Chapter 261 Ambush
"I will leave first."

Qi Yuan clasped his fists and said, his figure suddenly turned into a stunning rainbow, flying towards the direction of Huangfeng Valley.

On the way, he took out a palm-sized round mirror from his storage bag. The mirror surface was smooth and shiny, and emitted a faint blue light.

This is a replica of the Tongtian Lingbao that he restored, named the Inverted Sea Mirror.

The reason why we can recognize it is thanks to Silver Moon.

As soon as the inverted sea mirror was repaired, the little wolf immediately blurted out and revealed its approximate origin.

It just saved him time for research, so there was no need to guess.

Although the Inverted Sea Mirror is a spiritual object with water attributes, Qi Yuan can also separate the five elements of magic power in his body on its own, extract the water-attributed magic power, and drive this mirror to the maximum extent.

Therefore, during the battle, you don’t have to worry about the use of the Inverted Sea Mirror.

Now that he has a replica of the Tongtian Lingbao as his own, Qi Yuan feels more confident when facing a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

It's no problem to fight against one or two people.

If he could refine the Three-Flame Fan and add a late Nascent Soul puppet, he would not be afraid even if three or four late Nascent Soul cultivators surrounded him.

Speaking of which, the method of refining the Seven Flame Fan has been given to Lord Dayan for so long, he should have figured out a way to modify it.

Qi Yuan thought about this and wondered whether he should go to Luoyun Sect to ask Lord Dayan about the progress of the Three Flame Fan.

After all, Mulan Grassland would not lure Master Tuwu into the trap so quickly.

There is plenty of time.

While flying and thinking about things, the gate of Huangfeng Valley came into view.

Ever since Qi Yuan united the hearts of the five nations and his reputation and status have been firmly established, the previously unknown Huangfeng Valley has suddenly transformed into a sect with many guests and friends.

The strength and the territory occupied were both increasing. There were many unfamiliar faces in the valley, and Qi Yuan did not recognize them.

But people knew him.

"Senior Brother Qi."

Qi Yuan suddenly heard a voice entering his mind. He stopped abruptly and then flashed towards the source of the voice.

Soon we arrived at a quiet stream.

A figure in green came into his sight.

"Junior Brother Han, why don't you go into the valley and wait?"

"Junior brother, you are just here to take care of a small matter. There is no need to go in." Han Li took a look and said calmly.

Qi Yuan's figure slowly fell down and said, "Is it Lord Dayan who is looking for me?"

"That's right, it's the senior who wants to find Senior Brother Qi." Han Li threw the yellow bamboo tube over and very consciously moved away to a certain distance.

Hearing this,

Qi Yuan's eyes flashed, and he tightly grasped the yellow maple bamboo tube, casually set up a soundproof ban, and said: "Senior, is there any result for the Seven Flame Fan?"

"As for the modification method of Tongtian Lingbao, I have already increased and decreased the materials for refining the weapon. I have eliminated all the spiritual objects that are impossible to obtain in the human world, and then added some substitutes. Finally, I have successfully matched the properties of the materials and maintained them in a balanced state."

The voice of Lord Dayan came from the yellow bamboo tube, and there was a sense of pride in his tone.

The next second, a jade slip flew out from the yellow bamboo tube.

Qi Yuan's expression lit up with joy. He raised his hand to grab the jade slip and immediately used his spiritual sense to examine it deeply.

After a moment, he withdrew with satisfaction and said, "Senior Dayan is indeed a brilliant man with extraordinary talent. He was able to improve the refining method without any flaws. I admire you."

"Don't flatter me, kid. I'm used to hearing it. I've already taught you the reform method. As for how to obtain the materials, it depends on your own ability." Lord Dayan said slowly.

Qi Yuan heard this and said with a smile: "As for how to obtain the materials, I have my own way."

He then copied all the materials needed to refine the Three Flame Fan and removed the soundproofing restriction.

A green light flew over, revealing Han Li's figure.

"Brother Qi, have you finished your work?"

Han Li was very interested in the secret between Lord Dayan and Qi Yuan, but he knew his limits and did not take the initiative to ask.

Qi Yuan threw the yellow bamboo tube back to Han Li and said with a gentle smile: "Well, Junior Brother Han, you got so many ancient spiritual medicines from Lingmiao Garden, but you haven't broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul after years of hard training?"

This kid didn't have the Bu Tian Pill to cleanse his spiritual roots, so his progress in cultivation was always a little behind.

Also, in the human world, the Bu Tian Dan can only be found in the Xu Tian Ding and on Ji Xuan's body, and it cannot be obtained anywhere else.

This has resulted in Han Li's spiritual roots being in the state of four spiritual roots qualification to date.

"I'm ashamed to say that my cultivation speed is indeed not as fast as Brother Qi's." Han Li smiled awkwardly with a hint of bitterness on his face.

Although Qi Yuan had not broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, Han Li could sense that the other party's cultivation was very profound and he was not far from the late stage.

Qi Yuan smiled and said, "Brother, there is a kind of elixir that can cleanse the spiritual roots after taking it. It only takes hundreds of years to change the speed of absorbing spiritual energy."

"What, Senior Brother Qi has this kind of medicine?" Han Li said with a look of sudden shock.

He knew very well the pain of having fake spiritual roots.

Qi Yuan said calmly: "Why, Junior Brother Han doesn't believe me?"

Han Li was speechless when he heard this. Now he finally understood why Senior Brother Qi's cultivation was so fast.

It turned out that this elixir cleansed the spiritual roots, making the five elements spiritual roots absorb spiritual energy faster.

"Brother Qi is now using this elixir to lure me. I guess you want me to do something dangerous?"

"Smart, Junior Brother Han, you helped me find these refining materials. In addition to a Bu Tian Dan as a reward, you can also make a request."

Qi Yuan put the method of refining the Three Flame Fan into his storage bag, and then gave Han Li a list of materials, with some relevant place names attached, or where to look for it.

Han Li took the jade slip and read its contents the whole time without saying a word, but his face looked a little ugly, and it was obvious that he was not willing to do so.

"The process of obtaining each of the materials required is fraught with difficulty. Senior Brother Qi thinks too highly of me."

"I know the difficulty, so I will give you a blank request. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to complete what you ask for."

Qi Yuan's face did not show the slightest sign of discouragement, instead he spoke with full confidence.

He just didn't believe that Han Li didn't have any ideas.

Han Li was silent for a while, stared at the past, and said, "Brother Qi, are you willing to share the method of refining this material?"

He didn’t know the content of the transaction between Dayan Divine Lord and Qi Yuan before.

Now seeing this pile of rare refining materials, Han Li could naturally guess the intention vaguely.

Based on his years of experience, he inferred that the magic weapons made with these refining materials would definitely be extremely powerful.

If you have this magic weapon to protect yourself, you will definitely be much safer.

"Great, Junior Brother Han can see the key point at a glance. Senior Brother promised today that if you help me collect materials, I will meet your requirements."

Qi Yuan said this in a generous tone. Firstly, this opportunity was obtained by intercepting Han Li, so he didn't feel bad about using it.

Secondly, all the materials needed for the Three-Flame Fan are in Dajin, and it would take him an unknown amount of time to collect them.

So I just hired Han Li to do it.

As the saying goes, don't team up with Han Li when going to the secret realm, because it's easy to be wiped out.

But it is much safer to trade with him without having to consider other factors.

Han Li thought about it seriously, and with a firm mind, he said in a deep voice, "Okay, Junior Brother agrees, but you can't rush me."

"Well, I can meet this request, but it can't be delayed too long." Qi Yuan frowned slightly, then agreed.

"I know this. Junior brother has important things to attend to, so I'll leave first." Han Li clasped his hands together, and with the sword flashing, his figure rushed into the sky and quickly escaped.

Qi Yuan withdrew his gaze and continued to fly back to Huangfeng Valley. He could rest assured that Han Li would take care of the matter of the Three Flame Fan.

In the days that followed, everything was peaceful in the Tiannan cultivation world.

In addition to practicing, he also guided Xiao Cui'er in her practice and helped her correct some of her bigger faults.

Mu Peiling was stimulated by seeing the girls forming babies, and she has been practicing very hard recently, so she has not been out and about much.

Ruyin was busy constructing the teleportation array seriously.

Ruyan, Xiaomei, and Qiaoqian, the three of them escorted Zi Ling back to the Chaos Star Sea and have not returned yet.

The remaining beauties were either managing the sect's affairs, traveling outside, or studying the various arts of cultivation.

In addition, Master Hongfu quietly left Huangfeng Valley alone, which prevented Qi Yuan from carrying out his plan.

Although he felt regretful, he still sent people out to look for Master Hongfu to prevent her from encountering any accidents.

A year passed like this.

On the Mulan grassland, several figures were flying at a low speed. They were Wei Wuya, Qi Yuan, Master Zhiyang and others.

After such a long period of planning, Master Zhong and his men successfully lured a great master Tuwu into the trap, so they immediately sent a message to Tiannan, calling Qi Yuan and the others over to take action.

"Fellow Daoist Qi seems to be worried. Is there something troubling you?" Master Zhiyang glanced at the people around him and asked in confusion.

Qi Yuan suddenly came back to his senses, smiled, and said, "I'm sorry to have worried Daoist Zhiyang. I was just thinking about some problems in cultivation."

"Oh, if you can't solve the doubts, Brother Qi, don't keep dwelling on it, so as to prevent a knot in your heart from growing." Master Zhiyang advised kindly.

Qi Yuan said "hmm" in response.

Because he found out that Master Hongfu went north and then disappeared completely, he had more thoughts.

"Here is the place."

At this time, Wei Wuya's voice sounded.

Qi Yuan collected his thoughts, focused his eyes, and gazed into the distance. At a glance, he saw seven or eight black palaces standing in the distance. They were rather rough in style and far less exquisite than the ones in Tiannan.

The center point of Mulan Grassland.

Suddenly, a figure flew over quickly, and when the brown light dissipated, the figure of the god-blessing master was revealed.

"Hello, fellow Taoists. Our people have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Please lead the way, fellow Daoist Zhu."

Wei Wuya flicked his sleeves and motioned for him to go first.

Master Zhu Shen nodded slightly, his figure flashed, and he flew at a moderate speed.

Qi Yuan's eyes flashed and he followed.

Soon they arrived at a magnificent palace and met Master Zhong Shen and others.

Compared to their spirits a year ago, the conditions of Mulan's four great masters have declined significantly.

It can be seen that Tianlan is under a lot of pressure.

Master Zhong's face was originally solemn, but after seeing Wei Wuya and the others, he reluctantly smiled a little, and his eyes stayed on Qi Yuan for a while, and said:

"My fellow Taoists, you have come at the right time. Three days from now, a great immortal master Tuwu will fall into our trap. It will be up to you to kill him then."

"I wonder where the ambush is set up." Master Zhiyang asked.

Master Tian explained, "The ambush is at Pingmu Mountain, which is only half an incense stick away from Tianlan Grassland, so you must fight quickly to avoid the sudden reinforcements from ruining the plan."

"It's only half an incense stick's distance. Isn't it a little short for a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage? If you have Master Mulan to help, it's not impossible." Long Han pondered for a while and said slowly.

Master Zhong sighed and said, "I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Long's plan will fail. The premise for that Great Immortal Tuwu to dare to fly into the Mulan Grassland is that we all go out and fight the Tuwu people, otherwise the plan cannot be implemented."

"Half an incense stick is enough. I'm just worried that you in Mulan Grassland will not be able to keep the agreed time and will retreat early." Qi Yuan took a step forward and said in a firm tone.

It's equivalent to four late Nascent Soul cultivators setting an ambush on one late Nascent Soul cultivator, but they can't even kill him. Isn't that ridiculous?
Plus he has the help of formation, so this is not a problem at all.

Master Zhu seemed unhappy and responded: "Fellow Daoist Qi, you don't need to worry about the time. The four of us are not so cheap that we can't even get half an incense stick."

"In that case, then I have no problem."

Qi Yuan smiled and returned to his position.

Master Zhong said to Wei Wuya, "What do you mean, Brother Wei?"

"There's no problem with Wei." Wei Wuya replied firmly.

Master Zhong laughed loudly and said, "Okay, everyone go down and rest first. Tomorrow you will go to Pingmu Mountain to set up traps."

The next day.

Hiragiyama.

This mountain range is not long and has no unique beauty in appearance, but beneath this ordinary peak lies a rare mineral.

It's called Golden Color Stone.

The amount of mineral that can be mined is not large, but it is rare and valuable, so the mining rights are repeatedly transferred between the two grasslands.

The Divine Master Mulan was able to lure the Great Immortal Master Tuwu here, probably because he used this gold-colored stone vein as a hook.

I don’t know how Mulan Grassland will manage this.

Qi Yuan, Wei Wuya and his party came to Pingmu Mountain, selected the orientation and hiding place, and began to prepare.

In mid-air, Qi Yuan's figure froze. He looked around at the mountains, then slapped his storage bag, and forty-eight small formation flags flew out.

He immediately formed seals with his hands, colorful light flashed, and his palms turned into sword fingers, emitting a sharp magical power, pointing at the small formation flags one by one.

In an instant, as magic power was poured into it, the flags fell to the ground in an orderly manner. The flags flashed slightly and then disappeared.

This is the Four-Phase Heavenly Dragon Formation. Once the formation is activated, forty-eight heavenly dragons can be summoned to assist. Through a series of battles, it can consume the opponent's magic power and make the opponent unable to fight back.
