Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 142

Sect Master Hua Tian glanced at everyone, then fixed his gaze on Venerable Dan Hua, and said solemnly, "Uncle-Master, the situation at Black Wind Cliff is complex and unpredictable. Please take extra care. This mission is arduous, so please ensure your own safety."

Venerable Danhua nodded slightly and responded with a short "hmm".

He exchanged a glance with Venerable Miaoyin beside him, and the two of them, in perfect unison, lifted their feet and strode out of the Five Flowers Sect.

After the two Venerable Ones departed, Sect Master Hua Tian spoke again, issuing orders to everyone present: "All affairs within the sect shall proceed as usual, but those with suspicious behavior must be thoroughly investigated. Disciples of the Enforcement Hall must cooperate closely with the Dark Division, leaving no stone unturned! Closely monitor the Bai family cultivators."

Only after things had completely calmed down outside did Gu Shihan cautiously reveal herself.

His divine sense quickly spread out, instantly sweeping over Xingbai and Yutong in the distance. The two of them looked somewhat disheveled, as if they had suffered some injuries.

Gu Shihan's heart tightened, and she quickly flew to their side, asking with concern, "Xingbai, Yutong, what happened to you? Are you alright?"

Despite the pain, Xingbai waved her little paws to comfort her, "Hanhan, don't worry, we're fine! We were just accidentally affected by the terrifying pressure that guy released. It's nothing serious! We can't stay here any longer, we need to leave quickly."

Yu Tong nodded anxiously, echoing, "Yes, yes, sister, let's hurry! If that evil cultivator catches up with us, the consequences will be unimaginable! With our current strength, we are no match for him!"

Gu Shihan nodded solemnly and made up her mind without hesitation: "Okay! There's no time to lose, I'll contact my elder brother right away!" After saying that, she took out a crystal clear jade talisman that emitted a faint spiritual light.

She took a deep breath and slowly poured a wisp of pure spiritual energy into the jade talisman.

As spiritual energy was continuously inputted, the jade talisman began to emit a soft light and tremble slightly.

Just then, Gu Shihan squeezed hard, and with a crisp "crack", the jade talisman shattered.

Not long after, Shi Qinghan's tall and upright figure appeared in front of Gu Shihan.

His gaze was sharp as a sword. He quickly scanned the area, and when he saw the injured Xingbai and Yutong, his originally calm face couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.

He didn't say much, but simply nodded slightly to Gu Shihan to indicate that he was aware of the situation.

Without any verbal communication, the two of them moved and were on Xiao Hei's back.

With a cry, Little Black transformed into streaks of light and vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

For safety's sake, Xingbai unleashed her full power of restraint to completely conceal Xiaohei's figure, lest any demonic beasts sense it and cause unnecessary trouble.

Xiao Hei's speed was no joke. It was like a black lightning bolt that ripped through the sky, carrying Gu Shihan and Shi Qinghan as it sped forward at breakneck speed.

In just a short while, it had already successfully flown over a hundred miles away.

Gu Shihan's sense of urgency lessened slightly, and the tension in her heart finally eased.

"Hanhan, there's a cave ahead! Should we stop and rest for a bit?" Xingbai suggested, her breathing slightly disordered.

Gu Shihan knew that Xingbai had overexerted itself and needed rest. She focused her gaze and, sure enough, there was a faintly visible, rather hidden cave on the mountainside ahead. She gently stroked Xingbai's white fox fur, which was somewhat disheveled, a result of its excessive exertion. Yutong also looked exhausted. Gu Shihan felt a pang of shame; she was too weak.

She nodded and said, "No problem, Xiao Hei, let's go to that cave!"

Little Black let out a cry and landed at the cave entrance in the blink of an eye.

"We'll stay here for a while. Xingbai and Yutong, you're both injured, so why don't you go back to your space and heal your wounds first!"

Yu Tong nodded obediently and replied, "Sister, don't worry, I will take good care of Xing Bai." She picked up Xing Bai, and then her figure flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Gu Shihan and Shi Qinghan entered the cave and first cleaned up the environment inside, moving away some rocks and weeds. After using the Qingfeng spell, the cave was clean.

After everything was tidied up, Shi Qinghan turned her head slightly and her gaze fell directly on Gu Shihan.

His expression was unusually serious and earnest as he slowly said, "Little sister, in my opinion, why don't we stay in this cave for a few more days?"

Firstly, it allows everyone to recharge and conserve their energy; secondly... I can also take this opportunity to enter the space and fully cultivate the divine sense technique that I've always longed for.

After these days of exploration and experimentation, I feel I've vaguely touched upon the threshold of this divine sense cultivation technique. If I can seize this opportunity and successfully break through to the basics in one go, it will undoubtedly be of immense benefit to my future cultivation path!

Gu Shihan's eyes were firm, and without the slightest hesitation, she nodded heavily and replied, "Alright! Big brother, then you can go and cultivate with peace of mind. Leave the outside to me."

Shi Qinghan nodded slightly, his figure flickered, and he instantly disappeared from the spot, directly entering the mustard seed space he carried with him to begin his secluded cultivation.

Only Gu Shihan and Xiao Hei remained in the cave. Gu Shihan set up a concealment array at the cave entrance before she felt relieved.

She brought Mo Yu and several other male cultivators out of the Qiankun Room. Their complexions had improved, and she fed them another drop of Life Essence.

After finishing these tasks, he took out a table and chairs, and began drawing talismans while keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings, not missing any subtle sounds or unusual movements.

Gu Shihan, who was in the cave, never expected that less than a quarter of an hour after they left, a red figure suddenly appeared in mid-air.

This person was dressed in a bright and eye-catching red robe, with a graceful figure and an extremely alluring face, which made people turn their heads.

With a flick of his sleeve, the man swiftly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, as if performing some kind of mysterious magic.

As he moved, a breathtaking scene suddenly appeared—a raging fire shot into the sky, its flames surging and roaring like a fiery dragon wreaking havoc in the air.

However, apart from the raging fire and Bai Ling's piercing screams, there was nothing else unusual. Not a single person could be seen, not even a wild animal.

"Who dares to hide here? Get out here for me!" A furious roar resounded through the heavens and earth. The person wearing a blood-red robe was none other than Hua Sihai, the evil cultivator patriarch who struck fear into the hearts of people in the martial arts world.
