Chapter 1238: Demon Tuo Mountain

"Old Monster Che really intends to enter the spatial node recently?" Old Monster Feng was clearly hearing this for the first time and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Correct. But this so-called 'soon' will likely take a hundred or two hundred years of preparation. After all, only heaven knows how great the danger of entering a spatial node is." Xiang Xiang Zhili said solemnly.

"So, Old Monster Che's lifespan is also nearing its end. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so impatient and stop searching carefully for a more suitable node." After a long while, the horse-faced old man let out a long sigh.

"Old Monster Che refuses to speak in detail, but it is ten-to-nine that this is the case. Otherwise, with the old demon's shrewd personality, how could he be so impatient? Actually, it is not just Old Monster Che; the lifespan limits of us few are also matters of these next few hundred years." Xiang Xiang Zhili's expression turned gloomy.

"Fellow Daoist Han, we have said so much; what have you considered?" Old Monster Feng's expression was also not very good, but he suddenly asked Han Li.

"What Senior Martial Brother Xiang said indeed makes great sense, and Han Mou truly does not have much time to search for spatial nodes personally. I can hand over the information to you fellow daoists, but there is one condition: if a suitable spatial node is truly found, I hope you fellow daoists can notify me in time so that I can come over to check it out and make preparations in advance. I do not wish for you fellow daoists to hide anything from me." Han Li replied indifferently and lightly.

"I thought it was some condition. Even if Junior Martial Brother Han didn't say this, we would have done so. Perhaps we few will even enter the spatial node together to support each other." Xiang Xiang Zhili revealed a look of joy upon hearing this, feeling somewhat satisfied that Han Li hadn't made an exorbitant demand.

Han Li nodded, raised a hand, and a white light shot toward Xiang Xiang Zhili. It was precisely an ordinary white jade slip.

Xiang Xiang Zhili's eyes brightened, he grabbed the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and revealed a look of joy.

"Not bad, not bad. Not only is there a lot of spatial node information inside, but there is actually the method for setting up the reverse transmission array. If we can crack this array, we might have other gains. Junior Martial Brother Han is so generous; we naturally will never break our word. Here are two Ten-Thousand-Mile Talismans; Junior Martial Brother, keep them for now. Once a spatial node is found, I will immediately send a message." Xiang Xiang Zhili, happy in his heart, took out two jade talismans from his sleeves and threw them over.

Han Li caught them with his hand, flipped his palm, and put them away.

Old Monster Feng had been watching Han Li's actions, and seeing Han Li hand over the jade slip, the coldness on his face also eased.

"By the way, Junior Martial Brother Han, there is one more thing I must tell you. With your current divine abilities, ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators are far from being your match, so the original restrictions between us Spirit Transformation cultivators will likely apply to Junior Martial Brother Han as well. Junior Martial Brother should pay more attention in the future; let the Ghost Spirit Sect matter be the only time." Xiang Xiang Zhili also remembered something after putting away the jade slip and hurriedly urged him.

"Restrictions?" Han Li's expression stirred.

"Actually, it is nothing much; it is just that the divine abilities of Spirit Transformation cultivators are truly too great. If any one of them acts wantonly, it might disrupt the order of the mortal world. So, a long time ago, all Spirit Transformation cultivators in the mortal world established a common rule: once one reaches the Spirit Transformation stage, not only is fighting among ourselves forbidden, but participating in all affairs of the cultivation world is strictly prohibited. This time, you killed so many Nascent Soul cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect in one breath, including a Great Cultivator, which has already caused some unnecessary chaos in the Great Jin. But firstly, you were unaware of this taboo, and secondly, you are not yet a Spirit Transformation cultivator, so this time it naturally counts for nothing. But now, Brother Feng and I have confirmed your divine abilities; although you are not yet a match for a Spirit Transformation cultivator, you have the strength to fight one. In that case, as long as you send a message to me and other fellow daoists, you must not act wantonly in the future, at least not to the extent of killing so many Nascent Soul cultivators at once and interfering with the rise and fall of a sect. Of course, this restriction is mutual; from now on, other Spirit Transformation cultivators will not attack you at will either." Xiang Xiang Zhili said with a smile.

Han Li was stunned for a while upon hearing this, but then burst into laughter.

"Actually, it is not necessary; I have always been uninterested in sect affairs. As for the Ghost Spirit Sect matter, it was those sect cultivators who went to the Heavenly South to deal with Han Mou first. I was merely retaliating slightly. Such things will not happen again." Han Li explained the chaos.

"The Ghost Spirit Sect matter is in the past. It is best if Junior Martial Brother Han can think this way. By the way, are there any important matters recently? If not, how about accompanying Brother Feng and me to Demon Tuo Mountain? I will take the opportunity to introduce Brother Hu to you. Fellow Daoist Hu intends to take several female Nascent Soul cultivators as concubines recently and even sent me an invitation. Brother Feng, you should have received one too, right?" Xiang Xiang Zhili changed the subject and suddenly said this.

"Naturally, I received one. Otherwise, why would I appear here? I heard that the three concubines he intends to take this time not only each have early-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, but are all peerless beauties. He is very fond of them. But having said that, including this time, we have already been to Demon Tuo Mountain five or six times because Old Demon Hu is taking concubines. This old demon is truly capable of causing trouble. His Demon Palace is already filled with peerless beauties sent by his demon descendants; what is the point of taking more concubines?" Old Monster Feng frowned and said helplessly.

"Haha, Brother Feng, you know. Old Demon Hu is fond of women because of the cultivation technique he practices. But once he truly encounters a woman he fancies, he will be extremely solemn and never easily take the other party's virginity. Instead, he will solemnly invite some close friends to hold a concubine-taking ceremony to give the other party a formal status. The old demon has no formal dual-cultivation partner, so these named concubines are very different from those ordinary maids. He dotes on every single one of them!" Xiang Xiang Zhili laughed.

"Hmph, who cares if he takes concubines or not. It is just that every time I am invited, I have to bleed once. This makes me feel somewhat unhappy. This old demon is extremely concerned with face; if I were truly invited and didn't go, I would likely offend him. It just so happens that this old demon's standards are not ordinary; he can't even look at ordinary treasures." Old Monster Feng appeared extremely depressed.

"That is because you and I both covet the few spiritual medicines of his Demon Tuo Mountain. If Brother Feng were like Fellow Daoist Bai, who seeks nothing, then going or not going would naturally be irrelevant." Xiang Xiang Zhili smiled nonchalantly, seemingly unconcerned about being invited.

"The two of you are talking about that fellow daoist of the Heavenly Demon Sect, right? I have not been invited; it would be somewhat inappropriate to go rashly. Moreover, I have not prepared any suitable congratulatory gifts." Han Li hesitated.

"Junior Martial Brother Han, no need to worry! If I, Xiang, bring a guest to Demon Tuo Mountain, what could that Old Demon Hu say? Moreover, if we truly find a suitable spatial node according to the information in the jade slip, the old demon should be extremely grateful. As for the congratulatory gift, just take out one or two ancient treasures to deal with it. You are not very familiar with the old demon, so a gift that is too heavy would be bad. On the contrary, this trip to Demon Tuo Mountain is an opportunity for Junior Martial Brother. The Demon Tuo Mountain's unique spiritual medicine, the 'Demon-Refining Heaven Origin Pill', is helpful for breaking through to the Spirit Transformation stage. This medicine can only be refined using Demon Tuo Mountain's spiritual medicine. It cannot be found anywhere else. If Junior Martial Brother Han can take the opportunity to ask for one or two, breaking through to the Spirit Transformation stage and sensing the heaven and earth spiritual energy will be much easier." Xiang Xiang Zhili said with deep meaning.

"Demon-Refining Heaven Origin Pill! Could it be the 'Demon Origin Pill' that was lost since ancient times?" Han Li was startled upon hearing the name of the spiritual pill.

"Correct, it is this pill. To think Junior Martial Brother Han also knows of this spiritual pill. In that case, I don't need to waste my breath. Does Junior Martial Brother Han intend to make this trip?" Seeing that Han Li also knew the origin of the spiritual pill, Xiang Xiang Zhili was somewhat surprised, but asked with a smile.

Han Li's expression was uncertain, and he hesitated.

The Mist Moon Mountain Range is located in the northwest of the Great Jin, at the border of two prefectures, stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles. In this mountain range, there are countless dangerous peaks, and the largest one is tens of thousands of feet high, with its upper half covered in white, year-round, unmelted snow.

At the top of this mountain, there is a large flat area spanning tens of miles, where a huge palace complex has been built. There are countless pavilions and terraces, all of which are exquisitely beautiful and made of precious wood or rare jade.

Moreover, the entire mountaintop is protected by some large-scale restriction. Outside the restriction, the cold wind howls and it is a world of ice and snow, but inside the restriction, it is spring all year round, with countless exotic flowers and spiritual trees. Among these palaces and pavilions, there are some graceful and beautiful women wearing colorful palace dresses playing and frolicking, and from time to time, silver-bell-like laughter can be heard, making people feel intoxicated.

This place is like a paradise on earth!

This is the Demon Tuo Mountain, which very few people in the Great Jin cultivation world know about, and these buildings on the mountain also have a name that shocks people: "Demon Palace".

The master of the Demon Palace is one of the few remaining Spirit Transformation cultivators in the Great Jin, and also the hidden residence of the Heavenly Demon Sect's Supreme Elder, "Hu Qinglei".

This great demon cultivator, who once shook the entire Great Jin over a thousand years ago and personally led the Heavenly Demon Sect to become a major demon sect, is now hosting a banquet in the largest hall of the Demon Palace to entertain a group of distinguished guests.

The number of these distinguished guests is not too many, only seven or eight, but they are sitting on both sides.

In the middle of the hall, there are dozens of graceful and beautiful women in palace dresses, dancing with flowing eyes.

The entire hall is filled with spring!

On the main seat of the hall, an old man with a wooden crown and a sickly look is leaning against the back of the chair, his eyes slightly closed, looking comfortable and leisurely.
