Chapter 355: Four Cultivators

Zhang Nuo flew down along the way and discovered that the current Xianhuan Continent was already completely different from before. Not far apart, a town would appear. Most of these towns were built by some major power for the purpose of allowing passing cultivators to rest, and incidentally, to earn some Spirit Stones!

Three days later, Zhang Nuo's figure appeared on the street of a small town. After paying just over a dozen Low-grade Spirit Stones, Zhang Nuo obtained the qualification to enter this town! However, before entering the city, he used the Nine Dragon Sword Case to restrain the aura on his body to the appearance of the Golden Core Middle Stage! This way, he would not arouse the suspicion of the cultivators in the city!

Walking on the main street, watching the crowds bustling inside each shop, many cultivators were purchasing items they needed! Zhang Nuo sighed slightly! In just a few short decades, the Xianhuan Continent had been developed to the current state! Perhaps in a few hundred more years, the entire continent would be completely developed!

Walking to the entrance of a teahouse, Zhang Nuo stopped his steps. After a slight turn of thought, he walked into the teahouse. This place had all kinds of characters; it was definitely a good place to inquire about news!

Just as he approached the teahouse, a waiter ran over. Zhang Nuo did not waste words with him, just ordered a pot of Spirit Tea, and then found a table in the corner and sat down!

Before long, the Spirit Tea was delivered. Zhang Nuo savored the fragrance in the tea, his ears pricked up slightly, and he began to listen to the discussions of the cultivators in the teahouse!

In this teahouse, there were dozens of tables, and almost more than half had cultivators sitting and chatting. Very quickly, Zhang Nuo obtained a lot of useful news, such as which Xian Mountain had been occupied by which sect, who had fallen in the great battle for the Xian Mountain, and who had found a treasure!

For a time, these messages filled Zhang Nuo's ears! After carefully noting these messages in his heart, Zhang Nuo's gaze swept across the teahouse out of boredom. Suddenly, there were three people sitting at one table. Among these three, one was an old man who looked to be over seventy years old with graying hair, yet his face revealed a faint sense of malice, and a yellow robe was particularly eye-catching!

Beside the yellow-robed old man sat a young woman with a pretty face. This woman looked to be twenty-eight or twenty-nine, wearing a dark red palace dress, and a pair of fox-like eyes were slightly squinted, as if she were thinking about some problem!

And opposite the old man sat a middle-aged man of about forty years old, with a head of messy hair tied up with a silver silk ribbon, his face pitted and scarred like the skin of a toad, which made people feel very uncomfortable to look at!

However, the cultivation of these three people had all reached the Golden Core Middle Stage realm! Their divine abilities were clearly not weak! None of this made Zhang Nuo feel suspicious! The only thing that made him feel something was wrong was that he could not hear the sound of the three people's conversation at all, as if they had deliberately cast some kind of Sound Isolation Restriction!

His expression changed slightly, and Zhang Nuo put down the teacup in his hand! Good things are not hidden from people! If it is hidden from people, it is not a good thing. The more careful the other party was about others hearing their conversation, the more interested he became!

Immediately, Zhang Nuo quietly extended a wisp of Divine Sense, spreading it toward the table of the yellow-robed old man and the other two. With the strength of his Divine Sense at this time, he passed through the Sound Isolation Restriction set around the three of them without any effort at all! The three of them did not notice it in the slightest!

He only heard the yellow-robed old man sigh slightly and say:

"I don't know how Brother Zhao is preparing? Whether we can have a harvest this time all depends on his Array!"

"Fellow Daoist, do not worry. Brother Zhao's attainments in Arrays far exceed those of us! I believe this will not be difficult for him! We just need to wait quietly!"

The dark red palace-dressed young woman opened her charming eyes suddenly and said with great confidence.

"I think Fairy Li is right! Brother Yi, you can just put your heart in your stomach!"

After the messy-haired man gave a faint smile, he also comforted the yellow-robed old man.

At this time, the yellow-robed old man surnamed Yi still had his brows tightly locked, his face uncertain! Hearing this, Zhang Nuo became even more curious. These three seemed to be waiting for someone to appear! Listening to their meaning, they were going to do a big thing! However, thinking about it carefully, this matter might not be able to see the light of day!

Just as Zhang Nuo was hesitating, another cultivator walked in from outside the teahouse. This person was wearing a gray Daoist robe with a few strange Fowen embroidered on the front and back. Zhang Nuo just glanced at it and did not understand the meaning of the Fowen! However, the Daoist's cultivation was only at the Golden Core Initial Stage level.

At this time, the yellow-robed old man surnamed Yi, upon seeing the incoming Daoist, immediately had a happy face, and then quickly waved at him! The gray-robed Daoist saw it and walked straight toward the three of them!

Just as the Daoist's buttocks sat down, the yellow-robed old man immediately asked somewhat impatiently:

"Brother Zhao! How did the matter go?"

"Brother Yi, rest assured! Zhao has always been airtight in his work; the materials needed for the Array have all been bought! Just give me three more days, and I will be able to refine that 'Hunyuan Great Array'!"

The gray-robed old Daoist took a sip of tea, and after a strange smile appeared on his face, he opened his mouth to speak.

"I said so! Brother Zhao is indeed reliable in his work!"

The messy-haired man heard this and chuckled happily a few times. After the yellow-robed old man finished listening, he also let out a long breath!

"Since that is the case, let's go find a place to refine the Array now!"

"Good!"

It seemed that the yellow-robed old man was extremely anxious! He didn't even wait for the gray-robed Daoist to finish the tea in his hand before wanting to leave this place! Although the Daoist was a bit helpless, he agreed!

"Hehe! But Brother Yi, if this matter succeeds, how shall we distribute those things?"

The Daoist put down the teacup in his hand, his expression changed suddenly, and he said very seriously.

"This..."

The yellow-robed old man's expression changed slightly, and he did not answer immediately, but cast his gaze on the other two! At this time, the dark red palace-dressed young woman spoke up!

"For this action, we mainly have to rely on Brother Zhao's Array! So naturally, Brother Zhao should take the lion's share! You take four! We each take two of the remainder, what do you think?"

Seeing that the young woman was very sensible, the Daoist smiled and nodded, and did not say anything more, rising first and walking out of the teahouse! The other three followed closely behind, also following in a hurried manner!

Zhang Nuo frowned slightly, feeling that the cultivation of these three was not too high, but the matter they were plotting must have some other mystery! Immediately, he placed two Low-grade Spirit Stones on the table as tea money and hurried out of the teahouse!

Arriving on the street, he swept his Divine Sense around and immediately discovered the four people who had just walked out of the teahouse! With a turn of his feet, Zhang Nuo followed them at a distance that was neither too far nor too close!

Along the way, the four of them remained silent. After about the time it takes to eat a meal, the four stopped in front of a guest house! After a brief discussion, they walked inside!

Zhang Nuo also walked into the guest house after a moment! At the counter, he just asked a few casual questions and found out the room where the yellow-robed old man and the other three were staying. He immediately chose a room close to the four of them and moved in!

After arriving at the room, Zhang Nuo first checked the room, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he reached out and cast a few Restrictions, simply sealing the room, and then swept his Divine Sense toward the room where the four were staying!

Although they had also set Restrictions in their room, to Zhang Nuo, they were like nothing! As soon as his Divine Sense probed into it, he saw that all four were sitting cross-legged on the ground meditating, and they were not moving at all!

After withdrawing his Divine Sense with a slight feeling of surprise, Zhang Nuo pondered for a moment, his figure flashed and he sat on the bed, also beginning to regulate his breath and meditate.

Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, the sky darkened. Suddenly, Zhang Nuo violently opened his tightly closed eyes, his expression solemn as he once again extended his Divine Sense! Sweeping toward the room where the four were, he saw that except for the gray-robed Daoist surnamed Zhao, the other three each had their hands forming a Dharma seal. At the same time, spiritual light flickered on their bodies, and layers of ripples like water waves spread toward the surroundings. It looked like they were performing some kind of divine ability!

Just as Zhang Nuo was observing with full concentration, suddenly his Divine Sense was forced back by a mysterious power. His figure stood up abruptly, and his face suddenly became ugly!

With the strength of Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense, he was actually forced back; it seemed that the secret technique the three of them performed together must be strange! Since he could no longer continue to investigate, Zhang Nuo waited patiently in the room! He repeatedly pondered the actions of the four people in his heart! He always felt it was very strange!

If Zhang Nuo's cultivation had not advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage, he would not have been so bold as to interfere with matters that had nothing to do with him. But today is different from the past; Zhang Nuo's divine abilities were such that even if he encountered an existence of the same rank, he would have no fear at all! Not to mention, the things these four wanted to obtain might also be of great use to him!

Anyway, with nothing to do, Zhang Nuo secretly planned to figure out the reason for it!

In the blink of an eye, three days later, when Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense probed toward the room where the four were again, the strange power from before had disappeared.

He saw that in the gray-robed Daoist's hands were more than a dozen Array Disks, and the sweat that had not yet been wiped from his face was flowing down his cheeks continuously!

"This Hunyuan Great Array is finally refined! As for the next step, how we do it will all be arranged by Brother Yi!"

Wiping the sweat from his face with his hand, the gray-robed Daoist said with a faint smile.

"Hehe! With Brother Zhao's Array refined, this matter is considered half successful!"

The yellow-robed old man surnamed Yi gave a hehe laugh, and the clouds of worry that had covered his face due to his previous anxiety disappeared. After pondering slightly, he continued to speak:

"A thousand miles away from here, there is a canyon named: Jinpu Gorge! Calculating carefully, there are still about ten days left before the cultivators of the Giant Spirit Pavilion will transport the goods through there. As long as we can set up this Array early! By then, even if Yang Huzi leads the team himself, we will definitely be able to take it!"

Upon hearing the Giant Spirit Pavilion, Zhang Nuo's heart shook! Truly, one searches high and low for something, only to find it without any effort! He was just worrying about having no clues about the Giant Spirit Pavilion, and they actually delivered themselves to his doorstep!
