High up in the sky above the Billowing Cloud Stream, Yi Tian and the He Huan Sect's Hao Ji were in a stalemate. However, he could not figure out what the other party was thinking.
First of all, Grand Concubine had held him back at just the right time. She had waited until Du Ziheng and Shi Ningjun were far away before she asked. That in itself seemed to be an act of goodwill, but after she attacked him repeatedly in Fire Cloud Cave, it seemed that she had already become suspicious.
Sure enough, Hao Ji's gaze was sizing him up again. Then, she said, "I didn't know that you were familiar with the Thousand Spirit Sect. I see that your Radiant Sword's Three Absolutes is even better than Shi Ningjun's. You must be someone with a great background, right?"
What he was afraid of really happened. At this moment, Yi Tian was extremely regretful that he had chosen to go with her. Coincidentally, he had even met Monk Wu Chen. However, his expression did not change as he quibbled, "Fellow must have seen wrongly. I used the Divine Sword Technique, not the Thousand Spirit Sect's Radiant Sword Technique."
Hao Ji covered her mouth and chuckled. "Isn't Fellow Daoist's rebuttal a bit too weak? Although Fellow Daoist changed the spirit qi and the starting move, it isn't that easy to hide."
"Oh, so there is such a thing. Maybe my master is related to the Thousand Spirit Sect." Although the other party had exposed him, Yi Tian was still prepared to hold on.
Suddenly, Hao Ji changed the topic and asked, "Fellow, can you tell me your background? It is not rare for a branch of the Li Fire Sect to secretly learn other sects' cultivation techniques."
"Didn't I say before? I am Huo Chilian, the successor of the Qian Kun Yu Huo Sect." Yi Tian replied.
Hao Ji blinked her beautiful eyes and a purple halo flashed. She teased again, "When the Thousand Faces Illusion Technique is cultivated to the extreme, it can prevent cultivators of the same level from seeing your true appearance. However, as long as you cultivate the Eyes of Truth, you can see through it. Didn't the Gu family brats tell you about this?"
From the looks of it, the other party had long seen through him. It was just that the mention of the Thousand Spirit Sect's Gu Clan made him recall that when he had killed Gu Shi Du and obtained the Thousand Faces Technique, he had not investigated the details of the matter.
However, after hearing Hao Ji's words, Yi Tian no longer concealed himself. He slowly withdrew the Thousand Faces Technique and revealed his true appearance. However, his tone was unfriendly as he said, "Fellow Hao Ji, do you know that it is not a gentleman's conduct to expose someone's past?"
"I am a little girl, not a gentleman." Hao Ji continued, "When Huo Chilian escaped from the Central Continent, he was only able to escape under the protection of my He Huan Sect. At that time, he was only in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. I wonder how his cultivation is now."
Hearing up to this point, Yi Tian finally understood what had happened. The moment he had used the name Crimson Fire, Hao Ji had already set her eyes on him. This time, he had truly miscalculated. However, looking at Hao Ji's expression, it seemed that there was more to it. He immediately replied, "Junior Brother Huo is currently attempting to break through to the Yuanying Heavenly Moat. I believe that he should be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage within fifty years."
"I know that your Li Fire Sect's cultivation techniques are powerful. What others cannot do may not be possible for you," said Hao Ji.
Yi Tian frowned slightly. Then, with a thought, he thought to himself, "It seems like she was very close to Huo Chilian back then. She knows quite a bit about the Li Fire Sect." Following that, he said with a solemn expression, "I am Yi Tian. Fellow Daoist, I believe you did not stay behind just to have a simple chat with me, right?"
"Of course not. Back then, I protected Huo Chilian because of his master. Now that he has yet to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, I will need you to do the rest." After saying that, Hao Ji waved her hand. A golden beam of light flew out of her sleeve and circled around her before condensing in the air.
After the golden light dissipated, a three-inch golden bell was revealed. Yi Tian scanned it with his perception. The spiritual artifact's grade was about the high rank of Level 6.
On the front were the words' Hehuan Bell 'written in a spirit world language. The surroundings were also engraved with spirit world language runes. At a glance, the edges of the item seemed to have a few cracks.
Upon seeing this, he understood that the protection she gave him back then was conditional. It seemed like it would be difficult to shirk off this task. However, Hao Ji did not say anything. He decided to listen to her price before deciding if he needed to help.
Hao Ji gently handed the Hehuan Bell over and asked, "Since Brother Yi is Huo Chilian's senior brother, what advice do you have for this item?"
With a smile, Yi Tian slowly replied, "The Hehuan Bell's material is Obsidian Black Iron and Meteorite Iron mixed with deep sea ice crystals. The surroundings are engraved with spirit world language runes to 'confuse the mind'. Together with the Hehuan Sect's mental cultivation techniques, it can easily cause opponents of the same level to fall into an illusion. I wonder if what I said is correct? "
Hao Ji's eyes lit up when she heard this. She said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, you are indeed impressive. Just by seeing this treasure for the first time, you are able to describe its material and functions in such a clear and logical manner. Your Li Fire Sect's refining techniques are indeed the best in the Tian Lan continent."
"Fellow Daoist, don't be happy too early. It's not that simple to repair this item. Other than the rare materials needed to repair it, you also need to use Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree or Fusang Tree fragments mixed with dragon blood to create an inscription fluid. Only then can the runes on it be mended. "Yi Tian pointed out a few key points.
As expected, Hao Ji's expression changed several times before she revealed an awkward smile, "I'll prepare the materials. As for the repair, I'll have to trouble Brother Yi."
Yi Tian replied with disdain, "I'm afraid not. According to what I know, the other materials can be found with some effort. However, Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree or Fusang Tree are almost unique in this world. To find them, you have to rely on great opportunities."
Hao Ji said with a troubled expression, "Can't you use other materials as a substitute?"
"It looks like fellow Daoist knows very little about the spirit world's inscription techniques. The upper realm's inscriptions have to be written with immortal items, or it will not be able to withstand the large amount of spirit energy. It will eventually lead to the spirit artifact being damaged." After saying this, Hao Ji frowned deeply. It looked like his words had put her in a difficult position. At this moment, Yi Tian sighed and said, "If that's the case, fellow Daoist can just prepare the Obsidian Profound Iron, Meteorite Iron, and Deep Sea Ice Crystal. As for the inscription fluid, I'll be responsible for mixing it. How about that?"
Hao Ji's eyes lit up and she immediately recovered her smile, "Then fellow Daoist, can you give me a time limit and a method of communication? I'll inform you as soon as I gather them."
Yi Tian waved his hand and took out a jade talisman, handing it over to Hao Ji, "I'll go to Sanskrit Temple to deliver a jade slip. After this matter is over, I'll start to travel the Central State. As long as fellow Daoist gathers the materials, you can send me a message to Tiandao Market to repair the spirit artifact. How about it?"
"Since Brother Yi has agreed, I have no objections. I just don't know how much Nourishing Gold is needed." Hao Ji asked in a probing manner.
"When the time comes, I'll think about it and inform you." After saying this, Yi Tian took out a map and looked around. He then got up and flew towards Sanskrit Temple.
