With the Eight Immortals' magical treasures in hand, even a mortal like myself! Ha!

Of course, the two cultivators who were not present before the tournament were not Han Li. At this moment, Han Li was observing the situation inside the competition arena from the edge of the formation.

Therefore, Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, became interested in Han Li and wanted to deal with him alone.

The observant Han Li noticed the green fingernails on the hands of the Yan Family Fort cultivators and immediately realized something was wrong, discovering that the Yan Family Fort cultivators might all be cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Without hesitation, Han Li steered the flying boat away.

Wang Chan burst into laughter upon seeing this: "Hahaha, trying to run away, what an interesting little bug!"

It seems Wang Chan is extremely interested in Han Li; her excited smile is like seeing a beautiful woman running towards her.

And so, the flying boat that Han Li had transformed into escaped, with the black mist that Wang Chan had transformed into chasing after it.

Han Li fled, and Wang Chan chased after him. He fled, and she chased; he chased, and she fled. The two flew more than a hundred miles in a row, showing that they were both very fast.

Meanwhile, Gu Qing, who was in Yan Family Fortress, did not rush to catch up. Instead, he took a liking to the two Core Formation cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Only the bodies of cultivators at the Core Formation stage or above can contain the powerful divine souls of the Eight Immortals; ordinary bodies would only be disintegrated and dispersed by the powerful divine souls of the Eight Immortals.

Therefore, Gu Qing set his sights on the two Core Formation cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Currently, two Core Formation cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect are subduing the Foundation Establishment cultivators within the formation. Because they need the souls of these Foundation Establishment cultivators to be useful, the two Core Formation cultivators are acting very cautiously, afraid that they might accidentally destroy the souls of these cultivators and ruin Wang Chan's important matter.

After the two Core Formation cultivators dealt with everyone, they wanted to go and support Wang Chan, fearing that something might have happened to their young master.

But just as the two flew into the air, they were blocked by Tieguai Li and Gu Qing. The two Li brothers were surprised to see one in the late stage of Core Formation and the other in the late stage of Foundation Establishment blocking their way.

They hadn't noticed the two people's presence just now. What surprised the Li brothers the most was Tieguai Li, a cultivator in the late stage of Core Formation.

"Who are you, daring to obstruct the actions of our Ghost Spirit Sect?" the Li brothers said sternly, but one of them was at the early stage of Core Formation and the other at the middle stage of Core Formation, so their tone seemed somewhat lacking in confidence.

Gu Qing summoned the Purple Gold Flute, ready to work with Tieguai Li to capture the two men instantly.

Tieguai Li used his iron crutch to stop Gu Qing and said with a smile, "Two little devils, fellow Daoist, you don't need to make a move. I can handle them by myself."

Seeing this, Gu Qing put away the Purple Gold Flute and watched Tieguai Li perform.

"Hmph! Such big talk, aren't you afraid of breaking your back!" The Li brothers' sleeves swirled with demonic winds, and a large amount of black energy emerged, enveloping an area of ​​a hundred feet in just a moment.

Gu Qing felt a chill in the wind, as if something terrifying was hidden within the black wind, making him tremble with fear.

"Is this the difference between a Core Formation cultivator and a Foundation Establishment cultivator? Even before a simple spell is finished, it has such an oppressive force." Gu Qing couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Upon seeing this, Tieguai Li threw the gourd from his waist into the sky. The gourd opened up in the wind and instantly grew to a size of over ten zhang, while emitting rays of golden light.

Under the golden light, the demonic wind released by the Li brothers vanished instantly, leaving only the bewildered expressions on their faces.

Before Tieguai Li could finish his actions, the gourd opened, and a beam of light enveloped the two Li brothers. The brothers were so blinded by the golden light that they could not open their eyes, and their hands were flailing wildly. Before they could even react to what was happening, they were directly absorbed by the gourd.

"Hehehe, my gourd has the function of suppressing demons and warding off evil spirits. What do you think, fellow Daoist?" Tieguai Li said with a smile.

"Amazing!" Gu Qing said sincerely.

"What do these people below have to say?" Tieguai Li asked, pointing to the Foundation Establishment disciples of the Ghost Spirit Sect and the Seven Sects on the ground.

Gu Qing glanced at them and said, "Wake them up and let them escape. We have more important things to do."

Upon hearing this, Tieguai Li brandished his iron crutch, and all the cultivators from the seven sects who had been bound by the Ghost Spirit Sect were released, and their divine consciousness was restored.

Although the group didn't know what was going on, they realized that the Ghost Spirit Sect members in front of them were all enemies. They were fighting each other in no time, and all kinds of magical artifacts filled the sky.

Gu Qing and Tieguai Li didn't pay much attention; they simply used their magical artifacts to leave, chasing after the direction Han Li and Wang Chan had gone.

After chasing for over a hundred miles, Gu Qing and Tieguai Li saw Wang Chan, who looked unwell.

Wang Chan, whose face was pale, also saw Gu Qing and Tieguai Li.

Gu Qing stared at Wang Chan, thought for a moment, and finally decided not to kill her. Who knew if she would use a method to descend to the Nascent Soul stage? There were many similar techniques in the demonic path, and they were recorded in both Tiannan and the Chaotic Star Sea.

"These two are the ones who let the Seven Sects' Foundation Establishment cultivators go? Damn it!" Wang Chan stared in the direction the two left, but in the end, she didn't dare to chase after them.

According to the Ghost Guard's report, both of the Li brothers, who were Core Formation cultivators, were subdued by the other party, indicating that the other party was not a simple person.

Since the other party is ignoring me, there is no better outcome.

Gu Qing and Tieguai Li flew at an extremely fast speed using their magical artifacts. Don't forget that Tieguai Li could travel thousands of miles in an instant by using his iron crutch to ride the clouds.

Even if Han Li's Divine Wind Boat is incredibly fast, it can't possibly outrun Tieguai Li's crutch.

So in just a moment, Gu Qing and Tieguai Li caught up with Han Li. Han Li was on high alert, but in the end he still didn't realize that someone was following him.

Han Li flew rapidly towards Huangfeng Valley, wanting to send the message back to the seniors in the valley as soon as possible. However, on the way, he encountered a team composed of members from Huadaowu and Yanyue Sect. Under the announcement of the leader, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Han Li was conscripted.

The place they were conscripted to was the mine where the teleportation array Gu Qing and Tieguai Li were looking for was located.

Several days later, Gu Qing and Tieguai Li secretly followed Han Li and his group to a huge desert. The spirit stone mine was located in a deep canyon over a hundred feet deep in the desert.

Upon seeing the Grand Canyon, Gu Qing knew he had arrived at his destination. However, he did not rush in. Instead, he and Tieguai Li found a secluded place to hide, and then had Tieguai Li release the demonic cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect.

The Li brothers were bound and stripped of all their cultivation, leaving them completely at the mercy of others.

"Who are you? How dare you lay a hand on people from our Ghost Spirit Sect? Aren't you afraid of our Ghost Spirit Sect's retaliation?" Li's elder brother said threateningly, trying to intimidate Gu Qing and his companion.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing simply smiled and said, "Even the Ghost Spirit Sect isn't afraid to be enemies with our seven sects, so why would our seven sects be afraid of the Ghost Spirit Sect?"
