Chapter 278
Xiling Yuanzhou, in a mountain range.
Li An fell from the void, his body covered with wounds!
The more than 500 sixth-level talismans he cast were not only to attack Jun Yelin, but more importantly to create an opportunity for himself to escape.
He sneaked away from the exploding talisman fire!
At that time, Shangguan Shengxian and the Great Master were fighting fiercely, and the surrounding magic masters were breaking the formation. Li An hid in the terrifying explosion shock wave and was directly blown away tens of thousands of miles away. Then he immediately hid himself with the Life-Nourishing Immortal Casting Technique to avoid Shangguan Shengxian's spiritual detection.
When the other party left, he immediately fled and came here.
He hid directly in a silt pool and merged with the surrounding silt.
He swallowed the recovery pills one by one, and nourished his body together with his life seed breath - he could indeed be said to be seriously injured!
Leaving the talisman fire of more than 500 sixth-level talismans was like walking through hell. In order not to be discovered, Li An could not activate any protective gear for protection, and even spiritual power could not be used. He had to rely on his physical body to resist. Only in this way could he use the life-nourishing immortal technique to conceal the breath of his own existence.
That was why he simply treated himself as a dead object without life and rushed out with the flames, so he was not discovered.
If it were someone else, even a powerful person would not dare to be so crazy.
Li An's body was charred, and large pieces of skin and flesh fell off.
If he had not been baptized by the thunder and had confidence in his body, Li An would not be so reckless.
Even so, he stayed here for five or six years before he recovered his vitality and jumped out of the mud.
He beat two mating crocodiles and roasted them to eat, and Li An breathed a sigh of relief.
He was in a complicated mood. When he was weak, Shangguan Shengxian forced him to hide in the stinking mud for more than 20 years. Now he was at least a refining being, and he could suppress a party at will, but he was still in such a mess.
One day, Shangguan Shengxian must pay the price with blood!
After eating the crocodile meat, he washed up casually by the pond, mainly to feel the feeling of being alive, and then got up and left.
He first found a city and asked around.
In that battle, Shangguan Shengxian and the great master both appeared, and the impact was very wide. Both sides crossed several realms from the Emperor Yuan Realm until a supreme of the Dao Sect appeared, and Shangguan Shengxian hid.
A great man of the Demon Sect was killed by the supreme of the Dao Sect, which shocked the world.
"I don't know if Jun Yelin is dead..."
Li An murmured, but he didn't need to worry about his life or death for the time being.
If he didn't die, he would be seriously injured. Moreover, the Demon Emperor's origin, which was extremely important to him, was obtained by Li An...
Back then, he took Li An's demon seed. Now Li An took his Demon Emperor's origin, which was considered to be a return of interest!
Li An left immediately. He was not going to absorb the Demon Emperor's origin here. The aura contained in this thing was too strong and vast. Once absorbed, Li An might be promoted to a small realm directly.
He didn't want outsiders to pay attention to him.
He set off directly and went to Taiqing Realm.
After Li An arrived at Taiqing Realm, he realized that in just a few years, the world had changed drastically. Taiqing Realm was basically covered by the fairy wind of the South China Sea, and the former boundary of Xuanling Daohe no longer existed.
Most of the cultivators moved to the rear, and no one was willing to stay here for a long time.
Moonlight City, a huge city with a population of over 10 billion, is now empty.
Li An explored and found that these places had been rebuilt by Dao Zong and other major forces. They could not be seen from the outside, but there was something special inside. Li An did not approach them and went to Cang Xuan Ridge.
In the past, there were many cultivators who explored opportunities on Cang Xuan Ridge, but now there were few people. Li An was a little worried that the Demon Cult would completely occupy this place and develop towards the south.
After all, if the Demon Cult infiltrates, it might run into people from Yingyuan Island.
But after Li An's in-depth exploration, he soon felt relieved.
Nowadays, the protection of major forces such as Dao Zong and Brahma Sect in Cang Xuan Ridge is more strict than before!
Many mountains and places of good fortune have been laid out with amazing formations.
"Taiqing Realm... I'm afraid it has been turned into a battlefield by Dao Zong!"
Li An murmured.
Li An lurked and explored on Cang Xuan Ridge for a long time, but he could not find a place to cross. The formation was so strict that even he could only frown.
Li An had no choice but to explore along the Cangxuan Ridge.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye. When Li An reached the border between Taiqing Realm and Yuandao Realm, he finally found a slightly weak formation.
Li An was a little excited on the spot. Damn... Dao Zong was really cruel.
The formations were connected, just like the Great Wall, completely blocking the way.
The forest in front of him was the border between the two sides. The Yuandao Realm was mainly responsible for the "Sun and Moon Sect", so the formations were a little weak, otherwise Li An really couldn't get through.
He studied here for more than half a year, and finally, on a thunderstorm night, Li An touched the way.
Since this place was far away from Cangxuan Ridge, it took him more than a month after crossing to reach the southern part of Taiqing Realm, not far from Nanqing City.
"The strange aura became more and more intense, and the spiritual energy basically disappeared..."
The situation in this world became more and more serious.
But in a sense, it was more suitable for magic cultivators like Li An.
He directly found a place with strong strange aura, opened up a cave, set up a formation, and then began to absorb the Demon Emperor's origin.
The Demon Emperor's origin was taken out and placed in front of him. The magic power started to work. The demon seed was like a greedy baby, smelling mother's milk and swallowing it madly.
Li An's aura was changing rapidly and constantly improving!
...
In the blink of an eye, another two years passed.
Li An finally broke through the barrier, and his cultivation level really went a step further, entering the middle stage of refining the void!
The demon seed had some wonderful changes, and Li An felt that the operation of the magic power was more satisfactory.
The power of spells such as the Immortal Heavenly Demon Armor was strengthened!
Moreover, after absorbing the Demon Emperor's origin, he really felt that he was more sensitive to the strange aura around him, and he was like a fish in water in the strange aura.
It seems that the Heavenly Demon Origin can help demon cultivators absorb the traces of strange aura!
Opening his eyes, Li An was quite satisfied, and then he took out the immortal coffin again. The space in the immortal coffin was controlled by him at will. The corpse of the alien spirit was detained in an independent space by him, which did not affect his formation talismans, spiritual veins and the Blue Flame Divine Bird.
Li An hesitated for a moment, and did not release the corpse of the alien spirit, but took the initiative to jump into the immortal coffin.
This thing is too weird, and no one knows what will happen if it is released.
The immortal coffin was opened, and entering it was like falling into another small world. For thousands of miles, because of the spiritual vein that Li An had transplanted before, there were birds singing and flowers blooming, claiming to be a good fortune, and the land was covered with green trees and even spiritual medicines.
The Blue Flame Divine Bird flew over and rubbed against him intimately.
With sufficient resource supply, the Blue Flame Divine Bird grew very fast. Now it has reached the fourth level and is about to impact the fifth level.
"Xu Jing pays homage to the senior!"
A woman also came forward. It was Xu Jing, the spiritual medium in the Seven Yin Sect. She was taken in by Li An and was extremely respectful at this moment.
Li An glanced at her. This girl was pretty and quiet. Anyway, in this coffin, everything was controlled by Li An, so he said: "You fell into the hands of the demon, and now I have saved you. You can practice here and take care of the spiritual herbs here for me." Xu Jing thanked him profusely, of course. Then Li An went to the end of the earth. The natural energy here was chaotic, isolating the corpse of the alien spirit from other places. Li An took a step out and crossed the natural energy, and saw a withered corpse floating in the air. "What a strong weird breath!" Li An was a little surprised. The weird breath emanating from this corpse was truly pure and frightening. Li An's life-nourishing immortal art started to work inexplicably, protecting his mind, and the magic skills followed, and the magic energy protected his body. "Even if a cultivator at the Refining Void level inhales a trace of this strange substance, it will probably destroy his cultivation..."
Li An felt the strange substance and was secretly surprised.
Ying Huaihai said that the strange aura traces would only favor strange creatures. Unless there was a breath of life from strange creatures, it would be impossible to absorb the strange aura traces.
The corpse of the strange spirit was already in front of him. Li An hesitated for a moment and immediately activated his magic skills to try to actively refine it!
His Immortal Heavenly Demon Art was fully activated, and the demon seed was also erupting. Strands of gray matter suddenly entered his body. At this moment, his demon seed actually began to sprout and grow!
This surprised Li An.
The demon seed is formed after practicing the magic skill successfully. In essence, it is just something similar to the source and the crystal of the Great Dao. It should not have vitality.
Now, it grows because of the gray matter.
The demon seed sprouted, took root, and the rhizome also fell on his Dantian, standing side by side with the life seed.
As the strange substance entered his body, Li An felt that his flesh, blood, soul, etc. all seemed to tremble. That kind of breath could distort his life form!
But the life seed moved with it, and those strange substances no longer affected Li An's life. The strange breath converged on the demon seed.
"No, the root of this demon seed is rooted in the root of the life seed!"
Li An observed carefully and immediately found something strange.
"The demon seed is nourished by the breath of the life seed and regrown, so the life seed is the root, and the demon seed is just its attachment!"
"The strange breath is also controlled by the life seed!"
Li An was overjoyed.
He no longer worried, and immediately absorbed the life energy of the corpse crazily.
His demon seed grew rapidly, and soon, it grew to the size of a palm, and sprouted the first gray leaf...
Time flies.
Seven months later.
Li An sat here quietly, feeling the changes in Dantian. The gray demon seed tree grew six leaves, much shorter than the green life seed tree, but it bred a lot of strange substances.
"Can I also use strange power?"
Li An tried to activate the demon seed tree in his body, and a ball of gray mist suddenly appeared in his palm. He used magic to drive it, and the gray mist instantly formed a layer of gray armor on his body!
Indestructible Heavenly Demon Armor!
And now... maybe it is more appropriate to say that it is an immortal strange armor.
"From now on, can I be considered a strange creature?"
Li An pondered this question!
He moved the Life-raising Immortal Art, the breath of the life seed converged, and then released the gray breath of the demon seed tree. In an instant, Li An's flesh and blood became gray, his skin seemed to have turned into stone skin, and there was some gray mist in his eyes.
The transformation of life form!
Moreover, he did not change in essence. It was not that he was affected by strange substances, but that he controlled strange substances.
He can change back at any time. He understood in his heart that perhaps this was what Master Zi Xianzi said, the root hidden in the weirdness!
"From now on, I can even truly practice with the help of the weird aura..."
The weird aura was very powerful, and Li An was confident that he could easily destroy any master in the realm of refining emptiness.
As for the realm of unity, he remained vigilant and awed.
"Almost."
The aura of this corpse of the alien spirit was almost swallowed up by him, and it really became a dry corpse, almost breaking at the touch.
Li An took a finger bone from the corpse, which he had left behind on purpose and did not absorb.
After all, he still had to go see Ying Huaihai.
He left the immortal coffin and reappeared in the cave where he was in seclusion.
After putting away the immortal coffin, he went to find Ying Meng'er first. He arrived in just a few hours. He did not rush in, but checked the formation he had set up to see if anyone was approaching or coming out.
There was nothing unusual, so he went in and said loudly: "Gu Changqing is visiting--"
In the cave, Ying Meng'er hurried out and greeted him respectfully, saying: "Senior Gu is here, Meng'er was unable to greet you from afar, please forgive me!"
After many years of separation, she is not much different from before, still tall and graceful, but her aura has changed.
Now she can be said to be a qualified magic cultivator!
She has made rapid progress, she has already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and will soon be able to impact the Spiritualization stage.
In fact, this is because the magic skill that Li An gave her is problematic, not the complete Immortal Heavenly Demon Skill, otherwise she would practice faster.
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Li An was amiable and answered many of her questions about cultivation, like a senior who had achieved enlightenment.
"Senior... I have an unwelcome request."
Ying Meng'er bit her lower lip and suddenly knelt in front of Li An, saying: "I want to be your disciple! Please help me!"
For so many years, she has been thinking about how to take back Yingyuan Island?
Yingyuan Island has been occupied by a powerful enemy. Her father has been killed and her aunt has been imprisoned. Her life and death are unknown. She has no chance on her own.
Although Li An said that he would cooperate with her, where would she get the capital?
Only with the help of Li An, a great cultivator of Lianxu, can she take revenge... After thinking about it, this is her only way.
Apprenticeship.
Li An pondered for a moment and said: "Miss Ying, please stand up."
"You are of noble status and the heir of Yingyuan Island. If I want to take you as my disciple, I must ask your parents for their opinions. It will not be too late to talk about this matter after rescuing your loved ones in the future."
Ying Meng'er, a young girl, intends to deceive Li An, an old fox?
Of course he will not agree. "Don't worry, I, Gu Changqing, will definitely protect you."
"Miss, practice well. I will go to find out the news on the South China Sea and try to rescue your parents as soon as possible."
Li An left.
Ying Meng'er looked at the direction where Li An left, but sighed and said, "Agui, when can I take revenge..."
...
Li An went to see Ying Meng'er mainly to take a hair from her.
Before Ying Huaihai showed his sincerity, Li An would definitely not hand Ying Meng'er over. Taking a hair from her as a token was enough.
Li An went to the surroundings of Nanqing City and checked it once, but did not stay in Nanqing City to wait. Instead, after finding the path, he landed in "Zifeng City".
Zifeng City is closer to the South China Sea than Nanqing City. If Ying Huaihai and others come, they will definitely pass through here.
Li An can take the initiative to find them.
After all, it is hard to say whether these people on the South China Sea are good or evil, and we must guard against them. If you really wait foolishly in Nanqing City, what if they don't keep their promises and kill you?
As the fifty-year deadline was approaching, he quietly waited here and practiced at the same time.
…
Time was like water. In the wind from the South China Sea, the strange aura became more and more intense, and occasionally mixed with a large amount of immortal materials, but these immortal materials were torn by the strange wind and it was difficult for them to pass through Cangxuan Ridge and reach the human world behind.
Li An occasionally took action to collect some. In total, he got more in these years than when he robbed the heroes in the strange secret realm of Dao Sect.
Li An would never touch the immortal materials. They were useless to him, but these things were very precious to the cultivators in the spiritual world.
It has its own uses for exchanging for magic weapon materials.
Finally, the fifty-year deadline was approaching, and in two years,
It was the day he had agreed to meet with Ying Huaihai and others.
"Hmm?"
On this day, Li An discovered several figures flying over. They were hiding in the strange wind blowing from the South China Sea, which was really difficult to detect, but Li An had now cultivated strangeness, so he could see through them at a glance.
"Ying Huaihai!"
Li An had already recognized him.
He kept his face calm and followed quietly.
There were a total of six refining masters coming!
The other five did not show up. Ying Huaihai went forward first and called a few times outside Nanqing City. No one responded, so he went in to check one by one, and then led the other five refining masters in.
They set up many mechanisms and restrictions inside and outside the city, hiding very cleverly.
The five refining masters hid nearby.
The skills of these people to conceal their breath were very clever. Although they were not as good as the life-nourishing immortal casting skills, they were enough to prevent ordinary refining masters from seeing them.
Li An's heart went cold.
If you are sincere about cooperation, why do you have to do this?
He thought about it and did not take action directly.
Instead, he waited for another two years.
The fifty-year period has expired.
Li An pretended to come from a distance, looking dusty, and walked outside the city, saying loudly: "Qin Hu is here to visit an old friend!"
In Nanqing City, an old voice suddenly sounded: "Brother Qin Hu, you are finally here!"
Ying Huaihai!
"Please come into the city to see me--"
Li An smiled and said: "Brother Ying, please come out of the city to meet me."
He pretended to be wary. After all, if he went in directly, it would be too stupid and would arouse vigilance.
Ying Huaihai cursed inwardly that he was like a ghost, and then walked out of the city. The two greeted each other, and Ying Huaihai said: "Brother Qin, how is it? Has the matter we agreed to meet fifty years ago been resolved?"
Li An said: "We came here for this matter. We have brought everything. I wonder if your Qi Dao trace is ready?"
Ying Huaihai was moved: "Fellow Daoist Qin means that you have even found the corpse of the alien spirit?"
Li An smiled and took out a jade box directly, which contained a finger bone, and threw it to Ying Huaihai.
Ying Huaihai did not dare to take it in his hand, but just let the jade box hover three feet in front of him, took a look, and could not help but be shocked.
"Where is Ying Meng'er? Where is she?"
Ying Huaihai asked. Li An shot out another object, which was a strand of Ying Meng'er's hair. Li An said, "Both things are here. In addition, we have prepared all the magic skills you need--"
"Good, good, good!"
Ying Huaihai suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Daoyou, Daohen is here--"
He took a step closer and handed out a black box. Li An was unprepared and was about to take it. Suddenly, he shouted, "How dare you lie to me!"
Ying Huaihai's face changed and he shouted, "Attack!"
In an instant, a ban appeared on the ground outside the city, and several masters in the realm of refining emptiness rushed out.
"What a courage!"
Li An was furious. He used his magic skills to fight with everyone. He tried his best, but he was outnumbered and vomited blood. Finally, he struggled to tear a hole and escaped-
"Huai Bing, Huai Chao, Huai Yi, the three of you go to kill him. He is already seriously injured. Don't let him run away! After catching him, search his soul directly and lock the location of the corpse of the alien spirit!"
Ying Huaihai spoke, and then called the two people next to him, saying: "You two, follow me to deduce where Ying Meng'er is. If I am not wrong, Ying Meng'er is very likely to be placed with the corpse of the alien spirit!"
Move from both places together.
As a powerful person in the refining void, with Ying Meng'er's hair... it is not difficult to find her.
Soon after.
"Found it!"
Ying Huaihai's eyes flashed with a grim smile, and he said: "From now on, there will be no more trouble!"
The three of them acted immediately.
And at this moment
"Qin Hu, don't run away - you can't leave!" Ying Huaichao shouted and chased Li An. Li An's life was hanging by a thread. In their opinion, he could be killed at any time. Li An stopped with difficulty, turned his head and looked, his eyes showing despair. The three people approached quickly and grabbed Li An. But the despair on Li An's face suddenly changed, turning into a kind of calmness, a kind of mockery that seemed to be there and not there. His figure suddenly moved. "Be careful!" "No!" Several people shouted, but before they finished speaking, Ying Huaichao, who was the most forward, had his body exploded directly - Ying Huaiyi and Ying Huaibing's pupils flashed a deep fear. And Li An had already rushed out of Ying Huaichao's blood mist, with terrifying spiritual power and unimaginable speed, and killed them directly in front of them - After a few breaths. "Really too weak." Li An gave an evaluation. Among these three people, one is in the middle stage of the Refining Void and two are in the late stage of the Refining Void, but their real combat power is far inferior to that of Li An.
Their bodies were collected by Li An, and then Li An quickly rushed to Ying Meng'er's hiding place.
Now, the remaining people should have reached Ying Meng'er...
...
"Ying Meng'er, you can't escape, get out!"
Outside the cave, Ying Huaihai led two Refining Voids and attacked frantically.
Inside the cave, Ying Meng'er was terrified and pale.
If it weren't for the formation left by Li An to protect them, they would definitely have died.
However, her strength was too weak to host the formation, and the passive defense of the formation was not a long-term solution and would soon be broken.
Under the repeated attacks of the three Refining Voids, as expected, a hole had appeared in the formation, and it was in danger!
"Ying Meng'er, today, I will send you to reunite with your parents--"
Ying Huaihai laughed and grabbed Ying Meng'er with his big hand.
Beside Ying Meng'er, the fifth-level old turtle rushed forward desperately, but it couldn't stop him at all. It was beaten so hard that its shell was almost cracked. It fell to the ground and vomited blood. Ying Meng'er's eyes were filled with despair.
"Who dares to disturb me here?!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and broke Ying Huaihai's big hand in a snap of his fingers. This person landed gracefully and said, "I, Gu Changqing, once said that I must protect Miss Meng'er. No matter who you are, either get out or die--"
Li An is here!
He has switched to Gu Changqing's identity!
...
