Chapter 713 – Nangong
”But when my senior nephew went out to purchase something this time, he inadvertently met a senior with unfathomable cultivation, and he insisted that I forward an item to Senior Ancestor Nangong. And also placed a prohibition on my body, saying that only Nangong Master Ancestor could lift it.” Han Li instantly made a sad face and said.
”Senior! It’s a JieDan cultivator?” The fair cultivator was stunned at his words and asked with a bit of surprise.
”This, senior nephew doesn’t know. However, he claimed to be an old acquaintance of Senior Nangong’s ancestor from the past, and heard that Senior Ancestor’s big day was approaching, which is why he sent a congratulatory gift. And also had a few words for me to personally relay to Master Ancestor.” Han Li grimaced in frustration, as if he had been forced to do so.
”Old acquaintance of Master Ancestor? Could it also be any YuanYing stage senior!” This time, another rough-handed-looking cultivator was also a bit surprised.
”That’s possible, but since this senior has already arrived here, why didn’t he personally go up the mountain to deliver the gift?” After the fair cultivator was shocked, he became somewhat puzzled.
”Who knows about that! Perhaps this senior has some other important matter or an inconvenience. Senior nephew Yuan, stretch out your hand and let me take a look at the restraints in your body first!” The rough-handed cultivator guessed twice before nonchalantly speaking to Han Li.
Han Li had expected this, and without the slightest panic, he honestly stretched out an arm, while a stirring of spiritual energy within his body simulated an odd kind of mana prohibition out.
That cultivator held Han Li’s wrist, sensing for a moment, his face revealed a horrified expression. Seeing this, the fair cultivator also curiously placed two fingers on top of Han Li’s arm, resulting in a similarly large change of color on his face before long.
”Not bad, a formidable prohibition has indeed been placed within your body. And looking at the complexity of this prohibition, nine times out of ten it was truly placed by a YuanYing stage cultivator. But based on this alone, the two of us can’t just let you go up the mountain easily. You first that senior’s congratulatory gift out, one of us to help you forward a little to see if it is really the Nangong master ancestor’s old acquaintance and then say. If Master Ancestor recognizes and is willing to see you, only then can you go up the mountain, Master Nephew Yuan, do you understand?” The fair cultivator’s complexion was stark, but his tone was slowed as he said.
Hearing this, Han Li had a bitter look on his face, but after thinking about it, he nodded his head in agreement.
”That’s fine. However, Senior Uncle must speak clearly to Master Ancestor about the prohibition placed on Master Nephew’s body!” Han Li took out a long wooden box from the storage pouch at his waist and handed it over to the other party, adding worriedly.
A light silver-colored forbidden talisman had been affixed to the lid of the wooden box, and from the aura fluctuations it looked as if it was non-trivial, clearly done so to prevent the person who had forwarded it from peeking halfway through.
”Got it, just wait here properly. Senior Ma, I’ll be right there!” The fair cultivator first impatiently rushed Han Li, then after instructing another cultivator, he held the wooden box in his hand and headed behind him with his imperial weapon.
Han Li, on the other hand, could only stand still and wait up.
Although he was confident that Nangong Wan would definitely see him when she saw the box, he was still a little apprehensive when it came to the front.
In his mouth, there was a sentence without a sentence, to deal with the other inquiries of the remaining Foundation Establishment cultivator. But when the other side asked about the consignment of congratulatory gifts “senior” appearance up, was Han Li a “the other side with a cloak, even men and women can not see clearly” words to cope with the past.
After waiting for a full meal, the fair cultivator finally returned with empty hands.
”Nangong master said, that person is indeed his old friend, you can go with me to see the master, and will unlock you by the way.” The fair cultivator was also clean, and after a few short sentences, he greeted Han Li as he followed the vessel up the mountain.
Han Li’s heart was overjoyed, while his face made an excited face as he followed behind the fair cultivator, heading to the top of the mountain.
”Be careful, don’t deviate from the sides of the mountain path, the restrictions here are much more powerful than the middle level. Even if I were to lose my way in, I would never be able to survive.” The fair cultivator coldly warned while leading the way ahead.
Han Li naturally said yes repeatedly.
But at this time, a blue light shot head-on, the fair cultivator seemed to recognize the recluse master, with a respectful look of the imperial weapon stopped on the side, respectfully stood with his hands tied.
In an instant, the light arrived in front of the two of them, after a slight lull, revealing a middle-aged cultivator in brocade with a grim face.
”Senior nephew Sun, how did you bring a Qi refining stage disciple up to the mountain peak, don’t you know the rules here?” The brocade-clothed cultivator swept a glance at Han Li and said coldly with an expressionless face.
”Elder Lan, my nephew brought this disciple up the mountain on the orders of Senior Ancestor Nangong, otherwise my nephew wouldn’t have dared to do so even if he had the greatest guts in the world.” The fair cultivator seemed to be in awe of the brocade-clothed cultivator. He hurriedly opened his mouth to explain.
At this time, Han Li had already carefully swept the other side with his divine sense, this brocade-clothed middle-aged man was just an early JieDan cultivator, so he didn’t need to take it to heart. Although his heart thought so, on the surface Han Li could only make a respectful appearance, not daring to speak easily.
”Senior Uncle Nangong wants to see this person! What’s going on, tell me.” The brocade-clothed cultivator was stunned for a moment at his words, then asked in surprise.
”The matter is like this, this master nephew Yuan ……,” the fair-colored cultivator, not knowing whether he dared not conceal it or felt that the matter did not matter, re-stated Han Li’s matter.
”An old friend of Senior Uncle Nangong’s, with a ban placed on his body?” The brocade-robed cultivator frowned slightly, and between his gazes, he suddenly landed on Han Li’s face like a sharp blade.
”Let me see the restraints on your body!” The brocade-robed cultivator commanded nonchalantly.
Han Li cursed in his heart that this person was looking for trouble over nothing, but he could only helplessly follow the order and step forward.
”Huh! There is indeed something odd. However, although this prohibition is complicated, it is not vicious, so it seems that that person indeed has no malicious intent. You guys go see Senior Uncle Nangong!” The brocade-clothed cultivator similarly grabbed one of Han Li’s wrists and after probing for a moment, said with a nod.
Then he no longer paid any attention to the two of them, his body glowed together, transforming into a light blue recluse light that shot directly down the mountain. A few moments later, its recluse light dimmed and blurred up, suddenly turned into a formless, disappeared without a trace.
”Uncle Blue’s invisible recluse method can be said to be better than blue. Although he is only in the early stage of JieDan, I think it must be that even late stage JieDan cultivators will have a hard time dealing with him!” The fair cultivator waited for that brocade-robed JieDan cultivator to leave, exhaled a deep breath, looked in the direction of the disappearance of the Transportation Light, and muttered a few words to himself.
Han Li’s heart stirred when he heard this. “Invisible Transportation Method!” Could this person have some relationship with the “Old Dome Monster” that had appeared before the Scarlet Trial that day, and was not the disciple or descendant of the “Old Dome Monster”?
At this time, the fair-colored cultivator’s expression loosened and brought Han Li forward again. Han Li then put the matter of the brocade-clothed cultivator behind him.
Because the topmost level of Linglong Mountain, there weren’t many high-level cultivators residing there originally. Aside from the brocade-robed cultivator at the beginning, the two of them did not encounter anyone else and arrived directly in front of a cave dwelling near the highest part of the mountain peak.
”This is where Senior Ancestor Nangong retreats! In a moment, if you are careful to reply to Master Ancestor’s words, perhaps in addition to giving you access to the forbidden system, Master Ancestor Nangong will also have another benefit for you!” The fair cultivator said with some envy.
Then he turned his head and respectfully transmitted his voice right outside the main door, “Enlighten Master Ancestor, disciple has already brought people.”
”Hmm! I know. Let that disciple come in on his own, you go down first!” A woman’s voice that sounded somewhat familiar to Han Li, yet somewhat unfamiliar, faintly came from behind the stone door, followed by a flash of yellow light on the cave’s main door, which opened on its own.
Without hesitation, Han Li took a few steps inside.
As a result, Han Li was somewhat surprised that behind the stone door was standing playfully behind a yellow shirt and short sleeves of a pretty female cultivator, looking at the age of not much, only sixteen or seventeen years of age, but surprisingly had already succeeded in building the foundation, with an early stage of cultivation.
”Follow me, Master Ancestor is waiting for you in the hall!” This female cultivator sized up Yuan Kun in Han Li’s guise for a couple of glances, and seeing that there was nothing outstanding about him, she coldly said this before twisting around and heading deeper into the cave.
Han Li took a light breath and silently followed closely.
Nangong Wan’s cave was not very large, and the pretty woman only led Han Li down a small section of the corridor, then through a few modest rooms before arriving at the so-called hall.
The hall was elegantly and delicately decorated, with some kind of unknown sandalwood incense burning in the corner, and at the doorway there were two small, antique-colored flower racks, each with two trays of precious and rare grasses, emerald green and dripping.
And in the middle of the hall, placed a four-sided compact wooden table, on both sides there is a light green rattan chair. On one of the chairs, there was a young girl with black hair and white clothes, looking down at something in her hand, a huge sword with silver light.
On the wooden table to the side was a wooden box with half of its lid lifted off, and it was empty inside.
