The sudden jump from the soul level into the real world made Yu Ci a little uncomfortable. He leaned against the railing and blinked before he recovered. What caught his eye at this moment was a very familiar gentle and beautiful face.
"Uncle Gan?" Yu Ci quickly stood up, but there was no need to stand. Gan Shi really didn't care about this, and it was difficult for Yu Ci to treat this delicate and delicate woman with the same attitude as an elder.
"Excuse me, are you practicing?"
Gan Shizhen pursed her lips and smiled, but had no intention of sitting down. This time Yu Ci really couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and said with a smile: "I'm just wandering around."
In response to this, Yu Ci was also wondering why Gan Shizhen came to him. During this period, the female cultivator has been retreating in Danya's unique quiet room to stabilize her current state. Just out of politeness, she participated in the night banquet organized by Xuanyin Sect and Suixin Pavilion.
Yu Ci once heard He Qing say that this delicate and lovely uncle would accompany the sect to the Nine Heavens Outer Territory, where he would say goodbye and continue his practice in the lonely and boundless space until Return to Siming Sect. There is a special title here, called "Reading Ten Thousand Books and Traveling Thousands of Miles", which is a test for the Siming Sect to cultivate their top talents.
It is conceivable that after the female cultivator returns, her status in the Siming Sect will inevitably rise significantly and she will become one of the backbone figures of the sect in the next thousand years.
For this, Yu Ci admired, envied, and, of course, had endless yearning.
The two stood side by side, Yu Ci was a whole head taller than the female cultivator. If the two of them had met for the first time, Yu Ci would probably have only been able to see the female cultivator's silky hair - Gan Shi was really not used to raising her face to talk to people. However, at this time, based on the two people's experience of sharing adversity, the female cultivator raised her face very naturally and said softly:
"There is something unusual outside the city, what Aunt Qing means..."
"Abnormal? Is there something wrong with Monk Isin?"
Yu Ci knew that He Qing would not focus all her energy here. It would be reasonable for her to have one or more back-ups. Therefore, Yu Ci would not be surprised at all if results appear in other directions.
Unexpectedly, Gan Shizhen shook his head: "It was Aunt Qing's Fa Tian Jue Lao who sensed it... There are demons running around outside the city."
"Demon?"
This was really beyond Yu Ci's expectations, and it also puzzled him. He Qing was guarding this place. Ordinary monsters and ghosts could be killed with the flip of a palm, so why did he need to be notified specifically?
You know, after He Qing took over Cliff City, he sacrificed his most powerful magical weapon, the "Fa Tian Jue Lao". When this object is used to attack the enemy, it can extract the vitality of heaven and earth within a ten-mile radius, locking and killing the enemy. It is extremely powerful, and He Qing used its defensive method this time:
That golden ring can serve as the center of movement of the vitality of heaven and earth within a wide range. Under its control, the vitality of heaven and earth within a radius of dozens of cities is woven into a huge spider web. If certain specific targets encounter this "web", their existence will be immediately fed back to the center, and Triggering the powerful impact of "Fa Tian Jue Lao".
In a sense, this kind of magic weapon is equivalent to an enhanced version of the "Five Directions Psychic Talisman". It even has the effect of a bronze mirror that illuminates the gods. It can collect information from far away with the help of the flow and change of the vitality of the heaven and earth, but it does not compare with the gods. The map is detailed, but it integrates offense and defense, and uses the power of heaven and earth to launch a thunderous strike, which is far more domineering than the Illuminating God Map.
Yu Ci once asked He Qing about the sacrificial level of this magical weapon. The result left him speechless: Fa Tian Jue Lao was something that was personally sacrificed and refined by Patriarch Fang, the oldest of the Lichen Sect, and later given to He Qing. Its Earthly Evil Refining Number has reached seventy-two levels, and its Tiangang Refining Level has reached eighteen levels. This means that its Sacrificial Refining Level has reached an astonishing ninety levels, which is the level of the fifteenth heaven. It can be ranked in the Lichen Sect. The top ten high-grade magical instruments are also priceless treasures in the Tongxuan world.
Among the magical weapons that Yu Ci saw, only the "Big Hole Seven Changes and Five Directions True Shape Talisman" in Murong Qingyan's hand was barely able to reach the level of sacrifice after two calamities and several generations of hard work. It surpasses it, but in terms of actual combat, its power is far beyond it. With this magic weapon in hand, He Qing's combat power has already caught up with the real monks. It is not surprising that he could lock the real Yang Shen and force the opponent to explode and kill himself. What do those little monsters mean?
"The little monster, I would kill it with just a thought, but it has been delayed until now..."
Yu Ci scratched his head: "Where is the monster?"
************
Yu Ci reached his destination directly from the sky, and the person who brought him there was naturally Gan Shizhen.
He Qing seems to have made up his mind to let his niece help. As a powerful combatant second only to He Qing, Gan Shizhen has a gentle temperament and doesn't care about anything. With her here, it is much easier to arrange various matters. To put it bluntly, during the time when he and Gan Shizhen were in Tianrift Valley, Yu Ci felt that such a companion was really easy to use.
Looking down from a high altitude, the river in the southern outskirts of the cliff city is like a white chain, crossing the jungle, pouring down from the ten-mile slope, becoming a spectacular waterfall, with rapids and rapids, and merges into the Bahe River. The southern suburbs are probably the most complex environment surrounding Cliff City, with mountains, jungles, rivers and canyons all criss-crossing each other. In spring and summer, there are rich species and abundant spiritual energy. It is really a good place to go.
However, with the opening of the Purifying Water Altar and the construction of a temple in Nancheng, it almost became the back garden of the monks. There are many ordinary people who wander into it by mistake and never return. According to word of mouth among the residents of the city, this is even the place where the evil men of the Purifying Water Temple dumped their bodies after killing people. Perhaps because of the use of corpses as fertilizer, the jungle in the southern suburbs has become increasingly lush over the past few decades.
When Yu Ci arrived here, He Qingzheng was hanging alone in the air, standing with his hands behind his back, his eyes wandering in the jungle.
"Where is the monster?" This was Yu Ci's first words after arriving.
He Qing glanced at him: "Ignore where the demon is. How did you do what you promised?"
"Some news is waiting to be confirmed."
Yu Ci made a pun, and I don’t know how much He Qing could understand it. After that, he followed He Qing's example and scanned the jungle with his eyes to see if he could find any traces of the demon.
This answer was an understatement, and He Qing was naturally not satisfied. But now she has other demands, and she no longer demands perfection, but just points in the direction: "Underground, about twenty feet, there used to be demons living there, but they are no longer there."
Yu Ci asked curiously: "Escaped?"
He Qing did not answer immediately. In fact, the Fatian Absolute Prison was not a magical weapon specifically designed to detect targets, because she felt that the demon had arrived strangely. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, she did not immediately initiate a counterattack from the "Fatian Absolute Prison". She only roughly grasped the location and wanted to follow the clues. But the demon was more slippery than expected. Perhaps it was sensing something, and its traces became more and more secretive. Finally, half an hour ago, it completely disappeared.
"This demon is not comparable to those idiots who only know how to kill. It should have considerable reason or spiritual awareness, or both. If it is the latter, it is very likely to be a high-level demon from the Blood Hell Ghost Mansion. During the turmoil in the Sky Rift Valley, there were only a handful of monsters that the sect could capture and kill.
The female cultivator is still practical and does not taboo anything because of her mistakes. Moreover, she did make new discoveries:
"During the pursuit, I found that the demon had found two or three hiding places underground, hiding very deep. If Fa Tian Jue Lao controls the flow of vitality in such a subtle way, it might even be hidden from it. These hiding places , it is not a temporary development, but has existed for a long time... I have called the heads of various sects in the city to ask clearly."
Yu Ci understood this in her heart. At this time, He Qingying suspected that the demon was related to a certain force in the city, or even more specifically, to the water purification altar in Nancheng. Calling the heads of various sects for questioning may seem like a warning, but combined with the effect of the previous intrusions, it may have another miraculous effect.
Seeing that he was thoughtful, He Qing asked: "What do you think?"
Yu Ci didn't have any other ideas at first, but after He Qing asked, an idea suddenly popped up.
Isn’t this a good opportunity to clear up your image?
He took a breath, nodded and said: "He Xianchang has thought everything through, and the disciple has nothing to add. However, regarding the traces of demons, the disciple still wants to give it a try!"
As he spoke, he pinched the cool bronze mirror in his sleeve.

It will probably take this week to adjust. The network cable is still disconnected. Could it be that it has expired? The wireless network card is severely delayed...
