A sword, a donkey, and a pot of wine

There was admiration in Zhongli Chen's eyes.

Somehow, he found Xu Tianjiao more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Okay, Jianyi, what should we do next?"

What Lu Qingxue was concerned about was the drought.

Hearing this, Xu Tianjiao turned around.

He suddenly asked Lu Qingxue, "Which is the highest mountain in Meihualing?"

"The highest one is Wangyun Peak!"

Lu Qingxue was stunned by his question, but still answered.

"Please take me there, senior!"

These words were spoken by Xu Tianjiao to Zhong Lichen.

"No problem! If you want to go somewhere high, I can just take you up there. Why would I bother with that?"

Zhongli Chen was puzzled.

"Senior, you may not know that I have already investigated the moisture in Plum Blossom Ridge. It is extracted from underground. To explore underground objects with the Qi-Viewing Technique, one must keep their feet on the ground. However, if one is not at a high point, the line of sight will naturally be obstructed. Therefore, Wangyun Peak is the best place."

Xu Tianjiao explained.

"In that case, I'll take you there!"

Zhongli Chen stepped forward and grabbed Xu Tianjiao's arm with his right hand.

Xu Tianjiao only felt as if she was being carried by a gust of wind.

The body slowly flew up.

"The seniors can just stay here. Since you have powerful cultivation bases, your aura is naturally strong as well. I'm afraid it will interfere with the aura field."

Seeing Lu Qingxue and others were about to fly, Xu Tianjiao hurriedly explained.

"Brother Jian, be careful!"

After Zhong Lichen finished speaking, he pulled Xu Tianjiao up and walked away at a very fast speed.

……

The two figures landed on a mountain peak.

"This is Wangyun Peak!"

Zhongli Chen said.

"Senior, please concentrate and hold your breath. I will use the technique of viewing the qi!"

Xu Tianjiao said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhongli Chen immediately restrained his aura.

At this moment, he looked like a mortal with no cultivation.

Seeing this, Xu Tianjiao didn't waste any words.

The true martial arts knowledge in the body is running at full power.

The "Qi" that was swallowed by this heaven-defying martial art also began to circulate at this moment.

Xu Tianjiao's pupils turned from black to white!

This was his first time performing the Qigong technique.

The world he saw had changed!

The whole world seemed to be shrouded in a layer of hazy fog.

This fog is not ordinary.

Instead, it is formed by the interweaving of various colorful air currents.

There is a red hot air.

The cool blue air.

A thick yellow aura...but the water aura he was concerned about was extremely thin, almost non-existent.

He looked around.

The air currents between the mountains meander like a giant dragon, but appear weak and powerless.

It should have been a place full of water.

Only wisps of water vapor remained, almost dissipating.

It was as if it was being pulled away by an invisible big hand.

Further away.

That once prosperous town.

Now it is also covered by a layer of gloomy atmosphere.

The vitality that emanates from people.

It also became dim because of the drought.

Suddenly, Xu Tianjiao was in a valley in the distance.

Noticed something unusual.

The flow of air there seemed to be distorted by some powerful force.

A strange vortex was formed.

In the vortex, there was a faint black aura surging, constantly devouring the surrounding water energy.

"Could this be the culprit?"

Xu Tianjiao's heart tightened.

He continued to concentrate, trying to see clearly the source of the black aura.

However, at this moment.

A powerful recoil force hit.

Xu Tianjiao felt a darkness before her eyes.

A mouthful of blood spurted out.

"Brother Jian, how are you?"

Zhong Lichen, who was standing by, quickly supported the staggering Xu Tianjiao.

Xu Tian was panting heavily, his face as pale as paper. "Senior, I found an unusual place that may be related to the drought, but the power is too strong for me to see clearly."

"Don't worry, don't worry. Let's rest for a while. We can go back to Plum Blossom Wharf and make a long-term plan."

Zhongli Chen said worriedly.

Xu Tianjiao endured the discomfort in her body.

Pointing in a direction, he asked, "What's that valley about five hundred miles ahead?"

"Five hundred miles? A valley?"

Zhongli Chen frowned and thought hard.

Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and said angrily, "It's the Demon Sealing Valley. What's going on? What does this drought have to do with?"
