Chapter 1426 The Right Time and Place Are All in My Hands
"Oh?"
Jiang Han's gaze swept over everyone, taking in their expressions, and he nodded slightly:
"Since you have invited me, I will take a look."
He strode forward, completely ignoring the greed and excitement hidden in the eyes of others, and calmly walked past them, stopping not far from the lake shore.
"I'm sure you've already noticed, fellow Daoist, that this mist is extremely mysterious. Not only can it devour divine consciousness, but it is also incredibly powerful. Touching it will result in instant death, and its danger level is no less than those few immortal-falling forbidden lands in the Spirit Realm."
Yue Zimu followed and stopped beside him, saying:
“Previously, a fellow Daoist was too impatient and stepped onto the stone path without testing it first.”
"Speaking of which, that fellow Daoist made thorough preparations before setting off. He not only used high-level secret techniques to defend himself, but also had a top-grade true spirit treasure to protect him. His defense was so strong that it was even enough to withstand a blow from a demon king."
Even so, the moment that fellow Daoist touched the mist, he vanished like snowflakes thrown into a furnace; all his treasures melted away, not even his storage magic items remained.
As he spoke, as if to prove his point, he flipped his hand and took out a small rabbit-shaped animal, throwing it onto the stone path.
The little beast, bound by spiritual power, fluttered onto the green mist. Just as predicted, it couldn't even let out a scream before it melted away and was swallowed by the smoke.
Yue Zimu brushed the back of his hand, glanced sideways at Jiang Han, and said with a smile:
"That's how it is. Although we are quite strong, we are suffering from the lack of a magical treasure to protect us. We have tried all sorts of methods but to no avail. We can only stay here and sigh in vain."
"However, it wasn't a complete waste of time. Fellow Daoist possesses a celestial treasure, and your defensive methods far surpass ours. Although your cultivation level is slightly weaker, as long as you are careful, you should not be afraid of this strange green mist."
Therefore, we urge you, fellow Daoist, to summon your celestial treasure and investigate this eerie blue mist on our behalf.
At this point, he subtly stepped back, his smile deepening, but his expression grew increasingly indifferent.
"Of course, this green mist is indeed strange and dangerous; a slight mistake could lead to death and annihilation."
"If you, fellow Daoist, do not wish to take unnecessary risks, we fully understand. However, we would be grateful if you would hand over that celestial treasure so that we may use it to investigate on your behalf. Is that acceptable?"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than ten spiritual pressures erupted from the surrounding area, stirring up a howling wind.
In an instant, the surrounding crowd unleashed their magical treasures and surrounded him, their auras surging like pillars. Standing not far away, they sneered indifferently at Jiang Han, their greed no longer concealed.
"Oh?" Jiang Han chuckled, casually sweeping his gaze over the crowd. "Judging from your words, fellow Daoist, you're planning to kill and rob us of our treasures?"
Yue Zimu stood in front of the crowd, his eyes seeming to be looking at prey that had fallen into a trap. Upon hearing this, he could only shake his head helplessly.
"Fellow Daoist, why speak so harshly? It was not easy for us to find this place. If you want to share the spoils without giving anything in return, we will certainly not agree."
"This matter is quite simple. Fellow Daoist, you can either use your magic to break through the green mist, or lend us your immortal treasure for a while. It shouldn't be difficult to choose between the two, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, someone behind shouted loudly:
"Why bother talking to him about this, elder brother? All thirteen of us are at the late Nascent Soul stage. Even if this person is hiding his strength, killing him will only take a few steps. Why waste your breath on him!"
This person had a very loud voice, which seemed rough, but it carried a seductive power that subtly intimidated the mind and sought to arouse fear.
"Stop talking nonsense! Fellow Daoist is a master with a destiny to immortality, and even the three city lords treat him with great courtesy. How can he be treated like an ordinary person?!"
Yue Zimu feigned anger and gave a low shout, then smiled at Jiang Han and said, "My brothers here are a bit impatient, please forgive them, fellow Daoist."
"However, what Fifth Brother said is not without reason. Now that you have seen the treasures here, even if you have the intention to leave, we will not let you leave so easily."
"If you insist on not choosing, then don't blame us for using our power to bully you and choosing for you."
Upon hearing this, the others immediately snorted in perfect unison, their auras erupting once more, like a colossal wave crashing down on Jiang Han.
call--
The giant wave crashed towards Jiang Han with tremendous force, but it dissipated the moment it approached him, turning into a gentle breeze and disappearing in an instant.
He simply stood there, watching the group of bandits who wanted to kill and rob him with a half-smile: "If you want to rob treasure, then rob treasure. Why all the nonsense?"
He was still having a headache because these talented cultivators were all very afraid of their lives. Even though he hadn't done anything in the city, they would turn around and run away as soon as they saw him.
They didn't even dare to utter a harsh word, let alone go up and cause trouble.
If everyone does this, what will happen if no one bothers him? He'll need to find more Soul-Gathering Crystals to extract the essence of those demon kings.
Little did they know that trouble would come knocking on their door after they encountered only the second group of people.
Great, now I can bring back more specialties from the spirit world.
"Fellow Daoist, you..."
Yue Zimu chuckled in surprise: "Fellow Daoist is quite frank. In that case, please make your choice quickly, so as not to hurt you."
The reason he said those things just now was simply to use the green mist to weaken the opponent's resources. If it worked, great; if not, it wouldn't matter.
To his surprise, this junior in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm was so arrogant. After being threatened, he not only did not try to escape, but also dared to confront him.
It looked as if they were about to take action.
Ha, what a naive kid. Back in the outside world, he wasn't sure he could keep the other person there, but in this Immortal Palace, the roles of offense and defense have changed, and his chances of success have skyrocketed to over 80%!
Although the Celestial Palace of the Sky is a rare and precious celestial treasure, in the end, it is nothing more than a flying celestial treasure used for traveling, and its offensive and defensive capabilities are not particularly strong.
Although its escape speed is unparalleled in the world, there is an anti-flight formation within this celestial palace that prevents the celestial treasure from flying, and its speed will be reduced by at least 70% or even more.
The Celestial Palace of Heaven could not be used, while he was in his prime and had many helpers. It was easy to tell who was stronger.
Now, he has all the advantages of timing and location; it's as if even God is on his side!
As he pondered, Yue Zimu unleashed his full power, sending forth a crimson fire dragon that rose from the ground, its aura far surpassing that of the others.
Upon closer inspection, the fire dragon was incredibly agile, almost like a physical entity, causing the laws of fire to surge wildly and radiating out rings of crimson fire.
Waves of heat swept in all directions, turning the surrounding air into an unbearable heat. Even a sea of magma and fire appeared from the void, instantly transforming the courtyard into a fiery inferno.
"The realm of laws?"
Jiang Han raised an eyebrow slightly, without any unnecessary words, raised his hand to draw his sword, and broke through the sea of flames in one step, instantly appearing in front of Yue Zimu.
A sharp sword light erupted in an instant, black and white swirling on the blade, and slashed fiercely at the opponent's neck.
Click!
The protective barrier shattered on the spot. Yue Zimu didn't even have a chance to react. He just stared wide-eyed in horror. Before his primordial spirit could even leave his body, he felt a chill on his neck. His primordial spirit was instantly wrapped and sealed by countless sword intents.
His head flew into the air, and a violent, surging black sword intent erupted, instantly tearing his body to shreds!
boom!
A thousand-foot sword light swept out, blood rained down, and sword intent swept across the area. The surrounding cultivators were slashed by the sword light, their magical treasures collapsed instantly, their bodies exploded, and they blasted into a cloud of blood mist that stained a large area of bricks and stones red in an instant.
