Chapter 217: Discovery

Chapter 217: Discovery

Guang Hong Daoist clearly remembers that over a hundred years ago, he was just a Refining Qi stage cultivator. One of his senior brothers in the sect was also his blood elder brother, and he needed to slaughter a large number of fresh demon beasts to cultivate a side door technique.

His elder brother was not wealthy and couldn't afford to buy enough spirit stones to purchase demon beasts for cultivator training. Therefore, this daring disciple of Forest Spring Watch decided to venture into Demon Wind Gobi to seek wild demon beasts and complete his cultivation.

He was aware of the dangers in Demon Wind Gobi, so he didn't plan to venture deep inside. Instead, he intended to try his luck on the outskirts and hunt down some isolated demon beasts.

According to his premeditated plan, he was ready to enter Demon Wind Gobi from this region. However, after parting ways with Guang Hong Daoist, he disappeared without a trace.

Later, Guang Hong Daoist tried to trace his whereabouts using a mystique based on their bloodline connection. He eventually confirmed that his blood elder brother had died nearby.

Guang Hong Daoist knew his elder brother very well, and he possessed many life-saving methods. In the peripheral zone of Demon Wind Gobi, it would be almost impossible for mentally deficient and low-ranking demon beasts to defeat his elder brother.

Thus, Guang Hong Daoist spent a great deal of time and effort investigating this matter. However, despite many years of hard work, he had not gained any significant findings.

Even after reaching the Foundation Building stage, Guang Hong Daoist continued to be preoccupied with this matter. The passing years turned this issue into a lingering burden in his heart.

As a Foundation Building cultivator, Guang Hong Daoist had access to unprecedented resources and methods to mobilize them. Finally, through persistent investigation, he accidentally discovered more than ten years ago that Twin Success Valley cultivators occasionally appeared and disappeared in this region.

It turned out that this place was the secret base of Twin Success Valley, their final refuge shelter, and the sect's most significant secret. Normally, not many Twin Success Valley cultivators would appear here, and it could be as infrequent as once in ten or eight years.

However, more than ten years ago, when Twin Success Valley decided to train Gold Core Daoist Masters wholeheartedly, they began using this refuge shelter to secretly transport resources inside in order to preserve the sect's inheritance after any potential exposure.

Twin Success Valley never imagined that someone had secretly monitored this place for several hundred years. The power of hatred was truly formidable.

Guang Hong Daoist discovered the dealings of Twin Success Valley cultivators. Given the typical ways of the Cultivation World, he could imagine that his elder brother had accidentally stumbled upon the secret of Twin Success Valley and became a witness to their crimes, which led to his silence.

At that time, Twin Success Valley was powerful, and even though Guang Hong Daoist knew that they were the enemies who killed his brother, he was at a loss and could only hold onto the hatred in secret, waiting for the right opportunity.

Within moments, several Foundation Building cultivators, including Guang Hong Daoist, had flown to Meng Zhang's side. More than ten flying boats from the sky patrol rushed towards the location.

Ruan Dadao of Golden Blade Sect expressed some dissatisfaction, saying, "It's just two missing sandworms, why make such a fuss? Who knows if they encountered other demon beasts or simply got lost? Claiming to have discovered the whereabouts of Twin Success Valley remnants seems a bit far-fetched. Even if one wants to gain merit, there's no need to go to such lengths."

As Ruan Dadao finished speaking, Zhao Jiudou arrived, controlling the drill God of the Earth shuttle, which landed from the sky.

Meng Zhang hadn't informed Zhao Jiudou, but Zhao Jiudou had been in contact with Aunt Jin, Ruan Dadao, and others.

Upon receiving Aunt Jin's message, Zhao Jiudou immediately abandoned his search area and rushed here at top speed.

After five days of fruitless searching, he was already anxious. Now that he heard there was news of a discovery here, regardless of its authenticity, he hurried to see for himself.

"Everyone, allow me to take the lead and explore the way," Zhao Jiudou said.

Before anyone could respond, the drill God of the Earth shuttle drilled underground, heading in the direction the sandworms vanished.

Aunt Jin was preparing to use Earth Escape Spell to follow underground when she suddenly noticed Guang Hong Daoist's expression.

With a serious face, Guang Hong Daoist remained silent, showing no intention of acting.

Aunt Jin's heart went cold, and she immediately stopped her spellcasting.

Everyone present, including the seemingly crude and reckless Ruan Dadao, were all astute individuals. Seeing Guang Hong Daoist's expression, they stopped themselves from following Zhao Jiudou immediately.

Currently, Forest Spring Watch was the elder child, and the county magistrate was inferior to those who controlled the funds. Even if they wanted to curry favor with Flying Swan Sect, they couldn't afford to offend Guang Hong Daoist of Forest Spring Watch. For those who knew how to handle situations, Guang Hong Daoist was quite satisfied with their reactions.
