Chapter 1616 – Probing
But the next moment, the youth continued with slight excitement:
”According to the one who was injured by the Chi Fairy, his Golden Elemental Forbidden Light is sufficient to trap this Chi Fairy’s Floating Light Transformation Shadow for as long as two months. Moreover, because of this forbidden light in the Chi Fairy’s body, he could also directly refine a magic disk to track the Chi Fairy, and as long as he was close to the Chi Fairy within a hundred miles, he could immediately discover the trail. This Chi Fairy hiding and concealment skills amazing, there are some special aptitude, but the real means of fighting is not smart, coupled with injuries in the body, think never dare to go deep into the depths of the Devil’s Gold Mountain Range, can only hide in the periphery of a place. In that case, this month’s time is the perfect opportunity to capture it. Those of us who live temporarily in the town originally had no intention of entering the mountain range during the period of the demonic gas eruption, but now that such a good thing has happened, we naturally want to go in and try our luck. As for those in places a little farther away, even if they arrived here, they would have long since missed the good opportunity.”
It was only after hearing such a detailed explanation that Han Li’s three men came to some sudden realization. Yue Zong slightly pondered under, still extremely cautious said: “Although the humanoid spirit medicine is extremely rare, but the specific efficacy of the medicine who has not recorded anything, and does not really see than some top-ranked holy medicine where to go. Only this kind of psychic thing, really rare to hear about it. In this case, it is not so short a few days of work, to attract so many people in the magic gas spray during the willingness to risk entering the mountain range it. After all, if you enter during this period, the danger can be several percent more than usual. Even if you only move around the periphery, there is still the possibility of encountering powerful magical beasts.”
”Brother Yue doesn’t know. On the very day after the appearance of the Chi Fairy, a senior of the Sacred Race appeared in our town and was willing to exchange three Ten Thousand Miraculous Pills and three Ten Thousand Years of Blue Lotus Flowers, plus an astronomical amount of Spirit Stones in exchange for this Chi Fairy, and not to be questioned in life or death. Now, this senior is living in the town, and has stated that he will wait until the end of the month when the Magic Gold Mountain Range opens before he leaves. By the way, those few drops of Chi Fairy blood were also bought by this senior.” Another palace-suited woman with a pretty face also said in explanation.
”Sacred Race?” This time, it was Han Li who asked with a start.
”Not bad. This senior’s surname is Gu, and his cultivation is so profound that he doesn’t look like someone local to my Heavenly Cloud.” The woman in the palace dress glanced at Han Li for a couple of moments and felt that he was unimpressive, so she faintly returned.
”It seems that the people here are actually here for this Senior Valley’s high rewards.” Hearing this, Jian Jian smiled sweetly and said.
”Cultivators who come to this town, regardless of their cultivation level mostly have unavoidable hardships, all of them have a strange shortage of spirit stones, or else they wouldn’t be willing to risk entering the Demon Gold Mountain Range. With such a high reward, if we get it, we immediately don’t need to live in this town anymore, and we don’t need to risk our lives to hunt any magical beasts.” The woman in the palace dress grunted, as if she was a bit dissatisfied with Fiber’s words.
With a faint smile, the Crystal Clan woman pursed her lips.
”Nier, shall not be rude. These two daoist friends, they can both be friends of Xian Nephew Yue.” The old man surnamed Yan seemed to be the palace dress woman’s direct elder, and under a flash of his gaze, he slightly reprimanded.
The palace-dressed woman’s face was not too happy, but she stopped speaking with a yes in her mouth.
”Since it was several days ago, why are there still so many people gathered here. Could it be that the one in charge of this place now is not ‘Elder Liao’ anymore.” Yue Zong seemed to still have something that he hadn’t solved, but after sweeping his gaze towards that surrounding, his brows frowned a bit as he asked about another matter.
”Brother Yue did not guess wrongly, Elder Liao left more than ten years ago. The new deacon that has replaced him now is very harsh and has even reinstated the previous passage test once again. Those who do not pass the test are refused the issuance of the Thunder Pioneer Umbrella. And it’s not like Senior Liao who is so nice to talk, and won’t issue the Thunder Parasol in advance at all. It’s a coincidence that Brother Yue came, today happens to be the first day of the open test, that’s why there are so many people all gathered here.” The white-faced youth sighed and complained.
”Alright, some words aren’t nonsense. The newly arrived ‘Deacon Min’ reopened the test, and it will also prevent people with insufficient strength from dying in vain under the magical beasts.” The old man, however, spoke blandly.
”But this kind of test was a regulation a long time ago. Because there were too many fellow travelers who fell in the Demon Gold Mountain Range in the past, there was such a stipulation. Nowadays, only a few people are willing to enter the mountain range every year, so isn’t it superfluous to hold this test!” The youth, however, bristled and said, seeming to be rather unimpressed by this.
”It’s useless to say any more. It is impossible to enter the mountain range without a Thunder Pioneer Umbrella, and now the person in charge of reviewing this matter is no longer Senior Liao. The rules naturally have to change as well.” The elder surnamed Yan said with great meaning.
Seeing that even the old man with the highest cultivation amongst them, had said so, it was not good for the other few to continue to say anything more about the matter.
”It doesn’t matter what Brother Yue wanted to do when he entered the mountain range this time. But since you’ve caught such an opportunity, you shouldn’t give it up. Why don’t you join me and the others, with Brother Yue, a famous magical beast hunter, and the tracking disk, our chances of capturing that Chi Xian should be a bit greater than the others. At that time, if we really catch the Chi Fairy, Brother Yue can get a portion of the reward. The rest will be divided equally among us. What does Brother Yue think?” The woman in the palace dress smiled as she rushed at Yue Zong and persuaded him.
When Yue Zong heard this, his expression moved, but he did not answer anything immediately.
”Brother Yue, our time is not generous, we can’t afford to split it up. As for the reward, one has already arrived and one is still unknown. Fellow Daoist should make a wise choice.” The Crystal Race woman, however, could see Yue Zong’s motivation and faintly reminded.
”Fellow Daoist Fiber don’t worry. Since I have already received part of the payment, there is absolutely no reason for me to change my mind again. Senior Hikari, the latecomer still has another matter on his mind, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to move with you.” Yue Zong’s expression was cloudy for a while before he finally came to a decision.
”It’s fine. To be honest, there are quite a few of us who entered the Devil’s Gold Mountain Range this time to gamble down our chances. The outskirts of the Devil’s Gold Mountain Range aren’t too huge, but trying to find the whereabouts of the Chi Fairy in the devilish Qi can’t be an easy task. This kind of thing can’t be said by anyone, maybe the more unintentional you are about it, the more likely you are to come across it unintentionally. In that case, Nier, you will give a copy of that Chi Fairy’s appearance and a tracking disk to your nephew Yue Xian.” The old man surnamed Yan commanded without a care in the world.
When the palace-suited woman heard this, she really did not hesitate to take out a white stone piece and a blue Dharma disk from her storage bracelet.
”Many thanks to Elder Hikari.” Yue Zong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not push back and accepted the two items.
”Hehehe, this is nothing. No matter what, your father and I had a few friendships back then.” The old man said with a low chuckle.
When Han Li, who had his hands backward, saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly for a few moments, revealing an expression that seemed like a smile. And almost at the same time, Han Li’s voice transmission voice suddenly rang in the Crystalline Clan woman’s ears, “There’s something that you didn’t say to Han when you set out, isn’t there? What is a ‘magical qi eruption’ and the possibility of encountering powerful magical beasts even in the periphery?”
When Jian Jian heard this, her face changed slightly, but immediately calmly opened her sandalwood mouth slightly, and similarly wordlessly transmitted her voice back, “Seniors, please forgive me! Although this Demonic Qi eruption has some impact on our trip, as long as we don’t go deeper into the mountain range, there won’t be any major problems. Senior originally wanted to wait until we entered inside to talk about this matter. How about this, after that Saint-ranked demonic beast is won, in addition to the true blood and demonic core, senior will let out a small portion of the materials? I also hope that senior won’t be blamed for this!”
This Slender was also well-behaved, and as soon as she heard Han Li’s questioning, she immediately lowered her stance to an extremely low level and took the initiative to propose an increase in compensation.
The Crystal Race woman’s ears fell silent for a moment, but a moment later, it resounded with Han Li’s suddenly icy voice: “I’ve always hated it when people deliberately set traps for me. Let’s forget about it this time, and if we find out there’s a next time, our cooperation will end immediately. Even though I very much want to repair the Heaven’s Beyond Demon Armor, I will never allow others to tease it multiple times.”
Upon hearing Han Li’s words so morose, the Crystal Race woman’s heart was instead relieved, knowing that she had finally passed this hurdle.
While at this time, Yue Zong started chatting about old events with the old man surnamed Yan and the others, in a manner that made them look like they were enjoying each other’s company.
But right at this moment, something that even Han Li hadn’t anticipated happened.
The other two top-ranked Refined Void existences with the highest cultivation levels in this place were not only outsiders, but were also the same few people who had just heard the name of the Yue Sect indifferently.
However, now that they had heard the voices of the others, they finally realized where the Yue Sect’s fame came from, and both of their eyes lit up almost simultaneously.
Then after the two of them talked secretly for a few more sentences, one of them, a middle-aged man with a four-sided head and a head of messy green hair, suddenly stood up and walked straight to Yue Zong and the others with big strides.
”You are the most famous magical beast hunter in town, you must be very familiar with the Magic Gold Mountain Range.” As soon as this person walked a few feet away from Yue Zong, he asked in an unkind tone.
”Being famous is a thing of the past. I haven’t entered the Devil’s Gold Mountain Range for more than a hundred years, so I can’t talk about any familiarity now! Is there something wrong with senior?” Although Yue Zong’s heart sank, he was still able to keep his voice unassuming as he returned.
”It doesn’t matter if you are truly familiar or pretending to be confused. Tomorrow, Daoist Miao and I are going to enter the Demon Gold Mountain Range in search of the Chi Fairy, so you can come with us on the road.” This green-haired foreigner narrowed both of his eyes and said in an unusually domineering manner under his breath.
Upon hearing these words, not only did Yue Zong and the palace-suited woman and the others’ complexions change drastically, but Miao and Han Li were also stunned.
The old man surnamed Yan was able to maintain his composure, but looking at the other party, his expression sank as he asked, “What does Your Excellency mean by these words?”
”What do you mean? Naturally, I want to use this little friend’s ability for a while. Why, do you think it’s inappropriate, fellow Daoist?” It was unknown what the green-haired foreigner had to rely on, facing an old man of the same rank as himself, he even spoke with the same lack of politeness.
