A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

"Is this Qixialian famous? Does it have any special purpose?" Han Li's unhurried voice came from behind the monks.

Upon hearing this voice, the monks surnamed Jian and the others felt a chill in their hearts. Their minds immediately became clearer, and they looked back at Han Li unnaturally.

These people have all seen the power of gold-eating insects. Just the few of them working together might not be able to match these strange insects. Now that they had discovered such a precious thing, they subconsciously felt a little uneasy.

Even Jin Qing, the person who strongly invited Han Li to come with him, showed a hint of hesitation.

With Han Li's scheming mind, he could roughly tell what they were thinking by looking at their expressions, and a trace of self-mockery flashed through his eyes.

But this strange feeling was quickly concealed in his heart, and he continued to ask as if he didn't know anything on his face:

"The name Qixialian is very strange! I have read a lot of classics! Why don't you have any impression of it?"

The monks on the other side looked at each other, and Hu Yue coughed dryly before explaining to Han Li with a smile:

"It seems that fellow Taoist Han has always been busy practicing and seldom comes into contact with things other than cultivation. Even if fellow Taoist Taoist Han searches through all the spiritual herbs books, he probably won't be able to find the name Qixialian. But it is in the legends and stories passed down by mouth. , Qixialian is something that often appears. It is said that mortals can be brought back to life after taking it, and bones can be regenerated into flesh. Immortal cultivators can greatly increase their cultivation level by taking it, or even rise to one level. This is a legendary thing from the immortal family!"

After saying these words, even though Hu Yue was wary of Han Li, she still couldn't hide the excitement on her face.

"Really or not, so magical?" Han Li narrowed his eyes and said as if he didn't believe it.

"I don't know about this. Because if we hadn't seen this Qixia Lotus with our own eyes today, we wouldn't have believed that such a thing existed in the world! However, there must be monks who would spend a lot of spiritual stones to buy it. This is true. Yes," Hu Yue said with a smile.

"That's it!" Han Li nodded lightly, no longer looking at the Qixialian, but lowered his head to observe the extremely white bones, showing a rather interested expression.

Seeing that Han Li was indifferent and showed no intention of taking it all for himself, the others secretly let out a sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist Jian, go and pick the Seven-Hydron Lotus! After the auction, we will divide the spirit stones equally. Fairy Shi, please check if there are any formation restrictions near the pond." Hu Yuechong said to the monk surnamed Jian and the secret envoy of Shi Die. With a wink, he took the opportunity to say.

After hearing this, the two men looked at Han Li thoughtfully and agreed.

After feeling that Han Li's strength was too strong, these people couldn't help but unite and became a little xenophobic towards Han Li.

After hearing this, a trace of hesitation flashed across Jin Qing's face, as if he wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't say a word.

At this time, Han Li was half-crouched beside the skeleton, examining something carefully, his expression as usual. This made Hu Yue, who had been watching him carefully, feel slightly relieved.

"There are no restrictions near the pool. Fellow Daoist Jian can pick it with confidence." Shi Die said with certainty after checking it with several magic tools.

When the monk surnamed Jian heard this, he immediately walked over with great joy.

"Be careful. I heard that Qixialian cannot be touched with magic weapons or anything like that. It can only be picked off by hand. Otherwise, it will wither immediately!" Hu Yue's expression changed, as if he had remembered something, and he hurriedly He opened his mouth and reminded.

The monk surnamed Jian waved his hand without looking back, indicating that he already knew.

At this time, his mind was entirely focused on the buds of the Seven-Hydron Lotus.

Standing by the pool made of crystal jade, the monk named Jian bowed slightly, stretched out two fingers and carefully stretched out towards the three-color flower buds.

Shi Die and others couldn't help holding their breath as he followed his picking movements, watching his every move without blinking.

"Hey!" He made a surprised sound.

"What's wrong?" Hu Yue and Shi Die asked at the same time, with worried looks on their faces.

It’s hard to say whether they are worried about the people picking the food or the things they pick.

"It's a bit weird. Why are these flower roots so strong? It seems difficult to pull out." The monk surnamed Jian retracted his finger, moved it a little, and said with some doubts.

"If you can't pull it out, just pinch it off!" Hu Yue suggested after rolling her eyes slightly.

"Pinch it off directly? This will greatly reduce the value of Qixialian!" Shi Die shook his head, with an expression of disapproval on his face.

"Wait a minute, I'll use the Giant Power Technique and try again." The monk surnamed Jian took out a yellow talisman, patted it on his body, then raised all five fingers and firmly grasped the place three inches below the flower bud. Just pull it out hard.

"Wait a minute!" Han Li, who was studying the bones, suddenly stopped him without raising his head.

Hu Yue and others' hearts trembled for a moment, and they became a little surprised and confused.

The monk surnamed Jian also felt chilled in his heart, but when he looked at the dazzling flower buds close at hand, his heart skipped a beat, and he exerted force on his palm as if he had never heard of it.

But the Qixialian remained as if it were made of iron.

Now the monk surnamed Jian was even more anxious. Almost without thinking, he tightened his fingers and changed from pulling to pinching.

Now the flower bud finally reacted, trembling slightly, then suddenly shrank into the pool and disappeared without a trace.

"Plop" sound. The monk surnamed Jian, who was not lifted up, was pulled into the pool by the huge force from the flower stem, and the milky white water splashed everywhere.

The stone fairy was closer and was immediately hit in the face by several drops of water.

Immediately, a scream came!

"Poisonous, this water is poisonous!" The female cultivator covered her face with her hands and shouted in shock and anger.

Then she hurriedly reached into her storage bag and took out a red medicine bottle, poured out a handful of fiery red pills, and poured it into her small mouth in panic.

At the moment when he took the elixir, Hu Yue and Jin Qing saw a rotten face covered with yellow blisters and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Even Han Li's expression changed slightly when he saw it.

The stone fairy had only become a few drops of debasement before she became like this. What about the monk surnamed Jian who fell into the pool?

Thinking of this, Jin Qing and others looked at the jade pond filled with milky white water.

There has been no news from that person since he fell into the pool. Neither his screams nor his screams were heard, and he was seen struggling to call for help.

They felt a little scared!

At this time, Shidie finally stopped moaning and tore off a corner of her dress to cover her head tightly. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the pool with a look of resentment in her eyes.

"Gululu" a string of water bubbles floated out from the depths of the pool. Then, a rotting corpse floated out of the water.

Everyone turned blue.

Judging from the remaining clothing on the corpse, it was the corpse of the monk named Jian.

It's just that at this time, he was riddled with holes, his body was dripping with bones, his eyes were empty, and his eyes had long since turned into nothing, which made people feel chilly just looking at him!

"How could it be like this? How could the thousand-year-old stone milk be so poisonous?" Hu Yue murmured in disbelief.

"Thousand-year-old stone milk is not poisonous, but if someone poisons the pool, it will be another matter." Han Li stood up and said slowly with a breath.

"Fellow Daoist Han! You just shouted to stop. Do you already know that the pool is poisonous?" Shi Die asked Han Li coldly, her voice hoarse.

"Whether it's poisonous or not, I don't know. But this Qixialian is not so easy to pick, I can tell. Look at the right hand of this skeleton!" Han Li tapped the bones under his feet with his toes. He said animatedly.

After hearing this, Hu Yue and others couldn't help but look carefully, and they showed strange expressions.

The entire right hand bone of the white bone was not only black, but the index finger was also incomplete and missing a small section. The fracture was uneven, as if it had been bitten off by something.

Han Li didn't look at the confused expressions of the others, nor did he explain anything. Instead, he stared at the pool with a cold light in his eyes.

In the milky white water, the "Seven Clouds Lotus" surfaced again at some point, still glowing brilliantly, but the eyes of Hu Yue and others looking at it were like poisonous scorpions.

Without saying a word, Han Li opened his fingers, and five small fireballs floated on his fingertips. Then he flicked his fingers slightly, and the fireballs formed a straight line and shot towards the seven rosy clouds.

Jin Qing and others were shocked, but because of the previous incident, they did not stop Han Li from taking action.

"Bang" "Bang"...

A series of explosions were heard, and the Qixialian swung from side to side a few times in the firelight, then suddenly retracted into the water. Then the black shadow flashed, and something flew out of the water, shooting towards Han Li like an arrow.
