The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 248: Detection Array Formation

“How can the Feng family not even have a single person in charge?”

“I also discovered that the direct descendants of the Feng family who came in earlier seem to have quietly disappeared.”

“Is this the way the Yunmeng City aristocratic families treat their guests? It’s not very impressive.”

“Or are they really daring to plot something against the top three of the Alchemy Conference?”

“……”

As night fell, more and more people gathered here.

Countless cultivators surrounded the Treasure Pavilion, their faces filled with curiosity.

The cultivators of the Flowing Wind Sword Sect had promised that if Su Jingzhen and Xuening didn’t come out from the Feng family within two hours, their Justice Sword would definitely be raised above the heads of the Feng family members.

At this moment, many cultivators of the Flowing Wind Sword Sect sat in a corner, each with a unique aura.

They didn’t speak or make a sound, as if they were silently counting down the time, their sword intent growing increasingly fierce.

“Old Man Mu, what is the Feng family doing? If they’re just going to retrieve a medicinal material, it shouldn’t take so long, right? If they provoke everyone’s anger this time, I’m afraid we won’t need to bring out the evidence from the Spirit Sound Inn. All the fellow cultivators gathered here can tear them apart.”

Sikong Tingyun also furrowed his brows, looking at Old Man Mu as if asking a question.

From the first day of the Alchemy Conference, Sikong Tingyun and his ten Golden Core late-stage protectors had already been a deterrent.

Old Man Mu thought for a moment before shaking his head. “Miss only told me to wait outside. I only know that the Feng family’s Alchemy Conference this time is not as simple as it seems on the surface.”

“Perhaps Master Su and Xuening may not be able to come out within two hours. Of course, I don’t think the Feng family would be foolish enough to really provoke everyone’s anger. But today will definitely be troublesome.”

After hearing Old Man Mu’s words, Sikong Tingyun nodded silently and didn’t say anything more.

Today, the Feng family was generous enough to allow everyone to enter their estate.

This way, just as Feng Lie had predicted, with so many people, there would be all sorts of trouble.

The Feng family estate was extremely luxurious, with many spiritual herbs and medicines planted even in the courtyard.

With so many people, there would always be some who wouldn’t keep their hands clean.

However, just as many people gathered by the lake were about to disperse and head towards the Feng family estate…

Led by Feng Baozhao, a group of direct descendants of the Feng family, accompanied by many guards, had already arrived at the scene.

“Hahaha, today our Feng family’s hospitality is lacking. We can only let everyone rest here for a while. After some time, our Feng family will definitely host a grand banquet and invite everyone to gather again.”

Feng Baozhao’s voice had already reached them before he arrived, and at this moment, he had the demeanor of a family head.

A few sentences had already calmed down many people’s emotions.

However, the Spirit Sound Valley, Flowing Wind Sword Sect, and Lingxiu Pavilion, which were on the same level as the Feng family, remained silent.

They were still quietly staring at the Treasure Pavilion in the center of the lake.

Each of these families had their own thoughts, and they might be waiting for an opportunity to take advantage of the Feng family’s situation.

Previously, the Huayang Sect had fallen, and the remaining four major powers in Yunmeng City had divided the spoils.

This time, even if the Feng family didn’t collapse due to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s relationship, they might still be able to gain some benefits.

And at this moment, under the shade of a tree by the lake, Shen Yifeng’s gaze was also silently fixed on the Treasure Pavilion.

His brows had already furrowed.

‘This time, the Feng family shouldn’t dare to take such a reckless risk, right? It’s also my fault that I didn’t show my identity directly on the Wind Bell Island and take those two kids away.’

Shen Yifeng was muttering to himself, with a hint of regret in his words.

‘But if those two kids are harmed in any way this time, the Feng family might as well be directly eliminated from Qingzhou’s land.’

……

Outside the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, countless people had different thoughts.

However, Su Jingzhen, Xuening, and the other two had already passed through the passage on the first floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion and entered another space.

Here, it was still cold and dark, but not as dark as Su Jingzhen had imagined.

They now found themselves in a cold corridor, with bronze walls on both sides.

On the walls, there were two rows of long lanterns stretching towards the end of the corridor.

Su Jingzhen’s heart was slightly surprised, feeling that this place had an ancient tomb-like atmosphere.

“Everyone, be careful,” Ye Zhiqiu suddenly warned.

It is normal for a place like this to have some sort of puppet guardian protecting the seclusion of an important person.

In Ye Zhiqiu’s view, they were all alchemists, and even with Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, their combat strength was extremely weak.

If a Golden Core stage puppet guardian were to appear, they would likely be directly wiped out.

Su Jingzhen and the others’ expressions turned vigilant, their eyes involuntarily looking back.

Fortunately, the passage they had come from was still present on this side.

Su Jingzhen stretched out a hand, and he could still sense the suction force coming from the passage.

He then felt relieved.

“There’s only this one corridor, and I’m sure the Feng family’s ancestor is at the end of it.”

After saying this, Ye Zhiqiu’s gaze suddenly turned to Su Jingzhen and Xuening.

“Master Su, Xuening, I’m a few years older than you two. This time, let me take the lead, how about it?”

The four of them had received Feng Lie’s valuable gifts, and now their goal was to awaken the Feng family’s ancestor.

They were a small team, no longer competitors.

As for these matters, Su Jingzhen and Xuening didn’t have any experience, so they naturally didn’t have any objections to Ye Zhiqiu’s proposal.

Moreover, since Ye Zhiqiu was willing to lead, the task might become simpler.

Su Jingzhen immediately agreed, “Miss Ye is willing to lead, that’s perfect.”

With the decision made, the four of them didn’t hesitate and headed towards the end of the corridor.

But they had only taken a few steps when Su Jingzhen suddenly discovered that the path they had walked on had mysterious symbols lit up on the bronze floor.

A strange and powerful array aura suddenly emerged.

Su Jingzhen’s heart instantly tensed up.

He immediately reacted, realizing that this must be the detection array formation that Feng Lie had mentioned.

Those with a bone age of over 30 and those who had successfully formed a Golden Core would not be able to escape this array’s detection.

They wouldn’t be able to reach the Feng family ancestor’s location.

“This array is indeed extraordinary.

Unless we can break it or reach the Soul Formation stage or above, where our divine sense can ignore its existence, it’s unlikely we can disrupt the Feng family ancestor’s seclusion.”

When the symbols lit up, Ye Zhiqiu sighed, feeling that the Feng family’s former foundation must be stronger than they had imagined.

As they spoke, the four of them continued towards the end of the corridor.

However, what made Su Jingzhen slightly relieved was that several waves of fluctuations passed over him.

He didn’t feel anything unusual, nor did he sense any rejection.

‘This array should only be able to detect the Golden Core formed by Qi cultivators.

It can’t detect the blood energy within me…’
