Chapter 576 Now that things have come to this, let’s get through this calamity first.
Seeing that Li Yuanzhen remained silent for a long time, the fake Fuguang suddenly spoke: "If the senior has a way to rescue Fuguang, I will offer my soul and never resist. Otherwise... I will rather blow myself up than obey your order!"
"...You are loyal." Li Yuanzhen raised his eyes, his expression suddenly became complicated.
Are there really such loyal spirit beasts in the world of cultivation? It must be fake. Aren't all the cultivators like True Lord Suiyun, who love to play tricks on each other?
"She went deep into the Hulong Snow Mountain to help me find the whereabouts of the Xuanwu Clan. If it weren't for me, she would definitely not have put herself in danger." Fake Fuguang said, his tone becoming increasingly depressed. "I am just her spirit beast. Cultivators are all heartless and ungrateful. I should have been the one thrown out to protect me in a critical moment, but she treated me as a friend and even saved my life in a critical moment. The Xuanwu Clan will repay any favor. I must rescue her at all costs."
Li Yuanzhen couldn't stand seeing these true feelings between master and servant and friends at this moment. She was still brooding over the fact that Suiyun had deceived her for three lifetimes, and it was even more difficult for her to imagine such a scene of mutual rescue. She didn't want to look at the sincere eyes of the fake Fuguang anymore, so she stood up instead.
"That's enough. I don't understand what you're saying."
Li Yuanzhen raised his hand and cast a forbidden spell deep in the fake Fuguang's sea of consciousness. He said in a deep voice, "It's not up to you whether to hand over your soul or not. If you don't want to, the Yuling Sect has plenty of forbidden spells and heart-eating poison. You can't threaten me with these... As for rescuing people, the Sect Master will make the decision himself."
"..." The fake Fu Guang collapsed on the ground. From then on, there was another sad turtle in the world of cultivation.
As the souls of the Qingyuan Sect cultivators were taken into Li Yuanzhen's hands, Bai Lan's reputation as the leader of the righteous path collapsed completely overnight, while his reputation as a demon became much more stable. At the same time, Wangyouzi, who was anxiously waiting for rescue, gradually lost hope.
Just when he was feeling discouraged, a female voice with reverberation suddenly sounded from the sky.
"Wangyouzi, who wants to attack you this time? Please let me take action once, and are you ready for your reward?" Wuchenzi came in the air, and within a few breaths his figure appeared above Qingyuan Sect.
"certainly......"
Before Wangyouzi could finish his words, Li Yuanzhen silenced him.
"No, I'm afraid he can't afford this reward." Li Yuanzhen was not surprised to see Wuchenzi. Instead, he smiled slightly and took out a jade ruyi from his storage bag: "Daoyou, do you recognize this item?"
"Jade Ruyi...wait, could this be the jade ruyi that is rumored to be able to avoid lightning disasters in the Boundless Sea?" Wu Chenzi's expression suddenly changed.
The invasion of the extraterritorial demons was too sudden, which disrupted Bai Lan's original plan. Therefore, when Wu Chenzi and other gods rushed to the boundless sea, not to mention Yu Ruyi, they didn't even see the shadow of Su Ji, so that the situation of the gods fighting for Ruyi that Bai Lan imagined was delayed until now.
The group of Nascent Soul cultivators came back empty-handed and thought that Su Ji had hidden himself with the Jade Ruyi. At this moment, all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the entire cultivation world were searching for Su Ji's whereabouts, but they did not expect that the Jade Ruyi would eventually fall into Li Yuanzhen's hands.
Wangyouzi's gaze also fell on Yu Ruyi, and his heart suddenly sank. He looked up at Wuchenzi with shining eyes, and he closed his eyes immediately, his heart completely dead.
He and Wu Chenzi are close friends, so naturally he knows his friend's character best. This person values money and interests more than his life.
If he couldn't come up with a reward equivalent to this jade ruyi, even though he had known Wuchenzi for many years, Wuchenzi would not save him. This jade ruyi, which was said to be able to weaken thunder tribulations, was priceless to a cultivator of the Divine Transformation Realm. Even if he gave all the black market items to Wuchenzi, it was likely that she would not be moved, and his life would be over.
"I'm using this item to exchange for the Forget Worry Seed. Daoist friend, you shouldn't stop me, right?" Li Yuanzhen smiled faintly. "I'm just taking a wisp of his soul. I won't kill him."
"Before that, let's inspect the goods first." Wu Chenzi no longer cared about Wang Youzi's life or death.
After scanning the surroundings, Wuchenzi's gaze finally settled on Nan Xianzhi, who had reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage. "It's you, little girl in the Foundation Establishment Stage."
He grabbed Nan Xianzhi and took a closer look at it. He also stopped Qinghe Zhenren, who was about to rush forward in shock, and Wuchenzi smiled with satisfaction: "This foundation is quite good."
Under Nan Xianzhi's horrified gaze, Wu Chenzi first took out a bottle of pills from his storage bag, wrapped it with spiritual power and poured it into Nan Xianzhi's mouth. Then he raised his hand and set up several sixth-level defensive magic circles around him, then retreated a thousand meters away and stopped moving.
His movements were as fierce as a tiger, leaving Nan Xianzhi no room for choice.
Nan Xianzhi, who had just reacted, was about to struggle to spit out the pill in her mouth when she realized that the pill had been carried deep into her dantian by spiritual power, turning into a pure medicinal power that wrapped around her Taoist foundation.
Is this...Qi Gathering Pill?
Oh no, she’s about to break through!
Nan Xianzhi's expression changed, and he didn't dare to hesitate at all. He immediately sat cross-legged in meditation, ready to overcome the tribulation.
Wu Chenzi looked at Li Yuanzhen and said, "First, let me see the ability of this Yu Ruyi. If it can really avoid lightning, from now on, Wangyouzi's life or death has nothing to do with me. You can kill or cut her up as you please, and I will never interfere!"
"It's a deal." Li Yuanzhen nodded and offered the Jade Ruyi to block Nan Xianzhi's head. "The goods are genuine and the price is right. You'll know once you try them."
Nan Xianzhi, who was undergoing the tribulation in the public eye, was now extremely confused. The pressure of being stared at by two Jindan cultivators and a Yuanying master while undergoing the tribulation made her break out in a cold sweat.
I don’t know whether this jade ruyi is real or fake, and whether it is useful... Nan Xianzhi subconsciously looked up at the jade ruyi above his head and frowned. For some reason, he always felt that the aura on it was somewhat familiar.
Forget it, now that things have come to this, let’s get through this first.
Thunderclouds gathered, and as Nan Xianzhi practiced his skills again and again, he soon reached the stage of condensing the liquid into a pill.
Thunderclouds suddenly gathered above the sky, and a group of Jindan cultivators and Yuanying masters all stared at Nan Xianzhi's head.
boom!
A bolt of lightning struck down with overwhelming power, but when it touched Yu Ruyi, its force slowed down, turning from a violent storm into a gentle drizzle. Even Nan Xianzhi couldn't help but look up at the thunder in the sky with a strange expression.
