It Worked
He took a deep breath, calmed down, and carefully examined the seals he had previously set up in each secret realm.
Due to the barriers of the secret realm, his perception of those seals was extremely weak; unless he specifically sought to perceive them, he could practically not sense them at all.
As he Spirit Concentration his mind to contact the seals, he suddenly discovered that all the seals had been broken!
This means that Liao Pantu's soul may have left those secret realms!
Upon discovering this, Yin Xuanzi's previously calmed heart immediately jumped into suspense again.
Liao Pantu's soul was no longer in the secret realm, and now his physical body had suddenly vanished into thin air.
Doesn't this mean that this kid was killed by someone outside?
Even the physical body was reduced to ashes...
Thinking of this, Yin Xuanzi frowned.
His junior brother is really... dead?
Yin Xuanzi felt a surge of inexplicable anger rise to his chest.
"Feng Xin!"
Two breaths later, a reply came from outside the cave abode: "Disciple is here."
"Immediately send men to those secret realms where your martial uncle is imprisoned to investigate! Find out his whereabouts after his soul left the secret realm as soon as possible!" Yin Xuanzi ordered.
He wanted to see who dared to kill Liao Pantu, whom he had sealed away.
"Your disciple obeys!"

[Ding--City successfully merged. Please select a placement location.]
Six hours after Lin Xiao used the synthesis function, as the countdown ended, the system's notification sounded in Lin Xiao's mind precisely on time.
It's done!
Lin Xiao stood up. Mo Yuanjiao, who had arrived a quarter of an hour earlier to wait, saw him move and immediately asked:
"Sect Leader, is it all better now?"
"Alright, let's go. Let's call Liu Yunan and the others and go to the village to say hello to everyone first," Lin Xiao said with a happy smile.
They need to inform the people down the mountain first, since their current area will be included once the city is completed.
We should give advance notice to avoid causing panic among the people living at the foot of the mountain.
Mo Yuanjiao used the Lock Ring to inform Liu Yunan that the city was ready and they would be landing soon.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yunan and the others all put down their work and rushed down the mountain to gather.
Previously, Liu Yunan had spoken to the village chief, Du Liushui, about the town's construction. Du Liushui had also privately mentioned it to the villagers of Xiushui Village and those who had moved there in recent years.
Although no one knew exactly how the city would be built, when it would start, or how large it would be, it didn't diminish their faith in the Lingxian Sect. Upon learning of this, everyone was overjoyed.
We were all so excited because we thought we were about to become townspeople, but we never expected to have the chance to be city dwellers!
Therefore, as soon as Village Chief Du received Liu Yunan's notification, he immediately took out the large iron pot that Lin Xiao had repaired before and started banging it open in the village.
"The city is being built! The city is being built! Folks, come out quickly! Our village is going to be built into a city!"
Although Village Chief Du did not take the main road that tourists often use, but only called out on the small paths inside the village, he was still heard by many passing tourists.
Seeing the beaming faces of the villagers who had been setting up stalls nearby upon hearing the news, they asked curiously:
"Isn't this supposed to be a town? Why are you calling it a city?"
A villager explained it to him:
"It was originally intended to be a town. Look at that Dayi outer wall, isn't it all very sturdy? That's what the immortals from our Lingxian Sect said not long ago!"
"Yes, yes, it seems they're going to build some kind of Trade Center? The immortal said that soon more and more people will come to our village, one town won't be enough, we'll have to build a city!" a villager added.
"I've heard that many more immortals from other places might come to our place in the future!"
"Oh really? Then our place will become a village of immortals from now on?"
"What are you talking about? Once the city is built, it'll be a celestial city!"
The tourists listened, completely bewildered.
Is this city something that can be built just like that?
Moreover, apart from the outer wall being built around Xiushui Village, some houses have been erected, and some roads have been leveled and widened, it's still a far cry from being a town.
Some tourists were skeptical, while others were not so convinced, thinking that the villagers were just bragging and exaggerating the establishment of a town into the construction of a city.
After all, these country folk just love to brag.
Whether they believe it or not, the construction of Xiushui Village into a city is imminent.
The people of Xiushui Village didn't care about the suspicious looks from the tourists. Over the years, as they came into contact with more and more people, the villagers of Xiushui Village have become more knowledgeable and experienced. Many of them are no longer as timid and hesitant as they used to be when they went to the market.
Of course, there are also those who, due to their stubbornness, remain unchanged.
When Village Chief Du arrived at the small estate they had given to the Lingxian Sect, along with many villagers who were either free or had temporarily put aside their work, Lin Xiao and the others were already surveying the surrounding terrain.
Although they had already determined the general area, now that the city's exact appearance was fully revealed, Lin Xiao could more intuitively choose the placement location with a direct reference point.
Upon seeing the village chief and his group arrive, the people from Xiushui Village in the Lingxian Sect greeted them warmly.
When the idea of building a city for Xiushui Village was announced, even the elders like Lin Dayou, who usually stayed in the sect farming, came along.
They were quite enthusiastic when the town was being built, and now that they're going to build a city, these old guys are incredibly excited.
After all, Xiushui Village is their homeland where they have lived most of their lives. Even though they have now embarked on the path of cultivation, it is only a change in their lifestyle; their feelings for each other remain the same.
The elders were exchanging pleasantries, while Liu Yunan and the other young people obediently stayed by their side.
After politely greeting his elders, Lin Xiao flew high into the sky, took the synthesized city out of his private treasury, and began to select a placement location based on the city's illusory form.
As the illusory image of the city appeared and enlarged before Lin Xiao, it grew to a normal size compared to reality.
From the phantom of this city, one can see towering and solid city walls, inside which are crisscrossing sewer pipes, the main office buildings of the city, smooth and wide city roads, various green gardens, and most importantly, the Trade Center area.
What shrouded the entire city was a huge canopy that was invisible to the naked eye.
Its shape is exactly like the Spirit Dike Turtle Shell, which is worth 100,000 Spirit Stone.
With this, you will need to provide a transaction receipt whenever you purchase items registered at the Trade Center and leave the city.
It also incorporates various defensive formations, preventing cultivators from causing chaos in the city and making it difficult for outsiders to breach it.
