Chapter 497 Inner Enclosure of the Gale
After entering the middle of the polar gale belt, Yunxi clearly felt that it was not as easy as before, but she still moved forward at a leisurely pace, sensing the polar gale as she went. This was also a kind of wind spirit power, but it was more violent and uncontrollable. She tried to absorb a wisp of it into her body.

The polar gale that entered her body was like discovering a new continent, rampaging through Yunxi's meridians, trying to release its violent emotions.

Yunxi enveloped the wisp of polar gale with her own wind spirit power, and then circulated it within her body along the path of the "Thousand Shadows Supporting the Wind" technique. Before she had even completed one cycle, the gale became docile and perfectly merged into the wind spirit power within her body.

After refining the wisp of polar gale, Yun Xi did not rush to continue absorbing the polar gale. Instead, she continued to move forward. Even though she needed to use the polar gale to temper her body, she had to ensure her own safety. Otherwise, she could easily get injured in such a dangerous environment.

Just then, a cultivator dressed in the robes of the Extreme Cold Sect, covered in blood, charged towards her against the fierce wind.

Yunxi's eyes flickered, unable to determine the other party's true identity for the moment. Dian Dian was currently in a deep sleep during her advancement and could not help her identify whether the cultivator had come into contact with evil cultivators, or even whether he had been possessed by an evil spirit.

Since the battle in the Sealed Land, her spirit pets have mostly entered a state of rest and recuperation. Dian Dian persisted until the very end but had to fall into a deep sleep, Fei Xia was nurturing offspring, and Cong Shan was also seriously injured in the great battle in the Sealed Land and fell into a deep sleep, which has not yet been awakened. She sent it back to her space to recuperate.

However, thinking of the little panda Lili who was idly munching on grass in the space, she decided to ask her to help her take a look at the male cultivator in front of her. Lili's eyes were very special; she could see things that others couldn't.

Yunxi entered the space with her divine sense, communicated with Lili, and then brought Lili out of the space.

Li Li shrunk in size and perched on Yun Xi's shoulder. Her dark, grape-like eyes looked at the male cultivator who was stumbling towards them. After a moment, she transmitted her voice:
“Ranxi, there are two souls in his body. One emits a normal white light, but it has fallen into a deep sleep. The other emits that dark gray light, just like those black-robed cultivators who entered our dwelling secret realm before. Now the latter is controlling that body.”

Yunxi nodded in understanding. It seemed that the evil cultivator had become smarter and had not completely devoured the original body's soul. He had only temporarily put the original body's soul into a slumber and was controlling his body to get closer to her. She just didn't know what the other party wanted to do.

"Thank you, I'll take you back to your space."

Yunxi said after thanking him.

Lili twitched her black ears and said:

"I'd better stay outside and help you. It would be dangerous here if I couldn't tell friend from foe."

It had already sensed the raging, violent winds around it, but it was only because it was under Ranxi's umbrella that it was not affected.

"it is good."

Yunxi readily agreed. Since there was a way to make things easier for herself, why not?
As Lili crawled into the spirit beast pouch, the male cultivator rushed to Yunxi's side. Yunxi coughed up a mouthful of blood, barely managing to stay awake, and said:
"Fellow Daoist, save me!"

Yunxi twirled the Nine Netherworld Dragon Umbrella in her hand, causing the black glaze to expand its protective range, enveloping the male cultivator as well, before speaking:

"Fellow Daoist of the Extreme Cold Sect, how did you get so badly injured?"

The male cultivator lay on the ground for a while before raising his head and saying:

"Fellow Daoist, I have been ambushed."

"Oh? Why?"

The male cultivator said angrily:

"My teammates and I found the Wind Spirit Orb in the middle of the area. After we trapped it together, he attacked me from behind, trying to take the Wind Spirit Orb for himself."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi's eyes flashed. She guessed that the evil cultivators were using this method to lure cultivators who entered the middle of the polar gale belt into a trap that had been set up in advance. The cultivators who could enter the middle were not weak. If they were to fight in such a harsh environment, the evil cultivators would not be 100% confident of defeating their opponents, so they resorted to underhanded tactics.

Therefore, Yunxi cooperated by showing an interested expression and asking:
"In that case, I'll send you out first, and you can go back to your sect to ask for help."

The male cultivator shook his head and said:
“Fellow Daoist, I am not reconciled. I was the one who discovered the Wind Spirit Pearl first, and I put in the most effort to trap it. Even if I go out now to seek help from my fellow disciples, he may have already left with the Wind Spirit Pearl.”

That Wind Spirit Pearl will definitely help him advance to the Nascent Soul stage; I'm not reconciled."

By the end, the male cultivator's teeth were grinding together. Yunxi continued:

"I understand. So, what do you want me to do?"

The male cultivator glanced at Yun Xi and said:

"As long as you help me kill that cultivator, the Wind Spirit Pearl is yours. I will never fight you for it. I swear that."

Yunxi said quite bluntly:
"This is our first meeting, and I don't know if what you're saying is true or false. The Wind Spirit Orb isn't in your hands. I'll find him, kill him, and the Wind Spirit Orb will still be mine. There's no need for me to cooperate with you."

The male cultivator said:
“Fellow Daoist is right, but the magic weapon that traps the Wind Spirit Pearl is mine. Only I can open it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be chasing me so relentlessly. If you don’t help me, I’ll just self-destruct the magic weapon before I die, and no one will be able to get the Wind Spirit Pearl.”

After hearing this, Yunxi realized that the evil cultivator's plan was quite meticulous. As long as she wanted the Wind Spirit Pearl, she would definitely be led by the nose by the other party.

The male cultivator seemed to sense Yunxi's hesitation and immediately made a Heavenly Oath:

"Feng Yan hereby swears an oath to the Heavenly Dao that there is not a single lie about what he said about the Wind Spirit Pearl. If there is any falsehood in what he said, may I die immediately in this Gale Belt."

Once the laws of Heaven were applied, the oath was established.

Li Li, however, transmitted her voice to Yun Xi:
"The power of the laws has landed on the sleeping soul."

Although Lili hid in the spirit beast pouch, Yunxi did not seal it. Lili saw everything that happened outside and immediately informed Yunxi.

Yunxi narrowed her eyes and said:

"It seems the Wind Spirit Pearl he mentioned doesn't exist. He just said that to lure me into a trap?"

After thinking for a moment, Lili replied:

"That's not necessarily true. If you want to verify its authenticity, take him into the gale and see if the laws of heaven and earth will kill that soul. We'll know once we try."

"Wouldn't that be helping the evil spirits?"

"We should at least give it a try."

Yunxi didn't want to harm the innocent, but there was really no better way at the moment. She wanted to enter the trap set by the evil cultivators to see if she could rescue the captured cultivators, so she had no choice but to go with the flow.

Seeing that Yunxi hadn't taken any action, the male cultivator was about to try to persuade her again when Yunxi spoke up:

"Since that's the case, then you can lead the way!"

The male cultivator who identified himself as Feng Yan immediately cupped his hands and said:

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. I will certainly not go back on my word."

Then he pointed in a direction.

Yunxi gestured for Feng Yan to go first. Knowing what Yunxi wanted to verify, he stepped out of the protective range of the Nether Dragon Umbrella and into the gale.

Lili's eyes remained fixed on the male cultivator's retreating figure. After he entered the bone-scraping gale, it transmitted its voice to Yunxi:
"Ranxi, the original body's soul was not destroyed, so the Wind Spirit Orb should still exist."
