Li Zhiming walked around the bound witch and examined her carefully.

"The demon girl of the Hehuan Sect is known to be peerless in beauty, and is no less beautiful than Senior Sister Mingzhu."

Li Zhiming stroked his chin and whispered to himself.

The Hehuan Sect is located deep in the Longji Mountains in the southern part of the Dongxuan Region.

This sect is famous for its women.

Female disciples make up the majority of the sect's disciples, and are good at unorthodox techniques such as furnace and cauldron techniques and dual cultivation techniques, which are shameful to the righteous.

On the surface, the Eastern Xuan Region of Yingzhou is headed by five major sects.

In fact, there are more than a handful of forces that are as powerful as the five major sects.

And the Hehuan Sect is one of them.

The feud between the Hehuan Sect and the five major sects has lasted for thousands of years, and until now, the two sides are still incompatible.

The witch of Hehuan Sect is named Ji Linger.

She was known as a rare genius in a century and was named the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect as soon as she entered the sect to practice.

Three years ago, Li Zhiming was ordered to go to Longji Mountain to carry out a mission.

During that mission, their Zhenyuan Sect's team had a conflict with the Hehuan Sect.

The person leading the team at that time was the enchantress Ji Ling'er from the Hehuan Sect.

However, at that time, Li Zhiming was just an ordinary disciple of the inner sect, standing behind his senior sisters and brothers like a minion.

That time, he only saw Ji Ling'er from a distance.

All I can say is that this woman's appearance, temperament and strength are all stunning!

It’s a pity that the once arrogant and peerless enchantress Ji Ling’er is now a cold corpse.

Li Zhiming came in front of the witch and pressed his fingers on the top of her head.

The true energy turned into thousands of threads and flowed into his body.

The witch's body was badly broken, her meridians and dantian were in a state of ruin, without any sign of life at all.

Just as Elder Qin said, Ji Ling'er of the Hehuan Sect is dead and is now a corpse.

Li Zhiming reached out and lifted Ji Ling'er's chin, pushing away the long hair covering her face.

This is a stunning face with perfect facial features without any flaws.

Even though Ji Ling'er was just a corpse now, her face was pale and even had bluish-white corpse spots.

But the beautiful contours of that face are still moving.

Three years ago, Ji Ling'er was already a seventh-rank warrior.

Ji Ling'er is now at least a fifth-rank or even fourth-rank warrior!

Being locked up on the fourth floor is really unfair to her.

Li Zhiming opened Ji Linger's handcuffs and leg irons, and her body fell powerlessly to the ground.

Li Zhiming spread out the cool mat and put Ji Ling'er on it.

Li Zhiming helped the evil woman to tidy up her appearance and touched the corpse at the same time.

After all, this evil woman is the saint of the Hehuan Sect, and who knows, she might have some treasures hidden on her body.

Li Zhiming started from the top of the witch's head. He grabbed Ji Ling'er's skull with his powerful palm and rubbed it with his fingers. He carefully examined Ji Ling'er's body, not wanting to ignore even a single millimeter.

From the skull to the face, to the slender neck, and then to the more private area.

When he was still practicing in the inner sect, he followed a senior brother out for training and entered the ruins.

Several mummies were found in the ruins.

The senior brother at that time used this method to search the corpse and found many treasures on it.

However, Li Zhiming did not have high expectations.

Even if Ji Ling'er really has any treasures on her, they are basically in storage magic devices.

The storage magic device should have been taken away by the elders.

Li Zhiming's palm reached Ji Ling'er's snow-white chest and then stopped.

Touching it further would be a bit perverted. We should still respect the corpse.

Li Zhiming walked around the tall breasts and placed his hand on the witch's abdomen, rubbing it slowly to see if there was anything hidden in the witch's body.

When Li Zhiming's hand reached the belly button of the witch, he suddenly realized something.

"Where's the system? Where's the reward for collecting corpses?"

Li Zhiming frowned slightly.

"Collect the corpses, I want the corpse collection reward!"

Li Zhiming called out the system.

[The corpse is being collected, but it has failed. 】

【warn!】

【warn!】

"The corpse collection failed?"

"What's the meaning?"

Li Zhiming looked puzzled. He looked at the huge word "Wake Up" floating above his head and suddenly realized something.

"wrong!"

Li Zhiming's expression suddenly became solemn.

He hurriedly pulled his hand back, but found that his right hand seemed to be tightly gripped by a pair of pliers.

Even though he tried his best, he couldn't move.

"You bastard, where are you touching?!"

An extremely pleasant but unusually cold voice sounded in Li Zhiming's ears.

And the evil woman Ji Ling'er lying on the mat actually opened her eyes!

Li Zhiming's face changed drastically, as if a thorn was on his back, and a chill surged from the soles of his feet to his heart.

No wonder my corpse collection system has not responded.

It turns out this guy is not dead at all!

Li Zhiming had no time to think about how Ji Linger faked her death to deceive Elder Qin and others. He now had only one thought, "escape"!

"You want to run, can you run?"

Ji Ling'er's fluffy long hair seemed to have life and became smooth on its own.

His beautiful face slowly regained its color, and his pale lips also turned rosy.

At the same time, a ghostly smile appeared on her face, coupled with her amber eyes and blood-red dress, there was an indescribable sense of charm.

"Let me go!" Li Zhiming shouted coldly!

"If you dare to offend this Saint, leave your hand alone."

Although Ji Linger's palms were slender, they were extremely powerful, making it impossible for Li Zhiming to break free, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"You forced me to do that!"

Li Zhiming's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Ji Linger's soft flesh on her lower abdomen with his palm.

"You bastard, where are you putting your hands?"

"Haha, I can touch wherever I want!"

Li Zhiming exerted a little force with his palm and moved it upwards, about to touch the mysterious area.

Ji Ling'er looked embarrassed.

Li Zhiming could clearly feel that Ji Ling'er's power was weakening, and then suddenly increased after a moment.

It is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, extremely unstable.

Li Zhiming seized the opportunity, and when Ji Ling'er's palm strength weakened, he pulled it out suddenly and took two steps back.

"You can't get away!"

Ji Ling'er sat up, but her movements were very stiff, as if she had drunk too much.

"There's something wrong with her!"

Li Zhiming noticed something wrong with Ji Linger's body.

She doesn't seem to have full control over her powers yet.

"Oh no, the effect of the Absolute Breath Pill hasn't completely dissipated yet, my body is a little stiff!"

Ji Ling'er sat up with difficulty. She changed her palms, made hand gestures and practiced internal energy, madly driving the internal Qi in an attempt to expel all the remaining effects of the medicine from her body!

"You look familiar, I think I've seen you somewhere before!"

Ji Ling'er stared at Li Zhiming and felt that the face and eyes seemed familiar, as if they had met each other once before.

Of course, Ji Linger's original intention was not to chat with Li Zhiming.

She was just delaying time. Once her body recovered, she could defeat the opponent in an instant, and then sneak to the tenth floor of Xuyuan without anyone noticing, and create some chaos in Xuyuan Prison.

She can take advantage of the chaos and use the sect's inherited magical instruments to rescue the ancestor of the Hehuan Sect!

"You are right. I met you once in Longji Mountain three years ago." Li Zhiming slowly approached Ji Ling'er.

"I see. Tell me your name. I will not kill nameless people."

When Ji Ling'er saw Li Zhiming approaching, she knew that he had noticed something wrong with her body.

But she can't be impatient, three minutes, just wait three more minutes!

"I'm Li Zhiming, remember this, I'm going to kill you!"

"Li Zhiming?!"

"Haha, your Zhenyuan Sect had a message saying that they had captured a direct disciple of the inner sect who was colluding with the demons. It turned out to be you!"

"From the way you look, you must have been framed, right?"

"This is what you call a prestigious sect. The intensity of the intrigue among the disciples is a hundred times more intense than that of our Hehuan Sect."

"And your sect's actions are even more chilling. They directly abolished your cultivation and demoted you to a jailer in Xuyuan Prison."

"You can cultivate to the seventh level again in this dark abyss, which shows how strong your talent is."

"Instead of staying in this dark cell, it is better to leave Zhenyuan Sect and join our Hehuan Sect."

"Join our Hehuan Sect. Just tell us what cultivation resources you need. We will do our best to meet your needs."

"You can learn whichever of the sect's inherited martial arts, the powerful furnace and cauldron techniques, and the dual cultivation techniques you want to learn."

"Of course, there are plenty of women for you to choose from!"

Ji Ling'er replied, her tone full of temptation.

Li Zhiming looked at the woman in front of him. She was completely different from before.

The previous appearance was that of a real corpse, but now Ji Linger's complexion has recovered and her innate charm is gradually revealed.

However, now is not the time to admire beauty.

The other party is the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect, who has a high level of cultivation and many hidden cards.

He didn't dare to act rashly and simply crushed the jade token in his hand.

This is the jade token given to me by Elder Qin. If anything happens, you can just crush the token and the nearby elders will come as soon as possible.

"I can choose any woman, so can I choose you?"

Li Zhiming slowly approached Ji Ling'er, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an evil smile.

"……?"

Ji Ling'er frowned.

It’s so hateful. Li Zhiming actually dared to tease me. He really doesn’t know how to live or die.

"Li Zhiming, this lady sincerely invites you to join the Hehuan Sect, please don't be ungrateful!" Ji Ling'er replied coldly.

"Witch, don't waste your energy. I know you are stalling for time."

"But you have to understand, this is Xuyuan Prison. No matter how long you delay, you can't escape!" Li Zhiming reminded.

"Haha, can't run away?"

"Since I dare to come in, there are plenty of ways to leave this place!"

Ji Ling'er replied coldly. She continued to stimulate the internal Qi in her body, and the remaining medicinal power had been completely eliminated.

"How shameless!"

Li Zhiming sneered.

It’s not that he looks down on Ji Ling’er.

Let alone her, even a super expert who has reached the third level may not dare to say that he can escape from Xuyuan Prison. "

"Haha, you'll know when you wait and see."

"Wait and see, do you think I'm stupid?"

Li Zhiming sneered, and suddenly took a step forward and pounced towards Ji Ling'er.

Ji Linger dodged hurriedly, Li Zhiming's attack missed, and the powerful fire energy hit the wall.

"What's going on? The elders haven't come yet?"

Li Zhiming frowned slightly, with a look of doubt on his face.

"I know what you are thinking. Are you wondering why the old guys from Xuyuan haven't arrived yet?"

"Unfortunately, when you stepped into this cell, the space barrier I set up here at the beginning was activated silently!"

"The jade slip you just crushed cannot penetrate the space barrier I set up!"

"You know, that's a top-grade space formation!"

Ji Ling'er stood up slowly, she pushed her long hair behind her ears, revealing her absolutely beautiful, flawless, charming face.

She tied her hair up with a red ribbon into a long ponytail, which added a bit of coolness to her look.

The red dress was as red as a maple leaf, outlining the perfect curves of her body.

At this time, Ji Ling'er was the true Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect.

The charm she practiced was an earth-level skill that had already reached perfection. Her every move exuded a captivating charm.

Li Zhiming shook his head, put aside all distracting thoughts, and his expression became clear again.

Ji Ling'er's charm was truly amazing, it could even make him, who was determined inside, lose his mind for a moment.

"Um?"

When Ji Ling'er saw that her charm did not have much effect on Li Zhiming, a look of surprise flashed across her face.

"This guy actually ignored my charm?"

"Forget it, I don't have time to play with him. I have to complete the task as soon as possible!"

A purple sword appeared in Ji Ling'er's hand.

This three-foot-long sword has an exquisite shape, with fine patterns engraved on the blade. It is extremely sharp and carries a powerful sword force.

Obviously, this is a spiritual weapon, and its grade is not low.

Li Zhiming looked at Ji Ling'er warily, and he slowly retreated to the cell door.

It was only then that he discovered there was a space barrier at the door of the cell.

Just as Ji Ling'er said, this cell was shrouded in a space formation.

I am now in the barrier formed by the space formation. Even if someone passes by this cell, they may not be able to discover me.

"You let yourself be captured by Zhenyuan Sect on purpose!" Li Zhiming said.

"clever!"

"But this will make you even more dead!"

"My Hehuan Sect will not allow the existence of enemies who are too smart. Such people will make us unable to sleep or eat!" Ji Ling'er laughed.

"I admit that you are very strong, but your aura is obviously unstable now. I think it is a side effect of the fake death method."

"Given your current situation, it's too far-fetched to think of killing me!"

Li Zhiming sneered. Although he was trapped in a cell, he was not nervous.

Because this witch is not in her prime, she is probably in the early sixth level.

I am in the middle stage of the seventh rank, so there should be no problem in dealing with him for a while.

This is Xuyuan Prison. With a super master like Elder Qin here, they will sooner or later discover the abnormality in this cell. All they have to do is to delay this witch.

"A seventh-rank waste, dare you to speak so shamelessly in front of this Saint!"

"Even if this Saint Lady only has 30% of her strength now, it is enough to bury you here!"

Ji Ling'er's voice was ice-cold. She put her fingers together and drew a line across the sword. A very cold and yin energy lingered around it.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Ling'er released a powerful sword force.

The sword's power continued to grow, reaching a terrifying level in an instant.

An ordinary seventh-grade warrior would probably not be able to withstand even one move from Ji Linger's sword.

But unfortunately, Li Zhiming is not an ordinary seventh-grade warrior.

Li Zhiming drew out the Qinggu Blade, and the blade's power rose fiercely.

"Sword cultivator, interesting!"

Seeing this, Ji Linger's face flashed with a scornful smile, and then she drew her sword and rushed towards Li Zhiming.

Li Zhiming did not dodge or evade, but slashed out with the green bone blade in his hand.

Dang~!

A crisp sound was heard, and a series of sparks fell from the place where the gold and iron collided.

For a moment, the flashes of swords and the shadows of sabers were everywhere.

Sharp sword energy and knife aura spread out, leaving dense marks on the stone wall.
