Her intuition told her it looked familiar, but she could not recall where she had seen it before.
"Great Sound Pavilion should have records of it. Wait a moment, I'll send it back for them to investigate!" Shui Mochan used a jade slip to copy the mark on the ground, then transmitted the recorded information back using Great Sound Pavilion's secret technique.
"This kind of mark... seems to appear in more places than just here..." Mu Yuyi raised his head, and the Tenseigan's field of vision spread in all directions.
With a specific target to search for, his powerful perception quickly proved its worth. Before anyone else noticed the marks, he had already found four such locations with the Tenseigan.
"Don't you think the positions of these four marks are anything but simple..." Shui Mochan said gravely, frowning as she pondered their connection.
"Could it be some kind of formation?" Luo Yuxi asked as well.
Mu Yuyi remained silent. He stared at the marks on the ground. Those strange runes resembled sinister smiling faces, mocking his stupidity.
Father, Mother, Brother Mu Li... is there any chance... that you just happened not to be in Yijiang City...
Outside Yijiang City.
About a hundred kilometers from the city, a strange concealed weapon was embedded in a massive dark rock. Eerie patterns were carved into it, resembling either the character for wood or some sort of symbol.
About half an hour earlier, Mu Yuyi had passed through this place and thrown down this kunai. The character for wood on it was undoubtedly the Flying Thunder God formula!
Buzz!
Suddenly, the space around the kunai twisted. In the next instant, a figure clad in a black cloak patterned with red clouds appeared beside it.
