Chapter 1432 Fruitless Search

The wind was howling, the rain was falling, Xiao Meng'er was running fast, letting the cold wind blow on her face, the cold rain corroding her body, the iron thorns and thorns were all over her feet, and in front of her were jagged rocks, foggy and strange paths leading to nowhere.

The rain was getting heavier, the blood on her clothes had been washed away, the breath on her body was getting lighter and lighter, and her face was still as pale as snow.

At dusk, the wind and rain had not stopped, and the strange valley abyss that was getting closer and closer in front seemed to be swallowing up heavy demonic breath.

The layers of strange fog lingering between the cliffs and mountains seemed to be a warning to the world that anyone who approached would be swallowed here.

Suddenly, the ground rumbled, as if a vicious beast that had been dormant for thousands of years in the depths of the earth suddenly woke up. The strange fog between the cliffs also surged irregularly, and a dangerous atmosphere quietly approached...

Xiao Meng'er finally stopped, looking at the cliff in front of her with strange fog surging, her heartbeat gradually became violent, she came to an ancient forbidden place, yes, this is the forbidden place that no one dared to approach easily for thousands of years.

Under the cliff, there were bones all over the floor, layer by layer, and I don't know how many people had been buried here, and the heavy strange fog lingering between the cliffs was actually a surging resentment from deep underground, condensed...

Xiao Meng'er walked forward a few more steps, and the resentment between the cliffs became more and more violent, as if it was going to swallow her, and it was like the shadow of an ancient vicious beast, baring its fangs and claws.

This is a forbidden place that no one dares to go to, even those masters in the Heavenly Domain are no exception. She can only escape from the pursuit if she escapes there.

At this moment, her face was pale. She was able to suppress the backlash of the Heaven-Defying Mysterious Art by relying on a profound Taoist method, but it was not a long-term solution. If she continued like this, she would still end up with a burning heart.

She killed those four people last night, and the people of the Heavenly Domain would not let her go. Now she needed to find a place where no one could go to practice in seclusion, and the strange valley abyss in front of her was the best place.

But what exactly was in this ancient forbidden land? Maybe it was a secluded path leading to the Demon Realm... She didn't know.

In the end, she jumped and flew down to the forbidden area.

...

A few days later, Xiao Chen didn't know where he was. It rained heavily for several days in a row, and he completely lost the trace of Xiao Meng'er's breath.

Today, the rain finally stopped, but it was difficult to find Xiao Meng'er's breath in the vast mountains and wilderness. Xiao Chen took out the only jade letter to communicate with her.

The jade note was still dim, and the spiritual power had dissipated. Even if it was re-condensed, the jade note that Xiao Meng'er was carrying had been broken, and he could not sense where she was.

"She should be safe for the time being..."

Xiao Chen frowned slightly, looking at the green mountains after the rain, but he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. If he had been more vigilant that day, the subsequent incident probably wouldn't have happened.

But now that things have come to this, there is nothing he can do. Xiao Meng'er's jade note was probably crushed by herself. Since she crushed the jade note by herself, she didn't want him to find her. Why? Could it be because she practiced some forbidden skills...

"Ah, idiot, you are really a piece of wood."

Just then, the voice of the bone demon suddenly sounded in his mind again. Xiao Chen was puzzled when he heard him say that, and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"Ah!"

The bone demon sighed, as if even he, an outsider, could see clearly at this time, and said, "I think that little girl is very arrogant. When she was captured by Duanmu Xie, she put all her hopes on you, but you failed to save her in the end. She was inevitably discouraged that night and finally chose to take risks and practice forbidden skills. So now, she doesn't want you to find her."

"Is that so?"

After hearing what the bone demon said, Xiao Chen seemed to be suddenly enlightened. Recalling that day, although Xiao Meng'er was captured by Duanmu Xie, she left her breath all the way for him, but now, not only did she not leave any breath for him, but she also deliberately concealed her breath so that he could not track her.

Could it be that what the Bone Demon said... Xiao Meng'er was actually blaming herself in her heart, blaming herself for not saving her...

But I did go there at that time, but I was still a step late that night, and I have never given up looking for her these days...

Does she think that I came to this ancient trace just to find the ancient lotus, and left her life and death at a loss?

Even though the relationship between the two of them in the Lingxu Realm was always subtle, especially that time in Fengyuntian, the two of them were more like enemies, attacking each other.

But since coming to this ancient fairyland, Xiao Chen asked himself, he has never treated her as an outsider, even when he was in the gap of the fairyland, he was in the body of the gods and demons of Dugu Tianxia, ​​when he found Luo Die nearby, he risked turning back to remind Xiao Meng'er to be careful.

And this time, it seems that she really misunderstood me...

Bone Demon said, "If not, why did she crush the jade note? Only you two can use this jade note for communication, and no one else can track it. If she didn't want you to find it, why would she crush the jade note?"

"That's true."

Xiao Chen's brows gradually locked, holding the cracked jade note in his hand. When they went to the God and Demon Mountains, they said that they would not get separated no matter what, so they had these two jade notes, but now... she crushed her jade note. If she wasn't blaming herself, then what else could she do.

"Alas!"

The Bone Demon sighed again and said, "Women's minds are always so sensitive and delicate. Boy, if you meet her again in the future, you'd better tell her what happened that day, so as not to create a rift in your heart and suspicion of each other. Then... I think you'll be in trouble."

"Hmm..."

Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at the shadows of the mountains in the distance. He knew where this place was. It might not be so easy to offend the forces in the Ancient Trace, and it might not be so easy to leave.

...

A month passed like this. In this month, Xiao Chen still didn't find Xiao Meng'er, but he knew the situation in the Ancient Trace.

The hub of the Ancient Trace is probably in the center of the Ancient Trace. The seeds of the Ancient Lotus ten thousand years ago are also very likely to fall there. Now, people from the God Demon Abyss or the Ancient Immortal Realm have already rushed there.

As long as the hub of the Ancient Trace is opened, the eternal spiritual energy of the Ancient Trace can be drawn out. The people in the Immortal Realm want to lead the spiritual energy to the Immortal Realm, while the people in the God and Demon Abyss want to lead the spiritual energy to the God and Demon Abyss. This time, the two sides will have a huge conflict in this Ancient Trace.

Perhaps the Empress and Yun Zhongjun, as well as the big figures in the Ancient Immortal Alliance, have now come to the Ancient Trace, but I don’t know where they are now.

And Xiao Chen must rush over to stop them. No matter what, he must stop the people in the God and Demon Abyss and the Ancient Immortal Realm from opening the hub of the Ancient Trace.

What Fairy Yudie told him that day was true. The hub of the Ancient Trace is also a key seal in the Heaven Beyond Heaven.
