A moment later, Han Yi left Jiu Long Shop, and in his storage bag, there were more elixir refining materials, as well as various miscellaneous items like Spirit Sand and Spiritual Talismans.
As he walked out of Jiu Long Shop, Han Yi didn’t look back, his expression unchanged and his pace and speed remaining the same as before, not showing any urgency.
On his way out of the market without any trouble, Han Yi walked for a while before he took off his mask.
After removing the mask, he didn’t deliberately look back, but instead calmly descended from the Red Sun Peak and returned to the Azure Dragon Peak. When he set foot in his own courtyard and activated the formation, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he had appeared composed along the way, his heart was already on edge, fearing that Foundation Establishment Elders would suddenly descend from the sky and take him away.
“It looks like 1 was overthinking.”
“It doesn’t matter, it’s better to be prepared.”
“I wonder if those three Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators will submit the things 1 wrote on the paper?”
“Forget it, let’s just leave it at that. I’ve done everything I could, and if it doesn’t serve as a warning, then it’s just fate.”
Han Yi went into meditation to cultivate, but he was a bit restless, so he simply stopped cultivating and walked to the backyard to practice Sword Control Skill.
After advancing to the Qi Refinement seventh layer, he needed to change his cultivation technique, turning from the basic Fire Profound Skill to a higher-level technique. He hadn’t thought about this aspect for the time being, and since he was unable to focus on cultivation, he practiced Sword Control Skill.
Next.
His plan was to progress his realm and various skills simultaneously, using time to accumulate experience and achieving long-term progress through practice.
On the other side.
Two hours ago, when Han Yi’s thrown dagger passed through the central tower of the Red Sun Fang, a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged in the tower opened his eyes instantly and grabbed the dagger with a swift move.
“Huh?”
On the other side, another elderly cultivator guarding the tower, released a powerful aura and shouted loudly, “Who dares provoke Red Sun Fang?”
Before his voice fell, he had already appeared next to the middle-aged man, only to see the latter holding an ordinary dagger in one hand and an unremarkable Spiritual Talisman in the other, his expression slightly solemn. “Elder Lu, what is this?”
The middle-aged cultivator named Lu Anping did not answer, but gripped the Spiritual Talisman tightly, and with a sweep, rushed out of the tower, his momentum soaring into the sky. However, at this moment, people passing by the tower were shocked, and in order to avoid misunderstandings, they all retreated slightly, without panicking and fleeing.
The elderly cultivator and the third Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator stationed here followed closely, fully releasing their auras and scanning their surroundings.
“Should we use the Patrol Immortal Mirror to catch the person who just barged in?” Seeing the solemn expression on the middle-aged man’s face, the elderly cultivator suggested.’
The Patrol Immortal Mirror is a top-grade magical artifact placed in the tower, capable of monitoring the entire market while recording sound and images.
Lu Anping, the middle-aged cultivator, shook his head.
“No need, since this person acted so covertly, they are obviously trying to hide their identity. Besides, the most critical thing at the moment is the information he sent in.”
Lu Anping returned to the tower, retracted his aura, and then handed the Spiritual Talisman in his hand to the two fellow Elders.
At the same time, his expression was slightly solemn, his divine sense focused entirely on the two fellow Elders beside him.
What slightly relieved him was that when the two fellow Elders who were on duty this month saw the writing on the Spiritual Talisman, their expressions immediately became as solemn as his.
If any of them had shown hesitation or opposition just now, Lu Anping would have definitely considered them as suspects.
“This matter needs to be reported to the Sect Master.”
“Indeed.”
“The three of us should go.”
“As it should be.”
“Let’s go.”
The trio left the tower in silence and headed straight towards Xuandan Peak.
Because on the Spiritual Talisman, it was written how Han Yi discovered the spy from the Blood God Sect, and how he speculated that there might be Foundation Establishment Elders in the sect, who were also related to the Blood God Sect.
This already touched on the survival bottom line of the Xuandan Sect.
Whether it was true or false, it was not to be taken lightly.
If it turns out that this matter is fake and intentionally framed, then naturally, it would be the best, just a false alarm. They only need to activate the Patrol Immortal Mirror to catch the troublemaker, treating it as a farce.
But if what is written on it is true, then the problem can be big or small.
Half an hour after the three elders went to Xuandan Peak, three Golden Core Stage cultivators emerged from the depths of Xuandan Peak. One went straight to Vermilion Bird Peak, and the other two went towards Azure Dragon Peak.
At the same time, on Xuandan Peak, a thick spirit light shot into the sky and spread out in all directions.
It was a formation.
It was a formation launched by the core hub of Xuandan Peak, covering the entire Xuandan Sect.
Fourth-stage Array Method, Zhou Heavenly Xuangang Array.
Next, the nine inner peaks, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Zhu Rong, Golden Court, Red Sun, Overturning Sea, Sword Core, all flashed with protective peak formations at the same time.
More than a hundred outer peaks also had their Spirit Lights floating, competing to show off.
While cultivating his Sword Control Skill in the backyard, Han Yi suddenly felt something and raised his head to look in the direction of Azure Dragon Palace. Then, he saw an old man with white eyebrows suddenly appear in the void above the Azure Dragon Palace, sitting cross-legged. In his hand, he was holding onto the starlight that covered the Azure Dragon Peak.
Han Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
“Such a large formation?”
“Was it triggered by the thing 1 submitted just now?”
Han Yi wasn’t sure.
What surprised him was that this massive formation lasted less than a quarter of an hour before all the inner and outer peak formations returned to their original states and calmed down.
“It’s over so quickly?”
Han Yi muttered a sentence and didn’t bother anymore, turning his head to continue cultivating.
It’s not that he didn’t care, but he knew that worrying blindly would be useless; it’s better to cultivate.
Only with great power can one handle all the changes.
Three days later.
Han Yi left the courtyard and went to Red Sun Fang Market to inquire about the news first.
“I heard that there was an abnormal Spirit Vein in the Xuandan Mountain Range. The Sect Master and several Supreme Elders conducted a Spirit Vein detection together. It took them less than a quarter of an hour to complete the detection.”
“I also heard that the main Spirit Vein under the Xuandan Mountain Range is a fourth-stage peak, approaching the fifth-stage Spirit Vein. If there is really a problem, it would be a major disaster. No wonder many Supreme Elders are nervous.”
He Fangwei mentioned it. Han Yi didn’t ask further, but he was somewhat incredulous in his heart. Was it just a coincidence that the Spirit Vein anomaly happened when he reported the Blood God Sect traitor? It was too much of a coincidence.
But he couldn’t ask more questions to avoid suspicion. After symbolically buying some talisman paper and raw materials for making talismans, he left the Nine Dragons Shop, descended Red Sun Peak, and went up Azure Dragon Peak towards his courtyard.
Just before he reached the courtyard, Han Yi suddenly felt a slight shock because, at this moment, a middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back at the entrance of his courtyard.
What stunned Han Yi was the identity of this middle-aged man.
He quickly walked up to him and bowed with his hands clasped together: “Disciple Han Yi, greetings to the Sect Master.”
That’s right; this person was Yuan Shun, the current Sect Master of the Xuandan Sect, whom Han Yi had seen twice across the air.
At this moment, Yuan Shun was just like an ordinary person, standing with his hands behind his back. There was no hint of his powerful Golden Core Stage cultivator aura. However, Han Yi’s inner tension had reached its limit.
This was the person with the highest status in the Xuandan Sect and the strongest in the sect, a Golden Core Peak Cultivator, one of the stabilizing pillars of the Xuandan Sect.
At this moment, he was standing right in front of his courtyard.
Han Yi’s thoughts raced through numerous ideas in just a short moment.
However, none of these thoughts involved fear.
That’s because he had no reason to be afraid. Since his transmigration, all his actions have followed the sect’s rules. When he stumbled upon the traitor, he tried to report it rather than conceal it.
He even thought the sect should give him an award or provide him with some Spirit Stones as a subsidy.
Seeing Han Yi pay his respects, Yuan Shun’s face had a smile: “Han Yi, no need to be nervous.”
“I just came here today to ask you about some things..”
