Chapter 73: Secret Sign
Before leaving, Qin Sang quietly made another round around the mountain. Lying in wait was always easier than rushing into an encounter, but unfortunately, he gained nothing.
In the end, Qin Sang sped off in the direction he had previously chosen.
Meanwhile, the entire Eight Trigrams Forbidden Ground had already descended into chaos.
The core area of the Eight Trigrams Forbidden Ground was not large. It was a circular lake, with water as clear as jade, undisturbed by even the slightest ripple.
In the center of the lake was a small island, lush with green plants and vibrant flowers. At the center of the island stood a towering tree with huge, coiling roots, and its fiery red leaves stacked in layers, resembling a pagoda.
A Yuanzhao Sect cultivator, who had been operating the Moon-Crossing Raft, was meditating on a reef at the edge of the island. Suddenly, his face twitched slightly, and he opened his eyes, looking upward.
The sky above suddenly shifted, with wild winds raging, but they couldn’t shake the massive tree in the slightest. Two figures surrounded by the glow of protective artifacts flew through the winds and headed toward the island.
Seeing the faces of the newcomers, the tense expression of the Yuanzhao Sect cultivator relaxed, and he asked in surprise, "Junior Brother Yu, why are you here? Where is Senior Brother Du?"
The man was a Foundation Building stage cultivator in his forties, followed by a young man in white who appeared to be in his twenties, with cultivation at the eighth stage of the Qi Refining Realm.
