Chapter 96: Old Tricks Again

Hiding under a boulder more than ten meters deep, Li An also deliberately dug a lot of soil from the surrounding cave walls to bury him completely.

Just like when he was hiding in the mud, he took a reed pipe for breathing.

This was mainly because he considered that if there was a cultivator with strong spiritual sense, even if he could not detect his life breath, he would be able to find something like a "human figure" underneath if he scanned carefully.

What if the other party was a cautious person and dug three feet into the ground to take a look, wouldn't it be exposed?

He buried himself shallowly with some soil, and the other party couldn't even detect his body.

He waited here quietly.

Seven or eight days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these seven or eight days, he used his spiritual sense to sense many travelers coming and going.

Including Gu Hong.

When Gu Hong left for Tianyang City, Li An was quite relieved.

Now in this world, except for himself, he doesn't care about anyone's life and death, and he has no worries.

Only Gu Hong made him care a little.

However, even if Gu Hong left, he did not make any move.

He would not let Gu Hong know about this action.

Just like that, in the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

"Have you heard? There is a big movement over at Baihu Mountain, there is a roar of the third-level formation, and the earth is like an earthquake!"

"Yes, it is said to be a sign of the gushing of mother energy. Some strong people predicted that it is very likely that Baihu Zhenren will change his golden elixir!"

"Is it true? Isn't Baihu Zhenren a true elixir cultivator? He can also become a golden elixir... This is too outrageous?"

More and more people came and went. Some people went to Baihu City from other places to witness this rare ceremony in the world, and there were also some cautious people.

Almost no one came out of Baihu City, because after the ceremony began, the entire Baihu City was blocked and no one was allowed to enter or leave, so as not to disturb Baihu Zhenren's major events.

This made Li An very fortunate.

If Li An hadn't gotten some gossip from Manman and learned the exact time from Guo Xiaoxiao, he might have been trapped in the city now.

He would have had to face such a catastrophe.

This is the world of immortal cultivation. No matter how much you want to hide, be cautious, and keep your duty, under the competition of the upper-level bigwigs, a small aftermath will be a killing disaster for you.

A speck of dust that falls from the hands of the upper-level people is a mountain on the head of the weak!

Therefore, whenever Li An arrives at a place, he will pay special attention to the upper-level movements, even gossip, for this reason.

The weak will always only become the price of the struggle of the strong.

If you don't want to become the price, you must learn to run away in time. If you can't beat those grandsons, just run away.

Li An waited silently.

...

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed.

In these two months, more and more cultivators from all over the country have gone to Baihu City via Beiyang Avenue. According to their discussion, the mother energy is now stagnant over the White Tiger City, the energy of the earth is pouring back, and the sound of dragons and tigers roaring on the White Tiger Mountain shakes the sky!

Li An speculated that the White Tiger Master should have reached the most critical period——

And, as Li An expected, a demon cultivator appeared at the mountain pass where he was.

Li An quietly sensed that there were a dozen demon cultivators, and the demon energy on their bodies was "Yin Yang Demon Energy" instead of "Blood Demon Energy".

The demon cultivators who practiced Yin Yang Demon Furnace and Blood and Flesh Furnace had demon energy, but there were subtle differences.

This difference could no longer be hidden from Li An.

"The two demon cultivators who deal with the White Tiger City are mainly the Blood and Flesh Furnace lineage, and the Yin Yang Demon Furnace lineage is supplemented?"

Li An was guessing.

On the morning of the third day, Li An sensed the breath of the demon cultivators in the foundation-building period, which made him restrain himself immediately and no longer make too many investigations.

"It should be soon!"

Li An was ready.

In the evening. Li An first felt an inexplicable feeling from the Flesh and Blood Furnace, which made him realize that one of the three puppets he controlled should have died.

Chen Qingling was smarter than a ghost and was not in Baihu City.

As for his other stand-in "Li An", he arranged for him to join another bandit's nest and hide, so he should not face any danger for a while.

It is most likely Guo Xiaoxiao!

Li An was relieved that this woman was dead, so as to avoid endless troubles.

However, this also means... the war in Baihu City should have broken out.

Just one hour after he sensed Guo Xiaoxiao's death.

"Run away-run away!"

"Baihu City is over, Baihu City is over, the Yin-Yang Demon Cult reappears!"

"Run!"

Anxious shouts came from the direction of Baihu City.

There should be a lot of people.

But hundreds of people escaped through the mountain pass in succession, and the Demon Cult did not move at all.

This made Li An a little confused.

Three or four hours passed. There were a lot of people passing through the border, but they became sparser later.

The last wave of refugees, about fifty or sixty people, passed through the mountain pass.

Boom!

Finally, the formation that the Yin-Yang Demon Cult had prepared long ago started to move.

A bloody ambush unfolded.

Some people were wailing, some were crying, and some were fighting...

The host here was a demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, and the strongest among the refugees was also a master in the early stage of foundation building, and a bloody battle broke out between the two sides.

Unfortunately, the master in the early stage of foundation building had no way to face the ambush of the demon cult, and finally died in hatred.

"Old Five, you take some people to stay here, I will go to kill the fish in the net."

The demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building said: "Old rules, I will take half of the profit of this battle, and the rest, you will share."

Then, the demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building left instantly.

The remaining seven or eight demon cultivators were very happy, and sat down to divide things.

"This group of poor devils, fifty-seven people, only have more than 14,000 spirit stones... Fortunately, there is a second-level explosion talisman and a second-level meteorite iron!"

The old five who was dividing the things spoke up and divided the things one by one, and everyone was very happy.

Li An hid in the soil, motionless.

He didn't make a move.

Because he had done this kind of thing before, who knows if the Demon Cult will be prepared?

Wait for a day or two slowly.

Besides, now he has figured it out, it seems that the Yin-Yang Demon Cult is not setting up a certain level of ambush this time, but a whole ambush circle!

It's like a pocket.

And this mountain pass here is the pocket.

Put enough people into the subsequent ambush, and then set up this place.

This time, I don't know how many people will die in the hands of the Demon Cult!

Until the next morning.

"Hey, sir, why are you back?"

The old five and other demon cultivators who were waiting here spoke in surprise again.

The demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building returned!

"No surprises, no anomalies?"

The demon cultivator in the foundation building asked.

"My Lord, there is nothing. There were a few scattered cultivators who came and we dealt with them all."

The demon cultivator in the foundation building seemed to ponder for a long time, and then finally left.

"Lord Qi An is too cautious..."

Someone couldn't help but speak.

"You know nothing... In the battle of Xuanyang Sect, Lord Qi An was in charge of the Mashan Ferry, but he was robbed by others and became a laughing stock in the sect. Now Lord Qi An is naturally cautious."

"However, Lord Qi An is indeed a little too cautious. A little talisman master can cheat us for the first time, and he can cheat us for the second time. Isn't that a joke?"

Everyone understood.

...

Underground.

Li An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he was more careful.

That demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building might not have gone far, but has been "counter-hunting" here.

Did he really cause me a psychological trauma?

Li An couldn't help but feel complicated. Is this necessary?

Then, it is estimated that the mid-stage foundation building demon cultivator has gone far away, and while Lao Wu and others are off guard-

Boom!

The second-level magic array he preset here exploded!

…

On the ground.

"Fuck???"

Lao Wu and seven or eight demon cultivators were all shocked at this moment.

How could there really be a magic array here?

"Fuck, Lao Wu, are we really...really going to be tricked again?"

Someone spoke dumbfounded!

…
