Five Immortals Gate

Fannan had a playful look in his heart. In the recent missions, Li Yan could only hand in so many "Higanbana".

"There are only two people left. You are finally starting to consume your lifespan. Let's see how long you can hold on. What a bullshit friendship. I want to see if you personally ended the other person's life!"

Li Yan's body has begun to lose weight, and his overall condition has also declined, but the other party has not killed Bro.

In Fannan's opinion, the other party should have seen through his thoughts, so he is still insisting. He guessed that Bro might be dead, and he would let him go out alone to perform the mission.

So in addition to the possibility that the other party has some friendship with Bro, the rest is that he doesn't want to be too lonely.

After all, every time he comes back, he can't practice here, so all the cultivators in the dark prison can only continue to endure the time.

To put it bluntly, he is waiting to die. In the empty cell, it would be best if there is someone who can talk to him.

Just like Monk Fake, he would often talk to his confidants to distract from the confinement and depression here.

After Li Yan returned to the cell, he once again walked into the shadows behind.

"Li... Brother Li, let me pick the 'Bianhua' next time!"

Bro's voice came from the other side. He looked at Li Yan, who was beginning to become thinner, and the hope that had risen in his heart was extinguished again.

It seems that even for someone like Li Yan, who has fallen into the underworld, there is no way to do anything, but Bro feels that he has no regrets.

He saw the pain of the two people being retaliated, and waited for their death. Now that this is the result, he will enter the reincarnation first.

Instead of the other party consuming his lifespan to protect himself, it is better to let himself die quickly. After Li Yan is the only one left in the cell, he may be transferred to other cells.

In that case, with Li Yan's strength, he can live longer, and maybe he can find a way to survive later, such as joining the ghost cultivation sect of Huangquan City...

Bro also saw Fanan's intention, which was to completely weaken Li Yan's lifespan to a certain extent.

"It's good to stay and talk with me occasionally. Even if there are other people here, what can we talk to them about?"

Li Yan's voice came out from the darkness, still as calm as before.

Bro could only sigh in his heart when he heard it. He knew Li Yan very well, and it was useless to repeat what the other party decided.

And if he went to pick "Higanbana" now, with his physical condition, he couldn't even find "Higanbana" of the right age.

He could only let Li Yan lead him to search there, but every time Li Yan went in, he put him at the edge of the twisted zone and then left alone.

Only after returning to the cell would he occasionally talk about some things in the fairy world.

It seemed that only in this way could the two see a ray of hope in this endless torture.

In the darkness, Li Yan looked at Bro curled up on the ground again and stopped talking. He retracted his gaze. Bro wanted to die earlier...

In his heart, he was still thinking about cultivation. Now Li Yan was indeed using his lifespan to exchange for time, so that Fa Nan could see his changes.

But if this continued, Li Yan would certainly become weaker and weaker, which would make it less and less likely for him to successfully cultivate "Breaking Prison".

Therefore, every time he picked "Higanbana", he also tried to adjust it in secret, such as occasionally two of the three would consume lifespan.

But in the next mission, only one would consume lifespan, so his body would also change, but the speed of weakening would be reduced.

"Now there is some feeling of the breakthrough of "Breaking Prison", but I don't know when it will take to break through to the entry level..."

Li Yan had no idea at all, but he couldn't let himself be anxious, otherwise it would cause problems in his state of mind.

The most important thing is that he has no spiritual consciousness, and he can't observe the changes in his body at all, and there is no clear measurement at all.

However, Li Yan is already a cultivator of the void. As long as there is an improvement in one aspect, his understanding of the law is naturally not comparable to that of the Nascent Soul and the Transformation Mirror.

Under such heavy pressure, Li Yan is practicing this technique with all his heart and soul. He has sensed that the speed of practicing "Breaking Prison" has been significantly improved, but he can't make a specific judgment.

"Now that there is a reaction, then... we can fight!"

Li Yan's eyes suddenly narrowed, as if he had made some kind of decision.

He practiced intermittently like this, which was a waste of time. His body might not be able to wait until the day of successful practice!

What worried him most was the Hades Emperor, although the other party only came when he was initially unconscious, and never appeared again.

But this does not guarantee that the other party will not suddenly appear, and then check his body. Of course, Li Yan's understanding of the situation here is relatively deep now.

There has never been a case of the Dark Emperor personally taking action to investigate the physical condition of a cultivator. At least these cultivators have never experienced this. They have not even seen Ye Luo.

Investigation has always been done by Fa Nan, and he will only investigate a few of the strongest cultivators. However, this does not mean that such a thing will not happen suddenly...

Ten days later, Fanan looked at Li Yan who was taken away. He thought that the other party had given up after seeing through his mind.

But the other party finally couldn't help it. Today, he once again asked for a transfer, and the price Li Yan paid was higher than the last time.

Li Yan promised that he could bring back three 700-year-old "Higanbana" within a month, and Fanan still only gave him 20 days.

But Li Yan kept talking about how difficult it was to pick the "Higanbana" now, and finally got 22 days.

"Next time I want to transfer people, I will make you pay a greater price. It seems that you have stock in hand..."

Fanan could guess Li Yan's thoughts, and felt that Li Yan might have found a group of "Higanbana" in the twisted zone.

Li Yan must have a lot of life left, but every time he went out to pick, he had to endure the pain of continuous life being stripped.

In that case, he himself couldn't stand it mentally, and he would rather suffer more pain and danger in this mission.

Even if the monks he transferred to later were still about to die, Li Yan could still use that little benefit to reasonably adjust his painful time, right?

Thinking of the conditions proposed by the other party, Fanan sneered in his heart. Li Yan had found a "Bianhua" with a long life span, but he was reluctant to take it out.

However, he did not exploit the other party. As long as the monks here did not dare to commit suicide, they would take out the stock sooner or later. Why should he force these people?

And with the precedent that Li Yan completed the task within 20 days last time, Fanan was a little relieved and gave Li Yan two more days.

He was a good prisoner who was easy to talk to, and his reputation had always been good. Fanan thought to himself...

Li Yan appeared on a "ghost thorn" mountain. This time, Bro asked Li Yan to bring him with him. In the end, Li Yan did not speak, but did not put him back in the same place.

But in the end, Bro was placed in a place on the "ghost thorn" mountain, which was still a long way from where Li Yan was.

"This method cannot be used too often. This is the second time. But if I use it again, even if that Fa Nan does not have doubts, I cannot do it.

If I can take out such a long-term 'Bianhua' again and again, this loophole will become bigger and bigger, and it will soon be impossible to make up for it..."

Li Yan warned himself that although he was gambling again this time, it was different from the last time. Last time, he was gambling with his own body. Can he recast it in such a short time?

This time, he is not only gambling with this time, but also gambling with the opportunity to concentrate on practicing for dozens of days. He must grasp it firmly. This may be his last chance.

If nothing unexpected happens later, if I put forward conditions similar to today again, I will at least wait for a wave of exploration from the other party...

Li Yan quickly gave up this idea and immediately devoted himself to practice. This time, he did not even consider it again. He had to go over and complete the picking task first...

"Did the two die in there? Why haven't they come out yet?"

Two evil spirits with pale green faces were suspended outside the twisted zone. This is where Li Yan and Bro were met.

After they arrived here on time, they did not see Li Yan and the other two who had been waiting here as before.

This phenomenon rarely occurs in cultivators, which undoubtedly means one end, and those cultivators will be punished most severely.

Especially Li Yan, who has never been late for all his previous missions.

"Then wait a little longer!"

Another evil ghost's eyes flashed with a green light, and his tone sounded calm.

But when they saw Li Yan and the other two later, they would definitely not be polite and would definitely make the other party regret why they could not die immediately.

Otherwise, if such a thing happens for the first time, there will be a second time, no matter how well you have done in the previous months and years, it will not have any effect.

A quarter of an hour later...

The two evil ghosts suspended in the air were increasingly cold, and they looked at each other, and one of them said.

"Wait a quarter of an hour!"

The two ghosts knew in their hearts that they did not want to enter the twisted zone, so they decided to wait a little longer. If they still did not come out by then, they would have to enter the search.

Bro was lying on the "Ghost Thorn" mountain, in a concave place. The spikes under him had been smoothed by Li Yan, so there was no need to worry about getting hurt.

But it was only a small area, so Bro couldn't walk far even after getting up.

"It's been 22 days, why didn't Brother Li show up?"

Bro had been calculating the time. Of course, he had doubts about the mission that would take more than 20 days.

But after the last time, he just regarded this somewhat unrealistic idea as a conjecture.

This time Li Yan didn't show up in advance, so Bro was already worried now.

This time, Li Yan might really go to explore the "Underworld River". At this time, they were not out of the twisted zone. Li Yan also knew what this meant?

As a smart person, he would not do such a serious thing even if the mission was not completed.

And there may be only one reason for the current situation, that is, Li Yan encountered a big trouble.

The biggest possibility is that he is trapped in the "Underworld River" and can't get out. Bro's heart keeps sinking.

"He has been keeping me alive, but he still hasn't given up the intention to leave. I still have to fight..."

At this time, Li Yan was on a "ghost thorn". His body was tilted sideways like a bow, and he could still let his limbs touch the "ground" at the same time.

There was a sound like thunder drums in his body, and it was like a huge wave rising high, constantly hitting the embankment, one wave higher than the other!

At this moment, if Li Yan was naked, people would find that there was a phantom emerging in his chest and abdomen.

The phantom looked like a monster, but the body was not complete. It was centered on Li Yan's chest and abdomen, and the monster's body stretched out.

The limbs were in the shape of dotted lines, overlapping with Li Yan's limbs, and the body covered Li Yan's chest and torso, like a painting of ink and color, attached to Li Yan's chest and torso.

But this monster has no head, because the shadow spread to Li Yan's neck and could no longer spread.

Although this monster is not complete, if Gong Chenying sees it, she can recognize it in an instant even if she only sees a very small part.

Then it is the sacred beast totem of the Tianli tribe, the peerless beast Qiongqi!

At this time, not only did Li Yan's body emit thunder sounds, but his bones also made a tooth-grinding "crackling" pressing sound.

This sound has been continuing, giving people the feeling that in the next moment, all the bones in Li Yan's body will break and turn into countless pieces.

The places where Li Yan's skin is exposed are torn under this heavy pressure, even with Li Yan's body that can shake mountains and shatter peaks.

Along with the "crackling" sound of bone squeezing, the skin that was originally intact continued to make a sound like silk tearing.

"Sizzle, sizzle..."

The sound continued, and then there was a flash of silver light. It was Li Yan's skin, which was being torn into wounds like a baby's mouth by some powerful force.

There was bright red flesh and blood, as well as veins like green earthworms, but before the blood could flow out, it was blocked by the sudden silver light.

The powerful self-healing ability of the "Immortal Phoenix" broke out, constantly trying to repair Li Yan's body.

But this was just self-healing. The pain of the skin being torn inch by inch by itself would not be reduced at all.

Li Yan's eyes turned a strange blood red, and sweat continued to seep out.

"Come out!"

Li Yan's mouth was also mixed with blood. He roared in his heart. The whole body of Qiongqi had emerged, but the head could not come out.

This is the most basic level of the "Breaking Prison" technique. It is necessary to cultivate a complete Qiongqi phantom on the body of the cultivator.

This is not like the phantom of Qiongqi that appeared above or behind the head when the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" was used before. That was the performance when the technique was running to the extreme.

But now it has to be truly formed on the skin from the inside out, and it will appear on the surface of the skin every time the technique is used in the future.

This is very similar to the "Heavenly Demon White Jade Plate" practiced by Zhao Min.

Just as Li Yan roared, "Pah!" With a crisp sound, the blue veins on Li Yan's forehead bulged high, and under the huge pressure, they instantly broke through the skin and burst out of the body.

"Pah pah pah..."

Under Li Yan's forced exercise, Qiongqi's head did not appear, but Li Yan's forehead, cheeks, temples, and hairline, blue veins broke through the skin and came out of the body!

In just this moment, Li Yan's entire head was shrouded in a silver light, and in that silver light, there was a pair of strange red eyes.

This made Li Yan look weird and scary at this time...

The two evil ghosts were flying and searching all the way. In the twisted zone, their consciousness was suppressed severely, and there was also the smell of the "Underworld River" water that they hated.

This kind of discomfort was constantly disturbing the two ghosts' minds, so they had been searching here for half an hour, but still could not find Li Yan and Bro.
