Chapter 1041 Playing Hard to Get

About half a quarter of an hour later, a group of people rushed up on the mountain road noisily.

Among them, Yu Kuohai of Lingxiao Sect was the one who walked in the forefront, Elder Yang of Lieyang City and Master Fu of Qingsuo Valley were a little behind him, and the other three sects followed behind them.

"Hmph, don't let me meet that bastard who shovels the ground! Otherwise, I will definitely tear him apart, and then shatter his bones into ashes. I have never encountered such a ruthless person in all these years." Yang The elder was still angry, blowing his beard and staring as he walked.

"Elder Yang, please calm down first. At that time, the secret realm opened, we all came in together, and we also searched according to the areas divided by their Tianshui Sect and Tongtian Sword Sect. Normally, no one should be able to get there first." Yu Kuohai pondered said.

"What do you mean...you mean it's the work of those two factions?" Elder Yang said in a daze.

"Secret treasures are in front of you, people's hearts are unpredictable, and anything can happen. Maybe when they stopped us to set rules for everyone, they had already secretly sent people to collect treasures." Fu Guzhu pondered for a moment, then whispered.

As soon as he said this, the three of them muttered at the same time, if it was really the fault of those two sects, would they really have the means to challenge them?

"If we want to go deep into the secret realm next, it's hard to guarantee that we won't be tricked by them again. What countermeasures do you have?" Yu Kuohai asked after a moment of silence.

Elder Yang and Guzhu Fu looked at each other, neither of them opened their mouths.

"As the saying goes, a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake. We are considered to be a local sect here, but it is hard to be squeezed like this by others. It will not sound good if it is spread in the future..." Yu Kuohai sighed.

"Now we can only take one step at a time. When we get there, be more careful. If you can win a chance, fight for it. If you can't win it, try not to be used for nothing." Elder Yang shook his head, so Said.

"That's right, we can only compete if we hold a group together." Lord Fu sighed and said.

While the few people were talking, they suddenly heard a burst of noise from the forest in front of them.

Immediately afterwards, smoke and dust were seen everywhere in the forest, as if wild animals were running wildly.

"How is this going……"

While Yu Kuohai was wondering, he saw a thick and strong middle-aged man in the forest, his clothes were torn, and he was running out in a panic. Behind him was a metal beast that looked like a wild boar but was covered in gold. .

This beast is more than ten feet tall, and its golden hair stands upright like steel needles. There are two extremely sharp golden fangs on its mouth, which bend upwards like two flying halberds.

The man in front was exhausted, but the metal beast behind him was chasing him happily.

Seeing so many people in front of him, the man immediately shouted as if he had grasped a life-saving straw:

"Fellow daoist, help me, fellow daoist, save me..."

Before everyone understood the situation, the middle-aged man had already rushed towards him. When he was approaching, he jumped in the air and flew past the heads of everyone. down.

The metal beast chased after him, but naturally ignored it, and rushed towards Yu Kuohai and the others.

Lingxiaomen and the others reacted first, pulled out their magic weapons one after another, and killed the huge metal beast that looked like a wild boar.

The people in Lieguang City and Qingsuo Valley were a little slower, and they all rushed forward one after another.

It's not that they are old-fashioned and willing to draw their swords to help, but because this metal beast is the pure metal vitality condensed between heaven and earth, and the condensed beast core in the body will have some metal law power, which is considered a good treasure.

"Whoever gives this beast a fatal blow will get the beast core." Yu Kuohai shouted loudly.

The rest of the people had no voice of objection, and stepped up their attacks on the metal beast.

The strength of this beast was not too strong, at best it was equivalent to the combat power of a middle-stage Golden Immortal cultivator, even compared to the two giant tiger-shaped metal beasts that Han Li encountered first, it was still inferior.

Under the siege of everyone, it didn't take long before the Elder Yang sneaked around the back of his neck and attacked him. A flame knife pierced his head, and his beast core was naturally taken into his sleeve.

Although the body of the metal beast does not have the power of law, it is still a pretty good refining material, and it was smashed by everyone.

When all the dust settled, Yu Kuohai and the others turned their heads to look at the person who was flying away, but saw a flash of light on his body, and he was about to fly away.

"Where are you going?" Yu Kuohai shouted loudly.

With a flick of his wrist, a long black whip protruded out like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, immediately entangled the middle-aged man, pulled him back, and fell to his feet .

"This guy is a bit unfamiliar. No matter before or after entering the secret realm, I don't seem to have seen him in any sect." Guzhu Fu stared at the middle-aged man for a long time, and said hesitantly.

"I also looked at the face, and it really doesn't look like a member of a major sect." Elder Yang also nodded and said.

"This is easy to handle. After searching the soul, we will know everything." Yu Kuohai smiled with some malicious intentions.

"Fellow Daoist, I have something to say, something to say..." the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted.

"Stop talking nonsense, maybe this guy is that shameless land digger!" Ling Xiaozong shouted again.

"This person's origin is unknown, and it's not impossible..." Elder Yang said after a moment of pondering.

When everyone heard the words, they echoed one after another, shouting to search for the soul.

Yu Kuohai glanced at the man's eyebrows that were too wide, and felt that this man looked a little dull, not like that kind of cunning person, but just in case, he still planned to search his soul for future reference. Just in case.

Naturally, it was none other than Han Li who had changed his figure and put on a mask.

Earlier, when he noticed that this group of people was approaching, he had a temporary idea to sneak in among them and find out some useful information, so he specifically went to find the metal beast and lured it to chase and kill him to come here.

However, just when he was about to reach out his hand, he saw a golden light flashing on the man's body, and the black long whip wrapped around his body suddenly loosened, and it fell off by itself, and he turned over and stood up.

"Fellow Daoist, don't blame me, Shi Mu, I'm not some villain." Han Li clasped his fists at the crowd and said with a naive smile.

Seeing that he had easily escaped from Yu Kuohai's restraint, everyone looked surprised, and each of them took up their weapons and surrounded Han Li.

Seeing this, Han Li hurriedly pinched the magic formula and cast a curse to escape, explaining:

"I'm not good at the way, and I know these heretical gadgets. I hope you can't blame me. Where are you at this time?"

Yu Kuohai and the others were a little dumbfounded when he asked him such a question.

"You don't know where this is?" Yu Kuohai asked with his eyes downcast.

"To be honest, I was chasing a strange beast in the mountains and forests before I went down, but somehow I fell into a weird mountain depression. It seemed to be open, but it seemed to be trapped in a ghost hitting a wall. I walked around in circles. I don’t want to go out. Fortunately, I still have some ways to break through the barriers and release the ban. I finally broke through the maze and ended up here. Before I walked for a long time, I met the metal beast and was chased all the way to escape here. "Han Li pretended to be terrified and explained.

"Empty words, we can't believe it. There was a villain before us who seized many of our treasures and elixir before us. We suspect that you are that person. If you want to prove your innocence, hand over your magical artifact to Come out, let us check it." Yu Kuohai sneered and said.

"Isn't this embarrassing for you all, how can you just show people the magical artifact..." Han Li shrank his neck subconsciously, and argued.

"I'm afraid you don't have a choice, Fellow Daoist." Elder Yang also said coldly.

Han Li looked at the people who were getting closer and closer, with hesitation and fear on his face.

After a long time, he finally sighed and said with some helplessness: "That's all, please let me go after you check it out."

While speaking, he took off a storage ring that he had already left in his hand, and handed it over.

Yu Kuohai took it into his hands, looked at it with his spiritual sense for a moment, frowned slightly, and handed it over to Elder Yang.

After the latter inspected it, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and handed it to Master Fu.

"You are also a Golden Immortal after all, although you are only at the initial stage of cultivation, how come you are so poor?" Fu Guzhu couldn't help but ask.

"It's a joke for you all... Loose cultivation in the mountains in the lower district is naturally no better than being under the care of the sect. It is really not easy to obtain cultivation resources. How can you save your family fortune?" Han Li squeezed out a wry smile and said with a sigh .

"It seems that he is really a casual cultivator who broke in out of nowhere..." Guzhu Fu threw back the storage ring and said.

Han Li caught it in a hurry, and put it on his hand with a silly smile on his face.

"Since fellow daoists still have important matters to attend to, I won't delay you all, so I will leave." Han Li bowed his waist and stepped back as he spoke.

"Friend Daoist Shi, wait a moment..." Yu Kuohai said suddenly.

"Fellow Daoist, what other orders do you have?" Han Li was startled immediately, pretending to be puzzled.

"Fellow Daoist Shi said earlier that he knows some spells that can break barriers and release bans. I don't know what he said, but is it true?" Yu Kuohai asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Han Li immediately pretended to be complacent, and replied, "I'm not boasting. Although my level of cultivation is mediocre, I still have some ability to break through barriers and find my way..."

"But compared to you guys, it's not worth mentioning. It's not worth mentioning..." Halfway through the speech, he seemed to know that he had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly explained.

"Fellow Daoist Yu, why are you asking this at this time?" Elder Yang saw something interesting, and asked via voice transmission.

"Since the Tianshui Sect and the Tongtian Sword Sect want to use us as cannon fodder, why don't we also find another cannon fodder to stand in front of us? Isn't it suitable for this person to come to our door and claim to be good at breaking restrictions?" said Yu Kuohai The color did not change, but it also echoed through sound transmission.
