232: The curiosity of the Jade Pool Saintess, deep within the Gale Forest

An ordinary-looking Girl in White Robes stood on a giant tree branch, observing Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang.

She was none other than the Yaochi Saintess, Liu Ruoxi.

After leaving the Jade Pool Holy Land party, Liu Ruoxi had chosen a random direction to explore the Secret Realm.

Not long ago, she noticed that the raging winds in a certain part of the Forest of Raging Winds were rapidly diminishing.

Thinking there might be some Opportunity, she came here to investigate.

“Eh? What's that?”

Liu Ruoxi suddenly saw Su Yun's actions as he absorbed the raging winds.

“Could it be some kind of powerful Wind-Attribute Saint Physique?

Is that why he can directly absorb the raging winds?”

“Interesting. I actually still can't see through his Physique.”

Liu Ruoxi's beautiful eyes flickered, suddenly feeling very curious.

“Whatever, I don't know where to go anyway, so I'll just follow him!”

With that thought, Liu Ruoxi cast an illusion. Combined with the powerful spiritual energy in her body, her spiritual energy fluctuations slowly faded away as her figure instantly vanished, merging with the surrounding environment.

Even if someone passed by, it would be difficult to detect her presence.

Furthermore, to prevent being discovered, she refrained from using her Divine Sense to probe that Taixuan Holy Land Disciple.

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Where are we going now?”

Luo Qingshuang's red lips moved slightly as she asked softly.

“Wait, let me investigate first.”

Su Yun released his Divine Sense and quickly located Chu Jingfeng.

According to Chu Jingfeng's life script, the gang wind spirit crystal was deep within the Forest of Raging Winds, but the specific direction wasn't indicated.

Therefore, he had to know which direction Chu Jingfeng was heading.

Only then could he follow that path to find the gang wind spirit crystal.

Just then, he discovered another figure hiding on a giant tree branch several miles behind him.

If he didn't possess the Heavenly Illusion Immortal Pearl and powerful Divine Sense, he likely wouldn't have noticed someone hiding on that branch at all.

“That is?”

Su Yun glanced back.

“Holy crap, isn't that the Yaochi Saintess?

What is she doing there?”

“Maybe she's just passing through.”

“Senior Sister Qingshuang, let's go that way!”

Su Yun pointed in a direction and spoke to Luo Qingshuang.

“Alright.”

Luo Qingshuang nodded in agreement.

The two turned into streaks of light and instantly vanished from the spot.

At this moment, on the giant tree branch, Liu Ruoxi murmured with some confusion:

“Did he discover me?

That's impossible!

Maybe I'm overthinking it.

I'll keep following to see!”

A moment later, Liu Ruoxi also turned into a streak of light and flew in the direction Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang had left... Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang soon arrived near Chu Jingfeng's group.

At this time, Chu Jingfeng also sensed Su Yun's arrival.

He instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

“Su Yun... why is he here?”

“Is he going to beat me up again?”

Chu Jingfeng recalled the scene from three days ago when he was heavily injured by a single punch from Su Yun.

He now had a psychological shadow whenever he saw Su Yun.

Although that day's injuries had healed quickly,

he still couldn't let go of the fact that he was beaten down by a Junior Brother at the Nascent Soul Stage Level Two Realm.

“Senior Brother Chu, what's wrong?”

Seeing Chu Jingfeng's expression was off, several Junior Brothers nearby quickly asked.

“It's nothing, let's go explore somewhere else!”

Chu Jingfeng steadied himself and flew off in another direction.

“Senior Brother Chu, didn't you say you sensed something good in this direction?”

One Junior Brother asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Maybe my senses were wrong.

It's not in that direction!”

Chu Jingfeng said hurriedly.

He then led the group toward a different direction.

“Eh, he actually ran away?”

Su Yun found it a bit strange.

Maybe Chu Jingfeng was afraid of being beaten up!

However, the direction Chu Jingfeng was heading earlier should be where the gang wind spirit crystal is.

His Divine Sense clearly sensed that the intensity of the raging winds was higher in that direction.

As Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang flew deeper into the Forest of Raging Winds, the raging winds became increasingly dense.

“Wall of Extreme Cold!”

A massive amount of extreme cold Qi surged from Luo Qingshuang, and a Spiritual Energy Barrier formed from the Power of Extreme Cold appeared around her body.

The power of the surrounding raging winds was growing stronger; without a Spiritual Energy Barrier, one would soon be injured by the winds.

She looked at Su Yun with some admiration.

The current raging winds were at least ten times more powerful than before.

Yet Su Yun still hadn't deployed a Spiritual Energy Barrier; only a faint Protective Spiritual Light flickered on his body as the surrounding raging winds were directly absorbed by him.

After ten breaths, Su Yun suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The surrounding raging winds had vanished.

“Senior Sister Qingshuang, be careful.”

Su Yun held the Flowing Cloud Sword, looking around warily.

Luo Qingshuang didn't dare to be careless either; the Extreme Cold Spiritual Energy within her began to circulate as she held her spirit sword and scanned the surroundings.

A piercing sound suddenly rang out.

“It's a Divine Sense attack!”

Su Yun felt a Divine Sense attack with the intensity of the Soul Transformation Tenth Level striking toward them.

He immediately deployed a Divine Sense barrier, surrounding himself and Luo Qingshuang.

Then, a blast of raging wind even more violent than before swept in.

A dark shadow suddenly flashed past.

“Flowing Light Sword Art!”

Su Yun swung the Flowing Cloud Sword, and Three-Colored Sword Lights struck toward one direction.

In an instant, it hit the dark shadow.

The dark shadow was instantly blown into ashes.

“What incredible speed.”

Luo Qingshuang's expression turned solemn; she realized her Divine Sense hadn't detected what had just attacked them at all.

“It seems to be some kind of Yao Beast.”

Su Yun discovered that this Yao Beast could merge with the raging winds, similar to some kind of Wind Spirit.

They hadn't appeared earlier when they weren't deep in the Forest of Raging Winds.

But after going deep into the Forest of Raging Winds, these Yao Beasts appeared.

A moment later, raging winds surged from all directions.

Hundreds of dark shadows flashed by.

“Raging Wind Birds!”

“Junior Brother Yun, be careful.”

“Raging Wind Birds are Yao Beasts born within the raging winds.

They usually move in groups.”

“They are skilled in Divine Sense attacks and manipulating raging winds, and their speed is extremely fast!”

Luo Qingshuang's red lips moved as she spoke in a cold voice.

Holding her spirit sword, the extreme cold Qi around her had already transformed into thousands of Extreme Cold Sword Qi.

A layer of frost slowly condensed on the trees for dozens of miles around.

“Nine Heavens Thunder Control Art!”

Purple lightning flickered on Su Yun's body as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for hundreds of miles gathered into the Nine Heavens Thunder.

At that moment, the Raging Wind Birds directly launched an attack at the two.

It could be clearly seen that each Raging Wind Bird was at least dozens of zhang in size, covered in black-gray feathers with powerful raging winds swirling around them.

With a thought from Su Yun, the Nine Heavens Thunder struck directly at the pouncing Raging Wind Birds, and in an instant, a violent explosion rang out.

Dazzling purple lightning illuminated the dim sky.

Luo Qingshuang also launched her attack, manipulating thousands of Extreme Cold Sword Qi to strike in all directions.

Although many of the Raging Wind Birds were at a higher Realm than her,

her Extreme Cold Sword Qi still dealt massive damage to them.

Many Raging Wind Birds were directly split in half, both halves frozen into ice sculptures that shattered upon hitting the ground.
