……

Bird City is empty.

It's still that boat.

It's just that at this time, a few streamers suddenly flew from several directions and landed on the ship, and it was the golden envoy who had cultivated to several realms at least at least the seventh order.

"Flowing Cloud Commander, this city, I checked the north and west, and I found no trace of the thief." It is clearly a man, but Yang Xi, whose face and demeanor and even temperament are very feminine, stepped forward at this time and smiled bitterly and hugged his fist.

"Hmm." Liuyun nodded very calmly, and asked directly to the other people without turning around, "Then did you find anything?" ”

"No anomalies in the south and east." Another lean-looking, but taciturn young man, Ye Miao spoke.

"Some remnants of what appears to be the thief's breath have been found in the middle." On the bright side, the only woman, Shui Qingqian, suddenly spoke at this time.

"Oh?" Liuyun became interested, and finally turned around, although his face was wearing a mask without holes,

But she could still feel that her gaze was instantly focused on Shui Qingqian's body, "When did you leave the breath?" ”

Shui Qingqian stretched out his hand, and on the slender and white palm that was spread out, a slightly illusory light and shadow appeared, and if you looked closely, you couldn't see that this was a miniature version of the appearance of Bird City, "Roughly before the 13th, that breath was very weak, if I didn't restore it with a secret method, it would not be long before I was afraid that it would completely dissipate between heaven and earth." ”

While talking, Shui Qingqian began to expand the part of the miniature of Bird City in the middle of the city in her hand, and then, the part that was stretched by her, slowly emerged a winding but clear red line, "Probably this route, that person entered directly through the gate and followed this route to an alley in the middle, and the breath was cut off there." ”

"I saw that place, it was just a very ordinary alley, but from this route, I can see that the other party's purpose is very clear, what should be done."

Shui Qingqian analyzed it, and then came to a conclusion:

"Someone helped him cover his breath."

Liuyun nodded, "Well, I see, the investigation just now was troublesome." ”

"The clue is broken here, but I still need to ask you to go with me again, I won't let you run in vain, and the reward will be doubled." The corners of Liuyun's mouth bloomed with a smile like a spring breeze.

Several people glanced at each other, couldn't stop the surprise in their eyes, and then saluted Liuyun one after another, "Thank you Liuyun Commander." ”

"Well, it's okay, it's all right." Liuyun waved his hand and looked at Shui Qingqian again, "Shui Ling, in terms of qi and rhyme, you are the best at it, and I have to trouble you to make another move." ”

Shui Qingqian nodded silently, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"Refine that person's qi, I want to see what the direction and route he had before he came to Bird City, and then let's go back to the place where he first appeared, and I will not be willing to take a look." Although he said this, Liuyun's expression was very flat.

The faces of the others did not change, as if this was the normal performance of Liuyun.

"Okay." Shui Qingqian raised his hand, dissipating the light and shadow that had stayed in his palm, and then made a final fist as if he had pinched something.

Shui Qingqian spread out his palm, and a new light and shadow were born in his hand.

It was a map of unimaginable scale, on which a faint red line slowly emerged, connecting two points.

If you look closely, you can vaguely distinguish the appearance of this red line, Shui Qingqian's two hands grasp one end of the map, and move closer to the middle, and finally this light and shadow map begins to shrink, condensed into a small ball of light.

She slowly released the small ball of light and let it float silently in the sky, "Follow it to find the person's route." ”

"Okay, let's go." Liuyun shook his head, suddenly turned his head and asked, "It should be able to keep up with the speed of the Void Boat, right?" ”

"If you can keep up, please rest assured."

"Well, let's go." Liuyun waved his robe slightly, and when he landed, the boat they were in rowed a streamer of light, heading towards the No. 9 node where the forbidden place Chen had left.

It didn't take long for them to stop.

Just because somewhere in the sky, the void shattered like a mirror, revealing an irregular black hole.

A powerful suction force was created in the black hole, and the air around it poured in frantically, and then a small boat burst out of the air.

The black hole slowly dissipated, and the laws of free space began to fluctuate, stabilizing the unstable space again.

"Fellow Daoists, please stay!" A slightly old voice suddenly came from the boat, "I take the liberty of asking, I don't know where a few Taoist friends came from?" ”

"Hehe, you old man is also interesting, forced us to stop, only to tell us to please stay, what else is presumptuous or not, if you want to ask, just ask, but if you don't answer, you may not be necessarily." Yang Xi stepped forward and said with a chuckle.

Xiao Zhou on the opposite side was completely encircled, which was different from the shabby-looking Void Boat on their side.

But almost all of the masters present were at the level of a big guy, not to mention that the Void Boat was much more powerful and advanced than that shuttle boat, even if they didn't use the scanning function of the Void Boat, they could completely sense the existence of a total of 5 qi machines in that fully surrounded shuttle boat.

Among them, there were two powerful, long, and far-reaching auras, which were more suitable for their realm, at least at the beginning of the seventh order.

The remaining three Dao don't look bad, two mid-sixth-order and one late-sixth-order.

This level of power is enough to easily subvert a medium-sized force.

Looks like it's not a good person...... Yang Xi thought so.

"Hehe, it's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, if it weren't for the last resort, the old man wouldn't have stopped a few saints." It seemed that he could see what Yang Xi was thinking, and the old voice in the boat said with a wry smile at this time.

He was one of the two seventh-order cultivators in the boat.

The other is his younger sister.

The rest are his juniors.

This group of 5 people is the one from the Xiaoling Sect who came to investigate the incident of the No. 9 forbidden node of the sect to which it belongs in the forbidden place.

In fact, the main purpose is to recover the ban.

Helping those two guards with a low sense of existence or something is a secondary purpose, and it can be done or not.

In short, the ban must be recovered.

…………

In the current cultivator world, the cultivators of the sixth level can be called Venerable, which means that they are honored by one side, and it is not a problem to guard a slightly smaller force or family for thousands of years.

As for the seventh-order cultivators, there are also many aliases, but the most widely accepted one is the "Sage".

This is an honorific title for the strong.

But when it comes to the eighth and ninth orders, it's different.

Because the original realm title at this stage is enough to show their nobility and strength.

The eighth-order cultivator is an immortal, which means that he is about to cross the tribulation and become an immortal.

For ninth-order cultivators, the realm is directly called True Immortal.

It is almost the apex of this world.

Legend has it that in a certain heyday, there were a total of nine true immortals on the Xuanling Continent at the same time.

As for now, the spiritual calendar is only in the early millennia.

After a catastrophe, the world was in turmoil.

The apex strength on the bright side is almost always at the seventh-order sage level.

This is the highest level of the new generation.

In the context of the older generation of strong people who have escaped from the world or died directly in the catastrophe, the impact on how many strong people of the seventh class exist in a force can be said to be very profound.

After all, there are very few immortal robberies in the world, let alone the true immortal-level powerhouses that exist at the apex of the continent's history,

For most people in the current cultivator world, it is unknown whether a powerhouse of that level exists or not.

Therefore, for a powerhouse of the seventh rank, it can be regarded as a great event to send one of them to operate in the cultivator world.

The scene in front of him was actually very rare to see in the cultivator world.

Xiaoling Sect, the name of this sect sounds very delicate, revealing a sense of indisputability.

But in fact, it is an out-and-out medium and large force in the cultivator world.

Because on their bright side, there are six powerhouses in the seventh-rank category, and there are three eighth-rank robbers in the peak period, and although they are now past the peak, there is still one powerhouse at the extreme level.

Even if there is only such a strong immortal robber, the force to which the immortal robber belongs can be called a well-deserved medium-sized force.

Because as long as you have time, you can grow up without accidents.

It is not impossible to become a large force even one day.

The use of two Sage-level powerhouses to take action was enough to see how much the upper echelons of the Little Spirit Sect attached importance to this matter as a whole.

…………

In the void, two small boats confronted each other.

"Hehehehe, what kind of misunderstanding is it, I'm really interested now." Yang Xi raised his eyebrows, covered his mouth and chuckled.

In the all-encompassing shuttle boat, a figure emerged from the hatch.

The visitor's face was old and thin, wrinkles were all over his cheeks, a cyan robe was windless, and his body was deeply restrained.

Just looking at the appearance, what is the difference between that appearance and the old man in the mortal world?

However, the powerful and long aura emanating from his body showed that he was an out-and-out seventh-order sage-level existence.

"When I heard my senior brother's advice, I calculated a hexagram and said that I would meet a noble person in this direction, and I think that the noble person is you."

The old man said this first, and then bowed deeply to a few people, and then smiled and opened his mouth to introduce himself, "The behavior just now was abrupt, the old man will compensate you, now I will officially introduce myself, the old little Qingye Daoist is the first seat of the Qingye Peak of the Little Spirit Sect, and it should be regarded as a little famous in the cultivator world, and I hope that you nobles will forgive the presumptuousness of the old man." ”

"Oh, it's Aoba Daoren!" Yang Xi looked very surprised, as if he remembered something, and nodded suddenly.

Just when the old man stroked his long beard, he only heard Yang Xi say indifferently: "Sorry, I haven't heard of it." ”

"............" Aoba Michi.

The air seemed to freeze in an instant.

Thankfully, the awkward atmosphere only lasted a few seconds.

In the end, it was Michito Aoba who smiled and broke the awkward silence.

"I don't know what the names of the nobles are?"

"Huh? You ask me? Yang Xi plucked out his ears, and then pointed at himself again, looking like he didn't hear clearly.

"Well, please also ask this noble man to give advice." Aoba Daoren is still smiling and welcoming people, and the expression on his face is still the same, and he has never been moved at all.

"Why should I tell you?"

Without waiting for the Aoba Daoist to answer, Yang Xi suddenly spoke at this time,

"Okay, okay, you're here to stop us just to talk this nonsense? Then you can get out, don't you know that our time is precious? ”

"Say something quickly, let it go quickly, the master's time is very precious, can you afford to pay for the delay?" Yang Xi looked at him arrogantly.

Michito Aoba: "............"

What about your reserve and face as a seventh-order saint? Why did you meet such a person who doesn't play cards according to the routine?

If he wasn't sure that this person was in the same realm as himself, and he was also a saint, maybe even with his current qi cultivation skills, he couldn't help but slap him into ashes.

Even now, the people of Aoba Dao have endured the unhappiness in their hearts with the qi cultivation kung fu that they have cultivated for many years, and they still have a smile like a spring breeze on their faces.

But the anger in his chest began to grow and burn uncontrollably.

Aoba Daoren smiled and said, "Then the old decay will not delay the precious time of the nobles, so I will tell the truth directly." ”

"May I ask a few nobles, are you looking for someone?"

As soon as these words came out, he keenly noticed that the attention of several other people who were not thinking about him suddenly focused on himself.

The gaze of a strong man of the same level could not make him have any gaffe in his heart, and Aoba Daoren secretly said that the bet was right, and he still said with a full smile on his face:

"And that man's methods are quite clever, restored through clues, but there are still few useful clues."

"I think we should be looking for the same person, why don't I provide some clues for your reference, how about it?"

He finally stated his purpose.

Yang Xi glanced at Liuyun's expression, and decisively stepped forward and said:

"Okay, let's release the clues you found, let's see if the person you're looking for is the person we're looking for, maybe we might even cooperate."

"Well, then please take care of it." Aoba Daoren didn't care at all about the attitude of those people who refused to tell him their names, a strange stone appeared in his hand, and then he didn't know what he did, just a light touch, and a virtual image bloomed in the air.

…………

About 5 minutes later.

Aoba Daoren stroked his long beard, with a smile on his face that everything was under control, and he slowly stood in the void like that, without speaking, quietly looking at the few people opposite.

On the Void Boat, Liuyun and several people stood quietly on the boat with unchanged faces, as if nothing had happened, and they were actually communicating quickly through divine thoughts.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what is the result of the discussion?" Aoba asked with a smile on his beard.
