Chapter 743 Dongyou, Jiezhou Island!
Seeing Ning Zhichuan's solemn expression and his silence for a long time, Lin Que's heart skipped a beat!
A bad feeling arose...
But he still asked in a deep voice, "Valley Master Ning, what happened to that place?"
At this moment, even Liu Qingyi, who was standing to the side, felt her heart sink when she saw the two of them with such heavy expressions!
She knew, of course, what the place Lin Que had asked Ning Zhichuan to send people to investigate was, and she also knew how important that place was to them.
It should be noted that when Lin Que used the Illusionary Demon Chongming Teleportation Altar, he modified the array patterns of that sacrificial teleportation array, allowing him to be randomly teleported to other places on the Chongming Continent.
Imagine if he hadn't done that; Lin Que might have been surrounded by the cultivators of the Chongming Divine Sect the moment he stepped into the Chongming Continent.
So, to be on the safe side, he had no choice but to do this.
However, the consequence of doing so is that we cannot know where the teleportation altar to return to the Illusionary Demon Continent is.
Even if he knew, Lin Que estimated that there would be countless Chongming Divine Sect cultivators guarding that place, making it an extremely dangerous location for them.
Since returning the way he came was not an option, Lin Que could only think of one place!
That place is connected to the Ice Valley Abyss of the Sealed Heaven Continent!
Once, when Lin Que was chatting alone with Huan Caili, Huan Caili told him about her experience in the strange place of Binggu Tianyuan, where she killed many strange creatures.
According to her description, these creatures actually had the same aura as those low-level extraterrestrial demons!
In addition, Huan Qingcheng had told him some things about that place, so Lin Que guessed that those strange creatures were definitely related to the Chongming Continent!
Because in the entire Wind Spirit Realm, only the Chongming Continent was completely tainted by the dark aura!
Since those strange creatures could enter the Fengtian Continent through that place, Lin Que also planned to return in the same way, and asked Ning Zhichuan to send someone to inquire.
Judging from Ning Zhichuan's expression now, things might not be looking good!
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhichuan raised his hand, which had been suspended in mid-air, and gently swirled the teacup. Looking at the pale yellow tea inside, he slowly spoke:
“The people I sent did indeed find that place.”
"But... we cannot set foot within a hundred miles of it!"
"Besides the incredibly powerful dark aura there, there are countless dark creatures corrupted by it!"
"Countless...approximately how many?" Lin Que's gaze darkened!
Ning Zhichuan paused, then downed the tea in his cup in one gulp, giving Lin Que a complicated look.
"Within a hundred miles, as far as the eye can see, it is everywhere!"
hiss~!
After Ning Zhichuan finished speaking, the entire pavilion and hall fell silent, save for the sound of deep breaths...
After a long while, Lin Que finally calmed down, a resolute glint in his eyes!
"We hope that Valley Master Ning can tell us the location of that place!"
"Dongyou, Jiezhou Island!"
Ning Zhichuan didn't hesitate or try to persuade him; he simply told Lin Que the location.
After all, he saw determination in Lin Que's eyes, and he figured he couldn't persuade him even if he wanted to. However, he believed that Lin Que would weigh the options himself.
"Thank you!"
"Consider this a favor I owe you, Valley Master Ning!"
......
An hour later, Lin Que and his companions emerged from Ning Zhichuan's pavilion and headed towards the snow-capped mountain where Xu Changxian was located.
"Lin Que, if that place is too dangerous, we might as well..." On the way, Liu Qingyi frowned and said seriously.
However, Lin Que waved his hand and said, "I will consider this. Even if we have to go back the way we came, I estimate that the teleportation array altar is in or near the headquarters of the Divine Cult in Cangzhong Shenbei City."
"But it definitely won't be too far!"
"Although I don't know how well it's guarded there, I imagine it's not bad."
"Let's go check out the Eastern Netherworld Islands first. If it doesn't work out, we can discuss it further."
"Moreover, that place east of Dongyou..."
At this point, a resolute glint flashed in Lin Que's eyes again, even stronger than when he was in the pavilion!
Since they're all in the same place, how could Lin Que possibly give up!
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyi opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say, so she remained silent.
Having spent a long time with Lin Que, Liu Qingyi knew that once he made a decision, it was irreversible. She estimated that even if he only had one arm left, he would crawl over to see him before he would be satisfied.
As for Shen Wuliang, he didn't care; he would go wherever Lin Que went anyway.
For him, as long as there's a fight, he's fine, since he won't die anyway.
Soon, Lin Que and his group of four arrived at the foot of the snow mountain where Xu Changxian was, and then climbed up step by step, just like last time.
Although Ji Qian and Shen Wuliang were initially puzzled, they became obedient after Lin Que let them try flying.
However, when they reached the summit of the snow-capped mountain, Lin Que and the others were surprised not to see Xu Changxian reciting poetry to the sea of clouds outside.
However, Lin Que soon heard a familiar sound of curiosity and crying coming from the snow mountain cave next to him, and immediately realized that Xu Changxian was inside the cave.
"By the way..."
"Senior Xu, what is so special about this ghost cultivator?"
"Yeah, yeah! We overlooked it back then, and now we realize that ghost cultivators seem to only exist in legends, right?"
"Ghost cultivators... they're really good stuff, hehe!"
"No! Stop torturing me, waaaaah~!"
"..."
The closer they got to the cave, the clearer the sounds became, causing Lin Que and Liu Qingyi to exchange bewildered glances, wondering how much suffering Xiao Hei had endured during this time.
But judging from the voices, it seemed that two familiar people were also there.
as predicted!
When Lin Que and his companions entered the cave, they indeed saw Ning Yanxue and Mu Qiaoqiao.
No wonder I didn't see Ning Yanxue in the peach blossom forest or in Ning Zhichuan's pavilion. It turns out she ran to Xu Changxian's place.
"You're back. How was your harvest?" Xu Changxian, a powerful soul cultivator, had naturally sensed the arrival of Lin Que and the others long ago, and greeted them with a smile.
"Ok?"
"This old gentleman... he looks somewhat familiar!"
After speaking, Xu Changxian looked at Ji Qian beside him with some surprise, stroking his chin as he pondered.
"Senior Xu!" Upon hearing this, Lin Que and Liu Qingyi immediately clasped their hands in response.
"Huh? Lin Que, you're back!" Upon hearing the voice, Ning Yanxue and Mu Qiaoqiao, who were squatting in the corner observing the shivering Xiao Hei, immediately turned around in surprise to look at Lin Que.
"Waaaaah~! You're finally back!"
The moment Xiao Hei, who was trembling with fear, saw Lin Que, his eyes lit up with surprise!
As if given a glimmer of hope, it instantly transformed into a black soul and rushed over, entering Lin Que's body and leaving Lin Que, who was about to greet Ning Yanxue, completely bewildered.
"Quick! Get me out of here!"
"I don't want to stay here a single second longer!!!"
