Chapter 2276: Hao Yin Stone

After the light pillars vanished into the void in a flash, the over a dozen fire lions fleeing in the distance had crystal light flash on their bodies, and they turned into giant ice blocks.

The white-robed youth's face turned cold, and he flapped his cicada wings, appearing before one of the ice blocks in a blur, then slapped it lightly. With a "bang," an astonishing scene appeared!

The fire lion inside the ice block trembled, shattering inch by inch into blood mist.

Only a ball of red light, formed by its essence, struggled frantically within the blood mist, but it was unable to break out of the ice block.

At this moment, the white-robed youth unhurriedly opened his mouth, spraying out a sheet of white light that vanished into the ice block.

As the light rolled, the blood mist and the fire lion's essence were all rolled out and, with a "thud," swallowed directly into his belly.

The white-robed youth moved continuously nearby, using the same method to swallow the flesh and essence of the other fire lions before showing a satisfied expression and turning to ask the silver-robed woman in the distance.

"Daoist Ice Phoenix, the taste of this fresh meat is quite delicious. Would you like to try a few?"

The silver-robed woman in the distance was none other than Ice Phoenix, who had left the human race many years ago.

But her aura was several times stronger than before, and she was only one step away from the Body Integration realm.

"I never eat fresh meat. Daoist Six Wings, please help yourself," Ice Phoenix replied with an expressionless face.

"What a pity. The flesh of these ancient beasts contains quite a bit of scorching sun power. Swallowing them and having the yin and yang intersect with our ice-attribute true essence is quite beneficial after refining," the white-robed youth chuckled.

Following this, his body moved continuously, and in an instant, he swallowed all the remaining fire lions into blood mist before appearing beside Ice Phoenix in a flash.

"Daoist Ice Phoenix. Let's continue our journey. I heard from other alien races not long ago that the Yu Clan near here has established a super teleportation array across the continent with a major clan on the Thunder Continent. We can just borrow it!" The white-robed youth said something that surprised Ice Phoenix.

"Daoist Six Wings, are you truly planning to go to the Thunder Continent?" Ice Phoenix said solemnly after her expression shifted several times. "That goes without saying. If it weren't for the fact that I learned my former master had advanced to the Grand Cultivation stage from other alien races not long ago, I might have returned to the human race. But now? I must go to the Thunder Continent. Otherwise, with my current divine abilities, I have no confidence in suppressing my former master," the white-robed youth sneered, his face twisting with gold and silver patterns, faintly resembling Han Li.

"If I remember correctly, Brother Han never treated you unfairly back then. Even if he hadn't fed you spirit pills, you wouldn't have had the day you opened your intelligence, let alone reached this step!" Ice Phoenix fell silent for a moment before saying with a strange expression.

"The reason I want to slay Han Li has nothing to do with how he treated me before. He used a blood sacrifice technique to plant a master-servant mark in my divine sense. Although the secret technique has erased most of its effect, as long as he is alive, I am restricted by him to some extent. Hehe, since I have opened my intelligence and cultivated a human body, I am destined to walk the path of the Great Dao. How could I have such a weakness in the hands of others?

So, I am going to the Thunder Continent," the white-robed youth said coldly.

"Even so, do you truly think you can find what you want on the Thunder Continent? That thing is just a rumor; I don't think you have even a one in ten thousand chance of finding it!" Ice Phoenix narrowed her eyes and said slowly.

"You don't need to worry about that. Since I plan to go there, I naturally have some confidence. And the Su Yin Clan on the Thunder Continent is indeed rarely seen by anyone. Rumor has it that this clan can communicate directly with the Yin Star and can refine Su Yin Star Qi. Hehe, as long as I use the Reverse Spirit Technique to absorb this star qi, I can directly cultivate into a True Spirit body and stand on equal footing with other powerful True Spirits. By then, slaying Han Li, this former master, will be a piece of cake," the white-robed youth said indifferently.

Hearing this, Ice Phoenix's face became somewhat ugly.

"Even if you plan to find trouble with Brother Han or go to the Thunder Continent, why must you take me with you? If you truly wanted to kill me, you would have done it long ago," Ice Phoenix stared at the white-robed youth, and after a long while, said through gritted teeth.

"Kill you? Why would I do that? It is rare to find such a creature of extreme yin that has cultivated into a human body. And you and I are a pair, one male and one female, a perfect match created by heaven and earth. After I slay that kid Han Li, you will obediently be my dual cultivation partner," the white-robed youth laughed wildly, actually saying such things.

"You are also a Grand Cultivation ancestor; isn't it a bit beneath your status to force someone to be your dual cultivation partner?" Ice Phoenix said, her face turning pale.

"Hmph, it is precisely because I am already a Grand Cultivation existence that it is extremely difficult to find a partner like Daoist Ice Phoenix, who has the same attributes and potential not inferior to mine, that I won't let you go easily. As for status? What use is that in my eyes?" the white-robed youth said with disdain.

Hearing these words, Ice Phoenix felt a sense of shame and anger, but knowing she was no match for him and had no chance of escaping before him, she simply remained silent.

The white-robed youth did not want to say anything more. With a flick of his sleeve, a phantom of a snow-white centipede with six wings appeared above his head, lunged downward, wrapped them both inside, and after flapping its six wings, shot off as a crystal light.

After a few flickers, it vanished at the end of the horizon.

On the other side, on the human Saint Island.

After Han Li discussed some important matters with several disciples in the cave dwelling, he waved his hand and ordered:

"Alright, except for your Junior Sister Bai, everyone else leave. I have some things to ask her specifically."

"Yes, Master!"

"Then this junior will take my leave!"

Qi Lingzi, Hai Dashao, Zhu Guo'er, and the others agreed respectfully and retreated from the hall.

Only Bai Guo'er remained, standing honestly in place.

"Guo'er, do you know why I asked you to stay?" Han Li asked calmly as soon as the others left.

"This junior dares to guess, does it have something to do with the training I am about to undertake?" Bai Guo'er hesitated before guessing.

"You are indeed clever. It does indeed have something to do with this. Do you still remember what I said when I took you as a disciple?" Han Li smiled before speaking unhurriedly.

"What you said when you took me as a disciple... Master, are you referring to the matter concerning my Ice Marrow Body? I naturally remember it clearly and dare not forget," Bai Guo'er felt a chill in her heart and hurriedly replied.

"Hehe, your cultivation can be considered to have made some initial progress, and you are about to go to the wilderness world for training. It is time to tell you about this," Han Li said with a smile.

"Please instruct me, Master!" Bai Guo'er said respectfully. "Actually, for you, it is not a very difficult task. I just want you to help me find something while you are traveling. This thing is called Hao Yin Stone. It is usually located tens of thousands of zhang beneath glaciers. Because of the cover of the cold air for ten thousand zhang nearby, even divine sense cannot detect its existence. The only way to find it is for someone who also possesses the Cold Soul divine ability to sense it from afar using the Cold Soul Qi in their body. And Master needs a large amount of this material, so I need you to start collecting it for me while you are traveling. If you can truly help me collect enough, I will definitely reward you heavily when you return," Han Li said slowly.

"If it weren't for Master risking the loss of a massive amount of true essence to save me back then, I wouldn't be here today. Master, rest assured, Guo'er will definitely do her best," Bai Guo'er knelt down after hearing this and said without hesitation.

"Your cultivation is not high right now, so don't force yourself too much. Just help me collect this thing while you are traveling," Han Li waved his hand, signaling Bai Guo'er to rise.

After Bai Guo'er rose, she agreed, but as her thoughts turned, she couldn't help but make a vow to find the Hao Yin Stone with all her heart.

After Han Li gave Bai Guo'er a few more words of advice, he let her leave as well.

In the blink of an eye, only Han Li remained in the hall.

He sat alone in the chair, tapping the armrest with one hand while resting his chin in the other, lost in thought.

Speaking of which, when he first obtained the refining method for the Yuan He Five Extreme Mountains, he originally thought that this postnatal Mysterious Heaven treasure was hopeless to truly refine, and that it would be enough to refine one or two of the Extreme Mountains, which would be of great help to him.

But he never expected that his own destiny was not small, and in his future cultivation, he had successively refined the Yuan Magnetic Extreme Mountain, the Taiyi Green Light Extreme Mountain, and the Yin-Yang Great Five Elements Extreme Mountain.

If Bai Guo'er could truly find a sufficient quantity of Hao Yin Stone and refine the Hao Yin Cold Soul Extreme Mountain, he would have gathered four Extreme Mountains.

As for the only remaining North Pole Origin Light Extreme Mountain, he had some clues about it back in the human world.

With his current divine abilities, it was naturally impossible for him to go to the human world in person. But if he used one or two boundary-breaking supreme treasures to send a wisp of his divine sense avatar down, it was not impossible.

It was just that the risk was not small, and he had to plan carefully before truly making up his mind.

As long as he truly gathered the five Extreme Mountains and refined the Yuan He Five Extreme Mountains, not only would he not have to worry about the next few great tribulations, but he would also have a chance to pass the Ascension Tribulation.

As Han Li pondered, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Han Li thought to himself while a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
