Chapter 487: Treasure Cauldron Reappears

"Han boy, don't you want to condense the Nascent Soul? The greatest efficacy of the Heaven-Mending Pill is actually to refine the innate spiritual roots of Core Formation stage cultivators, making it easier for cultivators to advance to the Nascent Soul stage." Xuan Gu suddenly said coldly. (Web)

"Refine spiritual roots? You treat me like a three-year-old child, where in the world is there such an heaven-defying spirit medicine?" Han Li was silent for a while before turning around and saying with narrowed eyes.

His face was full of disbelief!

"Hehe, believe it or not? However, do you really think I have lived for so long in vain? Back then, I once captured a Star Palace elder-level cultivator alive and used the method of searching souls and refining spirits to force this information out. As for the rumors outside that this pill can break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul stage and greatly increase magic power and lifespan, they are completely false. Because a certain Palace Master of the Star Palace in the past once took out a Heaven-Mending Pill and took it himself."

"And you already have the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng. If the efficacy of the Heaven-Mending Pill is added, it can make the probability of condensing the Nascent Soul reach three or four percent. If you miss this treasure-taking opportunity, even if you get the Heaven-Mending Pill three hundred years later, there will be no chance for the spirit pill to exert its efficacy. Because the Heaven-Mending Pill is not so easy to refine. The entire spiritual root refining process takes at least a hundred years to truly transform completely. You have to think clearly for yourself." Xuan Gu said with a look of indifference, not in a hurry.

"The probability of condensing the Nascent Soul is three or four percent?" Han Li was moved.

Seeming to see Han Li's thoughts, Xuan Gu smiled and said again:

"As for the commotion you mentioned being too big when taking the treasure, just rest assured. Even if the world collapses inside this high platform, people outside, unless they see the abnormality with their own eyes, will not be able to sense any abnormality with their divine sense. Otherwise, why do you think the 'Heavenly Gang Shield,' which was famous in the ancient era, has such a great reputation! And if you are worried that one Blood Jade Spider has no way to take the treasure successfully, don't forget. I am Master Ji Yin's master, and I have switched to the demon-ghost path. How could I not know the refining corpse technique that he knows?"

After saying these words, Xuan Gu opened his mouth without hesitation and spat out a mass of fluorescent light, which shot toward the corpse of the Blood Jade Spider on the altar.

In the blink of an eye, the light group transformed into a large mass of pale green thick fog and covered the corpse. The green fog was quickly absorbed by the corpse without a trace.

A moment later, the two halves of the corpse, which hadn't moved at all, joined together on their own. Then, green light flourished at the broken section, and a complete Blood Jade Spider stood up shakily.

Looking at the scene before him, Han Li's expression was still normal, but he was terrified in his heart.

The cultivation world is truly full of wonders! There really is such a bizarre spell that can immediately turn a corpse into a refined corpse.

"Is my refining corpse technique okay? Although this spider refined corpse can only be active for a short time, and its ability is far lower than when it was alive, it is completely fine to cooperate with your Blood Jade Spider to take the treasure. After taking out the treasure, I don't want a single Heaven-Mending Pill, you can have them all. And half of the ancient treasures in the Heaven Void Cauldron can also be divided to you, but the Heaven Void Cauldron must be given to me. What do you think of this deal?" Xuan Gu manipulated the spider refined corpse to walk a few steps, then turned his face to look at Han Li, saying confidently.

"Humph, even if you say the flowers are falling from the sky, how do I know that once the Heaven Void Cauldron is taken out, you won't turn your face immediately. After all, in terms of cultivation and technique, you are a notch higher than me." Han Li pondered for a while, and after the light flashed in his eyes, he said impolitely.

Xuan Gu heard this and was secretly overjoyed in his heart.

Although Han Li's tone was somewhat stiff, it was clearly a compromise and agreement of seven or eight points. He just wanted to bargain for more.

Therefore, Xuan Gu smiled and hurriedly said:

"Han Li, you are too humble! If I'm not wrong. If the two of us really fight, the outcome will be five-five. It will never be decided in a moment. At a time when others may return at any time, do you think I would be unwise to entangle with you in a fierce battle? Of course, as long as you agree to help me take the treasure, I will hand over the pill recipe for the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng to you now, as a guarantee of my sincerity in joining forces with you." Xuan Gu said this, and without hesitation, flipped his palm, and an antique white jade slip appeared in his hand, then threw it toward Han Li.

Han Li saw the jade slip shooting over and beckoned lightly.

As a result, green light flashed, and the white jade slip was wrapped in a mass of green hazy light, falling lightly into his palm.

Xuan Gu saw Han Li's cautious appearance and just smiled lightly, without saying anything.

And Han Li had already used his divine sense to scan the contents of the jade slip quickly.

Although he didn't have time to carefully ponder the authenticity of the recipe, it didn't look like a forgery at all. It did indeed mention the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng. And there were two or three auxiliary medicinal materials that Han Li had never heard of.

Han Li pondered for a while, then put the jade slip into his storage bag without politeness, then raised his head and stared at Xuan Gu calmly:

"Good, I agree to this deal. Start taking the treasure immediately!"

Since he decided to take action, Han Li wouldn't drag his feet and let the danger become greater.

He slapped a certain spirit beast bag on his waist, and white light flew out, and another Blood Jade Spider appeared before his eyes ferociously.

"Very good, that's right." Xuan Gu revealed a look of excitement on his face, and walked to the high platform to order the spider refined corpse to spit out the spider web first, preparing to pull it up.

Han Li on this side also calmly ordered the Blood Jade Spider to cover the Heaven Void Cauldron under the cave entrance with a milky white spider web.

"Hurry up. We won't have much time. Although I am limited by the cultivation technique and cannot cast the Berserk Technique, other auxiliary spells can still be cast, but the effect is slightly worse." Xuan Gu cast several spells of different colors onto Han Li's Blood Jade Spider in one breath, and explained to Han Li.

Immediately, this last Blood Jade Spider entered a berserk state, and besides the bright red color, black and green lights intertwined and flowed on its body, looking somewhat bizarre.

Han Li frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. After all, without these auxiliary spells, the Blood Jade Spider would indeed not be able to pull the Heaven Void Cauldron.

Then, the Blood Jade Spider and the spider refined corpse exerted force simultaneously, starting to pull outward.

The same high platform shook violently, and blue light sprayed out.

This time, without the old man in the Confucian robe casting spells to protect them, they naturally had to rely on themselves.

Han Li hurriedly released a fire-attribute light shield outside his body, and opened the power of the Spirit Rhinoceros Pendant to the maximum, the whole person as if bathing in a mass of scorching white light. And in the innermost layer. He also opened the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword Shield.

A layer of green, sparkling light shield appeared, sticking tightly to Han Li's body. And in the green thorns, there were some pale golden colors mixed in.

And Xuan Gu's body was also full of green Qi, and thick ghost Qi wrapped him tightly.

Not bad!

Although under the fierce attack of the blue cold air, Han Li still felt bone-chilling cold. But by running the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword Technique with all his strength in his body, he could barely support himself without being frostbitten.

This made Han Li deeply realize the huge difference between Nascent Soul stage cultivators and Core Formation stage cultivators. Back then, that old man in the Confucian robe just casually cast a light shield, and all the cold air was repelled outside, without a trace of coldness.

Han Li sighed, and put most of his mind on the cave entrance, and another small part naturally carefully guarded against Xuan Gu.

After all, no matter how flowery the old demon's words were, he still had to be twelve times careful.

Under the strenuous pulling of the Blood Jade Spider, the Heaven Void Cauldron repeated the scene of being pulled up last time. It was pulled up bit by bit.

For some reason, compared to last time, Han Li always felt that the time to take the treasure this time was extremely long. Every inch of the spider silk's movement seemed to take a lot of time.

This made Han Li feel anxious in his heart. If several old monsters returned early, that would be terrible.

The Xuan Gu in the green Qi seemed to be extremely calm. However, as the blue light at the cave entrance became more dazzling, the fanaticism in his eyes gradually shot out.

Under the gaze of the two, time passed slowly, and the Heaven Void Cauldron was pulled higher and higher.

It was unknown where Man Man Huzi led that group of old monsters, but they really hadn't returned to this place until now. This made Han Li secretly rejoice while being terrified.

Suddenly, Han Li and Xuan Gu, who were staring at the cave entrance, flew into the sky simultaneously.

Then, the top of the blue flames finally revealed the cave entrance, and the giant blue flower bloomed again, turning the entire high platform into a world of blue ice.

Han Li stared at the blurry black shadow in the blue ice flames, his heart beating wildly.

Last time the treasure cauldron revealed itself at the cave entrance, he was paying attention to the movements of several old monsters, and didn't carefully observe this treasure cauldron. Only now did he have the opportunity to truly witness the true face of this cauldron.

Although it only revealed a small half, the appearance of the Heaven Void Cauldron had already been fully collected in Han Li's eyes.
