The military's processing would take some time, so Ning Chuan didn't stay in the forest long. After sending the message, he and Lu Zhan flew back to the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.
On the way, they ran into Yu Wei.
She came specifically to find the two of them.
It's easy to see that this behavior is extremely dangerous.
If Ning Chuan and Lu Zhan are defeated, she will surely die!
Yu Wei showed no fear, only nervousness and anxiety. Upon seeing Ning Chuan, she was overjoyed.
"Lord, you're alright! That's wonderful!"
Yu Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she reported the situation, saying, "Many disciples of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace have evacuated the ancestral land. The injured disciples are hiding in Flower City, while the rest are leaving using various means of transportation."
"No need, just call them back. The matter is resolved."
Ning Chuan briefly recounted the story of recalling Lin Longxing's memories, specifically pointing out that the deputy palace master with a mole between his eyebrows was a traitor.
Unexpectedly, his opponent died in the aftermath of his battle with Lin Longxing.
It's truly a cruel twist of fate!
After hearing this, Yu Wei was still shaken.
There really is a Heavenly King plotting against the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace!
If it weren't for Ning Chuan, Ten Thousand Flowers Palace would probably have been reduced to ashes!
"Okay, I'll inform them right away."
Yu Wei nodded.
Soon, the three of them returned to the sacred mountain of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.
Many disciples rushed back one after another.
Yu Wei was extremely busy, instructing her disciples to repair buildings, clean up ruins, and undertake various other tasks.
Ning Chuan had some free time. After healing Lu Zhan's injuries, he had nothing else to do. After thinking for a moment, he took Lu Zhan to the Sacred Medicine Field.
The Ten Thousand Flowers Palace has joined the Supreme Hall; he has that authority.
I just went there yesterday, so I know the way in Ning Chuan like the back of my hand.
Find the stone building in the mountains and forests, open the secret passage, go down to the end of the cave, and then pass through the portal.
Swish!
Suddenly, their view opened up, and the two entered the Sacred Medicine Field.
Bright sunlight streamed down, the plants were lush, and a faint, refreshing fragrance filled the air.
Why does Lin Fengyang want this space?
Ning Chuan looked around, lost in thought.
Yu Wei had told him that the peculiarity of the Sacred Medicine Field lay mainly in its soil, which was capable of cultivating sacred medicines and was rich in extremely abundant dark energy.
It even fills the space so much that it overflows and radiates throughout the entire sacred mountain.
"The holy medicine is probably not Lin Fengyang's goal."
Ning Chuan shook his head inwardly.
The Ten Thousand Flowers Palace has been located on this site for over ten thousand years.
According to records, the soil in the Sacred Medicine Field has remained almost unchanged.
Lin Fengyang clearly pointed out that once the Martial Star recovers, the Sacred Medicine Field will be extremely important and will be of great use in the future!
For a Heavenly King, merely cultivating sacred herbs is far from sufficient.
"That's all that's left!"
Finally, Ning Chuan's gaze fell upon the thick fog at the edge.
He had a premonition that Lin Fengyang's plot to seize the Sacred Medicine Field was most likely related to him.
" Uncle Lu, come inside with me."
Ning Chuan turned his head to the side and explained, "There's a murderous aura emanating from the thick fog; it gets stronger the further in you go."
"OK."
Lu Zhan agreed and stepped forward.
boom!
The thick fog billowed, and a murderous aura surged forth, relentlessly and heavily striking the two intruders with earth-shattering force and unparalleled power!
Lu Zhan's spirit is weaker than Ning Chuan's, but his Mystic Truth is stronger!
In addition, Ning Chuan condensed the seventh Force Wheel, possessing immense Force. Together, they successfully blocked the attack with its murderous aura!
Before long, the two walked more than ten steps and reached the end of the thick fog.
Ahead, the pitch-black fog stretched as far as the eye could see, calm as a mirror, without a ripple, and without the slightest breath.
But precisely because of this, it felt eerily silent, chilling to the bone.
Just like last time, Ning Chuan felt a sharp pain in his body as a warning.
"This black mist is extremely dangerous!"
Lu Zhan's expression turned serious; he seemed to have sensed something.
Ning Chuan stared at the black mist, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll test it out."
He was very curious; what could it be that could attract Lin Fengyang?
"I'll do it."
Lu Zhan spoke up from the side.
"It's alright, I have healing martial arts skills, so I'm fine even if I get injured!"
Ning Chuan refused, smiled, and said, " Uncle Lu, you stay here and keep watch. If an attack comes, you can help block it."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhan nodded in agreement.
He had just witnessed Ning Chuan's healing abilities; they were incredibly powerful, even terrifying.
"Let's begin."
Lu Zhan tensed up, a dark, blazing sun rising, ready for battle.
Seeing this, Ning Chuan raised his hand, covered with a thick layer of golden Force, and gently extended it forward, pressing it against the black mist.
The moment I touched it, a chilling coldness washed over me.
The Force simply cannot stop it!
Ning Chuan felt his fingertips were almost frozen.
This is amazing.
It should be noted that, given the strength of his physical body, temperature is unlikely to have any effect.
However, apart from the cold, the black fog showed no other unusual activity.
Ning Chuan gradually increased his strength and pressed inward, only to find that the black mist was extremely solid. He unleashed all his power, his physical body and Force roaring, but he could not make the black mist change shape in the slightest.
The key point is that as Ning Chuan intensified his efforts, the chill emanating from the black fog became increasingly icy.
Ning Chuan was covered in solidified ice, resembling an ice sculpture, and his blood was almost frozen.
Whoosh!
Ning Chuan abruptly withdrew his hand, shattering the ice on his body, which then scattered in all directions.
His skin was red and had some frostbite, but under the treatment of the Blood-Drop Life Creation Technique, it healed rapidly and became translucent and lustrous.
Have you found anything?
Lu Zhan asked a question.
"Um."
Ning Chuan nodded and solemnly informed him, "The black mist is extremely hard and very cold!"
Lu Zhan: "..."
He's not blind; he can see it.
"Okay, enough joking!"
Ning Chuan grinned and said, "Indeed, there's an important discovery!"
As he spoke, his smile faded, and he said in a deep voice, "I vaguely sense that the black mist is dissipating!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan glanced at the black mist, his eyes flashing slightly.
Ning Chuan turned around and said, "Let's get out first. We definitely can't go in now. I doubt even Great River Realm Heavenly King could break through the black mist."
The words had barely left his mouth.
The two left the thick fog.
boom!
At this moment, a starry river appeared above the Sacred Medicine Field, ancient and weathered, as if containing the supreme power of destiny!
Ning Chuan used his Stargazing Method to predict when the black fog would completely dissipate.
Hundreds of Stars crisscross, rapidly orbiting and intertwining, tracing mysterious and obscure paths.
Ning Chuan looked up and gazed silently.
After a long while, the Milky Way gradually stopped and disappeared. Ning Chuan's prediction was correct, and he drew his conclusion.
"Within a year..."
Ning Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The timing is close to, or even the same as, the revival of Martial Star.
Considering Lin Fengyang's words, it's not hard to conclude that the dissipation of the black mist is closely related to the revival of the Martial Star.
But Ning Chuan didn't know what kind of relationship it was or what would happen.
boom!
With a thought, Ning Chuan saw the dazzling Milky Way reappear, swirling and intertwining.
What will happen after the black fog disappears?
Ning Chuan silently recited this in his mind and began to make a prediction.
The Milky Way flows and traces its path.
However, a long time has passed, and many Stars are still orbiting, without stopping.
Ning Chuan withdrew his gaze and shook his head inwardly.
He couldn't see any useful information; everything was chaotic and disorganized.
The prediction failed!
Ning Chuan wasn't too disappointed.
Predicting the future often requires specificity; vague statements like "what will happen" are too general and unlikely to be successful.
Of course, even if a prediction is successful, it doesn't mean it will actually come true.
The future is full of uncertainties, and the predicted outcome is just one possibility among many.
Lin Fengyang should know something about this.
An idea flashed through my mind.
Ning Chuan and Lu Zhan strode forward, leaving the Sacred Medicine Field.
P. S.: Many readers are prophets, so Formaldehyde is issuing a challenge!
Can you guess what the Sacred Medicine Field really looks like?
Just a heads-up, the key clues have already been planted in the earlier parts of the text!
