Chapter 36 The Conditions for Survival
now.
Not far away.
"Finally, we've waited until his spiritual power is exhausted."
"By the way, Brother Zhong, I'll be counting on you later. Also, be careful when you make your move, and don't damage that mountain of gold."
"After all, a living cultivator of all arts can bring countless benefits in an endless stream."
Huang Che and his wife greeted their friend Zhong Yan, who had come to help.
Furthermore, the couple never intended to kill Ye Xuan'an.
Instead, they wanted to capture it alive, place special restrictions inside its body, control its life and death, and make it help with the refining process.
After all, they know his abilities perfectly well.
With their help, it is entirely possible to revive Xiuche's weapon-refining shop's business, or even elevate it to an extremely high level.
However, capturing them alive is quite difficult, especially since they are not good at trapping the enemy.
If Ye Xuan'an refuses to be captured alive, things will get complicated.
That's why they specifically invited their friend Zhong Yan.
Not only is his cultivation level good, but his skills are also special.
He even possessed a top-tier, first-order bewitching spell.
Even a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator can easily fall into the illusion if they're not careful.
That's why Huang Che and his wife asked him for help.
After all, with his methods, he could easily capture Ye Xuan'an alive.
It could even mislead Ye Xuan'an into escaping his predicament within the illusion, and then gradually get him to help with the weapon forging.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. But after it's all done, don't forget that I'll get a share of that gold mine too."
Zhong Yan gave a sinister smile.
"That's only natural. After all, even if we capture him alive, we'll still need your help to control the weapon forging using mind control techniques."
Mr. and Mrs. Huang said with a smile.
Afterwards, they and Zhong Yan made their way towards Ye Xuan'an's secluded cultivation location.
During this time, Zhong Yan continuously used hand seals to cast his bewitching spells.
Furthermore, that method is extremely complex and consumes a great deal of resources.
As a result, Zhong Yan's spiritual power was immediately drained, and his face even turned extremely pale.
After a few breaths, he finally finished performing the technique.
"The art of inverting and bewitching."
"Freeze!"
Immediately afterwards, a subtle magic seal appeared and quickly flew into Ye Xuan'an's body.
"Well done."
"The Aoki Bronze Bell!"
"cover!"
Huang Che and his wife were overjoyed. They quickly raised their hands and waved, immediately taking out a top-quality, first-tier, low-grade trapping bronze bell magic artifact and conjuring two thick trapping light screens to cover Ye Xuan'an.
"Instead of killing, they trap you? What a cunning scheme."
Ye Xuan'an sensed something was wrong and guessed what Huang Che and his wife were thinking.
But at that very moment, the bewitching technique entered his mind, making him feel somewhat drowsy.
"not good."
Ye Xuan'an's expression changed drastically, and he quickly took out three extremely special first-grade mid-level calming talismans.
He bought this after encountering the Broken Mountain Gang cultivator who was skilled in concealing his aura at the mine, in order to deal with various situations.
In addition to these talismans, Ye Xuan'an also purchased some other strange and unusual talismans at the time, in case of any accidents.
And now it can be said that it is making the best use of its resources.
In addition, they have a calming and soothing effect, making them a good way to counter bewitching spells.
In addition, the talismans were of good quality and there were many of them.
With these factors combined, Ye Xuan'an's mind immediately cleared.
The only drawback is that they are too rare and too expensive, costing dozens of spirit stones for a single piece, and at least one or two hundred spirit stones for a whole set.
Moreover, Ye Xuan'an only had three of them.
"But those talismans were worth it; without their help, we would have been in real trouble this time."
"But why is that mind-controlling technique so powerful? Logically speaking, a calming talisman should be able to counteract its effects."
"But I only managed to barely hold off him after using three whole cards?"
Ye Xuan'an was extremely wary and immediately took out the three top-grade first-level low-grade Fiery Flying Swords and the Fiery Array that he had recently forged.
"Formation!"
"rise!"
The Fiery Array flashed with spiritual light, spewing out countless extremely hot flames that slammed into the two green wood and bronze bell-shaped light barriers that trapped the enemy.
The surrounding temperature also rose accordingly.
The three fiery flying swords followed closely behind.
Boom boom boom!!!
A series of booming sounds immediately rang out.
Although the two bronze bells made of green wood were extremely sturdy and their quality was no less than that of the three blazing flying swords and the great formation.
However, their numbers cannot compare to those of magical items such as the Fiery Flying Sword.
Therefore, the Fiery Flying Sword and the formation caused it to shake continuously.
"How could they possibly possess something as rare as a calming talisman?"
"And there are so many top-tier, low-grade first-order magic artifacts?"
Upon seeing this, Zhong Yan was momentarily speechless.
After all, even though his cultivation had reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining, he didn't yet possess a top-tier, low-grade first-order magic weapon.
In addition, since calming talismans are rare and have almost no use in daily life.
Therefore, 99% of cultivators would not buy such things, nor would they have such things.
"The plan has changed, Brother Zhong. Quickly take the pill to restore your spiritual power, and then look for another opportunity to strike."
Upon seeing this, Huang Che and his wife immediately felt a headache coming on.
Fearing that Ye Xuan'an might break through and escape, they quickly summoned several magical artifacts.
Moreover, since they were all veteran weapon refiners, those were rare, top-tier, low-grade first-order magic weapons.
Upon closer examination, their magical artifact resources were no less than Ye Xuan'an's, making them exceptionally powerful.
Furthermore, since they were all at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, they directly suppressed Ye Xuan'an and beat him.
However, none of them actually killed him.
Clearly, none of them had given up on capturing Ye Xuan'an alive.
As for Zhong Yan, he kept taking pills to restore his spiritual power and once again used that inverted bewitching technique.
"I refuse to believe that kid can dodge this time."
Zhong Yan spat and said viciously.
"Kuiyi, Kuifang, Kuiyi, Little Dark Golden Rat."
"come out!"
"Kill that damned dog that keeps casting spells first, or it'll be a huge problem."
While Ye Xuan'an was resisting the magical artifacts of Huang Che and his wife, he subtly sensed Zhong Yan's methods and immediately frowned, then hurriedly called out.
Boom!!!
The next moment, Kui Yi, Kui Fang, Kui Yi, and the little dark golden rat silently emerged from the ground and pounced on Zhong Yan.
In addition, they all had mid-grade first-level concealment talismans on their bodies, which made their aura extremely inconspicuous, and no one had noticed their presence before.
"Holy crap, how come there are so many cultivators and a spirit beast hidden underground?"
Zhong Yan felt a chill run down his spine and immediately stopped casting the spell, instead summoning a defensive artifact to defend himself.
"Dare to touch your master? You're asking for death!"
Filled with rage, Kui Yi and the others blasted the defensive artifact away and, in the process, turned Zhong Yan into a bloody pulp.
Immediately afterwards, Kuiyi, Kuifang, and the little dark golden rat charged towards Huang Che and his wife.
Kui Yi, on the other hand, was in the distance, constantly drawing his bow and shooting arrows.
shhhhhh! ! !
"Damn it, have we fallen for their trap?"
"That kid is really cunning."
Huang Che and his wife had a bad feeling and cursed inwardly.
But it was too late.
In addition, although they are strong, Ye Xuan'an and others are also quite strong.
As a result, over time, they gradually became unable to withstand the encirclement and suppression by Ye Xuan'an and his group.
"Fellow Daoists, it's all a misunderstanding."
"If you all stop, my husband and I are willing to offer all our wealth."
"By the way, we also have some treasures hidden in some secluded places. These places are extremely well-known and only we know about them. We are willing to offer them up afterward."
The Huang couple were terrified and begged for mercy repeatedly.
They didn't want to die so easily.
They are veteran first-tier low-grade weapon refiners.
Moreover, their aptitude for weapon crafting is extremely good. As long as their aptitude is sufficient, they will definitely be able to enter the first-tier mid-grade weapon crafting path in this lifetime.
And by then, their income will be astonishing, tantamount to having a bright future.
"Afraid of death? This is going to be fun."
Upon seeing this, Ye Xuan'an was secretly delighted and a peculiar idea came to mind.
Then he sneered.
"You think you can make us stop just by offering up spiritual items? That's wishful thinking."
"Moreover, you know in your hearts why you intend to attack me. Perhaps you even want to capture me alive to be a slave and help you forge weapons."
"However... it's not impossible for me to spare you, but you have to agree to one condition."
Ye Xuan'an sneered.
