Chapter 2352

~11 min read 2,040 words

As soon as this page was taken out, it buzzed and trembled in his hand, looking as if it wanted to struggle desperately to fly away. Han Li smiled slightly and rubbed his hands together; the golden light dimmed, and the buzzing sound stopped abruptly.

Only then did he clamp the page with two fingers and shake it casually.

With a 「Puff」 sound.

Countless golden seal characters surged out from the page and quickly transformed into a scripture that appeared before him.

Han Li narrowed his eyes and looked at it intently.

「Five Viscera Tempering Origin Technique」

He couldn't help but speak the name of the divine ability written at the beginning of the scripture to himself.

Han Li's expression shifted slightly, vaguely realizing something, and he hurriedly began to read downward.

Time passed bit by bit, but Han Li's face couldn't help but show a hint of surprise and joy.

After he finished reading the entire scripture, he shook his sleeve, and a ball of cyan light rolled out.

With a 「Bang」 sound, the cyan light flashed, causing the scripture to turn into dots of spiritual light and vanish.

Han Li closed his eyes and began to contemplate quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, when he opened his eyes again, he let out a light laugh.

「Interesting, interesting. It's actually a cultivation technique specifically for tempering the five viscera and six bowels; this is quite rare. After this technique is cultivated, it can not only allow the five viscera and six bowels to become containers for storing magic power like the dantian, greatly increasing magic power, but it can also generate many extremely profound divine abilities. This technique and the Hundred Meridians Tempering Treasure Technique can be said to complement each other; they likely came from the same source. To be able to obtain immortal world secret techniques with the same origin among the thirty-six inner pages of the jade book is truly good luck. 」

After Han Li muttered for a while, he suddenly remembered something and frowned.

According to the jade book, this technique has extremely harsh requirements for the strength of the physical body and meridians, and it requires swallowing a massive amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy during cultivation; the slowness of cultivation is almost hair-raising.

The former is fine; he has already cultivated the Hundred Meridians Tempering Treasure Technique, and his physical body is strong enough, so it should be easy to meet the requirements.

As for the latter, even with the assistance of spirit pills to save more than half of the bitter cultivation time, if he truly wants to cultivate to a small realm, I'm afraid it will have to be calculated in ten thousand years. 」

Hehe, 「longer than ordinary cultivation techniques」, that Hu Yushuang spoke very lightly at the auction.

If it were an ordinary Grand Ascension cultivator, without fifty or sixty thousand years of bitter cultivation time, it would be something they couldn't even dream of.

The Brahma Saint True Demon Technique is also considered a very difficult technique to cultivate, and he spent quite a bit of time on it.

But compared to this technique, it is considered a very short cultivation method.

No wonder the Helian Commercial Alliance viewed this item as a chicken rib and was willing to take it out for auction.

However, according to the page, even if this technique is only initially cultivated to a small success, it has an astonishing improvement on strength, so it would be a pity to give it up just like that.

Han Li thought silently in his heart, his face changing to an indecisive expression.

This immortal world secret technique is indeed very tempting, but the ten thousand years of cultivation time also makes one feel daunted.

You must know that it only took him a little over two thousand years to cultivate step by step from a mortal to the current Body Integration stage.

Now, to spend more than four or five times that time on a single auxiliary cultivation technique, he naturally felt a moment of hesitation.

「Who is it? Why be sneaky outside? Come in. 」 Han Li suddenly had a flash of sharp light in his eyes. His divine sense seemed to have sensed something, his face sank, and he said coldly.

Following this, he beckoned into the void toward the door with one hand.

With a 「Bang」 sound, the door opened, and a faint figure was standing straight outside.

「Hehe, Fellow Daoist Han is truly more alert than others. I only just used a secret technique to teleport here, and I was immediately discovered. 」

As the blurry figure spoke, his body simultaneously became clear rapidly.

After Han Li saw the face of the figure clearly, his pupils shrank.

「It's you. Your courage is truly not small. Instead of trying to teleport and escape far away, you dare to appear directly in front of me. Aren't you afraid I'll take action to capture you? 」 he said coldly.

This figure had an ordinary face and was shockingly the black-robed man who should have long since fled.

He was standing outside the door with a smile, but there was a hint of surprise deep in his eyes; clearly, he hadn't expected to be discovered so quickly. 「If I could have walked away, I would have been far away thousands of miles ago. Why would I come to find Fellow Daoist Han? That teleportation array was originally a diversion; the two of us were only teleported to another corner of the underground world. 」 The black-robed man chuckled, moved his body, and walked into the secret room swaggeringly.

「Your schemes are quite good; no wonder Fellow Daoist Ming and the others were deceived. But why are you appearing here instead of continuing to try to save your life? Could it be that you came specifically for me? 」 Han Li was somewhat surprised, but immediately asked with his usual expression.

「You guessed right; I am indeed here specifically to find you. 」 The black-robed man actually nodded and admitted it.

「Have I seen you before? 」 Han Li frowned and asked another question.

「Of course not, this is the first time I, Tian, have met you. 」 The black-robed man said without hesitation.

「Since we have never met before, why look for me? And from your tone, you don't seem like a stranger to me; it's as if you've known about me for a long time. Can you explain this to me first? 」 Han Li stared at the other party's face and said expressionlessly.

「I know of Brother Han's existence naturally from someone else. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Han remembers Fan Paozi? 」 The black-robed man replied unhurriedly.

「You know Fellow Daoist Fan? 」 Han Li was truly somewhat surprised and revealed an astonished expression.

「More than just knowing him, this guy and I are close friends. Otherwise, how could I know about Fellow Daoist Han from him? He admires Brother Han extremely and praised him quite a bit. I originally thought it was a bit exaggerated, but after seeing you, I somewhat agree. 」 The black-robed man said with a smile and looked Han Li up and down again.

「Fellow Daoist Tian, you flatter me. When I became acquainted with Fellow Daoist Fan, there was no third party present. Since you can say the name Fan Paozi, it shouldn't be fake. If I was negligent earlier, I hope you won't take offense. 」 After Han Li's thoughts turned rapidly, he softened his expression and gestured for the other party to sit down.

That Fan Paozi had clearly investigated him specifically after meeting him once.

「Haha, this is as it should be. If I suddenly saw a stranger come up to strike up a friendship, I would also be more cautious. 」 The black-robed man chuckled and sat cross-legged on a cushion opposite him without ceremony.

「However, this time I came to your door, I truly have something to ask of you, and I hope Brother Han can help me out. 」 The black-robed man stopped smiling and said.

「Fellow Daoist Tian, tell me about it first. 」 Han Li heard this and replied without any unusual expression.

「I won't hide it from you, Brother Han. Because of my actions at the auction earlier, the exit to this underground world and several teleportation halls have all become strict. With my own strength alone, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave this place in a short time. I overheard others talking outside that you auctioned for several cross-continental teleportation quotas. I wonder if you could take me along when you teleport away? If you are willing to help, I will definitely reward you heavily afterward, and the reward will definitely satisfy you. 」 The black-robed man was very frank, stating his situation and request in just a few sentences.

「You want to enter the cross-continental teleportation array! 」 Han Li blinked, somewhat surprised.

「That's right. Other than this method, I truly can't think of any other way to leave here as soon as possible. 」 The black-robed man gave a bitter laugh.

「Since you planned to take action at the auction, why didn't you consider the escape route? And where is your companion? Why haven't I seen him? 」 Han Li's expression shifted a few times before he asked.

「The reason I was trapped here is actually because the backup plan that guy set up had some accidents. As a result, he luckily escaped the underground world, but I was forced to stay behind. 」 The black-robed man looked somewhat embarrassed. 「So that's how it is. Encountering such things is indeed hard to predict. However, you publicly took action at the auction this time, which caused quite a big stir. The Helian Commercial Alliance has already issued a heavy reward for the two of you. Not only will they treat the snatched auction items as a reward, but they can also make three arbitrary requests to the Commercial Alliance afterward. Do you know about this, Fellow Daoist Tian? 」 Han Li said slowly.

「Naturally, I heard about it long ago. The Helian Commercial Alliance is truly generous. Hearing such a heavy reward, I almost wanted to go to their door and sell myself. 」 The black-robed man laughed wildly upon hearing this, appearing completely indifferent to it.

「Regardless of whether the Helian Commercial Alliance is sincere in offering such a heavy reward, it shows their desire to capture the two of you. I have no problem taking you away, but there is no wall in the world that doesn't leak wind. What if the news leaks out afterward and the Helian Commercial Alliance finds out? Although I am confident in my abilities, I definitely don't want to be targeted by a super force like the Helian Commercial Alliance. Moreover, although you are a friend of Brother Fan, I am still completely in the dark about your background. With such a big connection, I'm afraid it's hard for me to get involved. 」 Han Li pondered for a while before shaking his head and saying.

「So you are worried about being troubled afterward. You can rest assured about this. I can swear by my inner demon that I will never leak a single bit of Brother Han's assistance. Moreover, once this matter is resolved, I will not stay in the Spirit Realm; I will return directly to my clan. My clan will also make this matter public and take full responsibility, never involving Brother Han in the slightest. As for my background, since you are acquainted with Fan Paozi, don't you understand? 」 The black-robed man chuckled lightly.

「You are a member of the True Dragon Clan! 」 Han Li's expression changed.

「That's right. My body is indeed a True Dragon body. I didn't have time to explain this earlier, and I hope Brother Han won't blame me. 」 The black-robed man said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

「A member of the True Dragon Clan, no wonder you would forcibly snatch the 'Ancestral Dragon Blood'. 」 Han Li's expression was somewhat strange, and he muttered to himself, half-speaking to the black-robed man.

「Ancestral Dragon Blood! Hmph, do you really believe that what was snatched was this item? 」 The black-robed man revealed a hint of mockery upon hearing this.
