Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 729 Being followed

In the night-shrouded Spirit Beast Mountain Range, Ying and Zhang Tao were standing on the edge of an open area, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation. Although they have completed their mission, they have not relaxed their vigilance because there are still many unknown dangers lurking in the dark in this mountain range.

Ying remained silent, as if thinking about some important issue. He glanced at Zhang Tao beside him and saw that the latter was scratching his head, looking like he was hesitant to speak. He knew that Zhang Tao must have many questions in his heart that he wanted to ask himself, but he didn't know how to ask them.

"I know what you are thinking." Ying finally broke the silence and said in a calm tone, "You are thinking why Mr. Payne let you carry out the mission alone, right?"

 Zhang Tao nodded and smiled sheepishly: "Yes, I really can't figure it out. Although I have always wanted to prove myself, this mission is very dangerous after all, sir..."

"Mr. Payne has his own considerations." Ying interrupted Zhang Tao, with a hint of unquestionable firmness in his voice, "He asked you to carry out the mission alone, not because he didn't care about your safety, but because He believes that you have the ability to complete this mission. He knows that you have been working hard to improve yourself, and he also knows that you have unknown potential and talents, so he will give you this opportunity to face challenges alone and grow into a person. A true warrior."

Hearing Ying’s words, Zhang Tao’s eyes flashed with emotion and determination. He knew that what Ying said was right. Mr. Payne has always cared about him and has been silently supporting him. Although this mission is dangerous, it is also a rare opportunity for him to prove his strength and worth.

"Moreover, you are not fighting alone." Ying continued, "You still have my partner by your side. We have experienced many challenges and dangers together, and have defeated many powerful enemies together. I believe that as long as we If we work together, we will be able to complete this mission and return to the academy safely.”

Ying's words made Zhang Tao feel warm and reassured. He knows that he is not alone. With a partner like Ying by his side to support him, he will be able to overcome all difficulties and challenges.

At this moment, Zhang Tao suddenly remembered something and said: "Ying, the question you asked me before, about why spiritualists' perception becomes weaker at night... Actually, I heard some senior seniors say it in the college before. Have some relevant knowledge.”

"Oh? Tell me." Ying said with some interest.

"It is said that the spiritual master's perception ability is closely related to the engraved mark on the body of the God King." Zhang Tao began to explain, "Different engraved marks on the body of the God King correspond to different elemental perceptions. Just like the spiritual master with the wind attribute mark on the wind It’s like being particularly sensitive to elements. This kind of perception is not only the perception of elements, but also the perception of the surrounding environment and the dynamics of people through the elements.”

Ying nodded to express his understanding: "In other words, a wind spiritualist can judge a person's movements and position by sensing the flow of the wind?"

"That's right!" Zhang Tao clapped his hands excitedly and said, "The flow of wind has a trajectory, and once there is an obstacle, the trajectory will change. A spiritualist can judge a person's position by sensing this change. The same is true for fire. Elemental magicians can sense the presence of people by feeling changes in temperature within a certain range, while earth elemental magicians can judge the location of people by sensing the density of dust. This is why spiritualists can sense enemies in the dark. "The reason." Listening to Zhang Tao's explanation, Ying couldn't help but marvel at the magic and mystery of the spiritual master. It turns out that the spiritual master's perception ability does not come out of thin air, but is closely related to their divine king body imprint and elemental perception ability. This also explains why most spiritualists' perception becomes weaker at night, because the environment at night has changed greatly compared with that during the day, and the flow and distribution of elements have become more complex and elusive.

"But..." Zhang Tao suddenly changed the topic, "These are just theoretical knowledge that I have heard. I am not a spiritualist myself, so I cannot personally experience and verify the authenticity of this knowledge. But I think, if I can If you become a spiritualist, you will definitely be able to understand and master this knowledge more deeply."

 Looking at the longing and expectation shining in Zhang Tao's eyes, Ying couldn't help but feel a little relieved. He knew that although Zhang Tao was not a spiritualist, he had a heart full of curiosity and exploration of the unknown world. This kind of courage and determination is necessary to become a true warrior.

"There will be a day." Ying patted Zhang Tao on the shoulder and said, "As long as you practice and study hard, you will definitely become an excellent spiritualist."

 However, at this moment, an inexplicable alarm suddenly surged in Ying's heart. He was keenly aware that there seemed to be some subtle changes in the surrounding atmosphere. This change does not come from the threat of spiritual beasts or enemies, but an indescribable intuition.

 He looked around but didn't find anything unusual. But he knew his instincts were never wrong. So he observed the surrounding environment and atmosphere more vigilantly, trying to find the source of the uneasiness.

At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint light flashing through the woods in the distance. That ray of light passed away in a flash, but it made Ying's heart even more alert. He knew that it was definitely not the light of a spiritual beast or an enemy, but more like a signal or hint.

  Could it be that... someone has been following them? This thought flashed through Ying's mind and he couldn't help but feel a chill. He recalled the inexplicable vigilance and doubt he felt when he and Zhang Tao were talking about Mr. Payne. Now it seems that those are not groundless but have solid basis.

"Zhang Tao." Ying called to his companions in a low voice, "We may be being followed."
