Volume Six, Chapter Three [Successive Frustrations]
Volume 6, Chapter 3 [Successive setbacks]
Wang Rui received a transmission message, which was the voice of a mysterious person, telling him to go somewhere alone and not to alert anyone, otherwise Li Xiyue would be in danger.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Linghu Xiao asked immediately when he saw Wang Rui's expression changed.
Wang Rui shook his head and said, "It's a personal matter, I'll go out for a while, senior." He didn't want to trouble Linghu Xiao with anything, even though he had a close relationship with him.
Linghu Xiao saw that he didn't want to say anything, so he didn't hesitate to ask. After all, Wang Rui also had his own freedom.
After leaving Bai Yao Valley, he immediately set up his magic weapon and left Xutian Sect, heading for a private meeting place that only he and Li Xiyue knew about.
In a hidden place within a hundred miles from the location, he left the beacon sword behind and then continued to the cave.
When he arrived a few hundred meters away from the cave, Wang Rui suddenly felt a sense of crisis. This was purely an intuition, but he knew that this kind of intuition was often the same, and his heart suddenly sank.
"Hey, you can actually find me." A man's voice sounded, and then the space in front of him rippled, and a man with a bald head and a mask soon appeared.
"Shadow Society?" Wang Rui immediately woke up.
The bald man smiled and said, "As the rumors say, you are very vigilant and unpredictable. Wang Rui, you are very good. Do you want to join us?"
"Oh, I've killed quite a few of you, but you don't mind if I join?" Wang Rui teased.
The man was silent for a while and said: "It's easy to say, the Shadow will always eliminate the weak and stupid. As long as you are willing to join, everything is easy to say."
"Where is Li Xiyue?" Wang Rui couldn't sense her breath and asked calmly.
The bald man replied: "We have brought her back to the head of the Shadow Society. If you want to see her, the only way is to join us."
"Hahaha..." Wang Rui suddenly laughed loudly, which made the man opposite him angry. Few people dared to be so presumptuous in front of him.
"Why are you laughing?" the man asked.
Wang Rui replied in a disdainful tone: "You don't have to beat around the bush here, just say what you want. I consider myself to be far inferior to Li Xiyue in terms of qualifications. I'm not a genius at all, so why bother hiding it here?"
"Okay, you are really quick to talk. Originally, I planned to get rid of you directly, but now there is indeed something you need to do. As long as you complete the task we gave you, Li Xiyue may be able to return to you by then." The man.
This time I spoke much more directly.
Wang Rui stared at this person and asked, "It's hard for me to believe what you said. Is Li Xiyue in danger?"
"Whether she is in danger or not depends on you, Wang Rui. Whether you believe it or not, you have to do it. You have no choice. Decide. If you don't agree, then you don't have to go back." After saying that, the man stretched out his hand toward him.
When he grasped his surroundings, the surrounding space suddenly seemed to be squeezed, making Wang Rui feel that the surrounding space had solidified and compressed a lot, like a cage.
Wang Rui used the air-returning technique, but found that it was useless. It was as if he had been sealed by the opponent. Perhaps the difference in strength between himself and the opponent was too great.
"Tell me, what kind of task do you want me to complete?" Wang Rui knew that the other party did not really want his life.
The man nodded, then flicked his sleeves, and a ray of light flew out, slowly falling in front of Wang Rui.

Wang Rui reached out to catch it and found that it was a sky-blue porcelain cup with a lid.
"The treasure-hunting battlefield that takes place once every sixty years is about to open. At that time, all the major immortal sects will send their elite disciples to participate in the treasure-hunting. However, the battlefield is located in a multi-dimensional rift, and only monks with a cultivation level below the pill formation level are allowed to enter.
Wang Rui, we hope you will also participate and help us get something back." The man stated his purpose.
Some memories suddenly flashed through Wang Rui's mind. He seemed to have heard about this battlefield from someone. It seemed to be a dimensional space that connected many dimensions, so various treasures from other dimensions often flowed into it.
However, he is a little unsure. He is actually a pill-forming monk now. However, due to the relationship between fellow cultivators of the two methods, his cultivation level will change accordingly due to the conversion of the skills. He just doesn't know if it will change when the time comes.
form an obstacle.
"Do you think I can enter the treasure hunting battlefield?" Wang Rui asked with a frown.
The bald man smiled sinisterly and said: "If you can't get in, just wait to collect Li Xiyue's body. After the sapphire cup I just gave you enters the treasure hunting battlefield, as long as it is injected with spiritual power, it will direct the treasure.
Once you find the location, open the lid and put it in it and bring it back to me. You have to remember, Wang Rui, we are not just looking for you to get this treasure, so you need to defeat other competitors to complete the task.
I don’t care what the process is, I just want the result, and that’s it, you can take care of yourself.”
The man turned around and left, and the space rippled for a while, then merged into it and disappeared without a trace.
At this time, Wang Ruicai felt that the surrounding space had thawed, and the sense of restraint gradually disappeared.
"This person oppressed me far more than Senior Linghu. The Shadow Society is indeed the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Xiyue, it was me who harmed you." He suddenly remembered that in the land of monsters, Bao Guanping, a leopard monk,
The curse placed on him and Linghu Xiao before his death, among the curses left to him, said that he would be alone if he was destined to commit a crime. Now, this curse seems to be showing its power.
Li Xiyue's mysterious disappearance will definitely cause a great shock to the Xutian Sect. Leguishan will not let it go. However, although he is a Nascent Soul monk, he is unable to face the Shadow Society, the four top sects, which are more powerful than him.
Nor can it be done alone.
When I returned to Baiyao Valley with a heavy heart, I suddenly felt the smell of the fight lingering in the surrounding air. I was shocked again and hurried to my residence.
The residence was in good condition, and even the tea was still warm, but Linghu Xiao was missing.
When he carefully looked at the desktop, he suddenly discovered that a line of text written in tea gradually appeared on Linghu Xiao's position.
"If an uninvited guest comes to visit, leave for a while and don't think about it. - Linghu"
Bang!
Wang Rui punched the table hard, and the remaining warm tea poured over and flowed out.
"Shadow Society...Cao Wuwu..." Wang Rui's eyes shot out with deep hatred. At this moment, he wanted to rush to Tianlei Peak and kill Cao Wuwu immediately. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it yet and could only suppress this impulse.
.If you don’t have the strength to take revenge, you are seeking death. A wise man will not do this.
Sure enough, within a few days, the Xutian Sect became agitated. It seemed that the ancestor of the sect, Yuan Ying, was very angry for some reason, and Li Xiyue spread the news that he had secluded himself from life and death. It was said that he was in order to comprehend the joy of return.
The new technique taught to her by Shan.
Wang Rui was also found

I asked, but almost no one would think of connecting him with Li Xiyue.
However, after the sect learned that Wang Rui's cultivation had once again returned to the peak of foundation building, the sect received high-level attention. Le Guishan even personally summoned him, promoted him to a core sect member, and granted him the status of a foundation building elder.
.
However, when Wang Rui proposed to participate in the upcoming treasure hunting battlefield, Le Guishan still hesitated. After all, in addition to the huge profits, the treasure hunting battlefield also had a very high death rate. At the moment, Li Xiyue, as a leader of the younger generation, did not know whether he would live or die.
Wang Rui can be regarded as a talented person. It would be a pity if he died in vain.
However, with Wang Rui's insistence, Le Guishan agreed. After all, if a disciple with outstanding strength could snatch it, it would be a huge gain if he could return home with a full load.
The treasure hunting battlefield will be opened in a year. At that time, Wang Rui and other fellow sects will go there under the escort of the elders of the sect's Dan Jie. They will compete and fight with the disciples of other immortal sects inside for all possible treasures.
, usually they need to stay for three years before they get the chance to come out. Of course, the premise is that they are still alive by then.
Wang Rui returned to Baiyao Valley again, and he was the only one left here again, and this time Li Xiyue did not know whether he was alive or dead. Suppressing all the emotions in his heart, Wang Rui returned to his boring cultivation life again.
This time, he was no longer pursuing a breakthrough in cultivation, but rather sorting out the various spells and magic weapons he already had and strengthening them at the same time.
In terms of spells, he still focused on thunder-based techniques. Because he realized that he could not switch skills on the battlefield, he gave up the plan of looking for earth-based spells.
At present, the five major spells in "Thunder Yin Jue" and the three major spells in "The Sun Like Thunder Sword" are his foundation, and they are both quite good. If he is to fight against the alchemy monks in the future, there may be some shortcomings.
But in the treasure hunting battlefield, it is precisely the place where its power and advantages can be best exerted.
He has completely mastered these thunder spells and has used them in actual combat many times. It will be difficult to strengthen them for a while unless the corresponding skills and strength are improved again.
As for magical weapons, the most powerful one is naturally the quasi-magical weapon refined by Linghu Xiao for him - "Ice Spirit Sword and Shield", which can even cause enough damage to the Danjie monks and can also resist accordingly. In addition, he also
There are a bunch of talismans, such as the Matte Shield, the Tide Hammer, the Netherworld Claw, etc.
In addition, he also has the "Spirit Binding Rope", the "Earth Soul Bell" and the "Soul Reaper Hammer" that he took from the Leopard Girl in the land of monsters. They are all very good treasures in the foundation building period, as long as they don't encounter
The overly powerful peak-level foundation-building monks should be enough to handle it.
Not only that, he also obtained a mount-type magic weapon from the leopard girl, a white leopard that can fly, which he has named "Flying Snow".
Finally, the "Soul Prisoner Tower" originally obtained from Liu Xi, a senior member of the Shadow Society, the former Queen of the Zhou Kingdom and the daughter of Cao Wuwu, is a very good quasi-magic weapon that can absorb the power of the soul-death system of resentful souls.
, and then used to summon ghost generals. The strength of ghost generals is at least in the middle stage of foundation building, or even in the later stages, and will become one of his trump cards.
Taking out the "Soul Prisoner Tower" from the high-end storage bag from the Yuanying monk, Wang Rui converted the skill to "Huanglong Gong", and his realm was immediately upgraded to the pill-forming realm. Then he planned to completely destroy the Soul Prisoner Tower.
