Golden Cicada, Laughing Monk, and two others ventured out across the mountainside, searching for fully formed plant spirits. Naturally, such searches were bound to be fruitless; spirits of this kind were extremely rare in the world.
Having searched for half a day with no results, they dared not linger outside for long. Sun Nan urged the group to hurry back every so often, and eventually, they returned to the mountain, disheartened.
They had entered through the thirteenth limitation from the left, and the four agreed not to tell anyone else about it.
Their mana insufficient, embarrassed, and indiscreet, they would find the normal Emei Formation closed upon exit, barring their return. It was Shi Feiyang who left a path open for them.
