Chapter 262: Chapter 176: Kill by the Scent_3
Translator: 549690339
On Han Yi’s left side stood a burly man with a full beard. He spat and sneered at Han Yi, holding a two-meter-long, wide, and heavy-looking black blade in his hand.
This man was one of the cultivators who had landed earlier, landing right behind Han Yi.
Han Yi raised his eyebrows upon hearing the words.
The information revealed by this guy’s statement was too intriguing.
Knowing his name meant that the other party was not a robbing cultivator but was specifically here to hunt him down.
He had only acted in the name of Heavenly Will Sect twice, once in Daqian Immortal City and once in Jia Shan City.
This pursuit? It meant there was another one before?
But when exactly did they try to kill him before? And how did he not know?
This indicated that during the last pursuit, it was when he was acting in the name of the Heavenly Will Sect. The time in Daqian Immortal Country could be basically ruled out. Back then, he was either with Master Tian Xin or Qin Wuxian. The trio – merely Foundation Establishment Cultivators wouldn’t dare to chase after a Nascent Soul True Monarch or Master Golden Core.
There was only one answer left.
!!..
They chased him when he left Jia Shan City last time, but they didn’t catch up. Later, they borrowed a higher-quality Immortal Boat from the so-called hall master, and this time they could finally catch up with him.
Jia Shan City?
The six factions? The Li family? Fragrance Sect?
For the six factions, the probability was extremely low.
As for the Li family, it was rumored that there were only three Foundation Establishment Cultivators. He had killed two of them, so there could only be one left at most.
So, there was only one answer.
The Fragrance Sect.
The other party was a cultivator from the Fragrance Sect.
Han Yi had read the Fragrance Sect’s files. The sect was structured with one leader, followed by eight guardians, thirty-three hall masters, and four hundred ninety-nine preachers.
Considering the other party said, “borrowed the hall master’s Immortal Boat,” he should be one of the thirty-three hall masters of the Fragrance Sect.
The information matched.
The other party came from the Fragrance Sect and was a preacher of the sect.
In just a brief moment, Han Yi deduced the identity of the other party from a single sentence. This was Han Yi’s reasoning and inference based on the information, making perfect sense.
However.
During his Foundation Building Early Stage, he was able to compete with a Blood God Sect’s Foundation Building Middle-Level without losing. Facing Yuan Changtian, although he relied on a third-stage Spiritual Talisman, he still managed to kill Yuan Changtian.
When he reached the Foundation Building Middle Level, he was confident that he could face the Foundation Building late stage without fear.
The other party was just three Foundation Building Middle-Level cultivators, and there was no Foundation Building late stage, let alone Gold Core cultivators. How dare they chase and kill him with this configuration?
Han Yi’s eyes flickered with a faint golden light as he scanned the void, trying to check if there were other cultivators hidden in the void. His vision saw only three intertwined and entangled lines of different colors surrounding him, with no other hidden auras.
With this, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat reassured.
From the destruction of the Immortal Boat and Han Yi preparing to flee to the three cultivators surrounding him and the bearded rough man talking, Han Yi guessed the other party’s identity and used the Qi Observation Skill to probe around.
All this time, it was just three short breaths.
These three breaths were merely a few steps for ordinary people, but for cultivators, especially Foundation Establishment Cultivators, it was already several rounds of secret confrontations.
“Being able to become a patrolmaster with a Foundation Building cultivation base, your talent must be extraordinary. The Fragrance pills you nurtured must be of top quality, far stronger than your fellow disciples.”
“The hall master will be pleased, and the rewards will definitely be generous.”
On the right rear side, the last cultivator who had landed was a thin and tall young man. This young man had a gloomy and stern face, making him appear unapproachable. He stared at Han Yi with a cold smile.
Fragrance pill?
Fellow disciples?
In Han Yi’s mind, he was already 100% sure of his earlier guess that the other party was a preacher of the Fragrance Sect.
He glanced at the Yin Jiu Youth and saw a deep killing intent in his eyes as if he was staring at a dead person.
Then, he looked back at the mysterious cultivator in front of him, who had landed first and blocked his way.
This cultivator was dressed in a black robe, covering even his head, making it impossible to see his face. However, Han Yi noticed that the lines making up the other party’s aura under the Qi Observation Skill were black and denser than the other two put together.
Based on previous experiences, Han Yi already knew that the denser the lines under the Qi Observation Skill, the higher the cultivator’s cultivation base. In other words, this mysterious black-robed cultivator was much stronger than the other two.
This was a Foundation Building Middle-Level cultivator who was not only at the peak but also on the verge of breaking through to the Foundation Building late stage.
Among the three people, the black-robed female cultivator posed the greatest danger.
“The hall master ordered us to capture him alive.”
“I’ll restrain him, and you make him take the Soul Breaking Pill.”
A female voice came from the black robe.
At the next moment, the black-robed female cultivator stretched out her hand, revealing a fair and delicate arm. Her palm opened towards Han Yi.
Suddenly, Han Yi’s heart was filled with a sense of unease, as if a great horror was about to descend.
An invisible wave spread from the black-robed female cultivator’s palm, swept over Han Yi, and instantly penetrated Han Yi’s mind, entering the Sea of Consciousness Space, echoing through his Sea of Consciousness.
At the center of the Sea of Consciousness, the divine soul that had just opened its eyes suddenly stiffened. Then, it became confused, and even the soul sword that had originally condensed in front of it quickly dissipated, turning into divine soul energy and fusing into the soul body.
In the outside world, Han Yi’s face changed dramatically and instantly froze.
A faint confusion appeared in his eyes, as if he had forgotten who he was, why he was here, and that he was in danger.
At the same time, when the black-robed female cultivator launched this strange magic skill, the complexions of the two cultivators behind Han Yi on his left and right sides also changed slightly.
Both the bearded rough man and the Yin Jiu Youth were extremely wary of the biack-robed female cultivator, and their figures retreated several steps back.
Next.
The Yin Jiu Youth took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, opened the cap, and used his magic power to pull a black pill out from the bottle. Then, he flew over thirty meters with the pill, trying to stuff it into Han Yi’s mouth.
This pill, called Soul Breaking Pill, was a wicked pill refined by the Fragrance Sect. It was made using the fragments of the souls of dying cultivators who had nurtured Fragrance pills, along with some nefarious herbs.
Once a cultivator took the pill, even their divine soul would lose cognition, falling into a deep coma.
This was a commonly used wicked pill by the Fragrance Sect to capture Foundation Building cultivators and above.
Just when the Soul Breaking Pill was about to fall into Han Yi’s mouth, in the Sea of Consciousness, Han Yi’s divine soul sensed a fatal danger instinctively. His soul trembled and instantly transformed into a Ninefold Soul Tower.
The Ninefold Soul Tower was the same height as the original divine soul, but when it existed in the form of the tower, the strange fluctuations in the Sea of Consciousness Space were directly blocked outside the Soul Tower, and Han Yi’s divine soul was no longer in a stupor.
At that moment.
A cold light flashed across Han Yi’s eyes in the outside world..
