Divine Soul is perhaps the term that best describes Ye Feng's current state. However, the Divine Soul he released was autonomously emitted, which does not mean that his main body was completely unconscious; it is fundamentally different from when he was absorbed by Mural World in the Underground Palace.
At this moment, utilizing this magical ability was merely Ye Feng training his Soul Thought. He has come to understand a principle: the further one progresses on the path of cultivation, the greater the demands on a warrior's soul awareness, which is essentially mental strength.
Only when mental strength reaches a certain level can one ascend to the ranks of unprecedented strong beings...
"Formless and selfless, the soul wanders freely in the void! This must be the true essence of Divine Soul!" After some adjustments, Ye Feng finally grasped the most fundamental concept of Divine Soul. He then retracted that strand of Divine Soul and closed his eyes to rest.
During this return journey, all he needed was a quiet sleep, and when he awoke, he would likely see the gates of Ning Cang City!
Meanwhile, at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in Ning Cang City, the Outer Sect Disciples had already begun to organize. Under the command of the sect leader, ten groups of disciples were assigned different search tasks in various areas surrounding Yue Ma Plain, but entry into Yue Ma Plain was strictly prohibited.
Among the Outer Sect Disciples, few knew Ye Feng. Most had only heard of this exceptional disciple but did not know him personally. The Inner Sect even specially created many temporary portraits for disciples to identify him.
Soon, a team of about one hundred disciples set out towards Yue Ma Plain, carrying portraits. There was no absolute leader among this sizable group; everyone performed their respective duties, splitting into smaller teams. Many viewed this as an opportunity for experience.
Only Bai Jing and others were deeply concerned. They looked at their group, which consisted of members from the combination known as the Demon Squad from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons: Wang Qin, Leihong, along with Cheng Ze and Zong Nan.
Everyone could see that there was a close relationship between Bai Jing and Ye Feng, and they comforted him: "It's fine; that guy is incredibly capable. How could anything happen to him? He might be hurrying back right now!"
"Exactly!"
Hearing this reassured Bai Jing somewhat. He pressed his lips together and said, "For this search operation, I hope everyone can work together. We have all received favors from Ye Feng, and I would like to thank you all in advance!"
His words seemed somewhat formal, but everyone clasped their fists in acknowledgment without speaking and turned to leave, showing their support for Bai Jing through action!
Soon, the team most concerned about Ye Feng left Ning Cang City!
At the same time, as night gradually fell, when Ye Feng opened his eyes, the coachman had already arrived at Ning Cang City!
The evening in Ning Cang City was peaceful, and the bustling market began to see more foot traffic. Before long, it would transform into a lively night market filled with voices!
Ye Feng nudged the still-sleeping Flying Spirit Lion, signaling him to wake up. After thanking the coachman, he got off the carriage!
Stepping onto the ground of Ning Cang City again, Ye Feng felt a mix of emotions. This trip had nearly led to a life-and-death separation, and so many unexpected events had occurred, leaving him somewhat melancholic. However, the lively atmosphere around them finally piqued Flying Spirit Lion's interest, and he began to explore the streets with curiosity!
Ye Feng checked the time and decided not to rush back to the Sect immediately. Before that, he needed to settle Flying Spirit Lion. After some thought during the journey, he felt it might not be appropriate to bring Flying Spirit Lion into the Sect; instead, it would be better to find him a place in a tavern in Ning Cang City!
Thus, under his guidance, they soon arrived at Windward Inn. The innkeeper was quite friendly and immediately recognized that Flying Spirit Lion was not from around there. After chatting for a bit, he arranged for them a top-notch room!
Ye Feng took Flying Spirit Lion to see the room; the furnishings were fairly complete and the style quite elegant. The latter had no objections, so they went downstairs to prepare for dinner!
The only thing that left Ye Feng speechless was how much this guy could eat! Each meal required dozens of taels! This meal was fine, but after dozens or even hundreds of meals like this, wouldn’t he go broke?
With no other choice, Ye Feng began to think about how to find something for Flying Spirit Lion to do!
Coincidentally, the tavern they visited this time was a hub for bounty missions! A bounty mission hub is where wealthy individuals seek difficult-to-obtain beast inner cores or furs and issue bounty missions for powerful warriors to hunt them down in exchange for rewards!
This was similar to Ye Feng's Sect's Cultivation Hall and resembled the trial missions in Yue Ma Plain! Ye Feng kept an eye on things and said, "Why don't you go hunt some beasts when you have nothing else to do? With your strength, it should be no problem for you to support yourself!"
Flying Spirit Lion had no objections; feeling bored himself, he nodded in agreement. He was quite obedient so far and hadn’t caused any trouble for Ye Feng. Just then, an unusual group of guests arrived at the tavern!
The appearance of this group of guests was unremarkable, just like ordinary people. However, the subtle aura they exuded could not escape the keen senses of a martial artist. Ye Feng observed the trio: two men and one woman, and recognized them as the woman from the Ethereal Clan and her two attendants whom he had seen in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons.
During that encounter, he had unintentionally spotted them from the shadows, so the three did not seem to notice that they were being watched. Ye Feng lowered his head quietly, filled with doubt. Based on the events at the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, it seemed that these three were not disciples of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
Yet, they had appeared in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons. What were they up to?
This question lingered in Ye Feng's mind like a knot.
"What's wrong? Do you know those people?" The Flying Spirit Lion, being a spirit beast, immediately sensed something was off with Ye Feng and communicated through Vital Energy.
"I've met them once, but they probably don't recognize me," Ye Feng replied honestly.
"Is there a problem? Do you need to follow them later?" Although the Flying Spirit Lion did not understand what connection Ye Feng had with these three, its suggestion stirred something within Ye Feng.
"Well, since we ran into them by chance, let's follow them and see what happens!" Curiosity piqued Ye Feng's interest; he felt that their actions in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons were not good news and wanted to unravel the mystery.
"Are you sure? That woman's aura is somewhat unusual; I can't quite put my finger on it, but it gives me an uneasy feeling. If it's not necessary, it's better not to stir up trouble!" It was unclear whether the Flying Spirit Lion shared Xuan Lao's deep-seated fear of the legendary Ethereal Clan. Its words left Ye Feng momentarily stunned.
"What could happen in broad daylight? Besides, we're just going to follow them; we're not planning to rob them. What are you afraid of?"
"Fine, do as you wish!" The Flying Spirit Lion conceded helplessly.
Soon enough, the trio finished their light meal and left the inn without any delay. Ye Feng and the Flying Spirit Lion closely followed behind, careful not to reveal themselves. Fortunately, tracking among martial artists did not require maintaining a significant distance like ordinary people did.
As long as Divine Consciousness locked onto their target ahead, even if they turned down a few alleys, they would not lose sight of them!
"Have you thought it through? If we really find out that they have ulterior motives, what are you planning to do?" the Flying Spirit Lion said cryptically.
Ye Feng had not considered what these people were up to in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons at all, and naturally could not guess their intentions. He only had a gut feeling telling him that whatever these people were planning, it definitely wouldn't be anything good.
If they were currently in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, many things would be easier to resolve. However, being in a bustling marketplace, even if they discovered something, it would be difficult for them to take action.
"Let's see what we can find! If what these guys are planning poses a threat to the entire Divine Martial Continent, then even if it causes a huge uproar, we must stop it!" Ye Feng said with determination in his eyes.
The Flying Spirit Lion was taken aback for a moment before laughing, "I didn't expect you to care about the safety of the people!"
Ye Feng rolled his eyes in annoyance; he had experienced this guy's teasing countless times already.
"Wait! Something's happening!" At that moment, the three people ahead suddenly exhibited strange behavior. The two men and the woman abruptly split apart and sprinted in different directions! This sudden change left Ye Feng and the Flying Spirit Lion stunned. The other party's sudden actions either meant they had discovered them or...
"Stop thinking! Let's chase after them!" Ye Feng gritted his teeth, unwilling to let this opportunity slip away. He immediately ran in the direction the woman had fled, while the Flying Spirit Lion awkwardly touched his nose, realizing he had no choice but to follow suit. He quickly took off after Ye Feng.
The three who had suddenly separated ran towards opposite sides of the alley. Ye Feng followed the woman for a good while, nearly traversing all of Ning Cang City’s alleys before she finally stopped.
"If I were you, I wouldn't be so foolish. No matter what your purpose is, do you realize you're playing with fire?" The woman finally turned around and said calmly. It seemed she had done this on purpose; after all, if she couldn't detect Ye Feng and the Flying Spirit Lion in such a situation, it would be quite embarrassing for the Ethereal Clan.
Ye Feng was at a loss for words upon hearing this. The whole situation felt absurd from start to finish; chasing someone recklessly based solely on his assumptions was indeed unreasonable on his part.
In order to understand what he saw that day in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, he straightened his neck and said, "I know what you did! That day, you were up to something in the abyss!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the woman's expression changed dramatically! She had not guessed Ye Feng's purpose in tracking her, but hearing such words made her lose her composure!
"What did you say!" With those sharp words, Ye Feng knew he had hit the mark! Even though he had seen what happened that day, he still couldn't figure out what they were doing, so he deliberately said this to force her to reveal herself!
"Isn't what I said clear enough? What you intend to do will not succeed!" Ye Feng pretended to speak fiercely!
The woman from the Ethereal Clan was once again provoked, but she quickly calmed down and revealed a strange smile, saying, "You know, you are truly the most foolish person I have ever encountered!"
As soon as she finished speaking, without giving Ye Feng a chance to think, the woman suddenly moved. Her figure flickered and in an instant, she appeared right in front of Ye Feng. Her delicate arms reached out directly towards him, seemingly aiming to poke his eyes out!
What a vicious woman! Ye Feng was taken aback, but the realm of Martial Saint immediately unfolded. He retreated several steps while shaking his body, and a powerful wave of energy from the Xuanwu Realm spread out, instantly pushing the woman back!
"How is this possible!" The Ethereal Clan woman showed a look of astonishment, seemingly unable to imagine that someone targeting her would be such a difficult opponent!
