Chapter 546: Root (1)

A force in Jiang Li’s body spontaneously activated, and five mountains that were like sharp swords were reflected in his eyes.

The two sides looked at each other, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment. At this moment, the darkness outside the small building seemed to become even denser.

However, on her face, the completely flipped facial features made it impossible to see her expression.

One of the eyes on her chin seemed to say, “You just noticed?”

The two raised mouths on her forehead seemed to be saying, “You actually saw through me!”

It was impolite to directly ask about it.

However, Jiang Li was not nervous as he looked at the old woman in front of him.

Firstly, the Back Yin Mountain was an ancient immortal mountain that even ancient Golden Immortals could not easily refine. Before the Earth Spirit successfully refined their mountain body, their combat strength was quite limited.

...

Secondly, Jiang Li did not sense any hostility from the other party.

“Sigh, Young Master still saw through me.”

“Young Master, I’m not afraid of being laughed at. I’m indeed the Earth Spirit.”

After a moment of silence, the old woman shook her head and accepted Jiang Li’s guess.

It was no wonder that Jiang Li had sensed a familiar power when he used Shanting’s ears to investigate earlier. Now that he thought about it, wasn’t it the earth vein?

This old woman with inverted facial features was not a demon, but the spirit of the Yin Mountain.

This Back Yin Mountain separated Yin and Yang and even had a powerful domain effect. It was the strongest mountain range Jiang Li had seen so far.

Even the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak could produce an earth spirit, so what was so strange about the Back Yin Mountain?

Previously, the other party had used a special method to conceal her aura, causing Jiang Li to only feel that it was slightly familiar. It was not until he saw the Earth Vein Heart that he suddenly came to a realization.

However, since Jiang Li had already exposed the other party, the old woman no longer hid anything. After sizing Jiang Li up a few times, she similarly spoke, “May I ask which immortal mountain Young Master comes from? You can actually cultivate a human body and obtain a free body. I’m so envious.”

Jiang Li revealed a shocked expression, but he was slightly speechless in his heart.

The other party clearly recognized him as the Earth Spirit.

Jiang Li could sense the earth vein power in the other party’s body with his Earth Spirit Body.

The feeling the other party gave Jiang Li was probably similar.

It was even very likely that when he had just stepped into the Back Yin Mountain, this Earth Spirit Granny had already sensed the power of the Earth Spirit Body and the earth vein in his body.

Because of this, she treated Jiang Li as one of her kind, and then she specially waited on the path he had to pass through, creating such a scene of marrying off her daughter from the deep mountains.

Such a grand show of goodwill naturally had other motives.

If it was not for Jiang Li, if it was any other ordinary cultivator, the Earth Spirit would probably not have been so polite.

“I come from the Five Elements Sword Peak. I only have some Five Elements Sword Qi. It’s not an immortal mountain, and it can’t compare to Senior’s Back Yin Mountain.”

“This human body was also obtained by chance. Unless there’s no other choice, which Earth Spirit would be willing to abandon its mountain?”

Jiang Li did not deny it.

If he told the truth and said that he had the power of the Earth Spirit because he had imprisoned a Earth Spirit in his body, the two sides might fight in the next moment.

He put himself into the perspective of the Earth Spirit of the Five Elements Peak and spoke a few words. Sure enough, he resonated with the other party.

The old woman pulled him back to the guest room and sighed at the lights, complaining about the injustice of heaven and earth.

Clearly, the other party was not doing very well in her territory.

“That thing just now was Senior’s Earth Vein Heart, right? If you rashly move the core, your vitality will be greatly damaged. Senior, you…”

“Could it be because of Granny Nether Mountain?”

Jiang Li chatted with the other party for a long time. After talking about how it felt to be a free Earth Spirit, he went back to the subject at hand.

At the mention of that name, the Earth Spirit’s inverted eye on her chin suddenly emitted a terrifying ferocious light.

It made the surrounding air turn cold.

After being angry for a long time, she could only sigh helplessly.

“Sigh, my fate is not good. I was clearly the spirit of this earth vein, but most of my body was snatched away by an outsider.”

“If I don’t escape now, my final bit of self will probably disappear. I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Young Master.”

In fact, since ancient times, not many Earth Spirits and local forces could get along harmoniously.

After all, they occupied the mountain for the sake of the dense spiritual qi, strong earth veins, and abundant resources here.

The main principle of any sect array above the passable level was to seize and use the power of the local earth vein.

To the Earth Spirit, that was basically no different from sucking its marrow.

The true Earth Spirit of the Five Elements Mountain sealed in the ninth level of the Demon Tower was a typical example.

With the current situation, how could the Earth Spirit have a good relationship with the local forces?

As for the Earth Spirit, it lived in seclusion all year round. Although it had immense strength, it could not be used and was not good at fighting. It would always be defeated.

Those who were lucky were only sealed and could curse in the darkness.

Many of the unlucky ones who encountered those with methods had their consciousness erased.

“Since Young Master has already discovered my identity, I won’t hide it anymore.”
