Chapter 410: Searching


    Due to the bacsh from the Grand Evolving Fortune, Meng Zhang suffered severe injuries and had to hide underground to recover, spending nearly half a month in the process. It turned out to be a good decision as it helped them avoid many troubles on the surface.


    On the day when Meng Zhang and his group encountered the ambush by the Ghost Path cultivators, they managed to escape in time, leading Jin Qiao''er and Jue Ying with them. The other two groups of cultivators weren''t as lucky.


    Led by Wang Qiquan, the loose group of cultivators showed remarkable teamwork, managing to repel a False Core strength Ghost Path cultivator. They even broke through the encirclement with the help of a fake Third Rank talisman.


    Apart from some minor injuries, there were no other losses for them.


    The group led by Lu Chao had the worst luck. As fellow cultivators from Great Wind City, Ye Feifan held a strong grudge against these big family descendants, so he focused most of his attention on Lu Chao and his team.


    Facing the siege of numerous Ghost Path cultivators, Lu Chao tried his best but couldn''t hold on. In the end, he had to abandon hispanions and barely escaped.


    The vengeful Ghost Path cultivators chased after him relentlessly, leaving him with no way to escape.


    In desperation, Lu Chao actually entered the territory of the Little Demon''s Lair.


    The Little Demon''s Lair was a ce where a group of demonic cultivators hid, and even Ghost Path cultivators didn''t dare to easily enter.


    If ordinary cultivators could bepared to civilians, then Ghost Path cultivators were at best bandits, while demonic cultivators were like invading barbarians.


    When Ghost Path cultivators encountered demonic cultivators, they generally kept their distance and avoided confrontation.


    For Lu Chao, entering the Little Demon''s Lair was like jumping from the tiger''s den to the wolf''s den.


    After sessfully ambushing the group and conducting a thorough search, the Ghost Path cultivators failed to find any trace of the escaped cultivators and had to temporarily give up.


    However, their victory didn''tst long. Just a few dayster, Daoist Master Jin Li arrived at the Ghost Path cultivators''ir, ck Wind Grave.


    Standing in the air, Jin Li Daoist Master looked down at the foul and messynd below, her face full of disgust.


    With a wave of her hand, the ground rippled like water, continuously undting and shaking. The violent earthquake made the earth seem as if it was about to split open. Many Ghost Path cultivators couldn''t continue hiding underground and were forced to fly outside.


    Due to certain agreements, she couldn''t directly attack these Ghost Path cultivators, but giving them a scare and causing them some trouble wasn''t a big problem.


    "Daoist Master, please spare your Divine Ability," the giant skull that had once chased Meng Zhang spoke, now flying below Jin Li Daoist Master with a rather subdued and cautious demeanor.


    "Daoist Master, we''ve been staying here quietly and haven''t offended you. Why are you causing such amotion here?" it pleaded.


    "Why should I exin my actions to you? I felt a bit bored and decided to stir things up here. Is there a problem?" Jin Li Daoist Master looked down at them disdainfully.


    The giant skull surprisingly looked somewhat pitiful and knew better than to continue talking. Having interacted with Jin Li Daoist Master before, it was well aware of her difficult nature.


    The other Ghost Path cultivators present also kept silent, afraid of drawing Jin Li Daoist Master''s attention.


    Jin Li Daoist Master was satisfied with the attitude of these Ghost Path cultivators and didn''t bother to deal with them any further.


    "Have you hunted any outsider cultivators recently?" Jin Li Daoist Master had been tasked with finding a certain outsider Diviner. However, the Deadly Sea of Sand was vast, and without any other clues, finding a single outsider cultivator was like finding a needle in the ocean.


    Even as a Gold Core Daoist Master with broad Divine Ability, she didn''t have a good method for this task.


    On the other hand, the group of Ghost Path cultivators hiding in the Deadly Sea of Sand were like bloodthirsty beasts. As soon as an outsider cultivator entered the Deadly Sea of Sand, they were like cats catching the scent of blood, eager to harvest their flesh, bones, and even their souls.


    Thus, Jin Li Daoist Master sought out these Ghost Path cultivators, hoping to glean some information from them.


    "We haven''t, we haven''t..." The giant skull shook repeatedly.


    "Let Daoist Master know that we have been staying here quietly during this period, and we have absolutely not gone outside."


    "Is that so?" Jin Li Daoist Master clearly didn''t believe them.


    However, these Ghost Path cultivators were seasoned veterans. They had already decided not to tell the truth, and Jin Li Daoist Master couldn''t do much about it.


    In truth, Jin Li Daoist Master had held back when she took action earlier. At most, she frightened them and had no intention of seriously hurting them.


    Despite her intimidation, Jin Li Daoist Master failed to get the information she wanted and had no choice but to leave.


    While Jin Li Daoist Master was disying her power, Ye Feifan had been hiding among the group of Ghost Path cultivators, not daring to make any moves.


    He couldn''t help but envy the imposing aura of a Gold Core Daoist Master.


    After Jin Li Daoist Master left, Ye Feifan flew in front of the giant skull and said, "Fellow Daoist, you''ve seen it yourself. A Gold Core Daoist Master possesses such power. As long as you assist me in obtaining the Ling Marrow, I will surely reward you handsomely once I achieve Gold Core in the future."


    The giant skull looked at Ye Feifan skeptically but didn''t say anything.


    Although Ye Feifan had practiced the Ghost Path secret technique Bloodline Parasitism, he wasn''t considered aplete Ghost Path cultivator by nature, so he naturally couldn''t gain the full trust of these Ghost Path cultivators.


    While the position of these Ghost Path cultivators in the Deadly Sea of Sand was somewhat awkward, they didn''t want to attack the sand monsters proactively.


    Ye Feifan understood their doubts and didn''t rush; he let them think it over.


    After Jin Li Daoist Master left ck Wind Grave, she continued flying northward and arrived near the Little Demon''s Lair.


    Although she knew that there were no Gold Core-level demonic cultivators inside, Jin Li Daoist Master''s face still showed a hint of caution. After hesitating for a moment, she decided not to enter and detoured elsewhere.


    Unaware that the person she was searching for was currently with her disciple Jin Qiao''er, Jin Li wandered through the Deadly Sea of Sand, searching for clues.


    Not too long after Meng Zhang and his group found a peaceful time underground, it didn''tst.


    Several Second Rank sand monsters suddenly intruded into their hiding ce, attacking them furiously.


    The sand monsters in the Deadly Sea of Sand were divided into many different groups, and Meng Zhang and his group were looking for a specific group that guarded their nest. They had no interest in tangling with unrted sand monsters.


    The Deadly Sea of Sand was teeming with sand monsters, making it impossible to kill them all, and there were no spoils of war to gain from killing them. Meng Zhang and his group didn''t want to waste their energy and engaged the attacking sand monsters only briefly before retreating.


    Back on the surface, they had to spend some effort to shake off the pursuing sand monsters.
