Chapter 967: Chapter 964: To Demand Chapter 967: Chapter 964: To Demand “`

“Answer my question, or I won't hesitate to throw these Gu insects on you, believe me, they are not just fearsome to look at, they also possess abilities that match their fierce appearance,” Shen Luo's eyes were cold.

As soon as the words fell, all the Gu insects swarmed out, enveloping the golden light shield layer by layer, constantly drilling towards the inside as if they couldn't wait to attack Lin Xinyue.

“No, don't, I'll talk,” Lin Xinyue's face turned deathly pale, extremely grateful for the golden light shield around her, and she hurriedly said.

Shen Luo couldn't help but sneer inwardly, even if Lin Xinyue didn't speak, considering Bai Xiaotian's face, he wouldn't have done anything to her. He was just trying to scare the woman, and now it seemed that these fierce-looking insects had a deterrent effect on women far beyond his expectations.

“Speak,” he raised his hand and beckoned, and all the Gu insects stopped their drilling, but they still didn't leave.

“I came to ask you about something, the person who fought with Yuan Zui on the island before was you, wasn't it, Brother Shen?” Lin Xinyue saw those disgusting Gu insects stop and settled down a bit before saying, then hurriedly added an explanation when she saw Shen Luo's eyes turn cold again.

Shen Luo's pupils shrank slightly, so that tall middle-aged man was really Yuan Zui, the Master of the Refining Body Altar. But back at the Boundary of the Nether River on that day, how could Yuan Zui have been so weak that he was killed by him, who only had the cultivation level of the Soul Condensation Stage?

Could it be that what he had killed that day was only something like a puppet, and Yuan Zui possessed a similar divine power?

The more Shen Luo thought about it, the more it seemed plausible. That day, the Refining Body Altar, Jing River Dragon King, and a mysterious person from the Underworld had cooperated, and it wasn't appropriate to send an ordinary disciple. Only a Doppelganger of the Refining Body Altar Master could dominate the scene.

Seeing Shen Luo's serious expression, Lin Xinyue thought he was annoyed by her counter-questioning and quickly added, “This question is very important, it is directly related to my purpose.”

“That's correct,” Shen Luo collected his thoughts, glanced at Lin Xinyue without explaining, and nodded his head.

“That's great, I came chasing after to ask Brother Shen, where did you get that blue Old mirror that reflected thunder and lightning attacks?” Lin Xinyue's face showed a trace of excitement as she immediately asked.

“What do you want with it?” Shen Luo was greatly surprised by Lin Xinyue's question but did not answer it, instead asking back.

“That mirror is the magical treasure my sister cultivated as her life's essence. She disappeared without a trace after leaving Pansi Cave years ago, and I have been searching for her. Please, Brother Shen, if you could give me some information, I would be eternally grateful,” Lin Xinyue hesitated before saying, and after speaking, she gave a deep bow to Shen Luo.

Shen Luo silently operated the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil, closely observing Lin Xinyue's eyes, and was fairly certain this girl was not lying.

“That Old mirror is currently being used by one of my spirit beasts, why she has that mirror, I do not know. I will take the opportunity to ask her later. For now, please wait here patiently,” he said after a moment of silence.

Having said that, without waiting for Lin Xinyue's response, his figure disappeared from the spot, leaving Lin Xinyue alone there, with the golden light shield still in place, continuing to imprison her within.

Lin Xinyue looked around and sat down on the ground after being silent for a moment, lost in thought.

Shen Luo changed his position and brought those Gu insects to where Yuan Qiu was.

“Using Gu insects to scare a little girl isn't very gentlemanly,” Yuan Qiu tsk-tsked.

“For someone who has joined the Refining Body Altar and once tried to frame me, I don't think I need to show any courtesy,” Shen Luo said.

Yuan Qiu chuckled, having just casually teased and not saying anything else.

“Does your Closing Eye Gu have a distance limit? Can it see the outside of the cave through the white light curtain at the edge of the Secret Realm?” Shen Luo had come to Yuan Qiu with another important matter and asked directly.

“It can, but the lifespan of the Closing Eye Gu is very short, only less than half an hour. The ones I left in that cave have already died,” Yuan Qiu was a bit confused by Shen Luo's train of thought, hesitated, and then said.

“Understood, give me some Closing Eye Gu later.” Shen Luo nodded his head and said.

“No problem,” Yuan Qiu nodded.

“`

He had used up all his Closing Eye Gus previously, but with his Life-bound Gu at hand, which contained the life essence of all Gu insects he possessed, he only needed some time to quickly breed new Gu insects.

Shen Luo took a jade slip from within his robes and handed it over.

“This is…” Yuan Qiu was momentarily startled, then seemed to think of something, and an excited expression appeared on his face.

“I have already obtained the Nine Brahmanic Lotus. You have fulfilled your promise, and this is the first part of the Medicine Immortal Collection,” Shen Luo said.

“Thank you,” Yuan Qiu said, clutching the jade slip tightly and only after a long time did he calm down and speak.

“It's what you deserve,” Shen Luo said calmly, his figure disappearing on the spot and reappearing in another part of the Heavenly Book Space.

“Master, are you unharmed?” A purple figure stood here, holding the old mirror in her hands–it was the Mirror Fiend.

Earlier, while in the pool, Shen Luo, worried about being discovered, had wanted to make use of the Mirror Fiend's powers, so he summoned her using the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits.

“It's nothing serious. How is the Liangyi Micro-dust Array coming along?” Shen Luo waved his hand and asked.

“I have only set up less than half,” the Mirror Fiend said with a touch of shame.

“Then you continue with the setup, but wait a while and I will summon you again, as I need you to do something,” Shen Luo nodded, opened the Spirit Communicating Water Hole, and sent the Mirror Fiend back without asking about her Blue Ancient Mirror.

He planned to discuss this matter with the Mirror Fiend once he was completely safe.

After doing all this, Shen Luo sat down on the ground.

Only now did he completely relax, showing signs of exhaustion on his face.

Although it seemed that he had easily escaped the island just now, it was all thanks to the Magic Extinguishing Sword and two Earth-Attracting Thunder Talismans.

Shen Luo had a sober understanding of his own strength. The Magic Extinguishing Sword and Earth-Attracting Thunder Talismans were external aids; on his own, he was merely a junior cultivator at the Late Nascent Soul Stage, and without external help, he might not even be able to defeat an early-stage Great Mahayana cultivator.

Fortunately, Daughter Village, Pansi Cave, and the Refining Body Altar were in the midst of a great battle, and it would likely be some time before anyone would come after him.

The reason he had taken the risk of releasing the people from Daughter Village just now was not only to repay the kindness of the Nine Brahmanic Lotus but also to use Daughter Village to hold back the forces of the Refining Body Altar and Pansi Cave.

Shen Luo closed his eyes and rested for a moment, and the fatigue of his spirit eased considerably. He then took out two damaged talismans, which were Earth-Attracting Thunder Talismans.

The power of these Earth-Attracting Thunder Talismans was surprisingly tremendous; it was not in vain that he had painstakingly gathered materials. Once he advanced to the Mahayana stage, he planned to buy another batch of materials and refine several more Earth-Attracting Thunder Talismans.

Having put away the destroyed talismans, he hurriedly began to recover mana by refining and absorbing the elixirs.

Half an hour later, Shen Luo's mana had recovered by nearly half. Bai Xiaotian had also arrived at the Poisonous Fog Area, but with no way to neutralize the intense poison, he had to notify Shen Luo.

Shen Luo went outside, brought Bai Xiaotian into the Heavenly Book Space, and after sensing the markers he had left before, he took out the Ten Thousand Poisons Pearl to protect his body and flew toward that location.

Before long, he returned to the place where he had first entered the secret realm.

The underground marker was intact, and there were no signs that others had tread upon the surrounding ground, suggesting that the monks from the Golden Yang Sect and others had not yet figured out a way to enter.

Shen Luo smiled slightly, not immediately using the Magic Extinguishing Sword to break the prohibition, but instead sat down cross-legged on the spot, took out an elixir and swallowed it, then closed his eyes to continue recovering his mana.
