Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 427 Human Puppet
"Come to test me?"

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

Perhaps Sang Kong went up the mountain this time with the intention of testing whether Yu State really obtained the top-grade spirit stone.

After all, so many demon cultivators coming to Shiwan Mountain cannot be groundless.

Never treat those demon cultivators as fools.

Of course, even though Sang Kong was here, it couldn’t be certain that the Wu Kingdom hadn’t obtained the top-grade spirit stone.

Top-grade spirit stones are too precious.

Not only the demon cultivators want to snatch it, but once one party gets it, the other two parties will also covet it.

It is also possible that Sang Kong tried to confuse Li Rui in this way.

'It's like looking at flowers in the smoke.'

Li Rui smiled slightly and shook his head.

He walked back into the room and took out the soul-seeking compass he had received from Chen Ming.

After getting the compass.

He was in no hurry to use it.

Instead, he checked the files of the secret guards and confirmed that the object in Chen Ming's hand was indeed the soul-seeking compass, and only then did he decide to return to the Shiwan Mountains to give it a try.

If he could get a top-grade spirit stone, he certainly wouldn't miss it.

Even if you can't get it, you can better avoid the disaster brought by the top-grade spirit stone.

No loss left or right.

Li Rui stayed in Qingwei Sect for some time.

Then he went to the spiritual mine.

Everything is done to prevent others from discovering any clues. For this reason, there is no regret even if it means missing out on top-grade spirit stones.

The best quality spirit stones only speed up cultivation.

Li Rui always holds the mentality that if I gain, I am lucky, if I lose, I am doomed.

Not long after.

He saw the towering giant peak from afar, but he did not go directly to the mining area of ​​Yu State. Instead, he stopped ten miles away from the mining area.

Li Rui took out the soul-seeking compass from his arms.

Then he activated it using the spell that he had finally found.

As the Evergreen Energy was injected into the soul-seeking compass, the compass quickly responded, and the needle, which had never moved before, finally began to move.

Li Rui's eyes lit up.

There is a play!

soon.

The pointer stopped, and the direction it pointed to was exactly the spiritual mine.

"Sure enough, there are top-grade spirit stones."

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then, he began to change his position around the spirit mine.

It took a whole day to finally confirm that the top-grade spirit stone was in the mining area where Qingwei Sect was located.

Li Rui looked at the needle of the compass in his hand.

'It's hidden well enough.'

So many people are looking for top-grade spirit stones, but the Qingwei Sect has hidden them for so long and has not been discovered, which shows how cautious they are.

I just don’t know whether the top-grade spirit stone has been mined or hidden by the Qingwei Sect.

Li Rui felt that the former was more likely.

After all, if the top-grade spirit stones had already been mined, they would have been moved away long ago. Why wait until now?

After confirming the location.

I have an idea of ​​this.

Only then did Li Rui put away the compass and walked towards the mining area where the Yu State was located.

Entering the mining area.

He just happened to see Ke Chuan tinkering with something in the Lingkuang camp.

Li Rui walked forward curiously: "Mr. Ke."

Ke Chuan turned his head and saw Li Rui, and smiled: "Master Li, long time no see."

Unlike Benshi, although Kechuan is also a staunch supporter of the Fifth Prince's faction, he is a good guy who smiles at everyone and has a good reputation in the spirit mine.

Li Rui: "Mr. Ke, what is this?"

"Oh."

"It was the Fifth Prince. He was worried about another attack by the demon cultivators, so he ordered me to reinforce the formation."

"I am really destined to be a hard worker."

Coltrane joked, complaining but not showing it on his face.

Li Rui was speechless: "Then don't disturb Mr. Ke from setting up the formation."

He was about to leave.

Ke Chuan called him and said, "By the way, Master Li, have you heard about the demon cultivator?"

Li Rui blinked.

Ke Chuan got straight to the point: "I heard that those demon cultivators came here for the top-grade spirit stones. Does Lord Li know the situation?"

Li Rui: "I have been practicing these days and have not heard of it."

Ke Chuan sighed with regret: "Your Highness once intended to let Lord Li find out what the Wu Kingdom and Qingwei Sect are saying. If there is any news, Lord Li can go and tell the King of Wei."

"Thank you Mr. Ke for letting me know."

"Hahaha, I just can't control my mouth. Even if I don't say it, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei will tell Lord Li."

The two exchanged pleasantries.

Only then did Li Rui return to his mansion.

Just like before, the evil puppet formation was still effective, and he set up the small five elements formation as usual, and then settled down.

It was just as Coltrane said.

The next day, he was called by Zhu Qian.

He was asked to find out the situation of Wu Kingdom and Qingwei Sect.

Zhu Qian's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Lord Li, the top-grade spiritual stone is of great importance and is a sign of good fortune. The first top-grade spiritual stone in the world must be given to my father. You are stationed in Qingwei Sect, so you must find a way to get the news."

Li Rui just clasped his fists and said yes.

Zhu Qian was still as domineering as ever, not giving anyone any chance to bargain.

Who says he is of noble birth?

Received the task.

Li Rui returned to his house.

check?
No need to check at all.

The soul-seeking compass has already given the answer, which is inside the mining area of ​​Qingwei Sect.

Of course, Li Rui would not risk going to Qingwei Sect to investigate just because of Zhu Qian's words.

What if the Qingwei Sect really has ulterior motives?

Use him as a sacrifice when the time comes.

There is no place to cry.

Of course Li Rui would avoid it if possible. He was rarely seen in Qingwei Sect during this period.

Have to guard against it.

He would never gamble his life on other people's conscience.

With so many demon cultivators around, it was impossible for Qingwei Sect to keep it a secret forever. He only needed to find the right opportunity to reveal the news to Zhu Qian, and that would be his mission accomplished.

One hundred thousand mountains away.

In a deserted temple.

Taoist Wan Gui was sitting cross-legged in meditation, with the young outer disciple of Qingwei Sect standing next to him.

At this moment, the young disciple's eyes were dull and his face looked blank.

Like a puppet.

Only for a moment, a struggle flashed in his eyes, indicating that his mind had not been completely wiped out.

regret
The young disciple felt extremely regretful at this moment.

He originally wanted to use the Taoist Master Wan Gui, but he didn't expect that he was turned into a human puppet without knowing it.

Human puppets are a relatively unique type of puppet.

It is an evil method that turns living people into puppets, while still retaining a trace of consciousness.

Life and death, even all thoughts are controlled.

I can't even ask for death.

"Master, Li Rui has returned to the Ling Mine from Qinghe."

The young disciple spoke in an emotionless voice, although he had no control over the words.

The Taoist Master Wan Gui showed a satisfied smile.

"very good."

Now, he no longer had to worry about this young disciple of Qingwei Sect lying.

"My experience in cultivating immortals is still too shallow."

This is the evaluation given by Taoist Wan Gui to this disciple of Qingwei Sect.

In the world of cultivating immortals, everyone knows that one must never make a deal with an evil cultivator, otherwise, in the end, they will be eaten until not even a bone is left.

What's more, he is several realms higher than the young disciple of Qingwei Sect in front of him.

He has ten thousand ways to control the other party silently.

He had long seen through the little tricks in the mind of this Qingwei Sect disciple, but he had never exposed them.

If I were to be schemed against by such a brat.

It would be a waste of his hundreds of years in the world of immortal cultivation.

"Go."

The Taoist Master Wan Gui waved his hand.

The young disciple regained control of his body in an instant, and he looked at the Taoist Master Wan Gui with a look of horror.

The Taoist Master Wan Gui spoke slowly:
"You can tell your elders to see whether I am faster or your elders can travel thousands of miles faster."

The young disciple fell silent instantly.

He said nothing, turned around and walked out of the deserted temple.

At this moment, he has accepted his fate.

The Taoist Master Wan Gui laughed twice.

If the young disciple of Qingwei Sect regains consciousness and returns to Qingwei Sect, no one will be able to detect it, unless the great Taoist Qingding personally checks it.

But how could someone of Great Master Qingding's status inspect an outer disciple?
So there is no way anyone could find the problem.

Moreover, he could also see the situation of Qingwei Sect through the young disciple's spiritual consciousness.

Almost like his eyes.

Taoist Wan Gui was in a good mood.

Just as he was about to continue practicing, a young monk walked out from the space fluctuations and appeared before him.

Ji Lei!

The Taoist Master Wan Gui's expression instantly became solemn.

The cultivator from the Hall of All Laws in front of him made him extremely wary.

Since the last appearance.

It was as if she had disappeared and had never contacted him before appearing today.

Ji Lei raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the Taoist Master Wan Gui with a smile:

"Daoyou, long time no see."

Taoist Wan Gui stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, if you have anything to say, please tell me."

Ji Lei smiles more:

"I came here for something."

"I believe that Fellow Daoist Wan Gui should have heard about the matter of the top-grade spirit stone."

There was a flash of surprise in the eyes of Wan Gui Taoist.

Originally he thought that this young monk named Ji Lei came for Li Rui.

It turned out to be for the best quality spirit stones.

All the excuses he had already thought of were useless.

"heard."

The Taoist Master Wan Gui nodded.

This matter was widely spread among the demon cultivators.

It was precisely for the top-grade spirit stones that he was chasing after that warrior from the lower realm. Now that Ji Lei brought up the old matter again, it was obvious that the spirit mine in the Shiwan Mountains really did contain top-grade spirit stones.

Otherwise, Ji Lei would not have come to him to talk about this.

Ji Lei: "I need you to do me a favor."

Taoist Wan Gui did not say anything, but just stared at Ji Lei quietly.

Ji Lei continued to talk to himself: "I want you to help me pass a message to those demon cultivators, saying that the top-grade spirit stone is in the hands of Qingwei Sect and is still in the spirit mine."

Hear the words.

The eyes of Taoist Wan Gui suddenly lit up.

Really!
The top-grade spirit stones are not ordinary spirit stones. Not only do they contain large amounts of spirit stones, but they are also extremely refined and even have special effects.

For cultivators at the Tongxuan realm, the effect is even better than that of major medicines.

In the world of immortal cultivation, he would never have the chance to covet top-grade spirit stones.

Nether.

I came here just for the spirit stones.

"it is good."

The Taoist Master Wan Gui agreed immediately.

Anyway, it's just spreading the news, and it doesn't cause any loss to him at all.

Moreover, by muddying the water, his chances of obtaining top-grade spirit stones would be greater.

Of course he was happy to do so.

Ji Lei laughed: "Yes, I knew that Taoist Wan Gui is an honest person."

An honest person.

The corner of Taoist Wan Gui's mouth twitched.

He has been active in the world of immortal cultivation for so many years, but this is the first time someone has evaluated him like this.

But if he really regarded Ji Lei in front of him as a fool.

Then he is truly stupid.

It is not far from death.

The greatest experience he had learned from living for so many years was not to treat others as fools, especially the disciples of these big sects.
