Gu Yuan coughed slightly, walked up to Ning Buxiu, and said, "Uncle Ning, since we don't have enough manpower now, why bother looking far away? Don't we have a Dongtian Paradise sect in Jiaocheng?"
"You mean...Shenguang Sect?"
"That's right." Gu Yuan nodded, "There are many disciples of the Shenguang Sect, and they are also the closest to us. If we can invite their people over, they will definitely be of great help."
Ning Buxiu smiled bitterly: "If this were done in other places, it might really work, but the Divine Light Sect is special."
"ah?"
"To be honest, although Shenguang Sect is also within the scope of Jiao City, we rarely interact with people from Shenguang Sect." Ning Buxiu explained.
"Yes, Shenguang Sect doesn't like to get involved in these things." Ge Meng also said.
In fact, what he said was very tactful.
To put it bluntly, even if they ask for help, the Shenguang Sect will be hung high and they will not be given any face.
Of course, the Shenguang Sect is not just like this to the Demon Suppression Division. They also don't deal with other cave heaven paradises, so they really can't find fault.
Gu Yuan heard the meaning of Ning Buxiu and Ge Meng's words, and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "I don't know what Shenguang Sect would do in the past, but now at this juncture, if Uncle Ning sends someone to Shenguang Sect, Ask for help and tell the truth about the situation here, maybe they will be willing to help.”
"Oh?" Ning Buxiu was a little surprised, "Why is this?"
"The Supreme Elder of Shenguang Sect has just broken through to S level and entered the Divine Soul Realm. Now is the time to test the sword. An A level monster will definitely arouse the opponent's interest." Gu Yuan said succinctly.
"Soul realm?" Ning Buxiu was a little surprised.
They really don't have this news yet.
In the country of Daxia, there was suddenly a powerful person in the Soul Realm. This was no small matter. Even Guanlong Mountain should pay great attention to it.
It happened that this new powerful man in the Divine Soul Realm was the Supreme Elder of Shenguang Sect. Ning Buxiu, as the sword holder of Jiaocheng, knew nothing about this. If Guanlongshan knew about this, he would be considered a major mistake.
In fact, this is not his fault. The Shenguang Sect is not willing to deal with the Demon Suppression Department and the Demon Slayer Department at all. So what if he is the sword holder of Jiao City? If someone doesn't give you face, you still don't give face.
No temper at all!
But after listening to Gu Yuan's words, Ning Buxiu believed that Gu Yuan's speculation was very reasonable. Just like the computer at home had just been upgraded to 4090ti, it was definitely unreasonable not to play two games.
So, he immediately called Chu Can to him.
"Go to the Shenguang Sect and tell them the situation here. See if the Shenguang Sect is willing to help. Don't be tough, be gentle, and show an attitude of asking for help."
Chu Can nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Mr. Ning, I understand!"
"Yeah." Ning Buxiu nodded.
After Chu Can left, he turned to Gu Yuan and said, "Although Chu Can is young, he still handles things very safely."
Gu Yuan smiled and nodded: "I can tell."
He had had many interactions with Chu Can before, and he could feel that the other person was a relatively calm person.
the other side.
Cao Panxing had already put away the brush. She was holding the disk in one hand and holding a stone tightly in the other hand.
Gu Yuan took a closer look, wasn't that the formation stone?
At the beginning, he had given Cao Panxing a formation stone. In fact, he had borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha. After all, the formation stone was given to him by Chen Ling.
After observation, Gu Yuan discovered that the formation stone that Cao Panxing was holding tightly in his hand was not the one he had given to him when he was still at Xingcheng Martial Arts Academy. The one that Yuan gave him as a gift was much smaller.
When Cao Panxing grabbed the formation stone, his lips moved and he muttered words, as if he was reciting some complicated formula. Immediately, the formation stone in his hand began to emit a faint light.
The light turned into spots of light, formed a path, and poured into the disk. At first glance, it seemed like seeing a river of stars in the darkness.
When those light spots began to be swallowed up by the disk, the formation stone held tightly in Cao Panxing's hand was melting rapidly like a piece of ice, and the pointer on the disk that had been spinning slowly stopped at this time. When it comes down, there is only a slight swing at most.
Cao Panxing's breathing began to become rapid, and the originally rosy complexion was now a little pale. Gu Yuan immediately realized that it was not just the formation stone in Cao Panxing's hand that was being consumed, but she herself had also had a huge consumption.
Gu Yuan looked at Cao Panxing's appearance at this moment and felt a little worried.
"How about it? If it doesn't work, think of other ways, don't hold on too much."
Cao Panxing has not been in the capital for long. Even if she has made progress, it is still too difficult for her to have the ability to search for A-level monsters now.
And he also knew that Cao Panxing had always been a very strong person, whether he was studying in school as an ordinary person or in the martial arts academy, working hard to study formations even if he had nothing.
After all, at that time, Cao Panxing had too few things to compare with others, and studying this matter was considered a fair field for her.
When Cao Panxing heard Gu Yuan's words, he just smiled and shook his head, saying that he was fine. Then he turned to look at Ning Buxiu and said: "Captain Ning, with my ability, I can only roughly judge the opponent based on the remaining breath." The approximate direction is impossible to pinpoint. If you want to be precise, you may need a more powerful formation master. At the very least, you must be an A-level one."
Of course, Ning Buxiu would not be disappointed. He also felt that his request was a bit too much for Cao Panxing. After all, she was just a little girl. Even if she couldn't find any clues, he could still accept it.
That is to say, Cao Panxing and Gu Yuan are classmates, which makes Ning Buxiu have more confidence in her. As the sword holder of Jiaocheng, Ning Buxiu is an A-level master, and of course he knows how difficult it is to search for an A-level monster.
But what he didn't expect was that Cao Panxing actually gained something. This can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
"It doesn't matter. If we have the direction, it will save us a lot of time!" Ning Buxiu said overjoyed.
He came closer and took a look at the disk in Cao Panxing's hand. He pondered for a moment and said, "It's actually in the west?"
"Well, to be precise, it's in the southwest direction. The distance can't be controlled..."
"That's good." Ning Buxiu laughed.
Gu Yuan discovered that Ning Buxiu was obviously a little surprised when he discovered that the pointer on the disk pointed to the southwest.
"Uncle Ning, where is this place in the southwest?"
"Then we're leaving Jiaocheng." Ning Buxiu said in a deep voice.
Gu Yuan was a little surprised.
"So, that monster wants to escape from Jiao City quickly?"
"It's hard to say now..." Ning Buxiu turned to Ge Meng and said, "Leave two people to stay here, and the others will set off immediately to search for traces of monsters along the southwest direction."
"yes!"
After getting the direction, Ning Buxiu breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that they didn't need to wander around like headless flies.
For this alone, Cao Panxing has made a great contribution.
When they got to the car, Cao Panxing and Gu Yuan sat in the back row together, the former still holding the disc in his hand.
Ge Meng was in charge of driving, while Ning Buxiu sat in the back seat.
"Xiao Cao, your search method will probably consume all your formation stones, right?"
"As long as we can find the monster, everything will be worth it." Cao Panxing said immediately.
Only then did Gu Yuan notice that there was no trace of the formation stone in the hand that Cao Panxing was holding.
"Where is the formation stone? Is it really missing?" he asked doubtfully.
"One more thing." Cao Panxing spread his hands. The formation stone that was originally about the size of a baby's fist is now about the size of a peanut.
Gu Yuan suddenly took a breath and felt speechless.
This consumption speed is too fast!
"This is not the piece you gave me originally. The piece you gave me is still there." Cao Panxing suddenly whispered.
"Ah?" Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment. In fact, Cao Panxing didn't need to explain at all. Gu Yuan had already figured it out before. Besides, it didn't seem to matter whether it was right or not. He had already given the formation stone to Cao Panxing. Panxing is not lent to the other party. How to use it is all the other party's business! Is it possible that I will jump out to express dissatisfaction?
"You have to use it!" Gu Yuan said with a smile, "I have given it to you anyway, but I didn't expect that this thing will be consumed so quickly. If I have a chance in the future, I will give you another sack."
Cao Panxing couldn't laugh or cry: "What nonsense are you talking about? Even in the whole world, there are not many such formation stones. I heard from my teacher that the formation stones that the formation master needs to use are originally extraterrestrial objects."
"Extraterrestrial objects?"
"Well... it's probably an extraterrestrial meteorite, extremely rare in number." Cao Panxing explained.
"So, this thing is indeed a consumable? That's really strange. I remember when I was at the Martial Arts Academy, you had never seen anything like this when using the Formation Stone!"
"Actually, every time I use the formation stone, it will be consumed. But at that time, my strength was average, and the formation was relatively simple. Even if the formation stone was consumed, the subtle consumption was difficult to detect with the naked eye. "Cao Panxing explained.
Gu Yuan suddenly realized.
Ning Buxiu, who was sitting in front, said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. When you catch the monster this time, Xiao Cao, you will have done a great job. I will definitely apply to get you a piece. At least, it will be larger than the one you used before." !”
Cao Panxing nodded quickly: "Thank you so much, Master Ning, but you still have to find the monster first."
"Yeah." The smile on Ning Buxiu's face faded again.
As the car drove all the way to the southwest, Gu Yuan observed the situation outside the car. The surroundings were becoming more and more desolate.
"This is already the suburb of Jiaocheng. If we drive further, we will leave Jiaocheng." Ge Meng, who was driving, said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Panxing, who was sitting next to Gu Yuan, suddenly sat upright and stared at the disc in his hand.
Gu Yuan glanced at it and immediately discovered that the pointer on the disc in Cao Panxing's hand began to shake again, and the amplitude was quite large.
"Wait... Captain Ge, turn left!"
"Huh?" Ge Meng was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned the steering wheel and turned onto another road.
"The monster... doesn't seem to have left Jiaocheng." Cao Panxing said with a serious expression.
"Going further..." Ge Meng suddenly changed his expression and turned to look at the co-pilot Ning Buxiu, "Could it be that place?!"
