"Kid! Wait for your death! " Fan Jiushe laughed wildly. He waved his hands at the hole in the vine wall and continuously shot out ice bullets.
The light blue light flashed and quickly shot into the cage grass like fireflies. The ice bullets hit the wall and immediately froze into a large block of ice. The temperature in the cage dropped instantly.
However, Ye Kong already had a way to get out of the cage. He raised his palm and a yellow talisman appeared in his hand.
"Haha, Qi Training Stage Four, I'm also going to enter the middle stage!" Fan Jiushe was still daydreaming, crazily throwing ice bombs into the hole. As long as he absorbed Ye Kong's spiritual energy, he would advance to the middle stage. At that time, he would be able to control artifacts and his strength would increase greatly.
"Then I'll congratulate Brother Fan in advance." Suddenly, a cold voice came from beside him. Fan Jiushe felt it was so familiar.
He turned his head and saw the moonlight had just risen. The bright white light shone into the open space in the forest. A young man in a green shirt stood proudly, his face full of mockery.
"You …!" Fan Jiushe's eyes widened in disbelief. His fat face looked like he had seen a ghost. He mumbled, "How did you get out!"
Ye Kong ignored him. He seized the opportunity, held the dagger, and fiercely stabbed at Fan Jiushe's throat … Fan Jiushe was not prepared at all, nor did he resist. The dagger's blade drew a strange arc in the dark night and disappeared into Fan Jiushe's thick neck.
Fan Jiushe's widened eyes were filled with despair, unwillingness, and doubt before death.
"I'll let you die knowing … There's a talisman called the Wall Piercing Talisman … As long as it's a physical wall, it can be pierced …"
Ye Kong was afraid that this fatty wouldn't die. He pulled out the knife and stabbed again, and again … Under the moonlight, the blood glowed black and red. It was extremely terrifying. On the small grass, the sound of the dagger piercing through the human body kept ringing.
After countless stabs, Fan Jiushe's big head separated from his body. His head fell to the ground, and he couldn't be more dead. Only then did Ye Kong let out a sigh of relief.
Panting, he sat to the side and was just about to relax for a while when he saw the storage pouch hanging from Fan Jiushe's waist.
"In the end, you're still a newbie. You're still not familiar with killing people and seizing their treasures." Ye Kong hurriedly rushed over and pulled the storage bag over.
There weren't many things in the storage bag, but it made Ye Kong's heart go wild with joy, because it was all needed by a rookie cultivator like him.
First of all, the most eye-catching thing was the small sword magic tool. This was a pretty good mid-grade magic tool, and it was also the first magic tool that Ye Kong had obtained. He held it in his hand and played with it. The moment he held the small sword, Ye Kong also understood Fan Jiushe's feelings. "If I reach the fourth stage of Qi Training, I can use it!"
Next, what attracted Ye Kong's attention was the remaining spirit stones. Fan Jiushe had wasted a lot of them, and in the end, there were only four left, which were placed in a small black cloth bag. This was also the first time that Ye Kong had obtained spirit stones.
He curiously took one. It was a black water element spirit stone, about the size of a fresh date, oblate square, and polyhedron. It looked a bit like an extra large rock candy.
Ye Kong held the spirit stone tightly and channeled his energy to absorb it. An incomparably pure water spiritual energy flowed from his palm into his meridians. This kind of water spiritual energy was much purer and thicker than the spiritual energy in the air.
Ye Kong didn't dare to absorb too much and quickly put the spirit stone back into the storage bag. What attracted his attention were two green square bamboo buckets the size of mahjong tiles.
Ye Kong guessed that this was the spiritual scroll that stored the cultivation method. He quickly took one, pinched it in his hand, and probed it with his divine sense.
"Destroying the Cauldron and Seizing the Core" was the cultivation method that Fan Jiushe had obtained from the remains of the ancient barbarian cultivators. Ye Kong roughly looked at it and found that it was basically useless for him. He had already cultivated the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Scripture, so it was impossible to waste the basic cultivation method. Moreover, the barbarian cultivation method was too cruel, and the cauldron was hard to find. Ye Kong roughly looked at it and put it back into the storage bag.
He then looked at the other spiritual scroll and found that it recorded what Ye Kong currently needed the most. It was the incantations for several low-level spells, including the Fireball Spell, Ice Bullet Spell, Quicksand Spell, Heaven's Eye Spell, Exorcism Spell, and so on.
"From now on, I am no longer an immortal cultivator who doesn't know spells!" Ye Kong was very excited. These spells could be said to be his best harvest this time. After learning these spells, he had truly embarked on the path of immortality and was basically invincible against mortals.
Ye Kong held the spiritual scroll and was reluctant to put it back. He looked into the storage bag again and found that in addition to dried meat and food, there was also a talisman.
This talisman was completely different from the yellow talisman that Ye Kong had. This was a spiritual talisman. It was as wide as a paper talisman, but shorter in length. It was entirely jade white, and he didn't know what material it was made of.
The front of the talisman was written in the ancient script of the Cangnan Continent, "Spirit Cultivator Formation".
"This is a formation talisman!" Ye Kong was shocked. This was also one of the items that he needed. Judging from the name, it was a formation used for cultivation and meditation. In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about being interrupted when he cultivated at home in the future.
"No wonder people in this continent like to kill people and rob their treasures. It is indeed easy to get. I have everything I need." Ye Kong said and went into the storage bag to look at the spoils of war.
However, this time, he didn't find anything of value. There was a large pile of silver in the corner of the bag, about two thousand taels of silver.
Although it was a lot of silver, Ye Kong didn't care about it at all. As an immortal, he didn't need to worry about silver.
After putting the formation talisman into the storage bag, Ye Kong couldn't wait to learn the Fireball Technique. With spiritual mechanics, it wasn't a problem at all. In the time it took for a joss stick to burn, he could successfully shoot out a small fireball.
He threw a few small fireballs at Fan Jiushe's corpse, and the corpse was immediately burned to a crisp.
After Ye Kong finished cleaning up the battlefield, he suddenly saw the Cage Grass that was still standing in the middle of the grassland. His eyes suddenly lit up, "Since it's a low-grade low-tier spirit herb, then wouldn't its juice be just right for making talismans?"
With this idea in mind, Ye Kong took out a small sword dharma artifact and cut at the cage grass. However, it was impossible for Ye Kong to chop down the cage grass, so he could only try to chop as much as possible.
After chopping for a while, he chopped down one side of the cage grass and divided it into three pieces. Only then could he stuff it into the storage bag.
By the time he was done, the moon was already high in the sky. Ye Kong was worried about Nan City, so he didn't dare to delay and hurried back!
At night, the forest was pitch black, and there was no point of reference, so it was easy to get lost. Fortunately, Fan Jiushe's horse was an old horse that knew the way. Ye Kong rode on the horse and let the old horse walk out of the forest.
After walking for a long time, he finally saw the fiery red mangrove forest. Only then did he completely relax.
Cang Nan Continent was different from Earth. The plants here didn't rely on photosynthesis to grow. For example, this kind of mangrove relied on spiritual energy to grow. This tree was red all over, and at night, it emitted a dark red light, illuminating the entire forest like it was on fire. At a glance, it was majestic and glorious.
"Looking at the color, it's probably fire spiritual energy. I wonder if it can be absorbed by immortal cultivators?" Sitting on the horse, Ye Kong broke off a section of the fiery red branch and found that he couldn't absorb the spiritual energy in it at all. After the branch was broken off, it quickly dimmed.
"Looks like it won't work. Otherwise, those immortal cultivators would rush to cut down the tree."
The forest was very big. In the morning, it took them four hours to enter, and it took them about the same time to leave. They walked until the moon went down and the sky was dimly lit. Only then did Ye Kong walk to the edge of the mangrove forest.
Before leaving the forest, he saw many figures slowly walking in the forest. Ye Kong focused and saw that it was the Ye family's bodyguards.
"Liu Changqing!" Ye Kong shouted and hurriedly went to greet him.
When the bodyguards saw Ye Kong, they immediately cheered, "Eighth Young Master is back!" The sound waves spread out.
On the prairie, the girl standing in the middle of the thousands of candle grasses heard the news and immediately shouted, "Big Brother Ye Kong!" She ran in the direction of the sound.
Ye Kong got off the horse and walked side by side with Liu Changqing, listening to him talk about the situation in Nan City.
In the morning, as soon as Ye Kong and Fan Jiushe left the city, someone came back to report that the Lu brothers and Liu Changqing's bodyguards had surrounded the Fan family's residence. They had already found out that Fan Jiulong didn't go to the House of Hidden Spring that day, but there were many martial arts masters in the Fan family's courtyard. If they attacked by force, there would be many casualties. Plus, in broad daylight, it might attract the intervention of the mayor's office.
Although the mayor of the southern city was arranged by Ye Haoran, they couldn't go too far. Plus, they weren't familiar with Ye Kong, so he might not give them face.
But Ye Kong had already thought of this. He had Lu Qin use an invisible talisman to sneak in and open the back door of Fan Manor. Everyone went in together.
Lu Qin was also bold. She used the invisible talisman and the wall-passing talisman to enter the hall where Fan Jiulong was, wanting to take him out. But who knew that ever since Fan Jiulong failed to assassinate Ye Kong, he had become more cautious. He set up a trap behind his seat. Once someone stepped on it, a net would immediately catch them.
Lu Qin didn't pay attention and stepped on the net. Fortunately, she had learned quite a few Shadow Dancer martial arts from Ye Kong. She was able to take advantage of the fact that the net was about to close.
Fan Jiulong and his subordinates, who were alarmed, knew that someone had come. Each of them waved their swords and sabers wildly in the room. The little girl was almost injured, but in the end, she stuck a Soul-Calming Talisman on Fan Jiulong's forehead and ended the battle.
"She's quite capable," Ye Kong said.
"Yes, the little girl has done a great service this time." Liu Changqing nodded and said. Then, he asked Ye Kong in a low voice. "Eighth Young Master, her talismans are really mystical. She's an immortal, right? Can I become Miss Lu's disciple?"
"Become her disciple?" Ye Kong couldn't help but laugh. He looked up and saw Lu Qin running over on her little legs like a deer. He smiled and said, "Then you should tell her yourself."
"Big Brother Ye Kong ~" The little girl had been worried for an entire night. Now that she saw Ye Kong, her emotions were stirred up, and she actually threw herself at him without a care for her shyness. However, when she reached him, she realized that Liu Changqing and the others were standing at the side.
Looking at the little girl's pretty face, there were still a few drops of tears hanging on it. Even Ye Kong, who was determined not to provoke her, couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart.
"Liu Changqing, listen up! Turn around! "Ye Kong shouted.
Liu Changqing smiled. "Reporting to General, the enemy is fierce. We aren't a match for them. We might as well leave it to the General to attack alone. We will return to camp and cook."
"Then why aren't you leaving?"
"Haha, brothers, let's go to the Hidden Spring House. Eighth Young Master is treating us."
When the soldiers heard about the Hidden Spring House, they all ran away in the blink of an eye. Only then did Ye Kong open his sleeves and accept Lu Qin's hug.
The little girl blushed. She lowered her head and held on for a while. In the end, she couldn't resist the temptation of her sweetheart's chest. She took a step forward and gently hugged Ye Kong.
"Ai, I've sinned. I've also fallen in love."
