Chapter 75

~8 min read 1,409 words

Ever since Han Li learned the "Wind-Control Technique," his interest in the other two magic spells, "Spirit-Fixing Talisman" and "Object-Control Technique," became even greater. He spent a lot of time and energy on them, hoping that one day he could suddenly comprehend them thoroughly like the "Wind-Control Technique" and suddenly become enlightened. 【Net】

But after countless studies, Han Li unexpectedly discovered that the inability to cast these two magic spells might not be his own reason, but might just be that the external conditions for casting the spell were not met.

According to the book, the "Spirit-Fixing Talisman" was a kind of talisman, and it must use a magic talisman prepared in advance. Therefore, Han Li had always used yellow paper bought from a nearby town, and then according to the symbol patterns in the book, drew the so-called magic talisman with a brush.

Although the book didn't say what kind of paint was needed for the symbol patterns of the magic talisman, he recalled the silver talisman Doctor Mo used, so he naturally adopted silver powder, such a precious luxury item. Whether this pigment was effective or not, Han Li didn't know, but at least from the appearance, these self-made magic talismans were exactly the same as the examples in the book.

Unfortunately, just having the same appearance was still not enough.

When Han Li used incantations to urge these magic talismans, the symbols on the magic talismans didn't emit dazzling silver light like when Doctor Mo used them, nor did any other strange phenomena occur. It could be said that his spellcasting failed completely and put him in a dilemma. Because he didn't know whether the failure of the spellcasting was due to the error of the incantation or the hand-sealing posture, or because the manufacture of the magic talisman was not successful.

But it was different after this study.

Through in-depth inquiry into various related materials and books about magic spell legends, Han Li finally discovered that the magic talismans used by immortal cultivators were definitely not made of ordinary paper and pigments that they mortals knew, but should be made of certain materials unique to immortal cultivators. Perhaps some special methods were also needed during production. Therefore, even if he was impeccable in incantations and gestures, the spellcasting could not possibly be successful.

The "Object-Control Technique" was the same principle.

Han Li previously thought that the "Object-Control Technique" could be cast on any object as a target, so the objects he used to urge by pinching the seal and reciting the incantation were all common objects like furniture or knives and swords. Naturally, there was no effect at all.

But now, being reminded by the matter of talisman paper, he finally understood that the objects driven by the "Object-Control Technique" were definitely not ordinary objects, but should be specific items used by immortal cultivators.

Thus, Han Li took all the strange and bizarre things he obtained from Doctor Mo, including the "Soul-Attracting Bell" and the seven silver blades used to perform the "Seven Ghosts Devouring Soul Technique," and used them as targets for the "Object-Control Technique" to test them. Unfortunately, there was not a single thing that could be successfully cast. This made Han Li very disappointed. It seemed that the objects driven by the "Object-Control Technique" were not these magic tools either, and should be something else.

Since he knew the general root of the problem and understood that it was impossible to cast the "Spirit-Fixing Talisman" and "Object-Control Technique" without corresponding items, Han Li moved his attention away from this. Instead, he had the idea of combining martial arts secret techniques with several magic spells, intending to rapidly improve his own strength and make himself go a step further in a short period of time.

After having this whimsical idea, Han Li began a hard journey of self-tempering and soon achieved small success.

After a period of attempts, he finally integrated the "Luo Smoke Steps" and the "Wind-Control Technique."

It was called integration, but in fact, it was just casting the "Wind-Control Technique" magic spell on his body first, and then applying the "Luo Smoke Steps" later. It was just that the coordination and matching between the two must be controlled well, otherwise, it was very easy to make mistakes, which cost Han Li a lot of mind and effort.

But in this way, the shortcomings of the "Wind-Control Technique" not being good at shifting and the "Luo Smoke Steps" consuming too much physical strength when moving were gradually perfected, and he became like electric light and thunder fire when moving and changing positions, seeing only his shadow and not his person, making his body technique even more elusive.

Not long after, Han Li also had his own original move in the use of the "Fireball Technique."

Originally, after the small fireball of the "Fireball Technique" appeared, the caster should use his own magic power to push the fireball to shoot toward the target to kill the enemy. This was the original use of this technique, but Han Li felt it was not so.

Han Li thought that the small fireball shot by magic power was too slow, and any light-gong expert could easily dodge it, which limited it a lot in Jianghu fighting and made it appear somewhat flashy but not solid. Therefore, he simply only cast half the spell when using the "Fireball Technique." After the fireball appeared, he didn't shoot it out, but used its characteristic of destroying everything to control it on his hand as a short and sharp divine weapon.

In this way, relying on his improved extreme body technique and the high-temperature fireball in his hand, Han Li was now confident that he could easily kill any expert.

With these reliances, Han Li could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't have to worry about his own strength being insufficient anymore. Now he could finally be full of confidence to go to Lanzhou to detoxify the poison.

At this time, Han Li's "Everlasting Spring Technique" also quietly entered the eighth layer while eating spirit medicine as snacks every day, making his magic power grow a large section again.

In terms of the depth of magic power alone, the current Han Li had already exceeded the Yu Yu Zitong when his physical body was still there, but in terms of the number of magic spells mastered and actual fighting techniques, he was still far behind the previous Yu Yu Zitong. After all, when Yu Yu Zitong practiced magic spells in his family, he had elders to give him pointers, and fellow disciples to spar with, which was much stronger than a half-bottle of vinegar like Han Li.

Han Li didn't know all these situations, and even if he knew, he didn't care. He originally didn't think that he could contend with a real immortal cultivator just by learning one or two shallow magic spells. His current enemies were still mainly Jianghu people in the secular world.

Therefore, Han Li's mood was very good. Just when he was full of ambition and preparing to find an excuse to leave the Seven Mysteries Sect and go down the mountain, the Wild Wolf Gang suddenly put forward a request to negotiate with the Seven Mysteries Sect.

As soon as this news came, it caused an uproar in the Seven Mysteries Sect. You have to know that recently, the Wild Wolf Gang had been occupying the upper hand in the conflicts and had been suppressing the Seven Mysteries Sect. Under such favorable circumstances, why would the other party suddenly want to negotiate? Would there be any scheme in it? This aroused the suspicion of many people.

For a time, voices agreeing to negotiate and voices disagreeing to negotiate rose one after another in the Seven Mysteries Sect, and various high-level figures also had their own different views. Li Li Feiyu was one of the people who firmly opposed it.

Because the momentum of those who agreed and those who opposed was about the same, and they couldn't argue who was better, finally, Sect Master Wang decided to talk to the other party first. If the conditions were not too excessive, they would shake hands and make peace. If they were too harsh, they would continue to fight.

This kind of compromise scheme, although it couldn't satisfy both groups, was the only way to compromise, and it could only be so.
