"Endless Sea?" Yun Lintian was surprised slightly. No wonder no one could find their whereabouts until now.
"Yes. What do you think this sister is doing in these three months?" Han Bingling pursed her lips. "Sister has meticulously checked every single place in my Northern Continent and found nothing. Hence, the only possibility is that they are hiding in the Endless Sea."
Yun Lintian found it was made sense. Regarding the Endless Sea, he didn't know much about it, but it was indeed an excellent place to hide. After all, it was too vast.
"Thank you for telling me this. I suggest you send someone to watch this Peng clan. Since they are blatantly exposing themselves like this, your Frozen Moon Palace is probably nothing in their eyes." Yun Lintian said.
"Heh…" Han Bingling snorted coldly. "I'll wait for you in the divine city. Don't forget to contact me when you arrive." Following that, she ended the connection.
Yun Lintian shook his head and put the transmission jade away. He turned to Yang Chen and said. "Let's go to the divine city."
Yang Chen hesitated for a moment and complied in the end. He didn't want to drag Yun Lintian in his matter, but it seemed impossible now.
The four of them immediately set off toward the Profound Sky Divine City.

"Who are you talking with, Master?" In a plain bamboo's house, Lin Xinyao asked Han Bingling, who sat opposite her.
"It's my acquaintance." Han Bingling was still hiding Yun Lintian's matter from Lin Xinyao as she thought it was fun. She turned to an old woman on the side and said. "Sister Lin, my acquaintance found a clue about the Peng clan. It seems they have something to do with Poison Valley."
The old woman had an appearance similar to a typical old woman in her eighties. It was quite surprising that she was called 'Sister' by Han Bingling since they didn't seem to be the same generation. Her messy long grey-colored hair was freely hanging on her shoulder. It looked as though she had never combed it for ages.
Even though her oval face was full of wrinkles, it did not hide that she was a beauty when she was young. Her long brows were drooping down slightly, and underneath them were a pair of beautiful eyes that already lost all brilliance. When you looked closely, you would discover there was no focus in her eyes at all. It was natural; she was blinded.
This old woman was Lin Zixuan, Lin Xinyao's blood-related aunt and a good sister of Han Bingling.
"Is your acquaintance reliable?" Lin Zixuan asked. Surprisingly, her voice was full of magnetism that could easily attract anyone's attention.
"All the clues I got previously were coming from him." Han Bingling replied.
Lin Zixuan went silent for a moment and said. "If that's the case, everyone in Northern Continent is in danger now."
Han Bingling took a deep breath, and her expression turned solemn. She had known Lin Zixuan for hundreds of years, Lin Zixuan never said something casual on a serious matter. Since she said this, Han Bingling had to listen.

As Yun Lintian's group approached the divine city, Yun Lintian saw a long line of carriages and practitioners slowly moving in the divine city's direction. Although he knew the academy's recruitment date was close, he didn't expect there would still be these numerous people coming. Estimating with his eyes, Yun Lintian believed there were more than ten thousand people here.
"Were there many people like this when you arrived last time?" Yun Lintian turned to ask Yang Chen.
Yang Chen nodded. "There were even more than this."
Yun Lintian said nothing further and patiently joined the line.
Two hours later, Yun Lintian's group was about twenty kilometers from the Profound Sky Divine city. When Yun Lintian looked in the city's direction, he was immediately attracted by a white radiance floating above an exceptionally large white city. Although the city was twenty kilometers away, it was huge to the point that he could not see the other side of the city.
"This aura…" Yun Lintian frowned slightly, trying to recall a familiar feeling coming out of the white radiance.
"It's divine energy." Linlin suddenly transmitted sounds to Yun Lintian. "Big Brother Yun should have contacted with this energy when you found me back then."
Yun Lintian immediately remembered the feelings when he touched Linlin back then. It was indeed similar to this aura.
"How could divine energy appear here?" Yun Lintian wondered.
"This city might be a divine artifact," Linlin replied. Although she didn't know much about her past, she possessed a lot of ancient era knowledge passed down from Bai Xiaoyun before departing.
"A divine artifact?" Yun Lintian was surprised, as he never thought there would be such a city-type artifact.
"What's wrong, Brother Yun?" Yang Chen noticed Yun Lintian's thoughtful expression and asked.
Yun Lintian turned to Yang Chen and said. "Is that white radiance always there?"
Yang Chen raised his head to look at the white radiance above the divine city and said. "Yes. It's never disappeared. I heard that it could protect a monarch's full power strike."
"Really?" Yun Lintian felt strange. Without further ado, he opened Eyes of Heaven to look at the white radiance.
What came to his sight was a group of immensely ethereal energy that did not belong to this world. Yun Lintian believed that if he could absorb this energy, his strength would definitely skyrocket faster than the time he obtained the Thunder and White Tiger God's Origin Blood.
Yun Lintian looked around for a while and found nothing besides it. He turned to Yang Chen and asked. "Do we have to pay anything to enter the city?"
Yang Chen shook his head. "It's free, Brother Yun. However, the entrance process is extremely strict. Not only do you have to drop your blood, but you also have to let them check your Profound Vein as well."
"That strict?… How did you hide your Profound Vein?" Yun Lintian was surprised.
Yang Chen smiled mysteriously. "They couldn't detect my profound vein."
Yun Lintian was rendered speechless as he thought Yang Chen had used some tricks.
