Chapter 2327

Among these buildings, many high-tier Flying Spirit people of various appearances were coming and going, looking quite lively.

But when the sky suddenly darkened and Yue Long appeared driving the wild wind, all the Flying Spirit people in the basin were shocked, and no matter what they were doing, they immediately knelt and kowtowed on the spot.

"Fellow Daoist Han, this is one of my seven cave dwellings, built in a rather special way. Fellow Daoist, let us go down together." After Yue Long appeared in the wild wind, he pointed remotely at the giant tower below and said to Han Li, who was following closely behind.

Han Li also appeared from his escape light, nodded, and slowly descended toward the giant tower below.

Yue Long's figure blurred, and he plunged directly into the entrance of the top floor of the giant tower with a gust of black wind.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Han Li was already in an exceptionally gorgeously decorated hall, sitting on a crimson gold chair.

Opposite him.

Yue Long sat on another chair of the same color, holding a jade green wine cup in his hand, and said with unusual enthusiasm:

"Brother Han, this Amber Essence Wine is brewed from forty-nine types of spirit herbs. After drinking it, it not only has the miraculous effect of restoring magic power but also has the effect of clearing the mind and sharpening the senses; it can be considered a rare spirit wine."

"It is indeed a rare vintage; Fellow Daoist has quite a good fortune." Han Li picked up the wine cup, took a light sip, raised his eyebrows, and praised.

"If Brother Han likes it, why not drink a few more cups?" Yue Long said with a beaming smile.

"Then I will not be polite." Han Li smiled slightly, drank all the spirit wine in the cup, and with his other hand, he made a void grasp, taking the wine pot from the table in front of him, and poured himself another cup.

"Haha, as long as Brother Han likes this wine, that is fine. Besides this, I have another treasure here that is not easily seen outside; Fellow Daoist might as well appreciate it." After Yue Long said this with a smile, he clapped his hands lightly.

With a "pa" sound, footsteps moved outside the door, and three Flying Spirit race women dressed as maids walked in with their heads lowered, standing in a row in front of Han Li.

Han Li's gaze flickered, and he did not linger on the beautiful faces of these maids, but looked at the pale silver trays they were holding.

On these trays, there was a palm-sized crystal brick, each of a different color, but the surface was exceptionally smooth—one deep yellow, one light blue, and one fiery red.

"These are..." After Han Li's spiritual sense swept over them, his face showed some movement.

These three crystal bricks emanated the distinct attributes of earth, fire, and water, respectively. Moreover, they were extremely pure, seemingly much more refined than those top-grade spirit stones.

"What does Brother Han think of these Polar Essence Crystals? They are materials that I refined myself; whether used for refining magic tools or as a substitute for spirit stones, they are incredibly profound." Yue Long had been watching Han Li's expression, and seeing the look of surprise, he let out a low laugh.

"Polar Essence Crystals! They are not innate objects; you refined them yourself?" Han Li's expression truly changed.

"That is correct. These materials were luckily refined by this younger brother using a secret technique. Not only were countless rare raw materials wasted, but I also failed countless times. But to be able to obtain these three items, I still feel it was well worth it," Yue Long said with some self-satisfaction.

"A secret technique?" Han Li's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Haha, Brother Han, please take a careful look at these things first; it is not too late for me to explain in detail later," Yue Long said with a mysterious look.

"Good, then I will not be polite." Han Li nodded and grabbed forward casually with one hand.

After the light blue crystal brick trembled on the silver tray, it immediately rose into the air and landed steadily in his hand.

Han Li lowered his head slightly, and with a "puchi" sound, a crystal thread shot out from between his brows, flashed into the crystal brick, and disappeared, while his eyes slowly closed.

Yue Long watched this scene with a smile, not intending to stop him at all.

After a good while.

Han Li raised his eyebrows, opened his eyes again, and the crystal thread between his brows flashed and dissipated from the crystal brick.

"Such pure heaven and earth energy; the spiritual energy contained within should be four or five times that of a top-grade spirit stone of the same volume, and the degree of purity is incomparable to ordinary spirit stones. But the structure inside is a bit strange; it actually contains innate spirit patterns. If used to refine magic tools, it should form some kind of special divine ability. I just don't know how tough it is?" Han Li said with some solemnity.

"Brother Han truly has eyes like torches, actually stating most of the special features of this Polar Essence Crystal. As for its toughness, Fellow Daoist can try it yourself," Yue Long's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands with a smile.

"Since Fellow Daoist has said so, then I will give it a try." A strange look flashed across Han Li's face. The next moment, he opened his mouth, and a green thread shot out with a whistling sound, circled the crystal brick in his hand rapidly, and then flashed back.

The light blue crystal brick shone brightly with blue light, and a shallow sword mark appeared on its surface.

Then, circles of light blue halos flashed, and the sword mark faded and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Heavy Essence Spirit Molding; this material actually has the miraculous effect of spirit molding!" Han Li exclaimed involuntarily.

"Brother Han saw the spirit molding characteristic at a glance; you are truly worthy of being such a famous person. That is correct. Not only this one, but the other two Polar Essence Crystals also possess this miraculous effect. Treasures refined with this material, unless the main body is completely reduced to ashes, can repair themselves as good as new given enough time. Some natal treasures also have the characteristic of self-repair, but that requires the owner to continuously nurture them with true essence, and the time spent is far from comparable to treasures refined with heavy essence molding materials. Therefore, there is no need to say anything more about its great value, right?" A look of surprise flashed across Yue Long's face, but he spoke slowly.

"Materials with Heavy Essence Spirit Molding are extremely rare not only in the Spirit Realm but even in other interfaces. Moreover, this object can withstand a strike from my sword light without being cut open, which shows that its toughness is also absolutely extraordinary. Fellow Daoist, you suddenly took out these Polar Essence Crystals; you wouldn't really just be asking me to comment on them, would you?" Han Li played with the crystal brick in his hand for a moment before asking thoughtfully.

"Fellow Daoist is truly straightforward, so I will not beat around the bush. I invited Brother Han here because I do indeed have a request. And once it is accomplished, I will present these three Polar Crystals as a reward. What does Fellow Daoist think?" Yue Long was startled at first, but after blinking his eyes, he immediately replied with a calm expression.

"The value of one Polar Essence Crystal is already quite high. You are actually willing to give three as a reward; the matter you are requesting cannot be very simple. Fellow Daoist, please speak of it, and I will decide then," Han Li frowned, looked at the crystal brick in his hand twice, and replied calmly.

"This matter might be difficult for ordinary Body Integration stage cultivators, but for a great power like Brother Han, it is not worth mentioning. I spent all my efforts to refine this kind of Polar Essence Crystal because I wanted to use this material to refine a supreme treasure of the five elements to resist the next Great Heavenly Tribulation. However, I spent thousands of years of hard work and could only refine Polar Essence Crystals of water, fire, and earth attributes. If I want to obtain materials of the other two attributes, I must have someone's help. Brother Han should be the most suitable candidate," Yue Long hesitated slightly before speaking frankly.

"You want me to help refine Polar Essence Crystals?" Han Li was greatly surprised upon hearing this.

"That is correct. I will not hide it from Brother Han; the refining of this kind of Polar Essence Crystal must be formed with the help of heaven and earth power of different attributes. The first three attributes were fine; although I failed many times, I succeeded a few times. Only when refining the gold and wood attribute Polar Essence Crystals did the heaven and earth power drawn down become truly too astonishing, and it was no longer something I could control. That is why I had to ask for Brother Han's help," Yue Long cupped his fists at Han Li and said with unusual sincerity.

"If it is truly just helping to control the heaven and earth power, I am not unable to help. However, I still have two points of confusion, and I hope Fellow Daoist can clear them up for me," Han Li pondered for a moment before asking cautiously.

"Brother Han, please feel free to ask; I will tell you everything I know," Yue Long was overjoyed and said without hesitation.

"This is the first time you have met me. Since you want to find someone to help, why not invite other close friends to do this? Secondly, if I help you control the heaven and earth power drawn down, will there be any unexpected and great danger? After all, the power of heaven and earth is unpredictable and its might is unfathomable. Furthermore, how can you be sure that I can help you refine Polar Essence Crystals of other attributes? Aren't you afraid that I might not be up to the task!" Han Li looked at Yue Long, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"So Brother Han was just worried about me. Haha, this is very normal; if it were me encountering such a thing, I would only be more careful. However, Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I can answer these questions one by one," Yue Long laughed instead after hearing Han Li's questions.

"Oh, then I will listen respectfully," Han Li said with an unchanging expression.

"The first question is because you haven't witnessed the gold and wood heaven and earth power I drew down with your own eyes, which is why you think this way. These last two types of heaven and earth power are far more difficult to draw out than the first three, so their power is several times greater than the first three, and they are simply not something an ordinary Body Integration stage cultivator can withstand. I tried twice at the time and didn't dare to try a third time. Although I have a few close friends, their cultivation and divine abilities are not much different from mine, so naturally, they cannot deal with the might of these two types of heaven and earth power. Moreover, the control of this heaven and earth power cannot be compensated for by the number of people; it must be controlled by one person to operate smoothly and refine this Polar Essence Crystal," Yue Long's expression became solemn as he began to recount seriously.

"As for the second question, if I were to say there is absolutely no danger, it would naturally be too false, but as long as full preparations are made, the danger of controlling the heaven and earth power can indeed be reduced to the lowest level. At the very least, the first two times I wanted to control these two types of gold and wood heaven and earth power, it was just a close call."

"As for the last question..." Yue Long paused slightly when he reached this point.
