Chapter 387: 221: Meng Shushu's Gains, Entering the Ling Domain_1
Su Lingxiu held her breath, cautiously moving towards Meng Chong, but before she could get close, Meng Chong turned his head, surprised, “Junior sister, have you comprehended the art of concealing breath?”
Su Lingxiu’s face fell, “My master taught me, but this camouflage technique is too common; you discovered me from so far away.”
Meng Chong laughed, “Junior sister, I have grasped the intent of the knife, and awakened the soul of the knife. Your concealment technique couldn’t escape my notice, but it might not be noticeable by other martial artists.”
“I’m going to find the eldest senior brother.”
Su Lingxiu headed towards the summit.
“Oh? Where is the eldest senior brother?”
Looking around confusedly, the eldest senior brother is usually here, comprehending martial arts.
Why isn’t he here?
She passed Xu Yan, her gaze swept over him, but she simply disregarded him, unconsciously thinking that it was just a rock.
After circling the summit two or three times and passing by Xu Yan twice, she still didn’t notice him.
“Master, master, the eldest senior brother has left.”
Su Lingxiu hurriedly ran to Li Xuan.
With a worried face, “The pills I prepared, eldest senior brother didn’t take them, why did he leave without saying a word, Master, do you know where my elder senior brother has gone?”
She subconsciously thought that Xu Yan had entered the Gate of Lingyu.
She was slightly disappointed that she hadn’t yet given the pills she made especially for entering the Gate of Lingyu to the eldest senior brother.
Li Xuan forced a smile, “Your eldest senior brother is on the mountain.”
“He’s not there, Master, I just went looking.”
Su Lingxiu shook her head.
“You look carefully, try looking again.”
Li Xuan chuckled.
“Alright, I’ll go look again.”
Su Lingxiu blinked, and ran back up the mountain.
This time, she searched intently, overlooking no stone and even circling every tree, but she still didn’t notice the presence of her eldest senior brother.
“Master, I looked over every stone and even looked at the trees, I didn’t see the eldest senior brother.”
Su Lingxiu ran back to report.
How could you find him when you even disregarded him as a stone?
Li Xuan couldn’t help but admire inwardly; the technique of merging with the world that Xu Yan had comprehended was truly extraordinary.
Su Lingxiu’s achieved the small success stage of the Tongxuan Realm, but she was far inferior to Xu Yan and finding him was simply impossible!
“Why would the master deceive you, look carefully again?”
Li Xuan spoke with a smile.
Su Lingxiu pondered.
She started running again, reaching Meng Chong, “Second senior brother, master said that eldest senior brother is on the mountain, but I’ve searched several times and can’t find him. Can you help me look?”
MengChongwas confused, then stood up, “Alright!”
The two reached the peak, and Su Lingxiu looked around, “Second senior brother, can you see the eldest senior brother?”
Meng Chong hesitated, “No.”
After a round on the peak, “Are you sure master said that elder senior brother is on the mountain?”
“That’s what master said.”
Su Lingxiu nodded in frustration.
Meng Chong stood in place, examining each plant and tree on the peak closely, utilizing the intent of the knife around the peak, leaving no stone unturned.
However, he still failed to discover anything.
He gasped, shocked at heart, has eldest senior brother gained enlightenment?
This art of concealment and invisibility, is truly magical.
Existing within the earth and skies, yet the earth and skies remain oblivious; if it’s reached such a stage that even he can’t find it, it wouldn’t be surprising, considering the eldest senior brother is superior in abilities.
Li Xuan kept his eyes on the peak. Meng Chong used the intent of the knife to investigate the peak; although his method was correct, Xu Yan was the one he was dealing with, whose abilities were superior and the intent of the sword far exceeded his own.
The third level of Xu Yan’s sword intent blended into the environment, replacing it with his sword intent. Meng Chong’s knife intent was weaker than his sword intent, hence naturally he failed to find the clues hidden in it.
Furthermore, at present, both Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu had stepped into Xu Yan’s sword intent field. Despite Meng Chong getting a vague feeling that something was off, he still failed to identify the hidden danger within.
“If this was a surprise attack or an assassination, unless one is significantly stronger, it would be completely unavoidable.”
Li Xuan thought, “If Xu Yan attempted to launch a surprise attack, even someone stronger than him wouldn’t be able to evade it.”
At the peak of the mountain, Xu Yan withdrew his sword intent and revealed his figure.
“I’m here!”
Su Lingxiu widened her eyes in surprise, “Eldest senior brother, have you been here the whole time?”
“Yes.”
Xu Yan nodded with a smile.
“I didn’t notice you at all.”
Su Lingxiu was shocked. She had come back and forth several times.
She had reconnoitered several times and yet, she had ignored it the entire time.
“Eldest senior brother, have you achieved enlightenment?”
Meng Chong asked excitedly.
Xu Yan shook his head and then nodded, “I have comprehended some of it, but
I haven’t fully grasped the true meaning yet.”
“Eldest senior brother, teach me quickly.”
Su Lingxiu requested excitedly.
“Sure!”
Xu Yan taught Su Lingxiu and Meng Chong the merging-with-the-world technique.
“It’s too profound. No wonder the master said that he taught me too rudimentary a technique of concealment.”
Su Lingxiu gasped.
For the technique of merging-with-the-world, she needed some time to comprehend it.
Now that Xu Yan had comprehended the merging-with-the-world technique, it was time for him to go to the Ling Domain.
A few days later.
Xu Yan was ready to go to the Ling Domain. Li Xuan and the group were preparing to send him to the land of Cangbei, to the Gate of Lingyu.
Suddenly, a figure rushed in.
It was Meng Shushu, unseen for a long time.
“Damn, you’ve been gone for so long. You didn’t run away to escape debt, did you?”
