The ball flew into nothing, causing the beautiful woman in green gauze to freeze in silence. Her consciousness quickly swept around, and then she let out a light exclamation, because in her consciousness, there was no other cultivator here, but there seemed to be a faint fluctuation of spiritual power on the hillside below Su Hong.
This phenomenon made the beautiful woman in green gauze look suspicious, because in her perception, Su Hong was sucked over by the spiritual power below. The place where the spiritual power fluctuated below seemed to be a restriction, but she did not find any cultivator there.
"Could this be a secret place with forbidden rules? Did Su Hong accidentally trigger the restriction here while falling, and was sucked away?" The beautiful woman in green gauze paused, and thought hesitantly that this kind of thing is not impossible to happen, as remote places are often favored by cultivators.
"Could this be someone's cave? If so, the other party must have heard the previous conversation clearly. How could such an oversight occur without checking?" The beautiful woman in green gauze looked embarrassed. She had not used her spiritual sense to carefully check the surroundings just now, and she would not have thought that after chasing for several days, she would just stop and happen to appear in the range of another cultivator's cave.
Seeing that Su Hong had staggered and landed on a protruding rock on the mountainside, but still no cultivator showed up, the beautiful woman in green gauze could not help but be on full alert.
At this time, Li Yan had already used the technique of "Stealth at Night" to reach the range of the formation restriction outside the cave, and had merged with the mountain wall. It was precisely because of the assistance of the formation restriction that it was even more difficult for the beautiful woman in green gauze to see through the "Stealth at Night", and her spiritual sense only saw several layers of formation protection when penetrating the restriction, so her spiritual sense did not linger for too long, and finally her attention was focused on the cave.
Not to mention Li Yan's current use of this technique, even if he used it in the early stage of foundation building, even the Red Fire Ancestor, who was also in the Golden Core stage, could not see through it, and neither could the beautiful woman in the green gauze. So in her consciousness, there was only the fluctuation of spiritual power behind the rock where Su Hong stood, and no cultivator appeared. When she carefully searched the cave with a solemn look, her face was slightly relieved. In her consciousness, although the restrictions here were not bad, they were at most placed by foundation building cultivators, and inside the restrictions was a small cave, which was empty.
"This should be a simple cave built by a foundation-building monk. Either this person has traveled far away, or it has been abandoned." Seeing that there was nothing in the cave, the beautiful woman in green gauze judged that monks usually take everything with them when they leave the cave for a long time. There are only restrictions to protect the cave. As for whether there are high-level monks in it, her cultivation is too low to see through the other party. Just looking at the formation outside and the simplicity of the cave, it is not the work of that kind of old monster.
While the beautiful woman in green gauze was suspended in the air and observing, Su Hong had already landed halfway up the mountain. As she fell, she heard Li Yan's voice transmission, "To be honest, I know you have the Crystal Bone Water. I only want this thing and won't ask for anything else. If possible, I will help you escape once. But if you want to drag me down with you and warn the other party, and you are reluctant to give up the Crystal Bone Water, you will not only die, but also be dead. If you think clearly, stand on the rock and don't move, otherwise you will trigger the restriction. If you are poisoned, I don't have an antidote. This is true. If you agree with my suggestion, just raise your hand to signal. Otherwise, just pretend that I never said anything to you."
Li Yan said this to take advantage of the situation, but he didn't think so in his heart. Even if Su Hong didn't agree, he would still find a way to keep Su Hong. Just as the beautiful woman in green gauze said, Su Hong's things were definitely not just in the storage bag on her waist. She must have other storage space treasures on her body. However, Li Yan still felt embarrassed if he searched a young girl's body, so he still used coercion and inducement as the main method.
Su Hong, who was still falling, saw a streak of silk coming towards her. She didn't bother to reply and was very anxious. But suddenly she felt a suction force pulling her body to the side, and she barely avoided being wrapped by the green silk. She felt relieved, but then she felt tense again because she thought of Li Yan's words.
"How come this person also knows the existence of Crystal Bone Water? I have been on the run for two days. Could it be that this person is also traveling with the beautiful woman in green gauze? But it shouldn't be the case. I have been flying without any purpose for the past two days. It is impossible for this person to predict these situations in advance and set up an ambush here thousands of miles away. He is not like that woman who ambushed on the road outside Yuguan City, so there are still traces to be found." Su Hong stood on the protruding stone with confusion, her mind turning. How could Su Hong be so cunning to be able to come and go in the business world? Li Yan only said a few words, but she had already obtained a lot of information.
"No body found? This person must be a poison cultivator, and he has a cave here, so the probability of being from the sect or family is reduced by several percent, but maybe this is a temporary place for him to stay after leaving the sect. Generally speaking, the probability of him being a casual cultivator is higher. He seems to be fearless towards a Jindan stage cultivator, so his strength must be strong. He is a famous idle poison cultivator in the Pure Land Sect, and there is also a poison cultivator within tens of thousands of miles of Yuguan City. So as far as I know, there should be two people..." Su Hong's mind was racing, and she had listed two poison cultivators in her mind in just a moment. She was really smart, but no matter how clever she was, she guessed the wrong direction at the beginning. Li Yan was not a person under the jurisdiction of the Pure Land Sect.
At the same time, hearing Li Yan's question, Su Hong did not delay. Since the other party only came for the Crystal Bone Water, she was already in this situation. Secondly, it would be relatively easy for the other party to capture her. There was no need for this mysterious monk who suddenly appeared to explain it so clearly. This gave her some expectations for her fate. After standing on the rock, she raised her left hand inconspicuously and stroked her forehead, as if her body was exhausted and shaky.
Su Hong looked like this on the surface, but her mind was still turning. She would first agree to the mysterious monk. As for the matter of the crystal bone water, she would deal with it in the next step. It would be best if the mysterious monk could have a fight with the beautiful woman in green gauze. She only needed to take the opportunity to heal her wounds and then find a way to escape. The worst outcome would be suicide, but she had the ability to do that.
How could Li Yan know that he met a person with the same exquisite mind today? After he said a few words, the other party guessed his identity immediately and agreed to it, making use of the limited time. Seeing Su Hong pretending to raise her hand and touch her forehead without hesitation to indicate that she agreed to his request, he couldn't help but admire that this woman did not make any flaws even in some small details. Only then did he feel relieved, otherwise it would be difficult to kill this woman. As for whether the other party would regret it, Li Yan didn't care. If the other party really wanted to use him, then the result would definitely disappoint Su Hong, because at the moment Su Hong fell on the rock, he had been poisoned by the poison he had set in advance, and it was not as Li Yan said that random movements might trigger the ban and thus be poisoned.
Li Yan always planned things before he acted. If Su Hong knew that this mysterious monk was still plotting against her even though she had no ability to resist, she would secretly spit at Li Yan for being extremely shameless. But Li Yan still told the truth. Before he was about to take action, he quietly opened the cave restriction and placed only the "Isolation of Heaven and Earth" poison on the rock. This poison could make the Red Fire Ancestor temporarily lose the ability to control his own spiritual power, let alone Su Hong. But if Su Hong really triggered the formation that Li Yan had arranged outside the cave, Li Yan really had no antidote for the poison in the formation restriction. This was the truth.
The two of them only communicated with each other's spiritual consciousness for a short moment. In the outside world, Su Hong was falling from the sky. Under the attack of the woman in green gauze, Su Hong was sucked onto the rock. Then, his body was shaking and he stroked his forehead as if trying to wake himself up.
The beautiful woman in green gauze stood in the air and probed into the cave with her spiritual sense, but still returned with nothing. However, this sudden change made her instinctively become cautious. Since her spiritual sense had detected several times without any hindrance, the beautiful woman in green gauze did not hesitate any more. She no longer had any intention of playing cat and mouse as before, and rushed forward to pounce on Su Hong in the air.
The restrictions of the cave here are a bit strange. After she failed to capture Su Hong through the air once, her spiritual power burst out, and she arrived above Su Hong's head in the blink of an eye. The beautiful woman in green gauze protected her chest with one hand, and the other hand had turned into an illusory big hand above Su Hong's head, grabbing Su Hong's top door.
Su Hong felt the wind and snow above her head disappear, and a fierce force separated the wind and snow in the air and grabbed her. She instinctively wanted to dodge, but she couldn't even muster up the last bit of spiritual power in her body, as if she was separated from this world. This horrified her. She didn't expect that her injury had reached such a level that even her dantian was empty. She no longer felt the pricking sensation as before, and she couldn't muster any strength in her body. For a moment, her heart was in chaos, but she didn't call out. She didn't know how the mysterious monk would deal with the beautiful woman in green gauze, but if she spoke, although only for a moment, she would definitely remind the beautiful woman. She knew this.
Just when the extremely powerful energy had already touched the tips of her hair, Su Hong began to suffocate without the protection of spiritual power. Suddenly, a figure appeared beside her like a ghost, and then shot diagonally into the sky.
Su Hong felt her breathing suddenly become smoother, the surrounding snow was tearing like flying catkins, and the figure punched the big hand that was pressing down in the air. A dull sound was heard in her ear, spreading in the empty valley. The figure of the beautiful woman in green gauze standing in the air first stagnated, then uttered a muffled groan, and flew backwards. Although she flew backwards quickly, the figure was even faster. With a flash of green light under her feet, she had caught up with the beautiful woman in green gauze and came to her head.
There was another "whoosh" sound breaking through the air, and a black figure came down from top to bottom, with his right forearm raised and his elbow pointed downward, and slammed into the top of the beautiful woman's head. These movements were so fast that Su Hong just felt a flash before his eyes, to see that this man was so powerful that he could repel a Jindan cultivator with just one punch. The next attack was even more relentless, and he came directly at her close range. If he hit her hard this time, the beautiful woman's head would either explode or be hit into her neck.
The beautiful woman was really amazing. She was already extremely careful, but she still didn't expect that someone would launch a sneak attack from close range. This kind of attack is actually disadvantageous to both parties. If she was not careful and noticed, the attacker would be the first to fall into a desperate situation.
The beautiful woman's breathing was a little disordered, but she did not panic. Instead, she let out a delicate cry, spun her body sideways, and used her left hand to hold her right arm horizontally, using the force to support herself, and met the downward force of the black figure's elbow.
"Crack! Bang!" Two crisp sounds were heard in quick succession, followed by a scream from the beautiful woman. The whole person fell rapidly into the deep valley like a heavy object falling to the ground.
In a flash, the right arm of the beautiful woman in green gauze was raised at a strange and twisted angle, and was broken by the elbow of the black figure. Even her left wrist, which was supported by the black figure, hung down weakly. Although it was not broken, the wrist bone was cracked.
The black figure did not give up. After succeeding in succession, a green light flashed under his feet again, and he chased after the falling beautiful woman. In just two breaths, he was on top of the beautiful woman's head again. He was like a giant god. He suddenly raised his right foot, and stomped on the head of the beautiful woman in green gauze again while falling in mid-air with great force and might.
