408: Chapter 408: Searching for a Way Out

In fact, Li Dafeng and the others withheld an important piece of information from her, which was that Lin Yifan had stored the millennium Blood Ginseng in a Silk Pouch and hung it on his belt, not in his backpack.

Angered to the point of explosion, the landlord grandma ignited the Channeling Herb in her hand in an instant and casually threw it away, letting it burn out.

After adjusting her mindset, she continued to rummage through the backpack to see if she could find the millennium Blood Ginseng.

But after searching high and low, she found nothing, ultimately confirming that the millennium Blood Ginseng was not in the backpack.

“Could the millennium Blood Ginseng have escaped on its own?”

She noticed a tear on the backpack that looked as if it had been slashed by a sharp branch; thus, she suspected that the millennium Blood Ginseng might have escaped through this tear.

Besides that, another puzzle bothered her, where had Lin Yifan’s body gone?

It couldn’t have truly disintegrated into dust.

After all, most people who fell into an abyss tended to still have their bodies intact.

Feeling that sothing was fishy, she followed the river, searching ceaselessly as she moved forward.

As she walked on, she reached the end of the bottomless abyss; at this point, the small river flowed into a cave.

The distance between the water’s surface and the cave ceiling was very short, less than two fingers wide, almost entirely subrged; hence, there was no path forward.

Basically, this was an underground river, just that the section at the abyss was exposed, misleading people into thinking it was a regular river.

With no way forward, if she wanted to continue her search, she had to dive into the water and follow the river’s course.

After so thought, she decided to risk it all for the millennium Blood Ginseng, so she used her Cultivation Power to protect her body, and then she dove into the river, moving onwards with the underground river.

Since the cave was not completely subrged, she was able to breathe above the surface; and this was one of the reasons why Lin Yifan had not drowned.

She swam over a hundred kiloters before erging from the underground river.

At this ti, she faced a waterfall a hundred ters tall.

If a regular person erged here and fell down, they would definitely be shattered to pieces.

Fortunately, the landlord grandma was a powerful Cultivator, which allowed her to use Qinggong to fly down safely.

“Swoosh!”

Descending slowly along the waterfall, she quickly landed on the ground.

At this mont, she was not even wet, because her strong Cultivation Power protected her and kept water from touching her body.

She searched the water lake below the waterfall for a while and, finding no trace of Lin Yifan’s body, she proceeded to search down along the river.

She refused to believe that she would not find any trace of Lin Yifan’s body.

But as she searched and searched, she still couldn’t find Lin Yifan’s body.

Along the way, she passed through several countries and had fights with locals, tribal warriors, and national armies, from which she erged victorious every ti.

As a powerful Cultivator like herself, it would only take a wave of her hand to obliterate a small country, so those soldiers from the armies of Feizhou were no match for her.

Only the atomic and hydrogen bombs of Shenzhou Country were objects of her apprehension.

Continuing her search along the river, she encountered crocodile-infested waters, hippopotamus territories, and regions swarming with piranhas; she did not know whether Lin Yifan’s body, carried by the river currents, had been devoured by these bloodthirsty creatures lurking in the waters.

With a glimr of hope, she continued her search downstream until the river flowed into the vast ocean, where she finally ceased.

She had not found Lin Yifan’s body nor the millennium Blood Ginseng; at this point, she could only return to Shenzhou Country to confront Li Dafeng and others for a clear explanation.

Returning to Guiyuan City, she urgently summoned Li Dafeng to ask where exactly Lin Yifan had placed the millennium Blood Ginseng.

When she learnt that Lin Yifan had the millennium Blood Ginseng hanging at his waist, she instantly despaired.

Because she felt very likely that Lin Yifan’s body had been devoured by crocodiles or so other animals; and the Blood Ginseng hanging on his waist might also suffer the sa fate.

Seeing his Master so despondent, Li Dafeng asked with a guilty heart, “Master, is Lin Yifan dead?”

“Dead?

He’s gone without even remains left.” The landlord’s grandmother replied very despondently.

Falling from such a high abyss, even if he was a cultivator, he would have died: only if he was a warrior of the True Master Realm could there perhaps be a chance of survival, but even then he would have been gravely injured.

Hearing the news of Lin Yifan’s death, the last shred of hope in Li Dafeng’s heart also shattered; he had been preparing to make ands with Lin Yifan, but now it seed there was no need.

“Brother Lin!

I’m sorry!

I’m really sorry!” Li Dafeng was filled with guilt and self-reproach.

With the loss of the millennium Blood Ginseng, the landlord’s grandmother had no choice but to change her plans and send people to inquire about the whereabouts of the Bright True Master.

Now, the Bright True Master was An Qi’s only lifeline, she absolutely had to find the Bright True Master.

Actually, when she snuck into the underground river, she had overlooked a secret passage, which led to Peach Blossom Valley.

When Lin Yifan had been swept into this place by the river, he was suddenly absorbed by a strong undercurrent; then he resurfaced and continued to drift.

Eventually, he erged from a spring’s eye and was washed ashore in Peach Blossom Valley.

Opportunities often vanish in an instant, if you can’t seize them, you can only look for another way out, or take things step by step.

All these things had happened several days ago, at that ti, Lin Yifan was still recuperating in bed, unaware of these events.

After brooding for a short while, Lin Yifan continued wandering in Peach Blossom Valley, looking for a way out.

He discovered that Peach Blossom Valley was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and they were all towering cliffs, which made it difficult for him to climb out.

Afterward, he followed the river flowing forward to find a way out.

However, as he walked, he encountered a dead end just like the landlord’s grandmother had encountered at the bottom of the abyss.

The river’s water flowed underground, its destination unknown.

“Could there be an underground river below?” He thought it was very likely.

Afterward, he wanted to jump into the water to explore.

However, at that mont, he was controlled by a force, unable to move.

Undoubtedly, this was a power exerted by the Peach Blossom Valley Venerable, intended to prevent him from finding a way out.

Seeing this, Lin Yifan had no choice but to give up the idea and return the way he ca.

Every inch of land, every space in Peach Blossom Valley was watched by a pair of eyes; he could only wait for these eyes to close before making his stealthy getaway.

There must be a way out beneath the end of the river; otherwise, the Peach Blossom Valley Venerable wouldn’t have stopped him from entering the water.

With this information, it was enough; what he had to do next was just one thing, and that was to wait.

At night, waiting until the dead of night, when everything was quiet, he would stealthily leave his room and then use the scent of the millennium Blood Ginseng to find the Blood Ginseng.

The scent of the millennium Blood Ginseng had beco familiar to him and engraved in his mory, so as long as he could sll it, the Blood Ginseng could no longer escape his grasp.
