The underground tunnel had been abandoned for a long time. It was dark and damp, and had a musty smell. A monk standing in the depths of the darkness suddenly shook the staff in his hand, and said with a cold gaze, "Everyone wants me dead, it won't be that easy!"
He had wanted to attract the Iron Prison Mountain prison guards, kill them, and escape to another planet. Unexpectedly, the prison guards did not come, but an immortal monarch.
Cheng Yipeng noticed the other party, and naturally, the other party noticed him too. Instantly, several powerful immortal senses swept past, all locking onto Cheng Yipeng, who stood in the darkness.
"Hehe." With a chuckle, a fragrant wind blew into the tunnel. Light flashed, illuminating the darkness. Then, a group of men in black appeared in front of and behind Cheng Yipeng, completely blocking his escape route.
"Master Cheng Yipeng, your disguise skills are really not bad," the female immortal monarch teased.
At this point, Cheng Yipeng no longer panicked. He sighed, "Amitabha, benefactor, you are rich enough to rival a country. Could it be that you are interested in the last of our Mani Sect's assets? These assets are indeed a lot to ordinary immortals, but to Benefactor Li, it is but a drop in the bucket. "
"You recognize me too?" The leading immortal monarch in black did not dawdle, and immediately took off his mask. It was Big Boss Li.
Li Yao said, "Cheng Yipeng, actually, I really don't care about the remaining assets of your Mani Sect. I came for the two-world grass. I've long heard that Mani Sect obtained a stalk of two-world grass, but when I asked Zhou Jiajun, he always gave me vague answers. Now that things have come to this, the two-world grass is useless to you. Take out the two-world grass, and I will let you live. "
"So immortal monarch is here for that thing. I've long heard that immortal monarch has been searching everywhere for it." Cheng Yipeng nodded. With the Mani Sect's assets in his hands, immortal monarch Li Yao would not be moved at all. The only thing he wanted was that black mystical grass.
"Two-world grass. The remnants of the destroyed Soul World, extremely rare. They like to grow at the boundary between two worlds. If you offer this grass to the God of the Underworld, the God of the Underworld will take out the Immortal Life Log and change one's fate. It can also revive the dead. "
Li Yao said, "That's right, this is it."
Cheng Yipeng nodded again, "Indeed, the Mani Sect did obtain one by chance … At that time, a mortal believer gave all the treasures left behind by his ancestors to the Mani Sect in exchange for a mouthful of Carefree Powder. Among them was this black herb …"
Li Yao's eyes lit up as he listened. His face was filled with joy.
Cheng Yipeng continued, "Back then, when I taught it, no one recognized it. Thus, I took the grass and asked around. In the end, although I found out that it was an extremely rare Two-World Grass, the news was leaked and trouble came knocking on my door … The Lord of the Netherworld actually came knocking on my door personally."
"Ah!" Li Yao exclaimed. His eyes were filled with despair.
Cheng Yipeng said, "The Lord of the Underworld personally came to ask for it. Of course, the Mani Sect did not dare to be negligent, so we presented the Two-World Grass to him. The Lord of the Underworld also threw down some treasures symbolically … Of course, Boss Li, you can choose not to believe it. Just watch for yourself."
Cheng Yipeng knew that his life was hanging by a thread, so he did not hesitate. He took off the Qiankun Bag and threw it to Li Yao.
The Qiankun Bag contained the Mani Sect's plunder over the years. There were tens of millions of immortal jades, various treasures, materials, and natural treasures. It could be said that whoever obtained it would immediately obtain great wealth.
However, to Immortal Lord Li Yao, no amount of money was of any use. What she wanted, however, was not there.
"Boss Li, I have no reason to lie to you. The Two-World Grass is of no use to me. You can take everything in the Qiankun Bag. Now, I only have the Buddhist staff in my left hand and a string of useless Buddhist beads in my right hand. I have nothing else. Please, Boss Li, spare my life."
Li Yao didn't want to come here for nothing, so she didn't stand on ceremony. She raised her hand and took the Qiankun Bag, saying, "Ye Kong is already here, so you can't leave. These treasures are still useless to you, so just give them to me. Take care of yourself. "
After saying that, Li Yao covered her face with a black veil. Then, she led her subordinates back the way they came.
Ye Kong and the rest arrived just in time. They discovered that the prison guard was wrapped in a ball of white light. It was as if he was trapped in a ball of yarn. The prison guard was curled up inside, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Ye Kong was enraged. How dare they attack his subordinates? How dare they touch people from Iron Prison Mountain?! They must be tired of living!
The prison guards were enraged. One by one, they took out their immortal equipment and swore to take revenge. They did not take the Sin Immortal Rope. There was a rule on the Sin Immortal Rope. Those caught by the Sin Immortal Rope could not be easily killed. Therefore, if the prison guards wanted to kill, they would not use the Sin Immortal Rope.
However, at this moment, Li Yao flew out. With a wave of her hand, the white thread broke into pieces. It fell to the ground and disappeared. The prison guard also crawled up unscathed.
Although Ye Kong did not know if this was Li Yao, he did not see any ill intentions. After all, the other party was an Immortal Monarch. Even his Gold Sin Immortal Rope could not do anything. If they were to fall out, he would not be able to defeat the Immortal Monarch.
The group of black robed men flew away. However, they did not go far. Instead, they flew far away and stopped in mid-air.
A black robed man came forward and reported, "That Cheng Yipeng is indeed not honest. He is still hiding something!"
After saying that, he drew a circle in the air with his finger. Following which, he conjured a technique and pointed with his index finger. The circle in the air lit up. Cheng Yipeng's figure could be seen.
Li Yao and the rest had left. If they used their immortal awareness to search, they would definitely be discovered by Ye Kong and Cheng Yipeng. Therefore, it was appropriate to use such a technique.
On the screen, Cheng Yipeng punched his chest three times. With three thumping sounds, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Surprisingly, there was a soybean-like object in the blood.
Cheng Yipeng's face lit up. He picked up the soybean-like object and used his hand to dig up a piece of soil on the ground. He buried the soybean-like object and covered it with soil.
When Cheng Yipeng was done, he seemed to know that Li Yao was watching him. He said "Amitabha" to Li Yao before turning around and running away.
The black robed man who set up the display array exclaimed, "He actually knew that we were watching him! Could it be that he saw through the array that I secretly set up? "
"That might not be the case." Li Yao shook his head. "Given Cheng Yipeng's intelligence, it would not be difficult for him to guess that we are still watching him. He might not have seen through the array that you set up. However, after seeing what he did, I believe his words even more. "
The black robed man asked, "Boss, do you know what fruit it is?"
Li Yao said, "That's not a fruit. That's a seed. The soybean-like object that he spat out is the seed of a Soul-Shifting Grass. "
"Soul-Shifting Grass?" Although his subordinates' cultivation levels were not low, they had never heard of the Soul-Shifting Grass.
Li Yao said, "This Soul-Shifting Grass is a species unique to the Underworld. There are many of them in the Underworld. It is said that an immortal's soul can be placed on it. After the immortal dies, the grass will grow, bloom, and bear fruit. Finally, the person's soul and body will grow back."
