Chapter 98: Pursuing All the Way

  Riding on the Lingzhou, Zhangshan and others searched and cleared out some small groups of demon thieves.

  Pursuing and clearing all the way, they have already penetrated deep into the western part of the Sunset Wilderness.

  Half a month later, the three of them roughly determined the location of the Thirteen Nights' lair and decided to ignore the scattered small teams of magic thieves on the periphery, planning to make a direct attack.

  "Five thousand miles away, there is a Flying Horse Lake. Their old nest should be there too。 We'll fly there now and sneak in from the ground when we reach the outskirts。"

  Fang Yiru took a look at the map of Yu Jian and then said.

  Zhang Shan and Ling Yuwei had no objection, so Lingzhou adjusted its direction slightly and flew straight towards the target.

  When they were still a thousand miles away from Flying Horse Lake, the three of them discovered that something was amiss on the ground. Many large and small groups of demon thieves seemed to be fleeing in disarray from the direction of Flying Horse Lake.

  "Something might have happened on their side," Zhang Shan guessed.

  "It can't be that another fellow disciple has taken over there, and these demon thieves have escaped from here?" Ling Yuwei also said in surprise.

  "It's very likely we're too late, but shall we go and take a look anyway?"

  Fang Yiru thought so and stopped the Lingzhou to ask about the two people.

  "Now it's all gone, and I'm afraid there isn't even any soup left."

  Zhang Shan said gloomily, but suddenly received a message from Ling Bei, which lifted his spirits.

  "He pointed in the direction of the right and said: 'Fang Shijie, fly towards that side, it seems like there's a big one over there.'"

  Fang Yiru sensed it, but didn't find anything unusual. However, due to her trust in Zhang Shan, she drove the Lingzhou towards the direction he indicated without any hesitation.

  "Slow down, don't go too fast, it's too close and afraid of being discovered by the other party. That is, maintain this speed."

  Zhang Shan followed Bi Ling's instructions and spoke to Fang Yiru at the same time.

  "What exactly did you discover, little brother?" Ling Yuwei couldn't help but ask.

  "I sense that someone over there is fleeing on a flying spirit device, and the aura is very similar to those demon thief leaders we've encountered before. It's likely that this is a fish that has fallen into our net."

  Zhang Shan replied while communicating with Ling Bei.

  "What's your spiritual awareness range now? I've scouted thirty miles ahead and haven't found anything?" Fang Yiru asked, looking at him in surprise.

  At her current level of cultivation, if she focuses her divine sense in one direction, the maximum range is thirty miles. If she senses all directions simultaneously, it's less than ten miles.

  She had just extended her divine sense to the extreme of thirty miles ahead, but didn't find any signs of the enemy. After carefully searching for a while and getting nothing, she could only withdraw her divine sense back.

  Divine sense induction consumes soul power, and the farther the distance of induction, the more soul power is consumed. Therefore, unless necessary, warriors will not maintain the state of divine sense induction for a long time.

  Zhang Shan's current spiritual sense range is roughly equivalent to Fang Yiru, but after Bi Ling's consecutive upgrades, his sense range has reached 120 miles.

  According to the idea that Ling just conveyed, there is a lotus-shaped flying spirit device flying forward rapidly in the air hundreds of miles ahead.

  When Fang Yiru asked about his spiritual sense range, Zhang Shan hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

  "En, the straight line is about 100 miles away. The spiritual artifact outside of 100 miles has been escaping all along. I'm afraid the opponent is a high-ranking expert in the True Martial Realm, so we can't get too close. Fortunately, the speed of the opponent's spiritual artifact is not as fast as Master Sister's Ling Chou."

  The two women had gained his trust after spending time together, so as long as they didn't expose Bi Ling's secret, he didn't want to hide everything from them. As for this sensing range that far surpassed his peers, he could attribute it to his own martial soul.

  "Junior brother, your sensing range has reached a hundred miles? How is this possible?" Ling Yuwei exclaimed in great surprise.

  When a warrior breaks through a major boundary, the range of their divine sense will increase exponentially.

  If Fang Yiru's current Lingwu Jiuchong resonance is thirty miles, then when advancing to the first level of Zhenwu Realm, the resonance range can be doubled to sixty miles, and afterwards, each small boundary promotion will have a slight increase.

  According to Zhang Shan, he can now sense things a hundred miles away, which is the distance that one can sense in the fourth stage of Zhen Wu's realm. This naturally shocked Ling Yuwei greatly.

  "I think it's because my martial soul has some bonus effects in this regard, after consecutive promotions, the range of perception has been greatly improved, but I need to ask you two senior sisters to keep it a secret."

  Zhang Shan smiled and said, although this statement is not entirely true, it's also not a complete lie. Strictly speaking, the range of Biling's perception is equivalent to his own perception.

  The various attributes of Wu Soul have always been the greatest secret of martial artists, and when they heard him share this secret with them, the two women were naturally overjoyed.

  Fang Yiru and Ling Yuwei both nodded with a smile, making Zhang Shan feel that his relationship with them had taken another step forward.

  An hour later, Zhang Shan signaled Fang Yiru to land the Lingzhou: "The flying spirit device in front flew down to a small oasis. After we go down, let's sneak over quietly."

  After landing, Fang Yiru put away the Lingzhou and followed Zhangshan's lead, unfolding his body method to dash forward.

  A moment later, the outline of an oasis appeared in front of them, and the three stopped behind a sand dune.

  "I don't know what level the other party is at. If their level is too high, we're no match for them. It's like hitting a stone with an egg." Fang Yiru said after a moment of contemplation.

  "Why don't the two of you wait here first, and I'll sneak into the Green Oasis to check out the situation," Zhang Shan suggested.

  "No way, it's too dangerous." Ling Yuwei shook her head in opposition.

  "Don't worry, sister. I've recently cultivated a technique to conceal my breath, and as long as he doesn't see me with his eyes, I shouldn't be discovered," Zhang Shan explained.

  During this period, Zhangshan and the two women chased and killed demons together. In their spare time, Zhangshan also sorted out and comprehended his own skills, discovering that another use of the Introspection Technique was to perfectly conceal one's aura, blocking the enemy's spiritual scan.

  Fang Yiru looked at him with a suspicious gaze: "This kind of thing can't be joked about, let's work together. At most, we can't beat the Lingzhou and escape, didn't you say that his spiritual instrument isn't as fast as my Lingzhou?"

  "I'm absolutely not deceiving you, you've forgotten that I hid my cultivation at the beginning, it's the effect of this Introspection Technique. If you don't believe me, use your divine sense to perceive it."

  Zhang Shan said as he started to operate the Introspection Technique, and the two women each sensed it for a moment. Indeed, although their eyes could see Zhang Shan, they felt as if he didn't exist.

  "Your technique is indeed remarkable, shielding your spiritual sense from scanning is almost perfect. In that case, it's worth a try."

  Fang Yiru was taken aback for a moment before agreeing with Zhang Shan's idea.

  Zhang Shan crouched down, sticking close to the ground as he crept forward, his breathing and movements extremely cautious. Bi Ling was also carefully sensing the situation ahead.

  Cautiously sneaking into the oasis, he slowly moved towards the location indicated by the stele spirit.

  Before long, a deserted and dilapidated small village appeared in front of us, with faint sounds coming from one of the rooms.
