Chapter 1023 - 1016: He Still Came!
"A space channel? There's actually a space channel here?!"
Xue Kuang's old eyes suddenly narrowed, revealing a hint of astonishment.
However, thinking about it, it made sense. The Nanqi Plain was quite vast, and this region was desolate, with cultivators rarely coming here.
Moreover, this space channel was hidden between the mountains. It was normal for a suddenly appearing space channel to remain undiscovered.
"Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit..."
At this moment, the Blood Toad on Xue Kuang's shoulder puffed up its abdomen and let out a few croaks.
"Hmm?"
Xue Kuang's gaze shifted to the Blood Toad on his shoulder.
"You mean, Yun'Er's aura disappeared here?"
Receiving the information from the Blood Toad, Xue Kuang's eyes flashed coldly as he looked at the pale silver space channel.
"So it seems, Yun'Er and the other two entered this space channel, then perished in that indigenous plane?"
Xue Kuang's cold and fierce eyes glimmered.
In the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain, there were some space channels leading to certain indigenous planes.
Most indigenous planes were of a lower level than the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain, and many contained great opportunities.
In this space channel ahead, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi from the relatively desolate Nanqi Plain was blowing inward. Obviously, the other side of the channel was a lowly plane with sparse Spiritual Qi.
"Ling Yun and the other two weren't weak, yet they perished in a lowly plane?!"
Before the space channel, the cold light in Xue Kuang's eyes flickered. A moment later, the sharpness returned to his eyes, having made a decision.
"Hmph, I have to see what kind of lowly plane this space channel leads to."
Xue Kuang snorted coldly at the space channel.
Boom!
In the next instant, powerful energy erupted from Xue Kuang, and his figure flashed directly into the space channel.
Inside the pale silver space channel, Xue Kuang's figure shot through it towards the other end.
East Sea Surface.
At this moment, it was afternoon.
Sunlight spilled onto the sea surface, creating shimmering waves.
In mid-air, Spiritual Energy continued to blow from the space channel onto the sea surface.
On a nearby island, Qin Yang, Zilan, Nangong Feiyang, and others sat cross-legged on rocky formations on the beach.
Zilan, Nangong Feiyang, and others had their eyes closed, Spiritual Power glimmering around them as they cultivated.
Only Qin Yang was still refining array flags.
In the air before him, twenty array flags floated.
"Phew."
Qin Yang exhaled, looking at the floating array flags with a slight smile on his lips.
"Just these twenty Level Four array flags left."
Light flickered in Qin Yang's eyes. Once these twenty Level Four array flags were completed, he could set out for the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain by morning!
"Seven months and ten days."
Qin Yang silently mused, with a hint of longing in his eyes.
Sister Ruan had left him for over seven months; time had flown by. He wondered how she was managing alone in that unfamiliar plane.
"But Sister Ruan, I'll come to find you soon."
Qin Yang's fists clenched slightly, determination flashing in his eyes.
"Continue refining."
Swish!
With a gesture of his right hand, Qin Yang drew an array flag towards him.
Buzz~!!
Spiritual Power surged at Qin Yang's fingertips as he inscribed array patterns on the flag, the intricate patterns interweaving on the flag's surface, glowing brightly.
As Qin Yang worked on the remaining twenty array flags,
a sudden fluctuation appeared at the pale silver space channel mouth.
In that moment, Qin Yang's expression changed, his head snapping up to look at the channel's entrance.
Swish!
At the same time Qin Yang looked over, a wizened elder flashed out from the fluctuating space entrance.
Swish, swish, swish!
In that instant, Zilan, Nangong Feiyang, Bi Luoyue, Nangong Huozhu, Mu Shuiyuan, and Leng Feng all opened their eyes from cultivation, looking at the figure in mid-air.
The wizened elder wore blood-red robes with silver patterned borders, exuding a certain nobility.
"He's here, after all!"
Seeing the wizened elder, Qin Yang's pupils contracted sharply, his expression darkening slightly.
Zilan, Nangong Feiyang, and others looked at one another, their gazes also sharpening.
"So this is the indigenous plane on the other side of the channel?"
Xue Kuang's cold and sharp eyes surveyed the world before him.
"Ribbit, ribbit..."
On Xue Kuang's shoulder, the Blood Toad croaked twice.
"You smelled traces of Yun'Er's aura here?"
Xue Kuang's brows immediately thrummed upward, cold light flashing in his eyes. Indeed, Yun'Er had perished in this indigenous plane.
Buzz!
Divine Sense expanded from the center of Xue Kuang's brows, covering thousands of miles around.
All the sea creatures and nearby islands were sensed by Xue Kuang's mind.
"The sea in this area is filled with such low-level marine life; most are low-level beasts, the strongest being just a Late Stage Tier Two Demon Beast."
The light in Xue Kuang's eyes flickered. Apparently, the lowliness of this plane exceeded his expectations.
In the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain, the vast Star Luo Sea contained many powerful Sea Race Demon Beasts. Even with his strength, he dared not roam freely in the Star Luo Sea alone.
"Hmm?!"
In an instant, a deadly gleam shot from Xue Kuang's pupils as he turned to a desolate island.
On that island were seven figures.
"Human cultivators?!"
Xue Kuang's sharp gaze fixed on the figures on the island. These seven figures seemed prepared, as if awaiting his arrival.
"Let's go!"
As Xue Kuang's gaze turned, Qin Yang's eyes also sharpened, swiftly collecting the array flags before him, and said gravely to Nangong Feiyang and others.
"Yes, Sect Leader."
Nangong Feiyang and the others nodded without hesitation.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Qin Yang, Nangong Feiyang, Zilan, and others shot towards Xue Kuang. In a breath's time, they stood opposite Xue Kuang.
"A few Immortal Spirit Realm ants."
Xue Kuang's cold, sharp gaze fell on Qin Yang and the others. Immediately, he perceived their cultivation levels.
Yet a few Immortal Spirit Realm ants were nothing to him. Below the Immortal Venerable Realm, everything was an ant.
However, it was clear these ants were stationed before the space channel, seemingly expecting someone to emerge from it.
"Perfect. I can gather information about this plane and Yun'Er from these ants."
Xue Kuang's eyes flickered with cold light, clearly not caring about these indigenous people's lives or deaths.
Ordinary cultivators entering indigenous planes would perform Soul Searching on the lower-level people of the indigenous plane to understand it more clearly.
