Chapter 186 Collecting Spirit Stones
"Dare to ask senior, why are we guilty?"
"Yes, senior! We were ordered by the city lord to investigate the traces of the beast horde, and almost died in the mouth of Demonic Beasts. Now that the beast horde has collapsed, I only rushed back after receiving the news. How could I be charged with crimes?"
The few people didn't realize where the problem was, and hurriedly asked the Nascent Soul cultivator who was asking the crime with pale faces.
Nascent Soul asked the cultivator for the crime, no matter what the crime was, they couldn't afford it.
Moreover, no matter how hard they thought about it, they couldn't figure out what mistake they made!
"Hmph, do you still want to quibble?"
The Nascent Soul cultivator said coldly: "In order to survive, you actually fabricate lies so that the cultivators in the city can take it lightly, and even trick us out of the city, you really deserve death!"
"If you haven't recruited from the truth, do you want me to search for the soul and refine the soul myself?"
Hearing the word search for the soul and refine the soul, several people suddenly became excited, and only felt a chill hit their foreheads.
The so-called Soul Search and Soul Refining is a method used just now by cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, the purpose is to obtain the other party's memory.
This method is extremely cruel.
But whoever is searched for soul...
The light person's mind and soul are damaged, become a fool, and even lose their original memory.
Those who are more serious will die suddenly on the spot.
It's chilling to think about!
But they are really wronged!
In order to survive, they made up lies to make the cultivators in the city take their guard lightly, and even tricked several Nascent Soul cultivators out of the city. This is pure nonsense!
"Senior, why did we ever have such evil thoughts? Although you are a Nascent Soul senior, you can't wantonly wrong us!"
"Please ask the senior to check clearly, we have been wronged!"
"Humph!"
The Nascent Soul cultivator snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more, because he didn't see anything abnormal from the performance of these people.
In other words, the news they sent back is very likely to be true.
But his move made several people mistakenly believe that he had already found several people guilty.
As a result, several people suddenly panicked!
He hurriedly looked at the City Lord of Huangshan City, and knelt down at once: "Master City Lord, we are really wronged, you have to make the decision for us!"
"My lord, the few of us have worked together under your command for decades, and we have always been conscientious. We have never slackened in the slightest. You know us best, and please make the decision for us and return our innocence!"
"All right!"
The lord of Huangshan City waved his hand to prevent the few people from continuing to cry, then stared at the few people and asked, "Since you said you were wronged, why did you spread the false news back to the city?"
"False news?"
Several people were taken aback when they heard the words, when did they spread false news?
But The next moment, they seemed to think of something.
After looking at each other, they finally realized where the problem was.
One of them glanced at the City Lord of Huangshan City, and then at a few Nascent Soul cultivators next to him, and tentatively asked: "Master City Lord, seniors, do you think that the news we sent back earlier is fake?"
The lord of Huangshan City frowned and asked, "Isn't it?"
The man smiled wryly when he heard the words: "My lord, seniors, the invasion of the beast tide is a major event related to the survival of the human race. Even if we are given the courage, we will not dare to cheat!"
The City Lord of Huangshan City was moved, and quickly asked: "So, the news you sent back is true?"
Through the observation just now, he has actually ruled out the possibility of a few people taking refuge in the monster clan, but regarding the beast tide and the safety of Huangshan City, he couldn't help but be careless.
"of course it's true!"
Knowing what the problem was, several people felt relieved, and at the same time each of them smiled wryly in their hearts. From the beginning to the end, this matter was just a misunderstanding!
Immediately, several people vividly described the arrival of the beast horde, and then described in detail to several Nascent Soul cultivators the whole process until the beast horde collapsed.
After hearing this, the city lord of Huangshan City didn't care about the reaction of several Nascent Soul stage cultivators. After pondering for a while, he asked, "Can you see this person's true face?"
"Um!"
Several people nodded, Dang even took the initiative to copy Li Er's portrait with Magic power.
Looking at this strange face, the lord of Huangshan City frowned, but after recalling the cultivators from the Nascent Soul late stage and above in Tianling City, he found that he had never seen this person before.
"It's him!"
However, the exclamations of several other Nascent Soul stagers immediately attracted the attention of the city lord of Huangshan City.
I asked
Afterwards, several Nascent Soul stage cultivators chattered and told the Huangshan City Lord about Li Er's deeds.
Huang Shancheng said thoughtfully: "In this way, what they said is not false, the beast horde has indeed been defeated?"
"It should be so!"
Several Nascent Soul stage cultivators nodded. With the precedent of Wuyun City, it is reasonable for this person to appear in Huangshan City.
Also, if it's fake...
How did these few spies know the appearance of this Nascent Soul late stage cultivator?
Although several Nascent Soul stage cultivators said with certainty that the beast horde had been defeated, the Lord of Huangshan City was still a little worried, so he proposed to investigate.
But several Nascent Soul stage cultivators have ghosts in their hearts, worried that they will be targeted by Li Er, so they shirk each other, and no one is willing to go!
As a last resort, the owner of Huangshan City could only make a trip in person.
Not long after, the lord of Huangshan City returned and brought news of the collapse of the beast horde.
The city instantly fell into jubilation.
The formation that enveloped Huangshan City was closed after the order of the city lord of Huangshan City.
"It's really ink! It's been a long time since the beast tide collapsed, and the formation is only now removed."
Li Er, who was hiding outside the city, cursed for a while, then turned into a ghost and sneaked into the city without alarming anyone.
He had already arrived outside Huangshan City, but the protective array had been open all the time.
And he didn't have the access token for entering and exiting the formation, so if he forced his way in, it would definitely cause some commotion.
He didn't want to attract attention, and he thought that he wouldn't be able to wait long, so he kept waiting outside the city.
However, the degree of caution of the Huangshan city lord was a bit beyond his expectations, and it took so long to delay.
Before the beast horde broke out, he had already arrived in Huangshan City, and Lin Heng was placed in an inn in the city by him.
But Li Er was busy dealing with the corpses of Demonic Beasts, and then proceeded to upgrade the Cultivation Base, so after entering the city, he did not go to meet Lin Heng, but went straight to the street where the shops in the city were located.
The news of the collapse of the beast horde quickly spread in the city. The shops that were temporarily closed, just reopened for business, ushered in a strange cultivator who handled the corpses of Demonic Beasts.
Now it is a special period, and almost all the shops in small cities like Huangshan City have transferred most of their funds and rare treasures to their headquarters in the main city.
The items left for sale, and the Spirit Stones used for turnover are extremely limited.
The corpses of Demonic Beasts harvested by Li Er are worth nearly two million Spirit Stones.
For now.
It is impossible for any shop in the city to eat alone.
Not long ago, Li Er was disposing of the corpses of Demonic Beasts accumulated on his body in the wasteland city, and almost ran over a dozen shops in the city.
With previous experience.
In Huangshan City, every time Li Er went to a store, he only took out the corpses of Demonic Beasts worth hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones to trade.
In the end, six shops ran in succession.
He managed to exchange all the Demonic Beast corpses he had just harvested for Spirit Stones.
"Enough is finally enough of the Spirit Stones!"
"Next... as long as you find a place where there are no people, you can pass the simulation and break through to the stage of transformation!"
When Li Er broke through the big Realm, it was not like breaking through the small Realm, which can be easily completed in just one or two breaths!
Breakthrough Big Realm is a process of transformation and sublimation.
Li Er has a simulation system to help him, unlike other cultivators that take a long time to complete breakthrough.
Judging from his previous breakthrough experience, the time he needs from Nascent Soul breakthrough to God Transformation needs at least a dozen breaths or even longer.
During this period, the Magic power in his body was out of control at all, which meant that he couldn't touch people during the breakthrough process.
Therefore, he must find a place where no one is there to prevent accidents.
Of course, during the process of his breakthrough, his breath will be released on his own.
Even Nascent Soul early and middle stage cultivators might not be able to withstand the aura of a cultivator in the stage of transformation, and ordinary cultivators dare not even approach it.
So, he doesn't need to be too careful.
But because of this, he has to avoid other cultivators.
Just like now, if he chooses to breakthrough in Huangshan City, when the breath disperses, how many innocent cultivators will be affected!
Having made up his mind, Li Er didn't delay any longer, and immediately left Huangshan City, preparing to breakthrough Cultivation Base in an uninhabited area outside the city.
As for Lin Heng in the inn, he wasn't worried at all, anyway, the beast horde had already disintegrated, and he would return smoothly in a short time.
...
Li Er wholeheartedly wanted to improve the Cultivation Base, but did not
You know what a ruckus he's made with the Demonic Beasts corpses he's selling in town!
These Demonic Beasts corpses almost all exude residual heat, and there are many Demonic Beasts in the transformation period.
During the transaction, each store received Li Er's cultivator, but because of Li Er's unfathomable Cultivation Base, he dared not ask rashly.
But as Li Er left, they vaguely realized that this matter was no small matter, and after careful consideration, they reported the matter to the City Lord's Mansion.
After Huangshan City City Lord received the news reported by the shops, he immediately thought of the Nascent Soul late stage cultivator who defeated the beast tide.
Such a big man was actually in Huangshan City, which made him ecstatic, and even thought of going to visit him.
However, thinking of Li Er's actions at the auction in Tianling City, he couldn't help retreating again.
Such a person is not easy to get along with!
It is unwise to rush to contact.
After thinking about it, the lord of Huangshan City looked at several Nascent Souls and asked: "Fellow daoists, is this person really as cruel and ruthless as you said?"
But after asking this question, the city lord of Huangshan City was stunned, because the panic on the faces of several Nascent Soul cultivators already explained everything.
Several cultivators of the Nascent Soul period were not stupid, and they also thought of Li Er after hearing the information reported by various shops.
At this moment, they are sitting on pins and needles.
This person is actually in the city, what if they are targeted?
The faces of several Nascent Soul stage cultivators twitched as soon as they heard the inquiry from the lord of Huangshan City.
It is not an exaggeration to describe the cultivator of the Nascent Soul period as a fish, not only cruel, but also vicious.
But at the moment, they don't want to argue about anything.
With their Cultivation Base, there is no way to fight back against this person.
At the auction last time, if City Lord Geng hadn't stopped them, most of them would have become dead fish on that person's hook.
But in Huangshan City, if this person puts his ideas on their heads, one can imagine what will happen to them.
Thinking of this, a few people couldn't sit still!
But they were ordered to help defend Huangshan City. If they left without authorization and the court held them accountable, their fate would also be miserable.
For a while, several Nascent Soul cultivators were caught in a dilemma.
The Lord of Huangshan City saw what everyone was thinking, and quickly comforted him: "Fellow daoists, this person may not be as sinister as you imagined, if he really had evil thoughts, he might have come to the door already, why would he be late?" Now?"
"This……"
Hearing this, several Nascent Soul members couldn't help being stunned for a moment, it seemed that this was the truth.
With the strength of the opponent, it is completely effortless to solve them.
Since the other party has not come to the door for a long time, it is obvious that they have no idea about them.
So there is really no need to worry too much.
Thinking of this, several people felt a little relieved.
However, as long as this person is still in Huangshan City for a day, they can't be completely relieved, after all, they also said that they can't figure out this person's mind.
What if people treat them as meat that can be eaten at any time?
"The fellow daoist is right. I really don't need to worry too much, but I may have to Closed Door Training for a while. If there is no major event during the period, I won't leave the customs easily. I hope the fellow daoist will forgive me! But if the beast tide strikes again , the fellow daoist will be notified!"
A Nascent Soul stage cultivator hurriedly stood up, cupped hands and said to the lord of Huangshan City.
The lord of Huangshan City twitched his mouth and said, "Uh, that's good..."
But as soon as he finished speaking, several other Nascent Soul cultivators also got up one after another.
"Fellow daoist, I may have to do Closed Door Training for a while, please forgive me fellow daoist!"
"Me too! But fellow daoist, don't worry, once the beast tide strikes, I will definitely come out to help!"
"..."
"Okay, fellow daoists, do as you please!"
The owner of Huangshan City was full of slander, but what could he say!
If you want Closed Door Training, just Closed Door Training. Anyway, they can't get involved in the usual affairs of the city.
And he had to deal with various affairs in the city, and he had to take time to entertain a few people, so he was very busy, and now he just could relax a little bit.
"Fellow daoist farewell..."
After several Nascent Soul stage cultivators left one after another, the City Lord of Huangshan City began to think about Li Er again.
With the Nascent Soul late stage big cultivator in charge, Huangshan City can certainly be as steady as Mount Tai.
But this person's behavior is so extreme, it is really difficult to get along with, and he may just pass through Huangshan City, and may not stay here for a long time.
After understanding this point, the city lord of Huangshan City also completely gave up the idea of investigating Li Er's whereabouts and then visiting him.
