Chapter 1357: Jiang Xiaonu’s New Ability

Stop, there is danger ahead!’
Luo Qingyan was dashing through the woods as she suddenly heard Jiang Xiaonu’s shout from behind. Luo Qingyan used her divine senses to scan the surroundings and frowned as she asked slightly confused,
I do not detect any Chaos Beasts. Young Mistress Xiaonu, what have you detected?


I am not sure either; I can only feel that there is danger!’
Jiang Xiaonu shook her head as she looked at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi very resolutely ordered,
Detour!

After entering the Dense Fog Forest, the trio did not fly above the forest; they would die faster that way. The entire Dense Fog Forest was shrouded by the white fog, and nothing could be seen from the sky. Even one’s divine senses could only detect some old and withering trees. If anyone dared to fly above the forest, that would probably alert the numerous Chaos Beasts beneath that person and—as a result—trigger the tens of Ancient-Grade Chaos Beasts in the deepest parts of the forest!
At this moment, the trio was traveling within the forest, and their line of sight and divine senses were more nimble. Of course… Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu’s divine senses could not be used. Furthermore, Jiang Xiaonu had never used divine senses before; her cultivation technique was completely different from ordinary humans’.
It was precisely so that Jiang Yi chose to believe Jiang Xiaonu. Special Races must have their own unique traits. The fact that soul spirit attacks were useless against Jiang Xiaonu was proof enough how special her race was.
Swish!
Although Luo Qingyan was a little reluctant, she could not do anything as Jiang Yi had so ordered. She could only follow the two and make a detour. However, after another five minutes, Jiang Xiaonu once again shouted,
Young Master, there is danger ahead. Let’s go this way!


Uh—

Luo Qingyan was a little lost for words. Her divine senses were considerable, and she did not find anything amiss ahead even after checking a few times. If they continued making detours, when would they be able to reach the Ghost Noise Cave? What if Luo Fu and his men caught up with them?

Alright!

Jiang Yi was very obedient to Jiang Xiaonu, and Luo Qingyan could only smile bitterly and follow along. After another five minutes, Jiang Xiaonu once again requested for a change in direction. By this time, Luo Qingyan had given up on sending out her divine senses and just followed behind the duo. After all, she did not have a right to say anything as she was now a slave.
Something miraculous happened!
The trio had made turns here and there for almost an hour but had not encountered even a single Chaos Beast. Luo Qingyan’s attitude finally changed. If it wasn’t someone luring Chaos Beasts in the vicinity away, then Jiang Xiaonu was a very scary being. She was a mere Heaven God and had the ability to avoid disaster? What heaven-defying ability was this?
Jiang Yi had realized this as well. He curiously asked in a low voice,
Xiaonu, what is going on? Can you really sense danger around us?


It is not a feeling!

Jiang Xiaonu explained in a low voice,
The moment I broke through and became a Heaven God, I acquired a new ability. After I transform, my senses would be heightened sharply. I had smelled the aura of Chaos Beasts just now. It is also this ability that has allowed me to survive many missions.


Oh, oh! Let’s go then!

Jiang Yi suddenly became energized. With Jiang Xiaonu’s newfound powerful ability, they were now like fish in water within the Dense Fog Forest: they would be able to detect Chaos Beasts easily and avoid them, reaching the Ghost Noise Cave smoothly.

What race is Jiang Xiaonu from? Why have I not heard of it before?

After another hour of smooth-sailing traveling without encountering a single Chaos Beast, Luo Qingyan suddenly thought about this curiously. Jiang Xiaonu had actually ascended from the Lower Domain at such a young age. Her flying speed was also exceptional, and she possessed such a special ability. Luo Qingyan had never heard of such a powerful Special Race in the Lower Domain!
The spirit energy in the Lower Domain was severely lacking; it was hard for powerful races to be nurtured there. If there was such a special race, the Higher Domain would probably have heard about it long before. Even if this race was not widely known, it would have also become a formidable force on its own with its own domain; how could this lady have ascended alone?
Luo Qingyan could not make sense of this. After walking for such a long time, they should probably be nearing the Ghost Noise Cave. She did not dare to think about too much anymore as she sent her divine senses out to scan the surroundings carefully. The Ghost Noise Cave was very safe; it was something that everyone in the vicinity of the Blue Lion City knew. However, was it really that safe? Luo Qingyan never believed in rumors but only in her own judgment.
Gradually, the terrain ahead of them slowly changed as well.
The dense woods that they had been traveling through suddenly became a patch without any vegetation. It was like a patch of wasteland; there weren’t even any weeds growing there. There were also many strange stone peaks ahead. Before they had neared the peaks, strange sounds were carried towards them by the winds. It was the sounds of wailing ghosts and howling wolves.

Go, let’s enter!

Jiang Xiaonu did not sense the auras of Chaos Beasts ahead. Jiang Yi waited for Luo Qingyan to investigate first, and he then beckoned for everyone to move ahead slowly.
…
Among the stone peaks was a small mountain cavern. This cavern winded underground, and at this moment, twelve God Kings were hiding in it. A yellow pearl in one of the upper-tier God King’s hands suddenly lit up as he excitedly said,
Second Uncle is indeed god-like. Luo Qingyan and that Heaven God have arrived. All are to retreat to the innermost part of the Ghost Noise Cave and hide your auras. Let’s wait for them to enter the Ghost Noise Cave first. Luo Bo, destroy your jade pendant and immediately ask the Clan Head, Second Uncle, and Elder Luo Tie to head this way!

If Luo Qingyan was here, she would definitely recognize that yellow pearl. It was an extremely rare treasure that could sense everything going on within a hundred-thousand-feet radius. As it wasn’t using divine senses, those being detected could not sense it at all. If it was divine senses, at the very least Jiang Yi and company would have sensed something.
None among the twelve assigned to the Ghost Noise Cave were peak-stage God Kings. That was why Luo Fu had given this treasure to them and told them not to attack if they found Jiang Yi and Luo Qingyan but to inform them immediately instead.
It was very difficult to send messages here. However, if the transmission jade pendant was broken, Luo Fu would immediately be able to sense it and would take it that Jiang Yi and Luo Qingyan had been found. He would then rush here immediately.

Wu-Wu—

The wind wailed and grew ear-piercing. Ordinary Heaven Gods would probably not dare to enter but retreat sensibly. Jiang Yi also felt a little uncomfortable. If it wasn’t for his Divine Sound Heaven Skill, he would probably be about to vomit blood.
Luo Qingyan was having a better time. After all, as her soul spirit was at the peak-stage God General level, this type of soul spirit attack was nothing to her. Jiang Xiaonu was even better and felt almost nothing. This only made Luo Qingyan even more surprised.

Go!

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth as he shouted. Luo Qingyan had already informed Luo Shui and the others that regardless who managed to escape, they were to look for Sixth Elder and the others to ask them to head to the Ghost Noise Cave. Hence, they could not go anywhere else but wait here for reinforcements to appear. Furthermore, if they ran aimlessly in the forest, that would increase their chances of accidentally running into the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings.

Wuu! Wuu!

The winds grew louder and louder as Jiang Yi’s face was filled with a pained expression. He was nearing his limit. After another hundred feet, Jiang Yi could only grit his teeth and drink the Rootless Water. If not, his soul spirit would immediately disintegrate.
After drinking one drop of the Rootless Water, the splitting pain in his mind disappeared. His soul spirit was now ten-fold stronger and was like that of a God King’s. The soul spirit attack could now be easily managed. As white fog enveloped them, no one knew how far away the Ghost Noise Cave was. The trio could only continue walking ahead.

Master, I cannot take it anymore. Keep me inside the Chaos Essence Pearl!

After another thousand feet, Luo Qingyan’s painful voice transmission was sent over. Jiang Yi could only keep her inside his Chaos Essence Pearl. Jiang Yi looked a little bewildered as he observed that the winds were not as loud here, though the soul spirit attacks had intensified. Even his current strengthened soul spirit was feeling uncomfortable.
Walking another thousand feet, Jiang Yi realized that the wind noises had stopped completely, and there was no sound at all anymore. However, the formless soul spirit attacks were becoming more and more terrifying. Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was feeling very uncomfortable, and he was about to vomit blood.
However—
At this moment, Jiang Yi not only did not increase his speed but actually stopped. His eyes were dazed as he muttered to himself like a fool,
The louder the winds, the stronger the Divine Sound Heaven Skill ought to be. Why is it that even though the noises have disappeared, the formless soul spirit attacks have become more powerful? Could it be…?


Uh?

Jiang Xiaonu saw that Jiang Yi had stopped and looked over, confused. Her eyes suddenly shone with bright light. Jiang Yi had suddenly sat down cross-legged. Previously, whenever this happened, it was always because Jiang Yi had an epiphany and was entering a state of meditation. Could it be… Jiang Yi was realizing something now again?
