He had originally wanted to urge Gu Chen to join him and et with other Jing Tian Departnt commanders who had entered the spiritual realm, but seeing Gu Chen's deanor, Lu Chang refrained from speaking.

"If Brother Gu needs the help of heavenly and earthly treasures, I do know of a place, but it is sowhat dangerous," Lu Chang seed to recall sothing and then said to Gu Chen.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen's eyes imdiately brightened as he said, "Please, tell more, Brother Lu."

Seeing Gu Chen's reaction, Lu Chang was very forthright and said directly, "On my way to the Spirit Martial Stage, I accidentally passed by a den of a strange beast where I saw a nearly mature Three-leaf Gathering Spirit Flower nearby. I wanted to pick it, but realizing the beast's strength was a bit too formidable, I thought twice and gave up."

"With Brother Gu's strength, as long as you're careful, I think there shouldn't be any problems."

"Three-leaf Gathering Spirit Flower?"

Gu Chen's eyes shone even brighter at the ntion, sparkling radiantly. This was a heavenly and earthly treasure with dicinal potency about three tis stronger than the Spirit Gathering Flower he had obtained before, rare even in ancient tis.

Although it hadn't completely matured yet, if Gu Chen could acquire it, it would certainly help him open more acupoints in the Hundred Orifices Stage and significantly increase his strength.

"It's good if Brother Gu is satisfied," Lu Chang said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Lu," Gu Chen said, clasping his fist in gratitude toward Lu Chang.

Lu Chang shook his head and then inford Gu Chen of the precise location, also ntioning that so commanders from the Jing Tian Departnt of the East Province had arrived in the spiritual realm. They had been scattered upon entering the realm but had left marks along the way, which Lu Chang had noticed. He was preparing to et up with them.

"If you need anything, Brother Gu, you can co to us at any ti," Lu Chang said.

Gu Chen nodded, understanding Lu Chang's intention. In the spiritual realm, where people from the martial fraternity were the majority, Lu Chang was worried they might gang up on Gu Chen.

But now, having reached the Earth Grade in all his skills, Gu Chen no longer feared anyone in the spiritual realm barring the world wanderers from the Six Great Holy Lands and Lin Bai.

Afterwards, Lu Chang left the place having told Gu Chen how to contact the Jing Tian Departnt of the East Province.

After Lu Chang had gone, Gu Chen ignored the group of martial artists around him who were covertly sizing him up. His figure flashed, and he instantly disappeared without a trace.

The martial artists who were observing Gu Chen were imdiately stunned, with no one on the scene having seen how he disappeared.

"Is this the level of 'Geese Passing Without Sound, Walking on Snow Without a Trace' in light-body technique?" a martial artist from the Tianyun Sect exclaid.

At such a level, the speed had reached an extre, and the movents were as elusive as a ghost. Even within the Tianyun Sect of the East Province, known for its light-body technique, only the old sect leader, a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, had achieved this level.

...

anwhile, at this mont, Gu Chen was wildly dashing through the spiritual realm using LingXu Nine Steps, a new Earthly Martial Skill he had acquired.

His speed was so fast that the wind whistled by his ears, and others couldn't even see his shadow, let alone follow his movents.

If not for his extraordinary physique and remarkable eyesight, he would not have been able to withstand the strain of such high-speed movent, which would have caused him significant harm.

"rely the LingXu Nine Steps at the initial stage of understanding, and it already allows such swift speed?"

Gu Chen dashed across the vast land of the spiritual realm, looking exhilarated. He was light as a swallow, as if he had grown a pair of wings on his back, capable of soaring into the heavens with just a light leap.

Even with such an astonishing speed, Gu Chen did not leave any marks on the ground, and, if he wished, not a whisper of sound, completely silent.

If used for assassination, Gu Chen might even have the potential to beco the world's number one assassin.

Gu Chen was not very familiar with these aspects, so he did not understand what 'Geese Passing Without Sound, Walking on Snow Without a Trace' ant. He only knew that his current speed was at its ultimate.

Even the world wanderers from the Six Great Holy Lands would probably not be able to match him!

"According to what Brother Lu said, with my current speed, I should be able to reach my destination in half a day."

At that mont, as Gu Chen dashed, he seed to sense sothing—a slight raise of his eyebrows and a smile appeared on his lips.

Whoosh!

He veered his course and did not imdiately head to the location Lu Chang had told him, but instead, made a surprising return.

At this mont, in a forest that Gu Chen had passed by earlier, there were more than a dozen people exploring sothing.

"How did this kid suddenly beco so much faster? We can't keep up with him at all," one of them said.

"Didn't you claim you were a master of tracking? Look closely and see in which direction this kid went," said a Grandmaster with furrowed brows as he examined the ground for Gu Chen's tracks.

"No good, he left no trace. I can't calculate where he might have gone," the Grandmaster said in a deep voice.

"How is that possible? Could he be a ghost? Even if he uses light-body techniques to travel so distance, he needs to leverage force, and leveraging force would inevitably leave traces," his companion argued, disbelieving and suspecting the Grandmaster was making excuses. After all, as he said, Gu Chen hadn't reached the Innate Realm and couldn't fly without touching the ground.

Even a Grandmaster-level martial artist using light-body techniques could only hover briefly and still needed to leverage force to move.

"Geese Passing Without Sound, Walking on Snow Without a Trace," said the man at the front, a mysterious person in a bamboo hat, in a hoarse voice.

"Moon Envoy, what do you an by that?" a martial artist asked softly, puzzled.

The mysterious person's voice was abnormally hoarse, as if his throat had suffered so injury, and explained, "This is a level of light-body technique. Even in the Tianyun Sect, known for their light-footed skills, only the sect's old sect leader, a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm in martial arts, has reached such an achievent.

I didn't expect that a young man of twenty-two could have such extraordinary accomplishnts in the art of light-body technique."

In the Nine Provinces, there were sects renowned for their body techniques, but few had reached such a realm. Therefore, it was not widely known among the martial fraternity, and many practitioners were unaware of it.

"Does this an, Moon Envoy sir, that because he has reached this level of light-body technique, this young man can run so fast and leave no trace?" another Grandmaster-level martial artist inquired.

The mysterious martial artist, the Moon Envoy, nodded slowly and said, "If he wants to run, it's not just us who can't catch him. Even the world wanderers from the Six Great Holy Lands, let alone the Young Master, would not be able to pursue him."

"That powerful?!" Hearing this, the group of Grandmaster-level martial artists voiced their astonishnt.

Young Master Lin Bai, with exceptional talent, was considered an incomparable genius throughout the Nine Provinces in the eyes of those from the Six Union God Sect. They believed that even the world wanderers from the Six Great Holy Lands could not rival Lin Bai, given the unique environnts and resources of the Holy Lands.

Now realizing that Gu Chen possessed such speed, surpassing even Lin Bai, they were naturally surprised and sowhat incredulous.

"This Gu Chen, claiming the title of the number one genius in the Nine Provinces before the Young Master erged, does seem to have so rit," the Moon Envoy in the bamboo hat said.

"What's the use of being fast? If it cos to a direct confrontation, he wouldn't last three moves against the Young Master," a Grandmaster-level martial artist argued.

"Three moves? I think that's giving him too much credit. The Young Master could probably end him in one move," another martial artist scoffed.

"Oh, is Lin Bai that formidable?"

Suddenly, a tall figure appeared out of nowhere, silent and abrupt, like a specter, startling everyone present.
