Chapter 190 Closing the Net

In a secret private room in a restaurant.

Three people have already sat down.

In addition to Li An and Lu Tong, the third person is an octogenarian. His hair and beard are all gray, his face is yellow, and there is a lot of turbid evil in his eyes. Obviously, he is the talisman master who was possessed by the soul evil that Li An knew!

After years of waiting, he finally fished this old guy out!

In fact, Li An has been planning for many years for today, and has invested a lot.

A few years ago, he started to refine the second-grade soul-clearing pill, and he also sold a top-grade soul-clearing pill.

At that time, it was just to catch this fish!

After all, this person was possessed by the soul evil, and the third-grade soul-clearing pill was necessary to be useful.

But it is very difficult to collect medicinal materials for the third-grade soul-clearing pill, and even if all the medicinal materials are found, it is not easy to refine it. Generally, few alchemists can refine the soul-clearing pill, and alchemy experience also needs to be considered.

Therefore, Li An, who has his own herbs and is an experienced alchemist, will inevitably become the other party's only choice!

"This is Fellow Daoist Guo Jisheng. He is a talisman master. The third-grade Qingling grass you want is in his hands."

Lu Tong introduced Li An and Guo Jisheng, "Brother Guo, this is Fellow Daoist Mu Shi I told you about. He is a third-grade alchemist, and he is preparing to refine the third-grade Qinghun Pill!"

Li An and Guo Jisheng both hugged each other and greeted each other.

"I wonder how confident you are in refining the third-grade Qinghun Pill?"

Guo Jisheng went straight to the point and asked Li An.

What he cares most about is the success rate of the pill. After all, he has consulted some familiar alchemists over the years, but the answers given are all 30% to 40%!

This means that even if he prepares enough herbs, he may not be able to get the Qinghun Pill. He may need to prepare three or four...

That's too difficult!

Li An said: "I have been studying the Soul Purifying Pill for many years and have 50% to 60% experience. If I can find another place to refine it, I can reach 80%."

In fact, he has just become a third-grade alchemist and has insufficient experience. It is impossible for him to have 50% to 60% experience!

But with Shangguan Xiaoxiao's help, he has more confidence, and the most important thing is that the other party will believe it.

Guo Jisheng nodded. The 80% chance is indeed worth a try.

"I heard from Daoist Lu that Daoist Mu has been looking for Qingling Grass for many years. It seems that this thing is very important to you..." He smiled slightly, "In this case, how about we cooperate? I will give you Qingling Grass, and finally make a pill, half for each of us." Li An heard this, but laughed and said, "Daoyou Guo is good at doing business! You only gave one Qingling Grass, but you want to take half of the pill?" "Don't forget, there are seven medicinal materials in Qinghun Pill, four of which are the main ingredients. You only gave Qingling Grass, and it was made by me..." Guo Jisheng looked a little embarrassed, but still said, "In addition to Qingling Grass, I also found Hanpo Grass and Shuhua Root, which can also be taken out..." Li An shook his head and said, "These two are just auxiliary medicines, I have already collected them." Guo Jisheng said, "What does Daoist mean?" "If Daoist Guo must give me half of the Qinghun Pill, he must compensate me with other things-" Li An was very direct. "Okay, I'm willing to pay for the spirit stones!" Guo Jisheng nodded.

Li An smiled, "Do you think I'm short of spirit stones?"

"What do you want?" Guo Jisheng felt uneasy.

Li An said, "Fourth-grade Five-gold Grass, Blue Sky Flower, and Earth Breast Milk are all OK."

Guo Jisheng shook his head, "These are all ingredients for the Infant Transformation Pill, so precious, I don't have them."

Even if I have them, I can't give them out!

Li An said: "But apart from that, there is not much that interests me about Brother Guo..."

He thought for a moment and said: "I am quite curious about the art of talismans. I am preparing to practice recently. How about Brother Guo teach me all the talismans you have mastered?"

Guo Jisheng frowned immediately, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes, "Impossible!"

Li An immediately stood up and bowed, "Since Brother Guo is unwilling, forget it. Mu has never liked to force people."

"Brother Lu, thank you for the information you provided. Mu will repay you in the future."

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Lu Tong and Guo Jisheng's faces changed slightly. Guo Jisheng glanced at Lu Tong, who stood up hurriedly and said, "Brother Mu, why are you so anxious! This matter is of great importance, and Brother Guo is sincere. Let's talk more..."

Li An said, "To be honest with Brother Xu, although this Qingling grass is hard to find, I am not completely clueless. It will take a few more years at most... But since Fellow Daoist Guo doesn't have the ingredients for the Infant Transformation Pill I want, and he is unwilling to pass on the Talisman to me, there is nothing else that will tempt me."

"In addition, Fellow Daoist Guo should understand that Mu did not use the Qinghun Pill to exchange for your Talisman inheritance, but you used your Talisman inheritance to exchange for your life-"

Guo Jisheng said, "What do you mean?"

"Fellow Daoist Guo, why do you ask knowingly? You are possessed by the soul evil spirit. If you don't have the Qinghun Pill to save your life within the next two years, you will definitely die. By then, can you still take the Talisman inheritance into the ground?"

Li An is very direct!

As soon as they met, he could see that Guo Jisheng had a serious soul evil. If he could not get the soul-clearing pill to relieve it, he would definitely die within five years.

So, he now has complete initiative!

Who else could Guo Jisheng find if he didn't look for him?

He also believed that Guo Jisheng would make the right choice.

After all, being alive is the foundation, and everything else is external.

Guo Jisheng's face was extremely ugly. Li An really hit his weak spot.

In fact, at the beginning, he was still planning to collect medicinal materials and find other familiar alchemists for help, but he didn't expect that his condition had changed dramatically in the past two years, and there was really no way...

Now, he was controlled by Li An!

He thought over and over again for a long time, and finally raised his eyes and said, "Okay, I agree--"

"As long as you help me successfully refine the Soul-Clearing Pill, I will give you the talisman inheritance."

Li An smiled, "Daoyou, Mu is not a child, please give me the inheritance first--"

Guo Jisheng frowned and said, "This is not in accordance with the rules, one hand pays the other hand... How about this, I will give you part of the inheritance first, as a deposit!"

After that, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Li An.

Li An glanced at it, it was just a second-level talisman inheritance.

"After the pill is made, my third-level talisman inheritance will also be given to you, how about it?"

Li An sneered in his heart, this old fox, he obviously has the fourth-level inheritance, but he is unwilling to take it out, and he wants to cheat Li An...

But Li An understands that forcing it now is useless.

"Brother Mu, I think Daoyou Guo is sincere--"

Lu Tong also persuaded.

Li An pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, that's it. Brother Guo, please give me the Qingling Grass. I will bring it to you after I succeed in refining it."

But Guo Jisheng shook his head: "No, Brother Mu, you refine the elixir and I will protect you."

I can't trust it!

After all, if Li An gets the Qingling Grass and the second-level talisman inheritance and turns around to escape from the Tiansha Mountains, who can he go to?

Must guard it!

Li An frowned slightly, "Okay, then go to my cave. There are ground veins in my cave to help, which can increase the probability of refining by 10% or 20%. "

"That's not right." Guo Jisheng shook his head.

Going to Li An's cave, who knows if it's a dragon's den or a tiger's lair, and there's no way back?

"Okay... In that case, we can only refine the elixir in Tiansha City. I know there are several spiritual veins in the city that can be used."

But Guo Jisheng pondered, in the city? That means more irrelevant people will be involved... It's not right either.

"Does Fellow Daoist Guo want me to find a random place? Without the help of spiritual veins, the chance of making a pill will be discounted..."

Guo Jisheng suddenly said: "Fellow Daoist Lu Tong, I remember there are several unowned land veins outside Tiansha City, right?"

Lu Tong was stunned for a moment: "Yes, Blue Moon Valley, Tongling Lake, Broken Dragon Mountain, but they all have very heavy evil spirits."

"Weak evil spirits can be avoided with the evil-blocking formation..."

Guo Jisheng smiled slightly and said: "What do you think, Fellow Daoist Mu?"

Mu Shi frowned and said: "The evil-blocking formation is a third-level formation, and it is consumed very quickly. In this case, is the cost too high?"

In fact, there are still many ways to temporarily curb evil spirits, and the evil-blocking formation is one of them.

It's just that generally no one will use it. A third-level formation requires dozens of high-quality spiritual stones. In a place like the Tiansha Mountains, it will take at most three or two years, and at least half a month. It's not worth it at all.

The time for refining pills is enough.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, don't worry about this. I will prepare the barrier array." Guo Jisheng asked, "Which vein do you think is more suitable?" Li An thought for a while: "I don't know much about these three veins... Blue Moon Valley, right?" Guo Jisheng smiled slightly, "Fellow Daoist Lu, I heard that Tongling Lake is the strongest vein, right?" Just don't choose the place Li An proposed. In this way, avoid all risks! It can be said that at the level of Zhendan, none of them are simple, they are all smart. Lu Tong also nodded with a smile. ... Guo Jisheng prepared the barrier array in Tiansha City, and then the three of them set off. On the way, he suddenly proposed to go to Duanlong Mountain, changing his mind again. Li An became more and more unhappy, with a gloomy face, but Guo Jisheng laughed in his heart. Not long after. Arrived at Duanlong Mountain. "Such a strong evil spirit..."

Li An frowned, and Lu Tong set up a barrier around the vein pointed by Li An. Li An was ready to start the fire to make the elixir.

The medicinal materials were quickly put into the third-grade elixir furnace. Li An was skilled and his movements were smooth and beautiful.

He had indeed studied the Soul-Clearing Pill for a long time.

It can be said that he had invested too much for this time.

Not far away, Lu Tong and Guo Jisheng were guarding. Guo Jisheng's eyes showed a hint of coldness and glanced at Lu Tong.

Lu Tong nodded imperceptibly.

...

Three days later.

Li An was sweating profusely and looked exhausted.

"The elixir is done--"

He let out a long cry.

Immediately, Guo Jisheng and Lu Tong were overjoyed and came over.

"Fellow Daoist Guo, please--"

Li An spoke to Guo Jisheng. Guo Jisheng was extremely excited. He stepped forward and opened the furnace cover. A rich fragrance spread out immediately. It was the third-grade soul-clearing pill, a total of four pills.

"It's done--"

He was ecstatic, and then suddenly took all four pills and shouted: "Lu Tong, do it--"

However, he just turned around and saw Lu Tong standing there, motionless.

He didn't know when there was a crossbow arrow in his chest--

Plop!

Lu Tong fell directly to the ground and died.

"What?!"

Guo Jisheng's face changed drastically. He knew that Li An had taken action.

And he was able to kill Lu Tong, a mid-stage True Dan cultivator, silently?

"You fucking..."

He was immediately terrified and turned around to run away, but at this moment, a violent formation wave suddenly came from the surroundings.

"How could there be a formation?"

He was shocked on the spot.

Mu Shi actually made arrangements here in advance?

Impossible, didn't he just choose this place? And he made some temporary adjustments, but he still fell into Li An's trap?

"You plotted against me, you dare to plot against me--"

He suddenly took out a fourth-level forbidden-breaking talisman and detonated it directly. The third-level formation set by Li An was directly torn apart, and he was about to escape.

But there were already dozens of third-level talismans exploding in front of him.

"How dare you!"

Guo Jisheng was furious and took out another fourth-level talisman to activate. A light shield suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the attack of dozens of talismans alive.

Fourth-level amulet!

But, just as this fourth-level amulet was burned, dozens of talismans were also bombarded.

At the same time, a clear bird cry sounded instantly, and a giant green bird circled and came, grabbing Guo Jisheng with its claws like knives.

Guo Jisheng hurriedly lit another fourth-level talisman, which turned into a long sword and slashed at the divine bird. The Green Flame Divine Bird sprayed out a flame, directly blocking the long sword drawn by the talisman, but also retreated several hundred meters.

"A golden elixir-level spiritual beast?"

Guo Jisheng was shocked.

At this moment, an even more terrifying aura behind him had been released. Li An took a step closer and slashed out with a three-yuan slash.

The surging spiritual power was unstoppable. Guo Jisheng, who was in the late stage of the true elixir, tried his best to stop it, but was directly blown away!

"Middle stage of the golden elixir?!"

Guo Jisheng spit out a trace of blood from his mouth, and his eyes were extremely shocked.

This Mu Shi was actually a cultivator in the middle stage of the golden elixir, and his spiritual pet was also!

At this moment, he was really scared.

He originally planned to kill Li An together with Lu Tong after getting the Qinghun Pill.

Besides, they were very confident that he was in the late Zhendan stage and Lu Tong was in the middle Zhendan stage, so they would definitely win.

If he knew that they were not facing a middle Zhendan alchemist, but two middle Jindan alchemists...

He would never dare to make any plans!

Two middle Jindan alchemists, even if two late Zhendan alchemists in their prime came, they might not be able to get any benefits.

What's more, he was also possessed by the soul evil spirit, and his strength could not be fully exerted.

At the critical moment, he turned around without hesitation and sacrificed another talisman, turning into a residual image and leaving——

Fourth-level Divine Travel Talisman!

This was also the most precious one in his hand, and he would not use it easily until the last moment.

It was also because Li An and the Divine Bird showed their strength that he was completely desperate and determined to escape.

But, the second level of the third-level formation... also broke out at this moment!

"There's more?!"

Guo Jisheng was a little stunned. Damn, who is this person?

As a Jindan master, it's ok to hide his cultivation, but even the bird follows him to hide. That's not enough. To ambush him, a real Dan with a disease, he has to set up two super-strong third-level magic arrays?

Besides, he chose this place randomly. Could it be that this guy has arranged three locations?

Sinister, old sinister!

He couldn't leave. He turned back and gritted his teeth and tried his best to sacrifice two third-level magic weapons to attack and kill Li An, but Li An came forward. With a layer of black gold armor on his body, he actually took the third-level magic weapon and punched him-

Guo Jisheng was blown away!

The Blue Flame Divine Bird in the air had already swooped down, and its claws directly pierced into Guo Jisheng's shoulders, grabbing him and throwing him to the ground.

Guo Jisheng still wanted to resist, but he felt his body stiff and unable to move, and his whole body was even more powerless. He looked down and saw that two small swords were already stuck in his body...

All of them were shady tricks...

"You...shameless!"

He couldn't help but curse.

In fact, even if Li An went head-on, he would not be able to defeat him at all...

But this guy Li An used talismans, formations, poisons, spirit pets... everything.

Really, too vicious!

Li An had already approached and sighed, "People have no intention of harming tigers, but tigers have the intention of hurting people's hearts. Daoist friend, I'm sorry that you want to kill me."

Hearing this, Guo Jisheng wanted to curse, this is the first time he met Li An, but the other party has arranged the formation and everything. Is this called harmless tiger intention?

He has understood that this bastard has been luring him since he sold the second-grade top-grade soul-clearing pill to Lu Tong several years ago...

The target must be the fourth-level talisman inheritance on him, because he can see that Li An is a third-level talisman master!

"You have planned to kill me for so many years, you fucking..."

He wanted to curse, but there was no chance. Li An had caught him and started to use magic!

Li An did not use the fourth-level crossbow to kill Guo Jisheng directly, just to capture him alive.

Only by capturing him alive can he use magic to search his memory and get what Li An wants.

...
