Chapter 45 It’s Really Gone
Military Advisor Ji looked at Li Yan, who had fallen to the ground and turned over to look at him, and laughed sinisterly, "Haha, can you run away? No matter what, you will end up like this."
Looking at Li Yan's silent and indifferent eyes, he thought for a moment and said, "But I don't understand, how did you find out that I was going to harm you? And how could you escape from Hong Linying's hands?"
Li Yan looked at him, dragging one leg, which was already bleeding profusely. In just a short while, it had stained the ground red along the corner of his pants. He struggled to hold on to the tree trunk beside him and slowly stood up. The hem of his tattered black robe was also stained with black blood.
He showed his white forest teeth and grinned at Military Advisor Ji, "Hehe, of course it was the handwriting left by my senior brother that told me; why didn't Marshal Hong let me go? His target is you, not me!"
Military Advisor Ji was stunned. He suddenly didn't understand what he heard, and felt that there was something wrong with Li Yan's words, but for a moment he didn't think about where the problem was.
At the moment when Ji Junshi was stunned, Li Yan suddenly slapped the tree he was holding and growled, "Then let's die together."
Ji Junshi's mind was still on Li Yan's previous sentence. Suddenly, he saw Li Yan's face was ferocious and his palm suddenly slapped the tree trunk. Before he knew what he was going to do, he felt a bad wind behind his head and suddenly cried out inwardly, "Not good." He never thought that Li Yan would set an ambush here. This place is a mile away from the ambush just now. This is something he never thought of.
At that moment, there was no time to turn around. The whole body flashed with spiritual light, and his hands kept waving behind him, but then he heard the sound of "Hua La La, Pu Pu", followed by a muffled groan, causing some birds that had just landed on the treetops to fly away to other places in the night sky again. ??
After Li Yan slapped the tree trunk with his palm, he rolled to the side again. He heard a loud noise and a heavy groan. When he turned over and raised his head again, he saw a scene that made him feel cold.
At this time, Master Ji was in a very bad state. It can be said that he was a little miserable. His black robe was cut in more than a dozen places. His left arm was pierced by two sharp hard woods about the thickness of fingers. There were some twisted black things on the tips of the wood. They were the tendons of the human body. But what made Li Yan feel cold was that Master Ji was still alive. His chest kept rising and falling. He stared at Li Yan with murderous eyes. His dark and purple face twitched from time to time, and then he walked towards Li Yan step by step.
"You are really good, really good. You can plot against me one after another." He said word by word as he walked. The blood on his elbow was spraying out like several lines of water. There was a piece of wood chips and broken branches behind him. The seven or eight rows of dense wooden thorns that were originally attacking him were cut into pieces by the wind blade he had just swung behind him. However, he only protected his back and back of the head and failed to disperse them all. Two sharp wooden thorns still pierced his left arm instantly, bringing out the blue veins inside. I don't know if the bones were injured, but at least it is difficult to use his left hand for now. Even if he recovers in the future, he may not be able to recover to the original state with his current magic power.
This is a trap commonly used by hunters to catch large monsters. It uses hard branches to cut into wooden spikes with the bottom as thick as an adult's finger and the head sharp as a sharp cone. These sharp wooden spikes are then nailed into a thick wood to form something like a mace. Then, seven or eight maces are tied together in a large wooden frame and hung between two trees. One end is tightened with a rope to tighten the trunk, and the other end of the rope is tied to a noose somewhere. When the rope is touched by external force, the noose is instantly untied, and the wooden spikes are stretched out with a whistling sound. Due to its large area, strong force, and strong inertia, it is usually within its attack range within a range of two or three feet in front of it. However, it also has a disadvantage, that is, in order not to affect the smooth flow of the forward route and increase inertia, it is usually half suspended in the air, about one or two feet above the ground. Therefore, if it is a thin animal, it only needs to lie on the ground and it will whistle over its head.
But the military advisor Ji was confused by Li Yan's words, and didn't know what he meant. He was thinking and couldn't take precautions. Secondly, he used to search for immortals in the mountains. There were no hunters there. They were either monsters or immortal cultivators. If a mortal hunter went there, he would be eaten by the stomach and killed by the sword before he could go deep into the mountains. Thirdly, the spiritual consciousness was useless against such physical mechanisms. Fourthly, he never expected that Li Yan could set ambushes in different places. It was a pity that a martial arts master in the secular world, a cultivator who had just entered the immortal world, was deceived by this.
Li Yan propped up his body with his elbows, half leaning back. "Haha, what a pity."
"I didn't expect that you, a half-grown child, are so cunning and have so many tricks. Let me see them." Master Ji had walked two or three steps in front of Li Yan and stopped. At this time, he raised his right hand and quickly tapped his left elbow and arm several times, and the blood stopped spilling.
"This time, it's really gone." Li Yan half-supported his body. At this time, he had calmed down and laughed.
Master Ji looked around, then focused his eyes and carefully looked around Li Yan. After a while, he slowly approached again. Just as he walked in front of Li Yan, he suddenly moved, and tapped with his right hand repeatedly in a daze. When he stopped moving, Li Yan had fallen on his back.
"This is the only way to be truly gone." Ji Junshi stood in the woods, looking at Li Yan lying on his back.
Li Yan said nothing, but his eyes occasionally moved, and the blood from the wound on his leg stopped flowing.
It turned out that Ji Junshi had restrained Li Yan in an instant, and also sealed the acupuncture points near the wound on his leg to stop the blood from flowing out. He didn't want Li Yan to die from excessive blood loss.
Ji Junshi raised his head and looked around. The dense trees stood in a staggered manner. Only the moonlight in the sky shone through the branches and leaves. He carefully checked around with Li Yan as the center, and indeed did not find any other traps. He was relieved, and then he looked at Li Yan on the ground. After confirming that he was restrained and could not escape, he flashed to the platform halfway up the mountain.
After a few breaths, he had come to the platform where Li Yan had set up an ambush. The huge rock on the ground had disappeared, leaving only a pit and several water bags, two stone pillars as thick as a baby's arm, and a small piece of monster tendons. He picked up the monster tendons and looked at them, then picked up a few water bags and shook them, then stood there thinking for a while, then walked quickly to the cliff behind the giant pine and looked down. He felt that the darkness was bottomless under the night, like the huge mouth of a monster full of fangs, and he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart. His current body was only stronger than that of a mortal, but it was still a mortal body. If he fell, he would be a pile of meat mud or be pierced into several pieces by the huge rocks at the bottom of the cliff.
After reading it, he basically understood how Li Yan set up an ambush. Although he was not a hunter in the mountains, he was the prey in the trap just now. He knew the process of being ambushed. Looking at these, plus how much of a veteran he was in the world, he could guess roughly.
After a few flashes, he disappeared from the platform and sank into the forest at the foot of the mountain.
Ji Junshi came to the place where Li Yan was lying on his back. A trace of pain suddenly flashed across his face, and black blood was spilling from the corner of his mouth. He quickly sat down cross-legged, took out a translucent crystal from his arms with his right hand, slowly closed his eyes, held the crystal in his hand, and began to breathe. He had not rested for the past few days, and he had just suffered a severe injury, so his body was in a very bad condition.
After more than an hour, Ji Junshi slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, his spiritual power had recovered about 70% to 80%. He looked at the turbid crystal in his hand, which had changed from translucent, and a trace of pain flashed across his face.
There is no spiritual energy here, so he can only rely on this crystal stone to recover. This crystal stone was left to him by the previous leader of the "Xunxian Lineage", who told him that "if he can embark on the path of immortality in the future, this crystal stone will definitely help him." For so many years, although he has embarked on the path of immortality, he has been reluctant to use it. Today, he used it under such circumstances.
This is a spiritual stone in the world of immortal cultivation, which contains spiritual energy and can help people practice. This is what Master Ji heard from the seniors in the sect. There is only this crystal stone in their sect, and it has been passed down for more than ten generations.
He could have returned to the inner valley of the military advisor's mansion to recover with the spiritual energy from the pool, but he had already used up nearly half of his spiritual energy. This was the result of forcibly using the wind blade technique. Originally, with his current state, he could have used up eleven or twelve wind blade techniques with all his strength, but just now, in order to deal with Li Yan, he cut off the boulder on his feet and broke the "wood raft thorns", and he had used six wind blade techniques. If he had carried Li Yan for seventy or eighty miles on the mountain road, it would have been impossible. When he returned from the cliff, the fire poison in his body had already broken out. If he had not suppressed it, he would have died before Li Yan. The half of the spiritual power in his body was not enough to suppress the fire poison, so he had to use this treasure of the sect in a hurry. Looking at the turbid spiritual stone in his hand, he was stunned for a while, and then put the spiritual stone back into his arms. He raised his right hand and pressed hard on his left elbow and upper arm. He heard two "chi chi" sounds and groaned again. Two finger-thick wooden spikes on his left elbow and upper arm shot out from the flesh and shot deep into the distance, bringing out a series of blood beads. Then his right hand quickly tapped the wound again to stop the blood from flowing. Looking at the black veins on his left arm that were either drooping or broken and hanging out of the body, he couldn't help but frown.
Then he stood up, his figure flashed, and he flew quickly in the forest. Half a light later, his figure flashed and he appeared at the original place again. Looking at Li Yan, who was on the ground with his eyes closed, Ji Junshi pointed with his right hand, and a wisp of finger wind flew out and sank into Li Yan's head.
"I know you are not asleep. Now I don't want to know how you knew my purpose. It's the same result whether you know it or not. I just didn't expect that you, a kid of fifteen or sixteen years old, are so vicious. Every trick you plot is a trick to harm others. You really make me underestimate my own disciple." Military Advisor Ji looked at Li Yan with resentment in his eyes.
It turned out that his plan was to suppress his fire poison for another half a year. By then, Li Yan would be able to cultivate to the middle stage of the first level of the Condensation Stage at least, and he would have more than 50% chance of reaching the fourth level. But now, not only has the time been advanced, but Li Yan's mana is still far from his minimum requirement, and he has also moved his roots. Now the fire poison in his body has already broken out because of his great use of spiritual power, and his current blood and qi are also greatly damaged, but there is no choice at this time. The blood and qi can be slowly replenished. Can Li Yan wait for him for another half a year? Can the fire poison in his body be restored to its previous state?
Thinking of this, Ji Junshi was extremely angry. Several years of planning, all because of this person, ended up like this.
"Am I vicious? Don't you want to use my life to exchange your life?" After a moment, Li Yan, who was underground, suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Oh? It seems that you know. I really want to find out how you know, but now I don't want to waste time. With your mentality, you can keep kicking down the water bag and spraying water on the tendons of the monster when even I can't see the loophole. If I hadn't been poisoned, I would really accept you as a real disciple." Li Yan, who was lying on the ground, had a strange look in his eyes. If he said that Master Ji went up to the platform to check and saw how the trap was arranged, he would not be surprised, but Master Ji could infer that he kicked the water bag many times, which surprised him a little. "Oh, you can even see this, teacher is really amazing." Li Yan said lightly, and at the same time thought that you still didn't see another problem.
