Chapter 50

After chasing the two people through the forest for a while, Qin Feng finally lost them completely.

For this, Qin Feng could only sigh helplessly and complain loudly about why he couldn't fly.

Actually, this couldn't be blamed on Qin Feng. After reaching the Human Profound Realm, except for those with special constitutions or those who cultivated special techniques, Body Cultivators could only fly with the help of tamed mystic beasts. At most, they could only briefly hover in the air using their physical strength. True flight based on physical strength would only be possible at the Earth Profound Realm.

However, it was very different for Dharma Cultivators.

Powerful Dharma Cultivators could use mystic qi to control some mystic artifacts for brief flights even at the Mortal Profound Realm. After advancing to the Human Profound Realm, they could basically fly for extended periods using their artifacts.

Flying in the sky and running on the ground were simply not in the same league in terms of speed. At the very least, flying in the air wouldn't be hindered by the terrain.

Fortunately, Qin Feng knew the general direction the two people were flying in. Losing sight of them wasn't a problem as long as he was heading in the right direction; he could still find them.

After advancing to the Human Profound Realm, with the Divine Sense, "Taia Forging Sense" had reached the second level, Qin Feng's Divine Sense's perception and range had expanded several times over. This was like adding wings to a tiger for Qin Feng. The forest that had once been like a maze to him was suddenly solved.

Therefore, Qin Feng determined the southwest direction and continued to rush forward for about the time it took to burn an incense stick.

Suddenly, the scene brightened, and the view ahead became much more open.

Qin Feng looked around, surprised!

He didn't expect to find a mountain within a mountain here.

Surrounded by mountains, there was a small, black, tomb-like hill. This hill gave a very uncomfortable feeling, shrouded in thick red mist and emitting a mysterious force that blocked the Divine Sense's probing. On the hilltop, a dilapidated ancient temple could be faintly seen.

"That temple?"

Qin Feng just glanced at it, and suddenly felt a darkness in front of his eyes. He then found himself in a blood-red world, where strange blood formed a huge vortex, as if trying to suck his soul in!

Fortunately, this feeling lasted only an instant. With a mental effort, Qin Feng quickly regained his clarity.

It seemed that "Taia Forging Sense" had played a crucial role in stabilizing his mind at this critical moment.

Now, Qin Feng increasingly felt the importance of "Taia Forging Sense" to him. Just reaching the second level had such an effect; if he could fully cultivate it, what kind of powerful realm would his soul reach?

He could only say that his father had truly had great foresight!

This mountain was heavily shrouded in yin energy and exuded a sense of mystery and evil, giving Qin Feng a very dangerous feeling.

This feeling was very uncomfortable, a latent fear of unknown danger.

When he looked again, Qin Feng deliberately avoided the dilapidated temple on the hill. This time, he clearly saw two people in white robes walking up the hill.

One man and one woman, they were the two people from the forest.

It seemed that for caution, the two had abandoned flying and were walking up the hill. After all, the hill was small, and for cultivators like them, it was just a few steps away.

Just as Qin Feng was hesitating, the man suddenly turned around and smiled at the place where Qin Feng was hiding. Then a voice whispered in his ear:

"Since you have been following us all the way, why hide? Why not show yourself and go up the hill together?"

Qin Feng was stunned!

He realized his experience was still too shallow.

He didn't know what method the man in white used to discover him.

However, since his whereabouts were already exposed, he might as well be more relaxed. He smiled, stepped out of the shadows, and in a few leaps, appeared in front of the two. He then took a good look at them.

It was too dark earlier, and Qin Feng hadn't seen their true appearances. This time, with the dim moonlight, he finally saw the two clearly.

He was amazed and astonished!

The two people in front of him were truly outstanding!

They were dressed identically in loose white silk robes, which were likely the uniform of their sect. They both carried long swords, and on their left chests was an ancient "Shu" character.

The man was tall and well-proportioned, with a white silk sash tied around his waist and a peculiarly shaped white jade pendant. He had long hair tied with a white silk ribbon, with a heroic and spirited appearance, long and gentle eyes that gave a very friendly feeling.

He was handsome, elegant, and naturally so, without any pretense.

The woman was beautiful, with a slender and graceful figure. Her eyebrows were finely shaped like willow leaves, her lips were like a touch of cherry red, and her ears were like jade pendants. Her eyes were especially beautiful, with long lashes and clear, bright eyes that exuded a gentle and refined aura.

She gave Qin Feng a feeling of being graceful and dignified, elegant but not overly charming, and cold but not unapproachable.

What a transcendent aura!

Only a cultivator from the first immortal sect of Yunqi Kingdom, Shujian Mountain, could have such a transcendent aura and such attire.

What surprised Qin Feng even more was that upon initial sensing, he found that the woman's cultivation was roughly the same as his, around the first stage of the Human Profound Realm. The man's cultivation was clearly much higher, and although Qin Feng didn't know exactly how much higher, he conservatively estimated it to be at least the fifth stage.

The key was that the man looked to be in his twenties, but his actual age was less than forty!

This made Qin Feng look at Shujian Mountain's strength with even greater respect!

Shujian Mountain, the first immortal sect of Yunqi Kingdom, truly had many talented young cultivators.

While Qin Feng was observing the two, they were also observing him.

Qin Feng had the typical tall and well-proportioned build of the Azure Dragon Clan. With his rugged and sunny face and easy-going personality, it was hard to think of him as a bad person.

Moreover, the fact that he had reached the Human Profound Realm at such a young age made the two people's eyes flash with surprise.

Fortunately, the two were well-versed and, upon seeing the large "Qin" character embroidered on Qin Feng's chest, they understood.

The Qin family, the darlings of heaven, the pride of the heavens!

The young man in white nodded in approval and politely clasped his hands, saying, "I am named Bai, a disciple of Shujian Mountain in Yunqi Kingdom. This is my junior sister, Fang Xinyi. May I ask how to address this fellow cultivator?"

His tone was neither hurried nor slow, very gentle, and it felt like a warm breeze.

The demeanor of a great sect, deeply touching Qin Feng.

"I dare not. I am named Feng, a disciple of the Qin family in Luoyang Town," Qin Feng replied with a slight bow.

"Luoyang Town?" Clearly, Zhan Bai had never heard of this small place, but he quickly recovered and continued, "So you are Brother Qin Feng from the Qin family. I have heard much about you!" Although it was a polite remark, Zhan Bai said it sincerely, with no trace of pretense.

Qin Feng, having lived two lives, was naturally cautious.

But this Zhan Bai gave him a strong feeling of being a rare upright person. If he could act so naturally, he would be a reincarnation of a great actor.

The woman in white, although she hadn't spoken, had been observing Qin Feng's every move with her beautiful eyes. Although there was still a hint of doubt in her eyes, she clearly took Zhan Bai as the lead, showing that she knew her place.

After the formalities, Zhan Bai changed the subject and looked directly at Qin Feng, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, the person hiding in the forest earlier was Brother Qin, and you have been following us since then. What is your purpose?"

"That's right, it was me! However, I just happened to pass by and, by chance, obtained some opportunities, which coincidentally led to my advancement! As for following you two..." Here, Qin Feng touched his nose and frankly said, "It was just curiosity!"

In the forest, Qin Feng had already guessed that Zhan Bai knew of his presence. So, when asked, he admitted it frankly. However, he still kept the two corpses a secret, as the fact that he could absorb the essence of flesh and blood through his bloodline soul was too shocking. The fewer people who knew about it, the better.

"Advancement? You mean you suddenly advanced in the forest?"

Zhan Bai's eyes were filled with surprise, and the girl, Fang Xinyi, even opened her small mouth slightly. However, Zhan Bai, being Zhan Bai, after a moment of thought, smiled and said, "Alright, I believe you!"
