Decades have passed, and Li An still finds it difficult to ascertain the current whereabouts of the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow. He only speculates that it unlikely left the Xiling Origin Continent, which is why he ca here.
According to Lin Fangping’s information, Li An believes that the likely ergence in the Xiling Secret Realm this ti is the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow.
"Such a divine creature, I must make the trip."
Li An spoke, saying: "I will go and take a look, you hold the fort at the sect, what do you think?"
Lin Fangping unsurprisingly agreed wholeheartedly; he was eager for Li An to be out of the sect, as he was secretly searching for the Demon Sect and others.
...
A month later.
The once desolate Xiling Secret Realm, a barren land, had flourished over decades under the influence of the Spirit Realm aura, now teeming with life, covered in lush forests.
Dressing as an old man and altering his appearance and aura, Li An recalled the fierce battle in Yellow Springs Valley, a flood of emotions surged within him.
Nurous cultivators were gathered in the forests; evidently, news had spread, and many sought to seize the opportunity.
"Halt!"
While searching through the forest, Li An was stopped in his tracks as a group flew overhead, calling out to him.
Among them were people clad in "New Dao Alliance" attire, while others were a mix of Foundation Establishnt and Core Formation cultivators.
Leading the New Dao Alliance group was a female Nascent Soul cultivator, who scrutinized Li An, saying unceremoniously: "Who are you?"
Li An respectfully responded: "Reporting to senior, this junior is a loose cultivator, having heard of so opportunities here, thus I ca to explore..."
He was currently disguised as only a mid-stage True Core.
"I am Guo Jinglin, an elder of the New Dao Alliance. This is your reward. You are now conscripted to work for our New Dao Alliance. If you perform well, you might join us in the future!"
She tossed a storage pouch to Li An, who glanced inside to find 500 pieces of upper-grade Spirit Stone!
Still astonished, Guo Jinglin waved her hand, "Xue Li, take him with you. Quickly fortify the defenses at Cyan Forest Mountain, under no circumstances must the bird escape again!"
"The rest, co with !"
Imdiately, a middle-aged cultivator paid respects and, with seven or eight cultivators following, watched Guo Jinglin leave. Once she departed, the middle-aged cultivator Xue Li turned to Li An: "Comrade, please follow us!"
Li An’s brow slightly furrowed. The New Dao Alliance was overbearing indeed, conscripting him without so much as seeking his consent!
Yet, it was understandable, as the New Dao Alliance was an erging powerful force. Situated near both the Primordial Spirit Realm and Emperor Origin Realm, it had encroached upon the western part of Emperor Origin Realm. Rumors had it that a Divinity Transformation stage master governed within, commanding imnse respect, well-known even throughout the New Continent.
Within the Dao Sect, Li An witnessed countless experts from Refining Void to Harmonization Dao levels, many Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation stage cultivators — but that was the Dao Sect!
The illustrious Dao Sect, standing through countless ages within the Spirit Realm!
In a place like the New Continent, a Nascent Soul was indeed a true expert, and a Divinity Transformation stage was enough to dominate a region.
For him, a re mid-stage True Core loose cultivator, they needn’t be overly courteous.
Moreover, it appears skirmishes already occurred within the secret realm, the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow probably discovered, prompting the New Dao Alliance to rally forces urgently.
Li An, discreetly following Xue Li and others, soon reached Cyan Forest Mountain, where several New Dao Alliance cultivators were already pushing themselves to maintain an array, relieved and delighted at Xue Li’s arrival.
"Senior Brother Xue, you’re finally here, co quickly to assist!"
"That spirit beast is extraordinarily elusive, masking its aura and difficult to track. The sect painstakingly set down this God-locking Array, but maintaining it strains us unduly..."
The God-locking Array, it can lock onto soul fluctuations!
Observing the array, Li An was virtually certain it was designed to target the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow.
In the past, the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow trained and grew with him, absorbing the aura from his Life Seed, thus learning to cloak its presence; however, it never mastered the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, making its soul fluctuations immutable.
Xue Li organized his people, swiftly entering the array.
Li An, through the array, extended his Divine Sense.
Generally, the Divine Sense of a True Core Perfection cultivator covers rely a radius of two thousand miles, yet, with but a thought, Li An extended his to three thousand miles!
This ti, the New Dao Alliance’s capture of the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow was evidently preditated, with twelve Soul-locking Arrays arrayed within eight thousand miles around the battlefield, monitoring to prevent its escape.
Three to four thousand miles away, a trendous battle raged, and Li An already sensed the familiar aura of the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow!
Nascent Soul.
The Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow had reached Rank Four! Equivalent to a human’s Nascent Soul cultivation, and at the mont, it contended against no fewer than ten Nascent Soul cultivators!
The New Dao Alliance indeed invested heavily.
Li An deliberated briefly, should he act directly? Too perilous, given the number of people present, and likely eliciting pursuit by the New Dao Alliance.
He carefully examined this so-called Soul-locking Array.
Rank Four formation, indeed rather extraordinary, but, after so study, Li An quickly identified its flaws.
His decades of research into demonic arrays at the Daoist Sect’s Profound Turtle Peak, capable of arranging Rank Five arrays within the Celestial Performance Dao Realm, rendered him thoroughly acquainted with Rank Four formations, finding them not at all challenging.
