My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1276 - 1227: Fresh Wind Wu Is Nowhere to Be Found_2

The old man hadn’t completely died yet, as a faint breath of life still lingered. But in Sun Luyuan’s eyes, he was no different from a dead person.

It was as if his Divine Soul had been completely drained by these strange roots, leaving nothing but an empty husk.

"This is what Elder Xu spoke of, the Qingfeng Hall being guarded, and to think he had a Nascent Soul Stage cultivation base, yet died so unclearly and unjustly."

Sun Luyuan shook his head slightly.

His gaze left the body of the old man and swept through the interior of the Breeze Hall.

Moments later, he found a hidden entrance.

Heightening his alertness, Sun Luyuan strode through a barely visible green fissure.

A space that appeared somewhat vast and empty.

"Thud! Thud! Thud..."

The tremors of the earth kept on resounding.

Sun Luyuan followed the sound to its source, only to see a large tree that had grown a pair of human legs.

Running across the ground.

In the middle of the tree trunk, there was an extremely aged face.

At this moment, that tree face was filled with endless terror.

The great tree, while running frantically to the extreme, kept falling and rising again, as if its two legs were inadequate to support its body, yet it never ceased its running behavior.

It muttered to itself, "Once again, a Tribulation has come. Such terrifying sights, not even in my father’s most malicious curse have I seen!"

"But it never happened!"

"It’s not false, not false!"

...

The Tree People’s gibberish was filled with contradictions and it was completely impossible to discern his meaning.

However, it was still deeply trapped in its hysteria, and even Sun Luyuan’s attempts to communicate with him were futile.

"Ah Liu has gone mad."

Just then, a crisp female voice suddenly sounded in Sun Luyuan’s ear.

"Uh?" Sun Luyuan was startled.

For previously he had conducted a thorough search, and besides that Tree Person, there seemed to have been no one else.

But then Sun Luyuan remembered the task entrusted by Elder Xu.

Immediately, he asked, "Could it be Fresh Wind Daoist Friend?"

The female voice did not respond.

"I am here on behalf of Elder Xu to bring you back."

"According to him, this Spirit Tree has gone mad, its internal passageway can’t be used, and thus Fresh Wind Daoist Friend is trapped here."

Sun Luyuan continued speaking while carefully observing his surroundings.

He wanted to confirm the location of this "Fresh Wind".

Despite his Realm of Unification level of observational skill, he still couldn’t find the slightest clue.

"Ah Liu has gone mad." The female voice still didn’t respond directly and merely repeated this a few times.

Sun Luyuan couldn’t help but frown slightly, thinking that this female cultivator might also have been affected by the Demon Faces and gone mad.

"Ah Liu was my best companion. Now that it has gone mad, who will play with me in the future?"

Her mournful voice echoed in the rather small space.

Together with the periodic wails of the Tree Person Ah Liu, it sent chills down one’s spine.

Sun Luyuan, for some unknown reason, suddenly felt the same kind of alarm that had previously seized him while idly wandering through the Sacred Dynasty Daqi.

"Fresh Wind Daoist Friend..." Sun Luyuan braved himself and cleared his throat softly.

Although he did not know the relationship between the female cultivator named Fresh Wind and Elder Xu.

However, the fact that the usually stern and unyielding Elder Xu personally made an exception to ask him for a favor proved the depth of their connection.

Fortunately, events did not proceed as Sun Luyuan had anticipated.

Fresh Wind seemed to sob softly for a while, then finally emerged from her sorrow.

"So, Little Void sent you. It turns out he hasn’t forgotten about me."

A simple sentence from Fresh Wind made Sun Luyuan’s hair stand on end.

"Little Void? Xu Yuanyan?"

Sun Luyuan almost doubted that he had heard wrong.

Elder Xu had served as the chief of the Law Enforcement Hall for more than three thousand years, a true ancient monster.

Yet this girl, with a voice that sounded so young, called him Little Void...

If she wasn’t mad, then how old could she be?

And what exactly was her identity?

Countless thoughts flashed through Sun Luyuan’s Spirit Consciousness, but he dared not ponder them deeply and his demeanor became cautious.

He also dared not address her as "Fresh Wind Daoist Friend" anymore, and carefully revised his words, asking, "Senior, why do you not show yourself? Have I done something improper?"

After a brief silence in the space.

A somewhat peculiar voice of Fresh Wind sounded behind Sun Luyuan.

"I wasn’t always here?"

"Oh, right. I forgot that ordinary people can’t see me."

Fresh Wind’s words made Sun Luyuan’s cold sweat flow even more.

"Elder Xu said that someone will come to deal with this crazed Spirit Tree later. Please, senior, follow me back for now," Sun Luyuan hurriedly said.

"Ah! That’s great. I knew Ah Liu could still be saved," Fresh Wind exclaimed like a naive little girl, her mood lifting instantly.

"It’s all because that apocalyptic wailing scene was too scary and temporarily stupefied it. If you hadn’t come, I would have been without anyone to talk to for a long time."

Fresh Wind’s voice grew closer and closer to Sun Luyuan.

Eventually, it seemed to rest on his back.

"Alright then. I’ll listen to Little Void and leave here for now."

"The aura here has changed, it’s become quite uncomfortable."

Feeling the seemingly real weight on his back, Sun Luyuan’s heart raced, and he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Is it alright for the junior to just walk away?" he asked tentatively.

"Yes, I’m already lying on your back."

Fresh Wind’s words confirmed Sun Luyuan’s guess.

Sun Luyuan dared not linger and swiftly left the strange space.

The sound of the frenzied Spirit Tree continued to resound in that place.

"On our way back to the Immortal Alliance Headquarters?" Sun Luyuan, who was flying rapidly through the Misthaven Ocean as a streak of light, asked again.

"Don’t go there. That place feels uncomfortable. We’re going to Luoyan State."

Fresh Wind’s mood seemed to have improved, her tone somewhat cheerful.

"Luoyan State?" Sun Luyuan nodded.

Elder Xu’s task was simply to have Sun Luyuan escort Fresh Wind out and place her in a Breeze Hall in another state.

Sun Luyuan did not dwell on it and set out for Luoyan State.

All the while, he also pondered the true identity of the one on his back.

Owning the Immortal Artifact Boundless Mirror at home, Sun Luyuan considered himself to have seen much and to be very knowledgeable.

However, he had never heard of a strange existence like Fresh Wind before.

He couldn’t even begin to gauge the extent of Fresh Wind’s power.

Had Elder Xu sent him on such a long errand just out of concern that she might be trapped?

From this perspective, Fresh Wind’s power couldn’t have been too high.

But Fresh Wind’s odd phrasing and various strange behaviors made Sun Luyuan’s skin crawl.

Obviously, this existence called Fresh Wind, intangible and invisible, was far from simple.

Sun Luyuan secretly groaned and quickened his pace.

He wanted to complete the task as soon as possible to get rid of the other party.

Fresh Wind remained silent all the way.

And he was getting closer and closer to Luoyan State.

Just when relief seemed within reach, the sentence Fresh Wind suddenly blurted out sent Sun Luyuan into a chill like falling into an ice cave.

"You’re getting a bit impatient."

"It seems there are very few in this world who are good to me."
