At this moment, on the Dongshan Mountain outside Linhai City.
Just like the mountains by the sea, this Dongshan Mountain is not high, only tens of meters in height, and the slope is extremely gentle. There are quite a few people living on this mountain.
One of the families living at the foot of the mountain was Yang Qiusheng.
It can be said that Yang Qiusheng was miserable. In his early years, he was fine and had two children. Later, when he got old, he wanted to make a lot of money before he died, so he decided to go to sea with that group of people.
Unexpectedly, he had been away for more than two hundred years. By the time he came back, the whole family had long been dead and moved around, and not a single family member was left.
Not long after he returned, he learned that everyone on the other ships had been captured.
So he bought several pieces of land, built a house, and lived alone, changing locations every ten years.
Therefore, people around him just thought he was a weird old man, but no one noticed anything different about him.
Because of the effect of longevity fruit, Yang Qiusheng does not need to eat too much to maintain his condition.
However, recently, he has obviously felt that his body is gradually getting older. It is obvious that the effect of the longevity fruit is almost over.
But he was considered carefree, so he didn't care about it. He just moved a chair and leaned in the yard in front of the door to bask in the sun as usual.
Squeak...
Following the soft sound of the wooden door outside the courtyard, Li Zhe opened the door and walked in slowly.
"You dare to be your Excellency, but Yang Qiusheng?"
Li Zhe looked at him and asked softly.
Yang Qiusheng frowned, sat up from the chair, looked at Li Zhe, and asked doubtfully: "Are you..."
"You and I don't know each other. I came here just to ask you about the island on the sea."
Li Zhe smiled slightly, looked at Yang Qiusheng, and said softly.
As soon as these words came out, Yang Qiusheng's expression changed instantly, but then he smiled bitterly and said: "You are a monk, right? It doesn't matter. If you want to know, I will tell you."
Listening to Yang Qiusheng's words, Li Zhe's face lit up, but he didn't expect Yang Qiusheng to agree so easily.
Immediately, Li Zhe said respectfully: "I'm all ears!"
Soon, Yang Qiusheng started talking directly.
After they went to sea, they drove all the way east. After all, they wanted to explore the end of the world.
This trip took more than a full month. In this remaining month, they also traveled a distance of about a thousand miles.
Thousands of miles away, I encountered a storm, could not return, and lost my way in the storm.
Because of the storm, the sky was gloomy, they could not judge the direction by the sun, and the compasses on the ship that could guide the direction also failed.
Then, they wanted to wait until the storm stopped, so they did not sail, but just stayed on the sea, waiting for the storm to end.
Unexpectedly, the waves were so huge that they couldn't stop them at all. The waves kept beating against the hull of the ship, and it was estimated that they would be sent at least hundreds of miles away.
At that time, a lot of rations on the ship had to be thrown into the sea because of the storm.
At that time, they all thought they had run out of ammunition and food and were ready to starve to death at sea.
Unexpectedly, a fairy island shrouded in clouds and mist appeared in front of me, just like the one mentioned in the book.
The island is surrounded by clouds and mist, and in the center of the island is a mountain that towers into the clouds, which looks very sacred.
They took the risk and went to the island, but they didn't dare to go deep into it rashly. Fortunately, with the existence of the longevity fruit, they were able to camp there.
Later, time passed slowly, and many of them planned to go into the depths of the island to find out what was going on, but no one who went there was able to come back.
Because of this, the original travel team of nearly a hundred people finally returned with only a dozen people.
"That's all I know."
Yang Qiusheng chuckled at Li Zhe and whispered.
Hearing this, Li Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said softly to Yang Qiusheng: "In that case, thank you for informing me!"
After that, Li Zhe turned around and left outside without looking back.
But after Li Zhe left the room nearly a kilometer away, his whole body flashed, his aura completely disappeared, and he actually circled back to the jungle next to Yang Qiusheng's courtyard!
From the moment Yang Qiusheng started talking, Li Zhe had a vague feeling that Yang Qiusheng's expression was not right, so he quietly searched with his consciousness. As expected, there were two auras hidden in the room behind Yang Qiusheng!
Those two auras were both at the Golden Core level, but their concealment skills were very good. If Li Zhe hadn't deliberately searched for them just now, he might not have discovered their existence at all!
Immediately after returning here, Li Zhe discovered that Yang Qiusheng was no longer in the courtyard.
He took a deep breath. Li Zhe was not afraid of the cultivation of those two people. He immediately concealed his figure and walked into the courtyard, stopping at the door of the room, and then quietly penetrated in with his consciousness.
In the room, Yang Qiusheng was kneeling on the spot with a dull face, and in front of him were two men in black looking at him coldly.
"I did what you said, I did what you said..."
Yang Qiusheng knelt on the spot and kept repeating this sentence.
Li Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly and soon realized that Yang Qiusheng's soul was probably controlled by these two people.
When a mortal's soul is controlled by others, it is really impossible to survive but not to die.
I did as they said... In other words, the news I got was false!
Li Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly, and his consciousness immediately spread around.
Soon, Li Zhe confirmed that there were no other monks within a few kilometers of the surrounding area.
After getting this information, Li Zhe pointed directly at the window.
puff!
In an instant, the paper window of the room was instantly punctured by two sword energies.
The two people in the room who were looking proud suddenly had their expressions stagnant. Before they could react, two sword energy pierced their thighs!
In an instant, the two of them screamed in pain and fell to the ground at the same time.
At the moment they fell, the door opened, and Li Zhe walked in with a stern look.
"You! It's you!"
"You are actually a Nascent Soul cultivator!"
For a moment, both of them suppressed their screams of pain and looked at Li Zhe in horror.
Li Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly: "Tell me, which sect are you from? This kind of method does not look like a righteous sect."
The two people's expressions were sluggish, and before they even had time to speak, they looked at each other, and the spiritual power in their bodies surged instantly.
The two of them want to blow themselves up!
However, the moment the spiritual power in their bodies began to surge wildly, Li Zhe, who was standing at the door, suddenly disappeared. The next moment, he was beside the two of them!
Li Zhe raised his hand slightly and placed his hands directly on their shoulders.
In an instant, the two of them felt that the spiritual power in their Dantian no longer obeyed their orders at all. The spiritual power that had begun to gradually become manic also calmed down at this moment.
"Answer my questions honestly, and I can still make you two die more comfortably. Otherwise, you can die in countless ways that will make you want to live but not die."
Li Zhe looked at the two of them and said softly with an indifferent expression.
In this world of cultivation, the most fundamental reason why demonic monks are despised is that they treat everyone except themselves as puppets that can be played with at will, such as Yang Qiusheng in front of them.
Obviously, if the two of them were able to reach the Golden Core realm, they would have killed hundreds or thousands of people at least. Li Zhe naturally did not have a good look towards such people.
While speaking, Li Zhe's consciousness gently poked out and poured directly into the two people's sea of consciousness.
Li Zhe's spiritual consciousness completely overwhelmed the two of them, not to mention that his spiritual consciousness had been strengthened by the power of faith.
At this moment, as soon as their spiritual consciousness was thrust out, the two of them felt a stinging pain in their consciousness sea!
This feeling is mental torture, far more unbearable than physical pain!
In just an instant, the two of them began to roll on the ground, screaming in pain.
As for Yang Qiusheng, without the control of these two people, he returned to normal at this moment. He hid in the corner of the room with a look of fear and looked at everything that happened in front of him with a pale face.
After torturing the two of them with his spiritual consciousness for a while, Li Zhecai slowly stopped, and then said slowly: "If any of you don't answer my next question, I will randomly select one person and search directly. Soul, as for what you will become after soul searching, I don’t care.”
As soon as these words came out, both of them trembled and looked at each other, both seeing the deep fear in each other's eyes.
In the past, they were the ones who tortured others. Unexpectedly, today it was their turn!
"Okay, first question, who are you and why do you want to control him to lie?"
Li Zhe took a breath, looked at the two of them, and said softly.
For a moment, both of them fell silent, obviously not wanting to answer the question.
However, at the moment when they were silent, Li Zhe's consciousness came out again, and in an instant, it pressed against the two people's sea of consciousness!
"I...I said!"
In an instant, the man on Li Zhe's left side trembled and kept talking.
Seeing this, Li Zhe nodded slightly and motioned for him to continue.
"The two of us... are the elders of the Poseidon Sect. The reason why we controlled him to lie is because we learned the truth from him before and didn't want others to know."
The man swallowed his saliva, said with a bitter look on his face and a trembling voice.
Hearing this, Li Zhe turned his head, looked at the other person, and said with a smile: "Tell me, did he lie to me? As long as you nod, he will be dead and you will be liberated."
For a moment, the other person looked at Li Zhe and his body shook suddenly. He felt that the man in front of him looked like a demon!
