Using the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Stage to perform a soul search on a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator naturally posed no difficulty at all.
Soon, the silver-robed man looked through all the recent memories of the black-robed elder.
Then, a silver flame emerged from the silver-robed manâs palm, turning the black-robed elder to ashes, leaving only a storage pouch.
âThunderous golden light, flood dragonâs roar, who on earth has Junâer offended?â
Recalling the situation seen from the black-robed elderâs Divine Soul memories, Kuanglei True Personâs expression subtly darkened, furrowed in thought.
Due to the unique environment of the Black Mist Marsh, which greatly obstructed Divine Sense and vision, the black-robed elder did not clearly see the true natures of the combatants. He merely glimpsed thunderous golden light cutting through the black mist from afar, occasionally spotting the silhouette of a flood dragon soaring in the fog, hearing its distant roaring.
This left Kuanglei True Person unable to discern the identity of the killer for the time being.
He frowned and pondered for a moment before muttering, âAfter killing Junâer, they didnât take Junâerâs Dharma treasures, are they afraid of the trap Iâve set inside, or is there another reason?â
Indeed, Zhou Chunâs concerns were not unfounded; Kuanglei True Person had indeed left special marks inside the Dharma treasures given to Wang Jun.
These marks left by a Nascent Soul Stage True Person were exceptionally covert; a Golden Core Stage Cultivator would need to refine the Dharma treasure to a very deep degree to discover them, or possibly never discover them at all!
And generally, cultivators who kill for treasures donât have the time to refine them immediately.
Now, Zhou Chun hadnât taken Wang Junâs Dharma treasures, leaving Kuanglei True Person without a way to track him. He could only return to the island where Wang Junâs corpse was located.
The corpses of Wang Jun and the Silver-Horned Rhino were still there. Kuanglei True Person glimpsed at the Silver-Horned Rhinoâs corpse and understood the manner of the demon beastâs death.
This also made his frown deepen; clearly, the killer came prepared, with a determined intention to kill Wang Jun.
Unfortunately, he was in such a hurry to get there to rescue, he didnât have the chance to ask Wang Jun why he came to the Black Mist Marsh, now he is completely in the dark regarding the situation.
Presently, he could only extend his Divine Sense to carefully inspect the remnants on the island.
There were many traces left on the island, as earlier it had undergone a fierce battle, almost shattering the island!
But besides the lingering cultivator and demon beast aura, Kuanglei True Person couldnât find anything useful for tracking the enemy.
This indicated that the killer didnât take long to slay Wang Jun and had ample time to clean and destroy the scene.
âBased on the life-saving items I left for Junâer, in theory, even if he encountered a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator, he could hold on for around two hours. Yet the aura left here indicates that the killerâs cultivation level at most reached Golden Core Middle Stage, and most likely was merely Golden Elixir Early Phase!â
âWhen did Junâer offend such a formidable enemy?â
Kuanglei True Person looked gravely at Wang Junâs body on the ground, already sensing a tricky situation.
He knew Wang Junâs strength well; even against a Sword Cultivator of the Nine Elements Sword Sect of similar cultivation level, it wouldnât necessarily end up losing his life.
After all, those top powerful sects have many Golden Core Stage cultivators; unless they are a direct disciple or bloodline descendant of a Nascent Soul Stage True Person, they couldnât receive the care akin to what Wang Jun received from Kuanglei True Person.
But now, from the siteâs situation, Wang Jun was likely killed solo by a cultivator of the same cultivation level, how could Kuanglei True Person not be astoundingly surprised?
He even suspected Wang Jun might have offended someone who is a direct disciple or bloodline descendant of another Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, hesitating to disclose due to the fear of repercussions, leading to his being killed using treasures bestowed by elders!
However, considering his understanding of this junior, if indeed he offended someone of such substantial background, it was unlikely he wouldnât inform him or Wang Junâs father.
âEnough thinking, the priority now is to find that killer!â
Shaking his head, Kuanglei True Person immediately verged into casting spells, carefully sensing a seemingly inconspicuous item within Wang Junâs storage pouch.
Thereâs some progress!
Kuanglei True Personâs eyes brightened suddenly, his sleeve waved, collecting Wang Junâs corpse into the storage pouch, then chased after the sensed direction.
The escape speed of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator is incredibly fast; within even just a quarter-hour, he arrived at the place where Zhou Chun concealed the storage pouch.
As soon as he raised his hand to unleash a mana wave into the water, the storage pouch hidden deep within the mud by Zhou Chun landed in his hand.
Yet upon seeing the storage pouch in his hand, his face held no trace of joy, instead exhibiting a truly unpleasant expression.
âSuch a cautious youngster!â
Kuanglei True Person cursed discreetly and could only tuck the storage pouch into his belt.
Shortly, his Divine Sense swept through, immediately revealing a surprised look, as he discovered the cave where the Bandit Cultivator Organization was hidden beneath the water.
âI didnât expect there to be such a concealed place beneath the Black Mist Marsh. Could the killer who slew Junâer deliberately lure me here?â
Kuanglei True Person showed a contemplative expression, seeming to hesitate whether or not to probe further.
Yet quickly he sneered coldly, without hesitation, transforming into a silver thunderbolt, diving into the water.
With Kuanglei True Personâs skills, even if a Fifth-order Demon King or Nascent Soul Stage cultivator existed underwater, what difference does it make?
At most, if he canât contend, he flees, is there any danger here that can really capture him?
