In the dark forest, inside a spacious and magnificent hall, a sinister voice rang out.
"Heh, spanning five realms. A six-star Dou Zun going head-to-head with the newly-breakthrough Huang Luo?"
A thick killing intent enveloped the hall: "Even Han Ning back then relied on the Spirit Clan's foundation. What makes the Xiao Clan, which has already declined, so powerful?"
The main hall remained completely silent, as if there were no living people at all.
"Hmph! I'd like to see what secrets you hold!"
"Fourth brother, go and bring this kid back to me alive. I want to see if the Xiao family's things are on him..."
"yes........"
It was a calm voice, yet it seemed to be stained with thick blood, exuding a bloody aura. Then, a red light appeared in the hall and disappeared.
Chapter 246 Sound Valley
In the void of the sky, Xiao Fan's figure flashed past, leaving behind a trail of tearing marks in the sky behind him due to his terrifying speed.
While Huang Luo was enduring Xiao Fan's attack, Xiao Fan's figure had already disappeared into the distance. By the time Huang Luo chased after him, Xiao Fan had vanished from the spot.
Xiao Fan knew he was no match for Huang Luo, so he didn't linger and took advantage of the short time to fly away into the distance.
After escaping the sight of the numerous Dou Zun powerhouses on the periphery, Xiao Fan used the Chaos Fire to envelop himself, concealing his aura, and quickly disappeared without a trace.
When Huang Luo finally broke free from the crowd and appeared where Xiao Fan had disappeared, all traces of Xiao Fan in the space had vanished. Under the cover of the Chaos Fire, Huang Luo could no longer find Xiao Fan's whereabouts.
After standing there for a long time, Huang Luo could only leave helplessly. After this battle, he finally realized how terrifying a genius like Xiao Fan was, and he finally understood why his clan had valued Han Ning so much, just like the Soul Palace.
He had already witnessed Xiao Fan's terrifying cultivation talent. No force would make such a decision as to let such an enemy continue to develop.
After getting rid of Huang Luo, Xiao Fan felt a strangely familiar aura in the void.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Fan's dark eyes. He took out the round moonstone left by Yue Yao from his pocket and felt the slightly cool aura emanating from it.
This faint aura seemed to be reminding Xiao Fan, and with the help of this faint guidance, Xiao Fan hurried in the direction indicated by the jade stone.
As Xiao Fan moved, he could sense that something resonating with the jade was rapidly approaching him in the void.
After all, this Moonlight Jade Stone was the only thing related to Yue Yao, so Xiao Fan took it very seriously.
Sensing the aura in the void, Xiao Fan's eyes turned cold as he silently waited in place, constantly adjusting his own breathing.
Soon, Xiao Fan sensed a chill emanating from the void.
"Such a familiar aura fluctuation..."
Sensing the approaching aura from the void, Xiao Fan looked puzzled. He then pushed off with both hands, and the surging battle qi directly tore apart the space in front of him, stepping into it and entering the void.
All that met my eyes was emptiness.
However, Xiao Fan could sense that a chilling energy was rapidly approaching his location from afar.
Before long, Xiao Fan saw what caused the jade to resonate. His pupils contracted sharply, and disbelief filled his face.
"How can it be!"
What appeared in Xiao Fan's field of vision was an ice-blue spear, and the chill emanating from the spear froze the surrounding void.
This ice-blue spear was none other than the weapon that Xiao Fan had unsealed in the Monster Mountain Range within the Gama Empire.
Once the weapon was released from its seal and awakened, it immediately vanished into the void. Even with Xiao Fan's Dou Zun-level speed tearing through the void, he could not catch up. The two speeds were simply not on the same level.
Faced with such a terrifying weapon, Xiao Fan felt a little regretful at the time, but he didn't expect to see it again so soon.
Xiao Fan was able to return to Zhongzhou so quickly thanks to the teleportation array, but he never expected to see the spear again.
In the void, Xiao Fan looked in the direction from which the spear had flown, and an unbelievable thought arose in his mind.
"Could it be that this spear tore through the void all the way from the Northwest Continent, traversing the entire Dou Qi Continent to reach the Central Continent?"
Xiao Fan's eyes were filled with shock.
Xiao Fan was already aware of the vastness of the Dou Qi Continent. Even for an ordinary Dou Zong expert, the time it would take to travel across the entire Dou Qi Continent at full speed was incalculable.
Given Xiao Fan's current speed at the Dou Zun level, it would probably take him a very long time to travel directly from Zhongzhou to the Jia Ma Empire.
But looking at the ice-blue spear that appeared before him, Xiao Fan could hardly believe that the other party had only taken a few days to travel from the Gama Empire to Zhongzhou.
In Xiao Fan's perception, the ice-blue spear only existed for a brief moment before flying into the distance. However, this short time was enough for Xiao Fan to confirm that this was the spear he had unsealed in the Gama Empire.
Moreover, thanks to the subtle connection between the jade and the stone, Xiao Fan knew that his perception was accurate.
However, upon seeing the ice-blue spear disappear from his sight, Xiao Fan's eyes narrowed, and without the slightest hesitation, he quickly chased after the direction in which the spear had vanished.
Although Xiao Fan's speed was not as fast as the spear, such a terrifying spear naturally left a considerable mark in the void.
Following the lingering chill in the void, Xiao Fan continued his pursuit into the distance.
Now that he had finally discovered information related to Yueyao, Xiao Fan naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch it disappear.
Xiao Fan continued to chase in the void, but as the spear gradually moved further away, the distance between Xiao Fan and it grew farther and farther, and the aura related to it in the void gradually faded.
In addition, the spatial turbulence in the void washed over the marks left by the spear, making the trail even fainter and making Xiao Fan's pursuit even more difficult.
In the void, after an unknown amount of time, Xiao Fan could no longer sense the spear's whereabouts.
Standing still, Xiao Fan frowned, and his vast soul power spread outwards with a roar.
Unfortunately, even with his soul power surpassing the Dou Zun level, he could no longer sense any useful aura in the void.
"Ugh......"
Xiao Fan sighed helplessly, having lost all news about Yueyao once again.
Xiao Fan took out the jade stone from his pocket, looked at the faint white fluorescence emanating from it, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face.
Xiao Fan gently rubbed his palm against the moonstone, sighed, and tore through the void, stepping out from within.
Emerging from the void, Xiao Fan surveyed his current location and discovered that the surrounding energy was incredibly abundant. Even in a place like Zhongzhou, the concentration of battle qi here far exceeded that of ordinary places.
Even compared to top-tier forces like the Starfall Pavilion, the density of battle qi here is not much different.
Xiao Fan gazed into the distance. The surrounding mountains were covered with lush trees, exuding endless vitality. The energy between heaven and earth was gentle, and everywhere was a peaceful and tranquil scene.
Just as Xiao Fan was surveying his surroundings, several figures suddenly appeared in his senses.
Xiao Fan flashed into the air, concealing his aura as he watched several figures flying past below.
Several figures flew past below Xiao Fan, all of them women.
Xiao Fan pondered for a moment as he watched them disappear into the distance, then followed behind them without revealing his presence.
Xiao Fan was shocked to discover that the cultivators below were wearing clothes that resembled the uniforms of a sect, and their movements suggested they were guards patrolling the territory.
The team of five is led by a member whose strength has reached the peak of the Dou Huang realm, while the other four members are all Dou Huangs.
Such strength is naturally insignificant in the entire Central Continent, but Xiao Fan could sense the battle qi within their bodies, which was perfectly integrated.
In other words, the five people below should be something similar to a battalion formation.
Such a combined attack method is not something that ordinary forces can possess. Xiao Fan had just emerged from the void and did not know where he was. Not wanting to get involved in unnecessary conflicts, he did not make any moves that might alert the enemy.
More importantly, Xiao Fan knew that as the conflict between him and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Soul Palace deepened, his portrait had inevitably come into the view of the various high-ranking officials.
If we were to appear rashly, we wouldn't know whether the other party was friend or foe.
Quietly following behind the five, Xiao Fan flew away with them into the distance.
Along the way, Xiao Fan also sensed the changes in his surroundings.
The mountains they traversed were brimming with energy, and Xiao Fan could faintly sense that hidden within the seemingly peaceful forests lurked an unknown killing intent.
Even with Xiao Fan's vast soul power, his perception could only vaguely sense the presence of an array within the mountain range, but he could not find any trace of it.
"This formation is truly amazing..."
Xiao Fan sensed the faint killing intent emanating from the mountains and forests, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
If we only consider the gravitational pull of the formations within this mountain range, they are comparable to the grand formations within the Starfall Pavilion.
Sensing the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere around him, Xiao Fan had a bold guess about this place.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the five people below finally arrived at their destination, and a bustling complex of buildings suddenly appeared in Xiao Fan's field of vision.
"As expected..."
Xiao Fan gazed at the distant buildings, feeling the abundant energy emanating from them and the faint sounds of celestial music, a flash of enlightenment appearing in his eyes.
Long, melodious musical notes, in various rhythms, emanated from the building. Although music resonated everywhere, it did not sound abrupt or chaotic to Xiao Fan's ears.
"Yingu..."
Xiao Fan's gaze fell on a massive mountain peak at the very front of the complex.
There stood a towering mountain peak, its summit seemingly carved away, leaving a smooth, flat surface. On it were two large, powerful characters that read "Yin Gu" (Sound Valley).
Xiao Fan never expected that Yin Gu, which was basically secluded in Zhongzhou, would stumble upon this place by his own accidental encounter.
Xiao Fan's gaze fell on the characters on the peak in front of the Sound Valley. He felt the powerful force and energy contained in them and knew that the senior who wrote the name of the Sound Valley was probably extraordinary.
After the five people below arrived at the Sound Valley, they flew straight ahead, and an invisible wave spread out in all directions.
Xiao Fan looked at the ripples spreading from the entrance of the Sound Valley ahead, but did not dodge. He simply kept his figure hidden and let the ripples pass through the space where he was.
However, Xiao Fan clearly felt that as the ripples spread...
Within the Valley of Sound, the originally peaceful and harmonious sounds suddenly changed, instantly becoming filled with an aura of killing intent.
