Chapter 2480: Volume 11 True Immortal Descends Chapter 2441 The Change of the Human Race
"Fellow Daoist Han, you're really impatient—actually just directly consuming the Dao Fruit like that. //Visit to download txt novel//※※" Elder Jin took a moment to come back to his senses, then said with a mix of laughter and exasperation.
"For such rare heavenly and earthly spiritual treasures, it's naturally best to consume them early for safety, and also to avoid provoking envy from others." Han Li replied with a slight smile.
"Since Fellow Daoist had already planned this, we naturally have nothing more to say. However, if the Guangling Dao Fruit were combined with a few other spiritual substances, the effect would likely be even better." Elder Jin sighed softly.
"A ten-thousand-year-old Guangling Dao Body should be sufficient for our cultivation. If even then we cannot advance further, then having more time with this Dao Body would be of little use. Regardless, junior Han Li this time has incurred a great favor from your noble clan, and if the opportunity arises in the future, I will surely repay it. Others are approaching now, so I will not linger." Han Li first shook his head, then his expression turned solemn as he clasped his fists toward the dragon clan elders, and with a flash of evasion light, he shot straight into the sky as a streak of green light.
After a few flashes, the evasion light completely vanished at the horizon's end.
"No wonder he's a powerhouse who has slain an immortal—should he truly ascend to the immortal realm in the future, he will undoubtedly become a formidable presence not to be underestimated." The white-robed dragon clan man praised repeatedly.
"Indeed, but only if this child can truly ascend to the immortal realm." Elder Jin gazed in the direction Han Li disappeared, his expression suddenly turning somewhat strange.
"What does the Grand Elder mean by that? Given his current strength, if he were to consume the Guangling Dao Fruit again, he should have a decent chance of passing the ascension tribulation." Another dragon clan elder, dressed in green robes and appearing youthful, expressed surprise.
Several other dragon clan elders likewise showed expressions of astonishment.
"What do you think of this person's divine sense?" Elder Jin stroked his beard, did not answer directly, but instead smiled and asked.
"Extremely strong—almost among the top two in divine sense among those participating in this Dao Fruit gathering." The white-robed dragon clan elder pondered briefly, then answered firmly.
"Even more so—if I'm not mistaken, the divine sense power he has displayed before us is merely a small fraction of his true divine sense." Elder Jin chuckled.
"How is that possible! If that's the case, then our divine sense power cannot even compare to his. Elder Jin, did you secretly use that secret technique to probe him?" Someone immediately exclaimed in shock.
"Indeed so. Otherwise, how could I have said such a thing? It's truly a pity—originally, the stronger one's divine sense, the more beneficial it should be for passing the ascension tribulation, but his divine sense is too overwhelming. It has even exceeded the limit that beings in our realm can withstand. Through my innate secret technique, I discovered that although his divine sense appears strong now, its foundation is riddled with hidden dangers. Without proper countermeasures, I fear that in a few hundred years, even his life may not be preserved." Elder Jin said slowly.
"What? Such a thing actually exists?"
"I wonder if this person himself is aware of the hidden danger in his divine sense?"
"Even if he doesn't know now, I believe he will eventually realize it after some time—but by then, it may already be too late."
"Exactly—matters involving divine sense are the most troublesome, and even our dragon clan has no good countermeasures. Otherwise, Elder Jin would have just warned him directly."
After the dragon clan elders expressed their shock, they began to discuss animatedly.
At that moment, a tearing sound echoed from the distant horizon—another white rainbow, resembling a flood dragon, appeared out of thin air and shot toward the high platform.
With a loud boom, a handsome young man in white robes and a jade belt, wearing a golden crown, appeared not far from the platform, clasping his hands downward and saying:
"Xuanyuan Jie of the Xuanyuan Clan pays respects to all fellow Daoists of the dragon clan!"
"What? A person from the ancient Xuanyuan Clan!"
Upon hearing this, the dragon clan elders on the high platform were greatly startled, their eyes snapping to the youth—all attention shifted from Han Li to the boy in an instant.
……
One year later. Han Li successfully returned to the human race's Boundless Sea, and upon returning to Qingyuan Palace, he briefly gathered with Nangong Wan, Bing Feng, and others, explained a few extremely important matters, then immediately entered the heavily restricted secret chamber to begin closed-door cultivation.
This time, Han Li's seclusion was no ordinary affair—after entering, he never emerged again.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, two hundred years had gone by.
During this period, the human race underwent earth-shattering, astonishing changes.
First, Bing Po the Immortal Maiden reappeared among the human race years later as a Great Perfection Elder Ancestor, causing a sensation throughout the entire race.
Then, the Wood Clan and other nearby small tribes largely expressed their willingness to submit to human leadership.
The Night Rakshasa tribes, who had long been at odds with humans, suddenly agreed to abandon their original habitats and enter the barbaric wilderness—no one knows where they migrated to on the continent.
Seeing this, the human race naturally took no politeness and occupied most of the vacated areas.
Following this, many non-human races on the Wind Element Continent began sending friendly signals to humans, and even the Flying Spirit Clan directly declared their willingness to form an alliance with humans.
In less than a hundred years, the human race seemed to have suddenly leapt to become one of the most notable races on the Wind Element Continent.
Within the human race, at some point, top-tier cultivation techniques and various astonishing divine abilities and secret techniques began to spread.
Additionally, some heavenly treasures and earthly riches that had only existed in rumors began to appear frequently in human territories.
Under this stimulation, many human cultivators who had long been stuck at bottlenecks rapidly broke through in a short time.
Among newly cultivated juniors, some with special physiques emerged as cultivation geniuses, prompting many factions to fiercely compete for them.
Although the demon race, long-time allies of the human race, did not undergo earth-shaking changes like humans, their own strength expanded rapidly like a blowing breeze.
After occupying some areas neglected by humans, their controlled territory expanded nearly several times over.
Some newly emerged cultivation techniques, divine abilities, elixirs, and treasures also flowed in considerable numbers from humans into the demon race, benefiting them greatly as well.
And if someone with intent carefully investigated, they would find that all these changes originated from the same place.
Whether top-tier cultivation techniques and divine abilities, or those extremely rare treasures and elixirs, they all first quietly flowed out from the vicinity of Qingyuan Palace, then appeared unnoticed in other regions, causing both races to undergo terrifyingly rapid transformation.
……
After another two hundred years, at the edge of the famous sealing ground in the demon realm, a squad of demon realm guards drove several black flying carts pulled by double-headed demon wolves, patrolling swiftly at low altitude.
Just as this squad had departed, the space where they had been flickered faintly, and a blurred blue humanoid figure silently appeared.
He merely glanced back in the direction the guards had gone, then turned his gaze toward the depths of the seal.
"I didn't expect this God-Refining Technique to be so troublesome—even the demon light and Fire Beard Child are helpless. Unfortunately, the memory obtained from searching the soul of another immortal is only a fragment; otherwise, I wouldn't have needed to make this trip." The blue figure muttered a few words, then moved and silently vanished again.
One day later, the blue figure reappeared at a hidden location within the sealing ground.
Not far away stood an unusually tall, blood-red altar, bearing a black bowl, with eight bronze giant pillars standing around it.
"Fellow Daoist Han, you've come as promised. It seems you no longer doubt the drawbacks of the God-Refining Technique." As the blue figure approached the altar, the black bowl trembled slightly, and a faint male voice emerged from within.
The blue figure was none other than Han Li, who had emerged from two hundred years of closed-door cultivation, discovered problems in his divine sense sea, helplessly left Qingyuan Palace in secret, and returned to the demon realm.
"Senior, did you previously say the agreement would not change?" Han Li stared at the bowl on the altar, expressionless, and asked.
"With my status, how could I possibly go back on my word?" The male voice said without hesitation.
"Since that's the case, I accept your original condition. Senior, please truthfully transmit the cultivation method for the third layer of the God-Refining Technique." Han Li pondered briefly, then spoke slowly.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Han doing this is indeed wise. After all, only by cultivating to the third layer can you possibly have time to ascend to the immortal realm; otherwise, everything is just idle talk." The voice chuckled, sounding quite pleased.
Then, a humming sound came from the bowl, a white light shot out, flashed once, and arrived before Han Li.
It was a palm-sized jade talisman, its surface inscribed with countless gold and silver runes, while specks of five-colored starlight drifted nearby, appearing profoundly mysterious.
"This is the treasure talisman I have that can directly connect to the realm of immortals. As for its sacrificial refinement and activation method, it is as follows..." The man said, his voice unconsciously sinking lower as he spoke.
Half a day later, a streak of green light shot out from beneath a certain lake at the center of the sealed area. After a few flashes, it shot off in a determined direction.
Amid the green light, Han Li stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his face full of contemplative expression, as if he had been pondering something all along.
Three hundred years later, in a certain hall of the Qingyuan Palace, a beautiful woman in white robes stood respectfully before the seated Han Li, saying something.
She then slightly bowed her body, flipped her palm over, and actually produced a milky-white storage bracelet, which she presented with both hands to Han Li.
"Bai Guo'er, well done. I never expected that your journey this time would yield such results—you have not only cultivated your Cold Soul Divine Ability to such a realm, but also found so many Haoyin Stones. Truly no small feat." Han Li swept his divine sense over the storage bracelet in his hand, then glanced at his disciple before him, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
