Chapter 252: Ghost Spirit Sect

Han Li walked into the third floor, and several spiritual senses immediately swept over, making his heart tighten.

These people were all at the Foundation Establishment mid-stage, much stronger than him, a Foundation Establishment early-stage cultivator. The four years of closed-door cultivation in the cave only brought his magic power close to the Foundation Establishment mid-stage, but there was still a layer of window paper that hadn't been pierced, which made Han Li somewhat regretful.

However, thinking about it, this was normal. After all, his speed of reaching the Foundation Establishment mid-stage in four years was already much faster than ordinary cultivators. And this last layer of window paper was the first bottleneck after his Foundation Establishment, which couldn't be easily crossed just by relying on medicine, and mostly required a certain opportunity.

Otherwise, no matter how much medicine he took, it would only make his magic power deeper, but this layer of realm couldn't be easily crossed.

Han Li thought while roughly sizing up everything on the floor.

Everyone on the third floor was a Foundation Establishment cultivator. But obviously, these cultivators were divided into two groups. One group was dressed in the seven major sects' attire that Han Li was very familiar with, and the other group was dressed in messy and mixed attire, all composed of cultivators from other countries.

There were only five cultivators from the seven major sects, but they all sat at one table, discussing something in a low voice, appearing relatively intimate. As for the foreign cultivators, although there were seven or eight of them, most of them sat at one or two tables, tasting tea with indifferent expressions, without whispering or discussing with each other.

Such a contrast between movement and stillness made Han Li feel an atmosphere of confrontation and hostility.

Han Li's arrival naturally attracted the attention of other cultivators. Except for the few who checked him at the beginning, others also looked at him. Han Li walked toward the table of the seven major sects without hesitation, after all, he should also be one of them.

Han Li's approach made other cultivators withdraw their gazes and ignore him! As for those from the seven sects, they stood up one after another with smiles to welcome him.

Han Li's Yellow Maple Valley attire didn't need introduction, and these people were naturally very familiar with it.

"I am Han Li from Yellow Maple Valley! Greetings to several senior brothers and senior sisters!" Han Li lowered his posture. Among the five people in front of him, three were actually at the Foundation Establishment mid-stage, and the other two were at the same Foundation Establishment early-stage level as him.

"Junior Martial Brother Han! I am Wu Wu Fa Zi from Qingxu Gate, and this is Junior Martial Brother Wuyouzi. And these three are Junior Martial Brother Wu from Spirit Beast Mountain, Senior Martial Brother Ba from Giant Sword Gate, and Junior Martial Sister Fang from Heaven's Vault Fortress." The older of the two Taoist priests at the table politely returned a salute to Han Li and simply introduced everyone at the table.

"Since Junior Martial Brother has arrived, let's taste the Snow Bell Tea famous in the Yan family first! This is the top-grade spiritual tea specially provided by the teahouse only for foreign cultivators!" The middle-aged man from Spirit Beast Mountain, who was smiling, immediately picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of spiritual tea for Han Li, which was shrouded in white mist.

Han Li nodded in return with a smile, then took a small sip.

Regardless of whether this person was sincerely pouring tea for him, everyone still had to do the surface work.

"Good tea!" Han Li, who didn't pay much attention to tea, couldn't help but praise it.

As soon as this tea entered his stomach, a cool feeling of ice and snow rose from his abdomen, followed by a fragrance in his lips and tongue, which was endless aftertaste!

The middle-aged cultivator heard this, and the smile on his face became even stronger.

"Junior Martial Brother Han's face is very strange, I wonder which Elder's newly accepted high disciple you are?" The twenty-something, ordinary-looking Junior Martial Sister Fang asked generously.

"My master is Li Li Huayuan, and I have only been officially accepted into the sect for a few years since my Foundation Establishment! I hope several senior brothers and senior sisters will give me some guidance!" Han Li seemed to say sincerely.

"How can we talk about any guidance! Everyone is just exchanging with each other. Since Junior Martial Brother Han can be accepted into the sect by Master Li, and is sent out to stand alone at such a young age, you must have your own merits, so don't be so self-deprecating!" This time it was the middle-aged man from Giant Sword Gate who spoke. Although he looked honest and loyal, what he said was watertight, which surprised Han Li.

Han Li naturally humbled himself a few words. In this way, except for the silent and thin Wuyouzi, Han Li soon became hot with these cultivators.

"What were several people discussing just now?" After Han Li dealt with them for a few words, he finally led the topic to the main point, asking so casually.

"Nothing! We were all guessing the reason why so many foreign cultivators suddenly came to Yan Ling Castle. This is truly somewhat abnormal! Although the Universe Pagoda talisman treasure is very precious, it couldn't have such a great attraction." Wu Wu Fa Zi answered Han Li's question with a solemn expression.

However, it happened to hit the point of Han Li's suspicion, making him nod repeatedly to express agreement.

"We discussed for a while, but still couldn't find any clues."

"I don't think the possibility of strange treasures being born here and attracting them is high. Because if that were really the case, it wouldn't just be Foundation Establishment stage cultivators coming here, Core Formation stage experts would have swarmed here long ago, and it wouldn't be so calm. As for other reasons, it can't be explained at all?" The Fang surname cultivator continued.

"Let's not guess wildly. I think after two days, when the Treasure-Snatching Assembly begins, everything will be revealed. I am somewhat uneasy about the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators who appeared today. I always feel that this group of people is extraordinary! They actually made Yan family disciples suffer repeatedly, which is truly too surprising. I wonder if any of you know their origins?" The middle-aged cultivator from Spirit Beast Mountain frowned and asked, his smiling expression completely gone. It seemed that he was truly very uneasy about those cultivators.

This question from the Fang surname cultivator immediately made most people, including Han Li, look at each other!

Most of them were hearing about this sect for the first time. After all, one could tell it wasn't a good sect just by the name, and it was ten to nine likely to be demonic path people. I don't know which country's sect it was nearby, and it could make the Yan family, who was the local snake, so afraid, and didn't turn hostile immediately after injuring so many disciples. It seemed that the fierce flames definitely couldn't be small.

But since it was most people, naturally there was one person who performed differently from others. This person was actually the somewhat cold and remote Wuyouzi. Only he didn't change his expression, as if he knew about the Ghost Spirit Sect, which made others look forward to it.

"Junior Martial Brother, do you know about the Ghost Spirit Sect?" Wu Wu Fa Zi also asked with great surprise. This junior martial brother of his didn't like to associate with people, but liked to read various books and scrolls. It was possible that he really knew a thing or two!

"Ghost Spirit Sect, one of the six sects of the demonic path in the Heavenly Luo Kingdom, specializes in driving ghosts and controlling demons, and is also proficient in poison techniques and some dark techniques. Although it belongs to the weakest sect among the six sects, it is also three points more prosperous than our Yue Kingdom's largest Yanyue Sect."

Wuyouzi raised his head and said these few sentences coldly, then closed his mouth again. But these few sentences were enough to make others' faces change greatly.

"Demonic sect of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom? I said why the Yan family is so forbearing! That is a super power that is several times larger than our seven sects. In this region, except for the Righteous Alliance of the Fengdu Kingdom, other countries' cultivation forces cannot resist their invasion alone." This time it was the man from Giant Sword Gate who talked about the tiger and changed color.

"Can't be wrong, such a large force, why would they suddenly come to our Yue Kingdom and come to participate in such a small Treasure-Snatching Assembly?" The female cultivator said somewhat incredulously, naturally bringing out a bit of suspicion in her words.

"Volume 2, Chapter 4 of 'Tiannan Notes'!" Wuyouzi said coldly.

"Ah..." The female cultivator didn't understand at first, but after a while, she knew what the other party meant.

This was a set of classics that all major sects had, specifically introducing the customs and some strange stories of some countries in this region. It seemed that it really involved some things about the cultivation world, but because there were too many books, the female cultivator only read a few books in a hurry and was too lazy to look at them carefully. Could it be that the matter of the Ghost Spirit Sect could actually be found in this book?

Perhaps seeing that not only her, but other people also showed puzzled expressions, Wuyouzi opened his mouth again reluctantly:

"In this part of the second volume, not only the Ghost Spirit Sect, but also the other five sects are roughly introduced!"

Seeing Wuyouzi so sure, others finally believed what he said. This time, besides horror, everyone began to carefully savor the intention of the Ghost Spirit Sect's sudden appearance at the Yan family. Han Li also habitually rubbed his nose and fell into deep thought.

Is the demonic path six sects of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom going to invade the Yue Kingdom on a large scale?

No, there are still two small countries, the Jiang Kingdom and the Cheqi Kingdom, between the Yue Kingdom and the Heavenly Luo Kingdom. Even if they invade, they must first settle the sects of these two countries.

But although these two countries are small, their cultivation world strength is not weak, and they are enough to be equivalent to the strength of the seven sects of the Yue Kingdom combined. Even if the demonic path six sects are powerful, they cannot easily take down two countries silently.

Moreover, they still have the Righteous Alliance of the Fengdu Kingdom eyeing them on the side! I think they won't give them a chance to expand their strength.

After Han Li pondered for a while, he finally ruled out the worst situation!
