Xue Ran, Hei Lin, and Mo Jianli all received the crystal cores, and after checking that there were no problems, they naturally accepted them with great joy.

"Since the reward has been paid in full, the transaction between our clan and you fellow Daoists can be considered a happy ending for all. But I wonder when you intend to leave this realm. This realm is, after all, a bit small and cannot accommodate too many Great Ascension existences like us." The Asura Spider Matriarch suddenly asked with a flicker in her eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, rest assured, we will leave on our own in a few days at most. However, the resources of this Small Asura Realm are quite different from those of our Spirit Realm, so we intend to collect a few more. You won't try to stop us in this regard, will you?" Han Li smiled lightly and said nonchalantly.

"Giggle, if it's just collecting resources, our clan will naturally not interfere in the slightest. However, besides our clan, there are still two or three tricky existences in this realm. You had better not be too careless." The woman gave a coquettish smile and said with deep meaning.

"Oh, is one of the ones you mentioned that Che Qizi!" Mo Jianli's expression shifted upon hearing this.

"Fellow Daoist Mo also knows of the existence of this fierce beast? Could it be you have already seen it?" The woman was slightly shocked and asked offhandedly.

"I did encounter it once. This beast is worthy of being a legendary ancient fierce beast; I almost fell into its hands." Mo Jianli's face changed a couple of times before he sighed and said.

"This realm still has such a fierce beast? Fellow Daoist Luo, could you tell us where its nest is?" Hearing the conversation between the woman and Mo Jianli, Xue Ran's face lit up with joy, and he even interrupted to ask with a hint of excitement.

"The nest of Che Qizi, I do know, but..." The Asura Spider Matriarch's gaze flickered, revealing a contemplative expression.

"Rest assured, my brother and I will not ask for the information in vain. As long as Fellow Daoist Luo tells us, we will naturally reward you heavily." Seeing the woman's expression, Xue Ran immediately realized his demeanor was somewhat inappropriate, so he quickly suppressed his excitement and said calmly.

Then, this alien Great Ascension cultivator flipped his palm, took out a small leather bag, and tossed it over with a shake.

The woman summoned the leather bag with her jade hand, swept it with her spiritual sense, and revealed a look of surprise. After raising her head to look deeply at Xue Ran, she said slowly:

"I have a map here that marks the location of Che Qizi's nest. You can take it and have a look."

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman raised her hand, and a white jade slip flew out from her sleeve.

Xue Ran rolled his sleeve, took the jade slip, and immediately placed it against his forehead, revealing a solemn expression.

Beside him, Hei Lin's expression was also somewhat unusual, and the gaze he cast toward the jade slip had a hint of eagerness.

At this moment, the blood-skirted girl suddenly smiled toward Han Li and said:

"You fellow Daoists are also famous figures in the outside world. I assume you carry many rare treasures with you. How about this: our clan has also collected some resources over the years that are not available in the outside world. Why not exchange some with our clan first, and then go search for materials on your own? In this way, you can save yourselves a lot of time."

"Fellow Daoist Ying means to hold a temporary small trading fair here." Han Li was startled, but immediately laughed.

"That's right. To tell the truth, our clan should have collected more or less all the resources and materials available in this realm. As long as you can pay a sufficient price, our clan will definitely satisfy you all." The girl said with an unchanging expression.

Hearing these words from the girl, the Asura Spider Matriarch did not try to stop her, appearing to tacitly approve of this suggestion.

And Mo Jianli and the others were all greatly moved upon hearing this.

With the time they had left in this Small Asura Realm, it was indeed impossible to collect a sufficient quantity of materials. If they could exchange for some from the Asura clan, it would be a good method.

"Good, I have some things on me, so I will exchange some with your clan." After thinking for a moment, Mo Jianli was the first to agree.

"My brother and I also have some assets, so we will exchange some as well." Xue Ran and Hei Lin exchanged a few words via sound transmission and similarly agreed.

"Since you fellow Daoists are all participating, Han naturally will not be an exception." Han Li said with an unchanging expression.

For such a matter with benefits and no drawbacks, he naturally had no reason not to participate.

"Good, let's find another place nearby, and I will begin the formal trading." The blood-skirted girl smiled sweetly, her demeanor extremely charming.

Xue Ran and the others agreed immediately, and Han Li nodded as well, but his gaze swept toward the direction of the cold pool one more time, as if unintentionally.

This action was extremely secretive and did not attract the attention of anyone else in the slightest.

Several hours later, above another small island not far from the island where the cold pool was located, the group of Asura Spiders, led by the woman and the blood-skirted girl, rode the original black giant eagle and gradually moved away with satisfied expressions.

Above the small island, only the four foreign Great Ascension cultivators remained, standing quietly.

In the exchange just now, whether it was Han Li, Mo Jianli, or Xue Ran and Hei Lin, all had gained a great harvest, obtaining many rare resources unique to the Asura Realm.

Although everyone had paid a considerable price, overall, it was a happy ending for all.

"Brother Han, are we really letting these Asura Spiders go back like this? If we change our minds now, it's not too late." Watching the group of Asura Spiders move away, Xue Ran suddenly said.

"Why change our minds? If this clan were really that easy to take down, why would we need to make any trades with them? We would have just killed them directly at their nest." Han Li replied with an unchanging expression.

"Earlier, I didn't know these Asura Spiders had such abundant assets; the exchange just now might have only been one or two tenths of what they have hidden. More importantly, Fellow Daoist, aren't you tempted by that spatial stone? The strength of the laws of space contained in that object is something even I have only seen once in my life. If we could obtain this object, as long as we took turns keeping it for a period of time, it's possible we could all comprehend and master the true laws of space." Xue Ran raised his eyebrows, his words filled with endless temptation.

Mo Jianli, who was to the side, also had a shift in expression upon hearing this.

"Hehe, what a pity! Han is not interested in the power of space, so I have no intention of taking any more risks. If you two fellow Daoists are truly interested in this object, you can completely discuss it with the Asura Spider clan. Perhaps as long as you offer a sufficient price, the other party might directly exchange it with you two. But I will not be involved!" Han Li chuckled and said noncommittally.

Xue Ran's face changed slightly upon hearing this, but he yawned and immediately said:

"Fellow Daoist is joking! Looking at how much these Asura Spiders value this object, I'm afraid even if my brother and I emptied our assets, the other party would never have the slightest intention of exchanging it. Since Brother Han is unwilling to make a move, then let's pretend I never said what I said earlier. My brother and I have other matters, so we will part ways with you two fellow Daoists here."

This alien Great Ascension cultivator said this while cupping his hands toward Han Li and Mo Jianli respectively.

Nearby, Hei Lin saw this and also cupped his hands.

"I wish you two fellow Daoists a safe journey!" Han Li chuckled and returned the salute.

Mo Jianli also said a few words of care with a smile on his face.

Thus, Xue Ran and Hei Lin's escape lights rose, turning into two long rainbows that broke through the air and left, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Han, what are your plans next? Are you still prepared to go find some rare materials?" Mo Jianli asked Han Li with a smile once the escape lights in the distance had truly vanished.

"I do have that intention. There are still a few days before we leave this realm, so I'll see if I can find any other opportunities. What are Brother Mo's plans?" Han Li smiled slightly and asked in return.

"For me to obtain three crystal cores on this trip can already be considered extremely lucky, so I don't intend to take any more risks. Next, I will find a secluded place to meditate and rest, waiting quietly for the day of departure. Although Fellow Daoist Han has astonishing divine abilities, you must still be careful of a counterattack from the Asura Spider clan in the next few days." Mo Jianli said with a solemn expression.

"Hmm, Brother Mo's approach is also extremely appropriate. As for those Asura Spiders, perhaps I cannot kill them alone, but it is also impossible for them to deal with me." Han Li laughed and said with extreme confidence.

"Brother Han has everything under control, so I can rest easy. Without further ado, I will take my leave first. We will meet again in the Spirit Realm in a few days." Mo Jianli's expression relaxed, and he revealed a smile again as he bid farewell to Han Li.

Han Li did not try to keep him, and after saying a few words of farewell, he watched as Mo Jianli raised his hand to release a small boat, stepped onto it with a flicker, and turned into a startling rainbow that broke through the air and left.

Han Li stood quietly in the original spot for a good while before withdrawing his gaze from the distance, turning his head to glance at the giant island where the cold pool had originally been, and a strange expression suddenly appeared on his face.

He shook his sleeve, and his entire body immediately turned into a mass of cyan light, soaring into the air and flying straight toward the giant island.

After only the time it takes to eat a meal, Han Li reappeared above the original valley.

He hovered in the void and swept a glance indifferently at the cold pool below.

He saw that the cold air in the entire valley seemed to be weaker than before.

However, because the nearby magic array had been removed, the void around the cold pool was still frozen into a large mass of crystal-clear black ice, sealing the entrance to the entire cold pool once again.

Han Li watched the huge ice block below silently for a while before suddenly opening his mouth, and a mass of silver flames shot out, turning into a silver firebird after a flicker.

Han Li chanted, formed seals with one hand, and pointed at the silver firebird in the empty air.

Immediately, with a "Puff," the silver firebird raised its head and chirped. After the silver feathers on its body ignited, its volume grew rapidly.

In an instant, the silver firebird had grown to more than ten zhang in size, with raging silver flames flowing over its body, though its demeanor clearly appeared somewhat withered.

Clearly, after the previous battle with the purple peacock summoned by that ancient lamp, its consumption had been quite significant.

Seeing this, Han Li frowned, but immediately opened his mouth with an expressionless face, and several masses of cyan essence energy spat out, sinking into the giant firebird's body and disappearing without a trace after a few flashes. RQ!!!
