My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 413 Disappearance
In the Golden Wind Valley,

The howling mountain wind swept across the sky and every corner of the world.

The whole world was shrouded in a hazy yellow light.

The visible range has been reduced to within 100 meters.

at the same time,

Because of the presence of a trace of metal energy in the wind, the omnipresent gale in the air is extremely deadly.

Cultivators need to continuously expend their magical power to resist it.

even,
Even when one's divine sense extends to investigate, the slightest touch of Geng metal energy causes a feeling of stagnation and pain.

Such a harsh environment,
Even if a cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm came...
One could easily get trapped inside, unable to find a way out, and eventually be worn down and die.

This is why, although Golden Wind Valley is quite famous,
But there is no reason why no power has taken over.

However, these

For cultivators who have reached the Nascent Soul stage, this is not a problem.

A soul that has just entered the Out-of-Body realm can cover an area of ​​several miles.

The influence of gaze or line of sight is not that significant.

Even under such harsh conditions,

With a trace of Geng metal energy interfering, it's not a big problem as long as you don't fully open your divine sense for ten days and ten nights.

at this time,

According to the information in Elder Wu's mind,

Shen Changchuan explored and progressed along the way.
It took a day.

Finally, we arrived at a large canyon in the central part of Golden Wind Valley.

Through the yellow sandstorm that obscured their view,

It can be vaguely seen that

Corpse Refining Sect cultivators patrolled the valley surroundings against the fierce winds.

With a divine sense comparable to that of a cultivator at the seventh or even eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm, and possessing some techniques for concealing oneself,

Shen Changchuan began to search the surrounding area.

Half a day later,
We finally got a general idea of ​​what was going on around us.

just,

His mood didn't lighten much; instead, it became heavy.

because,

He did not find any trace of Senior Sister Wei in this canyon!
in contrast,

Below the canyon,
He discovered remnants of the formation, as well as traces of numerous battles in the surrounding area!
It seems,
It seems that someone set up a formation here and then used it as a base to fight a major battle with the Corpse Refining Sect!
Those traces of battle,
Everything points to this!

According to the information in Elder Wu's mind, Shen Changchuan learned that...

At that time, Senior Sister Wei Yuting led a group of outer disciples of the sect to track down the demonic cultivators. They followed them all the way to this place, and it seemed that they wanted to choose this canyon as a place to rest temporarily.

But,
This canyon is exactly where the entrance to the secret realm ruins where that traitor from their Corpse Refining Sect fled and hid is located!
then,

The members of the Corpse Refining Sect, who had been hiding nearby, were forced to expose themselves and prepare to capture the person first.
At the same time, to prevent anyone from escaping, the array that had been lying in ambush nearby was also activated.

What they didn't expect was that Senior Sister Wei was an expert in formations. She easily found the flaw in the formation and used all her strength to break a gap in the sealed formation, allowing a group of outer disciples of the Dragon Sky Sect to escape through the gap.

Looking at the cause and effect,

It can be said,
This was a complete accident!
An unexpected encounter, an unexpected battle!
In this way,
The large area of ​​battle marks below the canyon was mostly left by Senior Sister Wei.

But those present,

Senior Sister Wei has disappeared without a trace.
Only the members of the Corpse Refining Sect patrolled the area closely.

At the same time, at the bottom of the canyon, Shen Changchuan saw the second elder of the Corpse Refining Sect guarding around a spatial vortex.

Those were the only two Nascent Soul Stage 7 cultivators in the Corpse Refining Sect!

It is easy to guess from this.
I must be late.

I missed the battle that took place here!

Senior Sister Wei Yuting is most likely dead, and may even have fallen into their hands!
"Did you lose, Senior Sister?" Shen Changchuan's figure was hidden behind a boulder. Several miles away, he looked at the Corpse Refining Sect members patrolling closely ahead, and at the Corpse Refining Sect's Second Elder guarding the space vortex at the end of the canyon.

His brows furrowed.

My heart sank.
His idea was not without basis.

According to the information in Elder Wu's mind,

The Corpse Refining Sect sent almost its entire force on this trip, including Qiu Kunsheng, the sect leader who had been at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm for many years, as well as the Grand Elder and the Second Elder, who were at the late and early stages of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul realm.

In comparison, Senior Sister Wei's cultivation level was only at the mid-stage of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul realm.

The power gap is too great.

They would be almost certainly no match in a direct confrontation.

The only reliance,
That is, the array formation that Senior Sister Wei is proficient in.

If they can set up formations around them in time, they may be able to hold off the enemy for a period of time.

This is why,
One of the reasons Shen Changchuan was in a hurry to arrive before any reinforcements had arrived was...

because,

Senior Sister Wei may not be strong in direct combat.
But holding firm is still not a big problem.

Hurry up, maybe we can catch up with Zhili.

but,
The person has now disappeared.
Only traces remained on the ground.

The outcome is likely to be very bad!
"The only thing Senior Sister Wei can do is defend. With her strength, it's impossible for her to break through the encirclement of the Corpse Refining Sect's experts without leaving the formation."

"Damn it, if only I had come sooner. What should I do now?"

Shen Changchuan had a headache.

He still remembers the care that Senior Sister Wei took for him during those three years.

If possible,
He didn't want anything to happen to the other party.

But right now.
"At least we haven't seen any trace of Senior Sister Wei yet, which is the only good news."

"Even if they fall into enemy hands, they might still be alive."

"As long as you're alive, there's still hope!"

Shen Changchuan comforted himself in this way.

As a disciple personally taught by the master, if one can capture him, the benefits one can gain in the future will be even greater.

The Corpse Refining Sect is unlikely to go so far as to kill.
just,

Even if Senior Sister Wei survives,

What can I do?

With his own strength, he could barely manage against someone at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage.
However, if facing an eighth-level Nascent Soul cultivator, with two seventh-level cultivators restraining them from the side...
Then all I need to think about is escaping for my life, nothing else!

"Forget it, let's observe for a while. Maybe there will be an opportunity later!"

thinking about it,

Having no better options, Shen Changchuan could only decide to observe the situation for a while.

Let's see if there's an opportunity to make a move.

then,

Shen Changchuan's figure slowly retreated, disappearing into the raging wind, continuing to lie in wait and observe.

time flies,
Half a day has passed in the blink of an eye.

Behind a certain boulder,
Shen Changchuan gazed at the end of the canyon. The Second Elder of the Corpse Refining Sect, who was guarding a spatial vortex almost without leaving his side, activated a communication talisman and flew towards the outside of Golden Wind Valley.

His eyes showed a hint of struggle.
After a while,
He regained his resolve and revealed a hint of murderous intent.

"No one has come in or out all day. It seems the others have already entered that secret realm ruin?"

"Now is the perfect opportunity!"

"Forget it, let's just do it!"
