Chapter 941: There Was Indeed a Problem
In front of them was a deep and dark valley. The clouds and mist were ethereal, like an illusion. A few huge mountains stood tall outside the valley. Their shapes were strange yet majestic; they were like the peerless masters in ancient legends, standing proudly between heaven and earth.
Right in front of them, there were two mountain rocks reaching into the clouds. One of them had the word ‘flowing’ written on it, and the other had the word ‘clouds’ written on it. Together, they formed the word ‘flowing clouds’. The clouds and mist floated in front of these two words, making them seem even more faintly alive, the essence of the word ‘flowing cloud’ was completely revealed.
Ling Chuxi tried to use Mind Training Chant to probe inside. As soon as she did, she felt a slight pain in her mind. An invisible restriction was placed outside the valley, repelling her divine consciousness.
Ling Chuxi quickly stopped the Mind Training Chant. Since this was the place where the leader of the Flowing Cloud Sect cultivated, it was not strange that there was a strong defence set up.
Ling Chuxi had also heard of some sect taboos. Usually, ordinary people were not allowed to trespass into the place where the sect leader cultivated, so she did not see any disciples of the Flowing Clouds Sect along the way. However, if the sect leader wanted to see her, would it be at the place where he cultivated?
“The sect leader wants to see me here? Not at his residence?” asked Ling Chuxi as she turned to look at Yuan Hui with a slight frown. The doubts in her heart grew bigger, and she became more suspicious.
“The sect leader has been cultivating here recently. He heard about you today, so he wanted to meet you on the spur of the moment,” said Yuan Hui.
Such a reason seemed to make sense. Ling Chuxi thought for a moment and slowly took two steps towards the valley. Just now, when she saw the two mountain rocks, she felt her body slightly stiffen, and an icy chill pressed down on her body.
Ling Chuxi was suddenly shocked, and a strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart. From the outside, this valley looked like an ethereal fairyland, but when she entered it, she could feel a sinister and terrifying aura.
Ling Chuxi had seen her big brother use the martial techniques of Flowing Clouds Sect. It was grand and unrestrained, completely inconsistent with the aura in this valley.
One had to know that the more profound the martial technique, the higher the requirement of the state of mind. Ling Chuxi initially practised the Thunder Cloud Battle Qi by borrowing the power of the mountain to guide the Thunder Cloud Battle Qi’s shocking power from the sky.
Under such circumstances currently, how could there be such a grand and unrestrained state of mind? How could it be suitable for the cultivation of Flowing Clouds Sect’s martial techniques?
Ling Chuxi frowned slightly. Something was not right. From the corner of her eyes, she secretly looked at the person who had led her there and caught a smug smile on his lips.
As expected, there was a problem!
“What is this place?” asked Ling Chuxi calmly as she suddenly turned around.
“What?” Yuan Hui did not expect Ling Chuxi to suddenly turn around. The smile was still hanging on the corner of his mouth, and he unconsciously let his guard down.
“This isn’t the place where the leader of Flowing Clouds Sect cultivates, is it?” asked Ling Chuxi coldly as she narrowed her eyes.
“How do you know?” Yuan Hui looked surprised, but he didn’t deny it.
“Simple, because it’s impossible to have the state of mind to cultivate Flowing Clouds Sect’s martial technique here,” said Ling Chuxi indifferently.
If it were anyone else, they might not have noticed this so quickly. However, Ling Chuxi’s initial cultivation of the Thunder Cloud Battle Qi was to take a different path and take advantage of the situation. After that, she cultivated the Mind Training Chant, so her sensitivity to surroundings was far greater than ordinary people. And now that she had cultivated the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, her understanding of the state of mind was even deeper.
“Amazing, amazing.” Yuan Hui clapped his hands and pretended to be impressed, but in fact, he had spoken sarcastically. “I didn’t expect you to realize it so quickly. Not bad. This is indeed not the place where the sect leader cultivates. Unfortunately, you still discovered it a little too late.”
