Leng Tian Xing looked at Gu Qing Shan and said very seriously: “Not to mention, when we attempted the Bai Hua lists, it was thanks to your help that the Saint agreed to help me and remove the damn spider”
Gu Qing Shan laughed, saying: “There’s no need to remember it so clearly you know?”
“I’ll leave first then; we’ll talk with communication talisman when we need to” Leng Tian Xing curtly agreed.
“Ok, be careful” Gu Qing Shan said.
“I’m a Golden Core cultivator, there won’t be any problems, but you, on the other hand”
Leng Tian Xing hesitated for a bit: “You’re only a Foundation Establishment early stage, moving alone in the countryside, will you be alright?”
“Don’t worry” Gu Qing Shan said with conviction.
“Fine, then I’ll go now, we’ll talk more after the mission is done” Leng Tian Xing said.
Saying so, he dashed towards a certain direction without hesitation.
After he left, Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a communication talisman.
He slowly and clearly reported something into the talisman for a while before letting it go.
Bai Hua Immortal country.
Bai Hua Palace.
Bai Hua Fairy was sitting on her ten thousand flower throne, looking at the two people below.
“Is it really that serious?” She asked.
“That’s right, many camps had problems at the same time, quite a few couldn’t even muster retaliation” Xuanyuan Tianzun answered.
“I remember your soul reading technique was quite potent” Bai Hua Fairy said.
“I did silently find and read a few suspicious people’s souls, but found that they were all innocent” Xuanyuan Tianzun replied with an extremely serious expression.
“Monk, your Buddhist thaumaturgy is able to read people’s inner thoughts, did you not do anything?” Bai Hua Fairy questioned further.
“Amitabha, this humble monk also paid attention to over 10 people, but did not find anything as well”
The Great Monk of Sorrow sighed, saying: “This humble monk thinks that, if this is to continue, the frontline will very quickly collapse”
“That’s why we must arrive at the frontline, to give everyone something to be assured about” Xuanyuan Tianzun said.
Bai Hua Fairy thought for a bit, then answered: “Then we can only do that”
Hearing her agree to move, they were both glad.
Bai Hua Fairy is known to not hesitate after she’s decided on something.
Standing up from her throne, she said: “Let’s go now”
The other two Saints also nodded.
As the 3 Saints were about to leave, a flaming talisman flew into Bai Hua Palace, arrived and floated right before the ten thousand flowers throne.
Bai Hua Fairy’s expression shifted a bit, taking the flaming talisman in her hand. As she took the communication talisman, her inner sight read the message inside.
While doing so, Bai Hua Fairy stood still.
After a bit, her expression changed to deep contemplation, and slowly sat back down on her throne.
“What is it?” Xuanyuan Tianzun spoke in a low voice.
Bai Hua Fairy still didn’t answer, thinking hard about something.
Both Xuanyuan Tianzun and the Great Monk of Sorrow found this to be unexpected.
Bai Hua Fairy is one of the strongest cultivators in this world, even if the news said that the frontline has collapsed, she still wouldn’t make that expression.
Then what exactly happened?
Then suddenly, Bai Hua Fairy put her bare feet on the Immortal Jade flower petals, leaning backwards on her throne, showing an expression of surprise and disbelief ———-her expression is similar to that of a young girl who doesn’t have much life experience hearing about some strange things really far away.
“Let’s delay our trip, we’ll wait for a bit longer” she said.
Wait?
The fire in people’s heart is already burning so brightly that humanity’s frontline could collapse at any time if they don’t immediately appear.
The flame battle is also about to ignite, originally, it was supposed to be done by tonight, but from the looks of it, it might just be delayed indefinitely.
Xuanyuan Tianzun and the Great Monk of Sorrow exchanged looks, wanting to say something.
But Bai Hua Fairy had already raised her hand and softly stopped them.
“Trust me, there’s a reason for this, the two of you wouldn’t want to miss this either, just stay here and wait with me” she said.
“Does it have something to do with the frontline?” Xuanyuan Tianzun asked.
“Yes”
“Is it about the matter with the traitors?” the Great Monk of Sorrow asked.
“Yes”
Both their expressions changed.
Bai Hua Fairy slowly spoke: “This news is extremely important to us, so we have to wait”
As she said this, her face showed a smile ever so slightly.
Like she was extremely surprised and proud of something at the same time.
…
Gu Qing Shan looked for a secluded place, hid the two spirit beast bags away very carefully before arranging several layers of formation around himself.
Thinking a bit, he took out a few more pills, ate them then sat down to circulate his spirit energy until it returned to being full.
There were quite a few demon beasts patrolling here and there, but since Gu Qing Shan picked a decent place to hide, not to mention all the formations were carefully picked out and made by Qin Xiao Lou. They worked perfectly as intended, so he was able to escape the demon beast patrols.
Sitting down, he appeared to not be the least bit worried about being discovered by the demon army.
From Foundation Establishment early to last stage, since he broke through in succession, his entire body was feeling uncomfortable from the excessive increase of spirit energy
Fortunately, after that hard battle just now, he’s feeling much better.
Gu Qing Shan was very pleased with this unexpected harvest ———his body feeling like this means it’s rapidly adapting to his new cultivation.
Gu Qing Shan silently checked himself and found Qin Xiao Lou’s presence concealment technique to be extremely good, just as he said.
During the battle just now, he had used all the spirit energy he had, but his spirit energy waves was still only around Foundation Establishment early stage.
Even someone like Leng Tian Xing got fooled.
He can’t help but admit, even though Qin Xiao Lou is a mess a battle, he’s a genius with anything that doesn’t have anything to do with battle.
Feeling around, Gu Qing Shan his body has regained its peak performance.
He then clenched his fist tight and hit himself right in the chest as hard as he could.
Since he used all his body, the attack immediately wounded him.
“Hak!”
He spits out a stream of blood, painting his Xiao Qi Chaplain armor set red.
If anyone were to see this, they would think he went crazy.
The situation is already so dangerous yet he actually harmed himself further, if it’s not crazy then what is it?
But Gu Qing Shan didn’t mind it, wiped the blood from his mouth, used the presence concealment technique to adjust hit spirit energy wave to be even weaker.
After all that, Gu Qing Shan took out a spirit beast bag.
Leng Tian Xing’s spirit beast bag.
He infused spirit energy inside and opened it.
The ice blue giant moth appeared in front of him.
“Where’s Leng Tian Xing?” the moth asked in human language.
“He just left to finish the mission, since I’m wounded so badly, he left you here to protect me” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Wounded badly?” the moth uses its inner sight to scan Gu Qing Shan.
That wasn’t a lie, the young man before it really is wounded quite badly, his spirit energy wave is like a candle flickering in the wind, possibly blown out at any time.
“When is Leng Tian Xing coming back?” the giant moth asked.
“2 days” Gu Qing Shan answered.
Then the giant moth nodded and said: “Then you just focus on recovery, I’ll guard you”
“That’s great, I’ll have to trouble you”
After Gu Qing Shan said so, he couldn’t help but spit out some more blood.
His hand trembled to take out a pill, but missed his mouth quite a few times.
It took all he had to control his trembling hand and put that pill in his mouth.
Gu Qing Shan then closed his eyes, started to circulate his spirit energy.
The giant moth hovered on one side, silently watching him.
Time slowly passed.
Gu Qing Shan’s breathing calmed down as his body entered a silent state.
This was deep meditation.
Deep meditation is an immersive state of cultivation, as your entire body enters a trance, you’re able to feel the laws of the world better, as well as triggering the body’s potential to its limit, very suitable for recovery.
The only weakness is that a person in deep meditation cannot feel anything happening around them.
Without any warning, the air inside the formation became cold.
The moth’s wings started to gather frost and turned into two sharp blades of ice.
Suddenly, it flapped its wings strongly, shooting the two chilling blades of ice spinning towards Gu Qing Shan.
But Gu Qing Shan was still in a state of deep meditation.
The giant moth let out a joyous cry.
It could already see the scene of him falling into a pool of blood.
Its mission is finally complete!
The blades of ice passed through Gu Qing Shan’s body, but no blood spilled.
It was only an afterimage.
Not good!
The giant moth couldn’t react in time, only feeling intense pain on its body.
A sword had pierced through its chest from behind its back.
———why was it like this, he was clearly sitting there, how did he suddenly disappear?
———why is it that before, he was clearly so wounded that he was barely able to stabilize himself at Foundation Establishment, yet right now, his spirit energy wave feels almost as strong as my own?!
The giant moth was deeply confused.
But it wasn’t able to think anymore.
Because the attack wasn’t over and the man behind its back spoke.
“So it really was you that leaked our location”
A thunderous impact was heard inside the formation.
A while later.
Gu Qing Shan put his sword away, thinking deeply.
He tapped his Inventory Bag and threw all the broken formation plates away.
Since there’s a better way to find out the truth now, he doesn’t need to waste his time with these things anymore.
He put away all the formations arranged before, then flew away.
After flying full speed for about half an hour, Gu Qing Shan stopped.
He once again arranged the formations, once again set up a small camp.
When he finished, Gu Qing Shan took out another spirit beast bag.
This was his own spirit beast bag.
Infusing it with spirit energy, the spirit beast bag opened.
The Flame-cloud Chasing Sky Crane appeared in front of him.
“Ah? Where’s your friend?” Flamecloud Chasing Sky Crane looked around and asked.
“He has something else to do” Gu Qing Shan’s tone was weak.
His presence concealment technique once again showed its worth.
“What’s wrong with you?” Flame-cloud Chasing Sky Crane felt that something was wrong, looked back to check on Gu Qing Shan.
Only to see Gu Qing Shan’s feeble form, his entire body was bloodied, the spirit energy he emitted was chaotic and weak.
“I’m hurt quite badly, I don’t know if I could move too far” Gu Qing Shan spoke weakly.
He took out a formation plate and quickly arranged an alarm formation.
A few breaths later, a Wind Spirit formation was successfully arranged.
“You also know how to arrange formations?” Flame-cloud Chasing Sky Crane stared at him and asked.
“I do, I’m actually a Grandmaster formation user. I know about a dozen more formations, but I’m too hurt right now to be able to make them” Gu Qing Shan sighed deeply in regret.
“So you let me out to watch over you?” Flame-cloud Chasing Sky Crane asked.
“That’s right, please be on the look-out for me” Gu Qing Shan randomly put his sword in front of himself and said.
Flame-cloud Chasing Sky Crane looked at the sword in front of him, then suddenly said: “You seem to be hurt really badly. You can’t go on like this. How about I bring you back to camp?”
