Chapter 1296 Master, What Did You Say?
After flying for about half a stick of incense, Li Yan and the others came to an island with dense trees and shade. The two of them did not hesitate and fell directly downwards.
At the same time, a token appeared in both of their hands. At the moment of contact with the invisible formation barrier, light poured into the token. Li Yan only felt the token in his hand shake slightly.
Among the "soil spots", Yang Youxian, who was in a coma, looked even paler. He had just lost another drop of blood.
With a soft sound of "chi", Li Yan and the two passed through an invisible barrier directly. At the same time, several rays of spiritual consciousness swept towards the two of them, and Li Yan sensed a powerful spiritual power from it. .
"As expected, there are Nascent Soul monks patrolling here all the time, and the precautions are very tight."
This is different from those sects in Desolate Moon Continent. Many sects with Nascent Soul cultivators only conduct inspections from time to time and do not inspect all visitors.
Even if there is a Nascent Soul taking turns to take charge, most of the time it is used to detect abnormalities through induction, and it is basically meditating with eyes closed.
"Whether it's fear of a sneak attack by a wind beast or fear of enemies coming, this kind of precaution is really strict."
Although Li Yan's face remained calm, his muscles were tense. As soon as he sensed something was wrong, he would rush out immediately.
However, there was no situation where the Great Elder was immediately targeted by several Nascent Souls after his whereabouts were exposed.
"The formation and spiritual consciousness should not have discovered that the disguise of the Chaotic Pill is fake..."
Li Yan quickly judged the surrounding situation in his mind.
But until the two of them entered the formation, although the few spiritual consciousnesses saw the two of them clearly, they still followed them.
"Ten feet, fifty feet, one hundred feet... two hundred feet... three hundred feet... five hundred feet..."
As Li Yan silently calculated in his mind, he was getting further and further away from the invisible barrier behind him, but those rays of consciousness never dispersed, but followed closely, sweeping around his body.
Li Yan looked very normal on the surface. There was a flash of light in his hand, and he had already put away the token in his hand, but his heart became more and more tense.
"Isn't this just trying to catch a turtle in an urn?"
The further away from the formation barrier behind him, the more dangerous he is!
At this time, Cao Xun spoke to him.
"Senior Brother Yang, I'm going to hand in the mission! Later, after you register the bottle of elixir I mentioned on the way, you'll have to bother Senior Brother to pay more attention."
After saying that, Cao Xun bowed his hand towards him.
Yang Youxian was good this time. He revealed the treasure he got last month, and Cao Xun took a fancy to a bottle of pills. However, these things were not something that the two of them could get.
Otherwise, they would take advantage of all the things purchased by the sect, and others would have to eat leftovers. They could only get the advantage first because of their special status.
For example, the bottle of elixir that Cao Xun is interested in needs to be registered and then Yang Youxian can talk to the housekeeper. Then Cao Xun may get one or two of them, or a whole bottle.
As for the good things he likes in the shops in Fangshi, Yang Youxian usually colludes with shopkeeper Wu in advance, but this kind of thing can only happen once or twice in four to five years.
If there are too many, they will show their flaws, and they do not dare to make too many mistakes, otherwise it will not work even if they have Nascent Soul monks as their backers. After all, there is more than one Nascent Soul monk in the "Qionglin Sect".
Li Yan also nodded to the other party. Of course he was going to hand in the task, but the place where he handed it in was not with Cao Xun, but in the Internal Affairs Hall.
After the two separated, Li Yan flew towards the place in his memory. At the same time, the consciousnesses that glanced at him finally left one by one, which made Li Yan finally relax.
some.
After Cao Xun and those spiritual consciousnesses left, Li Yan did not go to the Internal Affairs Hall immediately, but flew directly to the northwest.
At this time, the sun was setting, and it was already approaching evening. Li Yan, who was flying, could see the endless deep blue sea outside the island through the transparent barrier.
Li Yan soon came to a cave facing the sea. In front of the cave was a platform made of huge rocks. One side faced the sea and the other side leaned against a mountain peak that was only tens of feet high.
There are rows of tall trees on both sides of the platform. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the sea water is sparkling, and the sea breeze blows, and the coolness of the sea breeze in the evening makes people feel peaceful.
After Li Yanluo glanced around the platform, he found that there were no monks around and it seemed increasingly quiet.
He immediately stepped towards the entrance of the cave. After walking only a dozen feet on the platform, he was blocked by an invisible force. However, he could no longer get closer to the entrance of the cave, which was so close.
At this moment, a peaceful voice came out of thin air, floating in the evening wind.
"What brings you here?"
"Master Qi, this disciple has just returned from Fangshi!"
Li Yan bowed with great respect. After hearing this, the voice fell silent for a short time.
"Then why don't you come in?"
As the words fell, Li Yan felt that the invisible force blocking the front suddenly disappeared, and then the cave door in front also shook slightly and slowly opened.
Li Yan did not hesitate and entered the cave in a flash.
The interior of the cave was very large, and what caught Li Yan's view was a quiet courtyard with rocks, fish ponds, and many golden water lilies exuding fragrance.
On one side of the mountain wall, there were streams of clear spring water flowing down. After the water flowed into the pond, it made a pleasant sound. The whole cave was filled with the coolness of summer, which made people feel clear-minded.
Li Yan walked around rocks and ponds with ease, and continued to move forward on the cobblestone path.
I don’t know what kind of formation was used on the top of the cave, but it completely reflected the sky outside the cave. Under the setting sun, half of the sky was golden, magnificent and dazzling.
Li Yan knew that it was not an illusion, but the sky outside. It was bright here when it was day outside, and dark here when it was night outside. This was a very good protective formation.
After walking about three hundred breaths along the stone path to the back, Li Yan walked around rocks and green banana leaves, and a pavilion connected to the corridor appeared in front of him.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a green robe was sitting in the pavilion. He was sitting in front of a stone table, holding a cup of tea, leaning on a big chair, as if he was thinking about something with his eyes closed, and seemed to be unaware of Li Yan's approach.
Li Yan walked to the front of the pavilion, and stood outside the corridor with his hands behind his back, without saying a word.
Time passed little by little, until the middle-aged man in the green robe slowly opened his eyes, took another sip of tea, put the teacup behind the stone table, and then looked at Li Yan.
He admired the character of this eldest disciple very much, he was steady and experienced.
"Youxian, what did you find in the market?"
The middle-aged man in the green robe was Yang Youxian's master "Bi Hai Zun". When he heard Yang Youxian say that he had returned from the market, he knew what the other party's intention was.
Something that Yang Youxian liked should have a certain value.
"Master, I saw a damaged magic weapon in the market. I thought it was made by a Confucian Yuanying, so I bought it back at a high price. I would like to ask you to identify it!"
As Li Yan spoke, he stretched out his hand and patted the storage bag. In a flash of black light, a black inkstone appeared in the air. It was his own magic weapon.
Normally, the treasures brought back by Yang Youxian must be registered in the Internal Affairs Hall first, and if they are too valuable, they must be reported to "Venerable Bi Hai" and then taken out of the Internal Affairs Hall with his handwritten order.
But occasionally Yang Youxian would bring the treasure here first, but such things are not too many. For example, Cao Liang knew about the inkstone, and he would inform his master later, which would cause trouble.
Of course, if Yang Youxian and Shopkeeper Wu had colluded in advance, this thing would be embezzled by him.
But Li Yan didn't want his magic weapon to be left in the Internal Affairs Hall, so he wouldn't go to the Internal Affairs Hall to hand over the so-called task. Anyway, he only needed to see "Venerable Bi Hai" and have some time to do it.
Cao Liang might still be handing over his own affairs at this time. He bought a lot of things, so he had to count them one by one, which just gave Li Yan some free time.
"A Confucian Yuanying-level magic weapon? It's not easy to see it in the market!"
"Venerable Bi Hai" immediately became interested and scanned it with a pair of sharp eyes.
There are of course Yuanying-level magic weapons in the market, but if you want to encounter a truly high-grade one, you may have to go to the auction house, but in some shops, you can occasionally find a leak.
It depends on luck and vision. He still thinks Yang Youxian's vision is okay.
Li Yan hurriedly stepped forward a few steps. Although he didn't enter the pavilion, he handed over the black inkstone respectfully across the guardrail.
"The Venerable Bi Hai" took it over. Of course, he would not have any precautions against his eldest disciple. After getting the black inkstone, "The Venerable Bi Hai" immediately scanned it with his consciousness.
Then, his expression froze. It really contained the Confucian righteousness, and it seemed quite strong.
But this treasure looked like it had been corroded by some extremely powerful and sinister thing. He could feel a cold blood surge from its surface.
"It is really a good Confucian magic weapon. If it can remove these cold blood, and if it can stimulate the righteousness in it, the power will be much better than the magic weapons in my hands..."
While thinking, he immersed his consciousness into the magic weapon and began to explore it carefully!
And Li Yan stood across several horizontal guardrails, with his hands hanging down respectfully, looking pleasing to the eye.
After more than a hundred breaths, "The Venerable Bi Hai" withdrew his consciousness and turned his head to look at Li Yan.
"This should be a set of magic weapons. If I am not mistaken, it may be the four treasures of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which are a set of magic weapons refined together. Did you only get this one?
Or you only saw this magic weapon in the market, and the other three magic weapons..."
Just when he said this, his face, which had always been calm and composed, suddenly changed, and the black inkstone in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".
Then, "Venerable Bi Hai" turned back with difficulty, with a shocked face, his eyes full of disbelief, and his eyes were fixed on "Yang Youxian" standing outside the guardrail.
"Why... did you plot against me?"
"Venerable Bi Hai" felt his whole body numb, and
These numbness first came from his hands, and other parts of his body also showed this symptom almost the next moment.
Before, he had no feeling at all, everything came so suddenly.
Just now, the Nascent Soul in his Dantian suddenly stood up, and then the mana in his body, like his skin, was running with a hint of "woodenness".
There was a sense of strangeness between his own perception and the mana in his body. This was poisoning. The "strangeness" of mana was the gap between the poisoning and consciousness.
"The Venerable Bi Hai" figured everything out in an instant, and "Yang Youxian" outside the guardrail also showed a look of astonishment on his face. He was eager to take a step forward, but under the sharp eyes of "The Venerable Bi Hai", he immediately stopped.
"Master, you...what's wrong with you?"
His expression made "The Venerable Bi Hai" who was staring at him wonder for a moment whether his disciple also knew what happened? Could this poison be the magic weapon itself? But he quickly reacted.
"You are Youxian, what about others? Who are you?"
This magic weapon is poisonous, but it was taken out by "Yang Youxian" in front of him. He must have carefully explored it bit by bit, so why is he fine?
In an instant, "The Venerable Bi Hai" knew that there was something wrong with the person in front of him.
"Master... Master, of course... it's me, what are you talking about? Don't joke!"
"Yang Youxian" had a stunned expression just now, but now he was terrified and at a loss, giving people a very scared feeling.
Li Yan did not admit it immediately, but deliberately continued to act. He must be cautious in doing things, with the purpose of delaying a little more time.
The poison he put on the inkstone magic weapon was called "Wood Flow Puppet" by him. This poison was named after he saw the puppet refined by the "Wood Flow Sect".
The onset of this poison is somewhat slow, and it is the kind of "silent" immersion. The poison will adhere to the flesh and blood and the wall of the tendons and veins, and slowly form a layer of diaphragm.
Let the cultivator become more and more "strange" to his own mana drive, and there will be an uncontrollable sense of estrangement, until finally he can't sense the mana at all.
After a period of time, the "Wood Flow Puppet" will disappear on its own, and there will be no subsequent damage to the body.
As for the duration of the poison, Li Yan must control it personally. He has to decide how much poison to use based on the other party's cultivation.
These can only be known after Li Yan tests them bit by bit. Therefore, the "fragmented poison body" is powerful, but every time it is divided and promoted, it is the most painful time for Li Yan.
He has to test them one by one, and this kind of test is not to take a monster and put the poison on it. It is necessary to carefully observe its various reactions, constantly record and speculate.
At the same time, it is also necessary to judge based on the other party's cultivation, or even the surrounding environment, so as to finally determine the method of using this poison.
Seeing that "Jinghai Zun" took the black inkstone, Li Yan was slightly relieved until his consciousness probed into the magic weapon to observe...
"Who are you...? What deep hatred do I have with you? You actually spent so much effort to plot against me!"
"Jinghai Zun" said almost word by word. At the same time, even his sitting body shook a few times, and some of the breath that had just burst out of his body surface quickly weakened.
Looking at the sharp and fierce gaze and quickly fading breath of "Reverend Bi Hai", Li Yan's spiritual sense swept over. What he had to do was not to allow the other party any means or opportunities to resist.
