Chapter 348: The Trap
Liang Yan sealed the barrier behind him as he stepped out of the courtyard. His figure paused briefly before a flicker of spiritual power surged over him, and he changed into a black robe, concealing his face within the shadows of his hood.
Glancing at Fengcang Market, he pondered for a moment before swiftly making his way down the mountain.
By this time, the fluctuations of the Heart-Devouring Insect had already left Fengcang Market. Then, in a sudden burst, its speed increased dramatically—clearly, the person had activated an artifact or used an evasion technique.
This allowed Liang Yan to make a rough assessment of the individual’s strength.
They were not fast.
Based on this, Liang Yan estimated that the person’s cultivation was only at the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm.
What he desired most was to control a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator. That way, he could traverse dangerous situations with ease and collect better cultivation resources.
Still, an early-stage Foundation Building cultivator was not a bad option either—far superior to those in the Qi Refining Realm.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Liang Yan had already reached the foot of the mountain.
He deliberately slowed his pace, habitually scanning his surroundings with caution. Finding nothing unusual, he silently activated his evasion technique. In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared as he stealthily pursued his target.
Having broken through to the middle stage of the Foundation Building Realm, Liang Yan was confident in his ability to chase down the target without assistance from artifacts.
