Chapter 1157

"Not good, another high-tier cultivator is coming. Net" The elderly man exclaimed.

"How could such a high-tier cultivator come to such a remote island? Is it not your subordinates who leaked the news?" The beautiful woman's face changed drastically, and she asked the gray-robed elderly man in shock and anger.

"I didn't mention the purpose of this trip to any of my disciples, so how could the news have leaked?" The elderly man shook his head hurriedly, saying solemnly.

"Don't panic on your own. Maybe this person is just passing by. We will act according to the situation!" The blue-robed youth said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman and the elderly man could only follow his advice and regain their composure.

Just at this moment, the green light, which had looked extremely far away, arrived nearby with the sound of breaking air, and they could even see the figure of a man faintly visible in the green light.

"What a fast escape speed!"

The faces of the three changed drastically, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.

After flickering a few more times, the green light arrived above the three. As the light faded, a green-robed cultivator was revealed, but he only looked to be in his twenties, which made the gray-robed elderly man and the others stunned again.

"Is this Magic Lake Island?" The youth scanned the three and asked expressionlessly, actually carrying a tone of command.

The three elderly men's hearts sank slightly. After scanning Han Li's body with their divine sense, they were shocked.

The spiritual power on the youth was far stronger than the three of them combined; at a glance, he was a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage or above, which was almost the worst possible situation.

"This is indeed Magic Lake Island. May I ask what instructions the senior has? The three juniors are willing to be of service," the gray-robed elderly man suppressed the strangeness in his heart, hurriedly bowed, and asked with a fawning smile.

"It is Magic Lake Island. Then I haven't come to the wrong place. Eh, you are here...!" The youth looked at the group of low-tier cultivators setting up magic arrays by the lake, was slightly stunned, and then revealed a mocking expression.

"Because the junior needs to refine several special magic tools, I need a large amount of Emerald Copper, so I brought some disciples to salvage more," the gray-robed elderly man felt a chill in his heart, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.

The youth seemed not to be an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator. No matter how he secretly scanned him with his divine sense, he could not accurately judge the other party's specific realm. He had never experienced such a thing before.

One must know that he was a late-stage Core Formation cultivator; logically speaking, even a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator could not hide from his divine sense.

"Emerald Copper? And you use these magic arrays for breaking barriers to salvage this material?"

The youth crossed his arms, looked at the magic arrays set up by the low-tier cultivators by the lake, then lowered his head to look at the emerald green lake surface, and actually chuckled a few times.

But anyone could hear the disbelief in his laughter.

Upon seeing this, the gray-robed elderly man broke into a cold sweat. He never expected the other party to be proficient in the way of magic arrays. One must know that generally, array masters proficient in magic arrays do not have very high cultivation, and cultivators with high cultivation usually do not waste time specifically researching the way of magic arrays.

And the magic arrays he set up were not ordinary magic arrays; they were considered relatively rare and remote magic arrays. The other party could recognize them at a glance, which showed that the other party's attainments in magic arrays were absolutely not low.

The beautiful woman and the blue-robed youth became obedient in an instant, lowering their heads and drooping their eyes, completely looking like they were following the elderly man's lead.

But in this way, he had to face the youth alone.

While secretly complaining, he also hated these two people to the bone.

After all, Nascent Soul old monsters don't have good tempers. Now that he had to answer all the questions, the danger could be imagined.

"Senior, don't misunderstand. The junior is quite interested in the way of magic arrays; setting up these magic arrays is just to test the effects of several magic arrays," the elderly man said in a hurry, actually coming up with a reason that seemed to make sense.

The youth's expression remained unchanged. He examined the three carefully with his gaze, but suddenly said something that startled the three.

"What relationship do you three have with Man Man Huzi?"

"What does the senior mean by this? The junior doesn't quite understand," the beautiful woman raised her head and couldn't help but speak.

"The cultivation techniques you practice are different, but they all clearly have the shadow of Man Man Huzi's 'Tuo Tian Mo Gong'. Others might not be able to discover it, but meeting me, hehe..." The youth smiled indifferently.

"Does the senior know Master?" Seeing that they couldn't muddle through, the blue-robed youth took a deep breath and finally acknowledged it.

Hearing this question, the elderly man and the beautiful woman revealed expressions of unease.

"Only met a few times. You three are here to take treasures from the lake bottom! Man Man Huzi claimed that only he knew the treasure cave, but now you three have popped up. It seems either he was lying to me, or you three found the treasure cave location through other channels," the youth said the last few sentences to himself.

But these words, heard by the three below, were like a bolt from the blue, leaving them all dumbfounded.

Even with the bad premonition, the other party calling out the secret cave matter so directly still left the three at a loss. If a Core Formation cultivator had come, the three would have immediately taken action to wipe the other party out. But a Nascent Soul cultivator had come, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

And hearing the other party's tone, the other party knew that this place was personally told to him by Man Man Huzi, which left them even more at a loss.

Could it be that their Master hadn't passed away yet?

Thinking of this thought, the three's faces shifted again.

"The three of us are indeed disciples of Master, but I don't know how the senior addresses Master," the beautiful woman was the first to regain her composure, forcing a smile and saying.

"Naturally, I call him Man Man Huzi! You three... eh, I didn't expect this small island to be so lively. Who is hiding there? Get out here!" Han Li said half of his sentence indifferently, but suddenly his face sank. He raised his hand and flicked his five fingers lightly toward a hill by the lake.

Suddenly, several green threads sprayed out, and after a flash of light, they transformed into several green lights a foot long, slashing fiercely.

Seeing this scene, the beautiful woman's face turned pale.

After several loud bangs, after the several thick green lights flashed, they actually slashed away a small half of the hill. But what shocked the youth and the elderly man was that inside the destroyed hill, a bald, burly man appeared.

This person had a face full of flesh, but his entire body was shining with golden light, as if his clothing and robe were all made of red gold.

At this moment, the burly man was holding a golden, misty shield with one hand, releasing a semi-circular golden barrier to block the sword lights, looking at Han Li with a face full of shock.

"Golden Flower Ancestor!" Upon seeing this burly man in golden clothing, the gray-robed elderly man blurted out in shock.

And just at this moment, a red light flashed and shot toward the burly man. After flickering twice, it landed behind the brocade-robed burly man, revealing a graceful figure.

It was actually the beautiful woman!

"Junior Sister Cai, you actually colluded with Golden Flower Ancestor!" The gray-robed elderly man was a person who had experienced many storms and waves; upon seeing this scene, his mind turned, and he shouted in shock and anger.

The blue-robed youth on the side also had his face sink.

Clearly, the beautiful woman had the intention of joining hands with the golden-robed burly man to eliminate them as soon as the cave was opened, so she could seize all the treasures.

"Hmph, what qualifications do you two have to talk about me? Senior Brother Wu, didn't you secretly notify the Blood Light Sect to intercept and kill me halfway? As for Junior Brother Lei, you also joined the Wood Sword Pavilion of Grass Capital Island and are preparing to marry the daughter of the Wood Sword Pavilion Master? And your dowry for joining the Wood Sword Pavilion is all the treasures in this cave? If I hadn't been clever enough, I'm afraid the day the cave barrier was broken would have been the day I lost my life. However, now, don't count on the reinforcements from your two sides. The Ancestor has already arranged for people to intercept them halfway. I have accompanied Man Man Huzi for so many years; the things he left behind should all be mine. And the Ancestor has already promised to officially marry me as his wife," the beautiful woman laughed triumphantly, and intimately stood side by side with the golden-robed burly man.

"Since that's the case, Junior Sister, why did you take the initiative to find me and Senior Brother Wu in the first place? Why not take the treasures yourself?" The blue-robed youth heard the beautiful woman expose his plan, a flash of panic appearing on his face, but he immediately calmed down and asked gloomily.

"If the barrier at the bottom of the lake hadn't been exceptionally profound and difficult to open, and only you two had obtained some of Man Man Huzi's true teachings in the way of arrays, why would I have told you two about the treasure location?" It seemed the beautiful woman intended to completely tear her face off with the elderly man and the other, and at this moment, she said coldly without any scruples.

The faces of the gray-robed elderly man and the youth naturally became extremely ugly.

"Alright, we can talk about your and their matters later. I will chat with this fellow Daoist for a few sentences first," the golden-robed burly man frowned and interrupted the words the beautiful woman still wanted to say.

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman immediately obeyed and stopped speaking.

"Is this fellow Daoist also here for Man Man Huzi's secret treasure cave?" Golden Flower Ancestor examined Han Li a few times and asked slowly. As a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he also could not see Han Li's cultivation, feeling great fear in his heart.

"That's right, I want the things at the bottom of the lake. If you have nothing to do, you can leave," Han Li hovered in mid-air, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he said words that made everyone look at him sideways.

Upon hearing this, the golden-robed burly man was furious, and at the same time, he felt a chill in his heart. The opponent's tone was so arrogant; he must truly have some powerful divine abilities.

Thinking of this, the burly man suppressed a trace of anger in his heart and said with a straight face:

"Fellow Daoist speaks quite easily. Do you want to send me back and swallow all the treasures here alone?"

Golden Flower Ancestor's tone became somewhat unkind!
