#382 - The treasure was taken away? Who did it?
The other party agreed to many things. Gu An pondered briefly and finally said:
"Okay."
He originally wanted to try to raise the price to appear genuine, but he had just shown his eagerness, so agreeing immediately was also reasonable.
However, he needed to get the items first.
"Give me the spirit stones and pills first." The old man looked at Gu An and said, "We still need to wait for you to complete what you need to do."
Gu An agreed.
Being willing to pay a certain reward was already good.
As for whether other things were needed, it would depend on the situation.
If the situation became critical, or if the other party decided to do something else, then he should leave immediately.
The person in front of him seemed easy to talk to, but who could know what he was really thinking?
It's easy to know a person's face, but not their heart.
Especially since he had shown that he was in a hurry.
He had to be prepared to make sacrifices.
Soon, Gu An received the spirit stones and pills.
These pills were used to break through to the Yuanshen stage and were very expensive.
Even just these items were worth it.
"Lead the way." Gu An said.
Subsequently, Gu An was led to a secret room under the mountain.
Layers of protection made Gu An feel somewhat suffocated.
Once trapped here, there was no possibility of escape.
Moreover, with his strength, he was not enough to break the formation.
As he went deeper, the blood spirit that Gu An had left outside began to hide in the mountain.
To prepare for being trapped.
Secondly, he thought of three ways to save himself.
One was to escape with the treasures of the Merit Hall, and the second was to escape with the talisman left by Hua Jiyang.
The third was to wait for the opening of the Divine Monarch Hall if the first two failed.
Then ask the Hall Master for help.
Although he couldn't be sure if the Hall Master was Hua Jiyang, there was likely a significant connection.
Even if that didn't work, he could ask Dongfang Changli for help.
He didn't need to say it was himself; just telling her someone was imprisoned would be enough.
After all, the item the other party wanted was still here.
As long as he could enter the Divine Monarch Hall, there would be many solutions.
While Gu An's thoughts were constantly appearing, he was led to a stone door.
The old man leading the way said with a smile, "Go in, I have already prepared the magic weapon. You can take it when you come out."
Gu An nodded: "Senior won't come with me?"
"I can't come with you." The old man said helplessly.
Thus, Gu An didn't say anything more.
He originally thought that the other party wanted to go in as well and was planning to have him wait outside.
The stone door opened, and Gu An stepped inside.
The light inside was excellent, soft and not dazzling, but it allowed him to see the surrounding layout clearly.
The layout here was relatively simple: a pool, a rockery, and a pavilion.
There was a bright moon above.
It truly had an inner world.
Gu An walked on the path, heading towards the pavilion at the edge of the pool.
There was a figure there.
After getting closer.
He found that this figure looked extremely awkward.
At this time, the other party turned to look over. It was a scholar-like figure with an oily face, but his complexion was extremely stiff,
giving people a strange feeling.
His body was also uncoordinated.
In short, Gu An didn't feel comfortable when he saw the other party.
It even made him vigilant.
"Greetings, Senior." Although Gu An was vigilant in his heart, he didn't show it.
If he wasn't mistaken, this should be the Mind Demon.
"Who are you looking for?" The other party slowly opened his mouth, his speech also extremely stiff.
"May I ask if you are Senior Mind Demon?" Gu An asked.
Gu An felt that the other party was looking at him. After a long time, he finally spoke: "It's you, the person who cut down the Night Barrier. You, a person like you, have a certain amount of grace to me.
I can grant you one wish. You can make it.
I will naturally help you with what I can do."
In his opinion, the person in front of him was just an ordinary cultivator.
Giving him some benefits would be enough.
If the person in front of him wanted something, he could give it; if he wanted information, he could also give it.
But whether it was true or false depended on him.
In this remote area, no one knew him. The name of the Mind Demon was still spread by him himself.
If it weren't for the fact that this name could shock some people.
He wouldn't have told the truth.
But these people were ultimately shallow.
They simply didn't know what cutting down the Night Barrier meant to him.
Now that the other party had come, nothing else mattered.
Because everything would be completely resolved.
Gu An naturally didn't know what the person in front of him was thinking. He just looked at the other party calmly and said:
"Senior Demon wouldn't lie and tell me something false, right?"
"Naturally not." The other party replied.
"I don't believe Senior."
"What if you don't believe me? Can you make me only tell the truth?"
"Of course not."
"Then what's the point of you saying this..."
Before the Mind Demon could continue speaking, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Then he saw a blade of light streak past in front of him.
Pfft!
The Mind Demon's head flew up.
This sudden scene shocked the Mind Demon.
Then he immediately looked for the figure of that person.
And the scene behind him made his heart palpitate.
He saw that Gu An was already standing in front of him.
A compass-like sealing magic weapon was activating.
A wisp of energy that floated out of his body was directly sealed by it.
"No, what are you doing?"
The Mind Demon immediately shouted.
However, Gu An had already retreated.
At this time, the compass in his hand had completely absorbed and sealed that wisp of energy.
Looking inside, Gu An found a faint figure.
It didn't look like a man.
This surprised him somewhat.
But he didn't think too much about it and instead looked at the Mind Demon in front of him and said:
"Is Senior alright?"
"Who taught you?" At this time, the Mind Demon had returned to normal.
Being beheaded couldn't kill him.
This shocked Gu An somewhat.
Logically speaking, someone with his identity should be able to easily kill him.
Sure enough, with the passage of time, some of the news of the ancient Divine Monarch might not be correct.
On the contrary, Chu Meng's news kept up with the times.
However, the other party was much weaker. It seemed that for someone with his special identity to kill the Mind Demon was still much easier than ordinary people.
In addition, the other party's combat strength was very ordinary.
He was prepared to flee far away, but he never expected that the other party couldn't resist.
"I saw it in an ancient book." Gu An replied, deliberating for a moment before continuing: "In that case, can Senior speak the truth?"
"Ancient book?" The Mind Demon questioned:
"What kind of ancient book?"
"A dilapidated one." Gu An replied casually.
"You're lying. Who exactly are you?" The Mind Demon said sternly.
Gu An shook the sealing magic weapon in his hand and said, "Senior, let's talk about the deal. I do have a question I want to ask.
I think Senior is also eager to complete the deal with me.
Otherwise, if someone like me is always outside, Senior will have trouble sleeping and eating."
"You know a lot?" The Mind Demon felt that the person in front of him seemed different from those outside.
He knew a lot of things.
"Knowing how much is not important to Senior." Gu An looked at the person in front of him and said, "I don't want to make things difficult for Senior, and I hope Senior won't make things difficult for me.
Mutual assistance and mutual benefit. Once this transaction is over, we will have no more connection.
Isn't that good?"
"Okay, but you need to tell me who taught you." The Mind Demon said seriously.
"Okay." Gu An nodded.
Then the Mind Demon said, "What do you want?"
Gu An didn't hesitate and immediately said, "I heard that the Mind Demon is good at dealing with the primordial spirit consciousness. I want to know how to cure the primordial spirit split caused by the Seven Emotions Divine Soul."
"Did you cultivate the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Art?" The Mind Demon asked with some doubt, "Judging by your appearance, you haven't cultivated the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Art."
Is it for someone else?
Actually, it's simple.
The Seven Emotions and Six Desires Art is a flawed technique. You can simply switch to cultivating the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter.
However, ordinary people can't obtain the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter.
Besides, you can also switch to cultivating the Heaven and Man Forget Emotions Chapter."
Gu An was puzzled. The Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter actually had such an effect?
However, before he could say anything, the Mind Demon spoke again, "If this person is terminally ill,
then these techniques will be useless.
There are two other ways.
One is to find someone who understands the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter to sort it out for them using the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter,
but this can easily make the other person psychologically dependent.
Simply put, they will need to follow this person in the future.
It's actually just a different kind of illness, but it looks more normal.
The second is to nourish it with innate qi and blood.
In addition, the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Art must be reversed.
Logically speaking, a terminally ill person cannot operate it.
Therefore, more innate qi and blood nourishment is needed.
Combined with some formations and elixirs."
As he spoke, he wrote down the things and then handed them to Gu An.
After adding some details, the Mind Demon then said, "That's it. Don't think it's simple,
no one but me can cure this disease.
However, I don't guarantee a one-time cure.
It needs to be adjusted according to subsequent changes.
Of course, if everything goes smoothly, you don't need to look for me."
Gu An memorized everything, and then said:
"Okay, I've memorized it."
After the words fell, Gu An had a strange feeling.
It seemed that it would not be easy to chop off the other party's head again.
At this time, the Mind Demon looked at Gu An and said, "Now you can tell me, who taught you?
D
Gu An nodded and said, "A mysterious person told me, but I don't know his real name."
"You're lying." The Mind Demon looked at Gu An with cold eyes and said, "Although your mind is stable, your eyes are wrong. You must be lying.
You know that person and have a good relationship with him.
Who is it?
If you don't say it, you won't be able to get out of this place. They won't let you go without my consent."
"I need to consider it." Gu An looked at the other party and said.
Only after he spoke, he directly crushed the magic weapon given by the Merit Hall.
"Of course, I don't need much time. Let me think, he is a man, but he looks extremely majestic, like a god descending to the mortal world." Gu An spoke slowly, always thinking as he spoke.
Time passed like this.
One breath, three breaths, five breaths.
Thus, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
But he was not complacent.
After all, the magic weapon might fail.
But the facts proved that the Merit Hall was indeed a bit capable.
He felt a vortex appear around him.
Then he saw the Mind Demon angrily getting up and about to grab him.
But in the next instant, Gu An was covered by the vortex.
Finally, he completely disappeared.
The Mind Demon lowered his eyebrows, looked at the place where Gu An disappeared, and was a little angry:
"How dare he play with me.
How did he know?"
In the next instant, Gu An appeared in a huge formation.
Four people appeared around him, surrounding him.
Soon someone recognized him.
"Junior Brother Gu?" A fairy, so powerful that it made people suffocate, said:
"Didn't Junior Brother Gu just leave two days ago? Why are you back?"
Gu An bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Senior Brother and Senior Sister."
"It's okay, but this magic weapon is not cheap." The fairy said with a smile.
Gu An hesitated and said: "Ten thousand spirit stones is not a small amount. I have five thousand here. I wonder if I can wait until next month for the remaining five thousand?"
As he spoke, Gu An handed over five thousand.
The other party did not make things difficult for Gu An.
After that, Gu An smoothly left the Merit Hall.
Looking at the familiar sect, Gu An was quite dazed.
He's back just like that?
This magic weapon is simply ridiculously strong.
The treatment of the Merit Hall, which ranks among the best, is indeed good.
Ten thousand spirit stones seems very expensive, but this is a life-saving treasure.
Even if a strong enemy is brought back, they will be annihilated under the siege of those senior brothers and sisters.
Then Gu An looked at the compass in his hand. This thing was also brought back.
His original intention was not to bring it back.
How to arrange it now depends on Chu Meng.
She knows more.
In addition, the people of the Heavenly Maiden lineage are probably going to come looking for him. He has to be careful.
"After going out, I feel that the people outside are not easy to deal with. It's better to be in the sect."
He remembers that Hong Chenghu.
Unexpectedly, even if he kills the person in the future, he will not be able to escape this feeling of being calculated.
His strength is still not strong enough.
If he can use the other party's distraction to find the main body, then this danger will be directly stifled.
He has to become stronger.
The marriage certificate has been issued, and the special forest should be open to him soon, right?
Thinking like this, Gu An quickly went to Tianxuan Peak.
He has to let Noodle go and invite Chu Meng.
See if the other party has a way to prevent the people of the Heavenly Maiden lineage from searching for the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
Early morning.
A courtyard on the mountain peak.
Pa!
The middle-aged man heavily slapped the table and said: "What exactly happened? Why was the treasure in the secret realm taken away?"
A fairy below said: "Last night I got the news that someone knew who stole the Eye of Heavenly Punishment and gave the location. I went to check it out.
I found that the other party had escaped, so I chased after them.
So I don't know much about the situation in the secret realm."
The middle-aged man said coldly: "So who stole the Eye of Heavenly Punishment?"
"Gu An of the Cangmu Sect." The fairy said.
The middle-aged man said coldly: "Cangmu Sect is about to go there soon. Sooner or later, I will see this person. The other party does have a certain relationship with him. In addition, someone has been sent to investigate.
Confirm that he is disguising himself.
But this time, we still have to investigate clearly.
It's better to kill the wrong person than to let him go.
I already know this, and I even have a plan.
Now I just want to know about the treasure in the secret realm?"
Everyone was silent.
No one could give an answer.
They also couldn't monitor the things in the secret realm at all times.
"Find out who entered and exited the secret realm last night.
Also, check that Gu An. Since he's here, just grab him and ask.
I originally wanted to deal with him after going to the Cangmu Sect.
I didn't expect him to send himself to the door, so don't miss it.
I can always get some news."
There is indeed something strange about the other party, there is always a reason.
But soon, they got the news.
Gu An had completely disappeared.
And he escaped directly after getting the news last night and sought the help of Linghua Valley.
After that, he was never seen again.
"Escaped?" The middle-aged man lowered his eyebrows and said: "It seems that I have to go to the Cangmu Sect as soon as possible. Why is he running so fast if he doesn't have a guilty conscience?
I can't give him too much time to react.
Leave today.
Leave some people to investigate the treasure, and the rest will go to the Cangmu Sect with me."
