Chapter 1694: Cultivating Armor

Seeing this scene on the side, the Ginseng Immortal's expression was unusually gentle. It suddenly stepped forward and grabbed toward the white rabbit in the void with one hand.

A sheet of purple light flew out from its hand, rolling up the white rabbit along with the blocky root on the ground and capturing it in front of it.

The white rabbit was still eating steadily in the light, as if it didn't feel anything was wrong.

The Ginseng Immortal stared at the white rabbit for a while, and with a flash of strange light in its eyes, it couldn't help but reach out to touch the rabbit in the light.

But before its fingers could truly touch the white rabbit's furry body, the rabbit flashed with spiritual light and suddenly transformed into a series of afterimages, disappearing into thin air.

The next moment, the white rabbit appeared on the ground again. But it stood on its hind legs, its snow-white long hair puffed up, and it kept baring its teeth at the Ginseng Immortal.

Clearly, the Ginseng Immortal's previous action had greatly annoyed this spirit item.

Seeing this, the Ginseng Immortal smiled, its aura changed, and at the same time, the purple light on its body transformed into an emerald green color.

A thick wood spiritual energy emitted from its body.

The originally baring-teeth-and-claws white rabbit was stunned upon touching this spiritual energy. After sniffing with its pink nose twice, its expression eased greatly, and even its gaze toward the Ginseng Immortal became several parts more intimate.

"Little guy, come over," the Ginseng Immortal clapped its hands and beckoned to the white rabbit with one hand.

The white rabbit seemed to really understand the Ginseng Immortal's words. After a moment of hesitation, it kicked its legs and actually jumped into its arms.

The Ginseng Immortal was overjoyed, extending its palm to carefully stroke the white rabbit's head, appearing extremely happy.

The white rabbit narrowed its eyes, revealing an appearance of enjoyment, and extended its small, tender red tongue to lick the Ginseng Immortal's fingers.

"Good, good, it seems the opening of its spirituality is not far off. Fellow Daoist Han, since this counterpart can move so freely in your medicine garden, it's clear you treat it quite well. In that case, I have no objection to letting it open its spirituality further and teaching it some things, right?" The Ginseng Immortal stroked the white rabbit in its arms while speaking solemnly to Han Li.

"Help it open its spirituality?" Han Li was slightly surprised, revealing a look of contemplation.

"Not bad. I am a spirit medicine that has become a spirit, and the divine abilities and techniques I have comprehended can only be inherited and cultivated by counterparts. It can also avoid taking many detours in the future. If this object can also transform into human form like me, I imagine it will be no small help to you in the future," the Ginseng Immortal said slowly with a flicker in its eyes.

"It's not that it's impossible, but no matter what you do to it, you must let my puppet watch with its own eyes, and from now on, this puppet will also follow you every step of the way," Han Li stared at the Ginseng Immortal for a good while before finally nodding, but also putting forward his own conditions.

"No problem at all. There is nothing secret about what I do," the Ginseng Immortal revealed a look of satisfaction.

"Then there is no problem. During this year, fellow Daoist should rest quietly in this place. If there is anything, you can tell this puppet of mine."

After Han Li finished speaking, he beckoned behind him.

Instantly, "Doll" behind him stepped forward and walked to the side.

"From today on, you will follow fellow Daoist Ginseng Immortal, and do not leave for a moment," Han Li ordered solemnly.

Although this psychic puppet's spirituality was not high, she naturally understood some simple orders.

Doll's eyes flickered, and she nodded expressionlessly.

Seeing this, the Ginseng Immortal gave a faint laugh, shook its wrist, and with a roll of purple light, sent the white rabbit in its arms steadily to the ground.

It shook its figure and appeared several zhang away from the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng. With its two feet apart, its body flashed with emerald light, and its four limbs transformed into pale purple tentacles, drilling straight into the ground.

At this time, the Ginseng Immortal's body also became emerald green, emitting emerald, crystal-clear light...

Han Li stood in place, waiting until the zhang-tall purple giant ginseng appeared in front of him and all its roots had penetrated deep into the ground, before smiling slightly and turning to leave the medicine garden.

Although he was greatly curious about the mysterious use of this Ginseng Immortal, he had to go out for a trip right now.

The day he and Xian Xian had agreed upon for the repair of the Heavenly Outer Demon Armor had almost arrived.

He was also greatly expectant of this demon armor.

However, for the sake of caution, when Han Li went out, he left the Leopard-Scaled Beast and his Second Primordial Spirit in the cave dwelling, and opened all the barriers in the cave dwelling before leaving with peace of mind.

Several hours later, he appeared in front of the crystal race woman's shop in a beast carriage.

The shop was still closed, appearing as if it were not open for business.

Han Li did not stand on ceremony, raising one hand, and fire appeared in his sleeve. Instantly, a streak of fire flew out, flashing and vanishing into the door without a trace.

Then he waited quietly outside the door.

A moment later, the door opened with a "gaji" sound, and the crystal race woman's soft voice came from within:

"Fellow Daoist Han is truly trustworthy. The half-month period has just arrived, and you have come knocking."

"I am also anxious to repair the demon armor, so I was a bit impatient. I hope the Fairy will not blame me!" Han Li laughed, raised his leg, and walked over.

And the door shook, closing on its own.

In the middle of the shop, a gentle and pretty woman was smiling at Han Li.

It was precisely Xian Xian.

Seeing Han Li walk over, the woman pursed her lips and said nothing more, pinching a magic technique with one hand, instantly activating the teleportation array.

Seeing the light flash, Han Li and the woman disappeared from the shop together, being directly teleported to the space crack of the crystal race woman.

As soon as Han Li walked out of the array under his feet, his gaze scanned and immediately stopped at a corner of the space.

There, a large magic array, ten or so zhang in diameter, had been set up, pitch black like ink, with more than a dozen black crystals of the same color embedded around it.

At the center of the array, there was another cyan copper tripod, half a zhang tall, with complex inscriptions on its surface, emitting faint white mist.

And in the air several feet above the copper tripod, another object was wrapped in thin white mist, the size of a fist, emitting dazzling black light, hovering there motionless.

Seeing this scene, Han Li couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Although the object on the copper tripod had changed slightly in appearance, the cold demonic Qi it emitted had not changed at all; it was shockingly the Saint Stage Demon Core of that Demon Ape.

But at this moment, the demon core had thoroughly crystallized, as bright as a piece of black crystal.

"What does fellow Daoist think? I haven't been idle these days either, spending a great deal of effort and investing many rare materials to thoroughly erase the traces of that Saint Stage Demon Ape in the demon core, and making the demonic Qi contained within less violent and difficult to control," the crystal race woman said with a smile after walking out of the teleportation array.

"Oh, so Fairy Xian does not intend to embed the demon core into the demon armor as a whole, but is preparing to thoroughly refine it," Han Li touched his chin and asked.

"I didn't expect fellow Daoist to also be proficient in artifact refining. Not bad, I did intend to do so. Embedding the demon core into the demon armor as a whole could indeed repair the largest cracks, but other small places could not be taken care of. Fellow Daoist wouldn't want to leave any opportunities for opponents when encountering enemies with this demon armor, right?" The crystal race woman was slightly surprised, but explained with a smile.

"I am only roughly proficient in artifact refining. Fellow Daoist, just do as you intend. I still have great confidence in the artifact refining techniques of the crystal race," Han Li said with a smile.

"When repairing the demon armor in a moment, I will open the barriers of this space, and I might need fellow Daoist to help me. I estimate that if everything goes smoothly, the repair process can be completed in about three days," hearing Han Li's humble appearance, Xian Xian smiled sweetly and did not pursue the matter, instead explaining to Han Li in a half-explanatory tone.

"Three days is not long. And repairing my own treasure, it is naturally my duty to contribute," Han Li had no objections at all.

"Since fellow Daoist has no objections, let's start immediately."

Xian Xian seemed not to want to waste any more words, immediately raising her slender jade hand, and a magic disk flew into the air from her hand, spinning in circles above her head.

Light flashed, and streaks of five-colored magic techniques flew out, flashing and vanishing into the space without a trace.

The next moment, a violent wind roared above the entire space, and a sheet of pitch-black clouds surged out. At the same time, the four walls of the space groaned, and layers of gray Qi emerged.

The entire space became pitch black, and one could not see one's fingers, as if falling into a demonic domain.

Seeing this, Han Li's gaze flashed, and he shook his sleeve, a white light ball the size of a chicken egg flying out, circling around him.

This made the vicinity much brighter.

And at this time, Xian Xian had already moved her graceful body, walking to the edge of the magic array.

Seeing this, Han Li did not speak, but his figure moved.

It seemed like only two slow steps, but he appeared behind the crystal race woman, as if teleporting.

Xian Xian seemed unaware of this, only raising her hand and casting a magic technique toward the magic array in front of her.

Instantly, a low humming sound rang out, and then, amidst the swirling pitch-black light, the entire magic array was activated.

Han Li's expression moved.

He had not yet seen the magical use of this magic array, but the array of demonic Qi emitted from the magic array was truly pure enough. He didn't know where the other party had collected so much demonic Qi.

And just at this moment, Xian Xian suddenly chanted incantations, and then cyan light flared on her body, and a several-zhang-large cyan Qilin phantom emerged behind her.

The Qilin phantom was motionless at first, but as the crystal race woman's incantations gradually became urgent, it finally opened its mouth slowly, and a fire ball the size of a head was sprayed out.

This fire ball was bizarre, actually containing both black and cyan colors, flashing and vanishing to strike the copper tripod at the center of the array.

With a "puchi" sound, a layer of black and cyan flames emerged on the surface of the copper tripod, burning fiercely.
