Han Clan Immortals: I have a hundredfold energy-gathering bottle
Chapter 9 Assault
Many hours had passed on Mount Ruwei, but the disciples were still immersed in the imagery of their recent breakthrough, discussing among themselves.
"I never expected it to be this elder who broke through. This Elder Xue seems to be only in his fifties, yet he has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage."
"What Elder Xue? Now you have to call him Ancestor! Ancestor Xue is now a figure who is expected to reach the Purple Mansion realm. Our Little Weishan is about to rise!"
"Hehe~ Zhengqing Peak is now very powerful. It seems that there will be a great change in the sect. This is truly an opportunity for me, Lü, to rise to prominence..."
A cacophony of voices surrounded him, but Han Jieliu listened silently without uttering a word.
In fact, apart from the Xue family members, among all the disciples, I, an ordinary little cultivator, probably benefited the most.
After all, he held the jade pendant in his hand and had a "favor" from the Xue family.
"I was just daydreaming about it last time, but I never expected that this Uncle Xue would actually become a Foundation Establishment Ancestor... No wonder Junior Sister Xue hesitated for so long before giving me this jade pendant. She must have known the inside story."
The relationships between a Foundation Establishment Ancestor and a Qi Refining Elder are not comparable.
Han Jieliu recalled the scene from that day and looked up at the purple-robed elder.
The purple-robed elder's face was unreadable. He remained silent for a moment, then rang the bell again, and the noisy crowd immediately quieted down to listen to him.
"Our ancestor has completed his divine powers, the mountain closure is over, and the sect's grand formation has been opened. Disciples who wish to leave the sect should come here and hand over the Leaving Sect Token before departing."
After saying that, he ignored them, took out a spirit shuttle, and flew straight towards the sect, leaving a trail of light.
Cultivators have keen senses and hearing; even without using spiritual energy to transmit sound, they can hear clearly from this distance.
Han Jieliu had already made preparations in advance, and handed the Li Zong token to Zhou Xinquan, saying politely.
"Senior brother, please check if it is safe for you to leave."
Zhou Xinquan accepted the spirit stones quickly and smiled at Han Jieliu.
"Of course, junior brother, please proceed."
"Please go, then of course I'll go. I need to leave quickly; who knows if there are any cultivators sent to retaliate against me among the crowd behind me..."
Han Jieliu was cautious and did not use the Swiftness Talisman directly. Instead, he first enhanced it with two Lightness Talismans at the Fetal Breathing stage.
As soon as he left the sect, Han Jieliu immediately lowered his body and took out a black cloak from his storage bag to cover his face.
Although the original owner was a sect cultivator, he had also read the famous "Records of Loose Cultivators" in the cultivation world, thinking about when he might need it, and always kept these things in his storage bag.
After all, when you encounter a cultivator who has undergone a tribulation, they won't care whether you're from any sect or not.
Han Jieliu remained calm and did not head directly towards Mengtan Mountain, but instead fled eastward.
I have memorized the map of Linjiang County these past few days. To the east of Xiaowei Mountain is a vast mountainous and marshy plain, rich in resources, called Dasuyuan.
The Great Stupa is extremely deep, spanning several prefectures. It is teeming with powerful demons, and even Mengtan Mountain is just a branch extending from it. Even those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage in their sect will give this place a wide berth.
However, the surrounding area is clearly visible, with only some Qi Refining stage demon caves and beast nests, which seem to have reached some kind of deal with the surrounding sects, serving as a place for disciples to hunt demon materials.
"According to the map, there is a swamp near Xiaowei Mountain in Dasu Plain. The water is very active, and the most powerful demon in it is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. It is suitable for concealing one's aura."
As Han Jieliu was examining the map, his consciousness suddenly stirred, and he looked back and sensed something.
Then, a spirit-detecting talisman at the early stage of Qi Refining ignited in his hand; it was one of the talismans that Xue Yiqing had given him.
From the direction of Xiaowei Mountain's gate, a remarkable aura of a cultivator was rapidly approaching, heading directly from his direction.
"Was it heading towards the Great Stupa, or did it sense its own presence...?"
Once outside the sect, the cruelty of the cultivation world is immediately laid bare; robbery and murder are commonplace.
To survive, the only way is to rely on strength.
The people appearing in this place couldn't possibly be some rogue cultivator; they could only be cultivators from Xiaowei Mountain...
Han Jieliu hadn't forgotten Xue Yiqing's instructions, so he didn't dare to take them lightly. He cautiously changed direction and decided to take a detour before heading to Dasuyuan.
But he found that as he changed direction, the aura also changed direction and accelerated towards him.
Upon seeing this, Han Jieliu's expression immediately darkened, confirming the purpose of the newcomers.
"So they really came looking for me."
Han Jieliu immediately sheathed his Flying Sword to avoid excessive consumption of spiritual energy.
Since I can now observe the other person, the other person can naturally also perceive me.
Judging from the aura of this newcomer, he is probably a cultivator in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and his spiritual sense is even stronger than mine.
The cultivation system in this world is very harsh; even the difference between cultivators at a minor realm is vast.
Under normal circumstances, an ordinary mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator can deal with several early-stage Qi Refining cultivators. Perhaps only an exceptionally talented genius can achieve such a feat.
Han Jieliu never considered resisting. The original owner of this body was never good at fighting, and even if the person who came was a Qi Refining early stage cultivator, he would not underestimate him. He immediately released the Yu Jie Feng from his storage bag and placed it under his feet.
Seeing that Han Jieliu seemed to have discovered him, the cultivator behind him stopped concealing his aura, took out a small boat, put his hands behind his back, stepped onto it, and chased after Han Jieliu at full speed.
It was early spring, and the wind blowing under Han Jieliu was blowing the fine grass along the way at a fast speed.
Two auras traveled through the wilderness. The spirit boat was about the same speed as the Yu Jiefeng, which was running at full speed, so that the two maintained the same distance.
Having just traveled several miles, Han Jieliu's spiritual aperture was shattered, leaving him with little spiritual energy, and he could not maintain this state for long.
Seeing that he couldn't shake off the person, he slowed down, shouted behind him, and secretly tucked a stack of talismans into his sleeve.
"Who is this senior brother? He must also be out on a sect mission. I wonder why he keeps following me..."
A figure appeared in the distance, and Han Jieliu finally saw his face clearly, which startled him.
They really think highly of themselves, sending out someone like this...
The newcomer was dressed in a crimson robe, with a smile on his face, looking at Han Jieliu with great interest.
The original owner of this body remembered that he was a famous disciple of the Forging Flame Peak named Zhou Xuan.
The "Bright Swallowing Flame Evolution Technique" he cultivates is very powerful. Not long ago, he broke through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining and achieved good results in the sect competition.
"Junior Brother Han, why are you in such a hurry? You're traveling so fast, your spirit is running low."
Zhou Xuan spoke calmly and composedly, glancing around discreetly before continuing.
"I just saw that my junior brother's flying artifact was very peculiar, so I couldn't help but follow him to take a look."
Even a three-year-old wouldn't believe that. It's really clumsy. Zhou Xuan must be looking down on me.
Han Jieliu felt neither joy nor anger, and quickly considered a strategy to deal with the situation. While silently recovering his spiritual energy, he invoked Zheng Qingfeng as a deterrent.
"Senior Brother Zhou, please don't joke. In this desolate wilderness, you have been following me all along. Your intentions are self-evident..."
"I'm afraid that your purpose is somewhat similar to mine, but I now have some connection with Zheng Qingfeng. I hope you won't make a mistake for yourself."
Upon hearing this, a hint of apprehension flashed in Zhou Xuan's eyes, as if he had just recalled the scene of Xue Yinbai's successful Foundation Establishment, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Junior Brother Han, even if Ancestor Xue Yinbai came, he wouldn't be able to find anything in this place. Junior Brother's strength is insufficient, and he just encountered a robbery and got into trouble. What does it have to do with me?"
He shook his head and said.
"I have no grudge against my junior brother. I just want him to die knowing why. It's just that someone promised me a favor and I'm doing this for money. Please, junior brother, stop talking nonsense so you can avoid some torment..."
