The martial techniques of the Tian Wu Continent are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang. Even the top forces in the martial domains practice only Heaven Level techniques.
However, Shangguan Gufeng knows that Heaven Level techniques are by no means the upper limit of martial arts in the Tian Wu Continent; above Heaven Level techniques, there are even more powerful Holy Level techniques.
It's just that she has never had the chance to see them. But now, with Qin Chen's disappearance, she speculates whether he possesses Holy Level spatial secret techniques.
Hiss! This is indeed a Holy Level secret technique. If she obtains it, wouldn’t her strength skyrocket? Would she become even more invincible?
"I absolutely cannot let that person leave here; I must find him," she vowed, determined.
But the Piao Miao Palace is so vast, where could she find him?
Although Piao Miao Palace is just a sect, the area covered by the entire array is incredibly expansive. This stretch of continuous mountains belongs to Piao Miao Palace's territory and range, with buildings on each peak serving different purposes.
Some are places for cultivation, some are for closed-door training, and there are also some forbidden areas, and so on... It's no wonder that Piao Miao Palace has developed too strongly, resulting in such a large area at the mountain gate. Finding someone here is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Gufeng Zongshang, what should we do next? The palace master should be arriving at the Mo family's territory soon. Should we inform the palace master and have her return?" Hua Ling Wudi said cautiously. Now that Shangguan Gufeng has emerged from her seclusion, she can finally breathe a sigh of relief. At least when the palace master comes back, she won't be blamed since they found nothing, right?
Hua Ling Wudi knows that what she needs to do now is to obey Gufeng Zongshang's orders; as for everything else, she doesn't need to worry.
"No need," Shangguan Gufeng shook her head. If she calls Shangguan Xier back from the Mo family now, it would make it difficult to investigate the matter between the Mo family and the Xuanyuan Empire. She has a vague feeling that there should be some connection between these two matters.
"We’ll investigate ourselves first. That guy should still be around; I will personally inform Shangguan Gongzhu and have her return immediately after she finishes with the Mo family. As for here, we will guard it," Shangguan Gufeng revealed a cold smile: "Hmph, once he enters my Piao Miao Palace, it’s like a turtle in a jar. Even if he can hide for a while, can he hide forever? I want to see how he escapes."
Shangguan Gufeng is confident in herself. As long as the opponent moves and reveals a flaw, she has enough methods to capture him.
If he stays still, it doesn’t matter; as long as Shangguan Xier returns, he won’t be able to escape.
From the moment she emerged from seclusion, the outcome was already determined: the opponent would certainly be captured, and there would be no second possibility.
"But what if he has already run away?" Hua Ling Wudi asked nervously.
"Impossible," Shangguan Gufeng shook her head, very certain: "Do you know who arranged the formation of my Piao Miao Palace? It was the number one genius of the array Dao back then, Po Chen Martial Emperor. Over the years, it has undergone countless reinforcements and upgrades, and even incorporated prohibitions from the Demon Tribe. There is absolutely no way he could leave quietly."
Upon hearing this, Hua Ling Wudi let out a sigh of relief, "That’s good. Otherwise, if Fu Qiankun really gets rescued by that person and escapes, it would be troublesome."
"The situation isn't as complicated as you think," Shangguan Gufeng scoffed, "Even though Fu Qiankun is still alive, that’s just because the Night Demon Sect still needs to study him. In fact, Fu Qiankun has long become useless; no one under heaven can save him, not even the current head of the Alchemy Pavilion."
