"Split up and act separately, regroup after bypassing the checkpoint."
Nangong Yingying's purple eyes carried confusion, but seeing Gu Sheng's confident expression, she didn't ask further questions.
"Be careful."
The two immediately separated; Gu Sheng's figure blended into the night like a ghost, while Nangong Yingying transformed into a stream of purple light and vanished from the spot.
However, just as Gu Sheng landed and was about to stealthily move forward, an invisible spiritual power suddenly locked onto him.
"Hmph!"
Gu Sheng let out a cold snort, and golden ripples in his Sea of Consciousness spread, shaking off the spiritual force.
"Oh?"
A surprised voice rang out.
The next moment, a middle-aged man in a purple robe appeared before Gu Sheng.
The man's face was stern, his eyes like lightning, exuding a powerful aura all around him.
"Fourth Level Sect Realm..."
Gu Sheng's heart tightened, but outwardly he remained calm.
