Chapter 339 Closing the Net
Thinking of this, Gu Zhifei made a decision.
After placing Ling next to the cook, Gu Zhifei returned to his room, but disappeared on the spot.
She became more and more familiar with the use of the concealment array and was now able to move normally according to her travel speed.
It would be difficult for her to explore the way with Ling. Now that she has put this little ancestor down, she can go out openly to look for clues.
The first thing she thought of was the demon cultivator she was chasing.
The demon cultivator's cultivation level was not very high, probably in the middle stage of foundation building, which was just within the range of strength that she could track.
The things that a demon cultivator of this level of cultivation can access would not be too important, so Gu Zhifei would not be in too much danger.
The foundation-building demon cultivator went to Hehuan Pavilion.
The devil cultivator is reckless and has never been bound by rules when it comes to love, so it is reasonable for him to come here.
Gu Zhifei used the concealment array to swagger into the Hehuan Pavilion. He walked around but did not find any marked people.
She stood in the center of the Hehuan Pavilion, listening to the laughter all around her, and looking at the mark in her sea of consciousness right here, she couldn't help but feel puzzled.
There was nothing wrong with her tracing array, which meant that the demon cultivator was right under her feet.
The fact that he was still alive meant that there was something else going on under his feet.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhifei raised his foot and kicked the ground.
But she didn't expect that this kick would draw everyone's attention.
Gu Zhifei was very embarrassed.
Finished!
What was going on? So this wasn't the Hehuan Pavilion, but the Demon Cultivation Cave? Gu Zhifei wanted to cry but had no tears.
She knew she was very unlucky, but she didn't know she could be this unlucky.
Not only did he encounter a demon cultivator who was good at hiding his abilities, but now he encountered a whole group of them! Seeing the demon cultivators all change their expressions, Gu Zhifei was neither able to retreat nor advance, and could only stay where he was and wait and see what would happen.
One of the female cultivators slowly pulled her clothes, which had been pulled down to her waist, up to her shoulders and said, "Those bastards from the famous and righteous sects are good at array formations and spells. Men, search them for me!"
Gu Zhifei broke out in a cold sweat.
She found that she could not see through the cultivation level of this charming female cultivator, which meant that she was at least in the Golden Core stage.
Demonic cultivation is different from Taoist cultivation. The higher you go in cultivation, the harder it is to cultivate. Therefore, the more powerful the demonic cultivation is, the more terrifying it is.
Gu Zhifei held the teleportation jade ring in his hand. This jade ring was given to him by Tong Dao Zun the day before he entered the forbidden land barrier. It is also effective in other places, but the farther the distance, the more spiritual power it will consume.
The spiritual pills that Gu Zhifei carried with her were enough for her to return. As soon as the other party discovered her, she would leave.
Facing a Jindan stage, or even higher demon cultivator, Gu Zhifei did not dare to be careless. He could only leave quickly and ask Tiantong Daozun and others for help to deal with the demon cultivator.
As for Ling, I will ask Hua Wuya to keep an eye on her. There won't be much danger for her to stay with the cook.
Besides, I have returned the mask to him, so he can at least summon some monsters to protect himself.
Gu Zhifei arranged everything in his mind in a hurry, but before he could crush the jade ring, the evil cultivator swept it out with something unknown.
The female demon leader waved her hand, and Gu Zhifei only heard the sound of wind in his ears, and then he was blown out of the formation and fell heavily to the ground.
In the face of absolute strength, formations and talismans are of no use.
Gu Zhifei knew something was wrong and was about to crush the jade ring in his hand, but he heard the female demon cultivator say softly, "Yan Jue?"
Her tone didn't sound like the anger of an enemy meeting, but rather the joy of seeing an old friend after a long time: "Why are you here?"
Gu Zhifei immediately covered the jade ring back under his clothes to avoid exposing it.
She looked at the leader of the female demon cultivators and found that the face looked familiar to her.
Yes, this face is about 70% similar to mine! Impossible, in the novel, Yan Jue's family had all been killed by her own hands, and she only had a younger sister who wandered away in the early years.
"Yan Jue, my dear sister, have you done everything I asked you to do before?"
Gu Zhifei raised his head suddenly, and was met with a smile in the eyes of the female demon cultivator Bu Da.
Yes, there are many unreasonable explanations in her novels, one of which includes Yan Jue’s cultivation.
The unreasonable parts in her novels have been basically filled in, and although they are applied to the world of cultivation, reasonable explanations are given one by one.
Is it time to fill the hole of Yan Jue now? Gu Zhifei thought, there won’t be a shocking whitewashing, and in the end only Leng Nuan is the villain, and the others are innocent poor little ones, right?
Gu Zhifei felt a chill.
"Where are the things?"
The female demon cultivator lifted up Gu Zhifei's face.
Gu Zhifei's body originally belonged to Yan Jue, so it was difficult to find any abnormality in his body shape.
But her eyes were different from Yan Jue's, and her behavior was also different from Yan Jue's. As long as this female demon cultivator used her brain a little, she might be exposed immediately.
So Gu Zhifei decided to say nothing.
She turned her head and let go of the demon cultivator's hand. She was not afraid that the demon cultivator would see her cultivation level.
Gu Zhifei only needs to lock all six sides of the magic dice, and no one will be able to sense her cultivation strength.
Because the divine dice was turned off, Gu Zhifei was equivalent to having no spiritual roots and was also unable to circulate spiritual power.
Sure enough, after checking Gu Zhifei's pulse, the latter did not come to any conclusion and just asked Gu Zhifei to recuperate on his own.
Then, she asked the same question as before: "Where is the thing I asked you to get? Did you get it?"
Gu Zhifei certainly didn't know what she wanted. She couldn't be stupid enough to ask her this question, so she perfunctorily said, "No."
Her answer was too perfunctory, but it was in line with Yan Jue's own temperament.
The female demon cultivator didn't doubt it. She stared at her for a while before changing her expression. She touched her face and pinched it hard, leaving a mark. "I said, no matter what, you have to give me the key to the Bai family!"
The key to the Bai family? Gu Zhifei's mind raced.
This woman probably doesn't need the key to the Bai family's front door, and the only other key she has is the blue gem that Gu Zhifei took away.
As a magic cultivator, she didn't need to cultivate ice attributes, so what did she need the things of Taoism for? Gu Zhifei felt a little confused.
Of course, she still wouldn't show it on her face: "This is a little difficult, you know."
"I will give you some cultivation points just because it's so simple?" The female demon cultivator was so angry that she kicked Gu Zhifei aside and snorted coldly, "Get out of here now!"
Gu Zhifei was hoping she would say that.
She was still thinking about how to blend into the team of demon cultivators. Now it seems that her face is that of a demon cultivator, but she just forgot about it.
Gu Zhifei was unexpectedly in a better mood after being able to blend in with the demon cultivators openly. Just as she was about to step aside, she heard the female demon cultivator speak again: "Don't worry about the Bai family. There is something I need you to do here."
Gu Zhifei looked up at her, appearing a little confused.
The female demon cultivator thought: This guy doesn’t look like he has lost his magic power, but more like he has lost his soul.
Despite thinking this, she still made her request very simple and clear.
"Go to the ghost town and steal Hua Wuya's Tianji disk."
Gu Zhifei looked at her and was silent for a while.
She touched the Qiankun bag at her waist, and found the Tianji Disk inside.
This female demon cultivator is really pitiful. She still cannot complete her mission this time.
Gu Zhifei nodded sincerely and asked seriously, "What does the Tianji Plate look like?"
To those who know her, her question might seem like nonsense, but to others, it is the most normal thing.
She had never seen the Tianji Plate, so how could she know what it looked like? Her request was not excessive.
"I'll give you the blueprints, and you can find the Tianji Disk according to the signs on it."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gu Zhifei nodded and agreed readily.
She wished she could leave here and return to the Seven Stars Gate immediately. She was annoyed by the demon cultivators who came and went and whose cultivation levels she couldn't tell.
In the world of immortal cultivation, the strong are respected. Gu Zhifei was already close to forming a golden core. Although it was not suitable for her to run around, other people did not know her level of cultivation.
In their eyes, it was an honor for Gu Zhifei, a guy with no cultivation, to go to the ghost town.
Of course, it is more likely that a demon cultivator without any cultivation would enter the Wuxiang Tower in the ghost town.
Do things for her?
Gu Zhifei smiled: "So you want me to be a puppet?"
The leading woman frowned: "You have food and drink, how can you be considered a puppet?"
Gu Zhifei sneered and did not comment.
The leading woman talked for a long time, just hoping that she could disguise herself as an ordinary person and go undercover in the ghost town Wuxiang Tower.
In fact, this is exactly what Gu Zhifei wants.
This task was not easy to do. If she didn't get the Tianji Disk, she would not be able to complete her mission.
But if you get it, how to bring it out will be a huge problem.
After all, Hua Wuya on the opposite side is also a Yuanying level boss, so crushing them to death is as easy as crushing an ant.
But Gu Zhifei can do it very simply.
She just needed to lurk in the ghost town, do something for Hua Wuya, and then turn around and tell the leader that she had messed up.
Not only is it safe, but she can also get better treatment. At the same time, she might even get some information here.
Seeing that Gu Zhifei’s agreement was not too difficult, the leading female breathed a sigh of relief.
She was worried that Yanjue would not go. This was not the first time she was turned away.
"I'll give you some pills. Just be careful." said the leading female cultivator.
Gu Zhifei didn't see any concern in her cold eyes. So she knew that this extra caution was not meant for her, but was telling her to be more careful when doing the task and not to fail.
After understanding the implication, Gu Zhifei became even less interested in this person who was suspected to be Yan Jue's sister.
The demon cultivator really does not have any emotions, which can be seen from Sister Yanjue's expression.
Gu Zhifei knew about half of the cause and effect of the matter and guessed the other half.
In order to correct the problems written in her book, Yan Jue had an older sister in this cultivation world. In the eyes of outsiders, this sister is the real Yan Jue, who is evil and does all kinds of evil. And Yan Jue is just a substitute for this sister.
Of course, Yan Jue committed many crimes, but most of them were committed by her sister.
In order to let her sister take the risk to go to the Bai family to steal the key to the tomb, Sister Yan Jue instilled her with full demonic energy, making her a demon cultivator that was feared by many parties.
Gu Zhifei was thinking this when he suddenly felt something was wrong. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but there was only one flaw.
How did this evil cultivator know that the Heavenly Secret Disk was in Hua Wuya’s hands?
If Gu Zhifei remembered correctly, few people in the cultivation world knew that Hua Wuya had the Tianji Disk, otherwise they would have started fighting long ago.
Moreover, even if we take a step back and say that the evil cultivator has planted spies around Hua Wuya, then she should know that the Heavenly Secret Disk is now in her hands.
If the evil cultivator really didn't know about it, then he had brought all of this upon himself.
Gu Zhifei bit her tongue hard to urge herself to wake up. Sure enough, when she tasted blood in her mouth, everything in front of her began to slowly turn yellow and fade away, and the burning picture was turned over.
She was still standing in the center of the Hehuan Cult. Not far away, there crouched a creature that looked like a dog, a lion, and a deer.
Gu Zhifei had seen this kind of spirit beast in the atlas before. It was an extremely rare spirit beast, called "Yan", which means nightmare.
The attack power of this spirit beast is not strong, but it is very easy to bewitch people and make them see things that they don’t want to see or very much want to see deep in their hearts.
Because this kind of dream can directly expose a person's deepest fears and joys, this kind of spiritual beast is now very rare.
It’s not because everyone cherishes this spiritual beast, but because everyone is afraid of it. As long as there is a chance, once a wild nightmare beast is seen, it must be beaten to death.
It’s as if as long as you don’t face yourself, there will be no obstacles in your heart.
Gu Zhifei thought that such a small Hehuan Pavilion could actually be home to many hidden talents. Fortunately, she had given enough spirit stones in the Tianji Plate, so no one else noticed her existence.
If there wasn't a nightmare beast here, perhaps everything would be simpler.
This time she didn't dare to make any other noise, but searched quietly around, and finally she found a secret door.
Gently pushing the door open to create a gap, Gu Zhifei successfully squeezed into the secret door with the help of the formation and his own tucked-in body.
She didn't dare go any deeper, always worried that she would meet a powerful demon cultivator like Sister Yan Jue.
She didn't want to go through what she had just experienced again. It was too painful. She swore that if she encountered such a thing again, she would crush the jade ring and never take the risk again.
"Are you sure she's in the ghost town?"
This was said by the demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building who came with Gu Zhifei.
"I'm sure she's here. She gave birth to a child before, and her body never recovered. Even though she no longer uses her spiritual power, I can still feel her presence here."
The person who was speaking was a girl, whom Gu Zhifei didn't know at all.
"Very good, then let's start closing the net. I don't want to wait any longer. We can't afford to keep wasting time."
Gu Zhifei didn't really listen to the rest of the conversation. She only heard the word "closing the net". If the word "closing the net" can be used, it must not be an ordinary dispute. So what happened here? (End of this chapter)
