Chapter 432
Han Li, while pondering the information he had just learned, secretly wondered whether he should really wade into this muddy water.
Although he didn't know what he would encounter ahead, this strange palace floating in the air looked like a place similar to the "Blood Trial" of the Yue Kingdom. They were all built by ancient cultivators from the barbarian era.
Although there were quite a few treasures inside, there must be no lack of dangers.
And the inexplicable expression of Ancestor Ji Yin just now made him feel cold in his heart. Don't know what kind of ghost ideas the other party had?
Perhaps not caring about the matters here and exiting immediately was the wise move!
However, listening to these old monsters, this place only opened once every three hundred years. If he retreated now, he might never have this opportunity again.
This made Han Li hesitate again.
Just when Han Li couldn't make up his mind, a voice transmission came to his ears from Xuan Gu Shangren.
"Kid. What do you have that Ji Yin is determined to get? Otherwise, why would he show such an expression to you. If I'm not mistaken, kid, you're probably going to have bad luck!" Xuan Gu's voice was plain and simple, but clearly filled with mockery.
Hearing this, Han Li snorted coldly in his heart and immediately replied:
"If this Island Master of Ji Yin knew that you were here, I think he would be even happier. He would probably have a good chat with senior about the master-disciple relationship."
"You dare to threaten me?" Xuan Gu Shangren, hearing Han Li's words, turned gloomy.
"Don't dare! With senior's status and means, how would this junior dare to do so? However, senior had better not gloat. Otherwise, in a situation where this junior's life is at stake, I might say something out of turn and involve senior." Han Li said with an expressionless face.
Xuan Gu didn't make a sound for a long time.
Just when Han Li thought the other party was angry from embarrassment and wouldn't bother him anymore.
A cold voice transmission suddenly came to his ears. The content made him stunned at first, but then excited.
"Do you want to form a Nascent Soul?"
"Senior, what does this mean?" Han Li suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked calmly.
"Hehe, what does it mean? My words are very simple. I know of something that can double the chances of condensing a Nascent Soul. This object is in this Void Heaven Palace. Besides this, there is no other way. If you are willing to join forces with me and take this opportunity to eliminate Ji Yin, that rebellious disciple, I will point out the location of this object to you and tell you the method to obtain it one by one. How about this condition? You must know, if it weren't for the fact that I cultivate the Demon Ghost Path and have no use for this object, I wouldn't let it go to you no matter what. And even if you don't want to join forces with me, Ji Yin looks like he will take the initiative to find you anyway. By then, hehe..." Xuan Gu spoke slowly with a tone that was both tempting and threatening, and didn't hide his murderous intent toward Ancestor Ji Yin at all.
Han Li, after hearing this, didn't agree or refuse immediately, but sat there silently. His brows were slightly furrowed, full of pondering.
Xuan Gu Shangren, who had transformed into a young man, was also calm, not in a hurry.
He believed that as long as it was a Core Formation cultivator, no one could refuse such a great temptation. He just needed to wait quietly for Han Li's reply.
At this time, Ancestor Ji Yin and Wu Chou flew to an empty pillar next to the elderly Confucian scholar and chatted with the scholar one sentence after another, and occasionally said a word or two to the Wen-surname beautiful woman.
But the woman, after wiping her sword, closed her eyes to rest, completely ignoring the conversation between the two, looking like she didn't want to pay attention.
Ancestor Ji Yin received such cold treatment, but didn't get angry or reveal an awkward expression, still smiling and talking, clearly having deep scheming.
Han Li looked at all this, and became even more wary of Ancestor Ji Yin.
This person was not only high in cultivation, but his scheming seemed to be far beyond ordinary people.
If it weren't for this, how could Xuan Gu old demon have fallen into his hands back then, being harmed into turning to the Ghost Demon Path, and even blocking his path to reincarnation completely.
Making Xuan Gu hate him so much that he wanted to smash his bones and scatter his ashes!
However, regardless of the grudge between Xuan Gu old demon and Ji Yin. Now he had actually been targeted by this person.
This was truly bad news for him!
Although it couldn't be said that he didn't even have a chance to escape in front of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator now.
But if he were to be an enemy head-on, the possibility of successfully slipping away was still pitifully low.
After all, the cultivation of the early Core Formation stage and the Nascent Soul stage were truly too far apart.
Even if his magic treasures and Gold-Devouring Beetles were powerful, he estimated that he would only be killed by the other party.
After pondering this way, Han Li finally asked Xuan Gu a question via voice transmission:
"Give me a brief introduction to the thing you mentioned. I can't just listen to your words and immediately fight a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, right?" Han Li said with moving lips.
"Of course, as long as you are willing to join forces with me, I will reveal one or two even if you don't ask about this matter." Xuan Gu's face revealed a trace of joy, and then he secretly transmitted back.
Han Li, hearing this, didn't say anything more.
He simply closed his eyes and sat there, pretending to be practicing Qi.
"That thing is called 'Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng,' and it is an object formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Although its main body is just a spiritual herb, its spirituality is sufficient. From the day of its birth, it will transform into various animals or insects, can move on its own, and is very good at drilling into soil and wood. Many years ago, I saw this object in this Void Heaven Palace. It's just that my cultivation was too low at the time, and I really didn't have a suitable magic tool to capture it. So I had to give up! And the second time I came, I had already cultivated into a Nascent Soul, so naturally I wouldn't spend effort on this. Now, I have to let you benefit." Xuan Gu said somewhat reluctantly.
"Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng?" Han Li gasped after hearing this.
He had long heard of this object.
This was a legendary fairy herb!
Although he had seen the name of this object in many spiritual herb books. But Han Li always thought that if such a thing had really appeared in the mortal world, it would have been in the barbarian era.
Could it be that this Void Heaven Palace still had this object?
However, speaking of which.
It was not impossible to find one or two such fairy herbs in these ancient cultivator ruins.
But he was hearing for the first time that this Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng was of great use for condensing a Nascent Soul. He was truly hearing it for the first time.
The specific uses of this object in those books were all vague, and didn't mention this use at all.
The old demon wouldn't be using lies to fool him just to get him to join forces, right? Han Li began to doubt.
Perhaps guessing Han Li's suspicion, Xuan Gu then continued:
"Rest assured! Later when breaking through the barrier, in the place of the second barrier, I will assist you in capturing this object first. Then after solving that rebellious disciple, I will give you a secret recipe for the spiritual medicine. At that time, you just need to follow the steps on the recipe one by one, and you can fully utilize this object to increase your chances of condensing a Nascent Soul by quite a bit. However, this time coming to the Void Heaven Palace, I also have something that I am determined to get, which will be of great use to my future cultivation. At that time, you will also help me out. Only in this way can my chances be greater." Xuan Gu took the initiative to resolve Han Li's suspicion, and then proposed another condition that wasn't too light or too heavy, dispelling most of Han Li's suspicion.
"Alright! If you really have the confidence to kill Ji Yin, then helping you out is not impossible." Han Li finally agreed, temporarily forming an alliance with Xuan Gu.
It was just that this alliance was extremely fragile, and it was hard to say how long it could be supported.
He estimated that the moment Ancestor Ji Yin was destroyed would be the moment their relationship broke down.
But Han Li still breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
Listening to Xuan Gu old demon's tone, he had actually come to this Void Heaven Palace more than once. Having such an old horse that knew the way as an ally was much better than the situation of being completely in the dark just now.
At the very least, he could learn some basic information about the Void Heaven Palace from the other party, and before dealing with Ancestor Ji Yin, the other party was still trustworthy.
In this way, after Han Li and the other party reached a verbal agreement, he began to probe the general situation of the Void Heaven Palace from the other party's mouth.
After secretly discussing with the Xuan Gu old demon for most of the day, Han Li's expression became not very good.
It seemed that opportunity and danger always coexisted, and this trip to the Void Heaven Palace was truly full of dangers.
He couldn't help but sigh lightly.
Then he truly sank his mind and began to practice Qi and meditate.
In this hall, Han Li didn't have to worry about anyone suddenly sneak-attacking him.
Because he had already tried, except for some small spells like levitation, if he used more than a certain amount of magic power, his magic power would immediately leak out, and he would be unable to cast spells successfully.
Even the magic treasures in his body were all unable to be released like dead objects here.
The restrictions here were truly miraculous.
Afterward, the number of cultivators in the hall increased more and more in the following five or six days, actually gradually reaching over a hundred people.
The tops of the jade pillars were already full of cultivators.
Those cultivators who arrived a step late had to find a place on the ground of the hall to rest for a while.
