Chapter 1913 Increase the stakes
Sanheyuan is the second largest plain in Dongsheng, covering an area of more than four million square kilometers.
This is an endless plain with some not-so-high hills and three large rivers flowing through it. It is a place where mortals gather.
The land here is fertile, but that is only for mortals. Spiritual veins are rare, so not many immortal cultivators live here.
However, this is where independent cultivators live together, and although the spiritual veins are sparse, there are still a lot of them, which can basically guarantee cultivation.
The cave of the immortal Ke Liang is right on the edge of Sanheyuan.
Duo Gan and Qing Hu found a place to stay on the edge of the market town, while Huan Wei and Ba Jiu Dao openly purchased secret books in the market town.
These two real people had never been here before because there were all kinds of people here and the security was not particularly good.
Although they are both golden elixirs, it would be hard to say what would happen if they were targeted by someone.
Especially the Immortal Xiaoyao, who was close to them, had been detained by Hongye Ridge. What if they met his old enemy?
That is to say, with the support of two True Immortals this time, the two of them could collect secret books in the market with peace of mind.
After they collected the gold elixirs for a few days, they were still being targeted by others. However, no one in the market dared to openly plot against the two golden elixirs.
The collection of secrets was not very smooth. Where there are a lot of mobile population, there must be a lot of short-term behaviors. Those who understand will understand, so I won’t say more.
Fortunately, there are a large number of cultivators here, and the sporadic harvests have been continuing.
During this process, the two of them went to the market several times and accidentally "ran into" Jindan, whom they knew.
The other party were four real people, and someone greeted them with bad intentions, so Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao naturally would not be polite.
Just when the two sides were about to fight, Dogan released his divine sense from afar, "One on one is fine, but don't seek death!"
The four Jindan on the opposite side are all independent cultivators who pay great attention to cost accounting. How could they possibly attack again after discovering the aura of Yuanying?
If you hear something like "one-on-one is fine", just listen to it. If you take it seriously, you are a fool. What if you win and the immortal doesn't intend to be reasonable anymore?
In the end, the two groups just passed each other by.
Since then, there have been fewer and fewer troubles in the market.
However, whenever they went to the market town, Duo Gan or Qing Hu would still follow them in secret.
This is not because they are worried about their lives, but if anything happens to them, Hongyeling will be humiliated.
In fact, speaking of slapping people in the face, Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao's behavior of coming to Sanheyuanfang City was the real slap in the face.
The one who was beaten was none other than the Immortal Ke Liang who had once released his pressure on the two of them.
Previously, the True Immortal threatened them to pass on the message, but in the blink of an eye, they actually came to the opponent's base camp to collect secret books.
If this is not a provocation, what else can be considered a provocation?
They had been here for more than a day or two. It would be absurd to say that Immortal Ke Liang was unaware of this.
In fact, Qing Hu had discovered that there was a true immortal's spiritual consciousness that was watching Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao from afar.
After she discovered it, she and Dorgan also sent their spiritual consciousness over there.
The spiritual power of the two was not that strong, only a slight trace, but it was enough to let the other party understand: there are two true immortals here!
If you do anything to the two little golden elixirs again, please consider the consequences!
Because the other party's use of spiritual awareness was quite skillful and his ability to conceal his aura was also strong, the two could not immediately determine who it was.
If Duogan and Qinghu increase the strength of their spiritual awareness, it would not be difficult to find out the details.
But if that happens, it will not only attract the attention of the market, but it will also be a very unfriendly behavior.
After all, the other party's spiritual awareness was very weak when he observed the two golden elixirs.
It cannot be said that the immortal had good intentions. After all, he also had to consider the reaction of the market, but his malicious intent was not strong either.
The True Immortal on the opposite side sensed the two Nascent Soul consciousnesses, and instantly withdrew his consciousness and left quietly.
If Dogan and Qinghu are willing to investigate, they can just follow them and see who the other party is and what they want to do.
However, considering that they were not here to cause trouble, the two finally gave up.
After that, the Nascent Soul's consciousness never appeared around the two Golden Cores again.
Duo Gan and Qing Hu believed that there was a 99% chance that the person was the Immortal Ke Liang, and of the remaining 1% possibility, half was Qi Ya.
Anyway, the two of them did not relax and kept paying attention to Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao.
Of course, in addition to secretly protecting the two golden elixirs, the two of them also visited the market from time to time to purchase some items.
On this day, Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao really met three Jindan outside the market.
The other party did not give any reason and just challenged me to a one-on-one fight.
This time, it was Qing Hu who followed secretly. She kept her composure and did not react.
Dogan later said that if it were him, he would just tell the other person to get out.
Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao were too embarrassed to call upon their own True Immortals directly, so they just fought.
As a casual cultivator, I am not afraid of fighting, but I am afraid of no one caring about me. Now I have a true immortal as my backing, so there is nothing to be afraid of!
As a result, Huanwei fought for a long time in the first game and lost by a small margin. Ba Jiudao took over and fought for a long time before winning a narrow victory.
The last real person on the other side who had not taken action stepped forward and wanted to challenge him.
Ba Jiudao couldn't swallow this anger and wanted to fight. Qing Hu directly sent out a powerful spiritual sense and injured the opponent with one blow.
Then she said, "Is it over? I'm not a bully. Let the True Immortal behind you come out!"
In the end, no one came out, and the matter just passed.
The injury to the third Jindan's consciousness was not serious, but even in the world of immortal cultivation, injuries to consciousness are the most difficult to heal.
Compared to the other two who were injured, his injury seemed to be the lightest, but it would take the longest time and cost the most.
Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao's injuries were not serious, but they still need some time to recuperate.
However, they said that they did not want to leave Mikawahara and stayed in the city to recuperate.
After finally breaking the deadlock, the right thing to do is to continue acquiring secret books. At the same time, they also want to see what other tricks the other party has.
Qinghu's attitude was casual, but Duogan was used to seeing the deaths and injuries of low-level cultivators, so he naturally would not object.
However, this matter must be reported to Hongyeling, so a member of the Yan family who was in Sanheyuan was asked to pass on the message.
The person who delivered the message naturally knew the importance of the matter and delivered the message as soon as possible.
When Qu Jianlei heard about this, he made a decision immediately. He and Jing Yuexin rushed to Sanheyuan.
Accompanying them were four Jindans: Bentley, Rhine, Claire and Yuanyuan.
The others were guarding Hongye Ridge and also had to look after the many Nascent Souls of other races in the cave. Leaving two Nascent Souls behind was not a lot of space.
After the group arrived at Sanheyuan, they directly called the four people who had been there before and came to the side of the immortal cave of Ke Liang.
The area occupied by Keliang is not too large, only about 20,000 square kilometers, and its length and width are both more than 100 kilometers.
They did not enter the opponent's real territory, but stopped close to it.
Then everyone released four seats, one of which was specially for Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao to recuperate, and Qu Jianlei personally took care of them.
Xingzai is just a temporary residence for cultivators in the wild. Although it is very close to the True Immortal, it is not too offensive to take a rest before moving on.
But in fact, no independent cultivator dared to rest so close to Ke Liang.
The closest one is kept at 300 kilometers, and it has something to do with the Immortal Ke Liang.
Generally speaking, outsiders can only show respect to the True Immortals when they are more than 500 kilometers away.
Therefore, the distance between Qu Jianlei and the others could be considered a provocation.
There were also followers guarding the cave of Immortal Ke Liang, but no one came up to ask questions.
Qu Jianlei analyzed that this was probably because the other party recognized the aura of Qinghu and Duogan and knew that the two Nascent Souls were coming.
Normally, if Ke Liang really wanted to cause trouble, this would be a good excuse, but for some reason, his subordinates did not show up.
Some people looked at this scene in surprise, but it was obvious that anyone who could display four powerful forces in the wild was not a good person.
Not to mention that this place is close to the cave of the True Immortal, so it is not an exaggeration to say that these people are taking advantage of the spiritual veins.
So outsiders only dared to watch from afar, talking in low voices, and more and more people came.
Even so, after two hours of construction and almost dark, no one came to inquire.
However, more and more people were watching the excitement from a distance.
Can you keep your composure? Qu Jianlei asked Qing Hu to use his spiritual sense to sense the surroundings.
This surrounding area naturally includes the cave of the immortal Ke Liang.
The spiritual power used by Qing Hu was not very strong, but it was enough to be considered an invasion of other people's land.
Strictly speaking, this kind of spiritual sweep cannot be considered an invasion. It's like a glance. Is it not okay to look at someone else's yard?
But the place where the true immortals live is different, so there is no need to explain it in detail.
However, Immortal Ke Liang was really patient and remained indifferent.
Qu Jianlei even had some doubts as to whether this guy had seen through Jing Yuexin's invisible cloak, or even his own invisibility?
So he issued another order, and soon Qing Hu, Bentley and Rhine went out together.
The next moment, they actually started cutting down trees and leveling the land.
If a cultivator really wants to build a residence, the speed is actually not slow. However, when traveling in the wild, there is no need to go through so much trouble every day.
Moreover, it is easy to build a house, but it takes some time to decorate it to make it comfortable to live in, so most people choose a tent.
However, in the eyes of others, their behavior is not really a hassle.
In the eyes of the onlookers, this was a further provocation.
Although the location of the residence is not Ke Liang's territory, it is near the residence of a true immortal... who would dare to start construction easily?
At this point, the people inside finally couldn't bear it anymore, and six people came, all of them were Jindan Zhenren.
One of the Jindan was Boss Qin who blocked their way last time.
He ignored Qing Hu, Bentley and Rhine, because the Kun cultivator was obviously a Nascent Soul and he didn't have the courage to provoke him.
Boss Qin walked to the outside of where Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao were and spoke in a serious and loud voice.
“Fellow Daoists Huan Wei and Ba Jiu Dao… when I first stopped you, I wasn’t this close.”
"They are recovering from their injuries," Yuanyuan walked out of a hall, looked at him and said calmly, "Tell me what you want to say!"
