Mo Tiange stood on top of the mountain peak, staring at the dense forest below the cliff with a slight frown on her face.
Things were a little troublesome.
When they came that day, the Yu Clan said that there was a group of demonic beasts in the vicinity and that they had fought with them a few days ago. At that time, the demonic beasts had almost destroyed the Yu Clan's defensive formation, and it was estimated that they would return in a few days.
From then on, she and Luo Fengxue stayed in Yu Clan to prepare for the upcoming battle. As for Han Qingyu and Wei Jiasi, their two senior martial sisters, they kept in touch with Yu Clan to investigate the demonic beasts' situation.
The movements of these Monster Beasts were exactly as the Yu Clan had said. They seemed to be monitoring them, but they also seemed to be neither close nor distant. Sometimes it seemed as if they were about to attack, and sometimes it seemed as if they were about to retreat.
There were too many mortals and low-level cultivators in Yu Clan. Han Qingyu thought it would be better if they didn't take the initiative to attack. Otherwise, the ones who attacked would have to fight alone, and the ones who stayed behind wouldn't have enough strength and would fall into the enemy's scheme.
Wei Jiasi actually didn't think a low rank demonic beast could have such intelligence, but Han Qingyu said it was better to be safe than sorry.
They had come to battle to protect the Yu Family. It would be better if they could kill the demonic beasts, but the safety of the Yu Family was more important.
However, in the following days, these demonic beasts did not attack again.
Mo Tiange had already modified Yu Clan's defensive formation, so she didn't think demonic beasts would be able to enter. However, the problem now was that demonic beasts were eyeing them covetously from the side and they couldn't solve the problem. This feeling was too unbearable.
Moreover, they were ordered to assist, so how could they be delayed here?
Today was her turn to patrol. Now that she was standing on the mountain peak, she discovered the aura of demonic beasts. The aura wasn't very strong, but it was very dense, and it was extremely close.
She hesitated for a moment before taking out the Summoning Talisman and saying a few words. With a wave of her hand, the Summoning Talisman flew towards the Yu Family's courtyard.
Before long, a flight light rose from the Yu Clan. Wei Jiasi rode her flying sword and approached them. She asked faintly, "What's the matter?"
Wei Jiasi's attitude towards her couldn't be considered good, but Mo Tiange was already used to it. Mo Tiange also didn't think it was necessary for her to improve her relationship with Wei Jiasi, so she said faintly, "Senior Martial Sister Wei, look over there. It appeared again."
Wei Jiasi turned around and stared for a while before she closed her eyes and released her divine sense.
After a long time, she opened her eyes with a solemn expression.
"Senior Sister Wei, what should we do?"
According to Mo Tiange's divine sense, there were at least five or six second rank demonic beasts in that area.
Wei Jiasi wrinkled her brows and said, "Let's go take a look." Before she could get down from the flying sword, she immediately transformed into a flight light and flew towards the area filled with monster aura.
Upon seeing this, Mo Tiange helplessly shook her head. She summoned a White Silk Handkerchief then stepped onto it and followed closely behind Mo Tiange.
He descended the mountain and flew into the forest.
This White Silk Handkerchief was a gift from Zhong Muling. It was both a defensive magic weapon and a flying magic weapon.
She still hadn't tested its defense function, but its flying ability was outstanding. It didn't require much spiritual aura, and it was fast and stable. With her experience, if she tried to escape, perhaps only a few Foundation Building cultivators would be able to catch up to her.
Besides, it's been some time since she built her foundation. Especially after the battle, she'd already taken some time to refine all those magic weapons and magic tools. Among them was the Land-Fleeing Ruler. Even Zhong Muling praised it for its ingenuity. Even if she ran into something, she wouldn't be in any danger as long as she traveled a thousand miles.
However, Wei Jiasi's expression was very unsightly at the moment.
Her flying magic tool was just a flying sword. Although it was given to her by her master and was much better than ordinary flying swords, there was nothing special about it. After entering the forest, due to the terrain and environment, her flying speed was greatly reduced.
Nevertheless, Mo Tiange was steady and extremely agile from beginning to end.
She had been in the Foundation Building realm for more than eighty years. Although she was still in the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm, her understanding of spiritual aura cultivation techniques wasn't something ordinary cultivators could compare to. Now, she was actually outclassed by Mo Tiange. Although it was because of magic tools, she still felt bad.
Once they entered the jungle, it was already the territory of the demonic beasts. In the past, there were only rank 1 demonic beasts, but now, there would occasionally be rank 2 and 3 demonic beasts appearing.
But along the way, they didn't even see a single low-level demonic beast.
"Hey! Senior Martial Sister Wei!" Mo Tiange suddenly stopped and called out.
At this moment, Wei Jiasi was a little angry. She shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"
"The demonic aura has disappeared."
Wei Jiasi was stunned.
He hurriedly sent out his Divine Sense, and sure enough, that was the case.
Because Mo Tiange was the one who reminded her about this kind of thing because of her desire to compare herself with Mo Tiange, she felt even more humiliated and annoyed.
"Even if it's gone, we should go to that place and see what's going on."
Mo Tiange shook her head inwardly when she heard Wei Jiasi's harsh words. She then followed behind Wei Jiasi and continued to walk towards their original destination.
She already learned from Luo Fengxue why Wei Jiasi hated her, but she didn't think she was wrong. In fact, when she thought about it carefully, she was actually quite disappointed in Wei Jiasi.
Senior Martial Sister Wei was so entangled in her emotions, yet she couldn't tell the reason. Even if Luo Fengxue managed to persuade her, it would most likely be very difficult for her to have any achievements in the future — this was the flaw in her character.
After letting his imagination run wild for a while, the two arrived at their destination.
As she slowly followed behind Wei Jiasi, Mo Tiange secretly took out the Shuttle of Flying Apsara and got off the White Silk Handkerchief. She held it in her hand and lightly stepped on the withered branches to move forward.
Suddenly, she took a wrong step, her body floated up slightly, and rolled to the side.
At the same time, Wei Jiasi turned around and leaped high into the air.
A bolt of lightning exploded where they were.
Mo Tiange and Wei Jiasi glanced at each other and saw the astonishment in each other's eyes.
Someone who could hide their breath and had such a powerful spell that they couldn't find the location of the person who cast the spell — this opponent wasn't simple ah. She didn't seem like an ordinary second or third rank demonic beast.
The two of them cautiously stood behind each other and took out their magic tools.
Mo Tiange's White Silk Handkerchief and Shuttle of Flying Apsara — one for defense and the other for offense.
Wei Jiasi took out several talismans and a small silver ring.
Her Water Spirit Flag was already destroyed, but she was still Master Daoist Xuanyin's advanced inner disciple, so how could she be shabby? This Ruyi Ring was also a powerful magic tool.
The two of them used their divine senses to observe their surroundings. After an unknown amount of time, they suddenly made their moves at the same time.
Wei Jiasi threw the Ruyi Ring, which collided with a bolt of lightning.
As for Mo Tiange, she threw the White Silk Handkerchief. The handkerchief immediately changed shape in midair, turning into bricks and stones which fell down with a "plop, plop, plop" sound. They formed a wall in front of her, blocking the lightning.
The difference was that while Wei Jiasi was forced back a step, Mo Tiange didn't budge an inch.
Wei Jiasi cast another glance at Mo Tiange. Her eyes were filled with astonishment.
She could naturally see that Mo Tiange had both magic tools and magic weapons. Magic tools were fine since magic weapons were naturally better than hers, but she didn't expect them to be this powerful.
Based on her estimation, that bolt of lightning just now was much more powerful than a Foundation Building spell. Therefore, although she was strong, she was still forced back a step. Mo Tiange, on the other hand, was unexpectedly so relaxed.
A few days ago, Mo Tiange, who had just entered the early stage of the Foundation Building realm, returned after disappearing for several days. But now, she, who had just entered the early stage of the Foundation Building realm, suddenly advanced to the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm. This naturally aroused the suspicions of her acquaintances.
However, their masters also explicitly ordered them not to inquire about this matter, so no one asked too much.
Nevertheless, everyone knew that Mo Tiange must've encountered some kind of fated chance.
This matter urged Wei Jiasi to cultivate even more diligently. However, although she had a deep understanding of fights of magical powers, she didn't expect that not only did Mo Tiange's cultivation level advance, but she was also stronger than her in fights of magical powers.
