Seeing the Bai Family group ahead come to a halt, Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai exchanged glances, the anticipation in their expressions grew stronger.
“Third Grandfather, do you think Bai Ying noticed something?”
Luo Yuebai asked with some expectations.
Shen Yifeng shook his head. “That old woman managed to reach the Soul Formation stage, so she’s at least a prominent figure in the Qingzhou region.
It’s not surprising that she has some special methods. Let’s just watch for now. If they can really find and open that strange place, wouldn’t it be better for us?”
He paused, then added, “Besides, I feel that if that strange place truly exists, it should be around this location.”
Shen Yifeng had personally explored this canyon many times.
He knew that after this section, they would soon exit the canyon from the other side.
This was the most central part.
The two still stood ten zhang away and watched silently.Suddenly, a brilliant blue light erupted from the dragon-headed cane in Bai Ying’s hand.
The blue light instantly illuminated the thick fog ahead.
Bai Ying’s expression was solemn, but the fog remained largely unchanged.
Behind her, Bai Susu and other people from the Bai family held their breath and concentrated.
They dared not make a sound while Bai Ying was operating, fearing they might disturb her.
The blue light from the dragon-headed cane continued for several dozen breaths before extinguishing itself.
The space in front remained unchanged.
“Elder, what…what’s going on?”
Another Nascent Soul cultivator from the Bai Family asked Bai Ying.
He wanted to remind Bai Ying that their mission was still to pursue Jiuchi. They had already wasted too much time in Linjiang City.
In fact, many Bai Family cultivators felt that there was no need to waste any more time in this canyon.
After all, they didn’t believe that a desolate place like Linjiang City held anything more special than the lost Water Spirit Pearl of the Bai Family.
“Something is amiss here,” Bai Ying said again, her voice grave.
She then gathered her Soul Formation stage aura to its peak, channeling all her power into the dragon-headed cane.
“Use all your strength,” she commanded, turning to the numerous Bai Family disciples.
After a moment of thought, Bai Ying flicked her storage ring, and a black array disk materialized in mid-air.
She imprinted her spiritual mark on it, and the disk unleashed a faint black light.
All the Bai Family members were enveloped within its range.
“This is an Invocations Array. Gather your strength into the disk,” she explained.
Bai Ying spoke again.
The others didn’t hesitate.
Instantly, they channeled their power, converging it all into the array disk above their heads.
“Third Grandpa, what are they doing?”
Luo Yuebai, noticing the situation, looked at Shen Yifeng with curiosity.
The latter’s eyes gleamed with anticipation. “That old woman must have sensed something. But she can’t figure out how to open it, so she’s resorting to brute force. But with her current strength, she can’t do it alone, she needs the help of the Bai Family.”
Luo Yuebai’s eyes lit up again at Shen Yifeng’s words.
Meanwhile, as the two watched, Bai Ying had already used the Invocations Array to channel the combined power of the Bai Family into her own body.
Her aura surged once more. The blue light on her dragon-headed cane flared up again, even brighter than before.
It instantly bathed the fog.
In the stunned gazes of everyone, ripples began to spread through the mist.
A faint barrier had indeed appeared.
Seeing this, Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai couldn’t sit still any longer.
They walked forward.
“It really appeared! That’s the strange place he spoke of, he must be inside, I have a feeling,” Luo Yuebai excitedly said to Shen Yifeng.
At that moment, Bai Ying naturally saw the excitement on Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai’s faces.
Her expression darkened. “Shen Yifeng, this was discovered by my Bai Family first. Whatever is inside belongs to my Bai Family!”
Bai Ying knew that a barrier she couldn’t open with her Soul Formation stage strength couldn’t be simple.
It was most likely the den of a cultivator at the Divine Intent Realm or above.
This canyon seemed to be quite old, it was very likely a relic.
Anything left behind by a Divine Intent Realm or higher cultivator would be a treasure for them.
Since Bai Ying had discovered it, she wouldn’t allow the Evil Moon Sect to get a share of the pie.
As her words fell, the two Nascent Soul cultivators behind her surged with power, instantly locking onto Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai.
They had been eager to attack the two earlier, and now that Bai Ying had taken a stand, they were even more enthusiastic.
However, seeing the Bai Family’s reaction, Shen Yifeng couldn’t help but smirk.
“This Clear Wind Mountain is within the territory of my Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch.
This place has long been marked by my Evil Moon Sect. The Bai Family wants to claim it now? I’m afraid that’s not how it works.
Or are you Bai Family looking for a fight with my Evil Moon Sect? Then I will gladly accept the challenge.”
Shen Yifeng spoke with a smile, but the murderous aura of the Killing Sword materialized before him once again.
He wasn’t afraid of Bai Ying’s Soul Formation stage strength at all.
Although Shen Yifeng was only at the Nascent Soul mid-stage, his aura was so powerful that it made the Bai Family members feel suffocated.
Seeing the Killing Sword hovering before her, Bai Ying’s expression changed again.
She ultimately lacked the courage to face Shen Yifeng in a one-on-one duel.
“Does the Evil Moon Sect really want to be so domineering?”
Bai Ying asked again, her voice laced with resentment.
“Senior Bai, calling us domineering is a bit much.
If anyone is domineering, it’s the Bai Family. I’ve already said that this is my Evil Moon Sect’s territory.
This canyon and this strange place are all secret bases of my Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch.
Your Bai Family barged in uninvited, and I haven’t said anything, which was already giving you face.
If Senior Bai still insists on this, then there’s only one path left: war.”
Shen Yifeng’s tone remained calm, but the word “war” was enough to make Bai Ying hesitate.
She knew that if they truly fought Shen Yifeng here, she might emerge unscathed, but the many young disciples of the Bai Family would likely perish.
Bai Ying sneered again. “You claim this place belongs to your Evil Moon Sect, yet you don’t even have the ability to open it. Shen Yifeng, you’re truly laughable.”
Shen Yifeng raised an eyebrow. “Then let’s have a fight.”
