Please call me Huanxian

Chapter 500 This matter was done flawlessly
At the exit of the Yongfeng Secret Realm, a blue cold current covers an area of ​​more than ten miles.

Master An, dressed in a black robe, sat cross-legged in the formation with an expressionless face. On the palm of his open left hand, he used special ink to write the word "Guan" in insect script, which was shining brightly. He frowned from time to time, concentrating on trying to figure out the true meaning of the word "Guan" that Taoist Xu was testing him on.

At present, he can only understand the superficial meaning of "observation" and "enlightenment of the mind", which also contains the changes of the sun, moon and stars. He knows that it is far from enough.

The more he thought about it, the more this word caused ripples in his heart, making him unable to stop.

He couldn't help but feel a little regretful, as if he had acted too hastily.

Based on his previous personality, if he thought someone was profitable, he would definitely spend time and effort to make friends with them.

Use the gentle and subtle method of appeasement, take the long view, slowly interact with others, and do favors step by step, even if it takes thousands of years. You can always get the benefits you need from the other party. Even if it is a trap, it is a well-thought-out setup that can be solved in one fell swoop, leaving the other party no chance of recovery.

This time it was really hasty and a little unbelievable.

He seemed to be possessed by a ghost and made a strategy to deal with the Taoist priest too impulsively.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Now that the opportunity to become a Taoist has come, he will do whatever it takes to get a few things from Taoist Xu.

Sensing the approach of a cultivator, Master An suddenly opened his eyes, then a gentle smile appeared on his face. He flew up from the formation into the air and bowed to the middle-aged man in a blue-gray robe: "Fellow Daoist Leng, thank you for your help."

The middle-aged man did not fly over immediately. He looked at the blue cold current calmly. Such a large battle was obviously intended to block the door to the secret realm. He bowed in return and said, "Master An, you are too polite. I wonder if you can ask for other help besides me?"

Master An threw a flawless white battle card and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhu will be here soon."

A figure with fluttering sleeves appeared on a hilltop dozens of miles away and said, "I hurried as fast as I could, so I shouldn't have delayed Master An's business, right?"

As he was speaking, a figure had already appeared several miles outside the formation.

"No, no, you came at the right time."

Master An smiled and threw a formation card, saying, "My enemy originally had only one person, but he had two accomplices, a swordsman and a formation master. I was worried that I would fail to trap my enemy, so I had no choice but to ask you two to come and help. The reward will be calculated as agreed. In addition, if you can kill the two helpers of my enemy, all the treasures on them will be divided equally between you. I only want the items on my enemy. What do you think?"

As an eighth-rank warlock master, he has made many connections over thousands of years and helped many cultivators or sects of the same rank to deduce, and has owed countless favors. For example, the two wandering cultivators in front of him, who are both good and evil, have been hanging around in the Shenfu Domain for many years. They once sought revenge on him. Although he paid a generous reward, they established a friendship.

Mr. Zhu, who was wearing a dark green robe, took the battle array and casually performed the ritual. It would be convenient for him to enter and exit the battle array later. He laughed and said, "Master An is straightforward. It's settled." He then said to the man in the air, "Brother Leng, what do you think?"

No one asks who they are dealing with, and it is only natural to pay money to get the job done.

It's also a way to repay a favor, and besides, maybe I'll need Master An in the future.

The middle-aged man knew Mr. Zhu. They had worked together many times before, so he was relieved. Otherwise, if he rashly entered the formation below and got tricked to death, he would be a fool. He also sacrificed the formation card and said, "No problem, Leng."

Master An took out three contracts, flew outside the formation, handed them to the two men, and said with a smile, "Let's stick to the old rules. Let's be frank. Let's put the treaty on how to distribute the spoils, not to hurt each other, and to help each other on paper witnessed by the Heavenly Dao. It's not that I don't trust you two, but I want to avoid disputes and troubles. Friendship should last forever."

Mr. Zhu took the paper, glanced at it, and laughed, "Although Master An is a bit fussy, he is prudent and won't argue later."

He took the brush and signed his name.

The middle-aged man read the terms of the contract carefully, felt more relieved, and admired Master An's character even more.

This deal is almost a sure win.

After the three people signed and sealed each identical contract, each took a copy and burned it with real fire, and the contract became officially effective.

Master An invited the two to enter the formation, assigned them tasks in detail, and explained the tricks of how to use the formation to deal with the three people.

Mr. Zhu suddenly asked, "Master An, how long has it been since the last severe storm?"

Master An said, "One hundred and forty-five years have passed."

"Fortunately, fortunately, otherwise it would be boring to wait for two or three hundred years."

Mr. Zhu thought of another question and asked, "Do you need me to send a few soul puppets to ambush at the entrance of the secret realm?"

Master An smiled and said, "I have already made arrangements. As long as the three of them are close to the exit, I will know in advance. The rest of the time, you two can just read books and practice. I won't waste your time."

"Master An is very thoughtful and considerate. I admire him."

"Yes, being the enemy of Master An is bound to bring bad luck to that person."

The two men praised Master An for a few words, but they did not ask what would happen if other cultivators broke into the formation.
Of course, when business comes to your doorstep, you should use the formation to deal with it directly and then divide the spoils.

Half a year has passed since then.

……

Si Shaoqiu was immersed in the joy of gaining something every day and temporarily forgot about the unpleasant experience.

She followed the two and only needed to break the Evil Wind Soul Gathering Formation where the treasure was hidden.

No matter how many wind spirits or mountain spirits she encountered, no matter how powerful they were, she didn't need to take action. The female sword cultivator was extremely powerful and killed from beginning to end without rest. With sword energy and sword light everywhere, she pushed forward all the way.

Fight your way into Quhuan Passage from Lianmo Passage, and then fight your way through Youze Cave.

The endless number of wind spirits and mountain spirits were cleared out by the sword-cultivating woman alone, and she killed her way all the way to the deepest and most mysterious Hundred-Hole Wind Cave in the Yongfeng Secret Realm.

She just pointed out whether the route was correct to avoid wasting time by taking a detour.

The Hundred Hole Wind Cave is different from other places in the secret realm. It is about a hundred miles in range and is riddled with thousands of holes. The air is filled with flowing fierce wind blades, which have the weak power of the rules of heaven and earth.

It is constantly eroding the monks' magic power and wearing away the protection of treasures.

Each time the three of them spent two days in the Hundred Hole Wind Tunnel, and another day to get out. After recovering for two days, they would change to another hole to fight in. They did this for two months and finally harvested three nests of six Mysterious Soul Flowers.

She knew that this was not Yu Fengwu’s limit. He was simply not a human being!

"Almost done, let's go back."

With just one sentence, Xu Yuanchang dispelled Yu Fengwu's idea of ​​continuing to sharpen the killing power of his heart sword.

"After we take care of Old Monster An, I will come in with you to practice. You can play as long as you want."

Xu Yuanchang explained in private that he was already familiar with the route and had learned how to break the various formations in the Yongfeng Secret Realm. Next time he came, there would be no need to bring a formation master with him who would give him a larger share of the spoils.

Yu Fengwu waved her hand to chopped off a few wind spirits that were blocking her way, and responded with a charming smile.

The three of them chose a shortcut to fight their way back, which took almost a month, and they stopped in an empty passage to rest.

Xu Yuanchang discussed the next move with Si Shaoqiu and said, "Friend Si, when we reach the exit, you set up a powerful trap formation, and I will leave a pet to guard the formation. The three of us will pass through the secret realm and give Master An a hard blow from behind, catching him off guard."

He set up a soundproofing system so he wasn't worried about being overheard. Si Shaoqiu asked incredulously, "You...you mean, we could have gotten out a long time ago?"

"Yes, I have a rare world-traveling talisman in my hand, which was given to me by my master. It can return to a location about a thousand miles away in the Yongfeng Secret Realm. I have made a mark on the outside, but it can only carry me alone. I need to trouble you and Feng Wu to temporarily hide in one of my treasure spaces..."

Xu Yuanchang was talking nonsense in a serious tone. He didn't want to reveal too much of his unique abilities to outsiders.

We must always be on guard against others. I heard from Si Shaoqiu that his four thousand years of friendship with Master An was also ruthlessly betrayed.

"No, I don't want to enter someone else's treasure space."

Si Shaoqiu strongly opposed it.

Xu Yuanchang was easy to talk to, and he accepted the advice readily. He said, "How about this, you stay in the formation at the exit, and wait for Feng Wu and I to attack Old Monster An from the outside, and then we will take you out. What do you think?"

Si Shaoqiu suddenly fell into great entanglement.

She was very worried that Xu Yuanchang, who only had a rough understanding of formations, and Yu Fengwu, whose head was full of sword energy, would be no match for the wily old man An, and would then just walk away.

Leaving her alone in the Yongfeng Secret Realm to fend for herself is depressing and miserable just thinking about it.

Yu Fengwu, who was sitting alone in the corner, turned sideways quietly. She really couldn't help laughing. This seemingly clever woman, a formation master, was really not good enough to compete with the sect leader who was full of tricks.

The sect leader has too many cards in his hand, and any one of them he reveals can be a powerful weapon.

"Take your time to think about it and give me your answer in two days."

Xu Yuanchang was particularly considerate and gave the other party enough time to think and weigh the pros and cons. He really did not force his companions.

He moved closer to Yu Fengwu, sat cross-legged with their backs against each other, regulating their breathing, and set up some private restrictions.

Si Shaoqiu was filled with worries. She always felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it over and over again, she couldn't find the problem. After careful consideration, she finally made up her mind to go out with the two of them.

Don't even think about keeping her in the secret realm.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Si Shaoqiu had already recovered her magic power. She had never lost any of it in the first place. She stood up and said to Xu Yuanchang who had come out, "I'll go out with you, but... please swear another oath to your inner demon. I know it's unreasonable, but I can't help it..."

"Okay, we don't intend to frame you, so it's no big deal to make another oath to the inner demon."

Without waiting for the other party to finish his hesitation, Xu Yuanchang agreed immediately.

There are too many lice, but they are not afraid of bites. He needs to unite all the forces that can be united to deal with Old Monster An. He must eliminate that tough enemy once and for all.

Old Monster An has already given up his power in Liuyun Domain.

If he were allowed to escape, it would be like there was a powerful enemy hiding in secret who was good at calculating and scheming, which would make him unable to sleep or eat.

The three of them once again made a vow to the inner demon. Si Shaoqiu felt relieved and asked, "Can you let me take a look at your spirit pet? I can set up a formation at the exit based on its characteristics."

Xu Yuanchang summoned the fire spirit, split it into two, pointed at the green little guy and said, "Please tailor a formation for it."

Si Shaoqiu was amazed to see that Taoist Xu also had two eighth-level spiritual pets hidden, one yin and one yang.

Old thief An was really confused, provoking such a terrible enemy.

After asking and learning more, Si Shaoqiu started to refine the formation equipment. It didn't need to be too sophisticated, just a disposable formation equipment, it just needed to be powerful enough. It only took her one day to complete it.

When the three arrived near the exit, they discovered the soul puppet lurking in the dark.

Yu Fengwu swept his hand away, and sword energy burst out, clearing the area cleanly.

Si Shaoqiu silently chanted a spell and shot several black shadows towards the exit. She had to race against time and use the methods of a formation master to investigate the situation outside. The more she could understand, the better.

The black shadow she released only lasted for four breaths, and the connection with her was cut off.

"What the old thief An set up was indeed the Jinzhan Hanpan Soul-Falling Formation. He added a new Great Huan Maze outside, and he invited at least one helper."

Si Shaoqiu simply informed them and immediately set about setting up a protective formation.

Xu Yuanchang knew that the Dahuan maze was a variant of the illusion array, and it was not difficult for him to crack it.

Two hours later, a eerie and icy formation was completed. Si Shaoqiu handed the formation card to the Yin Fire Spirit and carefully taught him how to attack and defend. During this time, a soul puppet was sent in from outside to investigate, but it was frozen to death by the Yin Fire Spirit using the formation.

Xu Yuanchang left a notice in the sky outside the formation:
"Fellow Daoists who have arrived here, please be patient and wait for ten days. We are fighting with the robbery cultivators who are blocking the door outside."

With this notice, the monks who come here will definitely not get angry and break the formation.

The act of blocking the door from outside was deeply hated by the adventurous monks.

After putting Yu Fengwu and Si Shaoqiu into the space separated by the Fantasy Fairy Ring, Xu Yuanchang activated the ring, and it disappeared without a trace after a flash of golden light.

After passing through the Qiyuntai blessed land, he returned to the Liuli City of Liulitian, which is hundreds of miles away.

Xu Yuanchang shot out two cross-border flying swords in succession. Seeing that the flying swords successfully escaped into the void, he entered the Liuli City and rented a guest house. After waiting for a long time, Liu Xueli, Xu Shengtian and Gu Yunzhu arrived one after another.

"Shengtian, why are you here too? Don't you need to guard Qingyao Mountain?"

"The tree my master planted withered ahead of schedule. He will never come back. The sect has the great elder Bai Yu on duty, so there will be no problem."

Xu Shengtian smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Third Uncle, if you want revenge, how can you do without me?"

Liu Xueli asked: "Sect Master, where is the enemy?"

Xu Yuanchang comforted his nephew with a few words, roughly recounted what had happened to him, laid out the formation diagram he had drawn, made some division of labor, and asked Gu Yunzhu, who understood the formation, to take two people and ambush on the periphery.

After a night's rest, the group of four left Liuli City the next morning.

After flying for hundreds of miles, Xu Yuanchang took the three of them on a shuttle trip and arrived at a valley a thousand miles away from Qumogang in Xu Yantian, and then released Si Shaoqiu, who was feeling uneasy, and Yu Fengwu.

"Uh... you're inviting so many helpers?"

Si Shaoqiu was very surprised when he suddenly saw three strange monks.

Taoist Xu does things in a flawless manner.

She secretly felt lucky that she and Taoist Xu had signed the inner demon oath in advance.
