"But she didn’t do that. She stayed in Great Li to wait for , instead letting Great Li’s main forces co over to hold back the Demon Race, preventing them from opening the Demon Emperor’s Tomb while she was capturing ..."
Li An ruminated, feeling the pressure in his heart suddenly intensify. This indicated that, in Shangguan Shengxian’s eyes, Li An was indeed very important.
Would she even postpone searching for the Demon Emperor’s Tomb for Li An?
"The Demon Emperor’s Tomb can be found sooner or later, but the ti to capture you is running out. If you enter the Nascent Soul Realm and manifest a perfect Nascent Soul, by then, body and soul will have rged into one. If she captures you again, the natural advantages of the Demon Body will be greatly reduced..."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao sighed softly.
This revelation made Li An’s eyes instantly light up!
So that’s how it is!
Doesn’t this an that as long as he manifests a perfect Nascent Soul, maybe Shangguan Shengxian will lose interest in him...
Freedom!
He saw the hope of freedom.
"By the way, there’s another question. How did you imdiately see that the key point was in Yellow Springs Valley? Yet Shangguan Shengxian did not know?"
Li An asked.
"My sister is arrogant and self-assured, looking down on the various paths of immortal cultivation. She genuinely only cultivates herself, so she doesn’t understand arrays."
"She never expected that the entrance to the Demon Emperor’s Tomb, found within a dinsion space, was originally established on an array—"
Li An understood.
"You also need to find so stronger Soul Replenishnt items, preferably Fifth Grade Spirit dicine, or else I truly cannot help you."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao continued, "Whether facing my sister, the Demon Race, or even all the top experts of the Emperor Origin Realm combined, you can’t defeat them... I might draw upon a bit of the Demon Emperor array’s power, perhaps manage to hold on until reinforcents arrive from the Spirit Realm."
Her words were heavy.
Li An, however, felt overwheld: "A Fifth Grade Spirit dicine, that’s a resource for the Divinity Transformation Stage. Where am I going to find one for you?"
Right now, Li An finds it difficult to even acquire a Fourth Grade Spirit dicine. Fifth Grade? That’s a wild fantasy!
Whenever such an item appears, it causes a stir in heaven and earth. All sides rush to vie for it, Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation cultivators alike flock to it. For a re Golden Core cultivator like Li An, seeking it is risking his life...
"If you don’t have it, the Demon Queen does. Go ask for it, you must acquire it."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao puckered her lips, "How you do it, figure it out yourself."
And then she said nothing more.
Li An found himself grumbling inwardly, his head aching. Shangguan Xiaoxiao simply made demands, while it was all up to him to carry them out...
However, the matter had already co to this critical point.
Even though he didn’t want to see Tan Qingxue, given the current urgent circumstances, he had to cooperate!
He imdiately contacted Shee Anqi.
On this journey, Shee Anqi had used a Jade Talisman to try contacting him several tis, but he, out of caution, had not responded.
After all, given that Great Li Empire was determined to have him, who knew whether Shee Anqi could be completely trusted?
If things weren’t safe on her end, a slight misstep could result in disaster.
Li An imdiately sent her a ssage, arranging to et the next day at a place called "Greed Wolf Valley."
...
The next day, Li An did not go to et Shee Anqi. Instead, he hid not far from Greed Wolf Valley.
After letting her wait for two days in vain, Li An sent another ssage, claiming to have found signs of the Demon Emperor’s Tomb in a place called "Green Waves Pool" and urged Shee Anqi to hurry over.
When Shee Anqi erged from Greed Wolf Valley, Li An finally appeared!
"Shee Daoist friend, please wait."
Li An smiled slightly.
Shee Anqi looked at Li An in astonishnt, "Weren’t you supposed to be at Green Waves Pool?"
"Please move to discuss—"
Li An imdiately took her away to a third location, Dinglong Mountain.
Nearby was the Demon Race’s army encampnt.
The purpose of Li An’s elaborate deception was primarily to guard against Shangguan Shengxian.
If by any chance Shee Anqi was in league with Shangguan Shengxian, the latter would surely lie in wait with Shee Anqi.
His pretense of being at Green Waves Pool was rely a test.
"Lin Daoist, you are most cautious."
Shee Anqi couldn’t help feeling a bit resentful, as Li An’s distrust of her was evident.
"In such extraordinary tis, extraordinary asures are necessary."
Li An apologized, saying, "Daoist Shee, I wish to et His Majesty. Could you possibly make the introduction?"
Shee Anqi replied, "His Majesty has already arrived at the camp yesterday and has been waiting for you—co with ."
She led Li An into the Demon Race’s army.
To avoid attracting attention, Li An disguised himself as a demon soldier, mingling among her entourage. He passed through the heavily guarded Demon Race encampnt and saw a grand tent in the center.
Guarding this tent were nurous top-level Nascent Soul experts, with layers of powerful formations surrounding it.
Upon entering the tent, Shee Anqi stepped back voluntarily.
Then Li An saw Tan Qingxue—
After so many years apart, her appearance remained unchanged, only exuding an aura of grandeur and composure befitting a superior. Looking at Li An, she hesitated slightly and asked, "How should I address you?"
Li An respectfully paid his respects, "Lin An pays tribute to Your Majesty!"
Neither servile nor overbearing, quite respectful.
A peculiar emotion flickered in Tan Qingxue’s eyes, and she said, "The fa of Mountain Master Lin truly precedes you."
"To destroy the Immortal Talent Hall this ti, Mountain Master Lin deserves the first rit."
Li An replied, "It’s all due to Your Majesty’s wisdom. How dare Lin An claim credit?"
"Lin An cos here with so top-secret information to report."
Tan Qingxue said, "Speak."
"If I’m not mistaken, behind the Great Li Empire, there’s an extrely formidable presence. This person likely cos from the Demon Sect of the Spirit Realm—"
Li An decided to be candid.
Tan Qingxue’s expression shifted slightly. She had indeed suspected a connection to the Spirit Realm...
"This person I already know. She’s very strong. The Black Tortoise Demon King died by her hand, and the Demon Emperor’s War Sword was already effortlessly destroyed by her."
