After making sure that Zhou Jingxuan's condition was still good, Hong Zhan manipulated the golden body battle puppet to clean up the battlefield, carefully searched for Xiang Bao's corpse and the corpse of the True Sea Realm monk, and briefly cleaned the body of the Primordial Realm monk, and then left with Zhou Jingxuan with the sword.
He went around a long distance, and after making sure that no one could follow him, he quietly returned to his previous residence.
In the cave under the pool, seeing that Zhou Wuyou and Xiaozhu's bodies were unimpeded, he exhaled softly.
"Fairy Zhou, let me see if there is anything that can help you heal your wounds." Hong Zhan said.
As he spoke, he quickly rummaged through the storage bags of the monks, but except for some ordinary elixirs, he only found two spirit sealing jade boxes.
"This group of people is too cold, just this little thing?" Hong Zhan frowned.
"Look at Xiang Bao's storage bag." Zhou Jingxuan said.
Hong Zhan took out the last storage bag and opened it, only to see that the bag was full of spirit stones, more than ten spirit sealing jade boxes, and more than ten corpses of True Sea Realm monster beasts.
"It's not bad, next, don't worry about your injury." Hong Zhan smiled and handed out the storage bag.
He didn't count the credit on his head, if Zhou Jingxuan hadn't lent him the golden puppet, and with Zhou Jingxuan's ability to use the golden puppet, he should have achieved the same results.
Zhou Jingxuan shook her head and said: "One person and half a person."
Hong Zhan wanted to say something, but seeing Zhou Jingxuan's resolute demeanor, he also nodded: "Okay!"
Seeing Hong Zhan readily agree, Zhou Jingxuan also showed a gentle smile.
The two opened the sealing spirit jade box and began to swallow and heal their wounds and break through their cultivation.
Two hours later, with a bang, a cold wind swung out of Hong Zhan's body, and he rushed open a yin vein.
He opened his eyes and saw the wind blowing, and a large amount of snowflakes fell on Zhou Jingxuan, he was worried that he would freeze to Zhou Jingxuan, so he quickly moved to the edge of the cave and sat down, and then continued to break through with confidence.
Zhou Jingxuan seemed to be aware, opened her eyes, and saw Hong Zhan sitting so far away, and instantly understood the whole story, the corners of her mouth curled up a little curved, but she didn't say anything, and continued to close her eyes and meditate.
A few days later, Hong Zhan ate three spirit fruits and finally opened up nine yin veins.
"Shall we have something to eat?" Zhou Jingxuan said.
Hong Zhan looked over, but saw that Zhou Jingxuan had cooked a pig demon and used a variety of cooking methods, filling the table, which was richer than the first time he ate it.
"Have you recovered from your injuries?" Hong Zhan's eyes lit up and he stepped forward.
"Well, this time it's just some trauma, unlike the five demons that hurt my roots, I recovered faster." Zhou Jingxuan smiled and handed over the chopsticks.
"Fairy Zhou, you are really good at craftsmanship, if anyone marries you, it must be smoke from the ancestral grave." Hong Zhan took a bite and praised habitually.
Zhou Jingxuan was extremely happy to hear this, she suddenly said: "Don't always call me Fairy Zhou, you can call me Jingxuan."
"Jingxuan?" Hong Zhan was stunned.
Zhou Jingxuan's face was slightly red, but she nodded.
Hong Zhan also felt that it would be more friendly to call her by her name, he nodded and said: "Okay, I'll call you Jingxuan, Xuan means beautiful jade, the person who named you must regard you as a treasure."
Zhou Jingxuan's expression suddenly froze, and then showed a hint of sadness.
"Uh, did I say the wrong thing?" Hong Zhan was stunned.
Zhou Jingxuan shook her head and smiled bitterly: "This is the name my father gave me, he is indeed very good to me, saying that he will protect me for the rest of his life and not let anyone bully me."
Hong Zhan suddenly thought that Zhou Jingxuan's father was dead.
"Uh, I'm sorry, I mentioned your sadness again." Hong Zhan said.
"It's none of your business, I just feel a little cold. I wanted to find someone to help me find the cause of my father's death, but no one helped me, and they kept blocking me from inquiring." Zhou Jingxuan smiled bitterly.
"Is there a problem with the cause of your father's death?" Hong Zhan said solemnly.
"They said it's okay, but I think there is a problem, but no one wants to listen to me, I can only come to Pingnan Sect to find my third uncle, when I arrived at Pingnan Sect, I learned that the third uncle died on Ten Thousand Demon Island, I was also desperate, but now, well, I am about to find my third uncle, the third uncle will definitely seek justice for me, and he will definitely find out the cause of my father's death." Zhou Jingxuan said with a firm look in her eyes.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Hong Zhan asked.
Zhou Jingxuan shook her head and said: "No, you have helped me a lot. Don't interfere in my father's affairs, and don't ask too much."
Although she said it very tactfully, Hong Zhan could hear that the cause of her father's death was extremely involved, and with Hong Zhan's background, he could not intervene at all.
"Okay, if you need me to do anything, you're welcome." Hong Zhan nodded interestingly.
Zhou Jingxuan nodded gently with a gentle expression.
Hong Zhan quickly finished a table of dishes cooked by Zhou Jingxuan, during which he asked Zhou Jingxuan to eat many times, but Zhou Jingxuan just smiled and nodded, but the amount of food became smaller.
After the meal, the two continued to eat the spirit fruit and entered meditation. This time, Hong Zhan swallowed all the remaining four spirit fruits, and the rolling spiritual energy gathered in his body, which was refined into true qi and fiercely impacted the divine veins.
A few days later, a violent black wind broke out on the surface of Hongzhan's body, and with a bang, it poured into the underground river, and in an instant, the river surface froze into ice.
"Breakthrough again?" Zhou Jingxuan's eyes lit up and said.
"It's the ninth level of the Innate Realm." Hong Zhan opened his eyes, nodded and smiled.
"Every time you break through, the wind becomes much colder, and this time it's too exaggerated." Zhou Jingxuan sighed.
"The main thing is that the exercises are good." Hong Zhan smiled, he sniffed his nose again and said: "What did you do this time? It smells so good."
"Guess what." Zhou Jingxuan said proudly.
Hong Zhan was not polite, stepped forward and ate again, and the two had another pleasant dining trip.
After the meal, Hong Zhan handed the golden battle puppet to Zhou Jingxuan and said: "In the previous battle, nearly half of the merit was consumed, and the remaining merit will be given to you first, you protect my body, I will go to the underworld this time and try my best to find your third uncle."
"Okay!"
Hong Zhan pointed to Zhou Jingxuan and said: "By my order, all merits are given to Zhou Jingxuan."
A merit halo wheel appeared behind his head, and with a buzz, the rolling merit went straight towards Zhou Jingxuan, instantly entering Zhou Jingxuan's body.
Then, he used his true qi to activate the coffin lid, and with a buzz, a large amount of black light appeared on the coffin lid.
"Huh?" Hong Zhan was surprised.
"What's wrong?"
"Previously, I needed to activate my true qi several times, and it took me a day to achieve the current effect, why is it done once now?" Hong Zhan was surprised.
"Is it because of your true qi evolution?" Zhou Jingxuan analyzed.
Hong Zhan nodded and said: "It should be so, then I will leave, you pay attention to safety."
"Be careful too." Zhou Jingxuan said seriously.
Hong Zhan led the black light in the coffin lid into his body, and with a buzz, his soul went to the underworld again.
------
A few days ago, in the mountains and forests where Yuan Hongzhan killed Xiang Bao.
The scattered cultivators who used to watch had long since left, but on this night of the full moon, a large number of soldiers gathered.
They guarded Mr. Ghost on the central altar, but saw a large number of oil lamps lit around the altar, and Mr. Ghost was standing on the altar to cast spells.
"The soul is back~" Mr. Ghost shouted.
With a whoosh, the wind around was blowing, and I saw soul phantoms constantly appearing on the oil lamps.
"Xiang Bao?" Xiang Hu shouted with his eyes shining.
But I saw that Xiang Bao's soul was summoned from the underworld, not only Xiang Bao, but also many souls, most of these souls looked dazed, only a few souls were sober, but they all showed great fear.
"Help, Mr. Ghost save me."
"I don't want to stay in hell, I'm all madmen."
"I don't want to be eaten."
……
A group of sane souls cried out in horror.
Mr. Ghost didn't pay attention to them at all, he reached out with a wave of his hand, and with a bang, all the oil lamps went out except for the oil lamp where Xiang Bao was, and all the souls disappeared in an instant.
"Mr. Ghost, save me." Xiang Bao shouted.
Mr. Ghost said in a deep voice: "Tell me about the situation in the underworld."
Xiang Bao nodded and immediately described the situation in the underworld.
"Red moon in the sky? All the dirty souls are crazy?" Mr. Ghost said in a deep voice.
"Yes, although my soul is stronger, my souls are getting stronger all around, and I don't know how long I can last." Xiang Bao said.
Mr. Ghost pondered for a moment and said: "I originally placed a watermark in your soul, called 'Three Nether Wind Dragon', I will teach you how to use it, which can help you become stronger quickly. Remember, you must first make the Three Netherworld Wind Dragon stronger."
"Yes!" Xiang Bao hurriedly said.
Mr. Ghost taught him some activation techniques, and Xiang Bao learned it very seriously, and he learned it quickly.
"Mr. Ghost, what should I do next?" Xiang Bao was extremely worried.
"When the Three Netherworld Wind Dragons are strong enough, you go to the vicinity of Yinfeng Mountain corresponding to the Yin World to find Zhou Wuyou, arrest him, and interrogate him about all the secrets about the Yin World. Mr. Ghost said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Xiang Bao said respectfully.
With a whoosh, Mr. Ghost extinguished the oil lamp under Xiang Bao's feet, Xiang Bao disappeared in a flash, and Mr. Ghost also withdrew the formation.
At this time, Xiang Hu walked forward and said: "Mr. Ghost, is there a big mess in the underworld?"
Mr. Ghost nodded and said, "The Demon Emperor knows that we are here and is cultivating the strongest souls, ready to resist my invasion. You should immediately contact a few monk forces and prepare to form an alliance and cooperate."
"Why work with them?" Xiang Hu asked.
"Now, the demon kings guarding the eyes of the formation are all beware of my formation, only by uniting multiple forces can we break through the eyes of various formations and break the sea of clouds covering the sky as quickly as possible." Mr. Ghost explained.
"However, if you let other forces participate, wouldn't you want to take advantage of them?" Xiang Hu said a little reluctantly.
"Hmph, compared to the Yin Tianzi Seal, what are those spiritual treasures? Don't miss a big deal." Mr. Ghost said coldly.
"Yes!" Xiang Hu could only respond.
"Invite Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan's enemy forces, after breaking these formations, we need them to deal with Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan, block us in front, and get back the coffin lid." Mr. Ghost said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Xiang Hu responded.
