"Is the problem with the Divine Sect? You’ll be the test subject."

Jiang Feng manipulated the Qinglong Cauldron to expand in the wind, turning into the size of an incense burner in front of a temple, and he sat inside the Qinglong Cauldron, his body surrounded by golden light.

"Go!"

Jiang Feng maneuvered the Qinglong Cauldron to fly eastward.

Under the protection of the Qinglong Cauldron, he boldly ventured into the depths of the forest, no longer loitering on the outskirts to prevent being seen by people entering for training, which might lead to a leak to the Divine Sect.

"Saintess, the talisman is dead."

Liu Chen shouted.

The golden talisman in his hand suddenly dimmed.

The Saintess waved her hand casually.

The talisman automatically flew into her hand.

The two had traversed Xiangyang Kingdom from Fire God City, entering the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and under the guidance of the golden talisman, they were drawing closer to Jiang Feng.

Seeing that only a day’s journey was left to catch Jiang Feng, unexpectedly, the golden talisman suddenly dimmed.

The two lost their guidance.

"Hmph!"

The Saintess snorted, and infused a Dharma Seal into the golden talisman.

The golden talisman flickered, its light gradually growing stronger, seemingly successfully locking onto Jiang Feng’s location, but then it dimmed again.

"He’s actually discovered it."

The Saintess found it unbelievable.

This golden talisman was an invaluable Life-taking Talisman; it was crafted by the Divine Sect mage, who calculated based on the information provided by Liu Chen despite his vitality being injured, injecting the relevant information into this Life-taking Talisman, which Liu Chen personally delivered to her in Fire God City.

The two followed the Life-taking Talisman and learned that Jiang Feng had entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains, hence they set out overnight, tracking him all the way here.

Unexpectedly.

Seeing that the distance to Jiang Feng grew closer.

The Life-taking Talisman suddenly lost its effectiveness.

"Elder Yang’s Celestial Calculation Divine Skill, how could it be detected?"

Liu Chen was puzzled.

The Second Prince, being the Divine Sect Saint Heir, was deemed dead at Jiang Feng’s hands, which greatly angered the Divine Sect. The day the sect reopened, they swore to do everything to find Jiang Feng and avenge the Second Prince.

The Celestial Calculation Divine Skill is a profound and rare magic; those who cultivate this method must have a destiny lacking, weakened five elements, and belong to the unfortunate to practice.

It’s said that this magic violates the laws of the Celestial Dao.

Thus, practitioners must endure backlash, and each time they employ it, it must be used in conjunction with a talisman to successfully lock onto a target. Due to the high cost, the Divine Sect wouldn’t allow Elder Yang to use the Celestial Calculation Divine Skill to track enemies unless absolutely necessary.

Usually, it’s used to calculate the sect’s fortunes.

If it weren’t for the death of the Divine Sect Saint Heir, a significant figure to the Divine Sect, Jiang Feng wouldn’t receive such treatment.

"You mentioned previously that he owns a magical artifact, a Black Cauldron, which he might have used to sense the problem."

The Saintess speculated.

She knew Elder Yang’s Celestial Calculation Divine Skill; even if she were locked onto, it would be hard to detect. What kind of Black Cauldron could crack the Celestial Calculation Divine Skill?

Her interest was piqued.

"Yes, last time he escaped from me thanks to that Black Cauldron."

Liu Chen gritted his teeth.

He almost got crushed by the Qinglong Cauldron.

"He can’t escape; judging by his trajectory these past few days, he’s been running east. We’ll find him sooner or later."

The Saintess was confident.

"Let’s go!"

She maneuvered the flying sword, picking up Liu Chen, transforming into a white light above the forest.

Liu Chen stood behind the Saintess, feeling the sharp wind around him. He could never achieve this speed alone, but standing on the same flying sword with the Saintess, being flown by her, he was overjoyed inside.

One day later.

The Saintess brought Liu Chen to the verdant lakeside where Jiang Feng previously rested.

Following the prior guidance of the Life-taking Talisman, the Saintess could roughly deduce that Jiang Feng discovered he was being tracked in this area.

"See if it’s him."

The Saintess said.

"It is!"

Liu Chen nodded.

"Heaven and Earth, Celestial Eye, Open!"

He performed the Celestial Eye skill.

The Divine Sect Celestial Eye Skill not only allowed one to see a person’s true appearance but also to find traces of their breath in places they lingered.

Of course, this has time restrictions and is limited by strength; the stronger the cultivator, the harder it is for Liu Chen’s Celestial Eye skill to capture their breath.

He glanced around the lakeside.

His expression was a bit awkward.

"It’s okay if you can’t find anything; perhaps he just passed by briefly."

The Saintess noticed Liu Chen’s embarrassment, feeling a bit dissatisfied yet refrained from rebuking him.

"Apologies for my incompetence."

Liu Chen knew the problem was with him.

"If he knows he was tracked, he wouldn’t linger on the outskirts, he would definitely run deeper."

The Saintess deduced.

What Jiang Feng could think of, she could too, and even more accurately.

"Let’s go!"

Immediately she continued to fly eastward with Liu Chen for another day and night.

Jiang Feng sat inside the Qinglong Cauldron.

He controlled the Qinglong Cauldron to fly, this speed was no match for the Great Perfection Level Three-legged Body Technique, but since the Qinglong Cauldron’s level wasn’t low, the speed was fairly fast, at least Liu Chen couldn’t catch up.

After flying close to the ground for two days consecutively deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Jiang Feng arrived at the entrance of a valley, where at noon, miasma was thriving within the valley, and Jiang Feng’s eyes couldn’t penetrate it, so he had to use his spiritual sense.

Extending along the valley, Jiang Feng observed that the environment inside was seemingly no different from outside, merely obscured by miasma, concealing the forest scenery within.

Under his spiritual sense cover, the trees within the valley were more lush and robust than outside, with a group of wild monkeys traversing through the miasma.

His spiritual sense continued to extend inward. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
