Chapter 679: Targeting Dao Spirit
Wang Lin’s figure gradually faded into the distance, and his final words were clearly meant for both Jiang Yun and Mu Shaofeng.
While Mu Shaofeng did sneak into Mountain-Sea World without Wang Lin’s knowledge in the past, the recent incident involving Gu Bulao driving away members of the Seeking Dao Sect made Wang Lin realize something.
Jiang Yun remained silent, standing still until Mu Shaofeng’s voice came from behind him after a moment, "Have you figured out what to do?"
At that moment, Mu Shaofeng’s face, which usually showed a smug expression, was now clouded with worry.
He was worried, and the Boundary Patroller was finally approaching.
Jiang Yun turned around, looked at Mu Shaofeng, and calmly said, "It seems that I cannot let you go free!"
Jiang Yun’s response caught Mu Shaofeng off guard at first, then he became a bit frustrated, "Why bring this up now!"
"At most, I’ll be stuck for a while longer. Seeking Dao Sect will definitely send help when the time comes. But what about you?"
After spending more than a year together, they had developed a bond with Jiang Yun.
However, Jiang Yun’s words now made him value this bond even more.
"If I can get out, maybe I can take you back to Seeking Dao Sect from Mountain-Sea World!"
"If all else fails, I can distract that Boundary Patroller and give you a chance to escape. Even if he’s from Dao God Temple, he won’t dare harm me!"
"But I can’t get out at all, Xue Mucheng, I really hate you!"
Mu Shaofeng’s shout, full of helplessness and anger, warmed Jiang Yun’s heart, "Give me a little more time!"
Mu Shaofeng instantly widened his eyes and asked, "Have you figured out a solution?"
Jiang Yun fell silent and entered the fourth formation, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. He held a jade slip in his hand.
Three days passed while Jiang Yun sat. He finally opened his eyes and handed the jade slip to Mu Shaofeng.
"Inside is my complete knowledge of formations, as well as some insights into the Nine Snow Loop Array."
"You, as a talented Taoist Child with higher cultivation and knowledge than me, if you concentrate and practice seriously, maybe one day you can unravel this formation yourself."
"You…"
Holding the jade slip, Mu Shaofeng was dumbfounded, looking at Jiang Yun as if he were a monster.
Even in the face of great danger, Jiang Yun didn’t forget about Mu Shaofeng, and even entrusted all his knowledge of formations to him.
What Jiang Yun did was tell him some things that almost everyone in the Tao World knows.
Little did he know, because of what he just said, Jiang Yun trusted and appreciated him even more.
"Okay, I’m leaving. Take care of yourself. If I really get caught and sent to Dao Prison, maybe you can come visit me if you get a chance!"
"Also, Snow clan are my friends. If you escape, please don’t cause any trouble with them!"
"Goodbye!"
Jiang Yun smiled slightly at Mu Shaofeng and then walked away.
"Don’t go, I have a plan!"
Suddenly shouting, Mu Shaofeng said, "Hide in this Nine Snow Loop Array. When the Boundary Patroller comes, he will surely destroy this array by force, and then I can be free. I will help you fight him!"
With his back to Mu Shaofeng, Jiang Yun shook his head and said, "No need. I’m not used to hiding when danger comes."
Actually, Jiang Yun never told Mu Shaofeng something.
He came to Nine Snow Loop Array to learn about formations, but his original plan was to hide in the formation and use its power to deal with Boundary Patroller!
However, when he saw Mu Shaofeng and eventually considered Mu Shaofeng a friend, especially after learning about the power of Dao God Temple, he had to give up on that idea.
Just like the reason he left The Great Wilderness Realm, he didn’t want to put his friends in danger!
Regardless of whether Dao God Temple would really care about Mu Shaofeng’s identity, even if they did, if Mu Shaofeng helped him, it would mean going against Dao God Temple.
And behind Mu Shaofeng, there is the whole Seeking Dao Sect.
Jiang Yun didn’t want the Seeking Dao Sect to become the next Desolate World tribe.
Mu Shaofeng hesitated for a moment, then with determination, he said, "Wait, if you give me this jade slip, I’ll give you something too!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared and reappeared by the snow grave where his physical body lay.
Mu Shaofeng pointed his finger with his spirit, and saw his body suddenly open its mouth, spitting out a wooden whip about a foot long!
The whip was in a dark golden color, with nine sections, each engraved with numerous runes.
As the whip appeared, Mu Shaofeng’s spirit became distorted and ethereal, as if it could disappear at any moment.
However, he tightly clenched his teeth, grabbed the whip, and teleported outside the first barrier, handing the whip to Jiang Yun, saying, "This is the Soul-Scattering Whip, ineffective against the physical body, but targets the spirit!"
"Also, this whip has no connection to the Seeking Dao Sect, so feel free to use it without worrying about being recognized."
The sound of breaking air behind him finally made Jiang Yun turn around and see Mu Shaofeng almost fading away. Jiang Yun grabbed the Soul-Scattering Whip.
Although he didn’t have a spirit, just holding the whip made his soul feel a tremor.
Obviously, this whip had great deterrent power against spirits and non-physical beings like souls.
It’s clear that this whip is extremely valuable, probably second only to a Dao Tool.
Mu Shaofeng grabbed the whip with his Dao Spirit body to keep it for himself, but he got hurt in the process.
Jiang Yun was touched but shook his head, saying, "This whip is too valuable, I can’t accept it!"
Mu Shaofeng grimaced and said, "Stop being so wishy-washy, I’m not giving it to you, just lending it to you temporarily!"
Mu Shaofeng didn’t have many true friends in his life, but Jiang Yun’s gift of the jade slip made him consider Jiang Yun as a friend.
So, he decided to lend the Soul-Scattering Whip to Jiang Yun.
"After you safely get through this ordeal, you must return it to me!"
"I’ll wait here for you. When you come back to help me break the Nine Snow Loop Array, I’ll take you to hide in the Seeking Dao Sect…"
Mu Shaofeng’s voice started trembling as holding the Soul-Scattering Whip made his Dao Spirit unable to continue.
At this point, Jiang Yun nodded firmly, clasped his hands together, and said to Mu Shaofeng, "I won’t forget your kindness. If I survive this time, I’ll definitely come back. Take care!"
Mu Shaofeng also struggled to raise his hands and bowed to Jiang Yun, saying, "Take care!"
With these words, Mu Shaofeng’s Dao Spirit suddenly turned into a beam of light and returned to the snow grave, falling into a deep sleep.
Jiang Yun gazed once more at the Nine Snow Loop Array in front of him, put away the Soul-Scattering Whip, then turned and walked out of the underwater area, stepping back onto the sea surface.
Jiang Yun took a deep breath as he looked at the endless sea before him, then spread his wings and flew towards Nanshan Province.
Although Wang Lin had hinted very clearly to Jiang Yun before leaving, Wang Lin didn’t know that Jiang Yun couldn’t reach his master Gu Bulao or find a way to leave the Mountain-Sea World.
Therefore, Jiang Yun only had one option before him – to fight!
Fight the Boundary Patrollers, fight the Dao God Temple!
