Pfft!

Fate Vision encountered the supreme intent wrapped around Xiao Mu's palm and was blocked, unable to penetrate through.

However, the power of destiny immediately caused a distortion within the alchemy pill, creating inexplicable fluctuations that twisted fate and evaded Xiao Mu's detection.

Sensing the power of destiny within the alchemy pill, Xiao Mu casually infused a cluster of supreme intent through his palm into the surface of the pill, forming a thin coating that enveloped the pill like a wax pellet, preventing the power of destiny from escaping. Only then did he hand it over to Zhao Jingyan, "This alchemy pill contains the power of destiny. It uses the power of destiny to adjust one's body, accelerating the enhancement of one's strength. In theory, it can be taken, but I do not recommend you take it now. It would be best to wait until the matter with Mr. Gu Ya is investigated clearly."

"Yes, Brother Mu, I understand what to do now, thank you for the guidance!"

Zhao Jingyan expressed his solemn thanks, took the alchemy pill, and stored it back into the storage box for safekeeping.

"I have another task in need of Zhao brother's assistance," Xiao Mu spoke again.

Zhao Jingyan hastily stood up, respectfully said, "Please instruct me, Brother Mu. You've been a great help to me, and no matter the task, I will do my utmost."

Brother Zhao is very loyal!

Xiao Mu was extremely satisfied with Zhao Jingyan's attitude; such a person was worth investing in and helping.

With a smile, he gestured for Zhao Jingyan to sit and spoke calmly, "The task that I'm asking Brother Zhao to do is somewhat dangerous. You can choose whether or not to undertake it..."

Zhao Jingyan immediately reasserted his stance and bowed respectfully to Xiao Mu, "Brother Mu has helped old Zhao a lot. Not doing some dangerous tasks would not aptly express my gratitude. Please command me, no matter the task, I will carry it out."

"You are too modest, Brother Zhao."

Amidst the curling smoke of incense fire, a strand of hair suddenly appeared in Xiao Mu's hand, which then floated into Zhao Jingyan's hand.

Zhao Jingyan subconsciously looked at the hair in his hand. A flash of golden purple brilliance appeared on the surface of the hair, then completely receded as quickly as it had come, making it seem nothing more than an ordinary strand of hair.

But then he heard Xiao Mu continue, "The next time Mr. Gu Ya summons Brother Zhao to a gathering, just take this strand of hair out when Mr. Gu Ya appears."

"Take it out?"

Zhao Jingyan was taken aback, puzzled, "Do I not need to do anything else?"

"No need, Brother Zhao just has to take the hair out, but remember not to let Mr. Gu Ya notice when you do it."

Xiao Mu's divine look returned to stillness, with only the sound of his Divine Sense rippling in Zhao Jingyan's ears.

"Yes, Brother Mu, I remember. Rest assured, I will definitely complete the task."

Zhao Jingyan stood up, generously promising.

"Brother Zhao, the first thing you should do is ensure your own safety first. Whether the task can be completed is actually not important."

Xiao Mu advised with a smile.

This time, he finally decided to make official contact with Mr. Gu Ya. The main reason he hadn't acted before was due to the presence of the formidable enemy Thunder God of Qing Jie, which made it inadvisable to be distracted.

Additionally, Mr. Gu Ya's gatherings were quite secretive, with each one being informed at the last minute and the locations changing every time. Even for Xiao Mu, it was not easy to trace.

Now that he had decided to investigate Mr. Gu Ya, the first thing Xiao Mu needed to do was undoubtedly to lock onto his location.

After gesturing for Zhao Jingyan and the others to leave, Xiao Mu's Divine Sense withdrew from his divine look.

He began to plan his own next actions.

There was much he needed to do, besides investigating Mr. Gu Ya, the most important of which was to track down Tai Cang's City God, seize the City God's treasure, and in addition, to continue searching for information on the Lord of the White Mansion and the whereabouts of the other half of the Yama Command.

"He actually escaped, Tai Cang is stronger than I imagined."

On the edge of Dalin Abyss, southwest of Twilight Forest Village, near the position of the Great Tang Ruins and the Three Emperors' Tomb, Zhu Fuchen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Having just attempted to kill Tai Cang's City God, despite joining forces with Huang Yuan and Yu Wen'en, they ultimately allowed the injured Tai Cang's City God to escape.

The strength of Tai Cang exceeded their expectations, almost one of the strongest existences below the True Gods.

"Heh, it's just that he relies on his Escape Art being fast, if not for his Five Escape Union speed being faster than all three of us, how could he have escaped this time?"

Huang Yuan was dissatisfied, "I'll have to prepare more when I go back, find a way to restrict Tai Cang's Escape Art, and see how he'll escape next time."

Although they defeated Tai Cang's City God, the three of them inevitably suffered some injuries and swiftly moved across Dalin Abyss towards the village using their Escape Art.

Yu Wen'en suddenly shouted, "Fellow Daoists, up ahead is the Forgotten Valley, where a peculiar power constantly hovers throughout the year. No matter how powerful you are, even True Gods dare not pass through the Forgotten Valley, for they will forget the events within it, let's detour around it instead."

Saying this, he took the lead and skirted around the dark green gourd-shaped valley to the southeast.

"It's strange how Tai Cang didn't blunder into the Forgotten Valley when he was fleeing, lucky for him."

Huang Yuan cursed again unwillingly, his gaze shifting from the yellow-green gourd-shaped valley as he followed Yu Wen'en's departing figure.

"The power of the calamity star is eliminated."

Xiao Mu, in cultivation, clearly sensed the disappearance of the surrounding calamity power and could not help opening his eyes, murmuring to himself softly, "I wonder how Huang Yuan and the others' encirclement of Tai Cang turned out, whether they captured Tai Cang."
