The people on Misty Mountain bid farewell and left. Not long after, Zhu Baihe came to the living room. He lived with Xi Qianye in Huang Yue Park, but when Xi Qianye was in seclusion, he did not disturb him.
"Brother Nie, you finally came out of seclusion. If you did not come out, I was afraid you would miss the Dragon Fruit Festival."
Zhu Baihe stepped into the living room as soon as the person on Misty Mountain left. The two of them came one after the other.
Obviously, he also knew that the person on Misty Mountain had come to the Huang Yue Park.
"Brother Zhu, why are you looking for me?"
Xi Qianye said lightly.
He could naturally see that Zhu Baihe, who was always by his side, was not as simple as he seemed.
"Not long after you went into seclusion, a mysterious person sent you an encrypted letter and asked you to open it personally. I saw that you were in seclusion, so I did not disturb you and kept it for you."
As he spoke, Zhu Baihe took a step forward and placed a special energy crystal into Xi Qianye's hand.
The correspondence in the Southern Barbarian Continent was naturally not all paper correspondence. Some special letters were sealed in some special gems, and after going through layers of encryption, the confidentiality was quite high.
Encrypted letter?
Xi Qianye had a strange look in his eyes. Who would send him an encrypted letter?
He glanced at Zhu Baihe and found that the special gems were not tampered with. He released a trace of Divine Thought into the special gems.
Encrypted letters could only be read once. Once the reading was done, the letter would self-destruct. Depending on the Divine Thought, sometimes only one person could read it. The confidentiality was quite high.
Soon, Xi Qianye's Divine Thought entered the encrypted gem and an image appeared in front of him.
In a dark palace, a black-robed man was sitting cross-legged. The black-robed man's face was blurry, and his appearance could not be seen clearly. His blood-red hair dragged on the ground, and there was a hint of demonic coldness.
"I heard that you need the Mysterious Heaven Li Fire Pearl. Coincidentally, I have it. If you want it, come to the Harp Hun Mountain.
Remember, I do not want anyone else to follow me. I only want you.
I presume you're already aware of my identity. If I discover a second person appearing, I'll immediately flee, and you'll never be able to obtain the Profound Heaven Li Flame Bead.
“
The black-robed man in the image said something and then disappeared.
A round bead emitting golden light appeared where the black-robed man had just been sitting cross-legged. The golden bead seemed to contain a sea of fire, emitting a soul-stirring fire essence.
"Celestial Fire Bead!"
Xi Qianye's pupils shrank. He naturally recognized the bead in the image. Among the five elements spiritual materials he needed, the Profound Sky Li Fire Bead had the best effect.
This was because the Profound Heaven Li Flame Bead was a Connate Spiritual Material that was extremely rare in the Cultivation World. It was simply impossible for low-level cultivators to obtain it.
After all, innate materials were comparable to immortal materials, and Dacheng stage cultivators would regard them as treasures.
He'd never expected that such an item would appear in the Southern Barbaric Continent.
"Interesting."
Xi Qianye narrowed his eyes slightly. The appearance of the encrypted letter was somewhat unexpected.
How did the black-robed man from the White Bone Sect know that he needed the Profound Heaven Li Fire Pearl?
Although the black-robed man didn't report his identity, he could tell from his clothes that he was a cultivator from the White Bone Sect.
As one of the three ancient sects of the Dark World, the White Bone Sect was naturally terrifying. Its foundation was deeper than some second-rate sects in the Holy City of Secrets.
The Dark World Alliance formed by the three ancient sects was the sixth transcendental force in the Holy City of Secrets.
The reason why it was said to be the Dark World was that ever since the Tianlan End Day, the Dark World had completely betrayed the Southern Barbaric Continent and joined the Abyss Demon Clan, becoming their lackeys.
This was also why it was rare to see cultivators from the Dark World in the Holy City of Secrets. Once they appeared, they were basically chased down by everyone.
"Brother Nie, who gave you the encrypted letter?" Zhu Baihe asked curiously.
Naturally, he hadn't read the contents of the letter. Otherwise, Nie Renxiong wouldn't have been able to see through it.
"It's just a private matter. I need to go out for a few days. I may not be able to make it back in time before the Dragon Fruit Festival. Brother Zhu, please help yourself."
After finishing his words, Xi Qianye turned into a ball of light and disappeared from the living room.
There might not be many Profound Heaven Li Fire Beads in the entire Taihuang World. Since it had appeared, he had to find a way to get it.
Zhu Baihe looked at Xi Qianye's back and pondered.
…
Konghun Mountain was not very far from Giant Heaven Mountain.
However, unlike Giant Heaven Mountain, which was famous and was a cultivation holy land in the hearts of many cultivators, Konghun Mountain was a dangerous place. Since ancient times, few people dared to step into it.
It was said that there was an ancient battlefield in the depths of Konghun Mountain. Even Emperors would be in danger of dying if they went in.
Three days later, a ball of blue light streaked across the sky and appeared in the area of Konghun Mountain.
There was a young man in white in the blue light. He emitted a smoke-like aura. The water essence of the entire world was constantly gathering toward him.
"The spatial structure of Konghun Mountain is indeed strange."
Xi Qianye stood on a short mountain and looked into the depths of Konghun Mountain.
In terms of size, Konghun Mountain was far inferior to Giant Heaven Mountain. It could even be said to be an ordinary mountain.
However, as an ancient dangerous place, it was naturally not as simple as it looked. Once one stepped into it, it would be a different world.
As the saying goes, a mustard seed hides Mount Sumeru. Even a speck of dust could hide an infinitely vast world.
Xi Qianye did not hesitate and stepped into the range of Konghun Mountain. The surrounding space was rapidly changing, and the colors of the world were also changing.
In the end, he appeared in a dilapidated ancient mountain with no clouds, no sun, and no stars. It was a boundless dark red.
There were still four days before the appointed time of the mysterious Church of White Bone. Xi Qianye was not in a hurry. He found a relatively hidden cliff and sat down cross-legged.
Konghun Mountain was strange and unpredictable. There were a large number of Bloodsucking Scourges, and danger lurked everywhere. Xi Qianye was not willing to wander around.
The first day was very peaceful. Nothing happened.
On the second day, a Great Sage level Bloodsucking Scourge accidentally found Xi Qianye. However, it was killed by Xi Qianye.
The third day was still peaceful. When it was close to noon, a strange and awe-inspiring voice suddenly sounded.
"You are indeed very trustworthy. You actually dared to come alone."
A figure slowly walked out of the special blood fog of Konghun Mountain. In a few steps, he appeared in front of Xi Qianye.
The person who came was dressed in a black robe. A blood-red skull was embroidered on his shoulder. He emitted traces of a strange and fierce dark aura.
It was the mysterious black-robed person in the encrypted letter.
"Have you brought the Mysterious Heaven Li Fire Pearl? If not, you will die very miserably," Xi Qianye said indifferently.
