Chapter 2263: True Immortal's Account

"Hehe, abolish the divine ability? If it were truly that easy to get rid of, the Immortal World wouldn't have listed the Refining God Art as a forbidden technique all along. It seems you don't know that once you start cultivating this secret technique, you can only move forward, and you cannot stop halfway. Judging by your current second-layer realm, if you don't reach the third layer of the Refining God Art within ten thousand years, your spiritual sense sea will definitely be unable to contain such massive spiritual sense power, and you will explode and die. In this situation, even if you seize a body and recultivate, you won't have the slightest chance of survival," the man sneered and said another thing that made Han Li's heart sink.

"Ten thousand years! Fortunately, at least I have some time to plan a rescue strategy. But the third layer... The Refining God Art only has three layers in total, right?" Han Li's eyes flashed a few times before he asked back.

He naturally couldn't believe everything the other party said just based on their words, but he still heard some suspicious things from it.

"Three layers? Who told you the Refining God Art only has three layers? Oh, I understand. You only obtained the cultivation method for the first half of the Refining God Art and didn't obtain the entire cultivation method. The entire Refining God Art should have seven layers. You only cultivated the first two layers... If you want to survive, your cultivation path is still long!" The man was first stunned, but immediately became somewhat enlightened.

"Thank you for the point, Senior. But I don't know if Senior understands the cultivation method for the later layers!" Han Li sighed and suddenly asked this.

"Although the Refining God Art cannot be considered very rare in the Immortal World, it is not comparable to ordinary goods. Plus, the Immortal World has always forbidden the teaching and trading of this method, and I am a patrol envoy, so unfortunately, I don't know the cultivation method for the second half. However, you don't need to be too anxious, fellow daoist. As long as you can cultivate the third layer of the Refining God Art, the time when your spiritual sense faces a crisis again will be pushed back by another three or four thousand years. With such a long time, with your aptitude, you should have a chance to ascend to the Immortal World and seek another solution," the man said meaningfully.

With such a long time, given your aptitude, you should have a chance to ascend to the Immortal World and find another way to solve this." The man replied with deep meaning.

"Haha, that was before you met me. Don't forget, there is a genuine True Immortal in front of you. If I am willing to help, you will have at least two or three times more chance to ascend to the Immortal World smoothly than before," the man's voice chuckled.

"With Senior's True Immortal status, if you are willing to give some pointers, Junior does indeed have a sliver of possibility to truly ascend to the Immortal World. However, Senior called Junior here, it wouldn't just be to help me, right?" Han Li was silent for a moment before sighing and asking calmly.

"You are indeed a sensible person! If you were of no use to me, although I would also help kill that Ming Mother, I would never have spent the effort to teleport you here. The reason I did this is that I intend to borrow your power to help me do something. As a reward for helping me, I will give you some methods to cultivate the third layer of the Refining God Art as quickly as possible and pass the ascension tribulation. What do you think?" The man didn't intend to hide it, saying it directly.

"If Senior wants to find someone to help, Fellow Daoist Baohua, as a Saint Ancestor of this realm, should be more suitable, right? Why must you find Junior?" Han Li wasn't surprised, but asked back coldly.

"If Senior wants to find someone to help, Fellow Daoist Bao Hua, as a Sacred Ancestor of this realm, should be more suitable. Why must you seek out this junior?" Han Li did not feel surprised, but he asked back with extreme calmness.

"Senior means this..." Han Li's heart tightened, and his expression became somewhat solemn.

"Senior, what do you mean by that...", Han Li's heart tightened, and his expression became somewhat solemn.

"What, Senior found Junior precisely because I cultivated the Refining God Art!" Han Li was truly somewhat confused.

"Correct. Although your spiritual sense power is quite powerful now, far exceeding ordinary existences of the same tier by several times, it is still slightly inferior to mine at my peak. I mean, only after you cultivate the third layer of the Refining God Art will you have a chance to do this," the man chuckled.

"Correct. Although this poor Daoist is not yet fully awake, you can probably guess a few things about this current predicament." The man said with a bitter laugh.

"Since Senior has said so, this junior does indeed have some doubts about the events of that year, and I hope Senior can enlighten me. Is the primordial spirit inside the Mother of Myriad Insects we just killed no longer the primordial spirit of that ferocious insect from back then? Of course, if it is inconvenient for Senior, then never mind.", Han Li hesitated for a moment before asking cautiously.

"Although the events of that year are somewhat unbearable to look back on, telling you a little about them is no harm. When that Mother of Myriad Insects was wreaking havoc in the lower realms back then, after the leader of the Immortal World's inspection envoys discovered it, he sent me and another inspection envoy to descend to the lower realms together to eradicate this demon. Of course, although it was very difficult for us immortals to descend to the lower realms at that time, it was still possible through some special means..." After a moment of silence in the alms bowl, the man's voice slowly began to recount the story.

Being able to hear a participant from an ancient legend personally recount the experiences of that year was certainly not an experience every Great Ascension stage existence could have, so Han Li naturally gathered all his focus to listen intently.

"Although I did not expect that just as the two of us were about to completely eradicate the Mother of Myriad Insects, a great change in the starry sky erupted, which directly affected the various realms. We were suddenly hit by the interface power that we had originally suppressed with treasures and secret techniques! As a result, the situation reversed instantly; with our magic power suppressed, we were almost devoured by the Mother of Myriad Insects instead. Later, having no other choice, the two of us could only adopt a method of mutual destruction, simultaneously self-destructing our bodies and performing a certain immortal secret technique, which finally severely wounded the Mother of Myriad Insects. Of course, by that time, we had no way to break the insect mother's undying body, so we could only borrow the bodies of two high-tier demon cultivators to build this giant seal, and leave behind some parting words. By that time, we had already discovered that after that great change in the starry sky, the two of us had lost contact with the Immortal World and had no way to return to the Immortal World using the original methods. Thus, we borrowed the identities of the demon Great Ascension stage cultivators to secretly investigate some famous realms in the lower realms. We discovered that this great change in the starry sky had affected all realms, causing the interface power to increase by more than ten times compared to before, and indeed, we could not find any way to actively return to the Immortal World. Having no other choice, the two of us could only return to this sealing place, set up this small array, and let our primordial spirits escape into it to begin our slumber. At that time, we could only pin our hopes on some of our good friends and close acquaintances in the Immortal World still remembering us and finding a way to break through the interface to rescue us. Over such a long period of time, the two of us would temporarily wake up once every thousand years or so, but each time was a huge disappointment. And after such a long time had passed, my companion, in her despair, finally had some disputes with me. After several arguments, during one awakening, she suddenly restrained me and sealed this poor Daoist's primordial spirit inside this current container."

The man's voice echoed endlessly on the altar, and a trace of unusual fluctuation finally appeared in his words.

"She herself took the Jade Pure Lamp Oil that the array originally used to maintain the soul's immortality and went to find that sealed Mother of Myriad Insects. As for the outcome, you should have guessed a few things when you saw that Mother of Myriad Insects. As for me, if I hadn't been cautious and left behind a little Jade Pure Lamp Oil beforehand, I would have likely had my soul scattered long ago, long before her. As for why she would do this, I imagine it was mostly to borrow the body of the Mother of Myriad Insects to cultivate into a True Extreme Body, and then try to forcibly break through the interface power to return to the Immortal World. Of course, perhaps she had other ideas, but that is not something this poor Daoist can know." The man finally recounted the events of that year... roughly.

"So that's why so many things happened back then; no wonder Senior has been trapped here all this time. The favor Senior wants me to help with, could it be to help you regain your freedom from this magic tool?" After listening, Han Li's thoughts turned rapidly... but he asked calmly.

"Hehe, although this poor Daoist was initially sealed in this black sandalwood alms bowl, after these years of self-breaking, I have already regained most of my freedom. Otherwise, I would not have been able to help you not long ago. What I want you to do is to use the powerful divine sense power amplified by your cultivation of the God-Refining Technique to help me activate a treasure talisman in my hand. Once this talisman is activated, it can ignore the interface power and send a message to a good friend of mine in the Immortal World. I believe that based on our friendship back then, once he knows of my current predicament, he will definitely do his best to find a way to rescue me back to the Immortal World." Somewhat unexpectedly for Han Li, the man said this solemnly.

"Senior has a talisman that can reach the Immortal World directly?" Hearing this, Han Li could not hide his astonishment.

"You don't need to be too surprised. Ordinary talismans, of course, cannot do this. This treasure talisman in my hand comes from a renowned Immortal Lord of the Immortal World; very few have circulated to the outside world, and under normal circumstances, ordinary low-tier immortals cannot activate such a treasure talisman because their divine sense power is insufficient. That is why I have sought out Fellow Daoist Han." The man said somewhat helplessly.

"Senior means that with the divine sense power amplified by this junior's current God-Refining Technique, I can activate this treasure talisman!" Han Li asked with a frown.

"Although your divine sense power is quite powerful now, several times that of existences in the same realm, it is still slightly inferior to mine at my peak. I am referring to the possibility of you being able to do this only after you have cultivated the God-Refining Technique to the third layer." The man replied with a light laugh.
