Outer Heaven Beast Swamp.
Chunyangzi began to gather his subordinates and assess the casualties, while the Seeking-Truth Lineage cultivators made an extremely decisive retreat, leaving no room for them to be tracked.
Feng Yuan’s state of mind was somewhat chaotic, or simply frustrated. From the Zhou Family’s Chaotic Immortal City, nothing had gone smoothly for him.
Now that they had arrived at the Outer Heaven Beast Swamp and had finally encountered the Seeking-Truth Remnants, his side had the upper hand, but in the end, it all came to nothing, a wasted effort.
Chunyangzi noticed Feng Yuan’s emotional imbalance and quickly advised, “Feng Yuan, don’t be too concerned. Our encounter with the Seeking Truth Remnants this time has been quite unexpected.
At the very least, we have a clear understanding of the Seeking Truth Remnants’ strength in the Beast Swamp. Next time, we won’t make the same mistake.
This time, I was a bit careless. If I had gone all-out from the beginning, they wouldn’t have had time to react.
So, the next time we meet them, it will be when they surrender. I can guarantee you this.”
“Master, you don’t need to worry about me. I’m fine. So, what should we do next? Shall we continue tracking the Seeking Truth Remnants?”
Feng Yuan secretly took a deep breath to calm his emotions, then began to ask Chunyangzi about their next plan.
He was still somewhat unwilling to accept the outcome, considering the cloaked mysterious man’s cultivation level as being within the Soul Emergence Realm. However, they had caught them off guard and led to such a sloppy conclusion.
As Chunyangzi said, as long as they didn’t make the same mistake, the Seeking Truth Remnants would have no escape.
After a short while, Chunyangzi shook his head. “For the time being, there is no need to chase the Seeking Truth Remnants. Otherwise, we will be led around by the nose. It’s better to continue searching for the Ancient Desolate Springs.
Just like this time, it was due to finding traces of the Ancient Desolate Springs that we encountered the Seeking Truth Remnants.
So as long as we find the Ancient Desolate Springs, we’ll definitely meet the Seeking Truth Remnants again.
On the other hand, if we can’t put our discontent aside and keep chasing the Seeking Truth Remnants, we may fall into their schemes and suffer losses.”
“Master is right. The fault lies with my impatience.”
By this time, Feng Yuan realized that he had been too hasty. Kaiyuan Child had already finished cleaning up the battlefield, but they hadn’t found any useful clues.
With that being the case, Chunyangzi didn’t waste any more time. After the whole team had regrouped, they chose a direction and continued to move forward.
However, for some reason, Chunyangzi’s original confidence in this journey had unknowingly been clouded with a shadow.
Would they really be able to accomplish their mission and leave the Beast Swamp safely? He glanced at Feng Yuan and Kai Yuan Child with the corner of his eye and couldn’t help but let out a quiet sigh.
Disciple, to become a gifted child in the Era of Great Contention, you must withstand such hardships. As there is no way forward, carve out a path of your own.
Hang in there!
…
On the other side,
After breaking through and scattering in all directions, the Seeking-Truth Lineage cultivators seemed to have an understanding with each other, with no one escaping in the same direction.
Fortunately, after some time, they realized they were not being tracked, so they began to choose locations according to a prearranged signal, waiting to regroup.
After Feng Qingzi escaped from the battlefield, his first priority was not to pay attention to his subordinates’ condition, but to search for the mysterious cloaked man who had appeared just moments before.
Today, if not for the sudden appearance of the other party, they might have been in real danger. Now, their outcome was nothing short of perfect.
He naturally wanted to thank the other party, but after breaking through, the other party had disappeared from his sight and couldn’t be found no matter what.
Feng Qingzi was puzzled as to how the other party could hide so well, and he couldn’t help but wish he was in the Immortal Dynasty World right now.
Beast Swamp suppressed cultivators’ Divine Sense perception, otherwise, it would be impossible for him not to find someone at his cultivation realm using the Divine Sense detection.
After several unsuccessful attempts to find the cloaked mysterious man, Feng Qingzi finally had to give up. It seemed that the other party really didn’t want to meet him, so it could only be a regret.
However, he knew that the other party was definitely a friend rather than an enemy, otherwise, the Seeking-Truth Lineage wouldn’t have escaped today, at least not without shedding some skin.
Moreover, the Immortal City cultivators wouldn’t have put on such an act. They could have wiped them all out if that was the case – a classic case of gaining a sesame seed but losing a watermelon.
At this time, Feng Qingzi stood in place, and after confirming that he could not find the cloaked mysterious man, he began to gather everyone according to the signals left by the Seeking-Truth Lineage.
Not far away from Feng Qingzi, Liang Sheng watched his every move, his eyes half-closed. This was something only he could do, hidden under the data panel’s concealment, with no one able to perceive him.
Today, he was forced to take action, and by now, both the Immortal City and Seeking-Truth Lineage cultivators were on guard.
But Liang Sheng had no regrets about this, because the Ancient Desolate Springs were his first goal in the Outer Heaven Beast Swamp.
After that was accomplished, he could then deal with the Immortal Dynasty cultivators. Today’s encounter was just a small taste of what was to come.
Although he had only crossed swords with Feng Yuan and the others, he was certain that neither Chunyangzi nor Feng Qingzi could challenge him.
So, as long as there were no accidents, within the Beast Swamp, he was the ruler, and they could not overcome him.
That’s why Liang Sheng anxiously hoped for both parties to find the Ancient Desolate Springs as soon as possible. It didn’t matter if it was the Seeking-Truth Lineage or the Immortal City cultivators – as long as they found the Ancient Desolate Springs, it would be enough.
