After a few days, He Ling expanded the secret room a little more.

That day, she took out a wooden sign, sensed it, and after confirming that the illusion array had no reaction, she pushed away the long-dusty boulder. It had just rained outside and the air was still a little damp. He Ling took a breath of fresh air and her heart was shocked.

Although she is already a cultivator, as long as there is enough spiritual energy, she can stay in the cave for several years without any problem, but she can still feel a different kind of experience when she goes out for a walk.

Actually, He Ling had only stayed in the cave for about ten days, but now that he had come out, it felt as if a lifetime had passed.

He shook his head, dispelled the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and walked towards a pool of water not far away.

The soil in the mountains is mostly mixed with gravel, and the soil is poor and dry. The best soil is the thin mud in the pond.

The pond was not deep, and a few small fish could be seen swimming in the water. He Ling took off her shoes and socks, lifted her robe and tucked it around her waist, took a hoe in her hand, and began to dig the mud in the pond. This hoe was a spiritual weapon, which she bought specifically for taking care of the spiritual field. She did not leave it behind when she left, and put it into her storage bag.

He Ling was already a cultivator and was very strong. After a while, the mud on the shore piled up like a mountain. He Ling looked at the mud and felt that it was enough, so he walked ashore.

Just as he opened the storage bag and was about to put the mud in, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and then a bronze bell shadow appeared on He Ling's body in an instant, covering He Ling.

With a "clang" sound, the shadow of the bronze bell created a ripple, blocking the attack.

He Ling reacted instantly. A green sword emerged from her storage bag. She took it in her hand and retreated violently.

The moment He Ling retreated, a figure rushed up and a big yellow knife appeared in front of He Ling.

He Ling raised her sword to block, but the force of the sword was much greater than she had imagined. However, after her body had been strengthened so many times, she was able to barely block the attack.

With a "bang", she was knocked two or three meters away, and her knuckles felt numb. He Ling didn't have time to see who was in front of her. She poured spiritual power into the sword in her hand and slashed at the person with a sword energy.

This sword energy was originally slashed out by He Ling in a panic, and since she was not a sword practitioner, the green sword energy was easily dodged by the person who came.

However, He Ling did not expect the sword energy to hit him. The spiritual power in his body circulated, and several fireball talismans floated out of his storage bag. In an instant, more than ten fireballs the size of washbasins flew towards the man.

The man swung his sword, and the yellow sword energy flashed, destroying all five fireballs. The fireballs were no longer surrounded by a net, and the man standing on the other side easily avoided the fireballs.

Only then did He Ling see clearly who was coming.

"Xu Tao, it's actually you!"

The person who came was a big man wearing a spiritual robe, it was Xu Tao.

Xu Tao smiled and said, "Friend He, you made me wait so long. I waited for you for ten days before you dared to show your head."

It turned out that Xu Tao had just come to He Ling to get today's fireball talisman that day, but after waiting for a long time, he saw three strange men coming out of the cave. He became suspicious and followed them. Along the way, he saw them avoiding the monks and taking a detour, until they arrived at this cave, and then they revealed their true appearance.

Xu Tao was delighted. He was worried that he couldn't find an opportunity to capture He Ling, but he didn't expect her to come to him on her own initiative. However, seeing that there was a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi training among the entourage, he didn't take it lightly. He was outnumbered three at a time, and if they escaped, it would be bad. He hid himself first and waited until today, when he finally got the chance.

He Ling's brows furrowed slightly. "Xu Tao, do you know that I have a companion who is at the fourth level of Qi training, and you are only at the fifth level? If the two of us join forces, do you really think you can gain any benefit?"

Xu Tao's smile remained unchanged. "Don't worry, I already knew you were accompanied by a cultivator of the fourth level of Qi Refining. I've already set up a silence formation around here. Even if you scream at the top of your lungs, they won't be able to hear a single word."

"I advise you to give up resistance as soon as possible. Even if you carry several spiritual weapons, how much spiritual power can you have at the second level of Qi Refining? I'm afraid those two attacks just now have consumed nearly half of your spiritual power."

He Ling said nothing and looked around first, but didn't see any formation flags. However, since their fight made so much noise but didn't attract Qi Wan and her daughter to come out to check the situation, what Xu Tao said should be true.

"Well, have you thought it over? Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you after you surrender. I'll still do as I said before. We can still embark on the Great Dao together and become Dao companions. With my cultivation level at the fifth level of Qi Refining, I can do whatever I want to you without any loss."

Xu Tao said as he slowly approached He Ling.

Xu Tao's heart was naturally not as rosy as he said. Now that he had captured this man, he would have the final say no matter what.

He Ling seemed to be really thinking about it and didn't move at all.

When Xu Tao was within five meters of He Ling, He Ling said, "I've made up my mind."

Xu Tao, who was about to take action, stopped and asked, "Oh, what's your answer?"

"Do you know why we have to hide our identities and flee Yuxian Town?"

Xu Tao frowned slightly. Although it was not what he wanted to hear, he became curious.

"Why?"

"because."

The next moment, a fiery red bead suddenly shot towards Xu Tao. Xu Tao's pupils shrank. He was a cultivator who specialized in hunting monsters, so his reaction was very fast. He dodged in just a moment, but the fiery red bead was too fast and too close to him.

The bead did not hit his body, but his left arm was damaged. The bead hit his left elbow hard, and the intense high temperature instantly burned through the surface flesh. The bones inside could not even hold on for half a second and were immediately burned black. Then the bead touched him lightly, and the arm connected to his left hand fell off directly.

"Ah!" Xu Tao let out a scream and almost broke his teeth. He never expected that He Ling could actually take out a mid-grade spiritual weapon.

However, he was worthy of being a cultivator who had hunted monsters and experienced many battles. He covered his left arm with one hand, turned around and fled. At the fifth level of Qi Refining, he ran as fast as he could and disappeared from He Ling's sight in the blink of an eye.

However, He Ling was not panicked at all. Although she would definitely not be able to catch up with Xu Tao, she had already prepared for the scenario in which this situation might occur.

He took out a palm-sized green boat from the storage bag, another mid-grade spiritual weapon - the Wind-Breaking Boat!

In a blink of an eye, the palm-sized boat expanded to the size of a normal boat. He Ling stepped onto the boat and used all his strength to activate the spiritual energy in his body. There was only a sound of breaking wind, and the boat disappeared from its original place.

Xu Tao was still running away. His eyes were bloodshot and veins were bulging on his forehead.

He couldn't understand why He Ling had a mid-grade spiritual weapon. She already had a defensive spiritual weapon and a sword spiritual weapon. Each of them cost at least three or four hundred spirit stones. A mid-grade spiritual weapon would cost at least a thousand spirit stones. She usually stayed in Yuxian Town, so it was impossible for her to have had an encounter somewhere.

Although the price of fireball talismans has skyrocketed in recent days, the price of talisman paper has also skyrocketed. How much spiritual hemp can one cultivate by oneself? At this moment, Xu Tao couldn't figure out where she got so many spiritual stones to buy so many spiritual weapons.

You have to know that he has been selling He Ling's talismans for so long, and he only bought a spiritual Taoist robe.

He vaguely heard a gust of wind coming from behind, but he still fled forward regardless without looking back. He didn't believe that He Ling could catch up with him, unless she had another flying spiritual weapon, and it had to be at least a mid-grade spiritual weapon. He didn't believe that He Ling could come up with so many spirit stones.

"Qing'er, come up."

Xu Tao's pupils shrank, and the next moment, he felt a slight pain in his neck...
