Chapter 756: Trade

"As long as the immortal artifact is successfully refined, an ordinary Golden Immortal can activate a third-grade immortal artifact. However, to unleash the true power of the immortal artifact, the immortal spiritual power of a Golden Immortal is simply a drop in the bucket. Therefore, you all need to combine your immortal spiritual power into one to barely achieve it," Tian Hu Daozu said slowly, glancing at Han Li.

Han Li listened, not rushing to speak, appearing very hesitant.

"Brother Li, why are you still so hesitant at this moment? We caused the Jiuyou Clan so much trouble to get here. Even if we succeed in washing away the evil aura, we will already be at our wits' end. If we can rescue the Old Ancestor, our chances of escape will also greatly increase..." Seeing this, Hu San quickly advised.

"You have come all this way for the Evil-Cleansing Pool? Indeed, you clearly possess the bodies of immortals, yet you suffer greatly from the erosion of evil aura, taking such great risks to come to this Asura City. Naturally, you have come to rely on the Evil-Cleansing Pool to wash away the evil aura and restore your flawless bodies. However, before you came, did you know the dangers of this Evil-Cleansing Pool?" Liu Qi Old Ancestor prostrated himself and said slowly.

"Senior, are you saying..." Shi Chuan Kong said hesitantly.

"You have all seen the power of the Qing Lei chains earlier, haven't you? That was only a tiny bit of residual power drawn out by the runes of the Lei Ao chains. The true power of the Thunder Pool is a hundred times more violent. If you recklessly enter with your cultivation levels… forgive me for speaking frankly, but don't even think about washing away the evil aura. Even your physical bodies will be directly destroyed by the power of lightning, leaving not even a speck of dust behind," Liu Qi Old Ancestor continued.

Han Li heard this and looked up at the Thunder Pool, his heart stirred.

He knew that what the other party said was true, and he became even more wary of this old fox.

He probably deliberately did not stop Hu San earlier, allowing him to try to cut the chains, precisely to let them witness the power of the lightning, so as to add weight to the following negotiations.

"Hearing what Senior says, does it mean that we risked our lives to come here, only to end up with nothing?" Han Li pretended to be surprised and asked.

"Little friend, don't panic. I have been neighbors with these four Thunder Pools for quite some time, so I can somewhat understand their secrets. If I can help bear some of the thunderous power of the Evil-Cleansing Pool, you will be able to successfully complete the evil-cleansing in this azure Thunder Pool. However, if I help you wash away the evil aura, you must also help me cut the chains. What do you say to this deal?" Liu Qi Old Ancestor's eyes rolled slightly as he said this.

"If that's the case, then naturally it would be best. After we get rid of the evil aura, and then activate this Heavenly Fox Blood Saber, we can unleash its power to the greatest extent. This way, the chances of rescuing Senior will also be higher," Han Li said with a smile upon hearing this.

Shi Chuan Kong's eyes lit up slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Little friend Li, there's no need to be so cautious. I was originally planning to have you wash away the evil aura before helping me cut the chains anyway. Although this Evil-Cleansing Pool is extremely dangerous, once you pass through the evil-cleansing, what you wash away is not only the evil aura in your bodies, but also the impurities, tempering your physiques and improving your cultivation levels to varying degrees," Liu Qi Old Ancestor said with a chuckle.

"If that's the case, then there's no time to delay. Let's enter the Evil-Cleansing Pool now," Hu San said, having already changed into a new set of black clothes, disregarding the injuries on his body.

"There's no rush. Everyone should take some elixirs and adjust their breathing for an hour before entering the Evil-Cleansing Pool," Han Li shook his head and said.

Hu San hesitated slightly upon hearing this, but still nodded in agreement.

Thus, the three of them sat cross-legged on the side, each taking out elixirs and adjusting their breathing.

Ti Hun was special to begin with, not fearing evil aura at all. Naturally, he did not need to go to the Evil-Cleansing Pool to wash away the evil aura. He was just silently recuperating from his injuries, while pondering how to apologize to his master, Yin Chengquan, when he saw him again one day.

Soon, an hour passed.

Hu San was the first to open his eyes and stand up from the spot. Shi Chuan Kong and Han Li stood up at the same time without him urging them.

Liu Qi Old Ancestor squatted on the cross-shaped wooden frame, squinting at the three of them and said, "Among these four Thunder Pools, the azure Thunder Pool has the weakest power, but it's enough to cleanse the evil aura on your bodies. There's no need to risk your lives to try the other pools."

Han Li and the others nodded at him with solemn expressions.

Ti Hun, who was not far away, looked towards Han Li with a hint of worry in his eyes.

The three of them came to the edge of the azure Thunder Pool. To avoid affecting each other, they dispersed and went to a corner of the Thunder Pool respectively. After standing still, they all looked at the leaping azure liquid in the pool, none of them immediately stepping into it.

After waiting for a moment, Han Li took a deep breath, intending to be the first to enter the Thunder Pool.

His footsteps had just lifted when his brows suddenly furrowed, and he retracted his left foot, waving his hand and opening the entrance to the Flower Branch Cave Mansion, revealing the interior of the first floor of the bamboo building.

"Fellow Daoist Li, can you let me out?" The Hot Flame Immortal, who was jointly restrained by Shi Chuan Kong and Hu San, had suddenly awakened for some reason and shouted to Han Li.

"Fellow Daoist Hot Flame, have you regained your senses?" Han Li asked, raising his eyebrows.

"Within your small cave mansion, I am able to isolate the erosion of evil aura and replenish myself with abundant heaven and earth spiritual energy. Only then can I regain my senses, but it is only temporary. Therefore, I am taking advantage of this awakening to quickly contact you. There are some things I need to entrust to you," Hot Flame Immortal said, breathing somewhat rapidly.

"What is it?" Han Li asked, puzzled.

A trace of pain flashed across Hot Flame Immortal's face. It seemed that evil aura suddenly surged through the space between his eyebrows. He switched to transmitting his voice:

"I have been eroded by evil aura for too long. I no longer hope to recover, but I don't want to become a walking corpse devoid of senses. I hope that Fellow Daoist Li can personally send me on my way, allowing me to enter reincarnation sooner..."

Han Li wanted to interrupt upon hearing this, but he heard him continue to transmit his voice:

"All the treasures on my body have been seized by the Jiuyou Clan. Only my natal magic treasure is still hidden within my body. Fellow Daoist Li can take it later. Before that, I also want to pass on the cultivation method passed down by my sect to Fellow Daoist Li. Our True Word Sect has already been destroyed. I hope you can help us preserve this spark..."

"Fellow Daoist Hot Flame, we have already arrived at the Evil-Cleansing Pool. By cleansing the evil aura through the Thunder Pool, we can remove the evil aura from your body, but the process is extremely risky. Would you dare to try?" Han Li asked with a smile, not transmitting his voice.

"Evil-Cleansing Pool? Can it really remove evil aura?" Hot Flame Immortal asked eagerly, his neck stiffening.

"Would I lie to you? Being able to cleanse the evil aura is true, and the extreme risk is also true. It can even be said to be nine deaths and one life," Han Li said.

"Try, of course I will try!" Hot Flame Immortal said excitedly, his eyes slightly red.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, Fellow Daoist Hu San..." Han Li looked at the two of them and called out.

The two of them understood and quickly released the restraints on Hot Flame Immortal.

"Ti Hun, can you still help him remove the other restrictions placed by the Jiuyou Clan in his body?" After he walked out of the cave mansion with faltering steps, Han Li looked at Ti Hun and asked again.

"I can help him remove the restrictions, but I am afraid that the evil aura in his body will erupt, causing him to lose his mind again..." Ti Hun nodded, somewhat hesitant.

"Please take action, miss. Once my evil aura erupts, please Fellow Daoist Li directly throw me into the Evil-Cleansing Pool. After that, my life or death will depend on fate, and I will bear the responsibility myself," Hot Flame Immortal said with a bitter smile.

"Since you have made up your mind, then I won't try to persuade you any further," Han Li glanced at him and nodded.

"Thank you," Hot Flame Immortal cupped his hands slightly to Han Li and Ti Hun.

Han Li listened and silently nodded to Ti Hun.

The latter saw this, and a dark red light lit up in her palms, and she began to pat Hot Flame Immortal's body.

At first, Hot Flame Immortal could maintain his normal expression, but as Ti Hun's movements fell again and again, his face quickly became twisted and ferocious, his brows furrowed into a knot, his face full of pain.

Along with this, there were strands of black evil aura constantly emerging from his body.

Han Li's eyes narrowed slightly, noticing Hot Flame Immortal's almost gray-white eyes. His heart tightened, realizing that he had underestimated the extent of Hot Flame Immortal's erosion by evil aura.

With a slight turn of his wrist, a Isolation Chain had spiraled down along his arm, hanging in his sleeve.

Just then, Ti Hun finally pressed her palms together, a strange rune appearing in her palms, and patted towards Hot Flame Immortal's back.

With a muffled "bang".

Hot Flame Immortal let out a muffled groan, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, his bones crackled like bursting beans, and his body seemed to have grown half a foot taller. His body was filled with dark light, and he was full of evil aura, looking almost no different from a gray immortal.

Han Li's heart tightened. Just as he was about to take action, he heard a hoarse voice that did not sound like a human voice coming from Hot Flame Immortal's mouth: "Fellow Daoist Li... don't panic, I... I can still hold on..."

After saying that, he took step by step forward, slowly walking to a corner of the azure Thunder Pool. Without the slightest hesitation, he leaped into the air and fell into the Thunder Pool. It was too late when Han Li wanted to stop him.

"Zzzzz..."

As his body entered the pool, it was as if a drop of water had been splashed into a hot oil pan. The already violent lightning suddenly boiled violently. Thick lightning bolts, like ten thousand lightning dragons, surged wildly towards Hot Flame Immortal.

"Tsk tsk, this guy is also impatient..." Liu Qi Old Ancestor narrowed his slender eyes slightly, seeing this, with a hint of worry in his eyes, but he was somewhat disdainful in his heart.

However, he did not stand idly by. A giant tail wrapped around the azure chain again, and a piece of black light lit up on it. With a sudden contraction, it immediately pulled the chain towards him.

The depths of the Thunder Pool shook violently, and the azure light became more and more intense. Countless azure lightning seemed to have suddenly found a more interesting target, and they all clung to the azure chain, surging wildly towards Liu Qi Old Ancestor along the chain runes.

Liu Qi Old Ancestor suddenly turned around, his giant mouth opened wide, spitting out a dark green ball the size of a human head, from which a piece of crystal green light radiated, blocking the violent azure lightning like a water curtain.

"Rumble"

A burst of violent roaring sounds continued to come, countless azure lightning bolts, like fish leaping over the dragon gate, blasted a group of huge bulges on the crystal green water curtain condensed by the dark green ball, but they were never able to break through.

A large amount of lightning was attracted by Liu Qi Old Ancestor, but the power of the lightning in the Evil-Cleansing Pool was still strong and unmatched.
