Chapter 388: Searching Alone

Chen Chen’s expression changed when he heard this.

In the upper realm, disappearance was basically related to death. As long as a cultivator above the Void Refinement realm did not die, it was absolutely impossible for him to go missing.

When he thought of how his grandmaster was still chatting and laughing with him a month ago, Chen Chen felt as if his heart had been stabbed.

In the upper realm, his grandmaster was the only person he was truly familiar with, and also one of the few people he could trust.

“Does the sect master know about this?”

After a long while, Chen Chen asked in a hoarse voice.

The Void Refinement realm disciple sighed and said, “Half a year ago, the sect master went into seclusion to try to fuse with the body… at such a critical moment, no one dared to disturb him. As for the other experts in the sect, most of them are not as strong as my master. My master has gone missing, so how could they dare to go? Moreover, the only grand elder who is stronger than my master has been traveling outside for more than ten years and hasn’t returned.”

Hearing this, Chen Chen frowned.

In the upper realm, how many cultivators who had lived for a thousand years were willing to risk their lives for others?

Not to mention fellow disciples, not even one’s master, disciple, father, and brothers might be willing.

Living a long life not only meant that one’s cultivation level was high, but it also meant that one was crafty and cherished one’s life.

“Junior Brother, where is the Spirit Gold City? Show me the direction.”

When the Void Refinement realm disciple heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Then, without saying anything else, he took out a map and handed it to Chen Chen, pointed at a sign on the map that was not far from the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan and said, “Senior Brother, the Spirit Gold City is here. It is only tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect. It can be considered one of the cities near the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect.”

“Thank you.”

Chen Chen thanked him, put away the map, and turned to leave.

“Senior Brother, take care!”

The voice of the Void Refinement realm disciple came from behind him. Chen Chen’s figure paused for a moment, and then he resolutely flew toward the mountain gate.

..

On the way to the Spirit Gold City, Chen Chen’s mood was extremely heavy.

If his grandmaster had been robbed halfway and died, then logically speaking, Fairy Wu Nian would not have been able to find any traces and would have returned to the sect very soon. She would not have gone missing.

However, Fairy Wu Nian, who was in the intermediate stage of the Spirit Severing stage, had now gone missing, it meant that the matter was far from as simple as blocking the road and robbing.

One had to know that in this land of alienation, the intermediate stage of the Spirit Severing stage could be considered an absolute expert. Even some City Lords did not have the cultivation level of the Spirit Severing stage.

According to the mark on the map, the city lord of Spirit Gold City was only at the peak of the Void Refinement realm.

What exactly was it that caused an expert like Fairy Wu Nian to go missing?

The more Chen Chen thought about it, the more serious his expression became. After hesitating for a moment, he took out Li Xiang’s mask and transformed into the image of a middle-aged cultivator with a fierce face and a full beard.

As for the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan disciple, he also changed into black clothes.

After a day of flying, the Spirit Gold City was getting closer and closer. Chen Chen subconsciously slowed down.

However, when his divine senses saw the Spirit Gold City, he suddenly increased his speed to the maximum. In just a moment, he had arrived in front of the Spirit Gold City.

Strictly speaking, what was in front of him was no longer a city, but a ruin. This ruin covered an area of dozens of miles, and there were broken walls everywhere.

A large number of corpses were hidden in the broken walls. Judging from the appearance of the corpses, Chen Chen deduced that these people had probably died three days ago.

“The Spirit Gold City has actually been destroyed…”

Chen Chen’s eyes flickered, and there was a faint hint of fear in his eyes.

Although the city lord of the Spirit Gold City was only at the peak of the Void Refinement realm, the city of the upper realm and the lower realm were completely different concepts. Not only were the building materials extremely sturdy, but the array formation was also extremely powerful. An ordinary Spirit Severing stage expert definitely did not have the strength to destroy a city.

Fortunately, this Spirit Gold City did not seem to have been destroyed by a single strike from a certain super expert. Instead, it had experienced some resistance and some struggles before it was destroyed.

This meant that the people who destroyed this Spirit Gold City were not that kind of super expert.

Looking at the spiritual energy of different attributes remaining on these broken walls, Chen Chen concluded that the people who destroyed the Spirit Gold City should be a group of people.

Whoosh!

Chen Chen took a deep breath and started to use the system to search for the traces of the grandmaster in the Spirit Gold City.

Even if the grandmaster was very likely dead, as long as there was a trace, he would be able to find it with the system.

..

However, after searching for a full hour and searching all over the ruins, Chen Chen did not find any trace of the grandmaster.

After all, even if he was blown to smithereens by a super expert, there would still be some smithereens that could be found.

Although he could not find any trace of the grandmaster, Chen Chen was not very optimistic.

Then, he began to search for other clues in the ruins. Soon, he found the location of the auction house in Spirit Gold City.

There was not a single corpse in the auction house that had been turned into ruins, and there were no lost treasures. It seemed that there was no event in the auction house when it was destroyed.

His grandmaster had arrived in Spirit Gold City more than twenty days ago. As for the official start of the auction, it would be a few days later.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen was even more puzzled.

Spirit Gold City seemed to have been destroyed three days ago, and the auction had already ended three days ago.

Why would someone come and destroy Spirit Gold City?

Could it be that the destruction of Spirit Gold City had nothing to do with the auction and Grandmaster’s disappearance?

Just as Chen Chen was thinking about whether he should use a ten thousand mile tracking to search for the Grandmaster’s whereabouts, a voice came from not far away.

“Who are you? Why are you here?”

Hearing this voice, Chen Chen raised his head and saw an extremely young cultivator. He was dressed in white, but his cultivation base was not weak. He had reached the advanced stage of the Void Refinement realm.

Seeing the vigilant look on the other party’s face, Chen Chen said calmly, “An elder of my sect went missing when he came to this Spirit Gold City. I came here specifically to investigate.”

Hearing this, a sorrowful look flashed across the young cultivator’s face, and the vigilance in his eyes weakened.

“I see. Fellow Daoist, I came here for the same reason as you. My master also came to this Spirit Gold City and went missing.”

Chen Chen felt some admiration in his heart when he heard this. This person’s cultivation level was even lower than his, yet he dared to come here to investigate the situation. It seemed that he was a cultivator with a good character.

Although the other party’s cultivation wasn’t high, Chen Chen didn’t have the slightest intention of looking down on him.

“Fellow Daoist, what is your master’s cultivation? Did he leave any important information before he went missing?”

The young cultivator replied, “My master’s nickname is Householder Yunshui. He just entered the Spirit Severing stage not long ago. As for before he went missing…”

At this point, a hint of hesitation flashed across the young cultivator’s eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Chen hurriedly said, “This matter is of great importance. Fellow Daoist, there’s no need to be apprehensive.”

Hearing this, the hesitation in the young cultivator’s eyes disappeared and was replaced by determination.

In fact, he was also desperate. Although he was a cultivator in the Void Refinement realm, he had not been wandering around for long. When he encountered such a matter, he was like a headless fly and did not know how to deal with it.

“Fellow Daoist, we are both in dire straits. Since that’s the case, I won’t hide it anymore. Before my master went missing, he did send me a message… he said that an important treasure had appeared at the auction. At that time, he regretted that he did not bring more Spirit Stones After that, there was no news of him. Fellow Daoist, do you think that his disappearance is related to that important treasure?”

“Treasure…”

Chen Chen fell into deep thought. The item that was called a treasure by an expert at the Spirit Severing stage was definitely not the Linglong Iron. Although the Linglong Iron was precious, it could not be considered a treasure.

“Fellow Daoist…”

Seeing that Chen Chen did not speak, the young cultivator became a little anxious.

Chen Chen waved his hand and said, “Let’s go to the mine in Spirit Gold City and take a look. It is said that the items auctioned were all dug out from that mine. We might be able to find some useful information there.”
