Chapter 227 Xuan Gu Meets Qin Feng
Faced with Xuan Gu's sudden attack, Han Li was not at all panicked.
But on the surface, he still looked panic-stricken, trying to test Xuan Gu's backup plan.
However, after a moment, he discovered that Xuan Gu had no real intention of taking action, and simply sent a ghost cultivator at the Ghost King level to take over his body.
So Han Li had no intention of waiting any longer, but acted quickly, using the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder to easily trap the ghost cultivator, just like a prey trapped in a spider web, which could be killed with ease.
"Xuan Gu, you old thief, didn't you say he didn't have any more divine thunder? How dare you use me to test your sword?!"
After the ghost cultivator was captured, voices of anger and disbelief were heard, as if he wanted to curse Xuan Gu to death.
However, Xuan Gu had no expression on his face and ignored it completely.
Han Li also ignored the other party, but stared at Xuan Gu intently, guarding against any sudden attack from the other party.
But Xuan Gu just watched indifferently without using any means.
At this time, the ghost cultivator begged for mercy: "Daoyou, this Daoyou, please let me out. His skills are the same as mine. I know his weaknesses. I can help you deal with him!"
At this critical moment, he told Han Li what he lacked most at the moment, which was - a way to deal with Xuan Gu.
Hearing this, Han Li was indeed somewhat moved.
After all, Xuan Gu has too many secrets, and he used to be a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, which put a lot of pressure on him.
If there is someone around who knows Xuan Gu's background and has a grudge against him, Han Li will have a better chance of winning when dealing with Xuan Gu. At least he will not be kept in the dark sometimes.
But after thinking about it carefully, Han Li gave up.
The so-called nonsense, these people are not ghost cultivators, who knows what they are thinking?
Even though the other party needs his help now because his life is at stake, he won't be able to withstand it if he turns against him.
The main reason was that Han Li knew too little about ghost cultivators, and he was confident that he could release restrictions on other cultivators to control their lives.
But as for the ghost cultivator, he was not sure he could have complete control.
So he wouldn't feel at ease with such a time bomb around him.
Another point is that this person actually wants to take over his body!
This triggered some not-so-pleasant memories of Han Li, so at this moment, he looked at the ghost cultivator in his hand with disgust in his eyes.
"It's better for you to die. What I hate most in my life is people who take over other people's bodies!" Han Li snorted coldly, and the divine thunder in his palm flashed, completely killing the ghost cultivator!
What he said was a veiled attack, after all, Xuan Gu, the old Biden, was his incarnation who had taken over his body.
Hearing this, Xuan Gu's mouth twitched, and he was thinking about what to say next.
Now that the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng has not been found, he just took direct action to test it.
Although there is some leeway because no direct action was taken, it is not much.
If he wants to ease the relationship, he must bleed a little.
Thinking about it, he quickly said: "Okay, okay, he failed to take over the body because he is not capable enough. I only cooperate with the strong! Boy, you passed the test!"
Hearing this, Han Li immediately cursed in his heart: This old thing is so shameless!
If he didn't have much divine thunder in his hand, he might have been targeted by the other party and possessed by his body.
Such a thing became a test in Xuan Gu's mouth. It was really a bunch of nonsense!
"Senior, you are really shameless. You tricked me here under the guise of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng, and now you send people to ambush me. You want to stay out of this with just one sentence. Do you think I am a fool?!"
Han Li finished speaking in a deep voice, and with a wave of his hand, a gold-eating bug appeared above his head. At the same time, four Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords appeared around him, surrounded by divine thunder, as if they were about to start a war.
To be honest, Han Li is really angry now.
Originally, he thought that the matter of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng was true because of the detailed information Xuan Gu described. However, he didn't know that these were all excuses Xuan Gu used to deceive him.
If he does nothing after being teased like this, wouldn't Xuan Gu look down on him and think he has no trump card and can be manipulated by others?
In this way, his cooperation with Xuan Gu will definitely be ruined later!
So now, he had to show some strength, at least to let Xuan Gu know that he was still worth cooperating with. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get subsequent opportunities, so he had to go back as soon as possible!
"I know you are angry, but I have never lied to you. The pure and spiritual energy of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng cannot deceive anyone. There is definitely a Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng here, but we are just unlucky and have never found it."
Xuan Gu explained, and then said: "Well, this matter was ultimately my negligence, and I let that person sneak out. The Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng cannot be found, but I do have a thousand-year-old Seven-heart Lotus here, which can also strengthen the foundation!"
“Although the effect is slightly inferior to that of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng, if you can find a strange object called Cold Wind Ice and allow the Seven-Heart Lotus to continue growing on it, you can obtain the Seven-Heart Cold Lotus!”
"This is a natural treasure that is not inferior to the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng. In terms of strengthening the body and replenishing the essence, the effect of the Seven-heart Cold Lotus is even stronger!"
As he spoke, Xuan Gu summoned out the Seven Heart Lotus from his storage bag and floated it on his palm.
Han Li's attention was immediately attracted. He saw clearly that the Seven Heart Lotus was intact without any damage.
Especially the roots, which are full of vitality, as if they had just been picked.
Han Li estimated that if it was cultivated, it would still be able to survive.
The Seven Heart Lotus is a good thing, he has also heard of it, it does have the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the vital energy, but it is far from comparable to the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng.
But if it is at the ten thousand year level, the effect may be comparable to the Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng.
And he also has the little green bottle, so the Seven Heart Lotus in his hands must be at least ten thousand years old.
Thinking of this, Han Li was also a little moved.
But he couldn't agree immediately, as that would seem too hasty.
However, Xuan Gu took out things and gave them to him himself, which meant that he still needed to cooperate with me. I was much more important to Xuan Gu than I imagined!
This is exactly the case. At this time, Xuan Gu did not know that Han Li had the Blood Jade Spider, so he had only one thought in mind, which was to find a way to kill Ji Yin and then take revenge!
If he knew that Han Li had the Blood Jade Spider, he would definitely not think so.
After all, compared to revenge, the dry blue ice flame under the Xu Tian Ding is more exciting!
Xuan Gu has mastered the evil-repelling divine thunder and the Xuanhun Yin Fire. As long as he has the Qianlan Ice Flame, they can be integrated into the most powerful Shura Holy Fire of the ghost cultivators.
As long as he completely masters the Shura Holy Fire, Xuan Gu will be able to walk sideways among the Nascent Soul cultivators and his strength will be close to that of the Nascent Soul Great Monk!
"I'll give you this Seven Heart Lotus first!"
At this time, Han Li didn't say anything, just stared at Xuan Gu indifferently.
Xuan Gu was also a little nervous. Without Han Li's help, he would not be very confident of killing Ji Yin by himself.
So he didn't hesitate and directly handed the Seven Heart Lotus to Han Li.
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything wrong. Besides, if something was done to a spiritual object like this, it would be discovered very quickly!"
Seeing that Han Li refused to accept it and looked alert, Xuan Gu continued to explain.
Hearing this, Han Li's consciousness scanned the Seven Heart Lotus several times again, and after finally confirming that there was no problem, he finally put it away. Seeing Han Li accept it, Xuan Gu also flew down from the sky and came to a place not far from Han Li.
Although Han Li was still on guard against Xuan Gu at this time, with the Seven Heart Lotus just now as a stepping stone, at least on the surface it was still acceptable.
"You also know that I was hurt so badly by my own apprentice, so I have to be on guard. You are quite strong and smart. After this test, the subsequent cooperation will naturally require your help!"
"After this, I will definitely not do anything bad to you again, so don't worry!"
Hearing this, Han Li, who had been secretly recovering his spiritual power, laughed and said, "Senior, you have a good idea. The Nine-Bend Spiritual Ginseng that you promised me was replaced by the Seven Heart Lotus, which is more than one level lower. And you still want me to continue working hard for you. You are really daydreaming!"
"Besides, I didn't promise to help before. Now that you have broken your promise to me, I can just walk away!"
Han Li’s meaning was very clear. Don’t even think about dealing with Ji Yin. I’ll just take your Seven Heart Lotus and leave. He won’t care about anything else.
Hearing this, Xuan Gu said calmly: "Don't worry, the recipe for refining the Seven Heart Lotus is still in my hands!"
"Without the recipe, the Seven Heart Lotus won't be of much use! And if you want the recipe for the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng, I can give it to you after it's done!"
Han Li was not fooled and said calmly: "Although the effect is a little worse without the recipe, it can still be used. Compared with the subsequent risks, it is safest for me to leave directly!"
He said this for no other reason than to increase the price.
After all, he has been targeted by Ji Yin. If he wants subsequent opportunities, he has to cooperate with Xuan Gu.
"Walk?"
Xuan Gu seemed to have remembered a joke and burst into laughter.
"You have already been planted with a tracking ban by the traitor Ji Yin. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, you will still be caught by him!"
Tracking ban?
Han Li was shocked and scanned his entire body with his spiritual sense for the thirty-sixth time, but still detected nothing.
With his strong spiritual awareness, he was totally unaware of it.
Is it that the gap between him and the Nascent Soul cultivators is too big, or is Xuan Gu lying to him?
After all, it seems that there is very little truth coming out of Xuan Gu's mouth.
"Are you lying to me, senior?" When Han Li asked this question, he stared at the changes in Xuan Gu's expression, trying to find any flaws.
But Xuan Gu was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and said in a deep voice: "You underestimate the Nascent Soul cultivators too much!"
As the words fell, his Nascent Soul stage level consciousness pressed directly towards Han Li, causing his heart to beat wildly.
Han Li was thinking of a countermeasure in his mind, but he didn't expect that Xuan Gu's pressure suddenly disappeared.
Just when I was wondering what Xuan Gu was up to, he also disappeared, leaving only a message.
"The traitor is here. I'm afraid he's here to look for you. You better take care of yourself. I'll hide for a while."
Ji Yin is coming? Is it true?
Han Li immediately released his spiritual sense and scanned the surroundings, but found nothing.
He suspected that Xuan Gu was deceiving him, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't understand the meaning of Xuan Gu's doing this.
So, I'm afraid this is true, the extreme yin has already arrived.
At this moment, a rumbling sound of ghost howling came from the distant sky, followed by a large mass of dark clouds that covered the sky.
Seeing this, Han Li's heart sank!
This extreme yin has indeed arrived.
The old ghost Xuan Gu said that he would cooperate with him to kill Ji Yin, but now that Ji Yin is here, he hides quickly!
For a moment, Han Li once again realized the unreliability of Xuan Gu.
Just as he was thinking about what Ji Yin would say, a cold snort came from the dark clouds, and then a beam of light as black as ink shot out from the clouds at lightning speed, straight towards him.
What the hell!
The old guy actually sneak attacked him, a young Jindan generation!
Han Li didn't have time to think too much. He immediately used the escape technique to leave the spot and at the same time summoned dozens of tall puppets to block in front of him.
Several spirit beast bags floated in front of him, ready to go at any time. The true energy in his body locked onto the nine Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords at the same time, ready to move.
Although his chances of winning against a Nascent Soul cultivator were extremely low, he still had to fight desperately.
At the same time, on the other side, a figure quietly appeared in Xuan Gu's hiding place.
That’s right, this person is Qin Feng!
He had watched a good show before, waiting for Xuan Gu to put full pressure on Han Li.
But now, Xuan Gu no longer needs to appear, and Qin Feng can capture him.
"Boy, don't act rashly. This traitor just wants to intimidate you. Let's see what his purpose is in finding you first."
Xuan Gu was still transmitting messages to Han Li and was completely unaware of what was happening behind him.
"Calling Ji Yin a traitor? It seems that you are Ji Yin's master?" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind Xuan Gu.
The sound that was so close to him frightened Xuan Gu so much that he felt unwell. He shivered and subconsciously tried to turn into ghost mist and escape.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't transform successfully, and his martial arts skills were completely restricted.
No, there was an extremely powerful restriction placed here, and he couldn't even communicate his own magic power.
But it was still working just now, how could this happen?!
For a moment, Xuan Gu was shocked and realized that there was definitely a Nascent Soul cultivator behind him, and a Nascent Soul cultivator in the middle stage. If it was an early stage Nascent Soul cultivator, there was no way he would not be able to notice it.
What was this strong man doing here? Could it be Man Huzi?
But the voices don’t sound like that, and he recognizes that beard!
Although he was confused, Xuan Gu did not dare to delay any longer. He turned around slightly stiffly and finally saw Qin Feng's face clearly.
Young and unfathomable!
This was Xuan Gu’s first impression.
"Xiao Cha greets the senior!" Xuan Gu didn't dare to speak carelessly and quickly bowed respectfully.
As an old monster at the Nascent Soul stage, Xuan Gu's reaction was still very quick.
Now that the other party knew that he was Ji Yin's master, he naturally would not hide anything and directly gave his real name.
At the same time, he also had an idea to see if the other party really knew him.
After all, this cultivator in front of him, who was at least in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, might have had some past ties with him.
Or in other words, he has a grudge against him.
But either way, it's better than the current unknown.
