Chapter 1456: Chapter 1457: Ground-motion Sensor

Though the actions of the Demonic Path seemed to lack any order, Su Chengyu had come to understand that everything they did was driven by strong intent.

The commotion at the Demon Exorcism Conference was like this, and so was the disaster at the City of a Thousand Peaks. Su Chengyu was certain that their targeting of Bai Qiu and Ao Tian bore the same true purpose.

Indeed, Bai Qiu nodded and said, "Yes, I also find it strange how these people managed to discern our identities. We hardly revealed any of our Divine Skills, and logically, even if they noticed us, they should have only seen us as ordinary members of the Demon Clan."

"Northwest Continent."

The sudden four words spoken by Bei Tang Qian Xiao drew everyone’s gaze.

Bai Qiu was somewhat skeptical, but Su Chengyu paid close attention to the train of thought Bei Tang Qian Xiao provided, "You mean to say, the Blood Clan of the Northwest Continent also has some unclear and ambiguous connection with the Demonic Path?"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao nodded, "It is highly probable. The Demonic Path has been dormant for a century, and even they have managed to form an alliance with humanity, which never cooperates with others. Partnering with the Blood Clan on the Northwest Continent is definitely not a difficult task."

"But haven’t the Blood Clan and the various nations of the Northwest Continent established deep connections already? Why would they need to ally with the weaker Demonic Path?"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao shook his head, "That remains unknown."

"When intentions, desires, and acquisitions align, there is too much in this world that can change one’s stance and attitude, bringing people together."

"Mengmeng?"

Su Chengyu suddenly turned his head toward Chen Mengmeng, who had spoken out of inspiration.

Chen Mengmeng herself was startled, then scratched her head, "That phrase seems to be something my master left me before I descended the mountain."

"Master..."

Su Chengyu bit his lower lip and narrowed his eyes.

It seemed impossible for Cang Qing True Master to know that Mengmeng would encounter Bai Qiu or himself upon leaving the mountain; the phrase shouldn’t have been meant for them.

But thinking of Chen Mengmeng’s uniqueness, perhaps her master really had foreseen something?

Su Chengyu had not delved deep into Qing Cheng Taoism; though he had thought about studying divination more intensively, his talent in that area was not bad.

However, divination was exceedingly complex and mystical, requiring long periods of accumulation and comprehension. Su Chengyu admitted that he was nowhere near even the threshold of mastery in this field, let alone audacious enough to speculate on what Cang Qing True Master might have foreseen.

Regardless of whether this phrase was specifically left for them by Cang Qing True Master, it indeed could be one of the answers to their current situation.

"The scope of the Demonic Path’s influence might extend far beyond our imagination."

Saying this, Su Chengyu then turned to Bai Qiu, "Was Ao Tian captured alive here in the Qinling?"

"Yes, I remain in the Qin Mountains to find Ao Tian. The methods of those from the Demonic Path are very peculiar. I could sense some residual traces of the Demon Clan on them. They targeted Ao Tian and me; I’m worried they might have other contingencies in place."

Upon hearing this, Su Chengyu did not take it lightly. He closed his eyes and concentrated, reaching deep into his Sea of Consciousness to find the thread of the Soul Contract with Ao Tian.

The existence of a Soul Contract, while not like the Earth Core Lotus that can communicate directly across thousands of miles as long as within the same realm, can still foster a connection between the two parties within a certain distance. The reason he previously recognized Bai Qiu was largely due to this Soul Contract.

However, as Su Chengyu’s Divine Sense spread unceasingly, enveloping the entire General Ridge completely, he still could not find Ao Tian’s presence.

Recovering his composure, Su Chengyu shook his head, his face expressing difficulty. Bai Qiu anxiously interjected, "Can’t you find him? Ao Tian hasn’t already..."

"No."

Su Chengyu interjected affirmatively, cutting off Bai Qiu’s speculation: "They targeted you specifically because of your identity as one of the Four Divine Beasts. As such, they would definitely not let you die easily. The current inability to contact probably indicates a blockade by some earthly and heavenly prohibitions."

"But..."

"There are no buts!"

Su Chengyu spoke with unwavering determination, not allowing Bai Qiu to continue.

After a moment of stunned silence, Bai Qiu immediately grasped the intention behind Su Chengyu’s words and clenched his fists, saying, "Right, no buts. Ao Tian must still be alive. That guy would definitely not perish in a place like this."

Seeing that Bai Qiu’s emotions had stabilized, Su Chengyu sighed in relief and turned to Bei Tang Qian Xiao, "Is there a secret realm near General Ridge that leads to another minor world?"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao shook her head: "Although Qinling is situated within the North Five Provinces, its nature is unique, and its internal geography is extremely complicated. Not just our Bei Tang Family, but even the entire Xia Country dares not say they know all of Qinling’s secrets. Its mystery is second only to the Hundred-Thousand Great Mountains within the boundaries of Xia Country."

The Kunwu Realm within the Kunwu Mountain Range is an Immortal Mountain, and the existence of Kunwu Realm has made it a sacred site for all cultivators in Xia Country to gain experience.

The Hundred-Thousand Great Mountains, on the other hand, is the most infamous perilous area in Xia Country. For over a century since the country’s founding, the Hundred-Thousand Great Mountains have always remained a place where neither ordinary people nor cultivators dare to tread lightly.

And the Qinling lies between them, where it’s common knowledge that many secret blessings and realms have been left behind by predecessors, yet those who dare delve deep to explore are few.

This instant put Su Chengyu in a dilemma; he must rescue Ao Tian irrespective of the relationship between them.

Since the Demonic Path has set their sights on Bai Qiu and Ao Tian, they must have some plots against them given their special identities.

Su Chengyu dared not contemplate if he did not swiftly rescue Ao Tian and the Demonic Path succeeded, he might one day meet Ao Tian on the battlefield by his own hands, a prospect Su Chengyu absolutely could not accept.

"Big brother, let me give it a try."

Chen Mengmeng’s words surprised everyone, who all looked at her in astonishment.

Even Bai Qiu opened his mouth with a face full of doubt: "What does someone in the Golden Core Realm like you have to do with this commotion?"

"Little White!"

Feeling that Bai Qiu’s words were somewhat harsh, Su Chengyu immediately frowned and interjected.

Hearing this, Bai Qiu’s gaze instantly shifted aside, muttering softly, "I just don’t want him to meddle in vain. In this Qinling, it’s already a problem to safeguard oneself at the Golden Core Realm, yet he still wants to help..."

Undisturbed by these words, Chen Mengmeng turned to Bai Qiu and said softly, "Sister Bai Qiu, I know that my own strength will only hold everyone back, but Sister Bai Qiu, you saved my life. I also want to contribute my modest efforts to the current dilemma."

Her words were neither humble nor arrogant, and the unwavering strength of Chen Mengmeng’s Dao Heart truly earned Su Chengyu’s respect.

Among the people Su Chengyu knew, only two could be worthy of comparison.

Ye Qingci and Long Xuan; even Lin An, though immensely talented, would probably fall half a step short when it came to Dao Heart.

"Mengmeng, I understand your feelings, but you really won’t be able to help much with this matter."

Chen Mengmeng said nothing, but took out a special, round Magic Artifact. A gray sphere inlaid on a semi-circular frame looked like a model of a globe. However, the gray sphere lacked any patterns, and most importantly, with Su Chengyu’s Eye Power, he couldn’t discern the grade of this Magic Artifact at all.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Bei Tang Qian Xiao speculated, "Is this the Secret Treasure Geomotion Meter from Mount Qingcheng?"
