"Junior brother Han, during these days of refining treasures, has the wind spirit energy in your body changed in any way?"
Luo Hong wanted to judge Feng Xi's movements, so he asked.
"I have been trying to break through my junior brother's suppression, but I haven't had a violent attack in a long time."
Han Li sighed worriedly. Having such a foreign object in his body really made it difficult for him to sleep or eat well.
"I'm afraid this is just the calm before the storm. This demon must have realized that it was poisoned and couldn't catch up with us, so it planned to remove the poison from its body first and then pursue us with all its strength.
We must not take it lightly and continue on our way."
An injury like a broken arm would not affect Feng Xi's strength too much. Before condensing the Nascent Soul, Luo Hong didn't want to face this monster again.
"Senior brother is absolutely right."
After Han Li nodded in agreement, the two of them fled towards Nanli Island at full speed.
Because there were thunderous explosions and flashes of white light from time to time during the escape, the two escaped more than twice as fast. More than a month later, they arrived at the outer waters of Nanli Island.
Once here, the surroundings are finally no longer deserted and desolate, and occasionally the escaping lights of immortal cultivators can be seen.
In order to prevent their identities from being exposed, both Luo Hong and Han Li used the secret technique of disguise.
Luo Hong turned into a young man with a red face and white teeth, while Han Li turned into an old man with black and white hair and a cold face.
Because almost all the immortal cultivators outside Qiyuan gathered here, during this period when monsters were rampant and the monks were weak, Nanli Island showed a morbidly prosperous scene.
Within a few decades, a large island protection array was built on the island. The peaks were crowded with buildings. Small sects and sects who wanted to come to the outer sea, as long as they had not been wiped out by monsters, were all established on the island.
A temporary residence.
As soon as the two of them flew close to the island-protecting formation, a middle-aged monk in the early stage of elixir formation and several foundation-building stage monks blocked their way.
"The two fellow Taoists look really strange. Have you ever visited Nanli Island before?"
The middle-aged monk scanned their faces with spiritual light in his eyes. Although he could not see through Luo Hong and Han Li's secret skills of disguise due to his cultivation level, the sudden appearance of two monks in the alchemy stage was really suspicious.
The connection with the inland sea has been severed.
On alert, he ordered his foundation-building monks to quietly surround the two of them, while he was always ready to activate the call for help talisman.
"Although it is our first time to come to Nanli Island, we have some history with Fellow Daoist Ling. Fellow Daoist, you might as well inform us on your behalf and say, 'Array Master Luo Hong is here to visit, and I would like to invite Fellow Daoist Ling to meet you.'"
As soon as the middle-aged monk appeared, Luo Hong discovered the same secret mark on him as Protector Bai and others, and immediately realized that this man was also one of Ling Yuling's protectors.
This saves a lot of trouble.
Currently being hunted, Luo Hong didn't hold back and said bluntly.
The middle-aged monk was shocked when he heard this. This person knew that the young master was here and brought someone here. He was indeed a good friend of the young master.
After a sudden change of expression, the middle-aged monk hit two transmission notes one after another.
Not long after I saw two flames flying out, two more monks at the Dan Formation stage flew over.
Upon seeing this, Han Li winked at Luo Hong, warning that the other party would make a sudden move.
Luo Hong had already seen clearly that the person coming was Lu Gao, whom he had beaten before, so he gave a reassuring look in return.
Naturally, Lu Zhengyi could not recognize Luo Hong after the disguise. After learning the details from the middle-aged monk, he asked with a smile:
"May I ask where you two fellow Taoists practiced hidden cultivation before?"
"It's just an unknown desert island, not worth mentioning."
Luo Hong responded casually, secretly thinking that these people were really cautious, and it seemed that the other transmission note was used for notification.
Lu Zhengyi was not angry because of Luo Hong's indifference, but tried every means to start a conversation, as if he would not give up until the specific origins of the two were revealed.
Just when Luo Hong was about to be annoyed by him and was about to punch him, a white ray of light flew from the center of Nanli Island and arrived in front of everyone in a short time.
The light faded away, and Ling Yuling's beautiful face emerged.
As soon as Ling Yuling appeared, the surrounding Star Palace monks bowed their hands respectfully, but she paid no attention to him, her eyes swept over the changed faces of Luo Hong and Han Li.
Although she could not recognize which one was Luo Hong, she was very smart and did not ask directly, otherwise she would expose Luo Hong's disguise.
Although her protectors are loyal to her, they should obey the orders of the Twin Saints of Heaven and Star. There is nothing wrong with this, but she doesn't want the Twin Saints to know about the choice she has made yet.
"How did Brother Luo escape from danger that day? I thought you had died!"
"I also had a narrow escape from danger.
However, we are still in deep trouble at this time, and the two of us may have to trouble fellow Taoists to make it easier."
Luo Hong implored him bluntly.
Ling Yuling nodded slightly, and then said to the people who were bowing:
"These two are my young master's friends, please step aside.
Brother Luo, please come with me to Nanli Pavilion to talk."
Ling Yuling had spoken. Although the three of them had doubts, they did not dare to disobey them. They saw their young master leading two monks of the pill-forming stage with suspicious origins through the formation.
As the residence of Ling Yuling, Nanli Pavilion was built in a very grand manner, but it was only superficially grand, far from the luxury of the spiritual objects everywhere in the Star Palace.
Stepping into the hall, Ling Yuling activated the formation and forbidden consciousness, then looked at Han Li's transformation strangely and said:
"Brother Han, I asked Brother Zhuo before. If the Xutian Cauldron is not in his hands, it must be in your hands. Can you take it out so that I can broaden my horizons?"
Han Li suddenly became embarrassed and turned to look at Luo Hong.
"Junior Brother Han, Fellow Daoist Ling is the Young Master of Star Palace, and he has never seen any treasures.
However, compared to external objects, immortal cultivators should pay more attention to their own cultivation. After all, if they don’t have cultivation, even if the treasure is placed in front of them, it will be in vain.”
Luo Hong said with a chuckle, dispelling the secret technique and returning to his original appearance.
"Brother Zhuo really protects you as a junior brother.
Forget it, since I don't have a chance, I won't force it.
Brother Zhuo has so many magical powers and can still be called troublesome. It must be something serious. Tell me what I can do to help."
Ling Yuling rolled her eyes coquettishly and asked with interest.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, please speak quickly. Zhuo Mou will tell you directly. I would like to ask if your teleportation array connecting to the inner sea has been repaired?"
After Luo Hong raised his hands and thanked her, he asked expectantly.
"Brother Zhuo asked me for help twice, and it was actually related to the teleportation array, which is particularly interesting.
Unfortunately, the long-distance teleportation array lacks key materials and has not been completely repaired.
In addition, I would like to remind you two brothers that Xutian Cauldron’s popularity is only superficial now, but those old monsters in the Nascent Soul Stage have never stopped pursuing it.”
Ling Yuling was secretly frightened. What kind of trouble could be greater than the threat from the group of Nascent Soul monsters in the Inner Sea who were eyeing them?
