I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 456: Chapter 239: Self-directing and Performing, Encounter with Wen Xiang Again_3

After escaping from the neighborhood, Han Yi changed his appearance again, assuming the form of a short, thin elderly cultivator at the Supreme Pavilion in Daqin Immortal Country, with a cultivation base at the Foundation Building late stage.

He then returned to the previous neighborhood.

At that moment, the cultivators in the neighborhood were all excitedly searching for someone.

Han Yi found a restaurant, ordered a meal, and then listened to the discussions in the restaurant, which were all about the appearance of Yuan Shun from Xuandan Sect, offering a bounty for a Xuandan Sect traitor, and many people even imagined the portrait of Zhang Tu.

Some were suspicious, some were excited, and some didn’t want to get involved, fearing danger, and prepared to leave the neighborhood.

Han Yi just sat quietly, rented an inn in the evening, and settled down temporarily.

When night fell.

A shadow slipped out of the inn, heading towards a certain street, and that person was, of course, Han Yi, but at this moment, he took on the appearance of Zhang Tu from Zhang Hai’s memory.

He planned to stage his own show to confirm Yuan Shun’s appearance while luring out the cultivator who might kill Qin Wuxian.

Suddenly.

A cultivator appeared in front of Han Yi, grinning viciously and attacking Han Yi.

“Caught you.”

“Kill!”

Han Yi raised his eyebrows, as this cultivator was actually in the Middle Golden Core Stage.

But after a second thought, he realized that only Golden Core cultivators could escape from Yuan Shun and dare to intercept, and Foundation Establishment cultivators wouldn’t dare to get involved in this matter.

However, the appearance of this Golden Core cultivator was fitting.

Han Yi lightly swayed, his body disappeared on the spot, and the Light Body Technique completely merged him into the night.

Next.

A flash of golden light, like a light piercing through the night, appeared instantaneously, causing the Mid-stage Golden Core cultivator to change his face in shock.

However.

This cultivator was just a loose cultivator, and his treasure was just an inferior one. It was directly pierced and broken by the golden light. The speed of the golden light didn’t decrease, and it directly penetrated through the loose cultivator’s head.

Moreover, the Divine Soul-killing sword was attached to the Traceless Sword, which directly annihilated the Divine Soul.

Han Yi brushed by, took the broken treasure and Qiankun Ring, and disappeared in a flash.

Then, at the end of the street, he changed his appearance to a burly young man, turned around, and the young man shouted.

“It’s the cultivator hunted by Yuan Shun!”

“Damn, he killed someone!”

In an instant, many cultivators hiding in the darkness began to emerge and surrounded the area. However, upon seeing the lifeless loose cultivator on the ground, many cultivators showed fear in their eyes, and some already gave up the idea of fighting.

“It’s Song Ye.”

“Song Ye was at the Middle Golden Core stage. It seems he was just killed in one hit. This Xuandan Sect traitor must have the strength of the Late-stage Golden Core.”

“No wonder, no wonder he could escape from Xuandan Monarch’s hands.”

“This person is too fierce. It’s better not to get involved. I’ll leave.”

Quite a few Early-stage Golden Core cultivators, seeing the situation clearly, retreated one after another, including Han Yi, who had disguised himself as a burly young man. Only a small number of Mid-stage and Late-stage Golden Core cultivators had flashing eyes and did not give up.

However.

Instead of going back to the inn, Han Yi, who had escaped, followed a Golden Core cultivator closely, compressing his own aura to the point that even those in the Golden Core Stage could not detect it.

After stepping into the Return to the Truth level of the Disguise Technique, not only could he temporarily mimic Yuan Shun’s aura, but also his ability to conceal his breath was much stronger than the Concealment Skill.

This was also because Han Yi had learned the Disguise Technique, and the effect of this skill now included the reason for the Concealment Skill.

Han Yi followed this Golden Core cultivator because, although he did not recognize the cultivator’s appearance, he recognized his aura.

More than eight years ago, Han Yi encountered an ambush by three Golden Core cultivators from the Fragrance Sect on Yuan Lao Mountain. At that time, Han Yi, as a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator, fought against the three Golden Cores, one of which was a burly cultivator with a huge sword.

That cultivator, who was slashed by Han Yi, took his Divine Soul and carried his body, fleeing away.

While Han Yi didn’t know that cultivator’s name, he recognized the cultivator’s aura and appearance.

The cultivator Han Yi was tracking at the moment coincidentally had the same aura as that burly young man, but his appearance had changed to a middle-aged man in his forties.

“The Hall Master of the Fragrance Sect.” A cold look appeared on Han Yi’s face.

At this moment.

Shi Heng appeared to be genuinely worried. Although he no longer had three identities, just two: one as the Hall Master of the Fragrance Sect and another as a loose cultivator. As for his previous identity as the Supreme Elder of the Inquiry Immortal Sect, he did not dare to return to the sect after being killed by Han Yi.

Over eight years ago, Han Yi killed his body and allowed his Divine Soul to escape. He later fled along with Pang Li, and after returning to the headquarters of the Fragrance Sect, he was given a new body and-high-grade Fragrance pills by a Protector, allowing him to survive the seizure.

However, after the seizure, his cultivation base remained at the Early-stage Golden Core level and could no longer advance.

He naturally hated Han Yi of the Xuandan Sect to death, as well as the Xuandan Sect itself.

However.

He came here today because Yuan Shun had suddenly appeared in the neighborhood. The Protector of the Saint Sect asked him to investigate the matter. He naturally understood the Protector’s concerns because, half a year ago, a cultivator from Xuandan Sect accidentally discovered a major event that the Saint Sect was about to launch.

The Protector of the Saint Sect immediately started to eliminate that person, destroying even their soul essence.

If anything, that cultivator was simply too unlucky. Moreover, that cultivator even caused quite a few troubles. Even the Champion Marquis seemed to have noticed something. If it weren’t for…

When Shi Heng thought of this, a sudden chill enveloped his heart because he sensed something mysterious following closely behind him.

Next instant.

He only heard a “puchi” sound, which was the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the flesh of a neck. His vision quickly flipped along with the faint sound.

Before the pain set in, he already felt a hand grabbing his head.

A destructive aura surged into his Sea of Consciousness, wreaking havoc..
