Even the God of Quick Transmigration Needs an Assessment

It must be that Han Zi dislikes dryness!

Lowering her eyelids, a shadow fell over her raven-black eyelashes. She wasn't that stupid; after a moment's thought, she knew there must be someone else involved.

It's impossible that he could disappear one minute and reappear in front of so many disciples the next. It's just that no one expected that Qingyun Sect, as the head of the five major sects, would have so many spies.

If you were able to infiltrate the secret realm, then did you manage to infiltrate the higher-ups of the sect? We'll have to discuss that with our master when we get back.

Xuan Shen is a well-known know-it-all in the sect. He knows a little bit about everything, so if you need anything, you can just ask him.

She set up a barrier to envelop her and Xuan Shen, blocking out sound and sight, took out a storage bag and handed it to Xuan Shen, explaining the situation to him.

Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams.

After some calculation, Xuan Shen realized that this was a formation. Based on the twelve earthly branches, the formation stones were placed in twelve locations within the secret realm, including the most important formation eye.

The fact that the tokens had no effect when crushed was also likely caused by this formation. Apart from the eight pieces that Moon Mist found, there were still four pieces and the core of the formation that had not been found.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Han Ziyan, who was standing nonchalantly in the crowd, and clicked his tongue in disapproval. "What a good actor."

Xiao He, Yao Qing, and their two underlings immediately went out upon hearing the danger signal flare. They flew towards the location on their swords, only to be intercepted halfway by a man in black robes. Compared to the enormous demonic beast, one person was much easier to deal with.

The four of them worked together to suppress the man in black robes. Xiao He swung his sword, and a surge of sword energy slashed towards the man in black robes. The brim of his hat flew off, and they saw the person under the black robes.

It is moon fog.

Instead of immediately suspecting Moon Mist's identity, they couldn't help but think of the scene they had witnessed in the cave.

Is the black-robed man now Yuewu himself, or Han Ziyan who has transformed into Yuewu's appearance?

They were also secretly observing Han Ziyan. Seeing that he still maintained his usual refined and elegant demeanor, a strange feeling arose. Xiao He tightly gripped the recording stone, not daring to look anymore.

Xuan Shen and Yue Wu reappeared. Xuan Shen did not intend to look for other array stones. He believed that capturing the leader first was the most important thing.

The enemy is in the shadows while they are in the open. It's not good to scatter the group. It's best to act together. Either we destroy the array's core and get out, or we can only wait for the secret realm to open by itself in a month.

After calculating the location, he led a group of people there. When they arrived, they looked around and found nothing but trees and grass. They used their spiritual power to make the array stones and the array eye resonate with each other. They could sense it, but they just couldn't find it.

He glanced at Han Ziyan out of the corner of his eye, but she still didn't react, as if she was full of confidence and not afraid of being exposed.

Aren't you afraid of being exposed?

Did they hide it using some method?

Yuewu was getting annoyed. She wasn't a very patient person, and since she had already searched around, she might as well just ask the other party directly.

He exchanged a glance with Xuan Shen, who reluctantly agreed. However, he still felt that it was essential to plan ahead before acting and not to act rashly. Someone like Yue Wu was still too young, and it was fortunate that he, as her senior brother, was there to keep an eye on her.

If his senior brother hadn't told him to take good care of Yuewu, he wouldn't have gone along with her like this. Sigh, I miss my senior brother.

Xuan Shen quietly activated her spiritual power, and Yue Wu swiftly and decisively used her magic. The original owner was, after all, the chosen one of the world's destiny. Apart from her tragic background, her talent was top-notch.

With her top-grade ice spirit root and crystal-clear immortal bones, it's safe to say that if it weren't for the chaos caused by the demon race, she would definitely have ascended to immortality in a hundred years.

The original owner was able to become a disciple of Xuan Du thanks to this spiritual root. She was not as good as Xuan Qing and Xuan Can in swordsmanship, but she had great personal insights into magic. Xuan Du accepted the original owner as a disciple because they were both ice spiritual roots.

Frozen!

Raising his arm, pale blue spiritual energy swirled around him, followed by sharp ice spikes that shot up and climbed toward the disciples. The new disciples, who had not yet experienced the cruelty of the world, were filled with confusion. The smarter ones stepped back, but it was no use; they were instantly frozen into ice sculptures.

As for those spies, they were incredibly experienced. They reacted as soon as they sensed the murderous aura. The ice spikes landed on the ground and spread outwards in an instant. Before anyone who came into contact with the ice spikes could react, the bone-chilling ice climbed up their feet.

A sense of danger swept over him, and almost instinctively he reacted by retaliating and breaking the ice spikes. Han Ziyan got up to dodge, but immediately realized what was happening and withdrew his hand, letting his body freeze and fall to the ground.

Five disciples, after their counterattack, immediately realized it was a trap. They exchanged glances and came up with an idea. The five of them fled in different directions, but they were caught in the air by vines that appeared out of nowhere. The thick vines tightly bound them, leaving them powerless to fight back and unable to even use their spiritual energy.

He fell heavily to the ground, glaring at Yuewu through gritted teeth, his expression a mixture of shock and fear. He demanded, "How did you find out?!"

They had always been cautious and prudent, remaining hidden in the outer gates for years, and embodying moderation in every word and deed. They finally managed to carry out a major mission, but their plan was exposed, and they couldn't figure out what went wrong no matter how hard they tried.

Moon Mist silently unfroze the person, not wanting to reveal that she knew the plot in advance and that there were demon spies involved.

Seeing the other disciples resume their activities and blink at her, feeling the intense gaze, she suppressed the wildly upturned corners of her mouth, put her hands behind her back, raised her eyes to gaze into the distance, and spoke in a profound and unfathomable tone.

"Do you think you've hidden it well?"

He turned smugly to the person who asked the question, "If we knew that your every move was under the sect's watchful eye, any schemes or tricks you plotted would be immediately detected."

Finally, she concluded, "You guys are still too green."

These words startled Han Ziyan. Although he had prepared for the possibility of being exposed, he was still alarmed and gritted his teeth, remaining silent.

My thoughts are in disarray, with several questions jumping back and forth in my mind.

When was it discovered?

Found what?

How much do you know about the plan?

Of course, he wasn't the only one terrified; four other people were also in a state of shock.

Xiao He unconsciously stroked his storage ring, staring blankly at the five people bound like dumplings. These five people were clearly the same five who had been respectfully facing Han Ziyan outside the cave.

Even when he was frozen into an ice block, his five senses were still intact. He saw the demonic aura emanating from the five people when they fought back. As a disciple of a noble family, he had some understanding of demonic and monster auras.

His gaze swept over Han Ziyan, whose expression was unusually indifferent. His reaction was too calm; it wasn't just a matter of suspicion. He was already convinced that Han Ziyan definitely had a problem.

Judging from how much respect those five people showed Han Ziyan, he must be at least a spy chief. We should report him as soon as he leaves.

He finally got something on us.

Xuan Shen rolled his eyes at Yue Wu, who was pretending to be profound. "This little girl is really putting on an act." Without wasting words, he asked directly, "Where is the array's core?"

The man chuckled, still defiant despite being bound and unable to move, "Don't you know everything? Why are you asking me? If you're so capable, find it yourself, hahaha~"

Their arrogance was so outrageous that even the disciples on the side couldn't stand it anymore. They frowned deeply. They had already fallen into the hands of these spies, yet they were still so arrogant. Did they have a backup plan?

Xuan Shen wasn't going to tolerate these people. He summoned his spirit sword and pierced one of them through the heart with an arrow. The man's eyes widened. This tactic of killing the chicken to scare the monkey worked very well, instantly changing the expressions of the remaining four people. Their arrogant demeanor vanished in an instant, and fear crept onto their faces.

They felt they were still useful and dared not touch them. As long as they lived, they would have a chance to escape. Even if the mission failed, they would still receive a lot of rewards when they returned to the demon race, but they had to live.

Who would have thought that the handsome and talented second disciple of the Immortal Venerable Xuandu would be so cruel, killing someone before he could even finish speaking?

The bound woman was terrified, and every now and then she would glance at Xuan Shen wielding his spirit sword, which was full of threat.

She quickly spoke, afraid he would chop her down with his sword, "I said, the array's core is at the heart of the secret realm. To get out, you either have to wait for the secret realm to open from the outside, or you have to destroy it."

Xuan Shen vaguely sensed something was wrong. The secret realm would open when the time came, so why go to such lengths to trap a group of naive disciples inside?

He suspected they had ulterior motives.
