Chapter 220: By the way
Speaking of which, the reason why Han Li was able to kill the golden-robed man that this mirage beast had turned into with a single blow seemed to be only for a moment, but in fact, he had already been prepared.
The first time he almost fell for the illusion and cut off his arm, he had already secretly used the mystic magic to see through his true body hidden in the stegosaurus, and the phantom light and the golden-robed man were just deeper illusions.
He will plan the plan, and combine the seventy-two green bamboo bee cloud swords in his body in advance, and take advantage of the other party's getting carried away, he suddenly attacked, and this is the only one blow.
With a single move, Han Li's Cloud Sword shot back with all the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, and after a slight circle, they all submerged into his body.
He glanced at the corpse of the golden-robed man floating on the surface of the lake, flew down, and after a slight ripple on the surface of the water, his toes lightly touched the water, and after a circle of ripples, he stood firmly on the water.
He bent down, and after probing the man with his divine sense for a moment, he raised his right hand and pointed like a knife, stabbing into the lower abdomen of the golden-robed man, and suddenly pulled out, and dug out a purple-black demon core the size of a walnut.
After the demon core was gone, the body of the golden-robed man suddenly swelled and became larger.
But seeing that pieces of fine golden scales soon appeared on the surface of the corpse's skin, the golden dragon robe worn outside was also quickly broken, and the entire human body gradually lengthened, and finally turned into a dragon-shaped beast without horns and claws, slowly sinking towards the depths of the lake.
Han Li hesitated for a moment, then his body moved, cast a water avoidance spell, and burrowed into the lake.
As soon as he swept his gaze to the bottom of the lake, he saw the body of the mirage beast sinking in front of a palace at the bottom of the lake.
The water of the lake is a hundred feet deep, and the light at the bottom of the lake is very dim, but the palace is an exception, its whole body is as crystal as white jade, exuding a white light, it looks like a crystal palace.
When Han Li approached the palace, he found that there was an almost transparent film of light shrouded in its periphery, which seemed to be a kind of prohibition similar to a water avoidance charm, isolating the entire lake.
He didn't enter it immediately, but his body moved, and he came to the body of the demon beast, probed with two fingers, inserted it into its body, and jerked it out.
Han Li remembered that the person from the Impermanence Alliance had said that this demon beast might still have mirage blood, and he was thinking about refining it, but after tossing for a long time, he couldn't refine a single drop, and finally had to give up.
After stripping the usable materials from the corpse of the demon beast, he returned to the front of the palace, cast a spell, and easily passed through the light film shield on the periphery and came to the gate of the palace.
I saw the crystal palace in front of me, the pillars are lined up, the eaves are flying, and the motives are carved with all kinds of flowers, birds, fish and insects, which looks exquisite, not like a monster lair at all, but like a certain immortal mansion.
Han Li raised his hand and touched the temple door, his palm suddenly pressing down.
Just hear a "snort" sound.
Two white jade doors, three feet high and one foot thick, slowly opened inward.
Han Li's eyes flashed slightly, and he walked in through the open door of the cave.
The interior of the whole hall is not furnished, only two rows of round stone pillars are lined up on both sides of the hall, and around these stone pillars, there are several hill-like objects, which are full of flowers and greenery.
He glanced at the objects slightly, and couldn't help but secretly speak.
Those piles of small mountain bags were all kinds of spirit stones and magic weapons, including both high-quality magic weapons and ordinary-quality magic weapons, mixed together, dizzying.
Only then did he remember that what he had seen in the Luosha Sect a few days ago was not that the sect had been too badly damaged, but that the magic weapons and artifacts in the sect had all been swept here by this mirage beast.
This beast obviously has a habit of collecting treasures, and most of these savings here are the ones he has accumulated by slaughtering cities and destroying sects again and again over the years, but now he has made all of them into wedding dresses for himself.
Han Li's gaze searched carefully among these hills for a moment, and he suddenly caught a glimpse of a translucent figure revealing behind a golden dragon chair in the depths of the main hall.
He immediately walked over briskly and walked around to the back of the dragon chair.
I saw a whole snake-like thing exposed behind the dragon chair, the whole body was clear and transparent, it looked like some kind of crystal, but it was not cold and hard to the touch, but there was a sense of silk fabric-like flexibility.
Undoubtedly, this thing must be the spirit shell shed by the mirage beast.
Han Li immediately put the spirit shell into the storage bracelet, then took out several storage rings and began to count the mountains of treasures in the main hall and collect them for himself.
After a small half of the day's inventory, the storage ring he wore on his hand and the storage bracelet on his wrist were all occupied by these treasures.
Most of them are some spirit stones, and there are mostly low-grade spirit stones and middle-grade spirit stones, as for the top-grade spirit stones, there are very few, and the total is only six or seven hundred.
If the rest of the spirit stones are exchanged, it is estimated that they can also be exchanged for another three or four hundred top-grade spirit stones.
It seems that the scale of the sects in this vicinity is not large, and it is no wonder that if they really have enough strength, they will not be entrenched here by this beast for so many years, disturbing lawlessness.
In addition, there were more than 100 magic weapons and hundreds of magic weapons, as well as some strange spiritual materials, but there was not a single elixir.
Those magic weapons didn't need to be mentioned, but there were many of those magic weapons that were of acceptable grade, so they were naturally useless for Han Li, but it would be quite appropriate if they were given to Meng Yungui and the others.
As for the golden long sword used by this beast before, after he confirmed it again, he found that this sword was a metallic Heavenly Spirit Treasure, and the grade was not below the original Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword.
Among the treasures hidden by the Mirage Beast, the number of spiritual materials was not very large, but some of the aura coming from them was very strange, and although Han Li couldn't recognize them, he also knew that they were not mortal things.
In particular, several pieces of dark gold metal the size of a human head are obviously not artificially made, but the surface is embedded with many dense lines like flower petals, and there is no cold feeling of ordinary metal to the touch, but a feeling of warmth.
In the next few days, Han Li did not leave immediately, but took advantage of the fact that he was not in the territory of the Candle Dragon Dao, summoned the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword and urged it many times, and used several sword formations that he had learned from the Qingyuan Sword Technique several times one by one.
Naturally, its power has been greatly improved, which is not the same, which makes it quite satisfying in his heart.
It wasn't until a moment before leaving Cloud Lake Island that Han Li handed over the task of killing the Mirage Beast that he had received from the Impermanence Alliance, which surprised the man wearing the deer-headed mask and seemed a little incredulous.
Han Li naturally didn't want to explain anything, and after directly taking out the demon core of the Mirage Beast and showing it to the other party to check, the other party was surprised and delighted, and immediately delivered the Immortal Yuan Stone over happily.
Speaking of which, the reason why he took on this task was mainly by the way, after all, he wouldn't really wait for ten years to wait for the mirage beast to go out, on the other hand, it was because this beast was born for a disaster, and he felt a trace of compassion in the depths of his heart.
......
A few months later.
As soon as Han Lifang returned to the Candle Dragon Dao, he rushed directly to the Taixuan Side Hall without the slightest delay.
It was still empty, and the gray-robed old man sat behind the red case, sleepy-eyed, as if he was napping, and when he heard footsteps, his eyes opened a slit.
"Hey, it's you kid, why did you come back so soon? Could it be that you feel that the task is difficult and cannot be completed, and you plan to use merit points to compensate?" the old man sat up straight, yawned, and said lazily.
Han Li didn't say anything, he waved his hand and took out a storage bag and placed it on the red case.
The old man was slightly stunned, picked up the storage bag and released his consciousness and swept it slightly, and the sleepiness in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
"Hehe, the kid really lived up to the old man's high expectations, and completed the task so quickly, not bad. ”
"It's just a fluke, when I got there, the mirage beast happened to be out of town, so I completed the task without a hitch. Han Li said lightly.
"You're really lucky, but luck, sometimes it's also a kind of strength. The old man looked Han Li up and down, and laughed a few times, but he didn't know if he really believed it.
He immediately put away the spirit shell of the Mirage Beast, turned over and took out a cyan jade album and a jade pen, sketched on them a few times, and then took Han Li's Elder Token.
The white light flashed, and there were already two hundred more merit points in it.
"Alright, your first mission is complete, go back and rest well, remember to pick up the second mission in a few days. The old man returned the token to Han Li and said.
"Excuse me, senior, let's get the next task now. Han Li said directly.
"The kid is diligent, unlike those old fritters. The old man glanced at Han Li and nodded.
Hearing this, Han Li couldn't help but touch his nose.
Time is not abundant for me, so I naturally have to hurry up.
The old man said and turned his hand to take out the cyan book, looked at it again, stopped at a page after a while, and said slowly:
"There's a task here that is urgent, so I'll assign it to you."
"But I don't know what the task is?" Han Li asked unhurriedly.
"The sect has a large vein of fire yuan crystal in the southwest of the ancient cloud continent in Huoyun Ridge, and the miners there have often disappeared for some reason recently, so the vein has to be temporarily closed. A Mahayana elder stationed in the mine entered the mine to investigate, but his whereabouts were unknown, so he reported to the sect and requested that an inner sect elder be sent to investigate the reason, and by the way, the Huo Yuan Crystal that had been there for nearly ten years was transported back. This task should not be difficult, but the task reward is quite a lot, 180 merit points. The old man shook his head and said.
"Understood, since the task is urgent, let's set off here. Hearing this, Han Li nodded and said.
As he spoke, he handed over the token without saying a word and received the task, without the slightest delay, turned around and walked outside.
"Interesting boy......" The old man said with a grin as he looked at Han Li's back.
