Chapter 403: Refining a Country into a Magical Weapon
Li Zhi and the other two stood quietly where they were, staring intently at Yu Wenxian's departing back, until his figure gradually blurred and disappeared in the distance.
After Yu Wenxian had walked a long way away, Duan Heng came closer, lowered his voice, and said excitedly: "Since Master Cangliu is not an earthly immortal, we are not completely powerless to fight back."
There was a gleam of eagerness in his eyes, as if he saw a glimmer of hope of defeating the powerful enemy.
Li Zhi looked calm and nodded slightly.
The moment he learned that Master Cangliu was not an earthly immortal, he indeed felt a great sense of relief deep in his heart.
Earthly immortals, earthly immortals, land immortals!
This is not just talk.
If Master Cangliu really reached the realm of earthly immortals, once he decided to attack Li Zhi and the others, Li Zhi and the others would probably have difficulty even struggling.
However, compared to the excitement of Duan Heng and Nangong Wen, Li Zhi seemed more sober. He knew in his heart that this Master Cangliu was definitely not an ordinary person as he could suppress an entire country by himself.
Therefore, even though he has not yet achieved the status of an earthly immortal, his strength should be not far from that of an earthly immortal.
When dealing with such people, you must never take it lightly.
So, he said with a solemn expression, "Although this Cangliu Master is not an earthly immortal, he should not be underestimated. We must not be careless."
Duan Heng and Nangong Wen nodded quickly and responded seriously: "We know this, we will never act rashly."
Just as they were talking in low voices, a dark shadow, like a ghost, moved slowly and silently towards Li Zhi and the others, sticking to the ground.
At first, the shadow was just a vague outline, looming on the ground, like a shadow blown by the wind. As it got closer, its shape became clearer.
When the black shadow moved in front of Li Zhi, it suddenly bounced upwards like a spring.
Li Zhi reacted quickly and reached out his hand subconsciously. He felt his hand sink and caught a small thing that looked like a puppy.
He looked carefully and found that it was actually a lie.
Li Zhi couldn't help but feel surprised.
After they arrived in Yan State, Wang left quietly.
After all, Wang's original request was just to ask Li Zhi and others to take it away from the desert, so when it left, Li Zhi and others didn't pay much attention to it.
But who could have thought that this delusion would come back again.
Looking at Wang who had turned into a puppy in his arms, Li Zhi frowned slightly and asked softly, "Why are you here?"
Wang stretched his head as far as he could, rubbing against Li Zhi's clothes like a real puppy, and replied in a muffled voice: "I just walked around here..."
Li Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and listened to Wang's story patiently.
It turned out that after leaving, Wang went straight into the territory of Yan State.
With Wang's strength, if he deliberately concealed his whereabouts, ordinary people would not be able to detect his existence unless Cangliu Zhenren personally took action. With this advantage, Wang wandered around Yan State and soon explored the entire Yan State.
This investigation allowed Wang to discover a shocking secret.
Although it was not sure whether this secret would have any impact on Li Zhi and the others, after spending some time together, Wang had already regarded Li Zhi and the others as trustworthy companions and friends.
So it thought about it and finally decided to find Li Zhi and tell them the secret.
When Wang told Li Zhi everything about his discovery, Li Zhi's face instantly became solemn.
He never imagined that Master Cangliu would be so cruel and do such a heinous thing - he actually treated the entire Yan State as a magic weapon to be refined!
This also explains why he ordered the demolition of the original cities of Yan State, and then took great pains and carefully planned to rebuild three special cities.
It turns out that the materials used and the layout of these three cities are very particular, and every detail contains hidden mysteries, which is the key to refining this magic weapon.
When Master Cangliu has nurtured this magic weapon to a certain degree, he will be able to use the sacrificial technique to directly sacrifice the people of the entire Yan State.
If successful, this terrible magic weapon will be complete, and the people of Yan will become his victims.
Li Zhi's brows were tightly furrowed into the shape of the Chinese character "川". His heart, which had been slightly relaxed because Master Cangliu was not an earthly immortal, was now tense again.
"This Master Cangliu is truly crazy! We must be extremely careful when we meet such a person!" Li Zhi turned to look at Duan Heng and Nangong Wen, and instructed them in a serious manner.
Then, Li Zhi turned his gaze to Wang and asked, "Then have you found out to what extent this Cangliu Master has nurtured the Yan State?"
"It didn't do any harm..." Wang replied in a low voice.
Li Zhi and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this.
But before they could completely relax, Wang continued, "But, you can use..."
These words made Li Zhi and the others stagger and almost fall.
Duan Heng immediately lost his temper and couldn't help complaining, "Speak properly, don't talk in a split second, it's really annoying!"
As if Wang was frightened by Duan Heng's tone, he let out an aggrieved "ow" and drooped his head.
Li Zhi looked at Wang helplessly, then turned to look at them and said, "Now that things have come to this, we can no longer retreat. What exactly is this Master Cangliu planning? Is he an enemy or a friend? We can only go and confirm it ourselves!"
After saying that, Li Zhi looked at Wang again and asked, "Do you want to leave first, or come with us?"
Wang tilted his head, thought seriously, and then said firmly: "Let's go together!"
…
The dim room had cold and damp walls and was filled with a disgusting stench, like a cage without sunlight.
"Don't hit me... Don't hit me..."
Murmurs filled with endless fear rang out from this prison-like room. The voices were trembling and desperate, as if fear had tightly gripped their throats.
A small window half the width of a person allowed a little weak sunlight to penetrate with difficulty, but that light seemed to be mostly swallowed up by the darkness, leaving only a small patch of dim light.
The spot of light happened to fall on Lin Shan's face, reflecting his miserable condition at the moment.
His pupils were dilated and his eyes were empty and lifeless. His dirty face was covered with tear marks, crisscrossed with dried tear marks.
Lin Shan's lips kept trembling, and his voice was weak and intermittent: "Don't hit me... I don't dare... Don't hit me..."
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, filled with deep fear and pleading.
At this moment, a bone-chilling voice suddenly sounded, breaking the suffocating silence: "Stupid thing! You almost ruined everything!"
The sound seemed to be wrapped in the wind and snow of winter, with a bone-chilling coldness that made people shudder.
Lin Shan, who was already in a daze, trembled violently when he heard the voice, as if he was electrocuted. The fear on his face deepened instantly, as if he had seen the most terrifying demon in the world.
His body trembled uncontrollably, his teeth began to chatter, and he stammered, "I don't dare anymore... I really don't dare anymore... Don't hit me..."
Yu Wenxian's figure slowly emerged from the darkness.
