Chapter 1616: Psychic Puppet
"Xianxian!" Han Li repeated it softly, nodded, and added:
"Since I don't need to go deep into the Black Gold Mountain Range, and that Saint-tier demon beast's supernatural powers are greatly reduced, this risk is worth taking. But I'll say it first: if I find that things are not as you said, or if I feel the risk is too great for other reasons, I will abandon this matter at any time. And on the day the Black Gold Mountain Range opens, I hope Fellow Daoist will go with me and lead the way personally. One last point: if this Saint-tier demon beast really has the bloodline of the Mountain-Moving Great Ape, half of the True Spirit blood must be given to me. If any of these conditions are not met, we don't need to trade anymore."
Speaking to the end, Han Li's expression became solemn.
"No problem, this junior agrees to all these conditions." Xianxian pondered for a moment and agreed immediately.
Seeing that the other party agreed so readily, a smile appeared on Han Li's face. He didn't say anything more, flicked his wrist, and a storage bracelet flew out immediately.
He pointed at it with one hand.
Suddenly, a piece of cyan light rolled out, and more than a dozen bottles, wooden boxes, and caskets of various sizes appeared in mid-air.
In addition, there were dozens of colorful top-grade spirit stones floating out as well.
"These medicinal pills can be used from your current stage up to the low-to-mid tier of the Upper Race, and can even help you break through bottlenecks. It's just that the effect varies from person to person. As for those materials, they were also collected after much effort. Fellow Daoist, are you satisfied?" Han Li said indifferently.
Many of those medicinal pills were things Han Li had taken himself, and he even took out the last two bottles of "True Toad Liquid," so he was not afraid of the other party being dissatisfied.
As for those materials, they might be slightly inferior, but they were materials from two Void Refinement stage demon beasts he killed when he was in the Fire Coral Archipelago, which could be considered extremely rare.
It was those top-grade spirit stones that were not easy for him to collect, and taking out so many at once really made his heart ache.
Sure enough, after the woman checked these pills and materials one by one, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"These things are no small matter, and with these top-grade spirit stones, they are enough to be worth the Demonized Battle Armor," the Crystal Race woman raised her hand to collect all the things and spirit stones, and said with a smile.
"As long as Fellow Daoist is satisfied. Let's settle it this way. I will leave a Ten-Thousand-Mile Talisman for you. I won't leave Cloud City for a short time. When the Demon Gold Mountain Range is about to open, you can use this talisman to notify me," Han Li smiled slightly, and with a thought, the surface of the storage bracelet flashed with light, and another palm-sized jade tablet fell out.
Then the storage bracelet turned into a cyan light and whistled back, flashing and disappearing, appearing on Han Li's wrist again.
"Good, this junior has noted it!" The Crystal Race woman nodded with a smile and sucked the jade tablet into her hand.
Han Li didn't say anything more, pinched a formula with both hands, and muttered something.
Suddenly, the golden Dharma image in the black Qi above his head, along with the purple battle armor on his body, flashed and dissipated at the same time.
At the same time, the Nascent Soul in Han Li's dantian curled its lips and smiled.
On its originally naked, white, and chubby body, there was an extra set of purple-red battle armor.
The rest was simple.
After the woman named "Xianxian" used a magic disk to send the two back to the original shop, Han Li did not stay long and left immediately.
In the following time, Han Li visited many other shops he was interested in, one after another, mainly material shops, magic tool shops, talisman shops, and various specialized shops.
Although he also gained something, compared to the Heavenly Demon Armor Han Li obtained, it naturally could not be compared at all.
Han Li stayed on this street for a full day and night, and when the sky was dim again, he called a beast cart to return to his residence.
For more than ten days in a row, Han Li did nothing, just strolling through the streets of Cloud City and hundreds of shops.
In this way, Han Li finally had a preliminary understanding of Cloud City.
At night, Xiang Xiang Zhili would occasionally come over and chat with Han Li for a while.
During this period, Cloud City looked tight on the outside but loose on the inside, and everything in the city was as usual, without any tense atmosphere of a great war coming.
I really don't know if the Tianyun tribes were already accustomed to the attack of the Jiao Chi tribe, or if they thought the Jiao Chi tribe couldn't reach the vicinity of Cloud City at all.
On this day, when Han Li came out of the inn again, he didn't go to any shops, but directly said "Yunxia Mountain!" to the coachman who stopped the beast cart, and then got into the cart without saying another word.
The beast cart suddenly galloped on the street.
This time, the cart almost crossed more than half of Cloud City and stopped at the foot of a "high mountain".
Han Li got off the cart and looked at the behemoth in front of him with narrowed eyes for a while.
This was indeed a "high mountain", more than three thousand feet high, green and lush, and at the same time, a pure spiritual energy rushed towards him. This mountain actually seemed to have an extreme spirit vein.
Han Li looked around, and there were seven other such mountains nearby, all of similar size.
This is the famous "Eight Cloud Mountains" of Cloud City!
It is said that a long time ago, several great existences in the city used unfathomable supernatural powers to forcibly move the eight mountains on the ground to Cloud City, and additionally detained eight top-grade spirit veins from the ground and hit them into the mountains. Thus, eight spirit mountains were formed that were not in other spirit vein areas on the ground!
These eight spirit mountains are also the only spirit lands in Cloud City that can be lived in for a long time and used for cultivation, with many caves of all sizes.
These caves do not belong to any one person privately, but are all rented out. Of course, the rental period of these caves is counted in hundreds of years, and the cost is shockingly expensive.
But even so, most of the caves in the Eight Cloud Mountains were rented out, and sometimes there was even a situation where supply could not meet demand.
Jia Tianmu's temporary cave was in this "Yunxia Mountain" in front of him.
According to the address left in the cave, Han Li's body glowed with cyan light, and he immediately turned into a cyan rainbow and flew straight to the mountain.
The Eight Cloud Mountains area is also one of the few places in Cloud City where magic power is allowed to be used for direct flight.
Han Li naturally had no major scruples.
And the reason why he appeared here was naturally because of the so-called "Psychic Puppet" promised by the other party. During this period, Han Li naturally learned a lot about the situation of the Wangu tribe.
Although this tribe is only medium-sized among the thirteen Tianyun tribes, their research on puppet arts has reached an unimaginable level. It is said to be one of the three major tribes in the Thunderous Continent that is best at puppet arts.
And the "Psychic Puppet" that he didn't understand before, after Han Li read the classics and listened to Xiang Xiang Zhili's narration, finally understood what was going on.
Not to mention that this kind of puppet must have at least the power of the Spirit Severing stage, it actually has a certain spirituality, and can execute some simple orders on its own even without the manipulation of a split soul, which shows how rare it is!
And it is said that the spirituality of this kind of puppet also has the possibility of self-evolution, and finally can even have not low intelligence.
Of course, this is just a legend, and the Wangu tribe has never publicly admitted it, but even so, it has added a layer of mysterious color to the Psychic Puppet.
Of course, this kind of Psychic Puppet is not easy to refine even for the Wangu tribe, and generally will not be sold to the outside world.
Even if one or two occasionally flow out, they are all snatched up by other races, and each one can be sold for an unimaginable sky-high price.
Hearing so many strange things about the Psychic Puppet, Han Li himself is also proficient in puppet refining, so he is naturally very interested in this.
Plus he has some other purposes, so he came to this mountain in person.
After Han Li turned into a cyan rainbow and flashed a few times, he circled and landed in a remote place on the mountainside.
Not far in front of him, there was an inconspicuous mountain wall, and a stone door several feet high was embedded in the wall.
Han Li did not go up to knock on the door directly, but flicked his sleeve, and suddenly a fire light shot out, flashed, and disappeared into the stone door without a sound.
As a result, not long after, the surface of the stone door flashed with white light, and the door opened by itself.
Jia Tianmu walked out with a full face of smiles.
"Haha, it really is Fellow Daoist Han. But why did you arrive only now? I have been waiting for several days."
"Han had some things to attend to, so I was delayed for a few days. Fellow Daoist Jia, please don't take offense!" Han Li looked at the other party carefully and found that the other party's complexion was very good, so he smiled and said.
"So that's how it is. This is not a place to talk. Fellow Daoist, please come in and have a chat in the cave." Jia Tianmu nodded and invited him with unusual enthusiasm.
"Then I will be disrespectful." Han Li did not stand on ceremony and walked over with big strides.
Jia Tianmu's cave was not large. After passing through a short passage, he entered a hall about thirty feet wide.
It was decorated elegantly and uniquely, with several glowing round beads embedded in the ceiling, and a table, two tea tables, and hundreds of chairs were placed in the middle of the hall.
Apart from that, there was nothing else. Even the four walls of the hall were just ordinary bluestone.
"Fellow Daoist, please sit." After Jia Tianmu sat down in the main seat, he greeted him.
Han Li nodded and sat down on one side.
"Clap", "clap" two sounds came, Jia Tianmu didn't say anything, and clapped his hands twice first.
Han Li's eyes flashed, and he looked at a side door on one side.
Footsteps came from inside the door.
A moment later, a beautiful woman in her twenties, dressed in a yellow palace dress, walked out gracefully, holding a long wooden box in both hands.
The woman walked to the middle of the hall in a while, put the wooden box in her hand on the tea table in front of Han Li, and stood respectfully to one side without speaking.
A strange scene appeared!
Han Li's eyes just swept over the wooden box in front of him, then looked up again, narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman who came out, a strange look appeared on his face.
"Why, Fellow Daoist, do you fancy this maid in my mansion? If you really like her, how about I give her to you?" Jia Tianmu saw this scene and said with a light laugh.
