Discovering the Target
Wang Mengde could feel the muscles in her waist tense up instantly, and she seemed to freeze in place.
The next moment, she spoke coldly, "Take your dog paws away."
Wang Mengde nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay."
Next, the Flying Sword became much more stable, without the slightest wobbling.
Wang Mengde stood behind her, maintaining his balance.
A morning breeze blew, causing Zhao Hongying's long, black hair to flutter and scratch against Wang Mengde's face.
It's itchy.
A faint, delicate fragrance wafted from his hair, carried by the wind, and entered Wang Mengde's nostrils.
It's not the scent of cosmetics, but a very light, refreshing herbal fragrance.
It smells wonderful.
Wang Mengde's gaze fell on the woman in front of him.
She stood ramrod straight, her figure extremely tall, only slightly shorter than him.
Her fitted outfit accentuated her smooth waistline, her shoulders and back were as straight as a pine tree, and her long hair flew freely in the wind.
Within Wang Mengde's body, the spiritual energy suddenly began to stir slightly.
This is the influence of the Luan-Phoenix Harmony Formula.
He took a deep breath, quickly suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, and looked away.
The Flying Sword was extremely fast, and in a short while it arrived above a beach on the north side of Rosy Cloud Island.
On the beach, five figures had been waiting for some time.
Four men and one woman.
Zhao Hongying maneuvered her Flying Sword to descend slowly.
All five of them looked at Wang Mengde.
A young cultivator who appeared to be around twenty years old spoke first, his voice clear and melodious:
"So you're Wang Mengde, who has cultivated the Spirit Eye Technique to its Peak Mastery?"
He was born with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, a face as handsome as jade, and dressed in white, he had the air of a young master from a noble Aristocratic Clan.
Wang Mengde cupped his hands, neither humble nor arrogant. "It is indeed I."
The young cultivator returned the greeting with a bow, his face earnest. "I have long admired Fellow Daoist Wang."
Wang Mengde was slightly taken aback.
Aren't the outer disciples of the Evergreen Sect supposed to be extremely arrogant?
Shouldn't this be used to question his Spirit Eye Technique, mock him, and force him to use it in public to verify the goods?
What exactly happened?
Wang Mengde remained expressionless, cupped his hands, and said, "Greetings, fellow Daoist."
The young cultivator laughed heartily and introduced himself, "My name is Yun Jingshan, an outer disciple of the Evergreen Sect."
Wang Mengde cupped his hands in greeting. "I have long admired Fellow Daoist Yun's name."
Yun Jingshan waved his hand, then leaned closer with a curious look on his face and asked in a low voice:
"I heard from Yang Daqiang that you've also mastered the Entwining Silk Technique to its Peak Mastery?"
Wang Mengde said, "It was just luck."
Yun Jingshan waved his hand, raising his voice slightly:
"You are too modest. Many Foundation Establishment True Person have not been able to cultivate the Spirit Eye Technique and the Entwining Silk Technique to their Peak Mastery. You have cultivated both to this level, and your comprehension is far beyond that of ordinary people."
Wang Mengde smiled but did not reply.
Yun Jingshan continued, "I heard you want the Seven-Pattern Spirit-Nurturing Pill?"
"If you teach me the cultivation Spirit Eye Technique later, I'll give you Seven-Pattern Spirit-Nurturing Pill, how about it?"
Wang Mengde paused for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, but I can't guarantee how effective it will be."
Yun Jingshan laughed heartily, "Don't worry, I won't blame you if I don't learn it."
At this moment, the only female cultivator among the five spoke up.
This woman had bright eyes and white teeth, and a beautiful face, but her brows and eyes carried a hint of shrewishness.
"Yun Jingshan, cultivation is the most important thing. If Foundation Establishment as soon as possible, your spiritual power will increase dramatically, your comprehension will improve greatly, and you will be able to learn any Law Technique quickly."
The others nodded slightly, clearly agreeing with this statement.
While Law Technique is important, cultivation is fundamental.
With limited resources, it is unwise to use large amounts of resources to practice Law Technique.
Advancing to the Foundation Establishment greatly increases lifespan, granting two hundred years of leisurely time to gradually comprehend Law Technique.
Yun Jingshan rolled his eyes. "You don't know anything."
Fan Yunzheng furious, her voice rising. "You just tricked me into your hands, and now you're hurling insults at me?"
He never used to swear, you bastard!
Yun Jingshan said matter-of-factly, "I've already tricked them, why should I keep pretending?"
Fan Yunzheng's face turned red with anger, and she raised her hand to strike.
Yun Jingshan quickly hid to the side.
At this moment, a middle-aged cultivator with a square face and a composed demeanor spoke in a loud voice:
"You two can continue flirting tonight, don't waste your time here."
Yun Jingshan and Fan Yunzheng glared at him in unison, but then stopped making a scene.
Another cultivator with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face urged, "Yes, the important matter is paramount, Fellow Daoist Wang. Please use your Spirit Eye Technique as soon as possible to help us find those two Blood-Spirit Flying Shuttle."
Without hesitation, Zhao Hongying used her Flying Sword to lift Wang Mengde into the air once more.
"Walk."
Everyone followed on their swords.
Above the sea, six Flying Sword lined up in a row, slowly flying forward.
Wang Mengde stood on Zhao Hongying's Flying Sword, unleashing the full power of his Spirit Eye Technique.
However, he only demonstrated a level of Peak Mastery skill.
There's no need to reveal your Transcendent Mastery.
With the Spirit Eye Technique scanning the area, the surface and seabed of the sea within a radius of several thousand meters were fully visible.
The group flew slowly over the sea, heading north.
Wang Mengde kept scanning the area, not letting any suspicious place slip by.
Peak Mastery Spirit Eye Technique, when used at its full potential, consumes a great deal of energy.
Just ten minutes later, Wang Mengde's spiritual energy was reduced to less than 20%.
He frowned slightly and gently patted Zhao Hongying's shoulder. "Stop, I've run out of spiritual energy."
Zhao Hongying frowned, turned around and glanced at his face.
"You've run out of spiritual energy in just ten minutes; you can't last long at all."
Wang Mengde's face darkened.
What does it mean to have absolutely no lasting power?
Can't you speak properly?
You're the one who won't last.
He took a deep breath, too lazy to argue with her, and said in a deep voice, "I would appreciate it if Fellow Daoist Zhao could protect me."
Zhao Hongying channeled her spiritual energy, condensing it into a spiritual energy cushion on her Flying Sword.
Wang Mengde sat cross-legged on the spiritual energy futon, took out a jade bottle from his Storage Bag, poured out four Qi-Replenishing Pills, and swallowed them.
The pill melted upon entering the mouth, transforming into a warm medicinal power that surged into the Dantian.
Wang Mengde closed his eyes, concentrated, and circulated his Cultivation Method to refine the medicinal power.
Just a dozen breaths later, he opened his eyes and stood up.
The spiritual energy within my body has almost fully recovered.
The group set off again.
Another ten minutes later.
Wang Mengde told Zhao Hongying to stop again.
Refine four more Qi-Replenishing Pill.
The search continued.
Three more minutes passed.
Wang Mengde's eyes suddenly lit up.
About a kilometer ahead, in the deep sea, lies a seabed covered with silt.
About fifty meters below the silt, two stones lay quietly in the pile of rocks.
The two stones were grayish-brown with rough surfaces, almost blending into the surrounding silt and rocks.
When Wang Mengde scanned this area before, he did not find anything unusual.
But just now, one of the long, narrow stones shifted slightly.
The amplitude is extremely small, so small that it is almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
But under Wang Mengde's Transcendent Mastery Spirit Eye Technique, even the slightest movement could not be hidden.
Wang Mengde quietly increased his Law Power output, subtly elevating his Spirit Eye Technique to a state of Transcendent Mastery, and carefully scanned the area.
Suddenly, my vision became clear.
And it really was those two Blood-Spirit Flying Shuttle.
The search went much more smoothly than he had expected.
You're really lucky.
Wang Mengde quietly dissipated his spiritual power and patted Zhao Hongying on the shoulder. "Stop."
Zhao Hongying frowned deeply. "It's only been two minutes, are you even capable of this...?"
This woman really knows how to talk.
I don't know if it was intentional or not.
Wang Mengde interrupted her, saying in a deep voice, "The target is right in front of me, a thousand meters away, at the bottom of the deep-sea silt, fifty meters deep."
