Chapter 515: Illusion Flame Moth
Han Li extended two fingers, nimbly pinched one of the spheres, and brought it before his eyes.
After gazing at it for a moment, Han Li put the sphere back and slowly closed his eyes.
In his mind, however, a picture from the jade slip emerged.
A fist-sized sphere emitting five-colored light, with a dozen or so smaller spheres floating around it.
And these spheres were exactly the same as the one in Han Li's hand.
Han Li was no stranger to the sphere appearing in the five-colored light; it was the Heaven-Mending Pill that had flown out of the Void Heaven Cauldron.
Such a bizarre picture was one of the few in the jade slip without any explanation, appearing extremely mysterious.
When Han Li swept through this scene in the jade slip at the Inch Gold Pavilion, he was naturally extremely shocked.
This was also the reason why he didn't hesitate to gift an extra Talisman Treasure to exchange for this jade slip from Gu Yu.
Otherwise, according to his original intention, at most gifting a bottle of pills would have sufficed.
Besides this one, the other few pictures in the jade slip without written explanations also depicted extremely strange things.
There were items resembling Magic Tools and Magic Treasures, as well as existences like monster beasts and ghosts. But they were all things Han Li had never seen before.
Associating this with the fact that the Heaven-Mending Pill was one of them, these bizarre pictures were clearly of great importance.
Han Li carefully engraved these images into his mind, thinking that perhaps he would have the opportunity to see other things in the future!
At that time, he would naturally treat them solemnly.
However, at this moment, looking at the spheres in the box, Han Li was truly somewhat troubled.
There was no doubt that these five-colored spheres must be greatly related to the Heaven-Mending Pill, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared in the same picture.
Considering that these spheres were refined by extracting them from the bones of Extreme Mystery, and Extreme Mystery possessed the Blood Jade Spider.
Could it be that the other rebellious disciple of the Xuan Gu Old Demon had also entered the Void Heaven Cauldron that year and obtained a Heaven-Mending Pill to take?
Only then could it explain why the bones turned five-colored after death, and why these spheres condensed after he burned them with fire.
Judging from Han Li's experience of taking so many pills, it was highly likely that the medicinal properties of the Heaven-Mending Pill had not been refined, or the medicinal properties were too fierce, requiring re-condensation and washing of the pill properties after taking it.
From this point of view, perhaps these spheres were the true Heaven-Mending Pills!
Otherwise, why would they appear so solemnly in the picture!
And the matter of using a cultivator's body as a pill furnace to gestate pills, although rarely used in the current cultivation world, was something Han Li had witnessed with his own eyes.
The "Blood-Condensing Five-Element Pill" of the Black Fiend Sect was one such extremely bloody and overbearing method.
However, all of this was just Han Li's wishful thinking. He naturally wouldn't rashly take them immediately.
So, after thinking about it, he still walked out of the secret room and headed toward the insect room.
The current insect room was not as simple as it was in the Star City, but had been opened by Han Li into five stone rooms of varying sizes.
Two of them were used to cultivate two different batches of Gold-Devouring Insects.
One batch was the tens of thousands of Gold-Devouring Insects that had displayed their might in the Void Heaven Hall and devoured many Iron Fire Ants. The other batch was naturally the nearly one thousand carefully selected insects brought from the Star City cave dwelling. Han Li intentionally placed these two batches separately.
Speaking of which, I don't know if it was because they devoured too many Iron Fire Ants.
Those tens of thousands of Gold-Devouring Insects seemed to have begun to evolve and reproduce again, and some had already begun to devour each other. This was an unexpected surprise for Han Li.
The remaining stone rooms housed his only remaining Blood Jade Spider, the Soul-Crying Beast that slept soundly all day, and the last one contained the Golden Silk Silkworms Han Li had collected in the Void Heaven Hall.
The Blood Jade Spider goes without saying. But the Soul-Crying Beast! Although Han Li had the Soul-Crying Pearl in his hand, he was always somewhat uneasy in his heart and didn't dare to easily refine this pearl. So he left it aside and didn't deal with it for the time being.
Anyway, the beast was quite normal now.
Golden Silk Silkworms! When Han Li collected them, it wasn't a whim, but these monster insects were also rare insects on the list.
Although their ranking was very low, even far inferior to the Blood Jade Spider, only at the end of the list, these Golden Silk Silkworms were rare monster beasts that underwent secondary evolution.
As long as they were given enough time, they had a great possibility of evolving into a type of flying insect called the "Illusion Flame Moth". This type of flying insect was not comparable to the Golden Silk Silkworm level, but was a rare insect ranked seventeenth on the list, possessing the ability to transform naturally.
How powerful this ability was, the information said vaguely; it seemed that this insect was rarely seen even in ancient times, and there was no specific explanation.
However, with the Illusion Flame Moth ranked so high, even if there were some inaccuracies, it was absolutely extraordinary.
It was because of this that Han Li, disregarding the surprised gazes of other old monsters, collected these half-dead Golden Silk Silkworms.
However, the Golden Silk Silkworms had been unhesitatingly abandoned by Wan Wan Tianming at the beginning. They were truly lacking in vitality, looking as if they couldn't survive much longer.
After Han Li obtained them, he kept feeding them rare spirit herbs like "Spirit-Feeding Pills", but they could only barely maintain their last breath, and the situation was getting worse and worse.
Seeing this, Han Li was also at his wit's end!
Now Han Li had an idea, so he went directly to the Golden Silk Silkworm insect room.
Through the window where restrictions were applied, Han Li stretched his head to look, and his eyebrows couldn't help but frown tightly.
At this moment, these emerald-green giant silkworms were lying on the floor of the room, all motionless as if they were dead objects.
If it weren't for the fact that Han Li could still sense the faint spiritual energy on them, he would have truly thought they had already breathed their last.
Han Li walked in without hesitation.
After circling these rare insects a few times, he picked out a pair of Golden Silk Silkworms, male and female, that were the largest in size and looked slightly more energetic.
Then he took out the jade box from his bosom and fed the two five-colored spheres into the mouths of this pair of rare insects, before leaving the insect room again.
Han Li's idea was very simple!
Since these insects didn't seem to have any salvation, it was better to use them to test the medicinal effects of the spheres.
The reputation of the Heaven-Mending Pill was so great, its medicinal properties should be miraculous.
If these spheres were truly the Heaven-Mending Pills he envisioned, then even if they couldn't save these Golden Silk Silkworms, they wouldn't make the situation worse.
Of course, if the Golden Silk Silkworms had any adverse reactions after taking them, Han Li would naturally not pay any more attention to these spheres.
During the following days, he also dealt with the special existence of the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng.
This was his important reliance for condensing the Nascent Soul in the future, so he had to take care of it carefully no matter what.
In the center of the herb garden, Han Li specially marked out a small piece of land.
Then he used several sets of restriction formation flags he had refined to surround this piece of land tightly, and turned the nearby ground into something like gold and stone.
Only then did he feel at ease and transplant the main body of the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng into it.
As for the incarnation of the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng, the white rabbit trapped in a jade box, Han Li didn't intend to trap it for a long time.
After all, even if it was an incarnation, if it was trapped for a long time, it might affect the main body of the spirit ginseng.
Han Li brought a jade box covered with various talismans to the side of the spirit ginseng main body in the herb garden, and then tore off the talismans on the box.
As a result, before Han Li could open the lid, a white light flew out of the box, circled once, and then threw itself into the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng nearby, never to be seen again.
Seeing this scene, Han Li smiled knowingly.
It seemed that after being caught once, this white rabbit incarnation was truly terrified, and its courage was getting smaller and smaller.
However, looking at the main body of the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng, Han Li had been pondering. I wonder what miraculous effect the green liquid in his small bottle could have on this Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng.
This kind of thought had existed since he obtained this spirit ginseng.
However, there were many places that needed green liquid now. This test was not urgent for a moment.
Furthermore, what if the green liquid was used, causing this Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng to suddenly increase in ability and produce some mutation, allowing it to escape from the formation?
Wouldn't that make him regret it to death.
This was not an ordinary plant, but a legendary immortal spirit herb that had an incarnation. It was better to be careful!
Holding this thought, Han Li ignored it as soon as he settled the Nine-Curved Spirit Ginseng.
As for the green liquid produced, Han Li used it all to catalyze the Soul-Nourishing Wood among the three great divine woods.
Although it was only a small section of the root, Han Li believed that as long as he was given a few years, a ten-thousand-year Soul-Nourishing Wood would reappear.
Originally, Han Li intended to study the Void Heaven Cauldron to see if there were any other ways to open it.
But a small section of rib bone he accidentally found from his storage bag made Han Li somewhat interested for the time being.
Recalling that this rib bone could remain intact under the terrifying Repairing Saint Fire, it was definitely extraordinary.
Han Li lay on the bed in the bedroom, holding the crystal-clear object in his hand, staring at it constantly with curiosity.
