Supreme Mystery Sect.

Inside the grand hall.

“Sect Leader! Did you not complete the matter when you went there?”

Lu Qingshan shook his head, his face filled with a painful expression.

“I arrived there, searched several mountains, swept my divine sense across thousands of miles, but still couldn’t find the slightest trace of him!”

“I also found the blood-stained robe left by my apprentice, Xu Bai. He must have lost his life with almost certainty!”

“Then, I used the ancient mirror of our sect to trace back the past. I could not see anything from within a hundred miles around where my disciple fell. Everything traced back was a vast emptiness, indicating that the divine workings have been concealed!”

Chief Mu immediately felt his hands and feet go cold, he paused and said with disbelief, “How could this be? Even Xu Bai, who is listed on the Heavenly Ranking, had fallen there. Who exactly has such divine power?”

Suddenly, the grand hall was silent.

Several months ago.

Within the territory of the Supreme Mystery Sect, there was a place where several villages had disappeared overnight without a trace.

When this strange phenomenon was reported to the Shan Shi County, the County Honour sitting in the Shan Shi County realized that this was not the work of mortals.

Because there were no signs of struggle, and no blood was left behind.

The whole village, overnight, didn’t leave a single survivor.

He knew that he could not handle this matter himself, so he quickly reported it to the Supreme Mystery Sect.

Initially, the Deacon Hall didn’t take it very seriously, only sent it to the outer sect, asking the outer sect disciples to handle it.

However, several teams sent out were like stones sinking into the sea, no news returned at all, making them realize something was amiss.

So, they quickly rescinded the mission, sending the inner sect disciples instead.

Ultimately, two inner sect disciples were sent, both experts at the meridian breaking stage. One was at the sixth level and the other at the fifth level of the meridian breaking stage.

Yet, they too disappeared without a trace. Their respective life tokens shattered almost simultaneously.

All of this indicated the existence of a great danger there.

These two inner sect disciples must have met their end there.

This incident instantly alerted the Grand Elders and the Chiefs, even Lu Qingshan was alarmed.

In order to prevent further accidents, they decided to send the Fourth Elder.

However, when the Fourth Elder got there, he searched a number of mountain peaks, stayed for three days, but he didn’t find any clue and could only return to the sect.

Everyone originally thought that the great danger had passed and the issue would simply fade away. freewēbnoveℓ.com

However, a week after the Fourth Elder returned to the sect, new news came from there. Several more villages had their villagers disappear overnight.

They instantly knew that something big had happened.

When the Fourth Elder was there, who is at Divine Bridge Realm, nothing happened, but as soon as he left, the situation began to repeat itself.

This indicated that the culprit was either a demonic human or a member of the Demon Tribe.

Demonic humans love to use souls for refining tools, while the Demon Tribe favorite menu is human blood.

More importantly, the opponents must have a treasure that can hide their body and aura, hence even the Fourth Elder couldn’t find the culprit after such an intensive search.

Subsequently, after much deliberation among the elders, they decided to send Xu Bai to handle the matter.

Because Xu Bai had reached the fifth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.

He had understood two kinds of rule power, his combat strength was exceptionally terrifying, not inferior to most of the ordinary eighth level Spiritual Sea Realm strong ones.

Furthermore, he was carrying a small movement charm.

Based on previous assumptions, the culprit who caused all these incidents was afraid of the Fourth Elder and it indicated that the culprit was only equivalent to someone at the Spiritual Sea Realm.

Xu Bai, who seemed weak but was actually strong, was the perfect bait to lure the culprit out!

Yet, in the midst of everyone’s anxiety, the final news they received was the shattering of Xu Bai’s life token.

Upon hearing this news, Lu Qingshan was suddenly engulfed in a surge of anger, his eyes almost exploding.

Xu Bai was his disciple for over twenty years, gentle in nature, kind to people and deeply cherished by Lu Qingshan.

He even had plans to retire to the position of Elder and pass on the position of Sect Leader to Xu Bai as soon as Xu Bai reached the sixth or seventh level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

Now, seeing Xu Bai’s life token shattered signifying his death, how could he not be enraged.

Right after, without consulting anyone, he went alone to the place where Xu Bai’s life token had shattered.

After arriving there, he saw Xu Bai’s broken, blood-stained clothes, and the devastated battlefield.

All these showed that Xu Bai had found the culprit, but had lost the fight, ultimately losing his life.

Also, the small movement charm couldn’t save his life.

Lu Qingshan then began to search still more thoroughly, across several mountains, his divine sense sweeping over thousands of miles again and again.

However, even then, he did not perceive any unusual traces.

He knew therefore that he would not be able to avenge Xu Bai by himself.

The unknown existence has too strong of a hiding ability, far beyond his own scope.

And it might have already noticed his arrival, so no matter what means he used, he couldn’t find the unknown being.

At this moment, the grand hall plunged into a long silence.

The matter had become somewhat unsolvable.

When someone of the Divine Bridge Realm was sent, nothing unusual happened there.

But for anyone below the Divine Bridge Realm, even Xu Bai, they were no match for the unknown existence.

After a long while, Nie Xuan said, “Could Jiang Yuan solve this problem if he goes there?”

The Fourth Elder shook his head, “Difficult! You know of Xu Bai’s strength, he mastered two kinds of rule power and could fight against those on the eighth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm! But you also know of the result!”

Lu Qingshan slowly spoke, “I will find him and ask for his opinion!”

As his voice fell, his figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

“Ah!” An old man sighed deeply, “Xu Bai’s death has hit Uncle Nephew Lu quite hard!”
