As the Universe Turns - Chapter 854
Chapter 854 The Mysterious Black-Robed Man
The seven peaks of Xuan Qing were steep and upright, It was far from being comparable to the Yang Pass below. Due to the suppression of spiritual veins at the foot of the mountain, it was actually extremely dangerous between the seven peaks. Normally, disciples were not allowed to casually ride their swords. Because once they accidentally fell down and were dragged into the terrifying Spiritual Energy, even immortals might not be able to see the entire corpse. For example, the Cliff of Burial Immortals in Lian Feng Tower, where Spiritual Energy met, was the most terrifying place.
At this moment, Xiao Chen displayed the lightning arts taught by Xiao Cangtian, and in conjunction with Ling Xian Step, he didn’t use profound energy, nor did he touch any restrictions. He could also walk swiftly between these cliffs.
Xuan Qing’s seven peaks were Tianshu Peak, Tianxuan Peak, Tianquan Peak, Xuanyang Peak, Wang Hengfeng Peak, Yuji Peak, and Purple Night Peak.
Tianshu Peak was where Sect Leader Daoist Qingxuan was.
Skyjade Peak was where Qianyu Nichang’s master, Excellency Mei Yue, was.
The Heavenly Quan Peak was the location of the Li Yuan Excellency.
Xuanyang Peak was where Excellency Xuanyang was.
Wang Hengfeng was the location of Yuheng Excellency’s Hidden Profound Mirror.
Yu Ji Peak was where Excellency Yi Huanzhen of Heaven’s Secrets was.
As for Purple Night Peak, that was where Yaoguang Fairy Ling Yin was.
The unusual Spiritual Energy fluctuation just now came from the direction of Tianshu Peak. Xiao Chen followed his senses and flew as fast as he could, avoiding those aggressive Spiritual Energy currents. Very quickly, he arrived at the foot of the mountain behind Tianshu Peak.
The Spiritual Energy fluctuations came from the valley behind him, so he naturally didn’t need to go up the mountain. He was already very close to the valley.
The further he went, the colder the surroundings became. Xiao Chen held his breath and carefully approached. Tianshu Peak was where Sect Leader Qingxuan was. Could it be that someone was actually moving Xuanqing Mountain in Spiritual Energy? Who has such great ability …
Suddenly, he remembered the Heavenly Gate’s change more than ten years ago. On that day, apart from Cangfeng Valley Grand Patriarch of Feng Xuanzhi, there was another mysterious cyan-robed man who came to the Heavenly Gate.
At that time, the mysterious cyan-robed man wore a profound Dao Art and was extremely powerful. With just a single Dao Seal, he was able to block Xiao Cangtian’s Heaven Swallowing Devil Technique.
At that time, Uncle Mei and Senior Martial Uncle Jiang Nan were also present. When they asked if that was Xuanqing Sect’s Dao Art, that person only said that Xuan Qing’s Dao Art was vast and profound. He only had a slight understanding of it.
Afterwards, the mysterious cyan-robed man fought with Feng Xuanzhi for the Heavenly Book in Xiao Cangtian’s hand. Under the pull of the three of them, the pages of the Heavenly Book spread out, but there were no words on it.
Finally, the mysterious cyan-robed man left at an unknown time. No one noticed, because at that time, everyone’s attention was on him, Shen Cangming, and Daoist Feng Yin.
At this moment, Xiao Chen thought carefully, who exactly was that person? If it was Daoist Qingxuan, then it would be too terrifying. Daoist Qingxuan has no reason to do this, right?
If it weren’t for Daoist Qingxuan, who would be so proficient in Xuan Qing’s dao arts? For example, Daoist Xuanyang, Cang Xuanjing, and the others might not be able to do so.
At this moment, with doubt in his heart, Xiao Chen slowly approached the valley. Sure enough, when he reached the valley, he felt an extremely subtle aura. Although the person had hidden the aura very deeply, it was still detected by his sharp divine sense.
Who is in this valley?
At this moment, Xiao Chen was even more puzzled. This was below Tianshu Peak, not everyone had come. The reason he was able to quietly enter was because of his keen six senses and his familiarity with Xuanqing Sect. That was why he avoided the restrictions. If it was anyone else, even someone as strong as Feng Xuanzhi would definitely not be able to enter.
This person was very familiar with Xuan Qing!
At this moment, when Xiao Chen was about to inspect, a hand suddenly grabbed him from behind and pulled him behind a huge boulder.
In a flash of lightning and flint, when Xiao Chen reacted, he could already smell a familiar fragrance entering his nose. The person beside him was like a flawless moon, and his clothes were drifting out of the dust. It was none other than Qianyu Nichang.
“Shh …”
Qianyu Nichang immediately put his finger to his lips and made a silent gesture.
Under the moonlight, she was graceful and graceful, as if the Nine Heavens Fairy was in the dust. Her entire body emitted a peerless immortal energy. Other than Ling Yin, the only person who could compare to this immortal energy on her body was probably Fairy Meng Xian’er.
“Don’t say anything. That person’s cultivation is above yours and mine.” Qianyu Nichang immediately sent him a divine will.
“Who … is that person?”
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows furrowed as he sent her a divine sense. He thought that if that person could come under Tianshu Peak, he would definitely not be an ordinary person. But Qianyu Nichang had already discovered it. Could it be that Daoist Qingxuan had not discovered it yet? This is a little strange …
“I don’t know either …”
Qianyu Nichang also gradually frowned. Xiao Chen looked at her. He didn’t know what she was thinking. Even the Seven Paragons of Xuan Qing couldn’t discover the difference below. Why was she able to discover it so coincidentally?
The two of them stretched their divine senses forward and saw that the man was wearing a battle robe. He couldn’t see his appearance clearly under the moonlight. At this moment, a gloomy voice came from beneath the battle robe. “Little friends, since you’re here, why should you hide?”
Both of them felt their hearts tighten. They didn’t expect that they would be so cautious. However, the moment their divine sense reached out, they were immediately discovered by each other. Indeed, this person’s cultivation was above theirs.
“The person hiding should be your Excellency.” Qianyu Nichang’s eyes were cold as he suddenly flew out. A cold light flashed on his waist and Qiushui was already unsheathed.
“Watch out.”
Xiao Chen also flew out in an instant. The mysterious man condensed his finger and a finger force came. With a “zheng” sound, he struck the Autumn Water Sword. Xiao Chen instantly stepped forward and used his power to block Qianyu Nichang. Even so, the two of them were greatly pushed back by the man’s finger force.
Xiao Chen flicked his sleeve, and the cold light rose again under the moonlight, “Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!” Three times, three Blood Transformation Needles shot towards that person.
Under such darkness, even if an ordinary person had reached the True Cave Stage, it would be extremely difficult for him to avoid these three Blood Transformation Needles. However, that person’s body was like a ghost, instantly transforming into three phantom images. The three Blood Transformation Needles actually shot onto his phantom images.
“Zheng!”
With a swift sound, Qianyu Nichang slashed down again. Qiushui Wuying, Sword Qi Ling Ren, and the Xiao Chen Blood Transformation Divine Needle shot out like lightning. The two of them had an exceptionally tacit understanding of each other. Even though that person’s cultivation was higher than theirs, they still didn’t dare to let down their guard in the face of their fierce attacks.
Seemingly worried that this would attract the rest of Xuanqing Sect, the mysterious black-robed man raised his sleeve and turned into a wisp of mist. Qianyu Nichang was about to chase after him when Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and said, “Stop chasing.”
As he spoke, that person had disappeared without a trace.
Qianyu Nichang stared in the direction where the man had disappeared. He remained silent for a long time, as if he was deep in thought. Finally, he turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. “Why are you here?”
“I was just about to ask, this is Tianshu Peak. Junior Sister is not at Skyjade Peak, but here. It makes people curious.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he picked up the Blood Transformation Needle on the ground. The two of them exchanged glances. At this moment, it was as sharp as the tip of a needle.
