o have nine orifices."However, the Ghost Clan's cultivation methods aren't too different from ours. In that case, using ghost qi to condense a cave heaven should be feasible!"After much deliberation,...Although the sudden appearance of this shadowy figure was unexpected, since Ginger Cloud entered the Military Martial Hall, he had always maintained a high level of vigilance.

Besides, he had anticipated that the other party would search his soul, so he was not alarmed at this moment.

Moreover, although the three figures before them seemed mysterious and enigmatic, when their divine consciousness entered Jiang Yun's mind, Jiang Yun immediately judged that they were merely at the cultivation level of a Heavenly Venerable.

Therefore, Jiang Yun wove together his own memories with those of Zhen Fanxiao, creating a fabricated memory and presenting it to the other's divine consciousness.

Jiang Yun's fabricated memory was simple: the old man didn't recognize the desolate patterns, but only appeared after a long and unsuccessful attack on the formation he had set up. He then stunned thirty-eight guards.

Then the elder grabbed himself, knocked himself unconscious. When he woke up, he was lying on the ground, and the man was dead beside him. The elder had also disappeared.

As for what happened in the middle, I have no idea!

Despite being under a soul-searching, Ginger Cloud's heart was still somewhat nervous.

Because of such experiences, one might doubt their authenticity, but there's no way around it. The water in the heavens is truly too deep.

Jiang Yun had only been here for over a month, and he had already encountered two beings who might be Emperors. Therefore, he dared not fabricate other experiences at random, lest he make things worse. He could only pretend to know nothing.

After just a few breaths, the shadowy figure of the intermediary withdrew its divine consciousness from Jiang Yun's soul.

But immediately after, the two figures on either side also unexpectedly used their divine consciousness to penetrate into Jiang Yun's soul.

Jiang Yun let out a muffled hum, his voice dry and crisp. Except for a faint spark of consciousness, he had already passed into unconsciousness!

Soul searching will naturally have some impact on a cultivator's soul, and his reaction to falling unconscious is also normal.

After the other two had finished their soul-searching on Jiang Yun, the three figures exchanged a clear look and then the one in the middle spoke: "Take him away first!"

Also, tell him that for this period of time, he is not allowed to leave the Heavenly Beyond.

And he must not tell anyone about his experiences while hunting, nor allow anyone to ask him about them!

Ginger Cloud, hearing the words clearly, naturally understood that they were still going to seek confirmation from Shen Zhaoyun and others.

Still the President Fang walked in, just about to lift the unconscious Jiang Yun, but that figure suddenly spoke again, "You stay, have someone else take him away!"

Hearing this, President Fang's face remained unchanged, but his heart skipped a beat. He remembered Ginger Yun's previous attitude towards him and the words he had said.

Although he was confused, he naturally didn't dare to ask. He could only call someone else in again, send Jiang Yun out of the Military Weapons Hall, and hand him over to Liu Meng, while also relaying the order from that shadowy figure.

Liu Meng watched Jiang Yun, whose face was pale and unconscious, and didn't know what had happened inside. He also didn't dare to ask, so he obediently sent Jiang Yun back to his residence.

After lying on the bed, Jiang Yun immediately opened his eyes. Liu Meng, who had been guarding him, asked with concern, "Brother Fan, how are you feeling Why did you faint suddenly"

Jiang Yun slowly sat up and said, "It's nothing, just got injured during the hunt and it never fully healed."

"I was just searched by the people from the Military Martial Hall, causing my injury to flare up and leading me to pass out."

Liu Meng turned his eyes, opened his mouth, and wanted to ask Jiang Yun what had happened to him during the encirclement, but thinking of the order passed down by the Army Martial Hall, he could only give up his intention to ask and said, "Then you should rest well, heal your wounds quickly, and if there's anything, just say it after your injuries are healed."

Ginger Cloud also didn't bother with formalities, just nodded and said, "Okay!"

After seeing Liu Meng leave, Jiang Yun took out several pills and put them in his mouth, then closed his eyes.

He didn't lie to Liu Meng. In order to make the people in Junwu Hall believe him, he deliberately did not recover his power and did not treat his injuries.

Now that he had already been thoroughly searched, he naturally needed to heal quickly and restore himself to his peak condition so as to cope with any unexpected events that might arise.

——

Just as Jiang Yun was beginning to heal his wounds, the three figures from the Martial Arts Hall who had searched him finally descended from the high platform, revealing their true faces.

All three were elderly men. The one in the middle, tall and imposing, looked as stoic as a river: "The two of you go search the souls of the other thirty-eight. See if their memories match what Fan Xiao said."

Two other elderly men bowed deeply, and their figures vanished instantly.

And the tall old man also took a step and left the hall.

Above the world where Jiang Yun and his hunting party were, two figures appeared.

One of them was that tall old man, and the other was a young man.

This man was extremely handsome, but his phoenix eyes added a touch of the uncanny to his beauty.

The two men lowered their heads to gaze at the world below. The elder spoke first in a low voice: "Mo Tianjiang, we have now carefully examined the memories of all thirty-nine guards and confirmed that what they said is true."

It seems that someone among your subordinates has colluded with Xue Wu Chang to plot this ambush.

Upon hearing the elder's words, a subtle upward curve appeared at the corners of the strange man's mouth, revealing a smile of unknown meaning. "Huang Fudai," he said, "we all know about Xue Wu Chang's abilities."

His blood slave technique was inescapable.

"It's too early to say for sure that my men are colluding with him, isn't it"

"I've looked into the memories of those thirty-nine people, and I think Fan Xiao's speculation isn't unreasonable."

Perhaps, it wasn't my subordinates who colluded with Xue Wu Chang, but rather that I was unknowingly branded by Xue Wu Chang's blood, becoming his blood slave!

Moreover, the key to this matter should be to first investigate how Xue Wu Chang was able to send his blood seal into the Heavenly Outer Realm while we remained oblivious!

"It's fine that he only sent out a blood mark. If he wanted to kill us, we probably wouldn't even know how we died!"

The venerable elder could certainly hear the displeasure in the other party's words. He understood that if it were truly his subordinates colluding with Xue Wu Chang, such a thing would be a grave responsibility for any Heavenly General. Not only would they be held accountable for negligence, but it would also be a profound shame.

Therefore, the old man smiled faintly and said, "Don't be angry, Mo Tian. I'm just guessing based on the facts."

Otherwise, I should be at the Heavenly Marshal's Mansion right now, instead of coming here with Mo Tianjiang!

The strange man's expression softened a little, and he bowed to the elder: "Elder Huang's kindness, Mo naturally understands."

Once this matter has been thoroughly investigated, there will certainly be a heavy reward!

The elder waved his hand and said, "Mo Tian, your words are too heavy. You and I are both people from beyond the heavens. When something like this happens, we should naturally work together to investigate the truth, instead of suspecting each other and pushing each other away."

Okay, let's get back to business!

The eerie man nodded, and the two figures vanished simultaneously, appearing at the entrance of the underground passage.

Looking at the entrance, the two exchanged glances. The elder said, "This Bloodless's methods are truly ingenious. Imprisoned for so many years, he can still not only influence people's hearts and control them, but also know his own imprisonment location and the distance to this world."

The strange man said nothing, and strode into the passage. He looked at the walls on either side.

Although some of the bloody streaks that Jiang Yun initially saw on the cave wall had already fallen off, there were still some remaining.

The eerie man, like a wisp of ginger cloud, reached out and touched some powder, bringing it to his nose. He sniffed it, his brow furrowing slightly.

Then, the man continued walking deeper into the passage until he reached the end.

The elder followed as well, looking at the cave wall at the end and saying, “Mo Tianjiang, what do you think If we break through this passage now, will we really reach where Xue Wu Chang is imprisoned”

The eerie man fell silent for a moment before saying, "This isn't a passage at all!"iang Yun with a fawning expression and said, "Master summons this old slave What is it"Jiang Yun looked at him and said, "How is your cultivation recovering"Hearing this, Su Yang's heart suddenly tigh...
