Chapter 742 - 742: Corpse Refining Technique (1)
Li Yuanqing opened his eyes and they shined brightly. He suddenly lifted his leg and his body turned into a ray of light that disappeared into the horizon.
Not long after, a group of red-robed disciples of the Divine Fire Sect rose into the air and arrived at the place where Li Yuanqing had been hiding.
“Heavenly Master Wang is right. Someone has been here!”
“Hurry up and report to the Sect Leader. The rest of you, follow me!”
They split into two teams in tacit understanding. Two of them left the team and flew north. The others identified the direction and chased after Li Yuanqing.
In the small room in the tunnel, Celestial Master Wang stood in front of a platform with many people gathered around him. On the platform in front of them was a puppet the size of a thumb. The puppet had been broken into two halves, and there was a large area of burns in the middle.
“Celestial Master, don’t be anxious. They have already caught up. They will definitely bring her back to Tianshi in one piece!”
“This person is so bold to dare trespass on the territory of my Divine Fire Sect. Could it be that they already have some evidence?”
“How is that possible? So far, we haven’t received any news of any major sects taking action against us. They haven’t reacted at all.”
“But if it wasn’t for the discovery of those large sects, how would we explain today’s knowledge?”
“That’s true. However, we’ve always been well-informed. If we want to take action, we’ll definitely leak the news.”
They all looked a little nervous and frowned as they spoke.
“What you said is true. Those big sects are probably exaggerating. By the time they find out, we will have already completed our mission.”
Celestial Master Wang did not say a word. Some of the people around him were dressed similar to him. They were wearing casual Daoist robes, and some were wearing the Divine Fire Sect’s cloaks. They were disciples.
These heavenly masters stood in the inner circle while the disciples stood guard outside, respectfully listening to the arrangements.
“Anyway, they’ve already gone to report to the sect master. There’s no need for me to waste my time on these things. I should hurry up and refine more puppets. I should finish refining ten thousand puppets as soon as possible.”
They seemed to have come to a conclusion after their discussion. After chatting for a while, they dispersed. As for the damaged puppet, it was left behind.
Celestial Master Wang stared at the puppet and carefully sized it up. No one knew what he was thinking. After a long time, he raised his hand and put away the broken little fellow.
Li Yuanqing’s speed of escape was already extremely fast. The moment the puppet was exposed, he immediately ran away. However, even with his sharp reflexes, he could still feel a force constantly searching for him from behind.
Li Yuanqing looked around carefully.
As he ran forward, he suddenly took out a jade pendant.
This jade pendant was given to him by Wang Lan the other day. This alchemist had left him this way to contact each other.
Li Yunqing gently pinched the jade pendant. A very three-dimensional map appeared in his mind. The place where Wang Lan lived was not too far from here.
Sensing the approaching pursuer behind him, Li Yuanqing identified the direction and extended his wings to increase his speed.
This was a continuous mountainous area with a few undulating peaks, forming a very orderly terrain.
In the middle of this mountain, there were large patches of medicinal herbs. These medicinal herbs emitted a rich fragrance. Even from a great distance, one could clearly smell that rich fragrance.
Li Yunqing ran for a long time and finally arrived at this place. This Yin Wind Mountain Range was Wang Lan’s dojo.
Wang Lan was also a famous alchemist within this thousand miles. Although she usually had a bad temper, she had an extremely superb alchemy technique. She usually did not have many enemies.
Moreover, he had quite a reputation, which was why he was able to plant so many medicinal herbs in such a large area without being robbed.
Just as Li Yunqing was about to enter the mountain range, a transparent barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking him out.
“Senior! Please meet me for a moment!”
Li Yuanqing had already reverted to his original appearance. He stood in front of the mountain gate and looked inside uneasily.
After a while, Wang Lan came out with disheveled hair. He looked at Li Yuanqing in surprise, as if he had not expected Li Yuanqing to take the initiative to look for him.
“Little friend, could it be that you have the Gigantic Spirit Fruit again?”
Li Yuanqing replied,”Senior, I’m in some trouble. I wonder if you can take me in for half a day?””
Wang Lan did not pay much attention to her earlier. After she calmed down, she immediately sensed the approaching pursuers behind her.
He looked at Li Yuanqing a few times and after some consideration, he generously gave up half of his body.
“Don’t walk around. I don’t like people touching my things.”
“Thank you, Senior!”
In a flash, Li Yuanqing entered the mountain range behind him. Not long after, the pair of pursuers from the Divine Fire Sect also found this place. They silently circled around the mountain range.
“Senior Brother, the aura of that person just now disappeared here.. In my opinion, he must have entered here!”
