At the same time.
Sun Ke and Bai Suyuan's group of six had already arrived at the depths of Pine Green Ridge.
Their route was the safest among the three, and most of the demon beasts they encountered were not strong. In addition, they had a tacit understanding with each other, so their journey became smoother and smoother.
"Senior Brother Sun, according to the map, we will arrive at the activity area of the snow dove beasts in about 500 kilometers." Bai Suyuan was flying side by side with Sun Ke. She glanced at the vast snowfield in front of them and said.
"Although this beast's temperament is not fierce, its strength cannot be underestimated. It is said that it has attacked cultivators before, so we must be careful." Sun Ke nodded and said.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Bai Suyuan suddenly stopped and looked at a pine forest hundreds of meters away with vigilance.
Almost at the same time, Sun Ke also stopped and waved his hand to stop the four people behind him.
The four people spread out without saying anything and had already taken out their magic treasures.
"Cough … cough, you little kids do have some ability."
Accompanied by a somewhat hoarse cough, a tall and ordinary-looking old man in a white robe slowly flew out from the pine forest.
Although Bai Suyuan was shocked, she asked respectfully, "May I ask who you are and why you are hiding in the dark?"
She couldn't see through the old man's cultivation and aura. If it wasn't for the strange treasure he was carrying, she wouldn't have been able to discover his whereabouts. Since the old man was so sneaky, it was obvious that he didn't come with good intentions.
Sun Ke and the others had the same idea. They looked at each other and seemed to be thinking of a way to deal with this.
"It doesn't matter who I am. The key is that you are Bai Suyuan. Tsk tsk, what a beautiful flower, what a beautiful Moonlight Physique.
Alright, enough with the nonsense. Come with me. "The skinny old man's gaze fell on Bai Suyuan as he spoke in an indifferent tone.
"My sect's elder is nearby. Don't be presumptuous!" Bai Suyuan's expression didn't change, but her heart tightened.
"Hehe, little girl, don't bluff.
The hidden guards arranged by your Fire Dragon Path have long been lured away by me. They can't even protect themselves now.
Are you going to come with me, or do you want me to take you away by force? "The old man sneered.
Sun Ke and the others were shocked when they heard this.
Although they didn't have any powerful backers in the sect, since they were able to obtain the qualifications to participate in this trial, they had their own forces and information channels. Naturally, before they set off, they had learned about the Dark Guards in the trial from various channels.
This was like a reassuring pill that allowed them to train with peace of mind. Now that they knew that the Dark Guards seemed to be trapped by the other party, they naturally felt a trace of panic in their hearts.
"Senior, I'm a complete stranger to you; why are you forcing me to come with you?" Bai Suyan's expression eased slightly as she asked this question.
"Hehe, haven't you always wanted to know the Ancestor Bai's whereabouts?
As long as you come with me, I'll tell you where he is. "The old man didn't answer Bai Suyuan's question. Instead, he smiled.
"You know my ancestor?" Bai Suyuan hurriedly asked when she heard that.
Of course I know Elder Bai Fengyi. "The old man said casually.
A hint of hesitation appeared on Bai Suyuan's face. Even though she was usually clever, she was a little confused at this moment.
"Junior Bai, don't listen to him. It's just a trick to trick you into giving up. Don't take it seriously." Sun Ke quickly reminded her.
"That's right!
If you know my Old Ancestor, then take out the keepsake! "Bai Suyuan said.
"Refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Since you don't know what's good for you, this old man's patience ends here!
After all, talking too much will spoil things. "The old man's expression turned cold.
After saying this, he suddenly raised his palm and pushed forward with his five fingers spread open. A golden pellet immediately flew out. In the blink of an eye, it flew over a hundred feet in front of Bai Suyuan.
In the next moment, the golden light on the pellet suddenly shone brightly. It turned into a golden net and covered her head.
Bai Suyuan was shocked. She immediately tapped the ground with the tip of her foot and her figure flew back quickly.
However, the difference in strength between them was too big. Even if she reacted immediately, she still couldn't escape.
As for Sun Ke and the others, they didn't have the time to do anything. They could only watch Bai Suyuan being caught by the golden net.
But at this moment, a green light flashed in the air without warning. Then, a figure appeared in front of Bai Suyuan instantly. He waved his hand forward without saying anything.
"Hula."
A ball of black liquid immediately surged out and smashed onto the golden net.
The golden net, which had been moving forward swiftly and violently, seemed to be weighed down by the black liquid. It sank abruptly and fell to the ground.
"How is this possible?" The old man's face suddenly darkened.
"Elder … Li …"
Bai Suyuan, who finally stood firm, saw the back of the person in front of her. She shouted with surprise and joy.
At this moment, the figure between her and the old man was Han Li.
"Sir, you really talk too much.
And I was clearly on the side. Why did you say I left? If these juniors complain to the sect, my merit points will be deducted. "
Han Li didn't look back at Bai Suyuan. Instead, he stared at the old man in front of him coldly and said slowly.
"No wonder although the aura of the previous figure is the same as yours, I always feel something is wrong … But you are just at the early stage of the True Immortal Realm. How dare you stop me?" The old man's pupils shrank, and he sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised one hand. Seven bright flying swords appeared out of thin air. After a little hover, they combined into a set of sword array and flew toward Han Li.
The runes on the surface of the flying swords shone brightly, emitting clusters of white flames. From a distance, the seven flying swords looked like a huge fire kite with wings spread.
Seeing this, Han Li raised his hands, and a black heavy water surged out. It turned into a black dragon of ten meters long in the air and rushed toward the white fire kite.
"Boom, boom, boom …"
A series of explosions rang out in the air. Countless white flames shot out and splashed onto the surrounding snow. Immediately, there was a hissing sound and white steam billowed out.
The snow on a dozen pine trees melted quickly, but the tree trunks were ignited by the blazing flames, rising into the sky.
"Junior Sister Bai, may I know who this elder is?"
Sun Ke looked at the figure in front of him with a strange look in his eyes. He came to Bai Suyuan and asked.
"He is the inner elder of our sect, Li Feiyu."
Bai Suyuan's attention was focused on the two people fighting, so she didn't notice the strange look on Sun Ke's face.
When Sun Ke heard this, he was naturally surprised.
This Elder Li and the person he met on the Sea Crossing Thunder Boat had the same surname. Most importantly, he felt some similar aura from the two of them.
Their auras were similar, but their aura and cultivation were worlds apart. Are they really the same person?
Right at this moment, the thin old man let out an explosive shout!
The white Fire Kite formed by the flying sword spread its wings, and the fire suddenly became stronger, directly pushing back Han Li's black dragon.
When Han Li saw this, he made a gesture with his hand and chanted in a low voice.
A black disk, about a foot in size, covered with many complex and fine spirit patterns and hollow patterns, suddenly appeared behind him, emitting a strong aura of water. It was the Heavy Water True Wheel.
"Go!"
There was a low shout.
A "buzzing" sound, like the shaking of a dipper, suddenly sounded.
The Heavy Water True Wheel suddenly became a blur. It spun rapidly and shot towards the white Fire Kite.
When it approached the Fire Kite, the water pattern on the Heavy Water True Wheel suddenly shone with blue light, emitting bursts of the aura of the law of water.
When the thin old man saw this, his expression changed slightly. He shook his wrist, and a golden talisman immediately flew out. The moment before the Heavy Water True Wheel and the white Fire Kite collided, the talisman flashed and rushed into the Fire Kite.
There was a "boom" sound.
The white Fire Kite, under the activation of the golden talisman, suddenly rolled up and turned into a blazing white light ball, colliding heavily with the Heavy Water True Wheel.
"Boom!"
A majestic airwave swept out from the center of the collision, and a half hot and half cool hurricane blew in all directions. Wherever it passed, the ice and snow were rolled up and the trees were destroyed.
Sun Ke and others saw that the situation was not good, and they had already rushed to the back, hiding hundreds of feet away.
In the mountain forest, there was a loud "zheng zheng" sound.
The Heavy Water True Wheel was like a black sun, rotating wildly, constantly colliding fiercely with the white sun formed by the flying sword. For a time, there was a stalemate.
When Han Li saw this, he waved his palm, and the Heavy Water Dragon that had been repelled just now wriggled up again and rushed towards the white light ball.
There was a muffled "bang".
The black dragon that rushed into the white light was directly cut into pieces by the sharp sword light released from the seven flying swords.
A large piece of black exploded and splashed in all directions.
At this moment, the water dao pattern on the Heavy Water True Wheel suddenly shone brightly, producing a strange attractive force.
The black water that splashed around was attracted by it and all went into the true wheel.
Han Li's heart stirred slightly. He felt as if the True Wheel of Heavy Water had become even heavier, and the force of impact it exerted as it revolved also increased. The white ball of light was slowly pushed back by the force of impact.
Because the ball of light had obstructed the old man's line of sight, he didn't notice anything amiss. He thought that Han Li had increased the intensity of his magic power and hurriedly took a deep breath to control the white ball of light with all his might, slowly reversing the situation.
Han Li waved a hand through the air again, and a streak of black light flashed through the air, following which an even larger heavy water wyrm emerged.
This time, it didn't go toward the white light, but it went straight to the Heavy Water True Wheel.
There was a soft "poof" sound.
The Heavy Water Dragon was like a clay ox entering the sea, and it went straight into the true wheel.
The Heavy Water True Wheel shone brightly, and its size directly expanded by an inch. It actually became heavier.
The old man's heart shuddered. He only felt a majestic water vapor rolling over, but it was like a mountain pressing down. It was so heavy that he almost couldn't breathe.
