Chapter 1762

After a 'Bang', the golden light exploded, and silver runes sprayed out from the disk, shooting toward various parts of the mountain peak.

As the silver light flashed, the runes vanished into the mountain rocks, and then began to shuttle back and forth within the mountain belly.

Han Li floated quietly in the air, expressionless, and made no further moves.

After a cup of tea's time, the disk in the void below suddenly let out a hum, and then golden light shone brightly.

Seeing this, Han Li's eyebrows jumped, and he beckoned toward the ground below with one hand.

The disk trembled and shot toward the high sky, and after a flash, it eerily appeared in his palm.

Han Li lowered his head and took a look.

A ball of dazzling light appeared on the surface of the disk.

The corner of his mouth twitched, yellow light flashed on his body, and he immediately shot toward the mountain peak below.

Silent and soundless, he vanished into the mountain peak, moving through the mountain belly at an incredible speed.

After just a short while, his eyes lit up, and a huge kiln cave eerily appeared below.

A silver ball of light the size of a head hovered in the middle of the kiln cave, motionless.

It was precisely formed by the silver runes that had flown out from the disk earlier.

The escape light faded, and Han Li appeared inside the kiln cave. He scanned the surroundings quickly and immediately discovered several winding passages connected to this place.

His expression stirred, and he walked toward one of the passages with large strides.

The passage was pitch black, almost impossible to see one's own fingers.

But Han Li waved his hand, and several milky-white crystals flew out from his sleeve, circling above his head without falling.

In this way, the passage naturally became as bright as day.

Han Li only walked a short distance before releasing his divine sense to scan the pitted stone walls all around.

As a result, after a moment, his footsteps paused, and he opened his mouth again.

A green light was sprayed out, and after a flash, it hit the stone wall.

Under the sharp sword light, the stone wall was cut open like tofu. In the blink of an eye, a stone hole with a diameter of a foot appeared on the stone wall.

A strange 'Clang' sound eerily came from the black hole, sounding exceptionally clear in the narrow passage.

Hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Han Li's face.

He pinched a spell with one hand and pointed at the void in the hole.

With a 'Whoosh', a small green sword shot back from inside, and a black-purple unknown ore was pierced on the sword body.

"It really is this place. The reserves are actually quite large; if I want to take it all away, I'm afraid it will take a few more days." Han Li raised his hand to collect the flying sword, grabbed the ore, took two looks at it, and muttered to himself.

He naturally wouldn't stay here to be a miner himself. With a flick of his hand toward his storage bracelet, several balls of spiritual light flew out, and several puppets of various shapes appeared in front of him.

These puppets were all refined by him in the mortal world; although their rank was extremely low, they were more than enough to be a coolie miner.

Han Li patted his head again, releasing his second Nascent Soul to stay in the cave and be responsible for the puppets' activities, while he himself used the Earth Escape Technique to reach the mountain top.

At this time, Qu'er also flew over from the lake surface with tens of thousands of Flying Rainbow Fish demon cores and handed the storage bracelet containing the demon cores to Han Li.

After checking it, he was very satisfied, praised her a few times, and carefully put away the storage bracelet.

"Master, Qu'er senses that there seem to be quite a few spiritual herbs on this island; let the servant go and pick them." Qu'er hesitated for a moment before suddenly saying this to Han Li.

"Spiritual herbs? You are a body of heaven and earth spiritual objects yourself; if you have this sense, it's likely correct. Alright, there are no powerful fierce beasts here, and there is enough time. You go and search for them." Han Li was a bit surprised to hear this, but he didn't intend to stop her. After thinking about it, he nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, Master, then the servant will go." The young girl beamed with joy.

Then, white light flashed on her body, and she transformed into a ball of spiritual light and soared into the sky. After circling, she shot toward another lush green mountain peak nearby.

Han Li smiled, and immediately found a giant rock nearby and sat down cross-legged at will.

His sleeve flicked.

Over a dozen formation flags of various colors shot out, and after a few flashes, they vanished into the surrounding void without a trace.

With a 'Puff'.

A layer of five-colored light curtain appeared, covering the entire mountain top, but after a flash, it eerily vanished again.

Looking from the sky afar, this place seemed to be no different from before, but Han Li, who should have been sitting on the giant rock, had vanished without a trace.

After he set up the barrier, he felt relieved and pinched a spell with one hand. Golden light shone on his body, and a golden shadow emerged from behind him.

It was precisely the Brahma Saint Dharma Image.

He pointed at the image.

Immediately, purple runes flashed on the body of the three-headed, six-armed Dharma Image, and it transformed into a golden body, standing motionless in front of him.

Han Li narrowed his eyes, looking up and down at the golden body for a good while, before suddenly beckoning at it with one hand.

One of the golden body's three heads opened its mouth and actually sprayed out a ball of silver light, which vaguely wrapped around an object.

It was precisely the silver ruler he had collected after killing the golden-horned youth that day.

Although this treasure wasn't a Profound Heaven treasure, it had also shown extraordinary mysteriousness that day, and its power couldn't be underestimated; it was most likely a treasure of the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure rank.

He hadn't been sure in his heart, and only now did he have the leisure to take it out and identify it.

The silver ruler flashed and was taken into his hand.

Han Li brushed his fingers over the surface of the silver ruler while slowly closing his eyes, probing it with his divine sense.

His expression remained calm and waveless. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hunyuan Ruler. It's actually a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure. As long as I cultivate the Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula recorded inside, I can drive this treasure."

He whispered, and then green light flashed on the palm holding the silver ruler, injecting pure spiritual power into the treasure.

The next moment, the silver ruler let out a long, humming sound, and after a tremble, it sprayed out a silver light curtain from its surface.

In the light curtain, rows of ancient characters emerged neatly.

Han Li's eyes flickered, and he silently memorized the Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula of the "Hunyuan Ruler". With a flick of his wrist, the light curtain dispersed, and the treasure vanished with a flash.

Afterward, he put away the golden body, pinched a spell with both hands, and began to cultivate the Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula on the "Hunyuan Ruler".

Time passed quickly, and three days flashed by.

With Han Li's current peak Void Refinement cultivation, he naturally didn't need to cultivate for as long as he did for the Void Heaven Cauldron back then.

In just three short days, he completed the cultivation of this treasure's Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula and could now store this ruler in his body as he pleased.

And during this period, those puppets below had also excavated seven or eight out of ten of the unknown ores hidden in the mountain peak.

It was estimated that in another day's time, the task would be completed.

During this period, Qu'er, that little girl, had also collected quite a few herbs from the island, some of which were truly rare spiritual herbs in the Spirit Realm.

This was an unexpected joy.

However, after two consecutive days without any incidents, that girl Qu'er's courage grew quite a bit, and she began to search for some extremely secretively growing spiritual herbs at the bottom of the nearby lake.

Because Han Li was at a critical point in cultivating the Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula, he only gave her a few instructions via sound transmission and didn't say much else.

But of course, he naturally left a wisp of divine sense on the young girl to prevent any accidents from happening.

As it turned out, whether it was foresight or destined trouble.

Half a day after he finished cultivating the Heaven-Reaching Treasure Formula, while he was meditating and resting on the mountain peak, he seemed to sense something. Suddenly, his expression turned cold, and he said coldly, "Seeking death," before transforming into a green rainbow, rushing out of the barrier, and flying through the air in a certain direction.

After a few flashes, the startling rainbow vanished at the end of the horizon.

Almost at the same time, in the sky above the lake hundreds of miles away from the island, three escape lights shot toward the island in extreme panic.

In a ball of white light was a small human figure, precisely Qu'er.

And several miles behind them, four strange triangular war chariots were chasing relentlessly.

These war chariots were only a few feet in size each, but their surfaces were covered in green rust, their spiritual light was dim, and they even looked somewhat dilapidated. However, their speed was truly shocking; with a sway, they slid dozens of feet away without a sound.

Even though Qu'er was also someone proficient in escape techniques, she could only be pulled closer by the war chariots behind bit by bit.

As for the people in the other two escape lights in front, their flying speed was even faster than Qu'er's, and they could barely maintain their distance from the flying chariots behind.

"Cackle! Fellow Daoist Yue, you have already suffered great damage to your vitality in the previous battle. Now, even if you stimulate your potential, where can you run to? If you are sensible, hand over the Nine-Flame Grass in your hands. I can let you disintegrate your body and cultivate in your next life." A hoarse and unpleasant male voice came from one of the flying chariots behind, seeming to be somewhat impatient.

"Hmph, even if this fairy destroys this spiritual grass, you won't get half of it." An icy female voice rang out from a blue escape light in front.

"Why bother talking nonsense with them, Fairy Yue? They turned against us and ambushed us immediately after obtaining the treasure; we can never trust them again." Another angry voice rang out from a gray light.

"Don't worry, Elder Xu. After the previous incident, it would be truly ridiculous if this fairy still believed their words." The woman's voice softened.

Almost at the same time, a secret sound transmission from the woman reached the old man's ears:

"Elder Xu, is this direction correct? I'm afraid we really can't hold on much longer."

"It should be correct. According to the reaction of the previous magic tool, there should be our Tianyun people nearby in this direction. The young girl behind has a strange aura, as if she is something that has cultivated into form. She is likely a spirit beast carried by another team here. We have been marked by them, so we can only risk this gamble." The old man said loudly, but secretly transmitted this to the woman.

Hearing this, the woman sighed lightly and said no more, only fully urging her escape light to shoot forward.
