Chapter 1109: Chapter 893: Qihan Mountain (Part 2)

Qu Luming slapped his thigh upon hearing this and said with sudden realization, "No wonder the news spread so rapidly! In such a chaotic place, where people of all sorts mix, news related to the Power of the Celestial Dao naturally spreads quickly."

After patiently listening to Hu Zhile’s explanation for a while, he frowned deeply, "There is a specific location, teleporting there is easy. The problem is that violence is prohibited in the mountain, how can we capture that scoundrel Ye Fan without resorting to fighting?"

"Indeed, it’s a very tricky problem." Hu Zhile shook her head helplessly and said, "Anyone who causes a fight will be forcibly restrained by the array, separated, and imprisoned as if in jail. Once the time is up, they will be thrown out of Qihan Mountain, marked as troublemakers not allowed to enter again for a year."

Yun Mo spontaneously spoke, "Find a way to lure that scoundrel out!"

"After all, he is a Great Demon Cultivator of Mahayana Realm and has held important positions in the Demon Realm Alliance, he’s not a fool, how could he be easily lured out?"

Having worked in Fengdu, He Miancun suggested, "It’s best to seek help from the Mountain Master. On the Master’s territory, capturing a Great Demon Cultivator shouldn’t be too difficult."

Qu Luming wore a bewildered expression, "I don’t even know the Mountain Master!

If Miss Hu hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t even know there was such a place. I reckon Du Li and Lan Shanying aren’t quite familiar either; otherwise, they would have thought to go to Qihan Mountain to capture Ye Fan long ago."

"I’ve learned something new, there is indeed such a place."

"The Mountain Master is indeed strange, even shelters Evil Cultivators, clearly not a good character."

"I’ve never heard of such a person, it’s quite hard to meet the Mountain Master without acquaintance..."

......

Everyone discussed widely but couldn’t come up with a good idea.

Waiting for Ye Fan to leave by himself feels too passive, and judging from the current real-time scenes, he doesn’t seem inclined to leave anytime soon.

"Why don’t I inform Du Li of Ye Fan’s whereabouts? Since he mainly prevents that rogue, knowing he is at Qihan Mountain makes defenses at Wanmang Mountain unnecessary."

Qu Luming said unsurely, "Then let the Demon Realm Alliance intervene, maybe they can capture him back, but who knows if that stubborn mule will believe it..."

Jiang Yuan silently paused before speaking, "Zhile, how does Qihan Mountain define creating trouble or fighting?"

"Well, since the rules have long existed, no Demon Cultivator dares to break them inside." She thought and answered, "The array uses Attack Power as judgment, if Cultivators were to fight, there will naturally be Spiritual Power fluctuations. Once Attack Power reaches a certain degree, the array senses it and imposes corresponding penalties.

Therefore, though no fighting occurs within Qihan Mountain, everyone is adept at verbal battles. After all, verbal attacks do not cause tangible damage, so the array cannot counter them."

Little Cloud Sparrow raised its wings, chirping eagerly, "I apply to fight! Anyway, no need to worry about getting beaten with such a low realm, watch me scold that traitor terribly to lure him out of Qihan Mountain!"

Signaling it to calm down, Jiang Yuan asked, "If the Spiritual Power fluctuation is demonstrated through a Magical Treasure, then what?"

"There are many shops within Qihan Mountain, naturally, many showcase and sell Magical Treasures, as long as they are not activated to harm others, it’s fine."

"If that’s the case..." he took out the Seven-Layered Glazed Treasure Tower, "why not directly collect Ye Fan inside, and bring him back?"

Strictly speaking, the act of collecting people with a pagoda does not count as an attack.

Comparatively, the Chaotic Heaven Bell is a bit less flexible in this aspect.

It captures more but needs on-site processing right after, currently can’t be shrunk and stored in the Storage Bag; whereas the Seven-Layered Exquisite Pagoda is more convenient, directly collect inside and then shrink to store in the Storage Bag, without any impact.

Hu Zhile didn’t expect such a loophole, startled and shook her head, "I’m not sure if it’ll work, but probably no problem."

"Why not just try it?" Ling Di strode over confidently, "I’ll make a trip, take care of pointing me with the mirror. Then if it’s easy to capture, good; if not, after a fight, I can tear space to escape. Then the Mountain Master must come out and hand over Ye Fan obediently!"

Hearing about the excitement, Yan Xuan perked up and squeezed forward excitedly, "I want to go too! Master, let me go with him! Please, Master is the best!"

Being bumped and nudged near toppled over, Jiang Yuan, amused and exasperated, "Alright, alright, then go together with Ling Di. Remember prioritizing the serious matter, once you capture Ye Fan, also check how many Evil Cultivator tracks inside; if there’re indeed many, accompany me for another visit."

Going together as a pile of bloody packets, who wouldn’t enjoy it?

Handing the pagoda to Ling Di, Jiang Yuan pointed at the picture displayed in the Treasure Mirror, "See, remember his attire. Just passed a shop called Yellow Springs Winery, once you’re in position, I’ll guide you via Communication Stone."

"Woof! Leave it to us!"

"After it’s done, don’t need to use Teleportation Talisman, I’ll summon you back."

"Understood, Master; noted, Master; see you, Master!"

Qu Luming didn’t even manage to join in, the two Great Demon Beasts disappeared through teleportation.

"Phew!"

The cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew in, making Ling Di instinctively shake its fur.

Yan Xuan found it curious, "Hey? Were you also preoccupied with cultivating human techniques, neglected Body Forging? This is merely cold wind, yet a mighty Great Demon Beast of Tribulation Crossing Realm feels cold?"

It thought to itself, devouring Ten Thousand Years Profound Ice daily, never felt shivers like that.

"It’s not really because of the cold." Old Dog shook its silk-like long fur again, laughingly, "If you had long fur too, you’d know how comfortable it feels to shake."

Birdhead followed shaking, Yan Xuan mused that with just this amount of feathers and pitifully sparse fur, it couldn’t quite comprehend why shaking feels good.

Reducing aura to Bone Refining Realm, disguised half as a little dog, the other as a big turtle, walked shoulder to shoulder into the cave.

Inside Qihan Mountain, tunnels interlaced, near a dark lake floated many small boats.

Casually jumping onto one, the boatman at the prow eerily turned his head 360°, revealing a skeletal face underneath the straw hat, raspily asked, "Where to, esteemed guests?"

"Yellow Springs Winery."

"Ah, two guests seeking intoxication." The skull’s head turned back, its withered hands paddling, chuckling, "Heard Yellow Springs Winery’s ’Drunken Long Sky’ is quite delectable, yet bound here ferrying, I have no chance to taste."

Ling Di sensed, the other’s aura is extraordinary.

Just wondered why such a bizarre appearance, curiously asked, "Who are you bound to? Why sell yourself?"

"Ferrying here, bound to whom else but the Mountain Master." The boatman grumbled, "As for why sell myself... naturally from gambling loss, the Mountain Master truly is Gambling God! Any gambler becomes Mountain Master’s believers, generation upon generation serving under it."

Yan Xuan listened bewildered;

Old Dog froze, "You’re saying the Mountain Master of Qihan Mountain is Gambling God Mist Dragon, Lord?"

The boatman turned slightly, regarding it with hollow eye sockets of deathly white, rasped chuckling, "This pup knows a bit, but dare speak Master’s name directly, don’t you value your life?"

Ling Di quickly shut up, seeing Yan Xuan’s confusion-face, secretly explained, "Legend speaks of an Underworld Ghost God, named Mist Dragon, commands gamblers.

If one has repaid sins, ready for reincarnation, Mist Dragon inscribes special mark inside the crown, upon rebirth, controlled by mark, obsessed with gambling!

This Mist Dragon called Gambling God, but only legend in Netherworld, no Ghost Cultivator seen its shadow, couldn’t be ruling in this Wilderness World?"

"Ghost God?" Yan Xuan sniffed, although chillingly cold, abundant Spiritual Energy permeates, no trace of Yin Energy, quite doubting, responded, "Whatever, concerns us not, most important capture Ye Fan for reward!"

Saying this, it licked lips, whispered, "Crave Flood Dragon Meat again, you?"

Old Dog pulled corners of its mouth, "Doing Walking Flood Dragon, Transforming Flood Dragon now, not quite fitting to eat Flood Dragon Meat."

"How doesn’t fit? Flood Dragon differs, Bai Yunqi Transforming Flood Dragon is good, a friend; those Flood Dragons captured are bad, food, completely different matters!"

"Really? Then...I want to eat too."
