Chapter 557 - 309: Jin Wuchen’s Fury, Qi Chuan Takes Action
The Broken Spirit Mountain Range is vast.
Qi Chuan flew swiftly, and after a while, he reached the northernmost edge of his designated area.
"Ahead lies the Black Abyss."
Qi Chuan looked forward.
There, a giant "black belt" stretched across, marking the end of the Broken Spirit Mountain Range, a black chasm.
The Broken Spirit Mountain Range is flanked by water on two sides and the abyss on one.
The area he was responsible for happens to border the abyss at the edge.
"According to their plan, should I search from here all the way southward towards Jin Wuchen’s location to find that Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon?"
Qi Chuan showed a thoughtful expression.
By now, Jin Wuchen must be sitting cross-legged on the southern cliff, operating a secret technique, sensing the positions of the treasure-seeking mice and spying on information.
The spying information is easy to cover up.
But the position of the treasure-seeking mouse is a bit troublesome.
Qi Chuan could certainly find a way to block Jin Wuchen’s perception of the treasure-seeking mouse’s position.
But doing so would clearly tell Jin Wuchen that something is amiss on his end.
"It seems I have to follow their plan and search southward from the Black Abyss."
Qi Chuan showed a hint of helplessness.
This way, the probability of encountering the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon is still low.
However, there’s no helping it, and he can only proceed this way.
Anyway, this is just an attempt.
If the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon is not found, completing the task normally and obtaining two Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Cores from Jin Wuchen isn’t considered a wasted effort.
"Treasure-Seeking Mouse."
The hem of Qi Chuan’s clothes on his chest moved slightly, and a gray demon rat, about the size of half a palm, emerged and leaped onto his left palm.
Qi Chuan pinched a spell with his right hand, causing dharma light to shine, which was a Minor Success Level control technique for the treasure-seeking mouse.
The treasure-seeking mouse’s body also glowed with a soft light, much of which emanated from its heart and chest area.
Afterward, Qi Chuan took out a piece of Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon dung, hard as stone, from his Qiankun bag for the treasure-seeking mouse to sniff.
"Go."
With a light command,
Swish!
Upon his words, the treasure-seeking mouse immediately dashed and burrowed into the ground ahead.
In Qi Chuan’s perception, the treasure-seeking mouse was scurrying wildly beneath the earth, diligently searching for traces of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon.
The Minor Success Level treasure-seeking mouse control technique allows the mouse to leave him for two quarters of an hour, which is half an hour.
At the speed of the treasure-seeking mouse, the search area is already quite large.
As long as the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon enters Qi Chuan’s search zone, the likelihood of discovery is fairly high.
"Next, it’s about continuous attempts."
Qi Chuan thought to himself.
Immediately, he moved to search in another direction.
Qi Chuan differs from others in two aspects.
Firstly, with a Nascent Soul Late Stage Divine Soul, he can personally search for the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon’s traces.
Though without additional means, the discovery of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon solely through Divine Sense is difficult to guarantee.
However, this is based on the premise of an equivalent tier of Divine Soul.
Using a Nascent Soul Late Stage Divine Soul to track a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast, there’s a difference.
In terms of effectiveness in discovering the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon, he could be considered another treasure-seeking mouse.
Secondly, others have only Entry Level control techniques for their treasure-seeking mice, unable to let them leave for more than a minute.
This forces them to act together with the treasure-seeking mouse, unable to separate.
But with Qi Chuan’s Minor Success Level control technique, the treasure-seeking mouse has thirty minutes of free movement.
This allows Qi Chuan to separate from the treasure-seeking mouse and search in two different directions.
They only need to reunite every half hour.
Thus, the probability of Qi Chuan discovering the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon greatly increases.
...
Meanwhile, as Qi Chuan and others searched for the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon’s trace in the Broken Spirit Mountain Range with their treasure-seeking mice.
On the southern side of the mountain range.
On a rocky cliff, Jin Wuchen sat cross-legged on a large rock, hands pinching a spell, seeming to be casting some secret technique.
Casting ended.
A flat light plane appeared between his palms.
Five red light dots moved chaotically across the surface.
Although the paths seemed erratic, each dot stayed within its designated area, not crossing into others’ territories.
The five light dots represented the positions of the treasure-seeking mice for Qi Chuan and the others.
Simultaneously, Jin Wuchen could also cast magic to connect with any treasure-seeking mouse’s internal spiritual power mark to spy.
"Hmm?"
"Qi Chuan’s treasure-seeking mouse seems more active than the others?"
Suddenly, after observing for a while, Jin Wuchen slightly frowned, focusing on the red light dot representing Qi Chuan’s treasure-seeking mouse.
"Something’s not right."
Immediately, Jin Wuchen changed his spell.
Ripples spread across the light plane.
The five red light dots vanished simultaneously.
Instead, a somewhat blurry scene appeared on the light plane.
This was the view spied on by the spiritual power mark within the treasure-seeking mouse.
It wasn’t very clear.
This was quite normal.
A single spiritual power mark can only provide spying, not capture a very clear image.
Moreover, the spiritual power mark must hide itself to avoid detection by others, which further degrades image quality.
However, even if blurry, it was sufficient.
