Chapter 91: Sound Transmission Talisman (Seeking collections! Seeking recommendations!)

Glancing at the Blood Corpse beside him, the man in the black robe gave a faint, cold sneer. From beneath his black robe, he extended a deathly pale hand, devoid of any blood, and brushed it lightly over the corpse.

"That young cultivator from just now—how is it that I have never seen him before? Which sect does he even belong to? With the strength of the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, he was actually able to severely wound you time and again!"

The Blood Corpse the black-robed man was stroking was the very one that had fought Zhang Nuo. Looking at the spot that had been pierced through by Zhang Nuo's Flying Sword, a wave of doubt rose in his heart.

Before entering the Trial Ground, he had already grasped the strength of the Four Great Sects on the Tianjiang Plain. He knew clearly which sect had powerful cultivators, what their cultivation levels were, and what Magic Treasures they used. The young cultivator who appeared today, however, was someone the black-robed man was seeing for the first time.

Just as the man in black was pondering, a ball of fire fell from the sky. The fire was only the size of a fist, but it flew with great speed, reaching his side in the blink of an eye.

Seeing the fire, the man in black was immediately delighted. Without a second thought, he made a single-handed beckoning gesture toward it. With a "swish," the fire shot into his hand. He applied slight pressure with his five fingers, and the fire burst open with a soft sound. The moment it burst, a voice entered his ears.

"Gu Yu, come to the location I have indicated immediately!"

This short sentence made a hint of ferocity appear on the face of the man in black, and his gaze immediately swept toward a certain direction.

"It seems the Senior Brother has already found the location. Heh heh! Cultivators of the Nanxuan Sect, Beixuan Sect, and Wuji Sect, just you wait! I believe that within two years, none of you will be walking out of the Trial Ground!"

The man in black was none other than Gu Yu, the master of this Blood Corpse! The fire he had received was indeed a Sound Transmission Talisman. It was unknown what the Corpse Refining Sect was plotting, but upon seeing the fire of the Sound Transmission Talisman, Gu Yu appeared extremely excited.

Standing in place for a moment, Gu Yu patted his Storage Bag with one hand. A ball of black light shot out, and after a few transformations, it turned into a massive object, landing on the ground with a loud boom.

This object was over a zhang long and half a zhang wide, pitch-black all over. It was, shockingly, a massive coffin. The moment the Black Coffin appeared, the surrounding air was immediately filled with the scent of death, and wisps of yin energy seeped out from within.

The man in black pointed at the Black Coffin with an expressionless face. In an instant, the lid of the black coffin opened. Inside the black coffin, it was densely packed with wriggling 'Blood Guiding Insects'; looking at the quantity, there were at least ten million! This coffin was like a nest for the 'Blood Guiding Insects'.

Seeing the Black Coffin appear, the Blood Corpse beside Gu Yu did not hesitate for a second and immediately walked into the coffin. The moment the corpse entered the coffin, countless 'Blood Guiding Insects' swarmed up, submerging it in an instant.

Gu Yu's expression remained unchanged, viewing all of this as if it were nothing. He formed a Dharma seal with his hands, and the lid of the Black Coffin closed on its own. The next moment, with a flash of black light, the coffin turned into a beam of light and dove into the Storage Bag.

After finishing all this, the black-robed cultivator flicked his sleeve, and a Flying Magic Tool was summoned. Jumping onto the tool, with a flash of light, Gu Yu flew off in a certain direction. Before long, only a black dot remained on the horizon!

Judging by his flying speed, which was extremely fast, he was not concerned at all about the consumption of his Spirit Power. The matter he was going to attend to this time seemed to be of great importance!

………………

Somewhere in the dense forest, Zhang Nuo followed behind Zhuge Qing. The two walked one after the other. Judging by the young girl's demeanor, she was not afraid of Zhang Nuo launching a sneak attack from behind, walking in front with complete ease and confidence, occasionally telling him things about the Tianjiang Plain.

At first, Zhang Nuo had some wariness toward the girl, but as time passed, he discovered that she was cheerful and talkative, showing not the slightest bit of suspicion toward him, a Loose Cultivator who had just joined.

Gradually, Zhang Nuo relaxed his vigilance, and his conversation with Zhuge Qing increased, allowing him to gain a good understanding of some past events concerning the Nanxuan Sect.

The two had been traveling forward for about two hours when suddenly a figure emerged from the dense forest ahead. After Zhuge Qing saw the newcomer's appearance, she smiled faintly and said:

"Senior Brother Chu, you must have been waiting anxiously!"

"Young Sect Master, what are you saying? With such a major matter entrusted to me, how could I..."

The cultivator who emerged from the forest looked to be only in his thirties. His short hair stood almost entirely on end, and he had an old-fashioned, stern look on his face, possessing quite the air of a senior brother!

However, when his gaze swept over Zhang Nuo, his words came to an abrupt halt halfway through.

"This is..."

Shifting his gaze toward Zhuge Qing, the cultivator surnamed Chu asked with great confusion. He had never seen the young boy behind the girl before, and he was certain in his heart that the other party was definitely not from the Nanxuan Sect.

"Let me introduce you. This fellow Daoist Zhang Nuo has just joined our Nanxuan Sect!"

Hearing the girl's words, Zhang Nuo cupped his hands toward the cultivator surnamed Chu.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, this is my Nanxuan Sect disciple, surnamed Chu, given name Budong!"

Upon hearing this name, Zhang Nuo almost laughed out loud. Chu Budong! This name was too strange! However, out of politeness, he forced himself to hold it in.

After listening to Zhuge Qing's introduction, Chu Budong nodded at Zhang Nuo with a smile on the surface, but inwardly, he was extremely astonished. Where did the Young Sect Master recruit this cultivator from? Within this Trial Land of the Four Sects, there were only people from the Four Great Sects. Could it be that someone from one of the other sects had defected?

Seeming to have guessed Chu Budong's thoughts, Zhuge Qing, with her back to Zhang Nuo, moved her red lips slightly and transmitted her voice to him:

"Do not pay any mind to this matter; in the future, you will naturally know how he joined!"

Hearing this, Chu Budong did not change his expression, nodded slightly, and then laughed loudly:

"Since Fellow Daoist Zhang has joined our Nanxuan Sect, he is naturally one of our own. In a few days, when we go to kill the 'Two-Headed Snake', I will have to witness your divine abilities!"

Although Zhang Nuo did not know what the 'Two-Headed Snake' was, he still nodded lightly.

"Perhaps Fellow Daoist Zhang does not yet know about the 'Two-Headed Snake'. It was my oversight; I forgot to tell you. During the last Four Sects Trial, I heard from our sect's cultivators who went in that there is a 'Two-Headed Snake' demonic beast in the Trial Ground. Three hundred years ago, this beast was already a Four-tier demonic beast. Its cultivation is truly not to be underestimated. Back then, four Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivators from our sect joined forces, yet they were unable to defeat it, and what's more, three of them were lost!"

Hearing this, Zhang Nuo's heart suddenly stirred! A Four-tier demonic beast that even four Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivators were no match for—its level of terror was self-evident!
