Just a thin, tiny needle had sealed his most powerful and secretive Source Sea. If not for Gu Haiyuan using the Scarlet Fire Toad's blood to awaken his consciousness, he might have fallen into a long slumber until his body rotted and he died of natural causes.
"What do you want from me?" He asked expressionlessly.
Gu Haiyuan sighed: "As expected of an expert that can survive independently in the hunting grounds, you are not anxious at all under such circumstances."
Yan Li's mind was half immersed in the Source Sea, he could not be bothered to talk nonsense.
In the chaotic world, as far as the eye could see, everything was silver white. Only outside the chaotic world, it was still a vast expanse.
It was this vast expanse that kept him from panicking. The chaotic world was after all still a chaotic world, no matter how strong the divine needle was, it had only sealed his cultivation.
The Scarlet Fire Toad's blood was one way to unseal the seal, but to form a fire strong enough to melt an iceberg, he did not know how much would be needed. A large urn? A large vat? Just imagining that kind of stench was disgusting enough.
Of course, the Scarlet Fire Toad was not the only fire element item, he could slowly search for more. What he knew now was that the Ice Moon Divine Needle sealed his cultivation, but it did not affect his life. His body was normal, he just could not circulate his essence.
The other party still had a request, so there was nothing to panic about.
After calming himself down, he said indifferently: "It seems you have your eyes on me for a long time."
"To be more precise, it started when you stepped into Spectre Forest." Gu Haiyuan chuckled, seemingly very pleased with himself.
"Feng Kaishan and the others' client is you." Yan Li said.
Gu Haiyuan was surprised: "You don't even need to think, how can you be so sure?"
Yan Li said: "That's not important."
Gu Haiyuan smiled: "Alright, then let's talk about the important things. I need you to help me carry out a mission. Sealing your cultivation is also for your own good, to prevent others from seeing through you, because the location of the mission is the Wang Estate. "
"Why must it be me?" Yan Li asked.
Gu Haiyuan said: "Come, come, sit up first." As he spoke, he helped Yan Li up and moved the old wooden table to the front of the bed. He took out a drawing from his pocket and spread it out on the table.
It was a sketch of a building.
"What is this?" Yan Li asked.
Gu Haiyuan said, "This is the layout of the manor. Your mission is to act as my spy and secretly place the Divine Flame Thunder that I developed in these seven locations. As for the rest, you don't need to ask too much. Tomorrow, go to Liu Guan Street's Red Mountain Garden and find a person called Liu Er Mazi. He will bring you into the Wang Fu. "
Yan Li sneered and said, "That's not how business is done."
Gu Haiyuan couldn't help but sneer, "Little Brother, you don't seem to have a sufficient understanding of your situation. Right now, you're the meat on the chopping block, and I'm the knife. Do you still dare to talk business with me? "
"You'd better treat this as a business deal," Yan Li said.
"Oh? Why is that? "Gu Haiyuan asked curiously.
Yan Li stared at him and said, "Otherwise, I will make you suffer ten times more than Liu Ying."
Gu Haiyuan's face twitched, but he quickly recovered his smile.
Yan Li's eyes flickered and said, "It seems like you know everything that I've done since I entered the city."
Gu Haiyuan sighed and said, "You're really smart. Then you must be thinking that as long as we find enough Scarlet Fire Toads, no, fire objects, then we can break the seal. "
Yan Li slightly raised his brows and said, "What are you trying to say?"
Gu Haiyuan sighed again, "What I want to say is that the effect of the fire attribute mixed together is not enough, because the Ice Moon Divine Needle's seal will naturally recover. No matter how much you destroy, as long as it is not completely destroyed, it will recover to its original state. If you don't believe me, I still have the inner core of the Scarlet Fire Toad here.
"Give it to me!" Yan Li said.
Gu Haiyuan immediately reached into a leather pouch at his waist and took out a round red object the size of a pigeon egg. If one did not look at the wrinkles on the object's surface, it would look like a pill.
He directly stuffed it into Yan Li's mouth.
Before Yan Li could taste anything, the core slid down his throat and into his stomach.
As soon as the core entered his stomach, his body felt like it was about to burn. A wave of heat rushed into his limbs and bones.
Yan Li had no time to care about his body, so he directly sank his consciousness into the Source Sea.
As expected, bright red magma-like liquid seeped out of the void of the Primal Chaos World. It was almost as spectacular as a volcanic eruption.
When the magma fell into the world of ice and snow, it made a sizzling sound and produced a large amount of white mist.
It seemed like the Primal Chaos World also followed a certain law.
What was delightful was that the ice melted by the magma turned into streams of water that slowly gathered to form a river. The white mist rose into the sky and contrasted with the Source Sea. It was as if life had returned to this world.
As the ice and snow melted, the Source Sea gradually became turbulent.
A drop of magma that was exceptionally bright red landed on the surface of the water and kept sinking until it reached the ice at the bottom of the water.
When it broke through the ice, Yan Li was in a relaxed state. At this time, the Scarlet Fire Toad's medicinal power had run out. The Primal Chaos World no longer seeped magma. Other than that drop, the flames had all disappeared. The heat gradually subsided. It was as if the season had suddenly changed from the height of summer to the depth of winter.
Yan Li watched helplessly as the melted ice water began to freeze again under an irresistible force. It was as if the night had reigned, and the bitter cold arrived on time. Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
He frowned. Gu Haiyuan was right. Unless it melted in one go, the seal would return to its original state. This vicious needle was close to the form of a law. With his current cultivation, it was impossible for him to break through it.
Was he really going to be controlled by this fellow and let him do whatever he wanted?
At this moment, he was shocked to discover that there was a faint flame under the layer of ice.
It was that strange drop of magma. Not only had it not been destroyed, it was still continuously seeping down.
Yan Li's gaze followed it down. Of course, he did not expect it to create any miracles. He just wanted to see how much it could resist.
As it continued to sink deeper, it became smaller and smaller. In the end, he could only see a blurry red dot, weaker than a candle in the wind.
Yan Li was a little disappointed. He was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. His eyes widened. "The Fire Spirit Pearl!"
At this time, the red dot also disappeared.
Yan Li stared at the thick ice. He could not see what was happening below.
Suddenly, there was a tremor under his feet.
His eyes gradually lit up.
Crack crack crack —
From the bottom to the top, the dense crisp sound was like a beautiful piece of music. Yan Li could not help but want to dance.
The ice cracked, and he could finally see it clearly. An incomparably hot and clean flame without any impurities soared into the sky like an oven, melting all the layers of ice it passed.
There was only that flame left in Yan Li's eyes. It was like a flame dragon sweeping through the nine heavens and ten earths. In the blink of an eye, apart from the low-altitude clouds and some icy mist, the entire chaotic world had come to life.
That hot and clean true fire also dimmed. Finally, it descended from the sky and landed in Yan Li's palm.
The Fire Spirit Pearl looked even more dispirited than before. It had not rested in Yan Li's Source Sea for long before it suffered another huge loss. This time, it did not even have light and became an ordinary red glass pearl.
Yan Li looked at the pearl affectionately and sighed. "Brother Spirit Pearl, you really did a great job this time. Don't worry. You are so loyal to me. I will not feed you to the Dragon God Ring next time."
After saying that, he solemnly put the pearl back into the Source Sea.
Yan Li glanced at the icy mist one last time. Seeing that there was no change, he returned to his body with relief.
He opened his eyes and looked at Gu Haiyuan without batting an eyelid. "Looks like you're right."
Gu Haiyuan laughed and rubbed his hands. "You should know who I am. I am Gu Haiyuan, the world's top craftsman. My words are authoritative!"
"Oh?" Yan Li said. "What is a craftsman?"
Gu Haiyuan subconsciously covered his mouth and said vaguely, "Ahem, a craftsman who specializes in making fireworks."
"Forget it. I am not interested anyway," Yan Li said.
Gu Haiyuan was a little unhappy. "Then what are you interested in?"
Yan Li said: "I want to know, if I complete your mission, how are you going to release my seal?"
Gu Haiyuan smiled. "How can I tell you that now? First, I will tell you the method after you complete my mission."
Saying so, he reached into his leather bag and took out a small porcelain bottle. "This is a Fire Essence Pill. It is used to support cultivation. Its effect is only half of the Scarlet Fire Toad's inner core. But it is enough for you to use during your mission."
Yan Li also smiled and took it.
"Oh, and …" Gu Haiyuan reached into his leather bag again. After searching for a while, he took out a strange mask. "You are a wanted criminal. It will be troublesome if you are recognized. I made this mask by imitating the Thousand Silk Dead Face. It can let …"
"Hmm?" He suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked up at Yan Li.
"Let what?" Yan Li said with a faint smile.
"It can let you change your appearance …" Gu Haiyuan swallowed and smiled. "You are so naughty. Why did you let go of the rope?"
"Who are you calling naughty?" Yan Li picked up a broken rope and threw it at Gu Haiyuan's face.
Gu Haiyuan picked it up and looked at it. It was obvious that the fracture was caused by the explosion of vitality. He stammered: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, it was me …"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Yan Li's face. He grabbed Gu Haiyuan's head and slammed it against the old wooden table.
Bang!
The old wooden table was smashed into pieces. Gu Haiyuan screamed and fell to the ground. As he groaned, he shouted in a desperate voice: "Hero, spare me, spare me, spare me, spare me …"
"Spare me?" Yan Li stepped on his back. "Will you spare me when you catch me?"
"Please forgive me, please forgive me. I didn't do it on purpose. Please forgive me …" Gu Haiyuan cried.
Yan Li shook his head and sneered. He mobilized his vitality and gathered it at the tip of his foot.
