Chapter 649

When Shi Chuankong and Hu San heard Han Li's words, they looked at each other, but no one spoke.

"In that case, I won't force it.

The mountains are high and the rivers are long. When we meet again in the future, I will repay the kindness of Fellow Daoist. "Seeing this, Senior Immortal Hot Flame knew that Han Li had made up his mind, so he said.

"Wild Crane Valley is fated, there is no need for such polite words. Let's meet again." Han Li cupped his fist and said.

"See you again." Senior Immortal Hot Flame cupped his fist and said.

Afterward, Han Li nodded to Shi Chuankong and Hu San, then his body flashed, turned into a blue light, and flew out of the teahouse's window, instantly disappearing into the distance.

"The sect ruins are in the Black Earth Immortal Domain, you should already know this, right?

When do we set off? "Senior Immortal Hot Flame looked at the sky outside the window for a moment, then turned around and asked.

"No hurry, there is still a helper who hasn't arrived yet." Fox San said with a smile.

"In any case, let's leave here first. The deceptive formation we laid before may not be able to fool those supervisors. Maybe they have already caught the scent and chased after us." Shi Chuankong said.

After saying that, he made a gesture with both hands, and a silver light lit up in front of him. Immediately, bursts of strong spatial fluctuations came from the void, and soon, the three of them disappeared from the second floor of the teahouse.

… …

Time flew, and more than three years had passed.

In the rolling black mountain range of the Black Mountain Immortal Domain, there was an inconspicuous low mountain, sandwiched between two high mountains, like a valley.

In the dense forest above this mountain peak, there was a bluestone path that had been submerged in weeds, winding and twisting, leading to a dilapidated Taoist temple with two ancient pagoda trees planted in front of the door.

The mountain gate of the temple had completely collapsed, and the few spirit officer halls had also become dilapidated. Only the Three Pure Temple with a roof covered in moss and weeds was left standing tenaciously.

It was late at night, and the Three Pure Temple was lit with a hazy white light, shining through the broken window edges of the main hall, casting mottled shadows on the pillars and stone steps outside.

A green-robed man was sitting cross-legged on a shabby futon, and there was a dark green bottle on the ground in front of him. The bottle was surrounded by countless white light spots, and it looked quite strange.

The man was none other than Han Li.

After parting ways with Hot Flame Immortal Supremacy and the other two, as soon as he left Azure Forest Town, he used the teleportation lightning formation to travel several times in a row, completely widening the distance between them. Then, he rode the jade flying carriage towards the south.

During the day, he would travel nonstop, and at night, he would look for some barren mountains not far from ordinary towns to rest. This way, he could avoid other cultivators, and he could also avoid being harassed by demon beasts. Moreover, he could use the small bottle to condense the green liquid while cultivating the few time cultivation techniques.

Previously, he had taken the Spirit Cleansing Pill and dispelled a lot of the baleful aura, so the journey could be considered safe. However, he couldn't enter the high cities and towns with cultivators for the time being.

After about a quarter of an hour, all the white light around the small bottle was absorbed by the bottle, and the green liquid had condensed.

Han Li flicked his finger, igniting a pile of firewood not far from him, and started a bonfire. Then, he leaned over and picked up the small bottle, holding it in front of his eyes.

With the help of the fire, he could see through the jade-like wall of the small bottle that there was a drop of liquid slowly rolling inside.

Just as he was thinking about whether or not to enter the "Flower Branch" grotto-heaven to speed up the growth of the Dao Soldier, the "Dragon Fifth" mask on his face suddenly flashed, and appeared on its own.

Han Li was slightly surprised, and he raised his hand to make a hand seal, secretly activating it.

A red light shot out from the forehead of the mask, and in the void in front of him, it condensed into a human silhouette.

The silhouette was six feet tall, almost as tall as the main hall. It wore a loose black robe, and its face was covered with a dark red devil mask with two bell-like eyes, a hawk-like nose, and a mouth full of fangs.

Han Li couldn't help but frown, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. This was because he found that this was the appearance of the Samsara Envoy that he had seen in Lu Renyuan's memory.

"You are Dragon Fifth, right?

It has been nearly a thousand years since you became a Son of Samsara, and the first mission has passed.

You haven't finished the mission for the next thousand years, and you need to carry it out, "the Samsara Envoy said indifferently.

"It's already been a thousand years?

Time really passes quickly … "Han Li couldn't help but sigh.

"Do you choose to accept this mission, or do you want to use immortal essence stones as compensation?" the Samsara Envoy asked.

"I'll have to trouble you to tell me the details of this mission," Han Li said after thinking for a moment.

"This mission requires you to meet Hu San at Surrounding Magpie Mountain, and help him complete a ruin exploration. He will tell you the details after you meet.

Apart from the rewards you get from the ruin exploration, Hu San will also give you an additional twenty thousand immortal essence stones, or an ungraded immortal tool as a reward, "the Samsara Envoy said.

"Honorable envoy, may I ask if this Fellow Daoist Hu San is the famous Strange Bandit 'Silver Fox'?" Han Li was startled, and he couldn't help but ask.

"This … you can ask him yourself when you meet him," the Samsara Envoy replied indifferently.

Although the other party didn't answer directly, Han Li already knew the answer.

"If I choose to use immortal essence stones as compensation, how much do I need to pay?" Han Li asked after hesitating for a moment.

"Fifty thousand," the Samsara Envoy said coldly.

Han Li fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Although fifty thousand immortal essence stones was not a small amount, and he could afford it, who would be willing to give it to others for free?

He couldn't help but reconsider whether to go to the ruins of the Truth Sect or not.

Because of the Truth Transforms Sutra and Lu Ren Yao, Han Li naturally had a lot of interest in the Truth Sect. The main reason why he didn't want to go before was because he didn't trust Hu San and Shi Chuankong.

But now that this matter had become a millennium mission of the Samsara Temple, it was a little different.

As for dealing with the Evil Decay, there was no response from the mission issued by the Samsara Temple for the time being. The methods he could use were the same as before, so there was not much difference whether he was in the ruins of the Truth Sect or on the way to escape.

"What's your choice? Hurry up and decide." At this time, the Samsara Envoy suddenly urged.

"I accept this mission," Han Li replied in a clear voice.

"Good, after completing this mission, you will be free for a thousand years. As long as you spend the corresponding immortal essence stones, you can borrow all the resources of the Samsara Temple," the Samsara Envoy nodded and said.

Then, he waved his palm, and a silver light condensed in the void, converging into a vast map. In the center of the map, there was a red dot marked with the three words "Encircling Magpie Mountain".

"Remember this map. The place where you will meet Hu San is here. You need to arrive within half a year.

If you exceed the time limit, it will be regarded as a refusal to carry out the mission, and I will hold you accountable. "After saying this, the Samsara Envoy's figure gradually dissipated.

Han Li's eyes swept back and forth on the map several times, combined with the topography for a moment, and soon found the mountain where he was now. Looking at the sign, he knew that it was a place called "Old Hollow Mountain".

After carefully comparing the distance between this place and Encircling Magpie Mountain, he found that the distance was not too far. If he hurried on the Jasper Flying Carriage, he could arrive in about three months.

After Han Li memorized the map, the light and shadow in the void in front of him distorted and faded until it disappeared.

After recalling the map in his mind, he raised his hand and bent his middle finger and index finger. With a flash of silver light, the door of the "Flower Branch" Cave was opened, and he stepped inside.

…

More than three months later.

On a lonely mountain that was shaped like a steamed bun, three figures were sitting around a white jade table with exquisite carvings. Each of them was holding a silver wine cup, and they were toasting each other.

The wine cups were filled with dark red grape wine, emitting a slightly intoxicating aroma.

Among the three, the black-robed Youth was the most unbridled. He held a wine cup in one hand and a silver wine jug in the other. When he was excited, he would raise his head and pour the wine into his mouth.

It was unknown what kind of magic tool this wine jug was, but it seemed to contain countless amounts of wine. No matter how much he poured, the wine would constantly flow out.

"Fellow Daoist Hu San, speaking of which, Fellow Daoist Li is also fond of wine. If he hadn't left, you two could have become close friends in this matter of drinking wine," a white-haired old man sitting across from the Youth said.

These three were none other than the Hot Flame Immortal and the others.

"Oh?

That is indeed a pity. But everyone has their own aspirations, and it cannot be forced. "Hu San was surprised for a moment, but he soon said with an indifferent smile.

"Hu San, when will the person you spoke of arrive?"

Shi Chuankong, who was sitting next to him, had been looking at the distant scenery and was somewhat absent-minded about drinking wine. At this time, he turned around and asked.

"Should be soon, probably in one or two months.

This time, the higher-ups of the Mission Hall are quite concerned about this matter. The people who came to assist me should have been carefully selected. Just wait patiently. "Hu San poured another mouthful of wine and said.

As soon as his voice fell, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Heh, he actually came a bit earlier than I thought."

A jade-green light swept over from afar and suddenly retracted in mid-air, leaving only a cyan figure that flew down from high above and landed directly in front of the three.

When the three saw this figure descending from the sky, their expressions immediately became very interesting.

"Fellow Daoist Li, you are?" The Hot Flame Immortal was surprised at first, but then he said with joy.

"Fellow Daoist Hot Flame, and the other two, I trust you have been well since we last met." Han Li smiled and cupped his hands towards the three.

Hu San and Shi Chuankong looked at each other and their brows furrowed at the same time.

"You … you are the member of the Mission Hall who came to assist me?" Hu San's eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at Han Li.

Han Li sighed and said, "I also didn't expect that this routine mission would actually be to assist you in exploring the ruins of the Truth Sect."

After saying that, he raised his hand and wiped his cheek. A light flashed on his face and the mask of Dragon Fifth appeared.

Hu San carefully looked at the mask for a moment, raised his eyebrows and suddenly said:

"Hehe, I really didn't expect … you are Dragon Fifth?"

"What?

You know me? "Han Li withdrew his hand and returned to his original appearance. He was puzzled.

"I've heard from Jiao San that Dragon Fifth is extremely talented in alchemy and cultivation. That's why I have an impression of you. I've always wanted to meet you, but I didn't expect to meet you so soon. What a pleasant surprise!" Hu San said with a smile.

This time, it was the Hot Flame Immortal's turn to be in disbelief. He looked at Han Li and slowly asked:

"Fellow Daoist Li, you … are also a member of the Samsara Temple?"
