Chapter 1449: The mystery left by the Holy Merchant

The scene of the immortal restoration fell into a strange silence.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to speak first.

After a long time, someone asked weakly: "Brother Dao, the news we received is that the coffin for the world is fake, right?"

Everyone looked at Dao Yuan at a loss.

Dao Yuan, who always behaved very calmly, also had a flash of panic in his eyes. However, he still coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't be confused! Maybe the coffin was just covered up by the two immortals Xiyi with unpredictable means, and it may still be in the same place. We..."

Before he finished speaking, a panicked voice interrupted him: "How is it possible? It is obviously a fake coffin, but it can really save the world?!"

As this person spoke, he flew towards the original location of the coffin regardless of everything.

It was Nangong Hongzhao who was sure of the authenticity of the coffin before!

"Oops!" All the newly promoted immortal hunters were shocked. If it was as Daoyuan judged, then Nangong Hongzhao's move would most likely cause him to face the two true immortals directly and die on the spot, and would also expose all the other people who were ambushing in secret.

Everyone wanted to stop Nangong Hongzhao's reckless behavior.

However, this person was erratic and his speed was unimaginably fast. He had arrived at the destination in the blink of an eye.

Everyone's breath was choked.

Fortunately, the expected tragic scene did not happen.

However, everyone's expression did not become relaxed because of this. Instead, they were more distraught.

"The coffin for crossing the world is really gone."

"It disappeared with two Xiyi true immortals."

The seriousness of the matter was obviously beyond the control of this group of newly promoted immortal hunters. So Daoyuan decisively chose to report it through the Dao Network.

And the reaction on the other end of the Dao Network was also somewhat beyond his imagination.

"What? The immortal bait is gone? This is impossible!"

"In the observation of the Dao Network, it is still in the same place!"

"Where is Yan Xuantai! Why didn't he contact me!"

The furious voice spread to everyone's ears from the distant center of the Shuoxing Sea through the ripples of the Dao Network.

When the last word was said, the owner of the voice had really arrived here.

It was a short old man who was only three feet tall.

The silver-white beard and hair were even longer than his body. It was like a flowing cloud at his feet.

The old man's face was terribly gloomy, and his eyes swept over everyone.

This group of newly promoted immortal hunters all lowered their heads subconsciously, not daring to look at the old man.

"Who is this..."

Li Fan also felt the power of the old man in front of him.

As the old man breathed, the invisible Dao string between heaven and earth emitted corresponding waves. The Dao Network here even became clearer and more stable because of the old man's arrival.

In Ma Tiande's memory, he had seen this old man from a distance.

The meeting where he got the position of Dao Network Operator was presided over by the old man.

"One of the elders of the Shuo Xinghai Governing Council is Nangong Fusheng."

Nangong Fusheng teleported to the original location of the Immortal Bait Xuan Coffin. Looking at Nangong Hongzhao who was standing there and whispering something incoherently, Nangong Fusheng angrily shouted "waste!"

He slapped Nangong Hongzhao away.

Letting him fly uncontrollably in the sea of ​​stars, Nangong Fusheng's fury gradually calmed down and looked around carefully.

Ripples emanated from Nangong Fusheng as the center.

The Immortal Hunters who were watching from afar felt that the whole world seemed to have turned into a violent and stormy sea. It was churning and roaring. The whistling waves seemed to be able to swallow them up completely at any time. They could only rely on the power of the Dao Network to maintain their stability.

The Dao Network was rippling.

In the end, Nangong Fusheng pulled out a long black spike with colorful light from the void with his right hand.

After the spike was taken out, Nangong Fusheng laughed instead of being angry: "Yan Xuantai, what a trick! He can deceive the Dao Network and deceive the world!"

The newly promoted immortal hunters also stared at the black and colorful spike in Nangong Fusheng's hand.

Their eyes flickered.

In their previous cognition, the Dao Network was equivalent to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The power of heaven and earth is unmatched in the world. They can only find ways to control it.

But now, they have officially joined the Immortal Hunting Organization and performed their first mission.

They encountered the existence of being able to deceive the Dao Network.

Even in full view of the public, they staged a golden cicada escaping from the shell.

"Who is this Yan Xuantai?"

Everyone couldn't help but have doubts in their hearts.

The fake Xuan coffin actually ran away with the two real immortals who were regarded as prey. And there is also a faint shadow of conspiracy by the internal personnel of the Shuoxinghai Immortal Hunting Organization.

This is by no means a trivial matter.

Soon, in addition to Nangong Fusheng, three other monks arrived one after another.

Even though they concealed their figures and restrained their own power. But their arrival still seemed to set off a storm in this underground network. A group of newly promoted immortal hunters could only tremble. Faced with inquiries, they did not dare to hide anything and told the truth.

"Go back first."

"I don't think this matter is that simple."

Nangong Fusheng said to the three figures in a deep voice, and he did not mean to hide it in front of everyone.

Silver beard and hair, long without wind.

Wrapped all the immortal hunters inside.

When he was about to leave, Li Fan vaguely heard Nangong Hongzhao's anxious cry from outside the silver hair package: "Third uncle, wait for me!"

Silver hair enveloped and dispersed.

In just a blink of an eye, everyone was brought back to the center of the Shuoxing Sea.

They were taken into dark compartments for a second interrogation.

Since they were indeed newcomers who knew nothing, the organization did not make it too difficult. After just a few routine interrogations, it was over.

However, there was no intention to let them go. They were still placed in countless dark compartments like death row.

Although everyone's freedom of movement was not restricted. But it was limited to this area.

Unable to leave.

The endless darkness gradually devoured everyone's mind.

At the beginning, a group of newly promoted immortal hunters still had hope. They thought that the imprisonment would end soon.

But as the days passed, the organization seemed to have completely forgotten them. Since they were placed here, there was no sound.

Slowly, everyone's mentality also changed differently.

"I understand. Hunting for the True Immortals and the disappearance of the Xuanguan are all part of the Immortal Hunting Assessment. We are still in the assessment! I must cheer up and not be decadent!"

"I thought I had a bright future, but I encountered such a thing. I am afraid that my life is ruined."

"The Xuanguan disappeared with two True Immortals. Such a big thing must be someone's responsibility. Could it be that we are used as scapegoats?"

...

Most people are in a state of panic.

In such a situation, those who can remain calm are the real geniuses.

Li Fan felt the three sword intentions that never stopped next to him and nodded slightly.

"Since Jin Changyue was imprisoned, he has been nurturing this sword intention. He was imprisoned for no reason and suffered an unjustifiable injustice, and the resentment in his heart was born. But it is the best time to cultivate the sword with intention."

"However, if this sword intention wants to be perfect, it needs to be sacrificed to someone."

In addition to Jin Changyue, Daoyuan can also be considered calm. Except for the initial fluctuations in the aura, the rest of the time, it was like a hidden dragon in the abyss, quietly dormant, waiting for the opportunity.

And Li Fan's heart, of course, would not have any impatience. But he still concealed his incompetence, constantly pretending to show anxiety and despair.

In fact, he kept recalling the scene when the two immortals Xiyi activated the coffin of crossing the world and left.

The mysterious sound recited by the two immortals Xiyi slowly faded in Li Fan's memory as time passed. Even the inscription of the Dao Stone was the same.

Li Fan could only repeat it over and over again to deepen his impression.

But the trend that eventually faded completely could not be changed after all.

Li Fan also tried to directly use the micro-Dao network in his mind to reflect the fluctuations at that time.

However, the vibrations of the great Dao of heaven and earth caused by the mysterious sound were all inside the coffin.

Li Fan only observed from a distance through the Dao network and could not record it accurately.

"That mysterious coffin is said to be fake, but it is actually real."

"Except that it cannot save the world, it is almost the same as the real mysterious coffin..."

Li Fan remembered what Nangong Hongzhao said before, and his heart moved.

Although Nangong Hongzhao was not brought back by Nangong Fusheng before. But after a few days, he was still thrown into the black prison here.

However, he did not show anxiety or worry. Instead, he looked as if he had messed up something and was very depressed.

These days, he just lay on the ground lazily.

Closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Li Fan quietly approached.

"Brother Nangong, there is something I have been holding back for a long time."

"It's like a fishbone stuck in my throat, I won't be happy if I don't ask!"

Perhaps the performance of "Ma Tiande" before barely left a positive impression in Nangong Hongzhao's heart.

Nangong Hongzhao suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Li Fan lightly.

Then he said nothing and continued to close his eyes.

Li Fan knew that since he did not explicitly refuse, it meant that he agreed.

Then he asked again in a voice transmission: "How did the fake coffin suddenly turn into a real one? Brother Nangong, do you know anything about it?"

Nangong Hongzhao said unhappily: "Didn't you see that I was treated like garbage and swept away 180,000 miles away. What can I know about it?"

Li Fan quickly consoled him: "Brother Nangong, don't say that. That's Elder Nangong of the Council. Many people want to be swept away like this, but they don't have the qualifications."

Nangong Hongzhao opened his eyes again after hearing this.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at her again, thinking: "I almost forgot that you were originally a Taoist network operator, and you were also from the self-governing council. No wonder you know how powerful my third uncle is."

Li Fan nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right."

Seeing that Nangong Hongzhao's attitude gradually softened, Li Fan quickly got straight to the point: "These days, I have nothing to do, and I have been thinking about it. There are several possibilities about this fake coffin."

"One is that the fake coffin is a replica of the real coffin. Except for some necessary conditions, it is no different from the real coffin for crossing the world. And the two immortals Xiyi who came from the sea of ​​stars are just Well, he has mastered the necessary conditions. Therefore, it is natural to use the mysterious coffin to escape to other worlds. "

"But this guess does not make sense. It is just used as bait to trap the real immortals. It is enough to make it look like it, and it does not need to be so real. Therefore, I guess that Yan Xuantai secretly did something, or used a trick to replace the fake coffin with another one that is closer to the real coffin. And he hid in it, waiting for the two immortals Xiyi to enter, and then told them the whole story. Then he escaped with them. "

"But..." Li Fan paused.

"I don't know who this Yan Xuantai is. He was sent to secretly monitor and protect the new Immortal Hunter's first hunt. His identity and status should not be much higher than such a small matter. But he actually mastered it. With such a treasure?"

"Moreover, there is that black colorful spike that can deceive the Taoist network. I can't guess what I'm thinking!" Li Fan sighed.

"Seeing that we may be locked up here and never get ahead, brother Nangong, can you help me clarify my doubts? Don't worry, I will never tell anyone." Li Fan vowed.

After a long silence, Nangong Hongzhao's subtle voice came: "Your thoughts are quite careful. Some of them coincide with what I guessed. It's just that I know some inside stories that you don't know."

"It's not a secret. It's okay to tell you. That Yan Xuantai originally joined the Immortal Hunter as a member of the [Saint Shang]. A hundred years ago, the entire Saint Shang suddenly disappeared from the Shuo Xing Sea. Only the remaining Some remnants, abandoned children.”

"I thought that he had already settled the dispute with Shengshang. But I never thought..." Nangong Hongzhao snorted coldly,

"Speaking of which, Holy Shang was one of the founders of Immortal Hunting. And many of the techniques for catching immortals were actively provided by them. Moreover, members of Holy Shang do not like fighting or power. They only aim at catching immortals, so In the original Xian Shou organization, Yan Xuantai, as the abandoned son of Saint Shang, was not overly difficult and was even assigned an important position after he left without saying goodbye. "

After Li Fan heard the word [Saint Shang], his heart moved slightly.

He continued to ask: "According to what you said, Brother Nangong, the Holy Merchant was already a hundred years ago. In a hundred years, our Taoist net technique has improved a lot. Even though Yan Xuantai is a Holy Merchant, he is actually able to deceive Is it possible that the Dao Network is so far ahead of us? Or..."

Li Fan seemed to realize something and suddenly lowered his voice: "Could it be that Yan Xuantai secretly reconnected with the holy merchant recently and found a way to escape?"

"But, this doesn't make sense. Unless, the fake coffin is not escaping to other worlds, but to another star sea. Where is the Saint Merchant?"

Nangong Hongzhao shook his head slightly: "This is not something I can know. The matter is complicated and confusing. Yan Xuantai is withdrawn by nature and often acts alone. It is somewhat difficult to investigate."

"But don't worry. We will never be imprisoned until death. We will be released when the general result of the matter is reached." Nangong Hongzhao comforted him kindly.
