In the same time, in a certain cave mansion hall.

A gaunt old man in an ochre robe was sitting on the main seat, gently skimming tea leaves with a teacup in his hand. In front of him, a middle-aged man with small eyes stood with his hands down, his face respectful.

"Judging by the time, Lu Ya should have finished things over there." The gaunt old man said slowly, without even raising his head.

"With Elder Lu taking action, everything will be foolproof. Only the Old Ancestor can persuade Elder Lu to act." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Alas, the younger generation in the clan are all useless. Only Hao'er is most to my liking, but unfortunately... Hmph, that kid named Han, even ten thousand deaths are not enough to relieve the hatred in my heart." The gaunt old man slammed the teacup down, and shouted angrily.

"Old Ancestor, please calm down. No matter what, that Yu Meng Han is also a pleasant surprise. The Old Ancestor's divine skill is expected to be completed." Seeing that the old man's face was not good, the middle-aged man hurriedly said.

"Hmm. Speaking of which, her death is also inseparable from Hao'er's death. Considering her spiritual body, I will spare her life for now." The gaunt old man said, his anger slightly relieved.

As soon as he finished speaking, his expression changed, and he turned his head to look at the cave mansion gate.

As a result, after a while, a young maid appeared at the gate, bowed and said:

"Reporting to Elder Qi, Elder Mo is here to see you!"

Before the gaunt old man could speak, a man's voice, neither yin nor yang, came from outside the cave:

"Elder Qi Xuan is in a good mood. At this moment, he can still calmly taste tea in the mansion."

Then a middle-aged man in a black robe and a high crown appeared outside the gate, his face full of indifference.

The gaunt old man Qi Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, signaled the maid to step back with his eyes, and asked without getting up, "Mo Chen, I have always kept the well water from your Law Enforcement Hall from the river. What are you doing here?"

"Not long ago, Elder Lu Ya's soul tablet suddenly shattered. I wonder if Elder Qi has anything to say?" Mo Chen did not answer the old man's question, but asked back impolitely.

"What did you say?" Qi Xuan jumped up from the main seat, and shouted with an iron-blue face.

"According to those who traveled with Elder Lu, he was entrusted by you to intercept a group of people, which is why he died unexpectedly. May I ask Elder Qi, who exactly did you ask him to intercept?" Mo Chen asked coldly.

"This is absolutely impossible! Two Nascent Soul cultivators, how could they be a match for Lu Ya!" Qi Xuan's face was full of disbelief.

"Hehe, to kill a Soul Transformation Stage cultivator and prevent even his Nascent Soul from escaping, what kind of strength would it take? Could it be that Elder Qi doesn't know in his heart? I only hope that Elder Qi will not bring troublesome enemies to this sect because of his personal grievances. In any case, I would like to ask Elder Qi to come to the Law Enforcement Hall with Mo for a while." After a cold smile, Mo Chen's voice suddenly turned cold.

...

A few days later, the flying boat where Han Li and others were finally flew out of the Yellow Ripple Ancient Desert.

Along the way, except for encountering several waves of Yin Nether Flying Ants attacks, which were easily resolved by Han Li with the help of the Demon Light, there were no more pursuers from the Heavenly Ghost Sect.

And with the previous precedent of killing a Soul Transformation cultivator, Gu Yunyue was used to Han Li being able to repel the Yin Nether Flying Ants.

The continuous running around and turmoil had made Yu Meng Han and Liu Le'er a little tired. The two leaned against each other on the side of the spiritual boat, and fell into a deep sleep.

Han Li sat cross-legged at the stern of the spiritual boat alone, his brows furrowed slightly, his expression a little strange. In front of him, seven or eight cyan jade bottles and white porcelain bottles were placed crookedly, all of them empty.

"How is it, Fellow Daoist Han?" Mo Guang's voice sounded in Han Li's mind.

"Although most of these elixirs came from that Soul Transformation Stage cultivator, there are also some higher-grade elixirs, but none of them are useful." Han Li sighed softly.

In the previous battle, although he relied on the powerful power of his flesh, borrowed the power of the Five Mountains, and crushed the opponent with the force of ten thousand jun, he did not consume much mana, but the mana in his body decreased rather than increased, which was not a long-term solution.

"What about the top-grade spirit stones?"

"It's the same, completely unable to absorb." Han Li smiled wryly, released his palm, revealing a spirit stone that had become gray and dull.

"It seems that only certain special elixirs can be effective." Mo Guang said woodenly.

"Perhaps. Before, only the Wangxi Pill and the unknown golden elixir of Qi Minghao had an effect. In short, when we arrive at the Cold Flame Sect, we will ask for another Wangxi Pill to study, and maybe we will know." Han Li touched the small bottle inside his chest, and said indifferently.

...

Half a month later, above a lush mountain range with overlapping peaks, a peculiar spiritual boat in the shape of a crescent moon slowly drove.

On the spiritual boat stood one man and three women, namely Han Li, Gu Yunyue and the others.

"Fellow Daoist Han, Meng Han, Le'er, this Spirit Flame Mountain Range is the mountain gate of our Cold Flame Sect." Gu Yunyue said with a smile, her eyes scanning the mountains and forests below.

"The spiritual veins are stable, and the spiritual energy is rich. It is indeed a rare blessed land." Han Li nodded with flowing eyes.

Yu Meng Han was first happy in her heart, but after looking around, she looked at Gu Yunyue with a bit of doubt on her face.

The little fox girl held the edge of the spirit boat with both hands, leaned out and looked around, but she could only see lush mountains and ancient trees, and could not see any sect buildings. She couldn't help asking:

"Brother, I also think the spiritual energy here is very strong, but there is no sect at all?"

"All the major sects have guardian formations to cover them. We are now outside the formation, like standing outside a high wall. Naturally, we can't see the scenery inside the wall." Han Li smiled.

Liu Le'er and Yu Meng Han nodded as if they understood.

"Fellow Daoist Han, wait a moment, let me inform you." Gu Yunyue said to Han Li.

With that said, she flipped her wrist, and a palm-sized golden token engraved with a flame pattern appeared in her palm.

As a light rose on the token, the flame pattern suddenly shook, as if it were really burning.

A ray of light flew out from the token and rushed towards the mountains below.

After a while, a ripple suddenly appeared in the void below the spirit boat, and a faint golden light curtain in the shape of a circular arc emerged.

Looking up, the Spirit Flame Mountain Range, which stretches for hundreds of miles, is almost entirely covered by this light curtain.

"As expected of one of the great sects in the world, its momentum is indeed extraordinary." Han Li said, seemingly admiring.

At this moment, Liu Le'er and Yu Meng Han were holding the edge of the spirit boat, their faces full of disbelief, and their four beautiful eyes turned around and kept scanning below.

Under the pale golden light curtain, palaces and buildings, and pavilions and terraces were hidden everywhere in the mountains and forests.

Some of them are suspended on the cliffs of high mountains, some are connected together, forming a cluster of gardens, some are built in valleys and ravines, and some are located on the mountainside, forming a unique courtyard.

In the central position of the entire mountain range, there are more than a dozen peaks that are much higher than the surrounding peaks, with white mist swirling around and purple air rising, and rainbow light jumping between the peaks, which looks like a fairyland.

"It's so beautiful..." Yu Meng Han couldn't help but exclaimed.

Liu Le'er also nodded repeatedly, agreeing deeply.

"Fellow Daoist Han, Elder Luo is already waiting for us at Chuyun Peak. Let's go over there." Returning to the sect, Gu Yunyue was obviously in a good mood, with an obvious smile on her face.

Han Li nodded.

Just as the spirit boat passed through the light curtain, he felt a spiritual sense probe, which should be this Elder Luo.

After the few people officially entered the Cold Flame Sect, Liu Le'er curiously looked up, and found that the light curtain had disappeared just now. All she could see in her eyes were the blue sky and white clouds.

The spirit boat flew towards the middle of the mountain range, and finally landed on one of the towering green peaks.

At the foot of the mountain peak, there was a wide white stone square, where a big man was standing, looking towards the direction of the spirit boat.

This person has a rough face, wearing an ochre yellow robe, with a black belt around his waist, and the contours of his chest muscles are obviously stretched. Judging from the aura emanating from his body, he is actually a Soul Transformation Stage cultivator.
