He Qingge had been staring at the blood-colored lotus throne in the middle and the red-robed woman sitting cross-legged on it.
During the time he was locked up, He Qingge could often hear the miserable cries of the woman in the middle, Wan Wan. Every time, her face would be distorted, and her originally beautiful face would become extremely contorted.
It made people shudder after seeing it.
If he wanted to escape, he might need her help.
However, her body was bound by thick chains. They did not look like they were made out of ordinary iron, and there were inexplicable patterns on the chains.
As expected, the chains should be a magic tool.
Although He Qingge was also tied up, he did not receive such treatment. He was only bound by ordinary chains, and there were some talismans to seal the spiritual power in He Qingge's body.
Otherwise, with so many people here, how many magic tools would the other party need?
After Zhu Zheng left, the Sound-Gathering Butterfly successfully came to He Qingge's side and carefully destroyed the talismans on He Qingge's body.
No one noticed the whole process. They had been locked up here for more than ten days. At first, they were still focused on escaping, but after such a long time, they lost all hope.
In such an environment, one's mind would be under great pressure. After the mental tension, they were seriously exhausted.
In addition, the spiritual power in their bodies was sealed, so they could not use it to nourish their bodies and minds.
He Qingge felt the fluctuation of spiritual power in his body and was overjoyed. Fortunately, the Sound-Gathering Butterfly did not follow him that day.
He Qingge still did not move and did not immediately break free from the chains.
He used Hearing to observe his current location and the environment outside.
Soon, the map of his current location and the temple appeared in his mind.
Just like the 3D model detected by radars, it was quite powerful.
He found that the entire temple was quite remote. It was located in a remote corner of Beacon City. There were not many people guarding it, only five people in total.
The five of them were just ordinary people, and their physical fitness was even weaker than ordinary people. It was as if their Qi was about to be sucked dry.
Zhu Zheng, who had brought him here, was not around. If he wanted to escape, now was definitely the best opportunity.
The problem was that the array covered the entire city. Even if he left the temple, he might not be able to leave the city. There was not much difference between escaping and not escaping.
It would only affect whether he died sooner or later. If he fled now, he might die even sooner.
He Qingge could clearly sense the powerful fluctuations coming from the woman in red in the middle of the room.
It far exceeded the Golden Jade White Tiger that he raised among his spirit beasts. One had to know that the Golden Jade White Tiger was at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. One more step and it would be the Foundation Establishment realm.
However, it had been stuck at this step for decades.
The cultivation of this red-dressed woman in front of him was very likely to have already reached the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Even if she had not reached this level of cultivation, she had absorbed the Qi of millions of people. Now that she was gathering them in her body, it was quite terrifying. Once the power erupted, it would probably be unstoppable.
If he could make this red-clothed woman his shield, he would be much safer.
The problem was that she was bound by a magic tool. Without its master by her side, He Qingge was confident that she could be freed.
However, Zhu Zheng, the owner of the magic tool, would definitely be able to sense it immediately.
If He Qingge was not careful, he might die immediately.
Just as He Qingge was about to communicate with the woman in red, he suddenly heard something.
In a small inn not far from the small temple, he sensed that the fluctuation of one person was very similar to Zhu Zheng's, but they were not the same person. This meant that their strength was basically the same.
This person seemed to be guarding a small temple.
Sensing this situation, He Qingge instantly felt despair.
Just Zhu Zheng alone already made him feel very powerless. If another person with similar strength as him appeared, He Qingge would probably only be able to wait for death.
He Qingge focused his attention on this person to see if he could get any information.
Soon, He Qingge's face showed some surprise.
In addition to this person in the Foundation Establishment Realm, there was another person in the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. These two people shared a master and disciple relationship.
"Master, Uncle-Master has already sealed off the entire Beacon City. It seems that he's about to complete his preparations." Xu Yunhe was a little excited.
"Alright, I understand. Don't be impatient. Everything has been planned for you. You just need to wait quietly," Xu Muqi said calmly.
"Master, I'm just too excited. I really didn't expect to be able to use the Heavenly Demon Charm Body to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"This is a great opportunity that can only be encountered by chance. Perhaps I can achieve the legendary perfected Foundation Establishment Realm.
"But Martial-Uncle won't notice us, right? If he discovers us before it's time and uses this grand array, we probably won't be able to resist him!"
Xu Yunhe could not help but fantasize. At the same time, he was a little worried.
He was worried about his gains and losses.
"Xu Yunhe, your talent is very good. You have a great chance of reaching the perfected Foundation Establishment Realm. This time, it's all thanks to your Martial-Uncle who found this Heavenly Demon Charm Body. Otherwise, you really wouldn't have had a chance.
"This means that these things are meant to be yours.
"As for whether he'll discover us or not, there is no need to worry." After Xu Muqi heard about the perfected Foundation Establishment Realm, his originally calm mood fluctuated a little.
"How did you discover that Martial-Uncle had found this Heavenly Demon Charm Body?" Xu Yunhe was curious.
"I was the one who gave him the method to melt his Dao foundation without any harm.
"Since we know that he wants to melt his Dao foundation, then he must want to build his foundation again or he would suffer from a special injury.
"No matter what it is, it's good news for us. As long as we pay close attention, we can always find it.
"I deliberately auctioned this secret method of melting one's Dao foundation without harm using the Righteous Path's Auction.
"That way, others can lure him over. He naturally won't know that we're waiting behind the scenes.
"This is what it's meant by the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Xu Muqi smiled faintly.
Xu Yunhe seemed to worship him. "When can I be like you, my master?"
"Your talent is very good. You don't have to spend so much effort like I did. Perhaps it won't be long before your strength surpasses mine.
"As long as you focus on cultivating quickly, everything else is not important. As long as you succeed in your cultivation, you can directly crush everyone else."
"Master, since Uncle-Master is preparing to melt his Dao foundation and rebuild it, I feel that he'll definitely prepare many backup plans. He'll only begin when everything is ready."
