555 The Mystery of the Gale (2/2)

Yin Banshuang's gaze slightly shifted to a spot. There was a group of four over there and all of them were Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. One of them was staring into the emptiness of the abyss below. He stood there for a long while. Suddenly, a look of joy welled up in his eyes, seemingly having discovered something. With a loud shout, he jumped into the abyss. The other three behind him saw this and their faces also lit up with glee as they followed him one by one.

Needless to say, that person certainly saw through the mystery of the gale's pattern. Otherwise, they would not have dared to go down so easily.

”If my suspicions are correct, right now at the bottom of the abyss, there are more than fifty human ancient martial art practitioners.”

Chen Wuhui nodded his head. The fifty ancient martial art practitioners mentioned were not ordinary ancient martial art practitioners. Those that could appear here were almost all Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. If they did not have Golden Elixir realm cultivation, they would not have dared to come to the fifth level at all.

The Intentionless Sect had a group of four. Aside from the sect leader Chen Wuhui, the other three were the deputy sect leader Chen Zikuang, the sect grand elder Xia Kunqian and the sect second elder Wang Qiusheng. The four of them were the Intentionless Sect's most powerful force. The ordinary elders were all on Cropped Top Mountain instructing the Intentionless Sect's disciples to plunder the normal treasures of the Beast Lair. Not all of them had followed along.

As for Chen Zi, with her cultivation, it was impossible for her to appear at the fifth level.

Chen Zikuang kept standing at the edge of the abyss, carefully observing the changes in the gale. Even though he knew that Mo Wen had arrived, he was not distracted. If they could not comprehend the pattern of the gale, even if they knew that there was important treasure at the bottom of the abyss, they most likely could only watch and see.

”I know the mystery of how the gale works. Senior Chen, maybe we can cooperate?” Yin Banshuang's eyes twinkled, then she looked at Chen Wuhui and smiled as she said this.

”Oh, how does Miss Banshuang want to cooperate with me?” Chen Wuhui smiled faintly as he said, ”If my suspicions are correct, the members of your Five Beasts Sect should be coming over soon. By that time, you will not need to cooperate with our Intentionless Sect, right?”

”The Five Beasts Sect is the Five Beasts Sect. I am my own person. Right now, I am cooperating with your Intentionless Sect as an individual. Also, I guarantee I will not involve the members of the Five Beasts Sect in this,” Yin Banshuang said plainly.

She naturally knew that after such a huge event had occurred in the abyss, it was impossible for the Five Beasts Sect to not send people over after receiving news of it. However, she did not want to cooperate with the members of the Five Beasts Sect. It was because she had other goals for coming to the abyss.

”Tell us how you want to cooperate,” Chen Wuhui said.

”I will tell you the mystery of how the gale operates, but your members of the Intentionless Sect must protect me along our way in the abyss. There is a section that we will need your strength in order to cross. However, I can guarantee that the information on how the gale works is absolutely perfect. It can avoid the gale's effect one hundred percent of the time,” Yin Banshuang said very confidently.

It was an experience she had gained from narrowly escaping the abyss. It was impossible for normal people who had not experienced it as she had to have her level of understanding. The people who seemed to have comprehended the gale's pattern may not necessarily have seen through all of it. Some of the gale's airstreams were still unavoidable. It could only be said to have relatively reduced the level of danger.

But she was different. If they followed her path, they could avoid the gale one hundred percent of the time. When that moment came, they only needed to be careful of the monstrous beasts in the abyss.

”You can avoid the gale one hundred percent of the time?” Chen Wuhui's gaze hardened. If she did not have a deep understanding of the abyss, she would absolutely not dare to say such things.

”I can. Also, I dare to guarantee that if the Luofeng Sect's treasure is truly in the abyss, it will certainly be at the bottom. That is because it is impossible to hide treasure in the cliffs on both sides of the abyss. So, you will need to reach the bottom of the abyss in order to possibly find the Luofeng Sect's treasure, so it does not conflict with where I am going.”

Yin Banshuang nodded her head. The inside of the abyss was dangerous beyond compare. Even without the effects of the gale, the threat of the monstrous beasts was very frightening. One could imagine how powerful the monstrous beasts that could survive in the abyss were. If their luck was bad, it was normal for a five-man team to be completely wiped out.

With her and Mo Wen's ability, although she had great confidence in them reaching the bottom of the abyss, the journey would certainly not be easy. If they were injured or expended too much Inner Qi, it would be difficult for them to do much even if they did reach the bottom of the abyss.

That was why she wanted to cooperate with Intentionless Sect. Traveling together with the members of Intentionless Sect would make the journey much safer. Also, she had provided safe passage, so even if she did not pull her weight much along the way and saved her strength, no one would say anything to her. That way, once they reached the place that gestated Vital Qi, they would not be powerless.

”Okay, deal.” Chen Wuhui agreed to Yin Banshuang's conditions almost without any hesitation. In reality, these conditions were harmless to the Intentionless Sect. It was just protecting Yin Banshuang along the journey.

As for what Yin Banshuang was thinking, he clearly knew. In this harsh environment full of danger, being able to conserve one's strength had a huge effect on their chances of survival.

The Intentionless Sect lost nothing for agreeing to work with Yin Banshuang. If they did not cooperate with her and did not figure out the mystery of the gale's workings, they might not even have the chance to descend into the abyss. Now that someone was willing to lead the way, he naturally was willing to agree.

”Since you have decided to team up, how about adding me in? Although I cannot see through the mystery of the gale's workings, I can lend my strength along the way to kill the monstrous beasts.”

A voice suddenly sounded from nearby. It was followed with a flash of light, and a blue silhouette appeared in front of the group. It was none other than Jin Ying of the Huatian Palace.
