Chapter 56: Battle of the Light Orbs

"Yu Yu Zitong, I just want to remind you one last time. If I have an accident, you won't be any better off."

"You know, your current primordial spirit form won't last long. If I don't help you find a suitable physical body, I'm afraid it will really dissolve and dissipate. So, if there are any omissions or falsehoods in the cultivation technique, tell me now; it's not too late. I absolutely won't hold a grudge against you. I can also swear a poisonous oath in front of you."

Doctor Mo still wouldn't give up, still bitterly trying to enlighten the young man.

Han Li finally understood a thing or two. Doctor Mo was racking his brains to say these nonsense words to this person, just because he was afraid that this person named Yu Yu Zitong had played some tricks when passing on the cultivation technique, causing his technique to go wrong and bring disaster upon himself. That was why he was hesitant and looking back at this critical moment, trying to verify it again from the opponent's mouth before he could feel at ease.

"The soul-snatching method I passed to you absolutely doesn't have a single bit of tampering. If I deceive you, let my entire clan suffer heavenly condemnation, die a miserable death, and from now on, let the clan be destroyed and perish." Yu Yu Zitong didn't have the slightest pause and swore another poisonous oath decisively. It seemed he also knew Doctor Mo's concerns very well.

"Furthermore, after you use the 'Seven Ghosts Devouring the Soul Technique,' although it can allow you to possess a certain amount of magic power in a short time and use some simple spells, this is, after all, feeding ghosts with the body, using essence as the price. And can the essence remaining in your body still allow you to use this spell next time?" After swearing the poisonous oath, Yu Yu Zitong spoke again to block Doctor Mo's retreat.

After these words were spoken, the stone room fell into silence again, with only Doctor Mo's restless pacing in the room.

Han Li prayed secretly in his heart. He, who had never believed in gods, prayed to the passing immortals for the first time, hoping that the opponent would be afraid and give up his bad intentions toward him. Even though he knew it was absurd and somewhat self-deceiving, this was the only thing he could do at this time.

"Good, don't suspect the person you use, and don't use the person you suspect. Since I want to seek such a great benefit, taking a little risk is to be expected." Doctor Mo finally firmed his determination.

As soon as these words were spoken, Han Li felt desperate. If he had feelings on his face, his face must have been pale and full of dejection.

Yu Yu Zitong was very happy, and his words were full of excitement.

"It should have been like this from the beginning. Think about it, you were originally a mediocre person without spiritual roots, completely unable to step onto the path of immortality. But after the success of the method, it's different. Possessing this shell with spiritual roots, you can go and find a cultivation family or sect to rely on, and from then on, you might be able to escape birth, old age, sickness, and death, and the cycle of the five elements. At the very least, you'll live much longer than an ordinary person."

"Hehe, then I'll accept your auspicious words first. Don't worry, I, Mo Mo Juren, keep my word. As long as it succeeds, I'll immediately help you find a body with spiritual roots and won't treat you badly, Brother Yu." Doctor Mo was talked into a frenzy by Yu Yu Zitong's words. Thinking of the great prospects after the spell was cast, he felt a fire in his heart and became much more polite to Yu Yu Zitong, with an intention to win him over in his words.

"Then many thanks, Brother Mo. After success, I absolutely won't hide anything and will hand over all cultivation techniques to you, Brother." Yu Yu Zitong was also extremely cunning, following the pole to close the distance and climbing up to be brothers with the opponent.

Han Li heard it clearly and was so angry that smoke came out of his seven orifices. These two were truly colluding, shameless, actually treating his body as something in their pocket, not paying any attention to the owner's opinion. But now, he was indeed helpless.

Doctor Mo cast aside the doubts in his heart and made up his mind, not intending to delay any longer.

He didn't know where he took out several thin gold needles and skillfully inserted them into the secret acupoints behind his head, making his face glow and his spirit soar, having enough energy to cast the spell without making mistakes.

Then he walked to Han Li, helped his body up, set his posture, and sat cross-legged on the ground. He sat opposite him, crossing his hands and hugging his shoulders tightly.

Doctor Mo pinched a magic gesture, flicked his hand, and a red light shot out from his hand, hitting the pattern under Han Li. Instantly, the several pieces of jade around it lit up.

Then, low and deep chanting sounds slowly came from Doctor Mo's mouth, like a magic spell, making the listener feel drowsy and sleepy. Han Li's consciousness, following the chanting entering his ears, gradually blurred and became very sleepy.

"Bad." Han Li knew it was not good, knowing very well that this was what the opponent did deliberately, the prelude to occupying his physical body. He was very unwilling and didn't want to just sit and wait for death, so he tried his best to resist this sound.

But it was to no avail. If he could still control his body, he could use methods like biting his tongue or twisting his skin to stimulate himself and keep himself awake. But now, he could only passively endure it.

Under the powerful hypnosis of the spell, Han Li soon lost consciousness. Before fainting, he vaguely saw that Doctor Mo's originally handsome face looked ferocious and terrifying in the dim candlelight, no longer having the demeanor of a handsome man.

"You've become so ugly!" This was the last sentence Han Li wanted to say before falling asleep, and it was also a helpless curse without dirty words.

In the endless darkness, Han Li had a very strange nightmare.

In the dream, he was a green light orb the size of a fist, having his own little world, where he roamed freely and was incredibly happy.

But not long after, a yellow light orb suddenly broke in. This light orb was only the size of a thumb, several times smaller than Han Li's green orb, but it was aggressive and ill-intentioned. As soon as it saw Han Li, it rushed up viciously and split open a big mouth to bite Han Li. Han Li naturally wouldn't show weakness and also transformed a mouth to launch a fierce counterattack.

After only a few bites, the yellow light orb was easily swallowed by Han Li, relying on his large volume. He easily ended this battle.

The victorious Han Li was overjoyed, savoring the delicious taste of the spoils of war. At this time, another intruder came from outside. This time, the intruder was a green light orb like him, but its volume was a circle larger than Han Li's, only the light appeared dim and weak, not as dazzling as Han Li's.

This time, the enemy was clearly taken aback when he saw the green orb transformed by Han Li, pausing for a moment, seemingly somewhat hesitant.

But Han Li had just tasted the wonderful taste of swallowing other light orbs, so how could he let the opponent go? He didn't consider the difference in strength between the two sides and rushed straight up. Seeing this, the opponent had no choice but to come up as well, biting and tearing at each other.

The opponent's volume was a bit larger than Han Li's, but he was weak and powerless, clearly just an empty shell. He only held on for a short while longer than the yellow one before failing, and began to flee outward.

Han Li wouldn't let the opponent go and chased after him. But the opponent was truly cunning. Every time he was caught, he would detach the bitten part and continue to flee for his life. In this way, he actually managed to escape from this place, but his volume also shrank by a full third.

After experiencing two battles, this area continued to be occupied by Han Li alone. He looked forward to other intruders coming to his door, but it was a pity that he never waited for any others.

After a long time, he didn't care anymore and continued to float happily alone, and this went on for a long, long time, seemingly going on forever.
