"Maybe we were wrong." Somewhere in mid-air, the flying boat was escaping at high speed. Mo Juren stood on the deck, looking at the token in his hand and said thoughtfully.
"What did you say again this time?" Yinyue's bright eyes blinked, vaguely curious.
"It's some of her thoughts, including some information about the great demon in the transformation stage, etc..." Mo Juren didn't hide anything and immediately told the story.
After hearing this, not only Yinyue, but also Han Yunzhi and Han Lijin were a little dumbfounded. How could they just give it away to a great demon in the transformation stage? Is there such an operation?
"It's not that easy. Unless there is a huge benefit, it is almost impossible for a great demon in the transformation stage to completely give up its freedom and become someone else's spiritual beast." Mo Juren shook his head slightly.
"In the future, we can take him to sneak into the spirit world. Isn't this enough bargaining chip?" Yinyue said in surprise.
"The truth is correct, but the premise of everything is trust. Once life and death are in the hands of others, it will be too late to regret it. If my master has a bad character, or becomes bad in the future, wouldn't I just jump into a pit of fire? ?" Mo Juren put away the token and then said,
"Besides, I also don't trust her. Some fundamental secrets cannot be disclosed to her in advance. The only bargaining chip I can show is my cultivation qualifications and the possibility of breaking through to become a god.
Unfortunately, this is only possible after all, and whether it will succeed in the future is yet to be seen. As for ascending to the spiritual world, it has long become a legend in today's spiritual world. There has not been one case in many years, so isn't it even more illusory?
Under such a premise, the possibility of letting him hand over 30% of his soul and leaving his life and death in the hands of others is too low. "
"How can you demean yourself so much?" Han Yunzhi immediately rolled his eyes at his husband, but he also agreed with it and said,
"But this is reasonable. It depends on whether the other party is willing to take the gamble."
"The price is so high, she may not have such courage." Mo Juren shook his head slightly and was not very optimistic.
"So you don't plan to meet him?" Yinyue asked again.
"We still have to meet. After all, we have Xiao Qi's face. What if we all guess wrong and the other party is a powerful and strange woman? But not now, let's talk about it when the time is right." Mo Juren laughed.
"It's a pity that Xiaoqi can't come back. With her here, we can have an extra layer of protection. After all, it's easy to kill the monster in the transformation stage, but it's difficult to prevent its soul from escaping or even self-destructing." Yinyue sighed softly.
"Do you think there is much difference between Xiaoqi's situation, whether he is here or not?" Mo Juren asked back, which immediately stunned Yinyue.
Indeed, as a monster in the transformation stage, Xiao Qi definitely has some strength, and his assistance is top-notch, but preventing his soul from escaping or even self-destructing is not of much help.
On the contrary, she is the best at psychedelics, especially after taking over the body of the Sky Fox, she has gradually inherited many top secret techniques from the other party's bloodline through these years of practice.
"So, you were planning on me early in the morning?" Yinyue finally reacted and looked at someone angrily.
"Those who are able should work harder!" Mo Juren chuckled and said,
"I remember you said before that the Tianhu clan is uniquely endowed in the psychedelic field. Since you have inherited part of it, you can have unexpected effects..."
"You say it lightly. Of course I am proficient in this method, but it must be combined with the specific situation. Don't forget, it has only been about twenty years since I took possession of this body and started practicing. It is impossible to comprehend it too deeply. And the target we have to face this time is a great demon in the transformation stage, so its strength must not be bad."
"So..." Mo Juren was stunned, thinking that the other party was going to refuse, but he never thought that his next words immediately made him stunned.
"Of course you can't do it in vain?" Yinyue rolled her eyes and said with a sly smile,
"As your weapon spirit, it is naturally your duty to use the Ice Soul Xuanjing Sword against the enemy, but if you use it separately, there must be some reward."
"Do we need to pay for our friendship? When did you become so realistic?" Mo Juren looked stunned.
"What kind of master you follow will naturally have what kind of subordinates. The reality is also learned from you." Yinyue didn't care at all and continued,
"I've already laid out the conditions, so you just say whether you agree or not?"
"What kind of treasure do you have your eye on again?" Mo Juren smiled helplessly.
"I don't like those things of yours." Yinyue shook her head slightly, her bright eyes suddenly flashed and said,
"Let's do this, you promise me something. I haven't figured out what it is yet. I'll tell you when I think of it later. And as long as you agree to this condition, no matter how many times I make a move in the future, I will never ask for it again."
"So generous!" Mo Juren put away his smile, thought for a moment, and then said,
"I can promise you, but it will only be within my ability, and it cannot go against my will."
"Of course, let's high-five and make an appointment!" Yinyue nodded happily, and did not ask the other party to swear or anything, but adopted this simple method.
Obviously, this is not binding, and everything depends on Mo Juren's character.
"Aren't you afraid that I will regret it in the future?" Mo Juren asked with a smile after high-fiving the other party's fair hand.
"I believe you won't." Yinyue looked determined, then hugged Han Yunzhi beside her and continued,
"Besides, there is sister Yunzhi. She will definitely not let you break your promise."
"Your reason is really 'impeccable'." Mo Juren couldn't help but smile, but he was too lazy to tell the other party anything. However, he secretly guessed the other party's intention in doing so.
Yinyue is obviously not the kind of person who cares about everything. There must be a reason for suddenly making such a request. As for what it is, there is currently no way of knowing.
…
Unknowingly, more than half a month had passed. The flying boat continued to move forward, gradually flying to the very depths of the sea.
On this day, when I was flying to an unfamiliar sea area, I suddenly stopped.
On the deck, Mo Juren looked up and saw at a glance a vast group of islands not far ahead. There were more than a hundred large and small islands. The large ones stretched for tens of miles, but the small ones were only a few dozen feet long. Long and wide islands and reefs.
He released his spiritual consciousness and instantly inspected the entire island community. Except for the fact that some islands were home to many low-level monsters, there were no other abnormalities.
The largest of these islands is located on the edge. It is shaped like a fan. It is a bare desert island with flat terrain. There is very little greenery. Instead, various plants grow on other surrounding islands.
"It should be right here!" Looking back, Mo Juren nodded.
It was also the first time for him to come here, and everything was unfamiliar. However, from the memory of a level six bird monster he had hunted before, he could tell that this place was once the location of its lair.
Later, he left this place for unknown reasons and migrated to another sea area. Unfortunately, he happened to be encountered by him and eventually lost his life.
As for the so-called great demon in the transformation stage, it is not here, but in a certain sea area for several days and nights. It seems to be a red island, and there are traces of the other party there.
It's a pity that the memory in the soul of the bird monster is not clear. It can be deduced that these are the limits, and we can only search slowly further.
"Are you planning to ambush here?" Looking at the island group below, Yinyue suddenly made a guess.
"This is the safest way. The monsters in the transformation stage are not weak in strength, and their wisdom is no less than that of humans. If there are no formation restrictions, it will be too difficult to kill the opponent." Mo Juren nodded and continued,
"According to the memory obtained from the soul search, the location of the other party is in the area for several days and nights, but the specific direction cannot be determined, so we need to search slowly. If the other party is not aware of it, I plan to act separately next."
As he spoke, he waved his arms and several large brocade boxes appeared. They were handed directly to Han Li aside and ordered:
"These are three sets of formation equipment. I leave them to you. Wait on the island below later. Once you receive my message, you will start to arrange them immediately. In addition, these formations are relatively complicated, so your master wife will also If you stay, it will be faster if the two of you set up the formation together."
"Don't worry, Master, just leave it to your disciple." Han Li took the brocade box and nodded solemnly.
"The great demon in the transformation stage is extremely powerful, you must be careful!" Han Yunzhi understood what the other party was thinking, it was just that his strength was too low, and if he followed him to take risks, he would only be holding him back.
As for Yinyue, the other party's situation was special. As a weapon spirit, he couldn't leave his natal magic weapon too far, so he naturally left with Mo Juren.
The plan was decided, and Mo Juren no longer delayed, put the silver moon into his sleeve robe, then summoned the flying sword, which turned into a white rainbow and flew away through the sky.
Seeing this, Han Yunzhi and Han Li did not hesitate, and sent their flying boats to fly towards the largest island.
Time passed slowly, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Because he could not determine the specific location, Mo Juren could only search in four directions one by one.
His luck was not very good. It took him nearly ten days to finally find a suspected target.
Over a certain sea area, Mo Juren looked intently and could vaguely see a faint red dot more than ten miles ahead.
Immediately, his eyes were filled with spiritual light, and it was only then that he finally saw it clearly. It was clearly an isolated island, with a large area, roughly estimated to be nearly a thousand miles wide.
The mountains on the island are crisscrossed with countless giant peaks. What's even more special is that for some unknown reason, all the mountain peaks, including the island's ground, are as red as blood, which is extremely strange.
"The red island should be here." Mo Juren guessed as the light in his eyes faded.
According to the memory of the sixth-level bird monster, it can be known that the so-called great monster in the transformation stage haunts the island here.
Unfortunately, the memory possessed by the bird monster was chaotic and unclear, so he could not determine when he saw it and whether it was still there today.
The other is the attribute of this monster. It can be determined from the memory of the bird monster. The opponent can set off a thousand-foot wave with just a raise of his hand. It can be seen that it has a high probability of being a water attribute.
"The consciousness of monsters in the transformation stage is very powerful. If you continue to approach, you must be cautious, otherwise you may be noticed." After a brief exploration, Yinyue immediately gave a reminder.
"I will pay attention." Mo Juren nodded. He had already used the breath-condensing technique to the extreme. He was wearing a black robe to cover up the fluctuations of mana, plus dozens of breath-condensing talismans. It is not easy for the other party to discover his existence.
What he was worried about at this time was not that, but whether the great demon in the transformation stage was still there? If not, then he would have to change one. Fortunately, the information sent back by Xiaoqi was full of useful information, so he no longer had to worry about not being able to find the target.
After retracting his thoughts, a layer of blue light suddenly lit up around his body, and then he flew directly down and was submerged into the sea water in an instant.
Although he was well prepared, he still could not be careless. As he gradually approached the island, Mo Juren became more and more cautious.
He didn't even let go of his spiritual consciousness, but only relied on passive induction to understand everything around him. Fortunately, his consciousness was strong enough to clearly detect the surrounding situation.
At least nothing was found in the outer area of the island. When he reached the edge of the island, without any hesitation, the escape light instantly changed and he submerged into it with the earth escape technique.
What surprised him was that not only the surface of the island, but also the underground rock formations and soil were also dark red, which looked particularly strange.
At this moment, Mo Juren had already figured out what was going on. There was actually rare hematite in the underground of this island, a material that was not considered top-notch but was extremely versatile for refining weapons.
As for the brighter reds above the island, they should be the most common 'red jade vine' based on hematite veins, a special spiritual plant that is extremely tenacious and likes to spread wantonly.
Although hematite was good, it did not attract Mo Juren's interest. At this time, he had a doubt. If the monster in the transformation stage really existed, why did it choose such an island environment?
Obviously, this is not a place where water-type monsters prefer to live. If it were earth-type, or metal-type, it would be about the same.
However, this doubt only lasted for a short time and was resolved. As he approached the central area of the island, a huge lake hidden among the mountains appeared in his consciousness.
Even though there was still a distance, he could clearly sense the lake's unusual character, and a hint of faint evil aura filled the air, unable to escape his perception.
"I sensed it, it's inside!" Thinking of Yin Yue's voice in his mind, Mo Juren naturally noticed it and without any hesitation, he immediately took out the communication token and sent the message to Han Li, who was more than 300 miles away.
"What to do next? Just knock on the door directly like this?" Yinyue asked again.
"Since we are luring the enemy, we naturally have to make a big show of it." Mo Juren nodded, but said again,
"But there is no rush now. Give Han Li and the others some time and wait until the formation is completed before taking action."
The distance of more than three hundred miles, when traveling at full speed, is only a meal for the Nascent Soul stage monks, but the arrangement of the formation cannot be completed in a short time. (End of chapter)
