Chapter 615
"According to Brother's words, are Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment disciples competing together at this assembly?" Han Li frowned and suddenly asked.
"Correct. The Sword Trial Assembly doesn't make any distinction between Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment disciples; they are put together for the competition," Brother Wang nodded and said.
"In this way, isn't it a bit unfair to Qi Condensation disciples?" Han Li was stunned and didn't quite believe it.
"The Sword Trial Assembly was originally intended to compare the cultivation of the three sects' Foundation Establishment disciples; the Qi Condensation ones are just incidental. However, in order not to dampen the enthusiasm of low-tier disciples, there is no saying that outer disciples and low-tier disciples are prohibited from participating. But ever since this assembly was held, although it is impossible for Qi Condensation disciples to win the championship, it is not uncommon for them to defeat Foundation Establishment opponents and break into the top ten," Brother Wang smiled slightly, saying to Han Li with deep meaning.
"Qi Condensation disciples breaking into the top ten? Could it be that these people's magic tools are very powerful?" Han Li understood a bit when he heard this.
"Hehe! Junior Brother is a clever person; I don't need to say it for you to know the key. Among the three sects, which Core Formation expert doesn't have descendants? Sometimes, in order to let close people get a good ranking, they naturally take out many magic tools with strange power to give to these people. In this way, some Foundation Establishment cultivators who don't have suitable magic tools encounter these people, and it's not strange for them to lose," Kui Cai Huan shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Han Li's look of doubt became even stronger.
"Listening to the two brothers, could it be that there are other benefits for getting a good ranking at the assembly? Otherwise, why would these people bother to participate in this assembly just for magic tools?" Han Li pondered for a moment and asked.
"Junior Brother's words are very true. I wanted to say this even if you didn't ask. In fact, what attracts us most to the Sword Trial Assembly is not the dead objects rewarded at the front, but the opportunity to have our eyes washed with spirit water after entering the top ten. It is said that using the first drop of alcohol liquid flowing from the Holy Tree plus other precious materials, one can prepare the legendary Clear Spirit Water. If you use this water to wipe your eyes, although it cannot increase any cultivation, it can allow your eyes to see through mist and stone from now on, possessing some unimaginable miraculous divine abilities. This is the reason why they fight for their lives to enter the top ten. If there were no such benefits, just relying on some top-tier magic tools, for some disciples from large families or those cared for by elders in the sect, it would have no attraction. After all, although the Fixed Spirit Pill is precious, there is only one," Brother Wang slowly explained the greatest benefit of the Sword Trial Assembly for individuals.
"Clear Spirit Water!" Han Li raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself.
Han Li had seen the name of this spirit water in many classics, but he never expected that the three sects of Mount Mount Yunmeng would actually be able to prepare this water.
This was truly beyond his expectations, and he was also quite tempted.
"However, even without mentioning the preciousness of the Holy Tree's first drop of alcohol liquid, the other 'medicine' materials for preparation are all extremely rare. It is said that several types of thousand-year spirit 'medicines' were used. It's a pity that this miraculous effect of clearing the eyes is only effective for low-tier cultivators at the Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment stages. Otherwise, the higher-ups wouldn't be willing to take it out as a reward," Kui Cai Huan added with envy.
Hearing this, Han Li already had a general understanding of the Sword Trial Assembly. As for more specific details, he planned to understand them himself.
After all, since this matter involved the Fixed Spirit Pill and the Clear Spirit Water, he would definitely not let it go easily.
Next, Brother Wang and the others chatted with Han Li for a few more words about the Sword Trial Assembly and then said goodbye and left.
Han Li watched the figures of the few flying away into black dots, and his expression began to turn solemn. He didn't return to his cave dwelling immediately, but stood outside the medicine garden and began to ponder with his head lowered.
"Why, is Brother Han tempted! I wonder if you are looking at the Fixed Spirit Pill or the Clear Spirit Water," suddenly, Lady Yin Yue's soft voice sounded from his sleeve.
"Why, can't I want both?" Han Li lifted his head and said without being polite.
Then he shook his sleeve, and the small fox jumped out and rapidly returned to its original size.
"Hehe! Daoist friend Han, you are really a bit greedy. However, this is also good. Whether it's the Fixed Spirit Pill or the spirit water, they are indeed very practical things. If you miss this opportunity, it would be really hard to get your hands on them," the white fox raised its slender neck and said elegantly.
"You don't need to tell me that. I know what I'm doing. Now follow me back to the cave dwelling. Before considering the Sword Trial Assembly, let's finish your business first," Han Li's voice was a bit cold.
Afterwards, he turned and walked towards the cave dwelling.
Seeing this, the white fox revealed a hint of a smile in its eyes and followed closely behind without a word.
As soon as he entered the cave dwelling inside the stone mountain, Han Li immediately set about the matter of refining the artifact spirit.
The Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords were about to have an artifact spirit, and their power would naturally increase quite a bit. This made Han Li feel slightly excited in his heart.
Originally, the success rate of refining an artifact spirit for a magic treasure was pitifully small. But that was the result of the demon beast's soul resisting with all its might. And now, this Silver Moon demon spirit, whose main body was a giant silver wolf, was willing to actively reside in Han Li's magic treasure, so naturally, there wouldn't be much difficulty.
But moving the other party's main soul out of that jade Jade Ruyi was a tricky matter. Fortunately, the white fox seemed very confident about this, claiming that it could handle it itself.
Hearing this, Han Li was naturally happy to be relaxed.
So, following the white fox's instructions, he drew a strange magic array in a quiet room, put the jade Jade Ruyi and the white fox into it at the same time, and then came out unhurriedly.
The quiet room was placed with a soundproof restriction, and Han Li didn't know how Lady Yin Yue would leave the jade Jade Ruyi or what sounds were inside, nor did he intend to peek.
Because the other party should be very clear about what would happen if the main soul couldn't be moved out.
Next, Han Li wasn't idle either.
He walked to the quiet room next door and began to prepare for other matters of refining the artifact spirit.
Half a day later, Han Li had prepared everything and felt the time was about right, so he didn't hesitate to push open the stone door of the quiet room next door.
Scanning the situation in the room, Han Li's expression stirred.
In the magic array in the middle of the stone room, the jade Jade Ruyi and the white fox were still waiting in place. However, the light on the Jade Ruyi was much dimmer, and the white fox on the side was wet, its fur looking a bit dirty and messy, as if it had rolled on the ground, and its fox eyes were filled with exhaustion.
Seeing Han Li enter, Lady Yin Yue didn't move its body or speak, as if it didn't even have the strength to talk.
"How is it? Is it going smoothly?" Han Li's expression relaxed, and he asked gently.
"Although it was painfully agonizing, I finally made it through. You've prepared everything on your side too, right? I don't have a vessel anymore, so I can't stay in this white fox body for too long. I must merge with your magic treasure immediately, otherwise the soul will vanish into smoke," Lady Yin Yue's voice was extremely weak, but she still braced herself to speak.
Hearing this, Han Li nodded, and without hesitation, he leaned over, supported the white fox with both hands, gently carried it out of the quiet room, and came to the room next door.
As soon as he entered the stone room, Han Li immediately closed the stone door, and it was silent inside.
Three days later, outside the medicine garden's restriction, a red light transformed from a sound transmission talisman flew over.
This red light dived into the thick fog and then disappeared without a trace.
After a full hour, green light flashed in the thick fog, revealing Han Li's figure.
He lifted his head to look at the sky, touched his chin, then raised his hand to release a flying sword, and then flew towards the Heaven Spring Peak direction on his magic tool.
"Brother Han, looking at the meaning of that sound transmission talisman, it seems all the Heaven Spring Peak disciples have been summoned. Could it be for the Sword Trial Assembly?" Lady Yin Yue's crisp voice suddenly appeared in Han Li's brain.
"Not clear. However, even a guy like me who is almost forgotten could receive a sound transmission talisman sent personally by the peak master. It seems that even if it's not for the Sword Trial Assembly, there is some other urgent matter," Han Li replied calmly with his divine sense.
"If Brother Han really participates in this kind of competition for juniors, even without revealing your cultivation, winning the championship would definitely be a piece of cake. But at that time, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of high-tier cultivators. If it's not good, maybe even the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the three sects might pay attention. At that time, the loss might outweigh the gain," Lady Yin Yue reminded softly.
"I naturally know this matter. When did I ever say I would definitely participate in this so-called assembly? Even if I participate, I will definitely not win the championship. You can rest assured. Before condensing the Nascent Soul, I won't let anyone pay attention to me," Han Li replied with an unchanging expression.
"It seems Lady Yin Yue spoke too much. With the storms Brother Han has experienced, this kind of small matter naturally doesn't need a little girl to mention," Lady Yin Yue said with a light laugh. Although it was just a voice, the implied charm still leaked out by thirty percent.
Hearing this, Han Li couldn't help but sigh.
Although this person claimed to be of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan, why did he feel that the other party was even more fox-like than that demon fox?
And after the other party became his artifact spirit, it seemed to know that Han Li wouldn't do anything to it anymore. If it was possessing the white fox, it would be fine, and it would cultivate honestly. But once it transformed into an artifact spirit and hid in the flying sword, it would talk to him non-stop. It seemed that the loneliness of being in the jade Jade Ruyi before had all been vented in these few days.
This gave Han Li quite a headache. He had previously thought that this woman was even more gentle and refined than a young lady from a noble family!
He didn't know if the other party's temperament would slowly change back.
