Within the mountain range, after Fang Chen recovered the Spiritual Qi in his Qi Sea, he left the secluded place.
This event was also a form of training.
There were only a few days left before the event ended. Fang Chen wanted to train himself well before the event ended.
Who knows, he might even be able to break through to the ninth level of the Qi Hai realm.
Fang Chen randomly walked through the mountain range. Along the way, he encountered several Soul-Type disciples. When the disciples saw Fang Chen, their faces flickered. One by one, they brought out their communication jade pendants, seemingly trying to send him a message.
As for them, they knew that they weren't a match for Fang Chen, so they didn't dare to attack Fang Chen.
In a short period of time, the news of Fang Chen appearing on a piece of flat land spread throughout the mountain range. Countless disciples rushed over at once.
Especially the top ten disciples. As official disciples of the Barren Sect, they hated the Yellow Spring Sect. When they heard that Fang Chen was in cahoots with the Yellow Spring Sect, they naturally wanted to take action.
Fang Chen didn't care about this. If any disciples came looking for trouble, he would deal with them if they were weak. If they were strong, he could choose to escape.
After walking for about six hours, Fang Chen suddenly found a cliff in front of him. The cliff was shining.
"What is this?"
Fang Chen was puzzled. His body flashed and he rushed towards the cliff in the depths of the mountain range.
After a short while, Fang Chen arrived at the bottom of the cliff. Only then did he realize that there was a quicksand on the cliff.
"This is …"
Fang Chen looked at the sparkling quicksand and was puzzled.
"Kid, your luck is really good. You actually encountered the Golden Quicksand." Ancestor Bronze's voice came from the python sword.
"Golden Quicksand."
Fang Chen had naturally heard of the Golden Quicksand. The so-called Golden Quicksand was a very special type of quicksand.
This type of Golden Quicksand was specially used by blacksmiths to refine weapons.
If one could inject the Golden Quicksand into a weapon, the grade of the weapon would increase by at least one grade.
"Why is there Golden Quicksand here?"
Fang Chen looked at the Golden Quicksand on the cliff with a wild smile on his face.
At this moment, the Little Mouse and the Banxianshu came out of the special space ring and quickly climbed up the cliff in front of Fang Chen's stunned eyes.
Then, it stopped in front of the Golden Quicksand and absorbed it madly.
"What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and collect the Golden Quicksand," Patriarch Bronze urged.
Fang Chen nodded and arrived in front of the cliff. There were some vines on the cliff. Fang Chen wrapped himself around the vines and climbed up the golden quicksand step by step.
When Fang Chen approached the Golden Quicksand, he could feel the scorching aura coming from it.
"What a powerful flame aura."
Fang Chen could not help but sigh.
After that, Fang Chen began to absorb the Golden Quicksand with his spatial ring.
Hiss!
The Golden Quicksand was originally very rare, so it was enough to find so much. After the Little Mouse and the Banxianshu swallowed some, the amount of Golden Quicksand that Fang Chen kept in his spatial ring was only the size of a washbasin.
If a blacksmith knew that Fang Chen had so much Golden Quicksand, they would definitely be shocked.
After successfully collecting the Golden Quicksand, Fang Chen slowly descended from the cliff. At this moment, two sonic booms came from the distance. Following which, two figures appeared in front of the cliff.
When they saw Fang Chen, a sinister smile appeared on their faces.
"Fang Chen, you really are here." Qi Yang sneered.
"Fang Chen, you actually dared to collude with the Yellow Springs Sect. Today, let us clean up the sect," Bu Han said sinisterly.
Qi Yang and Bu Han were the top ten disciples of the Soul Stream. They were ranked tenth and ninth respectively. For this event, they were also in the same group.
Hearing their words, Fang Chen's expression changed. He silently took out his transmission jade pendant.
"I'm not colluding with the Yellow Springs Sect," said Fang Chen.
"If you say you're not, then you're not. Let us first search your spatial ring to see if there's anything from the Yellow Springs Sect." Qi Yang pressed forward step by step, a wild aura coming from his body. He was forcing Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, I'll give you a chance. Die, or let us search your spatial ring," said Bu Han.
When Fang Chen saw the expressions of the two, he instantly understood. These two were using this as a pretense to snatch his Spirit Pearl.
"What if I don't choose either of them?" Fang Chen narrowed his eyes at the two of them.
"Then, you can go to hell."
When Qi Yang heard this, he let out a low growl. His figure flashed and a wild aura erupted from his body. He immediately launched a fierce attack at Fang Chen.
At this time, Fang Chen raised his hand and gently pinched the transmission jade pendant. "This enmity will definitely be avenged in the future."
Crash.
The transmission jade pendant shattered, and Fang Chen disappeared from the mountain range.
At this time, Elder Mo was chatting with several other Elders on the Soul Stream's mountain peak. Suddenly, space fluctuated, and a figure appeared.
"Yes, Fang Chen." Elder Mo hastily said when he saw Fang Chen appear.
The other Elders also quickly arrived in front of Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, what's going on?" Elder Mo still trusted Fang Chen, so he immediately asked Fang Chen what had happened.
"Jin Qiang is framing me." Fang Chen cupped his hands towards Elder Mo and the others.
"Fang Chen, do you have any proof?" asked the other Elders.
"I don't have any proof," said Fang Chen bluntly.
Elder Mo narrowed his eyes and stared at Fang Chen. His eyes flickered, and after a long while, he shook his head slightly. "Fang Chen isn't lying."
With Elder Mo's cultivation base, and the fact that he specialized in the Soul Dao, even if Fang Chen covered it up well, he wouldn't be able to escape Elder Mo's eyes.
However, after Elder Mo's investigation, he came to the conclusion that Fang Chen wasn't lying.
"Since that's the case, call Jin Qiang over," said the other Elders.
A moment later, Jin Qiang arrived at the plaza. Xing Feng had also come with him. Xing Feng was very happy to see Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, you still dare to come back?!" Jin Qiang was infuriated to see Fang Chen.
"Jin Qiang, Elder Mo said that Fang Chen isn't lying," reminded an Elder.
"How is that possible?! When I went to chase Fang Chen, he was cultivating on a mountain peak. Just as I reached the middle of the mountain, a Yellow Spring Sect member suddenly appeared and blocked my path. If they weren't colluding, then why did that Yellow Spring Sect member only attack me and not him?!" roared Jin Qiang.
The other Elders were also discussing this matter. This matter wasn't easy to say. Since it involved a Yellow Spring Sect member, they had to carefully investigate it. Otherwise, there would be trouble in the future.
However, right at this moment, Fang Chen took a glance at Elder Mo and said, "Elder Mo, may I have a word with you?"
Elder Mo was a bit puzzled, but he still followed Fang Chen to a secluded area.
"Fang Chen!"
Just as Elder Mo was about to speak, a silent soul ripple suddenly enveloped him. The next moment, Elder Mo actually saw the scene of Fang Chen in the mountain range.
In just ten seconds, the image disappeared and Elder Mo returned to his original state. However, Elder Mo was still incomparably shocked.
"To be able to affect my mind and record what happened just now, just which expert was it?!" Elder Mo's heart was in turmoil.
Although it had only been ten seconds, that kind of method was not something Elder Mo could compare to.
"Fang Chen." Elder Mo tried his best to calm the excitement in his heart as he looked at Fang Chen with a burning gaze.
"Elder Mo, I presume you also saw what happened just now?" asked Fang Chen.
Elder Mo nodded. "Fang Chen? Just which expert is it?"
"This senior doesn't want others to know of his existence," said Fang Chen softly.
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Elder Mo nodded heavily. Such an expert could kill him with a flip of his hand. In order to clear Fang Chen's name, this expert had actually recorded what happened just now for him to see. It seemed this expert's relationship with Fang Chen was very good.
"Fang Chen, I've already seen what happened just now. You have nothing to do with the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect." Although Elder Mo was very curious, he still held back from asking.
Such an expert was actually able to affect his mind in an instant. He even suspected that expert was right beside him. It was just that he hadn't been able to discover him.
The more he thought about it, the more Elder Mo felt that Fang Chen was incomparably mysterious.
Not long later, Fang Chen and Elder Mo returned.
"Elder Mo, Fang Chen definitely has something to do with the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect," said Jin Qiang loudly.
Elder Mo waved his hand for everyone to quiet down. He then said, "Don't mention this matter again in the future. Fang Chen has nothing to do with the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect. If anyone brings this up again, they will be punished according to the sect's rules."
Elder Mo's words shocked the other elders. They had never seen Elder Mo defend a disciple in such a way.
"Just what kind of background does this Fang Chen have?" Everyone was guessing.
The reason Fang Chen had been able to clear his name was naturally because of Ancestor Bronze.
Within the python sword, Ancestor Bronze's remnant will was a bit weak.
"Kid, I've sacrificed a lot for the sake of copying this image. Give me some spirit stones to help me recover," Old Ancestor Bronze said weakly.
Fang Chen didn't even think about it. He directly tossed over a million high grade spirit stones to Ancestor Bronze.
Fang Chen didn't want Elder Mo to know about Ancestor Bronze's existence. However, Elder Mo believed that a mysterious expert had appeared.
Elder Mo even thought that this mysterious expert had been secretly protecting Fang Chen.
Standing in the independent courtyard, Fang Chen recalled the scene that Ancestor Bronze had recorded today. He was still shocked.
To be able to record everything that had happened in an instant, even an expert like Elder Mo couldn't do it.
