Hey guys, Sietse here. This is our first sponsored chapter thanks to Kirk. We’ve had a hard time to reach a regular release, yet Kirk still believes in us, and rightly so. Many thanks Kirk, we really appreciate it. I can hereby say, that we’re finally managing with one new translator. Sean, the guy who translated this chapter, has joined our team and has promised to give us 5-7 chapters/week. Anyway, I’ll shut up and let you all enjoy this chapter! ;)
……
After Nie Tian and Pan Tao left, they chose a direction and walked for a while before stopping.
“If they want the food from the Black Mist Palace to last until the exit of the Green Illusion Realm opens, everyone will have to go hungry in the future.” Pan Tao looked into the distance, and said, “It’s also our fault. We were just trying to rush here as quickly as possible, and threw away a lot of food in the process.”
Nie Tian laughed, “Hah, it’s actually my fault. Before you came, Zheng Bin thought that his food was enough to feed everyone for a long time, and let me wantonly eat it. They never thought that you’d be in such a sorry situation, and arrive empty-handed.”
Actually, he didn’t have much of an opinion towards Zheng Bin.
After being with the cultivators from the Black Mist Palace for a period of time, he knew that the atmosphere among the Black Mist Palace disciples was extremely harmonious under Zheng Bin’s leadership.
Zheng Bin himself wasn’t a stingy person. If he was, he wouldn’t have satisfied Nie Tian’s request for a large amount of food to eat.
“Yup. Although I’ve never gotten in touch with him in the past, I’ve heard that his reputation isn’t bad.” Pan Tao also laughed. “Only, he clearly feels contempt towards us for leaving the big group, even though he can accept it.”
“It doesn’t matter. As long as we can find things to eat and prevent everyone from starving, it’ll count as us having repaid his kindness.” Once he said this, Nie Tian gently closed his eyes and released his mental awareness, searching the surrounding area for signs of life.
Pan Tao knew about his bizarre ability and didn’t disturb him anymore, after seeing him shut his eyes.
After a while, Nie Tian shook his head and said, “There aren’t any living beings nearby. Let’s switch to another location.”
“Alright.”
The two people roamed about in the surroundings. From time to time, Nie Tian would use his mental awareness to scan for fluctuations of life.
Unfortunately, there seemed to be no spirit beasts moving about near the exit of the Green Illusion Realm.
He walked around in a circle, and searched for signs of life god-knows how many times, but he didn’t find anything.
He tried another time. When Nie Tian shut his eyes to spread out his awareness, he suddenly sensed an abnormal undulation of Qi and Blood in the deepest parts of the earth.
His expression turned to one of shock. He thought that there was a creature similar to the Earth Lizard, that was hiding in the deepest parts of the earth. He hastily gathered his consciousness, and sent it underground to look for it.
From his awareness, he suddenly found that there were many river-like blood strings, that were slowly moving through the deepest parts of the earth.
Those blood strings made him feel a faint familiarity...
“It’s coming from the Blood and Qi of Yu Tong’s body!”
After a long time, his expression changed, and he concentrated even more to sense the movements in the earth.
He clearly felt that those blood strings, that contained Blood and Qi within them, yet had no spirit aura to it, were currently slowly moving towards the place where Zheng Bin and the others were.
Those strands of Blood and Qi interweaved together, forming a delicate and enormous earth web that seemed to be able to bind all life.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and glanced at his surroundings. He carefully told Pan Tao, “Something’s wrong! There are many blood strings in the deepest parts of the earth! I’m certain that those blood strings are released from the body of the Blood Sect’s witch Yu Tong! It’s heading in the direction of Zheng Bin and the others!”
“Strands of blood strings coming from the witch, Yu Tong?” Pan Tao was startled, and he furrowed his brows to ponder over it.
After several seconds, Pan Tao loudly exclaimed. An alarmed look filled his face. “Earth Web! It’s the Blood Sect’s forbidden art, Earth Web! The people from the Ghost Sect and Blood sect should already be near us! They’re borrowing the power of the Blood Searching Compass and have already locked on to us! Shit, Nie Tian, we have to rush back!”
“What’s this Earth Web?” Nie Tian was astounded.
“There’s no time to explain in detail, but we have to quickly return now!” Pan Tao was turning impatient.
Nie Tian was also affected by Pan Tao’s nervousness, and said: “Don’t say that I sensed the abnormality in the earth. Pan Tao, please help me keep it a secret.”
“I understand.” Pan Tao nodded.
Before entering the Green Illusion Realm, he had already guessed that there was another motive behind An Shiyi arranging them to go to the Green Illusion Realm with a mysterious child from the Nie Family.
An Ying had hinted several times for him and Zheng Rui to go and probe Nie Tian, and inform her of the results.
But now, in his heart, he had already viewed Nie Tian as a necessary battle companion. To not lose Nie Tian as a companion, he knew what he had to do.
Quickly, the two people, that had left for a short while, returned to the area where everyone was gathered.
