The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 373, Impersonation

He Zhixuan and his group all came from noble families. Although Hua Changxi confirmed through the 'Eye of Breaking Illusion' that they did not have anything hidden that could be used to transmit messages, cultivators have endless tricks up their sleeves. Who knows if these people might have some kind of bloodline transmission method?

However, Hua Changxi felt that simply confining these people to Li Huo Cliff was not safe enough. After pondering for a moment, she decided to use the Soul-Chasing Seal from the Twelve Styles of Soul Control to further control these people.

The cultivation of the Soul-Chasing Seal has a strong personal identifier; for example, the shape of the Soul Seal is determined by the cultivator himself.

When Hua Changxi was cultivating the Soul-Chasing Seal, he refined the Soul Seal into a lotus-shaped flame.

Just as He Zhixuan and the others were secretly relieved to have saved their lives, they saw a blooming white lotus-shaped flame appear in Hua Changxi's palm.

The white lotus flames exuded a cool aura, but not a chilling cold that made people shiver; rather, it was a refreshing and invigorating coolness that soothed the soul and made one feel cool all over.

The Yuan family has a long and distinguished history. While others were still confused, Yuan Xing, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Yuan family, suddenly changed his expression and his voice trembled: "The Soul-Chasing Seal?"

Hua Changxi looked over and said, "As expected of someone from a noble family, he is indeed knowledgeable." The next moment, he flicked the white lotus flame in his hand, which directly entered Yuan Xing's sea of ​​consciousness.

Upon seeing this, the expressions of the others all changed.

The Core Formation cultivators were alright, but the Nascent Soul cultivators knew the consequences of planting the Soul-Chasing Seal.

The Soul-Chasing Seal can locate, track, and detonate the soul.

Once a Soul-Chasing Mark is planted in one's sea of ​​consciousness, it's as if one's life is completely in the hands of someone else.

If the soul imprint is forcibly removed, unless the primordial spirit is stronger than the caster, it will suffer irreversible damage. Not only will the soul be weakened, but it will also cause chaos in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the caster will most likely become a soulless fool.

No one wanted to be branded with the Soul-Chasing Mark. Just as He Zhixuan was about to plead for mercy, more than ten white lotus flames flew out at the same time and quickly disappeared into everyone's sea of ​​consciousness.

Seeing that these people's faces had turned pale, Hua Changxi reassured them again, "Don't worry, as long as you refine your magical artifacts and mine your ores, and don't contact the outside world or reveal my information, I won't do anything to you."

Tang Yuyuan looked at Hua Changxi with a resentful expression: "This is a sealed space, and we have no way to contact the outside world."

Hua Changxi: "That's hard to say."

Tang Yuyuan wanted to say something, but Hua Changxi was too lazy to listen: "Alright, from now on this will be your home."

"This place is called Li Huo Cliff. All of you have fire spirit roots, so cultivating here will be beneficial to you."

Upon hearing the words "Li Huo Cliff," He Zhixuan and the others' expressions did indeed improve somewhat.

Hua Changxi inquired about the situation of He Zhixuan and his group. The five Nascent Soul cultivators all had some skill in weapon crafting, while more than half of the thirteen Core Formation cultivators did not.

"Duan Yue, right? From now on, you will take these few cultivators who don't know how to refine weapons to the bottom of the cliff to mine the Nanming Stone Mine."

"Of course, you can also learn weapon crafting. If you learn it, you can participate in weapon crafting as well."

Hua Changxi looked at He Zhixuan and the other three: "You four will take the rest of the people and be in charge of weapon forging." After saying that, she led them into the stone cave and went to the No. 1 forging room.

Hua Changxi pointed to the Vermilion Bird Token crafting process on the stone wall: "Take a close look, do you know how to craft it?"

As He Zhixuan and the others stared at the stone wall, a storm of emotions surged within them.

Hua Changxi had them refine the Vermilion Bird Token!
The Vermilion Bird Token is the same as the Xuanyuan Token!
The Xuanyuan Token is the identity token of the Xuanyuan Army, and the Vermilion Bird Token is the identity token of the Vermilion Bird Army.

He Zhixuan and the others were in a state of intense emotional turmoil, and they began to communicate directly through eye contact.

Tang Yuyuan: Just who is Hua Changxi?

Yuan Xing: Isn't she the peak master of Dan Yuan Peak in the Dan Sheng Hall? How did she get involved with the Vermilion Bird Army?

Gu Xiu: The identity of the Lord of Lingguang Palace has remained a mystery to all parties. Could Hua Changxi be the Lord of Lingguang Palace?
He Zhixuan: Don't look at me, I don't know anything.

Finally, Tang Yuyuan couldn't help but look at Hua Changxi and cautiously ask, "Peak Master Hua, why do we need to refine the Vermilion Bird Token?"

Hua Changxi looked at him expressionlessly: "There's no reason why. Just do as I say." She asked again, "Do you know how to refine it?"

Gu Xiu was the first to step forward, and his previous gloomy expression changed to one of enthusiasm and initiative: "Peak Master Hua, although the Vermilion Bird Token is just an identity token, it has many functions, including receiving tasks, exchanging contribution points, transmitting messages, and storing items."

“Refining the Vermilion Bird Token involves a lot of professional knowledge such as formations, space, and runes. After all, we are not professional weapon refiners. Even if we follow the process on the stone wall, the quality of the refined token will not be very good, and it will take a long time.” Upon hearing this, Hua Changxi frowned.

Gu Xiu looked at her and tentatively suggested, "If Peak Master Hua needs it urgently, it would be best to ask a professional fourth-grade or higher weapon refiner to refine it."

Seeing that Hua Changxi's brows were constantly furrowed, Yuan Xing seemed to be deep in thought.

Most of the weapon refiners of the fourth rank or above are in the Weapon Saint Palace. Although there are some in the royal family and powerful families, their numbers are not large, and there are even fewer in the common people.

I had heard that Hua Changxi had a good relationship with Tong Yao of the Weapon Saint Palace, and her sixth brother was also from the Weapon Saint Palace. With such a connection, she should be able to get help from the Weapon Saint Palace.

But judging from her expression, she didn't seem too willing.

Thinking that Hua Changxi had trapped them at Li Huo Cliff and taken away all their communication devices, besides making them refine weapons, the main reason was probably that she didn't want to expose the fact that she had occupied Li Huo Cliff.

Yuan Xing hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Peak Master Hua, I know someone with extremely high skill in weapon crafting. He crafted the Xuanyuan Armor worn by the Five Generals of Xuanyuan. Moreover, this happened a hundred years ago."

"If you can rescue this person and make him work for you, I think you won't have to worry about any equipment the Vermilion Bird Army needs."

Hua Changxi looked over: "Who are you talking about?"

Yuan Xing: "Gongshu Xingyan".

Hua Changxi asked again, "You said you wanted to save him, but he was captured? Who captured him?"

Yuan Xing shook his head: "A ghost clan leader from the Nine Netherworld Fortress."

When Hua Changxi heard that it was related to Jiuyou, his expression turned serious: "The Gongshu Xingyan you mentioned was able to forge the Xuanyuan Armor more than a hundred years ago, which means that his strength must have been considerable. If he has been captured, then the Ghost Realm Fortress must be in great danger."

There was a pause.

"Could Ghost Realm Fortress still be located outside the Nine Gates of Demon Prison?"

Yuan Xing nodded: "To get to Ghost Realm Fortress, we must first pass through the Gates of Hell."

Hua Changxi was speechless: "Even when I go to the nine fortresses of the Nine Nether Demon Prison, I have to be extremely careful to avoid not returning. You actually want me to set foot in other, even more dangerous areas of the Nine Nether? Are you sending me to rescue people, or are you sending me to my death?"

Yuan Xing paused for a moment: "Peak Master Hua can manipulate the stars in the heavens, and I think you have that ability too."

Hua Changxi rolled her eyes: "You're so amazing. Did you ever think before that I would catch you and trap you here?"

Yuan Xing awkwardly fell silent.

Hua Changxi glanced at He Zhixuan and the others who were trying not to laugh, thought for a moment and said, "Since you can't refine the Vermilion Bird Token, then go to the bottom of the cliff and mine." After saying that, he ignored them and activated the Fire Separation Token, leaving Fire Separation Cliff directly.

As soon as Hua Changxi stood in the rift valley outside the Fire Cliff, he felt the vibration of the 'One Thought Connection'. He took it out and took a look, and his expression immediately changed.

Three months!
She actually stayed in the Fire Cliff for three months!
Hua Changxi was somewhat stunned. It took her three months to absorb that wisp of fire.

Within the One Thought Passage, there were messages from Yu Fu and the other three, as well as messages from Yao Shi and Hua Minghe.

"Changxi, the box you requested has been completed. Do you want to come and pick it up yourself, or should I deliver it to you?" This was a message Tong Yao sent more than half a month ago.

Hua Changxi thought about the equipment for the Vermilion Bird Army and decided to go to the Weapon Saint Palace in person. If there was really no other way, he might have to ask Tong Yao for help with the equipment for the Vermilion Bird Army in the end.

After leaving the Rift Valley, Hua Changxi flew towards the Weapon Saint Palace. On the way, she witnessed another battle between cultivators.

This time, it wasn't just a few cultivators, but dozens of cultivators in a group battle.

"How dare you impersonate the Vermilion Bird Army!"

"What makes you think we're imposters? I'd say you're the imposters!"

Hua Changxi had just approached when he heard these words, and his expression immediately darkened.

Just as I feared, the Vermilion Bird Army's identity tokens, which were not used to prove their identities, were impersonated!
