Although Bai Sheng found this annoying individual irksome beyond measure, he was not as powerful as him, and there was nothing he could do when targeted right at his doorstep.
Just a few days ago, he accidentally came across a fragmentary Array Pattern from Qiu Feng. The moment he saw the Array Pattern, the murderous and resentful aura forcibly suppressed within him actually subsided significantly.
His intuition told him that if this Array were complete, it would be of great help in solving his own backlash issues.
After sending away the erratic Qiu Feng, Bai Sheng secretly gathered various pieces of intelligence, and finally learned where the Array Pattern came from.
Moreover, having heard that the Abyss Cultivators had a breakout plan, and that the route just happened to pass his intended destination...
Bai Sheng thus wanted to use this troop as bait to cover up his real purpose.
As for whether the breakout could be successful or whether other Abyss Cultivators might perish in the mission, Bai Sheng didn't care in the slightest. He was only after this Array Map.
Now that Ling Hanfei kept the team here, Bai Sheng naturally couldn't slip away quietly. He also wanted to know exactly when they would depart.
Hearing Bai Sheng's query, Ling Hanfei glanced at the youth beside him.
He had also heard about the notorious Devouring Spirit Sect. The Sect Hierarch named Tian Anyu was indeed formidable. It was because of his bowing guard that the Abyss could breach its seal so soon, or else the Abyss wouldn't have come out so early.
For this reason, Tian Anyu's status was much higher than that of an ordinary Abyss Envoy. And Tian Anyu's power was also extremely strong; he directly executed two Ninth Realm Abyss Envoys who did not submit to him, killing the chicken to warn the monkeys.
Therefore, his subjugated Devouring Spirit Sect had a rather special status in the Abyss, especially this Bai Sheng.
Gifted and cruel by nature, possessing the authority of the White Tiger, and coupled with the grand epoch of the battlefield...
Bai Sheng was almost the youngest Abyss Envoy, an existence that even Ling Hanfei would have to look up to. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ⓝovelFire.net
Even though Bai Sheng's power had weakened due to backlash, Ling Hanfei still showed no disrespect. Everyone knew that there would come a day when Bai Sheng would definitely recover his power.
Although Ling Hanfei did not know why this figure, who should have been recuperating in the Abyss, suddenly took an interest in this mission.
"Last investigation, and if there are no problems, we depart."
Although his intuition made him somewhat concerned, Ling Hanfei had no choice now but to steel himself and push on.
Ling Hanfei clapped his hands and a gust of invisible breeze appeared in his palm.
"Snow-Drinking Star Ancient Sparrow?"
Bai Sheng looked somewhat surprised. He did not expect Ling Hanfei to possess such quality items.
The Snow-Drinking Star Ancient Sparrow carried the Dragon Bloodline; even if one were to use Divine Sense to investigate during bright daylight, it would remain undetectable, and at night it would become even more indiscernible, blending with the starlight as if it had disappeared from this world altogether. Furthermore, the bird's strength was no small matter, comparable to a Seventh Realm Cultivator at Great Perfection.
Bai Sheng had long heard of this bird's renown but did not expect to encounter it here.
"Yes, using this bird for investigation will ensure complete infallibility."
Ling Hanfei nodded, threw his hand out, and the invisible and formless breeze disappeared in an instant, traversing ten thousand miles away.
Although Bai Sheng was surprised in his heart, he just observed for a few moments before closing his eyes again. It was the perfect opportunity to let the Snow-Drinking Star Ancient Sparrow scout for any abnormalities at his intended destination.
Elsewhere, within a forest at the boundary, the light of two Arrays suddenly lit up in the jungle. Two Demon Clan Cultivators with fox ears atop their heads appeared from the Array and instantly dropped into a defensive stance, vigilantly scanning their surroundings.
Once they ascertained there was no problem, the two fox Cultivators glanced at each other, and in unison, they extended their right hands and slapped the ground beneath them.
Two identical Arrays emerged from their palms, intersecting and overlaying, quickly expanding to cover thousands of miles below the surface, bringing the conditions within miles into their view.
"North side, west side, no problem."
"South side, east side, no problem."
The two spoke almost simultaneously.
After ruling out the possibility of an ambush, the two exchanged a glance and nodded to signal that all was clear.
After setting up two concealment Arrays to hide their forms and movements, a flash of light from their Storage Rings revealed materials needed to set up a large-scale Array.
"Hurry up with the setup, and let the army from the camp be teleported over."
One fox Cultivator said in a low, urgent voice.
The other fox Cultivator responded without lifting their head.
The ten fingers, laced with threads of Spiritual Power, pulled and manipulated the materials on the ground, gradually forming a large-scale Teleportation Array.
They were Demon Clan Array Masters, instructed by Jiang Fufeng to use the Transmission Array to scout the surroundings; if all was clear, they would activate the large-scale Array to silently bring the troops over for an ambush.
But while the two were busy setting up the Array, a pair of sharp eyes was surveilling the vast forest from the Nine Heavens.
The Demon Clan Array Masters were clever, considering the possibility that the Abyss Cultivators might be lurking, thus they used Arrays to investigate. Even if the enemy employed Arrays to conceal themselves, there would still be a response to their own Arrays.
Unfortunately for them, because of Ling Hanfei's caution, the Abyss Cultivators had not entered the forest at all. The only visitor was the Snow-Drinking Star Ancient Sparrow.
A bright glow flashed within the Ancient Sparrow's eyes, scanning for any suspicious presence.
With its Dragon Blood lineage, even though its perception was not as acute as a True Dragon's, it was still far superior to that of an ordinary Cultivator.
The Snow-Drinking Star Ancient Sparrow suddenly fixed its gaze and began to hover over a certain spot in the forest canopy.
