Chapter 408
"Great success in the cultivation technique? Hehe, this is just the wishful thinking of two old monsters. They don't even think about how many years this Primordial Magnetic Divine Light technique has been circulating in the Chaotic Star Sea. Has anyone ever truly practiced it to success? Of course, it can be considered that these two guys are lucky; they unintentionally discovered a small Primordial Magnetic Mountain on the seabed and moved it back to Heavenly Star City. But having said that, how can this Primordial Magnetic Divine Light be practiced just by borrowing an external object? I even suspect that this technique is probably a joke deliberately made by the expert who created it. In this world, what technique can restrain the five elements of the world? Moreover, with the cultivation of these two, even if they don't practice this technique, they are rare existences in this realm; it's truly doing something unnecessary!" Ancestor Ji Yin said such words disapprovingly.
"I hope it's as Senior says!" Although Chi Huo was still a bit worried, he could only say so.
"However, besides female cultivators like Fairy Zi Ling, there were actually two others who ran away from the hands of the eighteen Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire; this is truly a bit unexpected!" Ancestor Ji Yin suddenly touched the sparse short beard on his chin, and a strange look flashed in his eyes as he said.
"Yes. Fairy Zi Ling carried the Miaoyin Sect's town-sect treasure, the 'Wood Dragon Tablet,' on her body, which is why the three of them relied on this tablet to protect their bodies and escape the attack of the Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire. But the other two are a bit strange. At that time, I took a look from afar; those two actually released many puppets that looked like mechanical men. Although their attack power wasn't much and their defense was also very poor, they could actually control over a hundred of them at once; this is truly a bit strange." The Chi Huo Old Monster also nodded in agreement with some confusion.
"Forget it, those two are just two small fish. No need to worry about them! If it weren't for the fact that the magic power I could control after possessing this body was truly not much, and there were some other restrictions, I would never have let these juniors slip away from before my eyes. But the main goal is that this rebellious disciple didn't run away. This ancestor still needs to find the stolen Void Heaven remnant map from him." Ancestor Ji Yin said indifferently, seemingly not putting the escaped Han Li and Qu Hun in his heart at all.
Seeing this, the Chi Huo Old Monster found it inconvenient to bring up this matter again. Not long after, he bid farewell and left Ancestor Ji Yin, turning into a black cloud and flying away into the sky.
Ancestor Ji Yin looked at the black dot where the Chi Huo Old Monster had disappeared from the horizon, but a trace of a cold sneer rose at the corner of his mouth.
Then he slowly extended a palm and opened his five fingers.
In the center of his palm, a small section of white spider silk, a few inches long, was actually revealed.
Ancestor Ji Yin looked at this spider silk, and a strange look that was worth pondering flashed in his eyes.
"Blood Jade Spider! I really didn't expect that there would be a day when I could see it again. It seems that heaven does not cut off all paths; I still have a chance!" Ancestor Ji Yin muttered to himself, suddenly laughing wildly toward the sky, shaking Elder Zhao and the others nearby until their faces turned pale, each of them swaying unsteadily in the air.
"Go! Return to the island." Ancestor Ji Yin's wild laughter stopped abruptly, and then he shouted loudly.
Then he grabbed into thin air, and the floating middle-aged cultivator automatically flew into his hand. With one hand, he led the crowd and left this place.
Han Li naturally didn't know everything that happened a hundred miles away. After burying himself deep underground for a full month with fear and trepidation, he finally crawled out of the soil suspiciously.
After carefully confirming with his spiritual sense that there was really no ambush nearby, he took Qu Hun and flew toward Heavenly Star City without a word.
This trip out had truly left him in a sorry state, and he had almost lost his life.
The most depressing thing was that he had taken such a big risk, yet he hadn't even seen the shadow of the Heavenly Lightning Bamboo.
It was estimated that it had fallen into the hands of Ancestor Ji Yin. He had no chance at all now, so he had to return to Heavenly Star City in low spirits.
Heavenly Star City was still as prosperous as usual, and the Star Palace cultivators guarding the gate were also very respectful to him, this senior.
But Han Li, who had just escaped death, could not feel at ease at all, and he walked into the city with a gloomy face.
When he returned to the outside of his cave dwelling on the thirty-ninth floor, he was a bit astonished.
Because within the restriction at the entrance of the cave dwelling, there was actually another sound transmission talisman floating quietly, which made Han Li's face darken.
He frowned, flipped his hand to take out the restriction token, and then shook it lightly and reluctantly twice.
Instantly, a green radiance shot out from the token and flew into the restriction. The sound transmission talisman immediately turned into a streak of fire and flew out along with the green light, arriving in front of Han Li.
Han Li flicked his finger, and a point of white light struck the sound transmission talisman. Instantly, the fire light flared up, and then a charming female voice came from within.
When Han Li heard this voice, he was stunned for a moment, but then his face revealed an angry look.
It was Madam Fan's voice!
She had made him suffer such great bitterness, yet she still dared to shamelessly come knocking.
The anger that Han Li had been holding back for these days suddenly erupted.
Instantly, red light flashed on his hand, and a fireball the size of a fist appeared on his hand, which he was about to throw to destroy this sound transmission talisman.
But the next sentence from this woman made Han Li's heart move, and the movement of his hand immediately hesitated.
After a while, Madam Fan's words disappeared, and the fireball in Han Li's hand was also extinguished by his casual pat. He touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
To tell the truth, that these three female cultivators could escape was a bit unexpected to Han Li.
But now he really didn't have a good face for these people of the Miaoyin Sect.
However, the other party invited him to meet at a certain inn in the sound transmission talisman, and mentioned the Heavenly Lightning Bamboo again, and faintly implied that they seemed to still have this item in their hands. This made Han Li angry, but his heart was also stirred.
Finally, he thought about it and decided to go and see first.
If the other party still wanted to mention revenge and asking for help, he just wouldn't agree. At that time, he would at most pay spirit stones far higher than the market price to buy this bamboo.
He believed that apart from himself, others wouldn't have much use for such a small section of Heavenly Lightning Bamboo.
After all, like these rare wood-attribute materials, apart from refining some special magic treasures, they were generally used as the main raw materials for magic treasures. And listening to Madam Fan's description, that small section of Heavenly Lightning Bamboo was at most a few inches long; even if it were used to refine a dagger, it probably wouldn't be enough after removing the impurities.
Thinking this, Han Li's spirits lifted, and he took Qu Hun to fly toward that inn.
Half an hour later, Han Li appeared in this "Longxing Inn" and walked side by side with Qu Hun toward the guest room on the third floor.
The inn was very particular; the first and second floors were occupied by mortals, and the third floor was specifically for cultivators staying temporarily.
Han Li easily found the room the other party mentioned, but this room door was covered with a thin layer of white light; clearly, the person inside had placed some restrictions on it as a small means of warning.
Seeing this situation, the corner of Han Li's mouth couldn't help but reveal a trace of self-mockery.
It seems these beauties had also become birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, and were just as frightened as he was.
Han Li shook his head slightly, flicked his finger into the void casually, and a point of white light struck the restriction, causing ripples to spread.
No sound came from inside, but a moment later, Han Li felt a spiritual sense fly out from the room, quickly circle around him and Qu Hun, and then immediately shrink back into the room.
Then the white light on the wooden door flashed, and the restriction disappeared. Then, Fairy Zi Ling's cold voice came.
"So it was the two seniors who came. Please come in! We sisters have been waiting for several days."
Hearing this, Han Li pushed open the wooden door with an expressionless face and walked in slowly with Qu Hun.
The furnishings in the room were very simple; apart from a mahogany table and a few antique rattan chairs, there was nothing else.
But what surprised Han Li was that there was no sign of the Miaoyin Sect women in the room; instead, a strange young girl with a lazy expression stood in the middle of the room.
This girl was wearing yellow clothes, her face was like white jade, and her pair of bright eyes were large and clear. She was looking at Han Li with a smile.
"Are you Fairy Zi Ling?" Han Li asked with some disbelief after being stunned, his face full of hesitation.
Although he hadn't seen Fairy Zi Ling's true face, the legendary peerless grace of Fairy Zi Ling couldn't possibly be like this, right?
Although this yellow-shirted girl was also considered delicate and lovely, she definitely couldn't match such a great reputation. Could it be that this wasn't her true face?
Han Li blinked his eyes and thought with some confusion.
"Senior is a bit surprised! Is it that Wang Ning's appearance makes Senior Han a bit disappointed? It is a pity that this is indeed this junior's true face!" The yellow-shirted girl seemed to see Han Li's surprise, smiled lightly, and said indifferently.
"True face?" Han Li focused his gaze on the girl's face for a moment, then shook his head and said nothing.
Although he didn't see anything wrong with this appearance—it didn't look like she had used an illusion on her face, nor did it look like she had disguised herself—he still didn't believe that this was Fairy Zi Ling's true face.
After all, there were many strange treasures in this world; it wasn't strange to have one or two that could change appearance and hide one's true face.
