Shen Luo sighed lightly, slowly closed his eyes, and sped up the refining of several treasures in his body.
He did not tell Yan Wu Shi or the young master about his guesses, because they were all unfounded speculations. If he was right, it would be fine, but if he was wrong, it would not only be embarrassing, but the young master would also look down on him.
The Spirit Crab Flying Boat sped forward like a meteor, and soon an hour passed.
With Shen Luo's current understanding of the Innate Treasure Refining Art, it didn't take him much effort to refine the Xuanhuang Yiqi Stick, which he had already mastered most of the restrictions. At this moment, he was refining the Thousand Dou Golden Zun when a deafening whistling sound suddenly came from the front.
He quickly opened his eyes and looked forward.
In the boundless sea of sand ahead, a sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun arose and rolled in like a tide, instantly submerging the Spirit Crab Flying Boat, leaving no escape at all.
Gusts of sandstorms hit the Spirit Crab Flying Boat fiercely. At this moment, all the functions of the Spirit Crab Flying Boat were concentrated on flying, and its defense was insufficient. It was hit violently by the sandstorm and immediately swayed from side to side.
"Reduce the speed by 20% and enhance the defense capability of the flying boat. It cannot be deviated by the sandstorm." The young master and others had already walked out of the closed room and said when they saw this situation.
Elder Fu agreed, and a green light flashed under his feet. Four of the eight crab legs were retracted, and the green shield around the Spirit Crab Flying Boat suddenly became much more stable, resisting the impact of the sandstorm and no longer shaking.
The young master nodded upon seeing this, and turned to look at Shen Luo. Shen Luo understood, and sensing the location of the magic mark, his expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong?" The young master asked with a fixed look on his face when he saw this.
"Things are a bit strange. I left five magic marks in the Doll City that day. Now four of them are moving towards the northeast, and the remaining one is moving towards the southwest. Both are moving very fast." Shen Luo did not hide anything and told everything he sensed.
"The mark has separated? Why is that?" The young master was stunned.
Shen Luo didn't understand either. If Gui Yan had noticed the existence of the mark, he should have destroyed it directly. What did it mean to split it into two now
"Could it be that Gui Yan knew we were heading there and wanted to mislead us in this way?" An idea suddenly popped into his mind, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not likely.
The young master, Elder Fu, Mo Wang, and Elder Mei looked at each other, their lips moving occasionally, obviously communicating with each other.
Yan Wushi and other disciples of Tianji City also heard the conversation just now, and they all showed surprise on their faces, but they all waited quietly on the side and no one spoke nonsense.
The young master and others quickly finished their discussion and came over.
"The mark is split into two. It may be because something happened in the Doll City, or it may be due to some other reasons. But no matter what, this is the only chance to capture Gui Yan, and we can't let it go. After discussion, we decided to split the troops into two groups. One group will be led by Elder Fu and me, and the other group will be led by Elder Mei and Elder Mowang, to chase the marks on both sides respectively." said the young master.
Shen Luo was not surprised by the young master's decision, nor did he question it. Yan Wu Shi and other disciples of Tianji City naturally had no objection.
The young master then began to assign teams, and Shen Luo was assigned to the side of Elder Mei and Elder Mo Wang.
