C2412 Mysterious Village
Lin Zhan asked about the seal. He obviously wanted to know what was going on over there.
After knowing the reason, Lin Zhan said to Jiang Fann, "Why didn't you bring out the Formation Spirit and his battle? That guy has your people. We can completely set up a seal here in the Upper Nine Heavens and lure him here. At that time, we can seal him again with the formation. Then, we won't have to worry about what happens after that."
Jiang Fann said, "I also want to do that, but for some reason, the Formation Spirit doesn't want to leave the small world. But it doesn't matter. Maybe one day, I will have enough strength to deal with that guy. It's a pity that the Dark Demon promised me to take me to another forbidden area. I don't know what that place is, but Xiao Miao knows the exact location. I'll go and check it out myself."
Xiao Miao appeared next to Jiang Fann. There were no other cultivators around. Jiang Fann didn't want to waste time, so he asked Xiao Miao to lead the way.
After confirming the direction, Xiao Miao led Jiang Fann to the northwest. While flying, she felt the situation down below.
Not long after, Xiao Miao felt the auras of a few teams. Some of them were here for the Dark Demon, and some were here for the evil cultivators. Overall, this place was no longer peaceful.
Jiang Fann asked Xiao Mo, "Did you sense the aura of other cultivators when you chased after the demon? There should be a Reincarnation Realm cultivator outside."
Xiao Mo nodded. "I did, but that guy ran away very quickly. He was no match for the demon. Before I showed up, he had already run away with his men. Although I can't be sure where they went, I can be sure that they should be hiding nearby after leaving the cave. They should know the direction the demon left, but they haven't shown up yet. Obviously, no one wants to offend them."
"How far is the place you recommended me from?"
"With the current speed of flight, we should be able to reach it in about two hours. But before we get close to the demon, we have to return to the ground to avoid being targeted."
Along the way, Jiang Fann realized that the evil cultivators in the forest had been greatly reduced. It was unknown whether they had been killed or dispersed.
"It seems that the power that the Demon Netherworld gathered over the years has been reduced."
Xiao Mo said, "They are just a bunch of evil cultivators. Don't you think they will submit to someone? Unless that person controls their life and death."
As she spoke, Xiao Mo brought Jiang Fann down into the forest below.
"We're almost there."
When they arrived on the ground, Xiao Mo looked around carefully. A thin layer of mist covered the surrounding forest. There was some hallucinatory power, but this little poison had almost no effect on Jiang Fann.
Without wasting any time, Jiang Fann carefully sensed the mist and confirmed its properties. He then said, "Tell me about that place and I'll go there myself. It's better if you don't show yourself."
"As long as you continue walking in this direction, the mist will become heavier and heavier. The main thing is to ensure that you are in the right direction. Soon, you will enter another forest. There used to be some cultivators living there, but they were not strong. The strongest one was only at the Mortal Separating Stage. They guarded the entrance to a certain world. When I tried to go there, it was definitely much stronger than the one you went to before."
Jiang Fann calmed himself down and then took back Little Miao.
He followed the direction that Little Miao had pointed out and approached it. He suppressed his aura and carefully sensed the changes in the aura around him.
At the beginning, he could occasionally hear the birds chirping, but the surroundings became quieter as he walked. It was as if he had entered a special area.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed above him. Jiang Fann quickly stopped and hid beside a nearby tree. Then, he looked up, wanting to see what it was.
However, the black shadow quickly disappeared in front of him. Its speed was shockingly fast, as if it was the same as when Little Miao and the others were chasing it.
"Reincarnation Stage?"
After confirming that there were no other cultivators around, Jiang Fann continued to move forward. After a few minutes, he saw a row of figures rushing through the fog.
He hid behind a tree once again and released his Spiritual Sense to sense the aura of the group of people. Then he discovered that these people all had the cultivation of the Mortal Separating Stage. The leader had even reached the peak of the Mortal Separating Stage. Unfortunately, the fog was very dense, so he could not see the faces of these people clearly.
From the direction they came from, he could basically determine that they were his destination.
At this time, Xiao Budian opened his mouth and said, "In my opinion, this place might have already been explored by someone. The black shadow that passed by just now was most likely the expert who went over there."
"Since we are already here, we must definitely go and take a look at the situation. Otherwise, it would be a bit unwilling to leave just like this."
After the group of people had left, Jiang Fann continued on his way and headed in that direction.
The surrounding fog became thicker and thicker. Jiang Fann had no choice but to take a pill to suppress the effects of the fog on him. He carefully sensed the intensity of the fog and was basically certain that ordinary cultivators of the Dao Understanding Stage would not be able to pass through the fog here.
Very quickly, the Spiritual Strength aura around him changed greatly. There was no change in the first step, but the second step was as if he had stepped into another world, which was very strange.
Jiang Fann said, "I really didn't expect that there would be an invisible barrier in this forest. Otherwise, there would definitely not be such a huge change in the environment."
He turned around and used the Divine Eye to look behind him. Sure enough, he saw a thin barrier that isolated the Spiritual Strength on both sides. Furthermore, the barrier did not hinder the cultivators from the outside, so Jiang Fann could easily pass through it.
"It seems that this was also set up. I wonder which great figure left this place."
The surroundings were still the forest, but the Spiritual Strength was already very active. Jiang Fann continued to move forward and found that the surrounding fog was getting thinner and thinner, and he could already see very far ahead.
The Divine Eye was still maintained, and soon, Jiang Fann saw a village sitting in the dense forest in front of him. However, there were no cultivators nearby, so he did not know where those guys were at this moment.
He continued to move forward, and suddenly, Jiang Fann felt a Spiritual Sense sweep past him. It even paused on his body for a moment. Jiang Fann knew what this meant, so he quickly set up a concealment array formation nearby and entered it.
Soon, a figure appeared from the village in the distance and quickly approached. It was a middle-aged man with an axe in his hand. He frowned and looked around with a puzzled expression.
This guy's cultivation had reached the third level of the Mortal Separating Stage, and he had come very quickly. He was clearly sure that he had locked onto a special aura just now.
Unfortunately, with the help of the concealment array formation, this guy couldn't find Jiang Fann's figure even after carefully observing his surroundings.
Another figure flew out from the village. His cultivation level was similar to the middle-aged man, and he also had a vigilant expression on his face.
"Why did you suddenly come out while you were cultivating?"
The middle-aged man who had arrived first said seriously, "I felt a special aura, which is completely different from our aura. It is very likely that there are outsiders here."
"What's so strange about that? The Patriarch has invited a few outsiders to this place in the past few days. After all, the event is about to begin. It's not strange for outsiders to appear here. As long as they don't offend the village, we just let them be."
"That is the Land of Inheritance that the Patriarch left for us. I don't understand why the Patriarch invited outsiders to this place. Could it be that he thinks that we have a big chance of obtaining it?"
"The Patriarch has his own thoughts. Besides, without the presence of those great figures, the Land of Inheritance would have already been taken over."
The middle-aged man was a little unconvinced when he heard this.
"Those outsiders could have clearly bypassed this place and come to this place. They definitely didn't have any good intentions. I have to find them and teach them a lesson."
"That's enough. You don't have to waste your time here. Prepare yourself well. Entering the Land of Inheritance and obtaining the inheritance is the way to go. Everything else is not important. The elders of the village will take care of the matters of the village. If someone really dares to barge into the village, even if he has a hundred lives, it would still be useless."
He said it loudly, obviously not doubting that the other party had misperceived him. Instead, he was sure that there should be hidden cultivators around, and this was also for Jiang Fann to hear.
As for Jiang Fann, who was hiding in the concealment array, he heard their conversation clearly and roughly understood the current situation.
Back then, Xiao Mo had relied on her powerful combat strength to cross this village, so no one dared to stop her. Jiang Fann himself obviously did not have the ability.
However, according to what the person said, they could bypass the village and arrive at a certain Land of Inheritance, so she would not consider crossing the village at all.
When the two of them returned to the village, Xiao Budian opened his mouth and said, "What kind of place is this? Two people who just jumped out of nowhere have actually reached the Mortal Separating Stage, and the Land of Inheritance that they mentioned. If I'm not wrong, it shouldn't be prepared for junior's training. Those two people just now are not young."
Jiang Fann said calmly, "We'll know when we get there."
He was not in a hurry to leave, but waited for the two of them to return to the village.
Only when the two of them returned to their respective residences did Jiang Fann decide to leave the array and think of a way to bypass the village.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a powerful Spiritual Strength appear behind him. It was an old man at the Reincarnation Stage, and his appearance was very similar to the two people in the village.
The old man was very strong and sturdy, and his face was resolute. He carried a demonic beast and rushed straight towards the village.
When the old man passed by Jiang Fann's concealment formation, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. A trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"Eh? Why is there someone hiding here?"
He looked towards Jiang Fann's direction, clearly believing in his own senses.
Inside the concealment formation, Jiang Fann was also greatly shocked, because this race's sensitive senses had already surpassed his understanding of the other races. The guy in the village just now was the same, and the old man was the same.
