Chapter 197: Han Li's Mental Defense Breaks
Minzhou was originally a very peaceful provincial capital.
Although it has the largest area in Xiguo, due to the lack of cultivation resources, there are very few cultivators here.
But recently, immortal cultivators have arrived one after another, causing Fengri City, the capital of Minzhou, to become more lively than ever before.
Nearly twenty Nascent Soul cultivators, hundreds of Jindan cultivators, and a large number of Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators spread out like a big net and came towards Minzhou.
After entering Fengri City, Ye Changsheng soon learned the news that most of the cultivators who came here had entered the Boundless Sea.
It is said that they discovered the cave where the person who obtained the Xuantian Immortal Vine lived.
One sect even found out that the mysterious disappearance of a small team from their sect that first entered Minzhou was related to this person.
This person appeared in Minzhou, and his intention was naturally very clear, which was to use the vastness of the boundless sea to shake off all pursuers.
In the boundless sea, it is said that even gods cannot fly!
As the name suggests, it is boundless. However, due to some special reasons, only a few species of fish live in the boundless sea.
These fish are all extremely ferocious, no less than the monsters on land. Even a cultivator in the Jindan stage may be in danger if he falls into the sea.
The most dangerous thing is that there is basically no spiritual energy in this sea, and there is no land to land on.
In other words, while flying in this ocean, spiritual energy is consumed but cannot be replenished.
No one dared to venture too far into the Boundless Sea.
It is said that there was once a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage who was very curious about what was at the end of this sea, so he flew in the sea for nearly a year after being fully prepared.
After a year, I still haven't reached the end. Looking around, it's still ocean.
And this sea is still the same as the boundless sea before, without any change.
The Yuanying Zhenren fell into despair, and consumed most of the spirit stones and elixirs he had with him.
So, they didn't dare to go any further and quickly returned.
If the spirit stones are exhausted, even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage will be trapped and die in this sea.
Han Li entered the Boundless Sea, naturally wanting to take advantage of the characteristics of this ocean to shake off the large number of pursuers behind him.
He thought that the large amount of spiritual medicine and elixirs he carried with him were enough to sustain him in this sea for a long time.
After shaking off the pursuers, he planned to make a big circle and land in Tiannan from another place.
In fact, when he was discovered at the beginning, Han Li had considered going all the way south and directly to the Mulan Prairie to avoid the pursuers from the Tiannan area.
But after thinking about it casually, he immediately dismissed the idea.
Because he was unfamiliar with Mulan Grassland and had no idea what the situation was like there, he was completely in the dark.
If a person from the south of the country rashly barged in, he would undoubtedly be courting death.
So, after much consideration, I decided to head north.
About five days after Han Li entered the Boundless Sea, this group of righteous and evil cultivators also entered the ocean in large numbers.
Not long after they entered, Ye Changsheng also arrived in Fengri City. After finding out the news, he also entered the Boundless Sea.
Ye Changsheng turned into a faint golden light and sped away, moving forward at the normal speed of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After going hundreds of miles deep into the boundless sea, he felt that the spiritual energy around him was almost thin and almost non-existent.
From now on, all consumption cannot be replenished from heaven and earth.
You can only consume your own pills.
The sea water beneath your feet is extremely turbid, and occasionally one or two ferocious sea beasts would jump out of the sea.
Releasing his spiritual sense to the fullest, Ye Changsheng searched the nearby sea.
Soon, teams of monks were noticed appearing on the surrounding sea. They spread out, forming a large net, and rushed towards the boundless sea in all directions.
Ye Changsheng flew over quickly and learned from a group of cultivators that those Yuanying stage cultivators were all flying towards the northwest.
So he immediately chased in the northwest direction.
Five days later, Ye Changsheng learned from a group of cultivators that those Nascent Soul True Beings had changed direction and were flying towards the northeast.
It seemed that Han Li also realized that someone was following him, so he kept changing directions.
And those Yuanying Zhenren people, using various secret techniques, were able to sense that he was changing direction and were constantly making adjustments.
After chasing for such a long time, these Yuanying Zhenren were already filled with anger towards this little Jindan cultivator.
Needless to say, once you meet this person, you'll definitely have some venting to do.
Ye Changsheng followed the guidance of the disciples from various sects of righteousness and evil, and soon caught up with those righteous and evil Nascent Souls.
In front of him, a Yuanying Zhenren, those righteous and evil disciples did not dare to hide anything, so Ye Changsheng hardly spent much effort to see the backs of those Yuanying Zhenren.
Four or five beams of light appeared in front of them. When they found that there was another fellow like him behind them, they stopped.
"Excuse me, brother, who are you?" A middle-aged man in brocade robe turned around and asked with a bow.
"I am a casual cultivator from Dongyu Country. I heard that the Xuantian Immortal Vine was born here, so I wanted to come and take a look. I believe you fellow Taoists won't mind, right?" Ye Changsheng said with a grin.
"No, no, the spiritual objects of heaven and earth are for those who are destined to get them. We all rely on our own abilities. Why would we mind?" said the middle-aged man in brocade robe with a smile.
At the same time, he was also puzzled in his heart, wondering where did such a Yuanying cultivator come from in Dongyu Country?
There are a number of Yuanying cultivators in the Tiannan region, and the sudden appearance of such a person is really suspicious.
However, he had no intention of investigating this person's identity now.
No matter who this person is, everything will be decided after we see the Xuantian Immortal Vine.
There is no need to waste time and energy at this time.
The Nascent Soul cultivators behind him had the same idea.
"Since you are also here for the Xuantian Immortal Vine, how about you come with us?" said the middle-aged man in brocade robe.
"Then I will be disrespectful to refuse!"
Ye Changsheng laughed and his escape light fell behind the five people.
After some conversation, Ye Changsheng learned that among these five people, two were from the evil path, two were from the righteous path, and one was from the Nine-Nation Alliance.
Including him, the group of six people, each with their own ulterior motives, flew silently into the boundless sea.
During this journey, Ye Changsheng also adopted his fake name: Han Feiyu!
Of course, the other five people also knew that this was most likely a pseudonym, and they also guessed that he was most likely in disguise, so they all secretly guessed his identity in their hearts.
After flying forward for thousands of miles, suddenly, the man in brocade robe stopped and tilted his ear as if listening to something.
After listening for a few breaths, his face lit up and he said, "Everyone, the direction has changed again, but that guy is less than a thousand miles away from us!"
"Walk!"
Rays of light quickly changed direction and flew towards the depths of the boundless sea. Ye Changsheng followed behind these five people with flickering eyes.
A distance of a thousand miles can be reached very quickly for a Nascent Soul cultivator.
The five people in front immediately increased their speed, a hint of joy appeared in their eyes, and they rushed forward in a hurry.
Ye Changsheng also sped up and followed them. However, after he flew hundreds of miles, a look of doubt suddenly appeared on his face.
Then, Ye Changsheng slowed down and slowly distanced himself from the people in front.
The five Nascent Soul cultivators in front were very surprised to see this scene. They didn't know why Ye Changsheng suddenly slowed down.
But no matter what the person behind them was doing, their target was always the Xuantian Immortal Vine, so they all rushed forward quickly.
Ye Changsheng looked at their gradually disappearing escape light, a smile appeared on his face, and suddenly he changed direction and sped away.
"Han Li is a really cunning guy. I don't know how he deceived the perception of these Nascent Soul cultivators!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
If it weren't for my incredibly strong spiritual sense, I probably wouldn't have noticed this abnormality.
Ye Changsheng sped all the way, and after flying for hundreds of miles, he finally saw a green light in front of him.
One of the figures had an extremely gloomy face and flew forward quickly.
That appearance was undoubtedly Han Li!
When noticing his appearance, Han Li, who was in the escaping light, his expression suddenly changed. He flew forward frantically, his speed suddenly increased, and his face turned pale.
It looks like a secret technique similar to Blood Shadow Escape was used.
A smile appeared on Ye Changsheng's lips. It seemed that Old Demon Han also regarded him as one of the Nascent Souls who wanted to capture him.
His speed suddenly increased, and Ye Changsheng caught up with Han Li's escape light not long after.
A look of despair appeared in Han Li's eyes. He suddenly stopped, and a small green sword flew out of his sleeve and slashed towards Ye Changsheng.
At the same time, four or five yellow lights flew out of the storage bag. Those yellow lights floated in the air, quickly grew larger, and turned into puppets like demon tigers.
Almost every one of them has the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage. These puppets opened their mouths and spewed out yellow light, attacking Ye Changsheng.
It looks like he wants to fight to the death!
"Bang!"
After the small sword slashed over, Ye Changsheng flicked his finger and the magic weapon was directly bounced away.
At the same time, he swung his sleeves, dispersing all the yellow light.
With a half-smile on his face, Ye Changsheng said calmly: "Brother Han, I haven't seen you for many years. Your way of greeting is really unique!"
Upon hearing the voice, Han Li's body suddenly froze.
A look of disbelief appeared on his face and he opened his eyes wide, full of surprise and shock.
Even someone as scheming as Han Lao Mo was shocked beyond words when he connected this voice with the person in his memory.
"you……"
He stood in the air, dumbfounded, too surprised to speak.
"What? Can't recognize it?"
Ye Changsheng smiled faintly, took off the Qianhuan mask from his face, changed his body shape, and restored his original appearance.
"Ye...Master Ye...Uncle, is it really you?!" Han Li stared in amazement at Ye Changsheng, whose whole body was glowing with a faint golden aura. The shock in his heart was difficult to describe in words.
It's really him!
After disappearing for eighty years, he reappeared, and became a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After scanning with his spiritual sense over and over again in disbelief, Han Li confirmed that the person in front of him was indeed Senior Brother Ye.
Oh, no, now it’s Uncle Ye.
How could he be so rebellious?
In just eighty years, he actually cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage. How is this possible?
Han Li opened his mouth, only to feel his mouth become messy as the wind blew. For a moment, his emotions were so complicated that they were difficult to describe.
He worked hard for so many years and barely formed a pill, but the other party had already reached the Nascent Soul stage in the blink of an eye.
This made Han Li deeply feel the unfairness of this world!
The gap between people is too big!
Looking at Ye Changsheng, whose aura was oppressing him to the point where he could hardly breathe, Han Li recalled some of his previous thoughts.
Decades ago, he took Qu Hun and sneaked into a family of immortal cultivators in Yuanwu Kingdom to form an elixir.
At that time, he was secretly delighted to have a Jindan-level fighter.
He thought to himself that Senior Brother Ye thought he was betraying him by using the Blood Condensing Five Elements Pill. In fact, he never thought that he had such a powerful weapon as Qu Hun, right?
If one day I could meet Senior Brother Ye again and let him see Qu Hun, I'm sure he would regret it, right?
At that time, Han Li had such thoughts in his mind, and felt a little proud and secretly happy.
Han Li is also an ordinary man, so naturally he can't help but compare himself with Ye Changsheng, who has always been mysterious, superior to him, and has also betrayed him.
Han Li felt secretly happy when he thought of Ye Changsheng respectfully calling Qu Hun "senior".
At this time, he felt very sorry that Senior Brother Ye was not in Huangfeng Valley.
And not long ago, after Han Li himself formed a golden core, he became even more eager to meet Ye Changsheng.
It took him only a hundred years to achieve Dan-forming. This kind of talent is rare among Dan-forming cultivators!
This is just the status of a natural spiritual root. The age at which Han Li formed his core was definitely relatively young!
At the moment when the Dan was successfully formed, Han Li wondered whether Senior Brother Ye had succeeded in forming the Dan now?
He has dual spiritual roots, and he doesn't have a miraculous item like the small bottle. It would be extremely difficult for him to form a pill, right?
It is very likely that Senior Brother Ye is now struggling with the bottleneck of Jindan.
Thinking of this, Han Li really wanted to see Senior Brother Ye respectfully calling him Uncle Han.
Han Li is not a saint, he is also a mortal and a very introverted person. He would feel secretly happy when he sees that people who were doing better than him in the past are now not as good as him.
Unfortunately...
He never expected to meet again in this situation.
He never imagined that the Senior Brother Ye who was so popular back then is still so popular now.
And there is a trend of becoming more prosperous!
Nascent Soul Stage, this is a realm that I dared not even imagine, why did he reach it so quickly?
At this moment, Han Li wanted to look up to the sky and sigh.
He felt that if this continued, Ye Changsheng would soon become his inner demon.
Every time they met, he suppressed himself tightly, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger.
This really broke Han Li's defense!
He always compared himself with Ye Changsheng, hoping to catch up with and surpass him one day.
But now, let alone overtaking, even catching up is becoming increasingly difficult!
