Chapter 271 The Soul Comes
After breaking through the barrier, the scene inside made Zhou Ling subconsciously hold his breath.
The various mud and sand mixed with the sea water made it difficult for people to open their eyes.
The master simply closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to search quickly.
Suddenly, a faint smell of blood came from the sea.
Zhou Ling had a bad premonition in his heart, and his master followed the bloody smell, getting closer and closer, and the blood became thicker and thicker, so thick that it dyed the sea water red.
Half of a broken fish tail floated past the eyes of Zhou Ling and Long Aotian.
Zhou Ling, who was hiding in the Qiankun House, couldn't help but tremble with his hands.
This fish tail looks so familiar to her.
The owner of the fish tail was chatting and laughing with her not long ago, but now... now his head and tail are separated!
Zhou Ling was able to recognize it because it was very special. The tip of its tail was dyed a little pink, which made it very recognizable.
But now it is broken into two pieces and floating in this bloody sea, which is enough to show that the extremely beautiful mermaid sister may no longer be there...
His spiritual sense did not find anything else, but Long Aotian did not give up. He took out the small bell again and shared its current location with Sheng Yuan.
If nothing unexpected happens, an accident will happen...
The small bell in the shared location was now moving away from them at a very fast speed.
It is currently unclear whether the person who took the bell away was someone else or Sheng Yuan himself.
Long Aotian did not rush to chase after him. Instead, after making sure that there was no other danger around, he quickly sent a message to his little disciple.
"Is there any magic that can find people?"
When in doubt, use external tools first!
"It's true!" Zhou Ling answered promptly.
Although she didn't know much magic now and was a real magic beginner, using magic to find people was basic magic. Her mother had taught her, and she had tried it several times and succeeded.
Hearing the answer he wanted to hear, Long Aotian breathed a sigh of relief, waved his sleeves, and released the little disciple in the Qiankun House.
"Looking for Sheng Yuan! The other bell is in his hand, but now, the position of the bell is moving rapidly. I'm not sure if it's him who holds it. Is he in trouble now? Can you use magic to help confirm it?"
"Let me try."
Zhou Ling reached out and took the bell.
Searching for people through magic actually involves a bit of metaphysics. It mainly involves using the objects that the other person has touched and the aura left behind, and then mobilizing the magical energy in one's own blood to perform a kind of tracking technique.
Zhou Ling couldn't explain the specific principle. That thing can only be understood, not expressed in words.
According to the method my mother taught me, and just as I had tried many times before, as soon as the spell was uttered, the magic energy began to move.
Many people have come into contact with this bell, and many auras have been left behind. But Zhou Ling and Sheng Yuan were not strangers, and they quickly locked onto the one that belonged to Sheng Yuan.
The consciousness seemed to pass through the realm of reality and illusion, reaching the other end of the breath and appearing on the other person's body.
Sheng Yuan, who was running away in a hurry, also noticed something strange. He did not force the special feeling out of his body in time because he felt a little familiar. And this feeling was not malicious, so he ignored it.
As for Zhou Ling, when she opened her eyes, she saw the surrounding scenery and what was happening that Sheng Yuan could see with his eyes.
"Master, help me!"
After his consciousness was withdrawn and returned to his body, the first thing Zhou Ling said was to ask for help from his only reliable master.
"Say!"
Long Aotian looked solemn, holding the sword tightly in his hand, and he looked intimidating without even being angry.
"Our previous speculations have always been wrong! The soul of the demon clan that escaped has actually traveled thousands of miles to come here! Master, you just said that the position of the bell has been moving rapidly. Now it can be basically confirmed that the bell is on Senior Sheng's body, and he is running for his life! The soul of the demon clan is here in person and is chasing him!"
"Come in!"
After knowing that the situation was critical, Long Aotian didn't waste any words. He opened the Qiankun House again and motioned Zhou Ling to go in.
The reactions of the master and mother in critical situations seem to be completely opposite. The master is usually a chatterbox, but at times like this, his reaction seems to be more like the name Long Aotian. He becomes cold and decisive, without any hesitation, and even speaks very little, to the extent of being frugal with words.
As for mother, she is a complete antonym of the original word. She usually speaks incoherently, but when it comes to the critical moment, she can pronounce words clearly, steadily, accurately and ruthlessly, and she will talk a lot, expressing her meaning clearly and in great detail.
At this time, Zhou Ling was huddled in the Qiankun House, watching her master performing a secret technique that she had never seen before.
Although she had known for a long time that her master's spiritual roots were related to space, she was still shocked when she saw for the first time that her master, with his own spiritual roots and talents, had figured out a way to transfer space on his own without any guidance from predecessors.
Although this kind of unique skill mostly relies on formations, the key to its activation still lies in the master's own spiritual talent.
The master set up a densely packed and extremely complicated space formation in mid-air. Until the very end, he lightly tapped his fingertips, and the chaotic spiritual power of the space activated the formation. Both the master and she saw a flash before their eyes and turned around.
After experiencing countless times of phantom shifting, Zhou Ling has become somewhat immune to the distorted and reorganized feeling of traveling through space.
What's more, using this method to transfer spatial position is much gentler than the method of Apparition. Although there is a feeling of dizziness and unsteadiness, it is not too serious.
After landing, Zhou Ling woke up faster than his master. He immediately became alert and checked the surroundings.
I discovered that the master was indeed a great man, a real genius. The position he moved to happened to be within the route of the bell.
The Qiankun Room was locked by the master, and Zhou Ling couldn't get out, so he banged on the door anxiously.
But the master, although he was the one who invented this move, obviously had not yet adapted to this intensity of spatial position change. At this moment, he was half bent over and almost vomited to death in the sea water.
The location they were in at the moment was exactly the direction where Sheng Yuan was about to run towards.
The master was still bent over, trying his best to control vomiting, but Zhou Ling could already see the surprised expression on Sheng Yuan's face through the external device.
His face was filled with fear, but the next second, he glanced around his master, and when he found no trace of Zhou Ling, he smiled calmly, as if he was relieved.
"Stop vomiting and meet the enemy!"
Now that help has arrived, there is no need for Sheng Yuan to continue running away.
