161: Chapter 161 Stop acting, your tricks have been seen through.

The blood-colored Qi gradually dispersed.

Qin Tian and the others passed through the mountain of corpses and finally arrived at an Immortal Cave surrounded by Immortal light.

The mansion was filled with shimmering treasure light, mysterious and unpredictable; anyone could see that there was a great Opportunity inside!

Mei Nianjiao's eyes suddenly lit up. "It's here!"

"This must be the treasure trove of the Immortal Long Yan!"

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you brought me here, and I believe in repaying kindness. You all take the items inside first; I only want what you do not desire."

The corners of Qin Tian's lips curled up. "Then, I thank Fellow Daoist Mei."

As his voice fell, Qin Tian took Han Qing and stepped into the Immortal Cave along with the two Heavenly Lords.

A hint of nervousness and anticipation flashed in Mei Nianjiao's eyes.

She didn't let out a heavy sigh of relief until she could no longer sense Qin Tian's presence at all.

"Finally, they've entered..."

Her voice trailed off.

The cautiousness in Mei Nianjiao's eyes completely vanished.

It was replaced by the confidence of having everything under control, along with threads of crimson malevolence!

"Qin Tian, heh, quite an interesting little fellow."

"Unfortunately, he's still too green and lacks experience. He's about to die..."

Streaks of blood Qi surged from beneath Mei Nianjiao's feet.

In the next moment, the Immortal Cave that was originally surrounded by treasure light and filled with Immortal Qi transformed into a Blood Cavern where blood-red baleful energy gathered and hostile Qi was everywhere...

"This is a Blood Sacrifice Array. No matter how great your abilities are, you won't be coming out!"

"Once I've sucked your blood and Qi dry, I'll go deal with those other fellows!"

Crimson Qi condensed on Mei Nianjiao's fingertips as she reached into the Blood Cavern...

However.

The next moment.

Her expression changed.

"The Blood Cavern... is empty...?"

"This... how is this possible...?"

"I clearly..."

"You clearly saw us walk in, right?" A familiar voice rang out from nowhere.

Mei Nianjiao's body froze on the spot.

"Qin... Tian!"

"How can this be...!?"

The Void Realm fluctuated.

Qin Tian stepped out slowly, his expression calm as he gazed indifferently at Mei Nianjiao.

Beside him, Gu Yue Hu Rong and Gu Yue Guang Xu also appeared, bringing Han Qing with them.

Mei Nianjiao looked ahead with a face full of disbelief.

"You, when did you find out...?"

Qin Tian said indifferently, "You actually disguised yourself very well. Before just now, I only suspected you, I wasn't certain."

"But when you brought us to this Blood Cavern, suspicion turned into certainty."

Mei Nianjiao's gaze was suspicious. "I have been cautious and careful throughout; I believed there were no flaws. Where exactly did things go wrong?"

Qin Tian smiled. "You aren't Mei Nianjiao, are you?"

Hiss—!!

Mei Nianjiao immediately sucked in a breath of cold air!

"No, I should say the body is Mei Nianjiao's, but it has been taken over via Possession, controlled, or something else..."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only was Mei Nianjiao stunned, but even the two Heavenly Lords were taken aback.

Their Divine Thoughts swept over her, but they couldn't see any signs of Possession on Mei Nianjiao at all.

Mei Nianjiao looked wary and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Qin Tian ignored her and continued, "Let me guess what happened."

"Mei Nianjiao of the Ziqi Immortal Mansion accidentally obtained that Purple-Gold Ancient Seal and came to this so-called Immortal Treasure Trove to seek Opportunity. Unfortunately, she was controlled by you, and you took her body."

"Afterward, you could briefly leave this Immortal Treasure Trove, so you began looking for your next target."

"I guess this is your usual method: using Opportunities to lure Cultivators here to carry out your blood sacrifice and consumption."

"You found The Burial Sword Four, intentionally revealed the ancient seal to lure them into chasing you, then pretended to be defeated and killed, dropping the ancient seal. Thus, The Burial Sword Four would naturally come here for you to consume..."

"However, I accidentally intervened, so you turned your target toward me. To that end, you deliberately acted timid and weak, handing over the ancient seal to lure me here..."

Mei Nianjiao's face gradually darkened.

She didn't deny Qin Tian's words in the slightest.

At this point, denial was meaningless.

"You still haven't told me, how exactly did you find out?"

Qin Tian's lips moved slightly. "It's very simple."

"I met Fellow Daoist Mei in the Great Qian Dynasty. she has a conspicuous yet easily overlooked habit."

"A habit?"

"Fellow Daoist Mei loves to drink; her wine never leaves her side. She'll have a cup after saying just a few words... but you haven't had a single drink until now. You don't even have wine vessels on you..."

Mei Nianjiao froze on the spot. "Just because of that?"

She never imagined that even though she had searched this body's memories and perfected her speech and mannerisms, she would be exposed because of a cup of wine.

"It's just drinking; what does that prove? You only met once in the Great Qian Dynasty, and you're so certain?"

Qin Tian shook his head. "I said, it was just a suspicion. This was only a minor point of doubt."

"I truly became guarded at the entrance to the Immortal Treasure Trove. For the treasure trove of a generation's Immortal Lord to have no Restrictions at all was a bit too simple..."

"Furthermore, the commotion was too loud, as if it was desperate for everyone to come and find the treasure. It was too abnormal..."

"Also, after entering, there were no obstacles, and we didn't even encounter a single crisis. It was far too smooth..."

Mei Nianjiao looked deeply at Qin Tian and sighed. "You aren't very old, but your mind is sharper than some of those old fellows."

Qin Tian smiled. "I'm just a bit afraid of dying, so I'm exceptionally careful."

"Hahaha!"

"You clearly found something was wrong, yet you still followed me here. Afraid of dying? Do you think I'll believe that?" Mei Nianjiao stopped hiding, and the Qi on her body surged.

"Two Heavenly Lords, one Reflecting Nine Heavens, and one Peak of Guixu. You think you can deal with me with just this bit of combat power? You're daydreaming!"

Qin Tian sized Mei Nianjiao up and spoke slowly.

"Don't misunderstand; I have no intention of fighting you."

"Hmm?"

Mei Nianjiao was stunned. "What did you say?"

Qin Tian smiled. "Fellow Daoist Mei, you just asked me why I came in even though I knew it was a trap."

"Actually."

"I came to seek cooperation with you."

Mei Nianjiao's Qi stagnated.

"Cooperation?"

"That's right." Qin Tian stepped forward, slowly stopping by Mei Nianjiao's side. "The commotion from the opening of the Immortal Treasure Trove has drawn people from the entire Shenji Domain."

"The blood food you want is inexhaustible."

"Moreover, if nothing goes wrong, there should also be Heavenly Lords from the Ancient Realm of Longevity!"

"Don't tell me you don't want their blood Qi?"

Buzz!!

The blood Qi on Mei Nianjiao's body churned as she scrutinized Qin Tian carefully for a long time.

"You have too many schemes."

"I don't trust you."

Qin Tian smiled slightly. "Whether you believe me or not isn't important."

Mei Nianjiao: "?"

The next moment.

A terrifying grand array spread out from beneath Qin Tian's feet, instantly enveloping Mei Nianjiao.

Mei Nianjiao's chest felt tight, and the Qi on her body suddenly plummeted!

She was forcibly suppressed to the Reflecting Nine Heavens level!

And in her eyes, Qin Tian's aura became incredibly terrifying!

Qin Tian looked up and said indifferently:

"I said I was looking for cooperation."

"I wasn't negotiating with you."

"You only have two choices."

"Agree!"

"Or, die!"
