Chapter 13632 View Harvest

Deep in the heart of the mountains, there is an extremely secret place. It is surrounded by dense primeval forests. Tall old trees rise from the ground, and their thick branches intertwine with each other, blocking out the sun and dividing the sky into countless small pieces.

The terrain in this area is extremely complex, with jagged rocks of various shapes. Some boulders pierce the sky like sharp swords, with their sharp edges exposed, as if they are about to pierce the sky; others crouch on the ground like beasts, with a fierce momentum, as if they are ready to pounce on their prey at any time, which makes people shudder.

These strange rocks are cleverly integrated with the surrounding mountains and forests, forming a natural barrier that isolates this secret place from the outside world.

Ling Xiao had arrived here long before. Relying on his profound attainments in formations, he had carefully arranged concealment formations, illusion formations and defensive formations here in advance.

The concealment formation is like an invisible net, dense and tight, which conceals the breath of this place tightly. Even the most sensitive perceiver will find it difficult to catch any trace from it, as if there has never been any breath of life on this land.

The illusion array is ever-changing, creating all kinds of illusory scenes. Stepping into it is like being in a bizarre world. Endless mazes will instantly surround people, making them lose their way and unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.

The defensive formation was even more indestructible, like an invisible fortress, quietly guarding this mysterious place, and any force that tried to break in would be ruthlessly blocked out. Even if there was an uninvited guest who tried his best to find him, it would be difficult for him to be discovered under the heavy obstacles of these layers of formations.

Suddenly, a slight spatial fluctuation quietly emerged, and the air seemed to be gently twisted by an invisible big hand, making a subtle "buzzing" sound, as if the space was humming under the influence of this force. Then, Ling Xiao's figure slowly emerged like a ghost.

His face was slightly pale and a bit tired, his hair was messy and stuck to his sweaty forehead, and a few strands of hair swayed gently in the breeze. There were still traces of battle on his clothes, which were torn in many places, revealing the lining stained with blood. The dried blood was particularly dazzling in the sun, telling of the fierceness of the battle.

But his eyes revealed an excitement and anticipation that was hard to conceal, it was the joy of victory after a difficult battle, and a hopeful vision for the future, shining brightly on his tired face.

He was not in a hurry to check the coveted treasures taken from Zhengqi Hall. Instead, he paused for a moment, slowly closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. His chest swelled with the inhalation, and then he slowly exhaled, as if to expel the fatigue and tension of the battle from his body.

He scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he slowly took out a jade token that emitted a faint blue light from his arms. The jade token had a warm texture and felt cool to the touch, as if it condensed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

It is engraved with mysterious runes, which flicker with faint light, as if telling of its extraordinaryness. Each rune contains mysterious power, as if waiting to be awakened.

Ling Xiao's fingers gently brushed over the jade token, circulating the spiritual power in his body, and established a mysterious connection with the jade token. The spiritual power was like a thread, slowly flowing into the jade token, and the light of the jade token became brighter and brighter. After a moment, Jin Ruoxi's familiar voice came from the jade token.

"How are Zhu'er and the others?" Ling Xiao's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety that was difficult to conceal, and his slightly furrowed brows were full of concern for Xiao Lianzhu and the others. His eyes revealed a hint of nervousness, as if he was waiting for the judgment of fate. It was a deep concern for the safety of his relatives and friends, which made his heart beat faster unconsciously.

"Don't worry, Brother Ling. Xiao Lianzhu and the others have been properly hidden, and no one knows about it." Jin Ruoxi's voice came clearly from the jade token, with a sense of relief, as if a huge rock pressing on her heart had finally fallen to the ground.

"Also, I really want to thank you for allowing the three great masters of my Money Gang to return safely. Otherwise, I can't imagine what the situation would be like."

Jin Ruoxi was filled with relief. Recalling the days and nights she had been worrying about the safety of the three masters, she could still vividly remember the anxiety and uneasiness. Now that they were safe and sound, Jin Ruoxi felt extremely complicated, with shock and gratitude intertwined.

She could never have imagined that Ling Xiao was so capable that he not only uprooted the Zhengqi Hall and turned the other side upside down, but also allowed the three masters she sent to return to the Jinqian Gang unscathed. This gratitude was like the warmest ray of sunshine in winter, shining straight into her heart and warming her whole body.

"Don't be polite to me. Since you have chosen to help me, I will not let you sacrifice in vain." Ling Xiao's tone was steady and sincere, and his firm words revealed a reassuring power. "It is not convenient for me to return to the city now. When I return, I will definitely bring you something to express my gratitude. After all, I have gained a lot from the Righteousness Hall this time."

Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and the treasures he had taken from Zhengqi Hall appeared in his mind. The corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted up, revealing a confident smile. His eyes flashed with a firm light, as if he was solemnly promising Jin Ruoxi that he would live up to her help.

"Then I'm looking forward to it!" Jin Ruoxi laughed heartily, her laughter was clear and pleasant, and full of anticipation. She seemed to have seen Ling Xiao coming back with a dazzling array of precious treasures, and her heart was immediately filled with joy, and she also had more expectations for the future cooperation with Ling Xiao.

"Well, if there is any disturbance in the city, please contact me immediately." Ling Xiao warned seriously, and then slowly put down the jade token in his hand. As he moved, the faint luster on the jade token quickly faded, as if hiding the secret of this conversation from anyone.

He carefully put the jade token back into his arms, and looked into the distance. His deep gaze seemed to penetrate the mountains and look towards the direction of Zhaixing Tower City. At this moment, he was secretly thinking about the next plan in his heart, and he repeatedly considered every detail in his mind to be fully prepared for the upcoming challenge.

After confirming that Xiao Lianzhu and the others were safe, Ling Xiao's nerves, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed like a loosened bowstring.

He gently closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His chest swelled up with the inhalation, and then he slowly exhaled, as if to expel the fatigue of the battle and the excitement in his heart. While calming down, he secretly thought that he should take a good inventory of the "trophies" taken from Zhengqi Hall and then devote himself to training. (End of this chapter)
