Li Yan seemed to be prepared. He smiled slightly and spoke loudly.
"I have been thinking about this question too. Maybe we need to test it before we can confirm it. I think the key is the blue diamond crystal.
As you have seen before, the two foundation-building monks were still holding blue diamond crystals when they died. This may indicate that the way for the two sects to join forces requires the constant support of blue diamond crystals.
It may be that the blue diamond crystal has some kind of power that deceives the rules in the yellow sphere. Once it is put away, it will lose its effect. Therefore, the key is the blue diamond crystal. The answer to the question raised by Senior Sister should be in it, but this requires testing!"
Having said that, Li Yan looked at Gong Chenying.
Gong Chenying understood very well that Li Yan needed time, and time was extremely precious to them now. Giving Li Yan time would mean giving up the opportunity to reach the place ten miles ahead of schedule and risking everyone's lives.
Gritting his teeth, Gong Chenying stared at Li Yan and spoke seriously, word by word.
"Including the time just now, one hour!"
For the first time, Li Yan felt Gong Chenying so serious, and also felt her anxiety. He also stared at the beautiful Sixth Senior Sister and spoke seriously.
"I still need a few things, which are the storage bags you collected from all the Foundation Establishment cultivators."
"good!"
Gong Chenying did not hesitate. With a wave of his hand, four storage bags flew towards Li Yan.
The conversation between the two of them was extremely fast and they made a decision in just a short time. Many people were still thinking about what Li Yan said.
Li Yan had already turned around and walked to the side, then sat down cross-legged.
"Recover your mana!"
Gong Chenying looked at Li Yan's back and left a word.
After hearing this, some people hesitated for a moment and then sat cross-legged in the snow. Although they didn't consume much energy in the previous level, they had nothing to do, so some people really recovered their magic power.
Some people were sitting in the snow thinking about things, while others were standing a few feet away from Li Yan to see what he was doing.
Li Yan reached out and took a storage bag, and scanned it with his spiritual sense. The spiritual sense on the storage bags had already eliminated the original spiritual sense marks on them when Gong Chenying threw them over.
This does not mean that Gong Chenying's spiritual consciousness is stronger than those three people and one demon, but that they are all dead. For cultivators of the same level, it is very easy to remove their spiritual consciousness.
Li Yan was stunned when he took a quick look with his spiritual sense. The storage bag of the foundation-building cultivator was truly amazing. The internal space was at least ten times larger than his own storage bag. The things inside made him greedy.
In the first storage bag he picked up, there were nearly a thousand low-level spirit stones alone. In a corner, there were actually three mid-level spirit stones. They were filled with vigorous spiritual energy, and when Li Yan's spiritual sense touched them, he felt like moaning.
Li Yanqiang suppressed the greed in his heart. He couldn't set his sights directly on these storage bags. He had to return them to Gong Chenying later.
His spiritual sense swept through them quickly with his mind agitated. There was not even a low-level spiritual weapon inside, but there were more than a dozen mid-to-high-level spiritual weapons and treasures. They were obviously not ordinary items. There was also a magical flying sword whose grade Li Yan could not tell, and a green gourd.
After seeing these things, Li Yan thought to himself.
"This is the storage bag of the Ten-Step Academy swordsman!"
Li Yan's judgment was not based on the flying sword magic weapon whose grade he could not tell, but on the special marks of Shibuyuan on some other ornaments.
This is an inner sword cultivator. All his cultivation is in the flying sword in the Niwan Palace. When he dies, the Niwan Palace shatters and the sword and the Niwan Palace are destroyed together. The flying sword magic weapon in the storage bag is just his spare flying sword.
After taking a look at the things here, Li Yan no longer hesitated. After putting down this storage bag, he quickly picked up another one...
Soon, Li Yan checked the items in the four storage bags. At this time, Li Yan's eyes lit up. He always believed that the blue diamond crystal was the biggest doubt among the three sects. In addition, it might be that other magic weapons were used to control all the weird things.
No matter which one it is, there is a prerequisite, that is, all parties must hold the same item, and the item must either look the same or have the same aura. Obviously, the blue diamond crystal is the only item that meets the requirements.
The best way for Li Yan to confirm is to check the storage bag of the foundation-building cultivator. This method of control is only mastered by the foundation-building cultivator.
As for the Qi Condensation cultivators, Li Yan also collected some storage bags in the sphere. He had checked them at that time, but he did not find anything too suspicious. To put it bluntly, there were no common items.
After checking the storage bags of these foundation-building monks, Li Yan found that three of them contained a green gourd. These three storage bags came from the Pure Land Sect, the Taixuan Sect and the Shibuyuan respectively. The one without the green gourd was exactly the storage bag of the second-level monster.
Li Yan put the storage bag of the second-level monster aside, and then picked up the other three storage bags one by one. During the communication with his spiritual consciousness, lights flashed one after another, and three green gourds appeared on the snow in front of him.
A few feet away, some monks who were observing this place couldn't help but focus their gazes and saw three almost identical green gourds. They were always paying attention to this place, and when they saw the scene in front of them, their eyes lit up.
They are not stupid. The fact that similar things appear in the storage bags of three different sects has a lot of significance.
Gong Chenying had also been staring at this side. After seeing this scene, she was also stunned. Since she collected these storage bags, she had no time to check them.
All the way under the oppression of the huge black shadow, she could only pass the levels, pass the levels, and pass the levels again. She didn't expect that she had neglected such an important thing, but she didn't go forward to disturb Li Yan.
Li Yan picked up a green gourd and looked at it carefully. He didn't find anything wrong. After carefully releasing his spiritual sense, he probed into the surface of the gourd. After a moment, his expression relaxed.
Then he waved his hand, and the lid on the gourd flew off. Li Yan once again carefully released his spiritual sense to probe into the gourd. After a while, a strange look appeared on his face, but he waved his hand again and covered the gourd again.
As for the rest, he picked up the other two green gourds on the ground one by one, wrapped his hands with spiritual power each time, stared at them for a while, and then carefully extended his spiritual sense to scan the surface of the gourd.
Only after confirmation will he open the gourd. Finally, he carefully releases his spiritual sense to explore the gourd, and every step is done with extreme caution.
When he finished exploring the three green gourds, the strange look on his face became even more intense. He tilted his head and thought for a while, then he slapped his waist with his hand. With a flash of light, two blue diamond crystals appeared in front of him, floating in the air.
Li Yan reached out and took a blue diamond crystal and placed it in front of his eyes. The core of this blue diamond crystal was white. If Li Yan remembered correctly, when Wang Lang from the Ten-Step Courtyard entered the passage, he chose a blue diamond crystal with a white core. This blue diamond crystal should be held by a cultivator from the Ten-Step Courtyard.
Li Yan did not inject spiritual power this time. In fact, he also wanted to test whether after injecting spiritual power again, he could feedback more spiritual power to him like the previous black core blue diamond crystal, so that he could use it to break through and advance again.
But this was not the time for him to act recklessly. Before he could think, he had already released his spiritual sense, sweeping towards the blue diamond crystal in his hand.
This is a colorful space, completely different from the pure blue seen from the outside. There are five areas of white, black, green, red and yellow. The five areas are large and small, and are emitting astonishingly rich spiritual energy.
The five areas are distributed in a circle, and in the middle of the circle there is a huge ball of white light.
Even though Li Yan's spiritual consciousness was far away from the ball of light, he could still feel the pure spiritual energy. The white ball of light was constantly emitting streams of rich spiritual energy and rushing towards the surroundings.
However, after being blocked by the colorful light balls around them, the spiritual energy could no longer spread, causing layers of spiritual energy frenzy.
Li Yan's spiritual consciousness was in the colorful space, like a fish swimming into water, quickly approaching the white light ball in the center. When his spiritual consciousness finally stopped outside the white light ball, the white light ball seemed to sense the arrival of his spiritual consciousness, and the surging spiritual energy suddenly subsided and calmed down.
A gentle force brushed towards Li Yan's consciousness. Seeing this, Li Yan was not panicked.
Before, he had already detected the blue diamond crystal inside the sphere. Although it was in a hurry at that time, there was no danger. The moment that gentle force came into contact with Li Yan's consciousness, Li Yan's consciousness instantly entered the white light ball.
At this moment, his consciousness was more relaxed and comfortable, and from deeper within the white light ball, a force faintly came, as if someone was constantly calling him, and Li Yan could not sense any sense of danger at all.
After a brief pause, Li Yan's consciousness flew directly into the depths of the white light ball. Just after his consciousness advanced a certain distance, a powerful suction force instantly enveloped him.
Li Yan only felt that his spiritual consciousness was firmly controlled by the white ball of light in an instant. If something unexpected happened at this moment, it would be too late for him to escape, unless he gave up this wisp of spiritual consciousness and damaged his sea of consciousness.
