Green clouds covered the sky, as if they were smoke. Hibiko Higashi's green robes fluttered in the wind as he stood under the bright moon. He raised his fingers and formed a hand seal, continuously sending out green rainbow-like flying lights that attacked the dozens of cultivators below him.
These dozens of cultivators gathered in one place, working together to resist the enemy. Although they were facing a tidal wave of attacks, they didn't panic at all.
There were three Transcendent Artifacts hovering above everyone's heads, a pot, a staff, and a candle. All of them emitted a bright glow, faintly protecting the entire mountain peak that everyone was standing on. Even with the rolling green Qi and the flying leaves that were like blades, they still couldn't break through this layer of barrier.
Meanwhile, there were three Daoists flying in the sky, moving back and forth. Above their heads were three long swords that emitted magnificent rainbow-like lights. The swords danced in the air, faintly aiming at Hibiko Higashi. Often, if he was slightly distracted, the swords would come to kill him.
Hibiko Higashi attacked a few more times, but seeing that he couldn't break through this formation, he felt impatient and went to find the three Daoists who were holding the swords to kill him.
However, every time he did this, the three Daoists would lead him in a circle, and just when he was about to be caught, they would fall into the formation. When he left, they would come out of the formation again. After going back and forth a few times, Hibiko Higashi was also extremely annoyed.
Now that almost all of the medicinal mushrooms in the shallow soil had been dug out by him, these medicinal mushrooms seemed to feel that a great disaster was imminent, and all of them burrowed deep into the ground. In this way, even he wouldn't be able to dig them out in a short period of time. Therefore, he turned his attention to those cultivators, but he didn't expect that these people would use the flag formation to fight against him, leaving him with nowhere to start.
Hibiko Higashi knew that it was pointless to continue fighting, so he grunted heavily and left while gazing into the sky.
Seeing him disappear, the three Daoists heaved a long sigh of relief. Although it had only been a short moment, the pressure they had faced was unprecedentedly great. If Hibiko Higashi had continued to stay, it would not have been long before the Yuanzhen in their bodies were completely exhausted.
Their leader came to the center of the formation and bowed to Shi Yiming, who was standing in front of him. "Shi Clan's Sixth Brother's plan is truly brilliant. The three of us will form a corner with the formation. As expected, this green-robed freak won't be able to break through us."
Shi Yiming immediately cupped his hands in greeting and said modestly, "There was a flaw in this method. It was all thanks to the help of all of you that I was able to pass."
The leading Taoist sighed and said, "Liu Lang is too modest. If you hadn't come up with this method to deal with this devil, we would have entered the treasure mountain empty-handed."
Everyone at the side nodded in agreement.
Over the past few days, Shi Yiming had gathered a few trustworthy people and set up more than ten formation flags around Qianren Peak. He also ordered a few people with profound cultivation to search for medicinal mushrooms. If Hibiko Higashi came to rob them, they could fight and retreat at the same time. Then, they would hide in the nearest formation flag and call for reinforcements. When the others arrived, they would attack together and force him to retreat.
After a few times, other cultivators also followed suit. If Hibiko Higashi came, they would hide in the formation and not come out. If he retreated, they would come out to dig for medicinal mushrooms.
After Hibiko Higashi flew away, he soon landed on a mountain peak. His face was gloomy and he was secretly annoyed.
If it wasn't for the fact that this body couldn't withstand his Xuan Qi, which prevented him from using many of his methods, how could he not be able to deal with this group of juniors?
That day, he fought with Zhang Yan for five consecutive days, but he had swallowed no less than seventy medicinal mushrooms to nourish his body. It could be seen how poor the foundation of his body was.
But now, he only had a dozen medicinal mushrooms in his hands. In a few days, it would be the day of the battle with Zhang Yan again. This made him not have the slightest confidence that he could win. He stood on the mountain peak with his hands behind his back and couldn't help but frown.
After failing to defeat Zhang Yan twice in a row, he knew that if he still used his original method, even if he fought a few more times, he still wouldn't be able to defeat this person.
After standing in the same place and thinking for a while, he couldn't help but think, "That Li Yuanba is very tough and his body is strong. Even if I can win, it will be a pyrrhic victory. I may not be able to take back that body. Fighting again is useless. It seems that I have to have a good talk with this person."
After making up his mind, he didn't go anywhere else. He just sat on the mountain peak and watched the sun rise and the moon set, the tide rise and fall.
Five days passed in a flash. Seeing that the time had come, he flew into the sky, riding the clouds and the wind, heading towards the agreed place.
This time, he was the first to arrive. In less than an hour, he saw Zhang Yan coming from afar.
Without waiting for Zhang Yan to approach, Hibiko Higashi straightened his clothes and took the initiative to greet him, "Fellow Daoist Li, please wait a moment. I have something to discuss with you."
Seeing his sudden change in attitude, Zhang Yan felt a little strange in his heart. His eyes flashed and he stood in the air, smiling, "Fellow Daoist Hibiko Higashi, if you have something to say, feel free to say it."
Hibiko Higashi glanced around and said, "This is not the place to talk. Fellow Daoist Li, please come with me."
Zhang Yan readily agreed, "Sure."
Seeing him agree so readily, Hibiko Higashi couldn't help glancing at him, nodding and taking the lead. After traveling for two hours, he found a valley where no one could be seen and descended.
The valley was quiet and tranquil, with a gurgling stream. The walls were filled with beautiful flowers and grass, and birds chirping in the forest. It could be considered a beautiful scenery. Seeing two large rocks facing each other in the valley, Hibiko Higashi landed on one of them. Zhang Yan also landed on the rock opposite him.
Hibiko Higashi placed his hand on his knee and looked at Zhang Yan. Seeing that the latter had sat down, he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "Fellow Daoist Li, the reason I came to find you today is for the Zoysia Ancestor's shell. This thing is extremely important to me. If you're willing to give it to me, I'll definitely not let you suffer a loss."
Zhang Yan smiled and shook his head. "This thing is of great use to me. There's no reason for me to give it to you."
Seeing how resolute Zhang Yan's refusal was, Hibiko Higashi didn't get angry. He considered his words for a while and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, I've told you before that even if you obtain this thing, you won't be able to bring it out of the mountain. Do you know why?"
When he heard this, Zhang Yan only treated it as a threat and didn't take it to heart. Now that Hibiko Higashi mentioned it again, he could tell that there was more to it than meets the eye. He raised his gaze to look at the other party and said, "Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist."
Hibiko Higashi patted his knee and said in a deep voice, "I won't hide it from you. I'm a cultivator from the Devil Sect. What you're seeing now is only one of my avatars. It's only because there's a tribulation I need to avoid, and this Zoysia Ancestor's shell is the only thing that can help me escape. That's why I came to this mountain. However, I also know that there's someone in this Taihao School who's been coveting this thing for a long time. It's just that they couldn't take it out due to the rules set by the Patriarch. This person allowed me to enter the mountain so easily this time. I'm afraid he's planning to use me to take this thing out and then snatch it from me. Think about it, if this person found out that this thing is in your hands, do you think he would let you escape so easily? "
"So that's the reason." Zhang Yan laughed heartily and said, "That's right. If I were in his shoes, I definitely wouldn't let him go."
Hibiko Higashi waved his sleeve and nodded. "That's right. This person's cultivation has long since reached the Yuanying realm. If he has the help of someone from the same sect, then even if I take this Zoysia Ancestor's shell and leave, I'll have to slaughter a path of blood to escape. If it was you, then you absolutely wouldn't have this chance."
When he spoke up to here, Hibiko Higashi carefully observed Zhang Yan's expression. He saw that Zhang Yan was calm and composed, and there wasn't the slightest trace of panic on his face. It seemed like Zhang Yan wasn't moved by this news at all. Hibiko Higashi's eyes couldn't help but narrow as he thought to himself, 'Could it be that this Li Yuanba has another way to escape?'
He originally thought that once he said these words, Zhang Yan would definitely ask for advice on how to deal with this problem. However, after waiting for a long time, Zhang Yan only smiled and said nothing, and he couldn't help but feel slightly impatient in his heart. After waiting for another long time, he was truly unable to restrain himself and said, "I have a method that satisfies both sides. It just depends on whether Fellow Daoist is willing or not."
Zhang Yan neither agreed nor disagreed, and he only smiled as he said, "Fellow Daoist, please tell me about it."
Hibiko Higashi said loudly, "The reason you took the Zoysia Ancestor's shell is no other than for the sake of condensing your Core. I can temporarily leave this thing in your hands, and it can even help you leave safely. However, after you form your Core, you must return this thing to me. However, you must swear an oath in front of me. In this way, after you leave the mountain, I can only be at ease and let you leave."
Zhang Yan was slightly taken aback. He never expected that Hibiko Higashi would say something like this. After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but nod to himself. This was a way to compromise as well.
The reason why the Solitary Qi Zoysia was one of the external ingredients for condensing a Core was because it was able to gather the purest and purest strand of Qi in the world. However, after he formed his Core, this thing would no longer be of any use to him, so agreeing to this condition wasn't out of the question.
Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Hibiko Higashi couldn't help but remind him again, "Fellow Daoist Li, the Taihao School naturally has a way to identify who possesses the Zoysia Ancestor's shell. You must think carefully!"
Zhang Yan was naturally able to read the meaning behind Hibiko Higashi's words. The reason this person was willing to help him was most likely because he was afraid that the Taihao School would snatch the Zoysia Ancestor's shell from him. In that case, it would probably be even more impossible for him to obtain this thing.
He carefully analyzed the pros and cons, and discovered that if he and Hibiko Higashi worked together, they would both benefit, and if they split up, they would both suffer losses. Moreover, Hibiko Higashi had clearly said that this thing was something he could use to avoid calamity. At this point, if he didn't agree, then this person would probably disregard everything to kill him after he left the mountain.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist's words aren't without reason."
Hibiko Higashi was overjoyed, and he said, "If you agree, then swear an oath."
However, Zhang Yan raised his hand and waved it off, saying with a smile, "Hold on. If you want me to agree, then I'll need you to promise me two things."
Hibiko Higashi was startled when he heard that. Then, a cold gleam shot out from his eyes, and he said coldly, "Fellow Daoist Li, don't push your luck!"
Zhang Yan smiled faintly, and said, "You're the one who begged me for this matter, so I'm very indifferent to it."
Hibiko Higashi felt a wave of suffocation in his heart. The corner of his lips twitched, and he flung his sleeves and shouted, "Fine, tell me about it."
From his point of view, this shell was related to the important matter of him avoiding calamity, so everything else could be cast aside. Even if the other party came up with some outrageous conditions, as long as it didn't affect his foundation, he could temporarily tolerate it.
Zhang Yan said unhurriedly, "I see that fellow Daoist is proficient in wood-elemental mystic arts, so you should have the Qi of the First and Second Wood Essence in your body. Can you share some with me?"
Hibiko Higashi only frowned slightly, then he nodded and said, "This is not a difficult matter, I'll agree to it. What about the other request?"
Zhang Yan smiled, and said, "I sense that the mystic light on fellow Daoist's body is strange, and it has the effect of refining my body. I hope fellow Daoist will not be stingy in helping me."
