Chapter 761 - 427: Reinforcements
At the heart of Yongle Island, a suffocating atmosphere weighed heavily on every cultivator present.
Elder Jin Kai’s face was extremely somber. The unexpected killing of Elder Li Yuanba by Elder Shi Ming had already been a surprise, but he had never anticipated that Great Elder Sun Ao, who had been sent on a mission, would also encounter trouble.
Great Elder Sun Ao carried a communication token commonly used in Beishu Continent, which allowed him to contact Yongle Island as long as he was within Beishu Continent.
Normally, he would report to Yongle Island at a fixed time every day, but this time, three days had passed without any message from Great Elder Sun Ao.
Elder Jin Kai didn’t even need to investigate, as his sense of Great Elder Sun Ao led him to conclude that Sun Ao had likely fallen.
By the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, one’s spirit reaches a certain level, creating a kind of sensing ability toward cultivators they frequently interact with.
The consecutive killings of two great elders made him realize that Beishu Continent was not as simple as it seemed.
He realized there might be a discrepancy in his, or even Skywalk Trading Company’s, understanding of Beishu Continent compared to other continents.
Both Elder Shi Ming and Great Elder Sun Ao were among the top existences in the rank of great elders in the entire Cultivation World.
Yet, such top-notch great elders were lost in Beishu Continent, a place with inferior resources and cultivation techniques.
