Chang Ping'an was an utterly unremarkable member of the Chang Household's many disciples, only at the fourth layer of Qi Refining and roughly in his twenties.
That day, he was searching for something inside a hall.
The place Chang Ping'an was searching was precisely where the third leader of the Three Pythons Bandits had stayed.
The shadow lurking in the depths saw Chang Ping'an enter. A sharp gleam immediately flashed in his eyes, and he slipped out silently.
With the Demon Seed's power to conceal his aura, along with Foundation Establishment-level spiritual sense and magic power,
these Qi Refining Stage small fry could not detect him at all.
This shadow was none other than Qing Chen.
Seeing Chang Ping'an step into the place he had prepared, Qing Chen summoned the White Bone Demon Mara Banner.
With a gentle wave, a soul-seizing power immediately enveloped Chang Ping'an.
Chang Ping'an felt his mind grow hazy. As though drawn by an invisible force, he involuntarily walked in a certain direction.
Eventually, Chang Ping'an stopped before a seemingly ordinary wall.
In a daze, he reached out and gently knocked on the wall. "Huh? Something's off!"
This discovery instantly cleared his head somewhat, and an inexplicable sense of wonder welled up inside him.
Seeing that he had finally found the hidden secret, Qing Chen gently waved his hand. The demon banner's power silently dispersed, as though it had never existed.
Chang Ping'an's heart raced, as though he had discovered a doorway to a new world.
Unable to contain his delight, his hands trembled involuntarily as he began feeling around this seemingly ordinary room.
After some exploration, he discovered that this was actually a mortal mechanism technique, something he had studied a little before.
His gaze swept around the room before finally settling on a vase.
