Chapter 91 Setting a Trap Together
Zhu Xianchou's eyes were filled with disbelief, yet also with relief and excitement.
He has confirmed Li Lan's identity.
It's unimaginable how Li Lan, who was devoured by the demonic soul, could escape and return to the immortal realm.
"Hope you've been well."
Li Lan smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, congratulations. You've finally collected some interest from the Zhu family today."
Zhu Xianchou said, "Originally, I planned to lie low for a few more years and find a way to deliver a fatal blow to the Zhu family. However, I was unwilling to accept that Zhu Jiuhua had the opportunity to obtain the Dao Yuan Grass."
"After all, once we obtain this item, the Zhu family can establish a glorious legacy for thousands of years... If I seek revenge, I will have even less hope."
"If I had known earlier that Ming Lanli was Brother Li Lan, I wouldn't have risked provoking the evil..."
He exclaimed with delight, "Our parting years ago was a great regret of my life. Now that Brother Li has returned, we should truly drink three thousand cups of wine together!"
It is absolutely not a forgery.
Zhu Xianchou has spent his entire life on a path of revenge, and Li Lan is perhaps his only friend.
Years ago, Zhu Xianchou had confided in Li Lan, calling him a fellow Daoist. It was because of this that Li Lan decided to save him.
"Brother Li, if I'm not mistaken, you were the one who broke through the Immortal Gate and founded the Abyss Clan, weren't you?"
Zhu Xianchou continued speaking.
Li Lan smiled. Zhu Xianchou was indeed a wise man, and he understood immediately. Li Lan did not deny it and said, "Brother Zhu, we are both from the Abyss Realm. The Abyss Clan has now settled in the Thousand Rivers Land. I look forward to Brother Zhu as much as I look forward to sweet rain!"
If the Yuan Clan could have someone like Zhu Xianchou in charge... then Li Lan would truly be at ease.
"When I heard of the founding of the Abyss Clan, I was already a member of the Abyss Clan."
Zhu Xianchou spoke solemnly, saying, "However, I am burdened with a blood feud, and it is not advisable for me to go before I have avenged it. I ask Brother Li to take me with him. If I survive, I will surely avenge the Yuan clan with my life!"
This is a promise!
Li Lan nodded: "What are your plans next, Brother Zhu?"
Zhu Xianchou glanced at Zhu Jiuhua, who was lying unconscious on the ground, and said, "This man is a good pawn! Within the Zhu Clan, he is one of the three most promising geniuses to compete for the position of Holy Son. I had previously planned to use him to infiltrate the core of the Zhu Clan and then plot my revenge."
He smiled, looked at Li Lan, and said, "However, now that we have met Brother Li, I think Brother Li must have a brilliant plan?"
Li Lan smiled and said, "As long as the news spreads and the world knows that a Daoist herb has appeared here, the entire Zhu family will surely come here."
"Given our understanding of this place, it's not impossible for us to take the initiative and wipe out all the Zhu family's geniuses..."
Upon learning that the road ahead was blocked, Li Lan had already conceived of this plan.
In any case, he must go forward and find that dragon scale, otherwise his cultivation cannot continue!
However, nowadays, to open up the ancient path, an unparalleled expert would have to step in.
Therefore, they used the news of Daoyuan Grass to lure people from all directions.
You can only catch fish in troubled waters.
In addition, with Zhu Xianchou controlling Zhu Jiuhua, things will be much easier for him.
"it is good!"
Zhu Xianchou nodded and extended his hand, saying, "Back in the Great Li of the Abyss Realm, it was a pity that I was unable to accomplish great things with Brother Li. Now that we have reunited in the Immortal Realm, we should let all the heroes of the world know that the people of the Abyss Realm can also turn the world upside down!"
In his words, his spirits soared and his ambitions soared!
Li Lan extended his hand, and the two shook hands firmly!
……
While waiting for Zhu Jiuhua to be turned into a puppet, Li Lan and Zhu Xianchou searched through all the items on his body.
Zhu Jiuhua, as expected of a direct descendant of the Zhu family, possessed many treasures: three pieces of immortal essence, more than a dozen bottles of third and fourth-grade pills, more than a dozen immortal herbs he had gathered to prepare for refining Dao Yuan Pills, and many life-saving magic artifacts!
They are rolling in money.
Li Lan didn't stand on ceremony and took all the spirit stones and other items from his body, absorbing them one by one!
This also allowed him to advance his cultivation level from the mid-Foundation Establishment stage to the late-Foundation Establishment stage.
Just one step away from forming the core!
Li Lan also took away the elixirs and spiritual medicines, as the Yuan Clan desperately needed them.
Three days later, Zhu Jiuhua was finally successfully turned into a puppet.
Li Lan carefully collected the few fluffy bits of Dao Yuan Grass that had fallen from the stone table and handed them to Zhu Xianchou. This was the key to Zhu Xianchou attracting experts from all over the world.
"go!"
The two, carrying the puppet, left through the passage indicated by the little dragon.
The passage was pitch black, but thankfully it was safe, with no evil spirits or mine demons. After a series of twists and turns, they pushed aside a rock and found themselves inside one of Zhu's mine tunnels!
Zhu Xianchou led Zhu Jiuhua away first, drawing away the Zhu family's guards along the way, while Li Lan then sneaked out of the mine.
Outside the mine, breathing in the fresh air and feeling the sunlight, Li Lan felt extremely comfortable and quickly left.
He went to a deserted mine to lie dormant, and the next evening, Zhu Xianchou came looking for him.
"Brother Li, this is what you need,"
Zhu Xianchou handed Li Lan several storage rings: "Eight pieces of Immortal Essence, five thousand mid-grade spirit stones, a dozen or so third-grade spirit herbs, and about twenty other items such as Core Formation stage magic artifacts. Any more than that and the Zhu family might notice."
Li Lan was waiting for him here, waiting for him to bring supplies!
"In addition, I have already made arrangements for the villagers of Ming Village, so you can rest assured."
"Brother Li, I'll handle things here. You should go now. We'll meet again when all the heroes of the world have gathered!"
Zhu Xianchou has now become the de facto controller of this mine, which puts Li Lan at ease. He nodded and said:
"it is good!"
The two parted ways thereafter!
Watching Li Lan leave, Zhu Xianchou's eyes were filled with emotion. After a long while, he also turned back.
……
Li Lan did not leave immediately, but found a safe place nearby and took out five thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
Start absorbing spirituality!
With a massive influx of spiritual energy, Li Lan's aura constantly changed, as if a true dragon possessed him. The spiritual energy circulated, and after a long time, his aura suddenly changed.
Name: Li Lan
Realm: Early stage of Golden Core
Cultivation Techniques: True Dragon Technique, Great Dao True Eye (Spiritual Eye), Sky-Splitting Technique (Not yet learned), Earth-Standing Technique (Not yet learned), Sun, Moon and Stars Technique (Not yet learned), True Understanding of Elixirs (Third-Rank Alchemist), Flame Technique (Mastery)...
One mid-grade spirit stone is equivalent to one hundred low-grade spirit stones. He has already consumed about two thousand of them to condense a golden core.
With three thousand coins remaining, Li Lan didn't hesitate and poured them into the Sun, Moon and Stars Technique!
Among his cultivation techniques, the Great Dao True Eye is too heaven-defying, and ordinary spirituality is completely useless. It can only be upgraded with Immortal Source Points. Otherwise, he would most like to upgrade this technique.
After all, in the Wanyuan Mountain Range, having eyes that can see everything is extremely important.
Spirituality is only useful for other cultivation methods.
If he were to upgrade the True Dragon Technique to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, he would likely exhaust his remaining spirit stones, resulting in minimal gains.
On the contrary, he now desperately needs some offensive tactics.
So he channeled his spiritual energy into the art of the sun, moon, and stars!
In an instant, he felt as if he were surrounded by a sky full of stars, watching the sun rise and the moon set, seeing the stars twinkle and fade. In that brief moment, it felt like countless years had passed...
Overwhelmed with various insights, he slowly opened his eyes.
The remaining spirit stones were all turned to dust, and his Sun, Moon and Star Technique had already achieved a minor level of mastery!
"The Sun, Moon and Stars Technique is both offensive and defensive. When it reaches its peak, it can manifest all the stars and the sun and moon in the heavens to suppress everything... I am far from being able to do that now, but with the power of the True Dragon, condensing the power of a meteorite and the radiance of an inch of the moon should be enough!"
With a thought, spiritual energy surged and boundless above his head, eventually transforming into a giant star that crashed down, smashing a hill in front of him into a huge crater.
It's practically like a miniature nuclear bomb!
Let alone an ordinary Core Formation cultivator, even a Nascent Soul expert would probably vomit blood if hit like that!
Li Lan was very satisfied. With a lift of his foot, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the city!
Soon after, he arrived at a small town, paid a certain amount of spirit stones, boarded a teleportation array, and headed to Tianzhen Prefecture!
……
Meanwhile, a message was already quietly spreading across the land of Sinful State—
"Have you heard? The Dao Yuan Grass... has appeared in the world!"
The news spread like wildfire, triggering a massive storm!
