"Fellow Daoist Li, he's trying to divide us. Don't fall into his trap!
The entire Asura City is under martial law. Even if you leave now, you'll be caught sooner or later.
The only thing we can do now is to rescue the old ancestor and borrow his strength to escape, "Hu San hurriedly said.
Han Li looked at Hu San with flickering eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Trap?
You can think of it that way.
I'm sure you're aware of the current situation in Asura City. There's no extra force to chase after you. In my eyes, a few Golden Immortals are nothing.
If you're still worried, I can give you a Nine Nether Token, "Yin Chengquan said indifferently.
As he spoke, he raised his hand and moved his finger. A black light shot out and landed in front of Weeping Soul. It was a black token made of an unknown metal.
Old Ancestor Liu Qi frowned when he saw this.
"Master, the restrictions in the entire Asura City seem to be scattered, but they're actually all arranged with a super formation as the core. The Nine Nether Token is a treasure refined from that super formation. There are only five of them in the entire Nine Nether Tribe.
With it, I'm confident that I can open most of the restrictions in Asura City, "Weeping Soul said to Han Li after receiving the Nine Nether Token.
"I've also participated in destroying the restrictions in Suan Ni's territory. I'm also partly responsible for the situation here. You wanted to kill me just now, so why is your attitude so different now? Why are you willing to let me go?" Han Li asked with narrowed eyes.
"Hmph, if it was any other day, none of you would be able to leave this place alive. However, I'm only here for Liu Qi.
You can block the divine sense attack of my wisp of soul just now, so you can be considered to have some strength. I'm letting you go to avoid some variables, "Yin Chengquan said coldly.
Han Li faintly smiled and said, "Your esteemed self's frankness is sufficient to show your sincerity. However, I must apologize. I have already promised Senior Liu Qi that I would lend him a hand. I can only tactfully decline your proposal."
Hu San's expression relaxed when he heard this. Old Ancestor Liu Qi's brows also unfurrowed, but Weeping Soul looked anxious.
"Brat, you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Since that's the case, stay!
Luo 'er, you've also seen it. It's not that I'm ruthless, but this person is courting death.
You should leave first so that you won't be implicated. "Yin Chengquan's expression turned cold as he waved his hands.
The huge formation on the ground suddenly lit up and a white light gushed out from it, enveloping Weeping Soul's body.
The Weeping Soul Beast was trying to say something with an urgent expression on her face, but the white light enshrouding her was so powerful that it didn't waver in the slightest, nor did it make any sound.
However, right at this moment, a grey shadow flashed past, wrapping itself around the Weeping Soul Beast's body like lightning.
Yin Cheng Quan's expression changed drastically when he saw this, and he pounced forward like a bolt of lightning. In a flash, he appeared above Liu Qi's head and punched out furiously.
"Chen's Saint" Chen's Dares to's Chen's s "to"'s "'s and let. He't" s.
The sound was so sharp that it could penetrate one's soul. It exuded a strong death aura, and it sounded like the sinister laughter of an evil spirit from hell. It made people feel like they were being dragged into the abyss of hell.
When Han Li, Hu San, and Shi Chuankong heard the sound, their souls trembled violently, and they felt like they were about to collapse.
On the ground, Patriarch Liu Qi waved his two front claws and streaks of greyish-white light shot out, instantly forming an egg-white light barrier that enveloped Han Li and the others, as well as the four lightning pools.
As soon as the light shield appeared, the strange sound of the ghost was greatly reduced.
At the same time, the middle-aged man's shadow flickered and appeared in front of Yin Chengquan.
"If you want to attack them, you'll have to get past me first."
The middle-aged man laughed and made a hand seal. A grey crystal light flew out of his body, and it turned into a thick stick shadow that was more than 30 meters long.
The two ends of the stick shadow coiled around the two shadows that looked like dragons and snakes. They emitted a heavy fluctuation of soul power and went toward Yin Chengquan's fist.
"Bang!" A loud sound rang out!
In mid-air, the cudgel's shadow and the fist collided with a loud rumble, and a dazzling light like that of a scorching sun erupted between the two. It was as if there were tangible waves of Divine Sense that suddenly erupted, and the surrounding void distorted crazily. Then, like a mirror, it continuously shattered.
The greyish white barrier of light was affected as well, and it immediately trembled without end while emitting crackling sounds of explosions. It formed strands of white and misty airflow that spread out in all directions.
However, the grey light shield seemed to be extremely tough. It did not shatter, and it quickly stabilized.
In mid-air, the middle-aged man and Yin Chengquan's bodies shook violently after the collision, and they were sent flying backward.
The series of attacks between the two sides were as fast as lightning. Han Li and the others only reacted at this moment. They let out a muffled groan, and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of their mouths.
The three of them looked at each other with a trace of horror in their eyes.
"Liu Qi, don't you think it's beneath your dignity to attack a junior!" Yin Chengquan shouted angrily after he stabilized his body and stopped attacking.
"Tsk tsk, it's really rare to hear such righteous words from the Yin Region Lord.
You and I have been fighting for countless years, and we already know each other's background. Do you really think that I haven't seen through your intentions? "
Old Ancestor Liu Qi sneered on the ground. The fox tail that was wrapped around the Weeping Soul slightly tightened, and the white light around the Weeping Soul suddenly cracked and shattered.
The fox tail moved, wrapped around the Weeping Soul's body, and returned to Old Ancestor Liu Qi's side.
The Weeping Soul was struggling with all its might, but after hearing this, it slowly stopped.
"What do you mean?" Yin Chengquan's pupils shrank imperceptibly, and he asked.
"Little girl, your original form is a Xing Beast, right?
If I'm not wrong, after Yin Chengquan accepted you as his disciple, he did his best to nurture you. He even captured people from various clans, hunted them, and took their souls so that you could devour them to improve your cultivation. Am I right? "
Old Ancestor Liu Qi glanced at Yin Chengquan, and a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes. He then asked the Weeping Soul.
"That's right. Master has been very kind to me …" The Weeping Soul glanced at Yin Chengquan and said.
"Then do you know why your Master dotes on you so much and is willing to pay any price to improve your cultivation?
I believe you know what kind of person Yin Chengquan is, right? "Old Ancestor Liu Qi ignored the Weeping Soul's words and spoke again.
The Weeping Soul's face was a little pale. It opened its mouth as if it wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
She had been aware of these doubts many times over the years, but Yin Chengquan was very good to her, so she did not want to be suspicious. Every time she came across this thought, she would immediately avoid it. Now that Old Ancestor Liu Qi asked her directly, she finally had no way to avoid it.
Han Li's heart moved slightly when he heard this.
In fact, before he came here, he had heard that Yin Chengquan, the first Dao Ancestor in charge of Tartarus, was bloodthirsty and good at using all kinds of treacherous means to force other small and medium-sized domains to submit to him. Therefore, even the Zenith Heaven cultivators in his clan respected and feared him. No matter how he looked at it, he did not look like a good Master who would accept outsiders as his disciple and nurture them.
It was just that the situation was urgent at that time. Although he had doubts, he did not think too much about it. Now it seemed like …
In the air, Yin Chengquan's expression was indifferent, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"I believe you all know that the Tartarus Tribe can use Nether Worms to control others.
I have to say that this divine ability of the Tartarus Tribe is very powerful. Not only can it control puppets, but it can also create a mysterious connection between the master and the puppet through the Nether Worms. If the master and the puppet have similar control over the laws, it is very easy for them to reach the realm of merging the laws. This is also one of the important reasons why the Tartarus Tribe can be one of the three overlords in the Dust World. "Old Ancestor Liu Qi smiled and suddenly changed the topic.
"Senior Liu Qi, what do you think this has to do with the Weeping Soul?" Han Li vaguely had a thought, but he did not dare to confirm it.
"Due to some accident, I was heavily injured and ended up in the Dust World. I was captured by Yin Chengquan and imprisoned here.
The reason why Yin Chengquan did not kill me was because he wanted the Law of Heavenly Phantasm that I have mastered. He cultivates the Law of Phantasm. If he can successfully refine me into a Nether Puppet, the power of the two laws will increase by several folds. At that time, I'm afraid that no one in the Dust World will be his opponent. "Old Ancestor Liu Qi sneered and continued to speak with assurance.
When the Weeping Soul heard this, it seemed to have thought of something and its face turned pale.
"However, to control me, who is also in the Dao Ancestor Realm, Yin Chengquan needs a very high level Nether Worm. It is impossible for ordinary souls to refine them. That's why Yin Chengquan nurtured you at all costs. Xing Beast is an extremely high level soul body that has the ability to absorb souls and devour ghosts. It is the most suitable to refine a top Nether Worm.
However, your cultivation is still low, so he probably wants to nurture you until you reach the Great Luo Realm before refining you to ensure that nothing goes wrong, "Old Ancestor Liu Qi said slowly.
When the Weeping Soul heard this, its face turned even paler.
When Han Li saw the Weeping Soul's expression, he sighed in his heart. He had experienced being schemed against by someone he respected in the past. Although it had been many years, it had a great impact on his cultivation after that.
"Master, is what he said true?" The Weeping Soul slowly raised its head and asked Yin Chengquan who was in midair.
"Hehe, Luo 'er, I had a lot of fun playing this game of being a good teacher and a filial disciple. I originally wanted to continue, but since you already know, let's stop here."
Yin Chengquan's expression had regained its calmness. When he heard the Weeping Soul's words, a plain smile appeared on his face, but it gave off a chilling feeling.
The Weeping Soul's body trembled, and the last trace of blood on its face disappeared.
Han Li looked at Yin Chengquan and squinted his eyes. A trace of coldness flashed across his eyes.
"Liu Qi, you just said that we have been fighting for many years and it is difficult for us to hide our thoughts from each other. However, this is not entirely true. For example, can you guess why I listened to you quietly?" Yin Chengquan turned to look at Old Ancestor Liu Qi and said with the same smile on his face.
Old Ancestor Liu Qi was stunned. He immediately looked at the Weeping Soul in front of him and seemed to have realized something.
At this moment, something strange happened!
