Five Immortals Gate
Chapter 1960: The sharp mountain is like a sword
Soon, Fanan made a decision. The older "Higanbana" would, of course, have better effects in alchemy, but those cultivators just didn't want to risk their lives.
That's why they stipulated that every mission must have at least three 300-year-old plants, so that if these cultivators couldn't pick them in the outer area, they could only venture deeper.
But generally speaking, these cultivators would try to run as far as possible so that they could cruise in the outer area.
So "Higanbana" over 600 years old is quite rare, not to mention that so many can be picked at one time.
"You said you are sure, how sure are you?"
"Half sure!"
After hearing this, Fanan's eyes flashed a few times, and he was judging whether Li Yan's words were true or false.
"Half? If I find out that you are seeking death on purpose, what will be your fate?"
"Sir, that is the 'Underworld River'. Who would want to sink forever? If that's the case, I can just jump in during any mission!"
Fanan looked at Li Yan, whose eyes were already bloodshot. This man wanted to take advantage of the fact that he still had someone in his hand and really wanted to fight.
Fanan didn't believe that Li Yan was half sure. He thought that at most 30% was good. However, the conditions proposed by Li Yan were indeed very tempting.
Li Yan bowed, and his heart was also very uneasy. He made such a condition after understanding the value of "Bianhua".
This condition was a conclusion he came to after careful consideration for a long time. Otherwise, he would either fail to impress the other party or arouse the other party's suspicion...
For a while, there was a brief silence between the two. Li Yan kept bowing and saluting, while Fanan stood there with a slight change in his expression.
"How much time do you need?"
Fanan stared at Li Yan.
"I need thirty days for this mission. In fact, including the rest time, it is only about the time of two missions.
But I can bring back six 'Bianhua' that are more than 600 years old. I think there is no loss and it is a good result."
Li Yan immediately gave his time.
"One month? That won't work. I will give you at most 20 days. If you don't come out in 20 days, I will send people in to catch you. You will have to bear the consequences yourself!"
Fanan immediately rejected Li Yan's proposal. How could he give such a long time and let the other party stay outside.
Although no one could escape from the "Minglun River", even so, Fanan immediately gave a direct refusal, which reduced the time by one third.
After hearing this, Li Yan sighed in his heart. He wanted to try to buy himself more time, but it was a pity that Fanan's tone was so firm.
Li Yan knew that this should be the other party's bottom line, and if he couldn't complete it, then the next step would be the beginning of his life worse than death.
This Fanan has always been extremely cautious. Even though they have lost their cultivation and their tendons and veins have been abolished, the other party is still worried. Such a person is not easy to deal with.
"Then follow your words, the first condition I said..."
Li Yan said here, his tone hesitated again. This condition was just an excuse for him, and he had to insist on it.
Otherwise, after he suddenly proposed such an exchange condition and agreed to it easily, Fanan would definitely doubt his intentions.
"Okay, as long as you fulfill your promise this time, I will transfer one person to you first!"
Fanan finally agreed, but Li Yan used six "Bianhua" that were more than 600 years old, and he was only willing to agree to adjust one person.
And in fact, Fanan also buried a trap in this sentence. He would not disobey the order of Lord Minghuang.
So even if he adjusted the people to Li Yan, it would be similar to the current situation of Bro and the other two. The life span would not be much, almost gone...
Li Yan returned to the cell, still thinking about things in his heart. His plan was getting closer step by step, but the result was still dangerous and unknown. He was just gambling with his life.
Seeing Bro's puzzled eyes looking at him, Li Yan shook his head slightly. Bro did not ask any more questions, but fell asleep again.
Li Yan also sat cross-legged and closed his eyes. He needed to adjust his physical condition to the best level...
A few days later, Li Yan and the other four came to the twisted zone again.
"Twenty days, must appear in this place!"
A fierce ghost in the air looked at Li Yan coldly, and then he and another fierce ghost did not wait for Li Yan to answer, and their figures flashed and disappeared in an instant.
The order they got this time was that the mission of this cell was twenty days, which was an extremely rare thing.
Maybe it happened before, but these two fierce ghosts have never experienced it, which made them very confused.
Moreover, Lord Fanan personally gave the order that if Li Yan did not come out in twenty days, they would go in and catch these people.
This made the two evil spirits puzzled and unwilling at the same time. The twisted space was the place they were most reluctant to enter, and they were even more afraid of the "Underworld River".
Therefore, they severely warned Li Yan that if the other party forced them to enter, they would definitely teach Li Yan a lesson without hesitation.
Li Yan entered the twisted space without saying a word under the suspicious eyes of the old man, the yellow-haired young man, and Bro.
The moment he stepped in, he immediately attacked like the wind, and knocked the unprepared old man and the yellow-haired young man unconscious.
Bro did not find it strange. These two were basically in Li Yan's hands, and they were rarely awake.
Then Li Yan took Bro and walked a long way inside before stopping.
"This time, I made some deals with Lord Fanan. I will go out in 20 days. You should stay here and wait.
If I don't come out in 20 days, you can go out first. Maybe the punishment for you later will be smaller. After all, your body can't bear any punishment!"
As Li Yan spoke, he kept observing the surroundings.
Bro understood what Li Yan meant in an instant. Just as he was about to speak, Li Yan had already turned around with the two and flew away quickly.
Only Bro was left there. Looking at Li Yan's disappearing blurry figure, Bro shook his head slightly.
No matter what the result is, I am satisfied to live so many more days and see the people who tortured me are tortured to death.
Li Yan carried the two people and rushed straight to the "Ghost Thorn" Mountain.
After he ran for a distance in the "Ghost Thorn" Mountain, his speed did not slow down. He turned and rushed to the "Minglun River".
Li Yan was very fast this time. He saw the water of the "Minglun River" soon. Before he reached the edge of the "Ghost Thorn" Mountain, he put down the two unconscious people.
Then he suppressed the two people with the "Ghost Thorn" again, fearing that the two people would suddenly wake up and ruin their own things.
Li Yan planned to pick the "Bianhua" himself. With some preparation, he should be able to suppress his pain.
But if these two people use it, they will definitely not be able to control it. After screaming here, Li Yan's fate can be imagined.
After dealing with the two, Li Yan turned around and pulled a "ghost thorn" tree in the distance. This time the distance was still far, and the sound did not cause any disturbance on the river bank...
Next, Li Yan spent nearly two hours before he returned to the "ghost thorn" mountain with a tired face.
Needless to say, the pain of picking "Bianhua" was transmitted.
In the process of drawing water from the "Minglun River", Li Yan was as slow as a snail in almost every step. He had to control himself not to make any sound.
And the various preparations he made in the early stage were finally reflected at that moment. Everything could be judged in advance, and he finally came back alive.
Li Yan quickly put away the remaining "Bianhua" that turned into a flower bud after drawing water from the river.
Then, he walked quickly to the place where the old man and the yellow-haired young man were hiding, and soon got the two out.
He just looked at the direction of the "Minglun River", his face was wooden, and his arms swung open and shook violently.
The two people who were still in a coma suddenly turned into two afterimages in the air and flew out, just like black arrows, shooting straight towards the "Minglun River".
Less than a mile away, Li Yan didn't need to spend any effort at all, just as easy as flicking away two dust particles.
Under Li Yan's gaze, he didn't hear any sound, and the two black shadows directly sank into the "Minglun River".
Li Yan then stared at the place closely, and after watching for a while, the river there was still calm, and the two people's involvement did not show any ripples.
He had to kill the two people. He wanted to restore his body this time, so it was impossible to keep them by his side, and he didn't know what was going to happen to him later.
Maybe he had to take the "Higanbana" back, so this time picking the "Higanbana" by himself might be exposed.
So, although the two of them still had value, they could die...
Li Yan still didn't leave. Although he was anxious about time, he had to make sure that the two people were really dead in there.
About half an hour later, Li Yan walked back to the place where the "Higanbana" was placed, picked it up, and flew to the back.
Li Yan went to the place where the "Higanbana" was placed last time. After he took it out, he looked carefully. The flower bud was still only a little smaller this time.
Then Li Yan approached the "Minglun River" again, and finally kept a distance of about two miles, and began to fly along the river bank.
He was looking for a safer place. If Fa Nan followed him, his intention would be completely exposed.
Li Yan was betting on the one or two percent of luck, betting that the reason why the "Minglun River" existed for too long, these ghost cultivators had a deep-rooted belief that they could not escape from here.
Fa Nan and the ghosts must be afraid of the "Minglun River", which is a relatively safe place for him, so he must be very close to the river bank.
Li Yan walked for most of the day, and finally found a "ghost thorn" place that was as high as a mountain peak.
He then circled around here and kept checking, and the circle became larger and larger...
After about an incense stick of time, Li Yan climbed up the high peak of the "ghost thorn" mountain and began to look for a suitable place here and there.
Afterwards, he dug out a place that could accommodate him lying down, and then piled up more dark "ghost thorns" around.
When Li Yan finished all this, plus the time to draw water from the "Minglun River", it took a day and a half.
But he also took this opportunity to let the "Higanbana" that had absorbed river water have time to start merging, and this one was just for him as a backup.
With Li Yan's usual caution, of course it would be impossible for him to have insufficient river water when he was halfway through repairing his body.
And Li Yan estimated that the river water in the "Higanbana" prepared some time ago might be enough for him to rebuild his body.
Even if it was not enough, he would use that "Higanbana" first, and it was estimated that it would take more than ten days to restore part of his body.
Then the "Higanbana" that absorbed river water today could be used at that time, and he had to calculate various accidents.
Li Yan looked at the top of his head, where there was a mezzanine separated by the "ghost thorn", which was a place he spent time to deliberately empty.
There were two huge "Higanbana" on the mezzanine, and Li Yan had opened a gap above the wrapped petals.
As long as he picked up a "ghost thorn" beside him and poked it gently, the water of the "Underworld River" would pour down, and he would be basically poured on his chest and abdomen when he lay down and found a good position.
Li Yan was naked at this time, wearing only a pair of shorts. Through the gaps between the dense "ghost thorns" around him, he could still see the blue and red lights interweaving around him.
There was silence all around, and Li Yan's eyes were calm. After his chest rose and fell violently, he reached out and picked up the "ghost thorn" branch beside him.
Then, without a moment's hesitation, he stretched out his hand towards a "Bianhua" petal, and then gently pushed it.
Almost in an instant, a series of violent tremors occurred on this piece of "ghost thorn" mountain...
Bro sat on the ground. It was already the eighteenth day, and Li Yan's figure still did not appear.
Bro guessed the real intention of Li Yan's trip. In addition to asking about the situation here at the beginning, Li Yan seemed to have the idea of escaping.
In the following months, everything suddenly returned to normal, and he even stopped talking to him, which made Bro slowly feel desperate.
He knew that Li Yan had not made any progress and encountered the same problem as himself, and could not find a way out.
"Brother Li, will you explore the 'Minglun River'?"
Bro thought in his heart, and this thought would always come to his mind these days.
The time of this mission was suddenly extended to more than 20 days, because Li Yan wanted to find an escape route.
That day, Li Yan stayed to find Fa Nan, and I don't know what means he used to convince the other party to agree to such a long time?
Once this thought came up, Bro could no longer restrain himself, and at the same time, he was a little excited.
Li Yan didn't say too much to him, and Bro also guessed that he was afraid of being searched.
At the same time, he guessed that the reason why Li Yan didn't take any action in the past few months was that he was quietly exploring the surrounding situation, including the situation of the "Minglun River".
This time, it is possible that they are planning to really set off to explore the "Minglun River"...
But as time goes by, Li Yan still fails to show up, and Bro's bad feeling in his heart becomes stronger and stronger.
He told Li Yan some of the situations of the "Minglun River", and he certainly knew how terrifying it was.
If Li Yan really enters, there is a great possibility that he will not be able to come out again.
Bro held a piece of grass root in his hand and kept scratching it on the ground, and he became more and more irritated.
He had actually accepted his own death, but Li Yan's appearance actually made a ray of hope appear in his heart...
Bro suddenly raised his head, he heard the footsteps of someone running, and the moment he raised his head, a figure appeared in his sight.
The figure turned into a blur that merged with the surrounding dark color in the dark space, and it was not very clear, so he could not see it clearly.
Bro turned over and rolled to a pothole on the side, which was the hiding place prepared by Li Yan for him.
His body was weak, and Li Yan had lost his cultivation. It was no problem for Li Yan to carry two people at once, but it would be troublesome to take him with him.
At the distance where he was, there should be no strange monsters in the "Minglun River", but there would be other teams picking "Higanbana".
If Bro ran into them, he would certainly not be killed by the other party, but it would be no problem for the other party to force him to use his lifespan to pick "Higanbana".
Bro vaguely saw that the person who came was not holding anyone in his hand, so he was very nervous.
There was still a difference in the lifespan of the old man and the yellow-haired young man. Li Yan would not use up their lifespans at the same time. Li Yan should at least bring one person back.
