When Hao Yun was about to arrive in East Lake City, he found a secluded place and released Zhang Yinfan from Huo Kuang's space. He also agreed that he and Huang Li would go to the Lingxi Guild Hall for reconnaissance first, and if there were no problems , and informed Zhang Yinfan to go deal with the mask matter.
Zhang Yinfan was hiding alone in the woods outside East Lake City. He was always uneasy in his heart. Even though he took the initiative to respond internally, when the critical moment came, he still felt that he had no bottom in his heart. Logically speaking, he is a cultivator in the early stage of Mahayana, and can be regarded as a real strong man in the spiritual world, but he is not excited about it because he knows very well that when his strength becomes stronger, it means that The opponents I will encounter in the future will also be more powerful. Especially this time, changing the mask is just a pretext, and the purpose is to attract the real senior leaders of the Smiling Fairy.
As a senior member of the Smiling Fairies, Zhang Yinfan knew very well that he was just curious when he first joined the association. However, as his understanding of the Smiling Fairies deepened, he discovered that this organization was far more powerful than he imagined. In this organization, the contribution points earned can buy many magic tricks or cultivation experiences that cultivators in the spiritual world flock to, and you can even buy some long-lost cultivation knowledge. The magic of the smiley mask makes it even more popular. Zhang Yinfan was amazed by it, all of which showed the power of the smiling face fairy. But this time, Zhang Yinfan's purpose was to lift the thick veil of the smiling goblin. He didn't know what he was about to see? But he knew very well that there must be hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the senior leaders of the Smiling Fairy, and as a newly promoted early Mahayana cultivator, he had nothing to be proud of.
Zhang Yinfan walked all the way and came to the door of Lingxi Guild Hall. He took a long breath and calmed down, then pushed the door open and walked in. Zhang Yinfan felt the fragrance coming towards him. Fortunately, he also had quick hands and eyes. He grabbed the small hand that was reaching towards his chest. He heard an ouch and saw a woman, Hua Hua. Rong stood in front of him pale.
"Who are you and why did you break into our club?" The woman forced her hand out of Zhang Yinfan's hand and asked as she rubbed her fingers.
"Isn't this a guild hall? Did I go to the wrong place?" Zhang Yinfan was stunned for a moment and replied.
"We are a club, but at this time, the club is not open for business. The notice outside clearly states that if you break in before the business hours, you will be responsible for all the consequences." The woman responded with a cold eyebrow. .
After Zhang Yinfan received Hao Yun's notice, he hurried over and didn't even notice any notices outside. Besides, he came here to change his mask. It didn't seem to have anything to do with whether the club was open or not.
"Have your guild always been so domineering in East Lake City?" Zhang Yinfan felt very strange. As a secret meeting point for the Smiling Fairy, he should be very low-key. Such a performance really did not meet his expectations. .
"You're being overbearing there. We've always been the first to talk ugly, and it's not me who asked you to break in." The woman glared at Zhang Yinfan, looking as if she wanted to bite him a few times. However, the sneak attack just now Before she could succeed, she knew that she was no match for Zhang Yinfan.
Zhang Yinfan could tell at a glance that this woman was a cultivator at the Golden Core stage, and her strength was not worth mentioning. However, Zhang Yinfan didn't dare to offend others. After all, who knew what tricks the smiling face fairy would come up with, so Zhang Yinfan had no choice but to squeeze out a smile from his face and said, "It's my fault. I didn't read the notice carefully. In this way, I will go out first and come back when it opens."
"You don't need to come over. You have been blocked by our club. We will not accept you or send you goodbye." Unexpectedly, the woman became reluctant and told Zhang Yinfan not to come again.
Now Zhang Yinfan was a little angry. Even if he broke in, he shouldn't refuse the guests. Besides, he came here to change his mask. Why would this club be so unreasonable? They weren't afraid that they would get angry and throw the club away. Demolished. Just when Zhang Yinfan was extremely surprised, he heard the woman say again: "If you really admit your mistake, we will still be lenient."
"Of course I sincerely admit my mistake." Zhang Yinfan said quickly.
"Okay, you go out and read the notice." The woman immediately started to chase away the guests, pointing outside and signaling Zhang Yinfan to go out.
In this way, Zhang Yinfan arrived outside the club in a daze. He searched at the gate and found no notice at all. Finally, he used his spiritual consciousness to find a small sign in an inconspicuous place on the left side of the gate. , there are some small words written densely on it. After reading it, Zhang Yinfan felt as if he had been blackmailed. Emotionally, this club was a black shop.
When Zhang Yinfan saw this small sign, he felt something was wrong. After reading the notice carefully, he felt that there was a big problem with this club. The notice written on the sign means that when the door is not open, it is not open for business. At this time, if you break in, you will not follow the rules, and the customer will be blocked directly. If the guest truly admits his mistake, he needs to go to the swamp and pick a high-level elixir as compensation. Otherwise, the guest will not have to come again.
Zhang Yinfan is sure that this small sign is not intended to be seen by others, otherwise it would not be placed in such an inconspicuous place, and the content written on it is just a hooliganism. After all, the doors of many guild halls are usually closed. I have never heard of using the status of the door to determine whether it is open or closed. Normally, it should say the business hours. Finally, they went to the swamp to pick up elixirs. Before coming, they had done their homework and knew that it was almost impossible to find high-level elixirs above the water in the swamp. They had been stripped away by cultivators many years ago. , so if you want to pick up high-level elixirs, the only possibility is to go under the water. In order to achieve this goal, it is not very likely to pick it from the water surface near East Lake City, because those water surfaces belong to private territory and are usually guarded. Unless you want to go to war, it is best not to touch the interests of local snakes. . Then the only choice given to Zhang Yinfan was to go to the depths of the swamp, but the depths of the swamp meant danger. Poisons were rampant there, and there was also a lot of miasma.
Zhang Yinfan sighed, soared into the sky, and flew towards the depths of the swamp. He now basically understood that they did it on purpose. It is estimated that this store uses this extremely overbearing rule to screen the visitors. Are you a member of the Smiley Fairies? If most people entered by mistake, they would definitely be angry and run away. Only members of the organization who are really in trouble would actually go to the depths of the swamp. Zhang Yinfan was flying all the way, thinking that someone might be eyeing him now and conducting further checks on him.
In order not to alert others, Zhang Yinfan did not dare to send a message to Hao Yun, just for fear of being discovered. Hao Yun and Huang Li saw Zhang Yinfan entering the guild hall and ran out soon after. They wandered around the gate for a while, then stopped on the left side for a while before flying away. Hao Yun felt it was very strange and told Huang Li not to act rashly. Then he used the time technique to come to the place where Zhang Yinfan stayed and found the small sign. After reading it, Hao Yun was very angry and did it for a long time. Changing a mask is not a simple matter.
Fortunately, Hao Yun completed all of this in the long river of time. If Hao Yun used his spiritual consciousness to scan, he would definitely be exposed. As the secret joint of the Smiling Fairy, there will definitely be many traps set up to avoid potential threats. Hao Yun understood that he had to be more cautious. Huang Li felt dazzled as the posture of Hao Yun in front of her changed, and she realized that Hao Yun must have used the time technique.
Hao Yun told Huang Li what he had just seen. Huang Li frowned and asked, "What should we do? Should we also go to the depths of the swamp?"
"In my opinion, don't go there. Let's wait here for Zhang Yinfan to return. I'm afraid someone will be watching him." Hao Yun was thinking more. He understood that this was just a test. He was probably over there in the swamp. There will still be some testing.
Hao Yun was right. There was indeed another test for Zhang Yinfan, but this test almost scared Zhang Yinfan into having a heart attack. It turned out that after Zhang Yinfan came to the depths of the swamp, he used a protective space and plunged into the thick miasma. All he wanted to do was to quickly find a spiritual elixir from inside and go back to deliver the report. However, it didn't take long for him to realize that something was wrong. There was a faint fluctuation in his damaged mask, as if it was pointing the way forward for him. Once the direction is correct, the fluctuations will speed up; if not, the fluctuations will slow down or disappear.
In this way, Zhang Yinfan followed the guidance by mistake and came to a stone platform in the depths. Zhang Yinfan smiled bitterly in his heart and said: "It seems that the Lingxi Guild Hall is just a cover. It turns out that this is the place where masks are changed. "
Zhang Yinfan saw a smiling face mask appearing on the stone platform, but when he took it with his hands, he found that the mask was tightly attached to the stone platform. Unless the stone platform was destroyed, he could not take it off at all. After Zhang Yinfan took out his destroyed mask from his ring, he put the destroyed mask close to the mask on the stone platform. Then he saw that his mask quickly turned into a puddle of liquid like snow, and was then covered by the stone platform. The mask was absorbed.
The liquid-absorbing mask made Zhang Yinfan feel that the mask resonated with him, and he knew that the process of changing his mask was over. This time, Zhang Yinfan reached out and easily took off the mask from the stone platform, and then saw the stone platform sinking and finally disappearing completely above the water.
Zhang Yinfan was extremely amazed. Apart from some interactions with the woman, the entire replacement process was all a spontaneous act by himself. However, if he had not entangled with the woman, he probably would not have run to the swamp. deep. The overall feeling for Zhang Yinfan was that it was a bit complicated. In fact, when the mask was damaged, he was directly prompted to come to this swamp. It seemed that he would be more cautious, so that he would not need to come into contact with anyone and the joint location would not be exposed.
Just when Zhang Yinfan was thinking wildly, he felt a vibration coming from his mask. His consciousness swept away, and after browsing the information, he broke into a cold sweat. The message passed over read: "Congratulations, you passed the magical battlefield and successfully advanced to the Mahayana stage. Please report your experience in time. If there are no problems in the review, you will have the opportunity to become a core member of the Smiling Fairy and enjoy More benefits.”
Zhang Yinfan felt like he was being closely monitored by the smiling goblin from beginning to end. It was amazing that he could know his status just by changing a mask. You must know that when the mask was damaged, he did not succeed in promotion. In other words, even if his own aura remained in the mask, it was only the aura of the Tribulation Stage. However, after changing the mask, he never actually used the mask. He only put his consciousness into the mask after receiving the message. This message clearly indicated his identity, and he also knew that he had passed through the magical battlefield. Those who advance feel that they are completely transparent and have no secrets in front of them.
Just when Zhang Yinfan was in a state of panic, he heard movement from under the water, and then saw a black pipe exposed. The cover above the pipe popped up with a bang, and a hole appeared in his body. in front of. Suddenly, Zhang Yinfan's mask vibrated. When he scanned it, he saw three words written in the message: "Jump down."
