"In this secret realm surrounded by high-level monsters, if there is an acquaintance who can take care of each other, it will naturally be a good thing for formation mages like us who are not good at fighting, so we made an appointment with our companions.
OK.
I just didn’t expect that benefits and money would move people’s hearts;
After the two of us jointly hunted for treasure, we set up formations every time we visited a spiritual vein, and then lured the third-level monsters stationed here. We killed the monsters through the formations, and then we could search for the spiritual veins at will.
of spiritual beings.
Although third-level monsters have some intelligence, they are still quite limited in the final analysis;
We succeeded a lot, so naturally we found a lot of spiritual objects.
Those spiritual objects can even prevent us from worrying about spiritual stones until we reach the later stage of Zifu;
So I suggested that you should just find a place to hide!
But one of my friends disagrees."
Speaking of this, Bai Lan's expression was a little strange, with excitement, regret, and more sadness and disappointment.
Come to think of it, Bai Lan and his friend who have known each other for more than fifty years suddenly fell out and even went to war with each other.
Gu Changhuan thought so.
Here, Bai Lan continued:
"My friend said that accidentally entering the secret realm is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this time, you won't know how much time and spiritual stones it will take to get such an opportunity next time;
It is not easy to practice as a casual practitioner. Now the opportunity is right in front of you. If you miss it, you may end up in the Purple Mansion Stage in this life, and there will be no possibility of condensing the golden elixir.
But I feel that I have found enough spiritual objects so far, so there is no need to take more risks;
We each expressed our opinions and argued for a while, but no one could convince anyone;
Finally decided to take a step back.
It was our last search for a spiritual vein, but what neither of us expected was that on the last spiritual vein, we actually found a Jinyuan fruit tree."
Jinyuan Fruit Tree!
Gu Changhuan perked up.
But Bai Lan didn't notice the change in Gu Changhuan's expression, and he continued:
"There are two mature Jinyuan fruits on the Jinyuan fruit tree. I originally thought that one for each person would be enough;
As for the fruit trees, we can take them to auction and divide the spiritual stones equally;
My friend also agreed with my suggestion, but unexpectedly, he suddenly turned against me and led me into the formation he had set up, wanting to kill me so that he could seize my spiritual object."
Bai Lan said, his expression even lower.
Gu Changhuan looked at Bai Lan, who was feeling a little depressed, with an unchanged expression. The crowds of people were all coming and going for profit. Backstabbing friends and relatives because of profit was nothing new in the world of immortality, let alone Jin Yuanguo.
Such a spiritual creature.
Although Bai Lan and his good friend have known each other for decades, they are not kinship mates, nor are they life and death friends. Driven by sufficient interests, it would be too easy to betray them.
Gu Changhuan thought this, but then heard Bai Lan sigh, and then became slightly proud.
"But I'm not a vegetarian, so I quickly figured out the formation!
But after breaking the formation, I wasted a lot of real energy and was no longer able to compete with others;
That person saw my weakness, took the opportunity to defeat me, took away my storage bag containing the spiritual items, and used secret techniques to seal my true energy in an attempt to kill me.
However, I was pretty lucky. Before I was completely sealed, I broke into a fourth-level spiritual vein. To be precise, I broke into the cave of a fourth-level bear demon.
The bear demon was hibernating, and my true energy was sealed. Just like a mortal with no strength to bind a chicken, I arrived in front of the bear demon smoothly.
My good friend doesn't dare to gamble.
So, I lost my spiritual object to save my life. Although I felt a little unwilling in my heart, it was still better than death.
I originally planned to wait for my friend to stay away and find a way to break the restriction, but what I didn't expect was that one of my former friends was determined to kill me and silence me, and actually stayed in the spiritual veins and refused to leave.
Just when I thought the situation would continue to be deadlocked, the bear demon suddenly woke up for some reason and left his lair not long after.
And I'm on top of the demon's back...
so······"
Gu Changhuan nodded, this made sense.
If what Bai Lan said is true, then the spiritual objects they searched for before, as well as the Jinyuan Fruit and Jinyuan Fruit Tree, are now on his good friend.
Gu Changhuan rubbed his fingers.
There are so many spiritual creatures, it’s hard not to be tempted!
So he asked:
"I wonder who is Daoist Bai's friend, what is his name, and what is his cultivation level?"
Bai Lan was stunned for a moment, then said:
"His name is Qin Li, he is on the eighth level of the Zi Mansion.
Why, Fellow Daoist Wang wants to find him?"
Gu Changhuan nodded.
If the benefits are sufficient, he doesn't mind taking advantage of others.
Seeing Gu Changhuan admit it frankly, Bai Lan thought for a while and then asked tentatively:
"Then can I go with fellow Daoist Wang?
I don’t want the Jinyuan Fruit Tree, I just want to get back my collected spiritual objects.”
Gu Changhuan looked at him and smiled
"Is there any way for fellow Daoist Bai to break the secret technique restrictions on himself?"
Bai Lan was stunned.
There is no solution for this at the moment. If he can study it for a period of time, he will definitely be able to regain his freedom!
Bai Lan thought, then shook her head in disappointment.
"There is nothing we can do for now."
If a monk who purely practices Taoism loses his true energy, his combat effectiveness will naturally plummet.
Gu Changhuan's own strength is not afraid of fighting against the monks from the eighth floor of the Zi Mansion, not to mention that there are Mo Lin and Qing Tu who can help him.
Therefore, whether Bai Lan goes or not has little impact on Gu Changhuan.
However, thinking of the two spiritual beasts, Gu Changhuan suddenly called Qing Tu out, smiled at Bai Lan and said:
"Maybe I have a way to break this secret technique restriction, Fellow Daoist Bai, look at my fox eyes."
Bai Lan perked up and couldn't help but look at the snow-white fox in Gu Changhuan's hand. However, after seeing Qing Tu's green eyes, he suddenly seemed to have lost his soul, and his eyes lost their luster.
After a while, Gu Changhuan murmured to himself:
"This kid is telling the truth. It seems he didn't form a group with others to trick me;
But where might Qin Li be now?"
It turns out that Gu Changhuan was deceiving him just now when he said that Qing Tu might be able to break the confinement of the true energy on Bai Lan's body;
He just wanted to take the opportunity to let Qing Tu check Bai Lan's memory to see if what he said was true, so as not to be fooled.
After all, there was something strange about Bai Lan's appearance, so he had to guard against it.
Now that he was sure that what Bai Lan said was true, Gu Changhuan thought carefully for a while, then woke up Bai Lan who was still in a daze and said:
"I can release the real energy from you, but you have to help me find Qin Li."
