Then, perhaps not wanting to see Zhou Yixian and Zeng Shushu arguing anymore, she walked towards Lu Xueqi.
Lu Xueqi nodded slightly, then swept the ground around her and had her sit down next to her.
Wenmin also greeted her with a smile.
In her heart, she was actually thinking about why Xiao refused to become Li Qing'an's disciple. After all, Tianzhen Peak only had one disciple at the moment. If she became Li Qing'an's disciple, he would definitely benefit greatly from it, given his personality.
Bad relationship? Impossible!
If things weren't going well, Li Qing'an wouldn't have entrusted Xiao Luo to Xiao Huan.
Then why did Xiao Huan become an elder instead of a disciple?
A thoughtful look flashed in Wenmin's eyes.
"Sister Xueqi, Sister Wenmin!"
At this moment, Xiao Huan also came over and greeted her.
"How was it? You weren't scared tonight, were you?" Lu Xueqi asked, taking Xiao Luo from Xiao Huan's shoulder.
"It's alright! I usually travel all over the country with my grandfather, but this is the first time I've participated in a battle between good and evil!"
Xiao Huan shook her head. Although she was still a little shaken, she had seen a lot in her life, and these kinds of scenes were nothing to her!
Wen Min then interjected, "Miss Xiao Huan, do you know where Chief Li Qing'an is?"
"I don't know! Big brother told me to find Sister Xueqi and said that after the trip to the Dead Swamp, I can go to Qingyun Sect with you!"
Xiao Huan shook her head and looked at Wen Min.
"I see!" Wenmin nodded, her expression showing no change whatsoever.
However, a sense of vigilance arose within him.
Xiao Huan calls Li Qing'an "big brother".
As everyone knows, Lu Xueqi was originally considered Li Qing'an's younger sister; after Li Qing'an went to Dazhu Peak, Tian Ling'er also became his younger sister...
The more Wen Min thought about it, the clearer her mind became. She seemed to realize that Li Qing'an had a penchant for exploiting those he knew well.
And this isn't just a simple case of exploiting acquaintances; it's like killing one's own sister!
Judging from this, this girl named Xiao Huan is probably...
In the end, Wenmin sighed.
Although she wanted to find out the situation for her junior sister, it was clearly not the right time to ask too many questions.
The night passed quietly!
In the Death Swamp, the sky grew increasingly gloomy, with dense clouds gathering, as if an even greater storm was about to arrive!
However, the most dangerous part of the Death Swamp—the Inner Swamp—presents a different kind of scenery at this time.
The wind swept through the dead marsh.
The water plants on the ground swayed, and the water rippled. As far as the eye could see, there was no sign of human habitation, but it was a beautiful sight in itself.
This was a rare good day in the Dead Swamp. Under the warm sunshine, the gloomy atmosphere that usually permeated the Dead Swamp seemed to have dissipated considerably.
Dozens of feet in front of Li Qing'an, there was a thick, gray, fog-like miasma rising majestically, its boundaries invisible to the left and right, its top and bottom intertwined, with no discernible limits.
After watching the Qingyun Sect disciples finish dealing with the Changsheng Hall disciples, Li Qing'an left first, crossed the incredibly thick wall of miasma, and arrived at the Inner Swamp.
He wanted to go and see the Heavenly Tree first. According to the timeline, the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury would open in the next few days.
You should be able to run into a few of your 'good friends'.
His grudge notebook hasn't changed in a long time; he still remembers how troublesome it was when he fought the Blackwater Serpent.
Now, there's no need for such trouble.
And there was also the yellow bird he had pre-selected to lead the wedding carriage.
However, the situation with the yellow bird is probably not that simple.
After all, he wasn't the only one eyeing it; the Ghost King Sect was also watching.
The Four Spirits Blood Array is of paramount importance to their Ghost King Sect!
Li Qingan leaped into the air and disappeared from the spot, flying towards the place that seemed like a towering mountain.
Another day later.
As dawn broke, a thin, white mist drifted through the forest.
Li Qingan had passed through the thick, indistinct white fog and arrived at a wooden wall.
The rough wood grain, hard and slightly cracked, emerges from the mist, forming a wooden wall three zhang high, powerfully embedded in the soil.
Li Qing'an knew he had found the place. He carefully examined the wooden wall, or rather, the towering wooden wall.
He took a few steps, leaned closer, and gently touched it with his hand.
The moment I touched it, the sensation coming from my palm was warm, moist, and rough.
This sacred tree, a wonder of the world of Jade Dynasty, also possesses extraordinary abilities.
The trunk is hundreds of feet thick, resembling a city wall; the canopy reaches straight into the sky, its destination unknown.
The Heavenly Emperor's Treasury is located in its canopy.
Such a giant tree, capable of growing so miraculously and enormously, and even able to support the Heavenly Emperor's treasure trove, is extremely rare, even in the world of cultivation.
Therefore, Li Qing'an even suspected that this tree had the effect of gathering spiritual energy.
This is not speculation. Even standing at the roots of this towering divine tree, Li Qing'an could feel the spiritual energy that was several times denser than that outside the marshland.
The higher you go, the denser the spiritual energy becomes. Is this the effect of the earth's own spirit-gathering array? Or is it an effect of the Heavenly Tree?
This still needs further confirmation from Li Qingan.
If this can be confirmed, then the other formation that Li Qingan has been researching over the years will have been fully mastered.
That's a Spirit Gathering Array!
The Spirit Gathering Array was the first array Li Qing'an researched, and it was through this that Li Qing'an officially came into the sights of the Qingyun Sect's higher-ups.
Over the years, Li Qing'an noticed that the original spirit-gathering array's effectiveness had gradually decreased. After research, Li Qing'an realized that the simpler something is, the more difficult it is to improve upon.
The art of formations is inseparable from the technique of gathering spiritual energy.
Only by mastering the art of gathering spiritual energy can one use their own limited vital energy as a pivot to leverage the spiritual energy of the entire world, thereby supporting the power of the formation.
Therefore, Li Qingan also picked up the cultivation of the Spirit Gathering Array.
Formations are always techniques that allow you to achieve great results with minimal resources!
Chapter 194 Strange Phenomenon Appears!
"Oh, our Chief Li, what are you lamenting about now? Perhaps you still wish to communicate with this Heavenly Tree?"
A pleasant and melodious voice came from the thick fog to Li Qing'an's left.
Li Qingan withdrew his hand, completely ignoring the slightly teasing voice, and slowly looked up.
"Why are you here looking for me instead of stopping Burning Incense Valley and Heavenly Sound Temple?"
Before them stood a beautiful woman dressed entirely in pale yellow, her eyes filled with affection, a genuine smile playing on her lips, her black hair gently cascading over her shoulders, and her eyes brimming with tears, so captivating that one would be lost in them forever.
The woman possessing such alluring skills was undoubtedly Jin Ping'er of the Hehuan Sect.
After dealing with Meng Ji's matter with Gui Li and Qin Wuyan, they went their separate ways.
She arrived at Neize with a few disciples of the Hehuan Sect who were of decent strength.
Besides searching for the rare treasure, she also wanted to meet with Li Qing'an.
That heartless guy, we haven't seen each other for so long, and he doesn't even take the initiative to contact her.
If Li Qingan hadn't released Tao Hong, one of her subordinates, she wouldn't have bothered with this scoundrel.
She only came to express her gratitude.
After all, while others might not know about Tao Hong's situation, she, as the young sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, knew very well about Tao Hong's plight.
Originally, when Tao Hong was drugged by Ancestor Duanmu, her faction within the Hehuan Sect advocated seeking an explanation from the Wandu Sect.
However, the powerful dual cultivation faction within the Hehuan Sect felt that this was the perfect opportunity to form a stable alliance with the Wandu Sect through a woman, which would naturally be extremely appropriate.
But they never considered Tao Hong's opinion.
Jin Ping'er argued her case with reason, but there was nothing she could do.
As for Jin Ping'er's master, Fairy Sanmiao, she couldn't say much about such matters.
It's simply a matter of weighing options and maintaining stability.
Helpless, Tao Hong could only swallow her anger and fiercely cultivate the dual cultivation technique. Fortunately, she was originally at the peak of the Jade Purity Realm, and after cultivating with Ancestor Duanmu for several years, she broke through to the Upper Purity Realm.
This period of frustration and humiliation fueled Tao Hong's boundless and endless hatred for Ancestor Duanmu.
As the leader of the seductive arts faction of the Hehuan Sect, Jin Ping'er felt somewhat guilty towards her, even though she was a member of the Demonic Sect.
"I've come to thank you for sparing one of my elders!"
Jin Ping'er winked at Li Qing'an, using all her charms to try and bewitch him for a moment.
This is the thing she has done most often over the past ten years.
Each time, she felt that her love spells had become increasingly profound, but in front of Li Qing'an, she was always deeply defeated.
But they still enjoy it immensely!
"That's it?"
Li Qingan's words had a double meaning. He looked up at the mist above and replied casually.
"Hmph!" Jin Ping'er was somewhat disheartened. She had encountered this kind of situation many times before, but each time she managed to accumulate some new setbacks.
"Do you believe I'll stop your Qingyun Sect's team right now?!"
Jin Ping'er was somewhat exasperated.
"I don't believe you, you can't beat Xueqi!"
