Chapter 1970 Coming out of seclusion
"Don't panic, fellow Taoists. I just want you to meet someone. I won't hurt your lives."
Du Qingyang spoke slowly at this time, trying to calm Han Li and the other two.
However, his body was more than twice as tall as an ordinary person and he was extremely burly. Half of his face was covered with black scales, while the other half seemed to have been burned by flames. His muscles were all knotted together, making him look extremely ferocious.
This undoubtedly made his words of comfort only have the opposite effect.
"Li will not hand his life over to others! Brother Shi, do it!"
Sure enough, Han Li chose to take action immediately and broke out in the same direction with Shi Chuankong.
After all, if what Du Qingyang and others said was true, then even if they were captured in the end, they could still save their lives.
And if it is fake, then they shouldn't just sit there and wait for death!
This was originally a very wise choice, but Han Li overlooked one point, which is the importance of true spirit bloodline to the Xuan cultivators in the Jilin Void Realm.
Due to the special environment in the Jilin Void Realm, bloodline transformation is almost the only magical power that the Xuan cultivators here can use. Ordinary use can greatly improve their combat power, not to mention that they have also mastered many secret techniques related to the true spirit bloodline.
After Han Li and the other two took action, Du Qingyang was not very interested at first, and just asked Chen Yang and a few other hunting team leaders to take action.
But when Han Li stimulated his true spirit bloodline and condensed various true spirit phantoms around his body, causing his own strength to increase dramatically, Du Qingyang immediately showed a look of great joy, and actually took action personally to defeat and capture Han Li and the other two.
"Since you are so stubborn, don't blame me!"
Looking at the two people who were unable to move, Du Qingyang showed a terrifying smile, took out two black stone bottles from his sleeves, and placed them on the arms of Han Li and Shi Chuankong respectively.
With a flick of his finger, the cork was opened.
The next moment, two three-inch long black centipedes crawled out from the bottle mouth, shaking two white tentacles like eyebrows, and crawled onto the arms of Han Li and the other man.
Then, the two centipedes bit through their skin and drilled into them as the two men looked at them in horror.
Suddenly, a bulge appeared on the arms of the two men, and after moving rapidly for a while, it stopped at their chest and formed a ring-shaped bulge.
A heart-wrenching pain came immediately, and Han Li and the other man fainted instantly.
"Chen Yang, take them to the Xuan Dou Field."
After putting away the black stone bottle, Du Qingyang gave instructions to Chen Yang who was standing beside him.
"Yes, City Lord!"
Chen Yang took the order and called his two team members to drag Han Li and the other man away.
"City Lord, they are the people that Master Luo wants. If anything goes wrong in the Xuan Dou Field, I'm afraid it will be hard to explain to Baiyan City."
At this moment, a discordant voice sounded. The person who spoke was a Taiyi Xuanshi in Qingyang City.
Although his strength was inferior to Du Qingyang's, there were two other Taiyi Xuanshi standing beside him, and judging from their expressions, they obviously held the same opinion as the person who was speaking.
"Humph! That's Baiyan City, not Xuancheng. There's no need for Du to give them an explanation!"
Du Qingyang snorted coldly and said with great dissatisfaction.
There is no doubt that the mysterious weapons from Baiyan City have greatly enhanced the strength of Qingyang City, but at the same time, there is also a trend that makes Baiyan City become a transcendent existence among the four affiliated cities.
Especially that Master Luo, whose reputation has recently been comparable to that of Madam Liuhua of Xuancheng!
Looking at the three people who were silent, Du Qingyang suppressed the depression in his heart and said in a slow tone:
"Of course, I will not offend Master Luo easily. After they start the Xuan Dou, I will let Chen Yang watch over them and save their lives."
"The city lord is wise."
The three Taiyi Xuanshi immediately bowed.
As the matter was settled, the Qingyang City Xuanists in front of the fortress quickly dispersed and continued to busy themselves with their own affairs.
But the three Taiyi Xuanshi turned around and went into a tavern together. After sending their attendants away, they sat down.
"Brother Qi, the city lord seems to have other ideas. Does he not want to hand over the person?"
"He even used the Black Robbery Bug, he must have other intentions towards those two!"
“That won’t work. Master Luo said that if the city can bring people from the outside world over first, he will provide that city with earth-level profound weapons first.
He has been preparing for this for several years, and this cannot fail!"
"Brother He, the same is true for Qi and Brother Lin."
"No, we must not do this, as it will not only bring us no benefit, but will also offend Master Luo!"
"What else can we do if we don't do it? Even if the three of us join forces, we can't defeat the city lord."
"Haha, Brother Qi, you're thinking the wrong thing. We don't have to do it ourselves. We just need to pass the news to Baiyan City. Master Luo will put pressure on the city lord and remember us well."
"Well, let's do it. I will send people to Baiyan City immediately!"
After some discussion, the three Taiyi Xuanshi reached an agreement that Du Qingyang should not be allowed to harm their interests.
Soon, they walked out of the restaurant together and prepared to make some arrangements.
But halfway through, one of them saw a familiar figure, and then an idea came to his mind, so he stopped the other person and asked:
"Yao Li, you are not training in the Xuan Dou Field, where are you going?"
"Senior Qi, I am following the order of Lord Gu and am going to Baiyan City to purchase some mysterious weapons."
Yao Li, who was wearing a purple dress, simply bowed in response and turned to leave. The three Taiyi Xuanshi present did not say anything to stop her.
It was because the Lord Gu mentioned by the other party was quite powerful and had secretly occupied the throne of the second most powerful person in the city.
"I didn't expect that Gu Qianxun's movements were faster than ours. No, we can't let her take the lead. Let's go!"
Everyone had the same purpose, and it was not difficult for the three Taiyi Xuanshi to guess what Gu Qianxun wanted to do, and their expressions suddenly became anxious.
Three months later, in Baiyan City, outside the Qixuan Tower.
"Brother Luo, Brother Luo, come out quickly, that person is in trouble!"
Zi Ling, who had been fiddling with puppets in the house for the past ten years, was now standing in front of the door of the tall building with an anxious look on his face, transmitting messages towards the inside of the building.
"Let's talk after you come in."
As Luo Hong's calm voice was heard, the door of Qixuan Tower slowly opened.
Zi Ling was really anxious, and without waiting for the door to be fully opened, she jumped into the building.
As soon as she landed, the ground beneath her feet began to glow with silver light, and a hidden silver magic circle was revealed.
The next moment, a silver light flashed, and Zi Ling was moved to a room on the top floor of Qixuan Building.
The furnishings in the room were quite simple. Zi Ling immediately saw Luo Hong sitting cross-legged in the middle, with seven or eight silver-gray stones scattered around him.
This kind of stone is a specialty of the Jilin Sky Realm and is called "Star Stone". Although it cannot be used to refine weapons, its texture is extremely tough and can withstand the full force attack of Taiyi Xuanshi.
However, there were fingerprints on these stones, some deep and some shallow, with clearly visible patterns. At first glance, Zi Ling thought they were some kind of clay sculptures.
"Brother Luo, according to the people from Qingyang City, that guy was infected with black calamity bugs by the city lord of Qingyang City three months ago and thrown into the Xuan Dou Field. His life or death is currently unknown!"
Zi Ling was extremely anxious at the moment. She just glanced at these details and ignored them. She immediately told Luo Hong the news she was about to receive.
"Luo had clearly made arrangements, so why was Junior Brother Han still captured? Please explain in detail."
Luo Hong frowned when he heard this. After all, Han Li’s experience was exactly the same as in the original time and space.
In the original time and space, Han Li and his party were discovered while spying on Chen Yang and others, and had a fight with them.
During this process, Chen Yang discovered that Han Li had multiple true spiritual bloodlines, so he decided to use Han Li to seize the position of Qingyang City Lord.
After using words to trick Han Li and the other two into coming to Qingyang City, Chen Yang immediately attacked them. Under the pretext of a test, he used the bone powder of the white mysterious beast to paralyze Han Li and Shi Chuankong.
What happened to them afterwards was exactly what Zi Ling had just said.
However, in order to avoid trouble, Luo Hong made arrangements in advance. It would be unlikely for them to fight when they first met.
Afterwards, as long as Han Li learned the name "Luo Hong", coupled with the Qixuan Tower that he specially built, it would be impossible for him to fail to confirm Luo Hong's identity.
"I have already asked. At first, everything was going according to your plan, Brother Luo. But because those people never called you by your full name, something went wrong!"
In order to save time, Zi Ling directly stated the reason.
"So that's how it is. It's also Luo's fault that I never told Junior Brother Han that I wanted to come to Jilin Void Realm before."
Luo Hong immediately realized that this was caused by his fame, but fortunately it was not a big problem.
"But Zi Ling, you don't have to worry. Du Qingyang dared to take the risk of offending Luo and forcibly detain Junior Brother Han and the others. He must have some ulterior motive and will never let them lose their lives easily."
As the trade between the four cities increased, Luo Hong also had a comprehensive understanding of the conditions in the other three cities.
Although the four affiliated cities of Xuancheng all adopted the hunting team model to obtain resources, the four cities had different ways of cultivating talents.
Baiyan City is the most systematic and has the most complete reward and punishment system. It can almost be regarded as a mysterious sect.
However, Qingyang City is very extreme. It adopts the Xuan Douchang mode of breaking through the limits. It's either becoming stronger or dying!
Han Li and Shi Chuankong were sent to the Xuan Dou Field as slaves, but most of the Xuan Dou warriors among them were actually normal residents of Qingyang City.
It stands to reason that once you enter the Xuan Dou Field, you will often face life and death crises, which is extremely dangerous.
But Luo Hong was certain that Han Li would be fine, because Du Qingyang needed Han Li alive before completing his preparations to seize the true spirit bloodline.
"So what are you going to do, Brother Luo?"
Zi Ling's expression eased a little after hearing this.
"Of course, I have to go meet City Lord Du who dared to oppose Luo, and ask him to move to another position."
Luo Hong was just not in a hurry, but she didn't say that she didn't want Du Qingyang's life.
"Do you want Brother Zhu to help?"
Zi Ling said with some concern, after all, that was someone else's territory, and there were many of the other party's confidants there.
"No need. Zhu Yan is the city lord now. If he moves, it will be like a war between the two cities, and Xuancheng will definitely intervene.
And if only the two of us go there, even if a civil war breaks out in Qingyang City, we can easily wipe it out.”
Luo Hong shook his head. This time he was only going to take Zi Ling with him, letting her play the role of beauty saving the hero, and see how Old Demon Han would react.
"Well, I will show you the results of my training over the years."
Seeing that Zi Ling still looked somewhat worried, Luo Hong knew that she was confused because of worry, so he activated his skills, causing all of his mysterious orifices to shine.
"this!"
After seeing the number of mysterious orifices on Luo Hong's body, Zi Ling's beautiful eyes suddenly showed horror, and then she completely relaxed and said:
"No wonder that guy always says that he is not as good as Brother Luo. This kind of training speed is really enviable."
"Haha, Luo remembers that there is a caravan heading to Qingyang City this afternoon, so we can go with them and feel more comfortable on the road."
Putting away his skills, Luo Hong chuckled and made arrangements.
Three months passed like this. In the Xuan Dou Arena of Qingyang City, Han Li was soaking in a blood pool of more than ten meters in size. Although his skin was burned red and his facial features were slightly distorted, he had no intention of coming out.
This was because at that moment, streams of heat were flowing into Han Li's body, helping him recover from the injuries of the previous battle.
Because the scaly beast he fought last time broke through in the battle, he was seriously injured this time. He must seize every minute and every second to recover as much as possible.
After all, the next battle will not be any easier just because he is injured!
"It's half an hour, come out."
A moment later, a young man in a gray robe walked into the stone chamber and spoke in a cold tone.
Han Li did not dare to delay upon hearing this and immediately jumped out of the blood pool and was led to the ninth district where he belonged.
"Fellow Daoist Song, you said last time that I would have the opportunity to purchase a mysterious weapon in half a year. Now the time is almost up. I wonder how the situation is going?"
After half a year of Xuan Dou, Han Li has deeply realized how important it is to own a Xuan weapon.
Although he had accumulated enough Xuan coins, the Xuan weapons in Qingyang City were out of stock, so he had to wait until today.
"Well, if we calculate the time, the caravan from Baiyan City will soon arrive in Qingyang City. I estimate that you will hear good news within three days."
The gray-robed young man's attitude was a little cold, but he still answered Han Li's question.
And it seemed that seeing Han Li's recent good performance, he paused and added:
"It has been three years since the last time the Qixuan Building sold new Xuan weapons. As usual, there will be new Xuan weapons this time. You can keep an eye out for them."
"Qixuan Tower?"
Han Li was stunned when he heard this, and a long-lost memory emerged in his soul.
"Have you never heard of the Qixuan Tower? That's where Master Luo refines his weapons. Except for a few city lords, almost no one has ever been in there. All the Xuan weapons we use come from there.
You would have been sent there, but since City Lord Du has other arrangements, you'd better not think too much about it."
"Qixuan Tower, Master Luo"
Han Li reacted completely at that moment, and the sense of urgency in his heart instantly disappeared. After a moment of silence, he spoke:
"Fellow Daoist Song, Li wants to go to Xingchi to practice."
"It costs one hundred Xuan coins to practice in the Star Pool. Don't you want to save money to buy Xuan tools?"
The gray-robed young man immediately revealed an expression of great surprise.
"No need for that. Please lead the way, Brother Song!"
Han Li smiled and shook his head.
I also bought some mysterious weapons, and I can use and throw away one after three days!
