Chapter 577 Race against time
Haoqing did not deny it, but replied:

"Yu Ling asked me to ask you, but I don't know the specifics."

Linlang watched Xunkun's soul fire until it completely stabilized before putting the soul lamp into her storage bracelet. She then used Haoqing's communication jade slip to inquire about Ranxi's soul lamp.

Yu Ling replied quickly. After exchanging a few words and confirming that their respective disciples' situations had temporarily stabilized, they cut off contact.

After Haoqing retrieved the communication jade slip, he said:
“The cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect have also entered the Azure Flower Mountains. They should have something to track the Mountain and River Scroll. Should we consider teaming up with them?”

Linlang wore a serious expression, expressing her dissatisfaction with the Immortal Transformation Sect:

“The Mountain and River Scroll had already caused an incident once before. Why was the Immortal Transformation Sect not prepared and allowed the same thing to happen twice? This time, there won’t be as many Nascent Soul disciples to sacrifice.”

Although her disciple was lucky enough to leave the Mountain and River Scroll alive, less than one in ten of the Nascent Soul disciples from the Kunmo Sect who participated in the Five Domains Grand Competition survived. Although the Huaxian Sect provided compensation, how could this compensation compare to that of the outstanding younger disciples? However, the evil cultivators kept making small moves, and these seniors could only swallow their anger in order to maintain the overall situation. But in private, they all had grievances against the Huaxian Sect.

Haoqing said in a deep voice:
"After being the boss for so long, he always wanted to maintain his current position, but he used the wrong methods. He knew that the Mountain and River Scroll had problems but did not say so. He not only harmed us, but also the disciples of the Immortal Transformation Sect. In the end, the evil cultivators were the ones who benefited."

We cannot comment further on this matter. The most important thing now is to retrieve the Scroll of Mountains and Rivers. Our concern remains the dragon's tooth sealed within it, doesn't it?"

Linlang nodded and said:
“You’re right. I’ll cause trouble for the Immortal Transformation Sect once Xun Kun returns safely.”

Subsequently, the Kunmo Sect, Haoran Sect, and Mingjian Sect formed a team to search for Xianyao and Xianfeng of Huaxian Sect.

Meanwhile, the red fox guarding the Mountain and River Scroll was unaware of the approaching danger. Black gas was constantly escaping from the place where it had buried the scroll, but it did not attract the red fox's attention.

A month later, when the red fox realized something was wrong, its eyes had turned red, and as it remained unconscious for longer and longer, its cultivation level actually continued to rise, reaching the fifth rank.

The temporary teams from Kunmo Sect, Mingjian Sect, and Haoran Sect found Xianyao and Xianfeng of Huaxian Sect in just two days. The encounter between the two sides was somewhat awkward.

Xianyao and Xianfeng greeted the six seniors with the respect due to juniors. After the six returned the greetings politely, Linlang got straight to the point:

"Since you two have come to the Qinghua Mountains, you must know that the Mountain and River Scroll is here. Have you made any discoveries since you entered the mountains?"

Xianyao cupped her hands and said:
"We received the sect's message and entered the Qinghua Mountains not long ago. The compass from the Mountain and River Scroll provided intermittent directions, but after we entered the inner perimeter of the Qinghua Mountains, the compass stopped working. We are not sure if the search direction is correct."

Xianfeng, standing to the side, added:
"Perhaps it was because our approach alerted the evil cultivators that they broke our lock on the Mountain and River Scroll."

Haoqing asked:

"Could we take a look at the compass that tracks the Mountain and River Scroll?"

"can."

Without any hesitation, Xianyao handed over the tracking compass.

After Linlang and Zhuye took the compass, they carefully examined the pointer on it and even turned it around, but the pointer did not change. Then they handed the compass to the other four people.

After reading it, the veteran Nascent Soul cultivators had a clear understanding of the situation. They were certain that the Mountain and River Scroll was located within the inner perimeter of the Qinghua Mountain Range. However, for some unknown reason, the Mountain and River Scroll had blocked their own aura, which was why the compass had stopped responding.

Hao Hui said coldly:
"There are two possibilities. One is that the Mountain and River Scroll was temporarily sealed by the evil cultivator, so the compass cannot track it. The other is that the Dragon Fang may be breaking the seal of the Mountain and River Scroll. In order to trap the Dragon Fang, the Mountain and River Scroll can only keep consuming its own power, which makes it impossible for the Immortal Transformation Sect's exclusive tracking compass to find it."

Linlang continued:
"According to Xianyao and the others, the compass was still working when they arrived at the Qinghua Mountains, which proves that the evil cultivator's temporary seal had failed. If the effort to trap the Dragon Tooth Mountain River Scroll was so great that the compass could no longer track them, that would not be a good thing."

Minghong is more direct:
"If the Mountain and River Scroll exhausts its own power, the Dragon Fang will definitely break through, which would be even worse."

"There must be evil cultivators entering the Qinghua Mountains searching for the Mountain and River Scroll. Our current competition is to see who can find it first," Zhu Ye added.
"The current situation is that the seal on the Mountain and River Scroll by the evil cultivators has failed, so the evil cultivators who enter the Qinghua Mountain Range cannot find the Mountain and River Scroll first. However, if the Mountain and River Scroll continues to be consumed, it will also allow the Dragon Fang to break through the seal again. At that time, the evil cultivators will definitely find it first."

Mingxian waved his hand and said:

"Stop analyzing, let's split up and start searching. The inner perimeter is only so big, we can just turn it over inch by inch, I don't believe we can't find it."

"Okay, let's continue in pairs and send a signal if we make a discovery."

Linlang is also a woman of action and didn't want to waste any more time.

Minghong looked at Xianyao and Xianfeng and said:

"Gentlemen, finding the Mountain and River Scroll is no longer just a matter for your Immortal Transformation Sect. Even though the Dragon Fang was severely damaged by Ran Xi's self-destructed immortal artifact, it is still an ancient evil artifact that you cannot control. If you find it, it would be best to notify us."

"Yes, we understand."

Both of them felt their faces burning. As disciples of the Immortal Transformation Sect, they had to bear the consequences of the sect's wrong decision.

Then the eight streaks of light disappeared from the spot, and soon after, a Nascent Soul cultivator approached the vicinity. He held a black arrow in his palm, seemingly pointing in the direction, but this time the arrow pointed to the entire surrounding area.

"What's going on? They've actually separated? Has they discovered something, or are they preparing to cast a wide net?"

The evil cultivator's eyes darkened, and he finally chose a direction to follow, which happened to be the direction that Xian Yao and Xian Feng were searching.

Five days later, Xianyao and Xianfeng faced off against the maddened fifth-tier demon cultivator, the red fox, and engaged in battle.

Xianyao's brows were furrowed tightly:

"Senior brother, something's not right with this fox."

Xianfeng used a jade pen to block the red fox's paw and echoed:

"It has an evil aura about it, and its eyes look strange; it seems to be under control."

Xianyao asked:

"Should we notify the seniors of the Famous Sword Sect?"

"Let's capture this corrupted red fox first. We can't determine why it became corrupted or whether it came into contact with the Mountain and River Scroll."

"it is good!"

The two then engaged the red fox in a fierce battle, one wielding a sword and the other a jade pen. The commotion was so great that it attracted the attention of the Nascent Soul cultivators following behind them.

The other party's ruthless eyes swept over Xian Yao and Xian Feng, then he stuck on an invisibility talisman and approached.

Although Xianfeng was fighting, he was also paying attention to his surroundings. Suddenly, a feeling of dread washed over him, and he roared:
"Junior sister, retreat!!!"

The next instant, a huge explosion occurred at the spot where the two people and the fox were fighting, creating a deep crater within a radius of one mile.

After that, several streaks of light rushed toward this place.

　See you tomorrow, my darlings~ Goodnight~
