Let's start by analyzing the sun

After dinner, the sky was completely dark.

The speed of the airship squadron was reduced to half of its normal state, and the hull of each airship lit up with bright red lights that flashed continuously.

This was a very necessary safety measure.

Otherwise, in the pitch dark, what would happen if two adjacent airships got too close and accidentally collided?

Inside the first-class cabin.

Cheng Han was chatting with several merchants in the viewing lounge.

He had previously stated that he was traveling through various small spirit realms and had no plans to work for the time being, so no one was so tactless as to extend an invitation.

The topic of conversation naturally revolved around "traveling."

A chubby merchant asked with a smile, "Mr. Han, you must have been to many small spirit realms, right?"

When everyone exchanged greetings earlier, Cheng Han called himself "Han Cheng," which was a homophone of his real name in reverse.

Cheng Han told the truth: "I'm not very old, and I've only been to twenty-six small spirit realms, so I can't really say 'many.'"

Although he himself had only been to the Profound Palace and had not yet been to any small spirit realms outside of Tai'an, You Ming had been to many small spirit realms.

And what You Ming had seen and heard was the same as what he had seen and heard, so wasn't that the same as him going himself?

The logic was flawless!

The chubby merchant showed an appropriate look of admiration: "The Profound Palace has jurisdiction over one hundred and sixteen small spirit realms, and you've already been to a quarter of them. I estimate that no one here has been to more."

Another merchant with graying temples asked intentionally or unintentionally, "Mr. Han, which small spirit realms have left the deepest impression on you?"

It was obvious.

This guy didn't quite believe that he had been to so many small spirit realms, so he deliberately asked this question.

Cheng Han thought for a moment and began to talk eloquently: "Not long ago, I went to the 'Blue Copper Small Spirit Realm,' where the most famous thing is a 'Blue Copper Lake' covering an area of over three hundred square kilometers.

"The bottom of this lake is full of blue copper ore, so the lake water is dyed blue. About 80% of the copper coins circulating in the various small spirit realms come from this small spirit realm."

The chubby merchant played the role of a straight man and immediately echoed: "I went to the Blue Copper Small Spirit Realm once six years ago, and the Blue Copper Lake was indeed very beautiful."

Cheng Han continued, "The 'Nine Peaks Small Spirit Realm' is famous for its nine peaks, each of which is over two thousand meters high. Apart from that, you can't see a single mountain over five hundred meters.

"The most interesting thing is that the first character of the names of the nine peaks are all numbers, from one to nine respectively, which is really impressive.

"I didn't stay for a long time, and only climbed two peaks. You can see two rivers from 'Two Rivers Peak,' and there are four mountain springs on 'Four Springs Peak.'

"The 'Anliang Small Spirit Realm' has the most stone towers of all kinds, which can almost be said to be everywhere. The locals call the stone towers 'Resting Towers'..."

Cheng Han spoke about six small spirit realms in one breath, not only listing the most famous scenery of these small spirit realms in detail, but also introducing a lot of cultural and customs content.

The merchant with graying temples gave a dry laugh: "Mr. Han, you are indeed knowledgeable and admirable!"

A group of merchants nodded repeatedly, with no trace of doubt in their hearts.

Anyone with a little common sense would understand that if they had not been to the above-mentioned small spirit realms, it would be absolutely impossible to be so clear about the various details.

Cheng Han glanced out the window and said, "Now that we've talked about the Nine Peaks Small Spirit Realm, I estimate that the airship squadron is about to reach the airship parking station of Nine Peaks."

Another merchant said with admiration, "Mr. Han is truly insightful! I just asked the steward and learned that the 'Nine Peaks Station' is only a dozen kilometers ahead."

Cheng Han smiled slightly and explained, "I've taken a few long-distance airship flights before, so I have a slight impression of the passing stations."

This was not a lie.

Indeed, a You Ming was playing the role of a traveler and had taken airships more than once or twice.

At the same time.

Cheng Han quietly issued an order in his heart: "Everyone, let's start the hunt!"

"Buzz!"

The sound of strings vibrating rose.

Responses sounded in order.

"As you command!"

"Understood!"

The reason why Cheng Han deliberately appeared in the viewing lounge and chatted with this group of merchants was to create an "alibi."

Hehe!

I'm just quietly traveling on an airship, and I haven't done anything!

Besides.

This is something that You Ming did, what does it have to do with me?

Inside a single cabin.

A small, black seed was placed on the narrow table.

"Pa!"

The seed suddenly burst open.

Several black vines silently sprang out.

One vine extended over and opened the leather suitcase.

Another vine followed closely, joining forces with the first vine to quickly unfold the folding drawing rack and place a brand new piece of white paper on it.

Several thinner vines, with incredible dexterity, wrapped around several pencils and began to fly rapidly across the paper.

"Sha! Sha!"

Accompanied by dense friction sounds, a painting gradually took shape.

This was actually a city scene.

On the screen.

More than a dozen tall stone towers, each over twenty meters high, were depicted most clearly.

Most of the remaining objects, such as houses, roads, and trees, were drawn quite simply, with only a rough outline.

Many small black dots were slowly moving on the screen.

Without a doubt.

This was a Secret Cosmos Spirit Map.

*

Anliang Small Spirit Realm.

This small spirit realm has a total of four cities, located in the four directions of the spirit leaf, and the naming method is quite simple and crude, namely Andong, Annan, Anxi, and Anbei.

Under the night.

Anxi City was already a scene of thousands of lights.

On the top of a stone tower located in the south of the city, also known as the "Resting Tower," a man in black was standing quietly.

Each floor of the stone tower had many stone walls in the corridor, on which were carved pieces of spirit leaf-shaped patterns, with a name engraved in each spirit leaf.

These were the names of the deceased.

And the meaning of "resting" in the Resting Tower is to pray that the deceased can obtain eternal rest under the protection of the spirit leaf.

At this time.

The man in black looked down at a certain light, and suddenly said softly, "The master said that in transcendental combat, the distance of engagement is the most critical core element."

Several echoing voices immediately came from the soul link.

"That's right! No matter how strong the combat power is, no matter how powerful the profound art is, if you can't reach your opponent at all, it's all in vain."

"The maximum attack distance of a high-level profound practitioner will not exceed five hundred meters, while the maximum for a high-level profound master can reach two kilometers, so a profound master can completely crush a profound practitioner."

"Although our strength is not as good as that of a profound master, we are firmly invincible in this hunt."

"The master has a Secret Cosmos Spirit Map, which can help us remotely lock onto the target, and we can launch an attack on the enemy even if they are ten kilometers away."

Every wisp of relevance captured by the Secret Cosmos Spirit Map, "binding" the target's transcendental brand, is naturally an excellent guide.

And this is the real use of the spirit map!

Of course.

The premise for doing so is that you must master the ultimate skill of ultra-long-range attack.

And You Ming happens to have it.

That is – the God-Darkening Spirit-Extinguishing Spear.

What's more, this powerful divine skill derived from the Secret Cosmos Profound Seal also has a crucial characteristic – it never gets lost!

"Whoosh!"

A gust of evening wind swept past.

Blowing the man in black's clothes fluttering.

His gaze locked onto a house eight kilometers away, and he smiled: "In the ranks of profound masters, we are invincible!"
