"Haha, you can possess such power just by condensing the evil spirit. Erlang, Erlang, you are really worthy of being you!" Shi Yi couldn't help but be shocked by Su Rui's heroic figure in front of him, who seemed to be out of the mortal world and elegant. He couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing.
"Shitou, please stop teasing me. If I can't elevate my cultivation to the state of harmonious integration within three months, I'm afraid I'll have to walk the Yellow Springs Road again..." Su Rui replied with a wry smile. With that, he flashed, transforming into a streak of inky black light, landing steadily beside Shi Yi and the Black Water Snake leader.
This fire escape technique was something he comprehended when he was in the process of condensing the Earth's True Fire. It took shape after some deductions from a small diagram. This fire escape technique consumes the Earth's True Fire evil, and it can be flown quickly, especially in the underground wells where the fire element is rich.
"Who is this?" Su Rui turned his gaze to the leader of the Black Water Snake Taoist soldiers and asked Shi Yi.
"Oh, this is Commander Mo of the Putuo Sect. He's leading a team to garrison Black Sand Island under the orders of the Putuo Sect Master, and he's also helping me track down your whereabouts..." Even without seeing Shi Yi's expression, Su Rui knew what he was thinking—Commander Mo was probably staying here to help find him. Shi Yi's words were simply a way to make both sides sound more reconciled in front of Commander Mo.
Shi Yi then eagerly asked Su Rui about the details of his journey into the Myriad Demons Sealing Formation. Su Rui, without reservation, immediately recounted to Shi Yi and Commander Mo a brief account of what he had seen, heard, and done since entering the formation.
After finishing his story, Su Rui pulled out two fist-sized pieces of blue metal from his pocket and handed them to Shi Yi and Commander Mo respectively, saying they were gifts for them. The piece for Shi Yi was slightly larger.
Shi Yi quickly reached out and took the piece of cyan metal, examining it carefully. After just a moment, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Real magnetic gold! What a treasure!"
Commander Namo refused several times, but he couldn't resist Su Rui's enthusiasm and finally forced the gift into his arms. He had already prepared himself mentally and planned to accept the gift silently, but at this moment, he suddenly heard the words "Yuanci Zhenjin" and immediately reached into his pocket to take the item out.
"Commander Mo, what on earth do you mean? Do you really want to make things difficult for me?" Upon seeing this, Su Rui's eyes widened and he roared angrily.
"Senior Brother Su, I really didn't mean that..." Commander Mo was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He quickly shook his head and waved his hands, trying to explain clearly.
"Hmph! Since you know that I have such a precious treasure as Yuanci Real Gold, why are you still unwilling to accept the gift of covering your mouth from me? Do you think it is too little, so you want to collude with others to steal my things after you get out?" Su Rui became more and more excited as he spoke, and continued to make up stories.
Hearing this, a layer of fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on Commander Mo's forehead. He was so nervous that he was at a loss and couldn't even speak clearly: "I...I wouldn't...I would never do that!"
At this moment, Commander Mo's face was flushed, and the hand holding the Yuanci real gold began to tremble slightly, as if he had no idea how to place it.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and put away the Yuanci gold!" Su Rui's tone gradually softened. "As long as you accept this piece of Yuanci gold, we will still be good brothers!"
"Good brother..."
Commander Mo muttered something in a low voice, clearly frightened by Su Rui. After much hesitation, he finally carefully placed the Yuanci gold into his carrying case, as if it were some rare treasure.
Shi Yi, who was standing by, watched Su Rui's performance happily without saying anything.
He thought to himself: This guy hasn't changed at all since then! Even though Su Rui hadn't been as ruthless towards him and Wu Qianqian back then as he is today, that inner banditry remained the same. Recalling the difficult times they'd shared in Tongqu County, Shi Yi couldn't help but feel a sense of "time is unforgiving."
Afterwards, Su Rui asked about what happened in the outside world after he entered the formation. Shi Yi and Commander Mo told him how the Putuo Sect used the four sacred beasts to break through the forbidden formation of thousands of ghosts and demons, and forced away the True Lord of White Bones and the Five Ghost Kings. After hearing this, Su Rui couldn't help but be shocked by the strength of the Putuo Sect.
Then the three of them came out of the underground well. When Su Rui saw the Black Sand Island outside, which had become unrecognizable, he thought that the White Bone God and the Five Ghost Kings might still be hiding in some corner of the South China Sea, and he couldn't help but have a headache.
Now, there are only a few days left before the opening of Langya Immortal Mansion, and Su Rui can't help feeling a little anxious.
After discussing with Shi Yi, the two decided to immediately march towards Luoshengou, the location of the Langya Immortal Residence. Commander Mo stated that according to the order left by the Sect Master, their small group of soldiers must also return to Putuo Sect immediately.
So the two sides parted ways, and Su Rui and Shi Yi boarded the first-level sea loach boat that Su Rui had recently refined and headed straight for Luoshengou.
The two sailed all the way, without a single sleep or rest for two days and nights, until they finally reached the waters near Luoshengou. The journey was smooth and uneventful, but along the way, two blind sea monsters attempted to attack them. The outcome, of course, was self-evident: these two unlucky creatures eventually became their meal, a small solace to their already hungry stomachs.
