Chapter 70: The Man Left Behind
The monk who fought with this Hessian python was a loose monk in Wujiangfang City, named Han An.
His entry into the Hengduan Mountains this time was also in response to the Ghoul Sect's call for scattered cultivation. Because for every casual cultivator who enters the Hengduan Mountain Range, the Ghoul Sect has made a promise that they can go to the Ghoul Sect with the demon beasts they kill in exchange for various resources.
Han An was already a monk in the foundation building stage, and he was very aware of the danger of entering the Hengduan Mountain Range, and as a casual cultivator, the danger of entering the Hengduan Mountain Range would undoubtedly be much higher than that of the sect disciples and family monks.
But for some reason, he accepted the mission of the Ghoul Sect and entered the Hengduan Mountain Range. Originally, this time he was going to the depths of the Hengduan Mountains, which he was just passing through. But during the flight, he stumbled upon a cave that emitted aura fluctuations.
With his years of experience, he judged that this peaceful aura fluctuation could not be emitted by a demon beast, but most likely some kind of heavenly treasure.
So after thinking for a while, Han An chose to consume a little time and go in to explore this cave.
Han An has stepped into the cultivation realm for many years, although the foundation has not been built for a long time, but he is also quite cautious, in the process of entering this cave, in order to prevent the sneak attack of the lurking demon beasts, he took out his magic weapon in advance, and was ready to deal with emergencies.
But what he didn't expect was that in the process of entering this cave, he didn't even feel the breath of a demon beast, which couldn't help but make him a little relaxed.
When he entered the bottom of this cave, he saw the spirit plant that had just entered the third order, and for a moment he was temporarily attracted by its beautiful form.
At this time, he was the only one in the cave, so he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and after hurriedly confirming that there was indeed no other aura around, he quickly flew towards the third-order spirit plant.
At the bottom of this cave was a waterhole, and in the center of the waterhole was a small piece of land, on which was the spirit plant that had just entered the third order.
Han An crossed the waterhole while estimating in his heart how many spirit stones this third-order spirit plant could sell in Wujiangfang City. He guessed that many Xiuzhen families would rush to ask for it.
Han An had even begun to plan in his heart to send this third-order spirit plant to the Ghoul Sect's auction pavilion for auction.
But until Han An escaped from this cave, he didn't understand how the third-order Hessian python hidden under the waterhole had escaped his perception.
......
After that, Han An, who was injured by the Hessian python's sneak attack, did not come into contact with the third-order spirit plant, and he endured the injuries on his body and fought against the third-order Hessian python in the cave.
Originally, although Han An was injured by the sneak attack, the Hessian python that sneaked up on him in his perception was also not long ago, so he felt that he still had a chance.
Only if he can kill this Hessian python, then he can not only get a third-order spirit plant, but also take the body of this Hessian python to exchange resources with the Ghoul Sect.
Based on this consideration, Han An took out an elixir from the storage bag and swallowed it, allowing the injuries on his body to be suppressed temporarily.
In the end, Han An, whose injuries were suppressed, was at the bottom of the cave, fighting with this third-order Hessian python.
It was not long after they started the battle that Li Xuangang and Li Xuantian accidentally discovered the aura fluctuations caused by his battle with the Hessian python.
After the battle, the situation was not what Han An expected, and it was even a little unexpected for him.
After a period of fighting, he found that the Hessian python was not only not defeated at all, but also became more and more fierce.
At the same time, he also felt that the injuries he had suppressed with the pills began to worsen.
So in this case, he hurriedly flew out of the cave, because the space inside the cave was too small, which greatly restricted his movements.
And he had to always be careful not to hurt the third-order spirit plant.
When he got out of the cave, Han An thought that with his second-order high-grade magic weapon, he would be able to deal with this Hessian python before the injury completely broke out.
But he still thought that this Hessian python was too simple.
When he fought with him on the flat ground outside the cave, he found out that this Hessian python was actually hiding his cultivation.
It turned out that it was infinitely close to the third-order middle grade, and it was only two or three years away from breaking through to the next small realm. And this is also the reason why Han An wanted to get out of the battle but never got his wish.
When he found out that this Hessian python had accurately cultivated, Han An understood the sinister intentions of this Hessian python.
So he said to the Hessian python, which was constantly wandering around him:
"It turns out that you didn't want me to leave alive in the first place, I thought I had a chance to win, it seems that I really underestimated you brute. ”
When Han An was calculating this Hessian python, this Hessian python was obviously also calculating him.
The battle behind was fierce, and Han An wanted to use a third-order talisman that he had treasured for many years to cover his escape.
But he never found a chance to cast it.
Whether it is a demon beast or a monk, when faced with a life-and-death crisis, they will have a strong will to survive, although this will often cannot change the outcome of the battle.
Han An did not escape the calculations of the Hessian python. After performing several high-level spells, Han An's idea of escaping with one blow fell through.
This Hessian python was more difficult than he had imagined, and the several high-level spells he cast had increased the consumption of his spiritual power.
The final outcome was already doomed, and Han An, who was exhausted and had no one to support, still couldn't avoid the attack of the Hessian python.
After some reluctant resistance, it was swallowed by this huge Hessian python.
......
Most of the time, the death of a monk is quiet, such as the Wujiangfang City Loose Cultivator named Han An.
In addition to the Hessian python that killed him, only Li Xuangang and the four people who were hiding in the high ground in the distance knew the news of his death.
They didn't know the name of the foundation-building monk who had been swallowed directly by the Hessian python, nor did they know his identity.
And this point is irrelevant to Li Xuangang and the four of them, what they care about is the information they get from this battle.
The information they received was twofold. The first is that there is a Hessian python here that is close to the third-order mid-grade cultivation. The second is that there is likely to be a third-order spirit plant at the bottom of this cave.
After Li Xuangang and the four of them saw that this Hessian python had swallowed the unknown foundation building monk, they opened their mouths, stretched out the snake letter and probed around.
They knew that this was a critical moment, so they calmed down and silently maintained the aura on their bodies to make sure it didn't leak.
Finally, after lingering outside the cave for a short while, the third-order Hessian python twisted its body again and returned to the cave.
Seeing the Hessian python disappear from his field of vision, Li Xuantian quietly beckoned the other three and slowly retreated farther away.
In the second half of the night, Li Xuangang and the four of them had to sort out the entire incident, and then make a choice to determine their next actions.
In the end, after the discussion of the four people, it was decided that Li Xuangang would stay here, while Li Xuantian would take Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu along the road they came, and return to the Lingshan stronghold as soon as possible to inform the seventh uncle Li Changzhi.
The reason for this arrangement is, on the one hand, that Li Xuangang automatically asked for help, and on the other hand, there is indeed no more suitable person to stay here than him.
Although the second brother Li Xuantian's cultivation is high, his divine sense is also stronger. But the other three also knew that the injuries on his body caused by the second-order high-grade bloodthirsty crocodile had not yet been good, and he had been forcibly supporting the completion of the family's task during this time.
If there is any accident when he stays here, he can't run faster than Li Xuangang.
And Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu are even simpler, they just have too low cultivation. Their divine senses couldn't even accurately detect the cave's information from the high ground.
Therefore, after many considerations, the four of them decided to let Li Xuangang stay here. And what he needs to do is to monitor the movement of this cave before the clansmen arrive, and wait for the seventh uncle to bring the clansmen over, and provide more information for the family's actions.
In order to solve this matter as soon as possible, and to let Li Xuangang take less risk for a while, after Li Xuantian decided on the plan, he took Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu overnight and rushed to the family station in Lingshan.
Before leaving, Li Xuantian handed over a second-order high-grade talisman to Li Xuangang, and said solemnly:
"This is a piece of earth and rock talisman that I treasured, and I borrowed it from you this time, and I will return it to me when I get back, so you'd better not use it. ”
Li Xuangang took this talisman, he was a smart person, and he naturally knew what his second brother Li Xuantian meant.
So, he cracked his mouth and smiled, and said:
"Second brother, rest assured, Xuan Gang knows what to do. ”
After taking one last look at Li Xuangang, Li Xuantian took Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu and disappeared into Li Xuangang's field of vision.
Next, on the way back to the family's Lingshan stronghold, Li Xuantian and the three of them did not care about the consumption of spiritual power on their bodies, did not delay a little time, and relied on pills to restore their spiritual energy throughout the whole process.
In this way, it takes them a third less time to get back than it did to come here.
......
After Li Xuantian, Li Xuankun, and Li Xuanyu left, Li Xuangang returned to a temporary cave mansion they opened up behind him.
Then Li Xuangang opened the Sancai Isolation Array, completely isolating the perception of him from the outside.
Li Xuangang is not a reckless person, since he dares to stay here alone, he naturally has his own confidence.
And this can isolate the perception of the vast majority of monks and demon beasts, and the three-talent isolation spirit array is one of his strengths.
Regardless of the consumption of spirit stones, Li Xuangang maximized the effectiveness of the Sancai Isolation Spirit Array, and then he opened the door to the Boundary Source Space and stepped in.
