Chapter 944

"So rare, this thing should have some special features?" Han Li stared at the silver bead in the jade plate, his gaze flickering as he asked. Net

"More than just a little special! This thing is fine for us cultivators, mostly just used as a top-tier auxiliary material for refining magic tools and pills. But if it falls into the hands of the demon race, it is an excellent life-saving object for demon beasts to experience the transformation thunder tribulation, even if they have to fight until their souls fly away and spirits scatter." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch replied.

"The transformation thunder tribulation of the demon race?" Even though Han Li was already prepared, he couldn't help but be stunned upon hearing this.

"That's right. There are countless high-tier demon beasts in this world, but those who can reach the top-tier of Rank 7 and safely pass the transformation tribulation are few and far between. After all, the power of heavenly thunder originally has a restraining effect on most demon beasts, and the thunder tribulation is not much different from a death tribulation for them. And a demon beast that is about to undergo the tribulation takes a drop of this Cold Marrow, and after refining it, it can greatly weaken the damage of the thunder and lightning power to the demon body for a certain period of time. You say whether this Cold Marrow is precious to these demon beasts. However, not many human cultivators in the cultivation world know about this thing. Because the cultivators of the North Night Small Extreme Palace practice a very strange cold-attribute cultivation technique, I have also fought with high-tier cultivators in their palace when I traveled in the Great Jin, so I recognize this thing. And it is said that every thousand years or so, some high-tier demon beasts in the Great Jin will secretly gather on the North Underworld Ice Island where the Small Extreme Palace is located, fighting desperately to attack the North Night Small Extreme Palace, just to be able to force the cultivators in the palace to hand over some Cold Marrow. Even if the attack fails, these demon beasts will not have any major damage. It's just that the North Night Small Extreme Palace inherits some ancient supernatural power cultivators, and several restriction arrays passed down from ancient times are all extraordinary. Especially this island is located on the cold eye of the Heavenly Origin Yin Vein, and the cold air that pierces the bones for ten thousand miles can kill people invisibly. Demon beasts that have not practiced cold-attribute cultivation techniques have to use most of their spiritual power to resist the invasion of cold air as soon as they enter the island, and cannot fight the cultivators of the North Night Small Extreme Palace with all their strength. Therefore, although the demon cultivators are aggressive every time they go, they have never truly conquered the North Underworld Island. However, this spirit liquid is so precious, how did that early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who died in your hands obtain it? You see if this small bottle has any special markings." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch explained to Han Li, and then felt somewhat puzzled.

"There is such a thing?" Han Li found it somewhat hard to believe.

"What's strange about this? If they don't have Cold Marrow to pass the transformation tribulation, they are mostly on a dead end. If they are lucky enough to get a drop of Cold Marrow, the chance of passing the thunder tribulation will increase greatly. How could they not do their best? Moreover, every time this happens, the few old monsters in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley will also take the lead in this matter. However, this spirit liquid is so precious, how did that early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who died in your hands obtain it? You see if this small bottle has any special markings." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch explained to Han Li, and then felt somewhat puzzled.

"Markings. There is a snowflake-shaped pattern on the bottom of this small bottle, I wonder if this counts as a marking?" Han Li felt a move in his heart, extended his finger and touched the bottom of the bottle, and said.

"Then that's right, this is exactly the marking of the North Underworld Island. It seems this bottle is the Cold Marrow of the Small Extreme Palace. But it actually fell into the hands of such an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator and was put into the storage bag so casually, which is somewhat strange." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch seemed to be thinking about the difficult part.

"Anything strange can happen in this world. Perhaps this thing was stolen from the North Underworld Island by someone, or it was simply carried by a cultivator of the North Underworld Island who betrayed the sect, and then fell into the hands of that person by coincidence. These are all possible. What I am curious about is, you just said that this Cold Marrow is only an auxiliary material for refining magic tools and pills for us cultivators. If so, why do the cultivators of the North Night Small Extreme Palace fight against the demon beasts for generations for this thing, why don't they just hand it over?" Han Li pondered for a moment, then frowned and asked.

"Some cultivators in the Great Jin who know the truth and have doubts have already had this. But the Small Extreme Palace's explanation to the outside world is that it is to curb the existence of Rank 8 demon beasts and above, so as to maintain the stability of the Great Jin cultivation world. Otherwise, this small bottle of Cold Marrow would be enough to catalyze dozens of Rank 8 demon beasts, and this force would be enough to break the balance of the Great Jin's forces and cause great chaos. However, this kind of saying can only deceive some ordinary people. The high-tier cultivator of the Small Extreme Palace who fought with me back then seemed to have a high status, seemingly a Vice Palace Master. Because he spoke rudely, after he was defeated and killed by me, I used the soul-searching technique to entertain him well. As a result, I accidentally obtained a secret news about Cold Marrow." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch said here, his voice paused, seemingly recalling something.

"Secret news?" Han Li's eyebrows moved, and he became greatly interested.

"That's right, if I hadn't seen this Cold Marrow, I would have forgotten it long ago. This matter, besides a few high-level members of the North Night Small Extreme Palace, no one else knows at all. In fact, besides being used as alchemy and artifact refining materials, the main function of Cold Marrow is the main raw material for refining the ancient secret medicine 'Returning Yang True Water'." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch's voice became solemn.

"Returning Yang Water? Is that the secret medicine that can grow flesh from bones and infinitely repair the body?" Han Li took a deep breath and was startled.

"That's right. It is said that no matter how heavy the damage to the body is, even if it is already torn apart or the body and head are in different places, as long as this spirit medicine is sprinkled on the wound, it can instantly return to its original state. Some classics even say that this spirit medicine has the heaven-defying effect of bringing the dead back to life. Of course, these are all rumors, and no one knows whether they are true or false. But there is one point that all classics agree on, and that is that Returning Yang Water has the miraculous effect of extending a cultivator's lifespan. And it is enough to extend an ordinary cultivator's lifespan by a quarter. You know what this means, right?" The Great Expansion Divine Monarch said indifferently.

"This means that some late-stage Core Formation cultivators have the opportunity to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, and late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivators have a great possibility of entering the Spirit Transformation stage." Han Li exhaled a long breath and muttered.

"Of course, this Cold Marrow is only one of the main raw materials for refining Returning Yang True Water. If you really want to refine this spirit water, other raw materials are fine, but the Sun Essence Fire deep under ten thousand zhang of lava is indispensable. Only the Cold Marrow quenched by this fire can be called Yin-Yang adjustment and can refine Returning Yang Water. Otherwise, it is just wasting this thing in vain." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch said meaningfully.

"Sun Essence Fire, where can I find this thing? Not to mention how long an ordinary cultivator can support under ten thousand zhang of lava? What is the probability of this fire forming in ten thousand miles of lava? Once this Sun Essence Fire is formed, it is like becoming a spirit, and it comes and goes without a trace in the lava, how can it be captured? Even if there is this fire, without the formula for Returning Yang Water, it is also a futile thing." Han Li said somewhat self-deprecatingly.

The Great Expansion Divine Monarch fell silent, and after a good while, he said slowly:

"I have no way to deal with the Sun Essence Fire, but I have the formula here. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Han has forgotten the Vice Palace Master of the Small Extreme Palace that I killed back then. His divine sense happened to record this formula. I felt it was somewhat rare back then, so I recorded it casually. If you really want to refine this spirit medicine, I can provide it to you."

"Senior has this formula, this is truly great. Then I will keep it for now. Perhaps I can really use it in the future." Han Li was surprised and overjoyed when he heard the words of the Great Expansion Divine Monarch, and then replied happily.

"That Sun Essence Fire is not something that cultivators of this world can capture at all. I advise you not to pin too much hope on this. Otherwise, why haven't the great supernatural power cultivators of the North Night Small Extreme Palace, who have held this formula and Cold Marrow for so many years, ever refined this spirit water?" The Great Expansion Divine Monarch said indifferently, and then without waiting for Han Li to say anything, a pale yellow jade slip flew out from the bamboo tube. He had actually copied the formula for Returning Yang Water in such a short time.

"Thank you, Senior. I am just preparing for the worst." Han Li grabbed the jade slip and replied with a smile.

"Since your Snow Crystal Bead is also refined from ten-thousand-year mysterious jade, if you can mix in a few drops of Cold Marrow, it can greatly increase the spiritual nature and power of this treasure. Don't forget." The Great Expansion Divine Monarch finally exhorted, and then felt that he had said enough today, so he fell silent and didn't speak.

Han Li raised his eyebrows lightly. Even if the Great Expansion Divine Monarch didn't mention this, he would do the same.

However, there was one thing Han Li was still very curious about, and that was whether the cold air emitted by this Cold Marrow could be absorbed and fused by his Purple Luo Extreme Fire? Would it make the power of his Purple Luo Extreme Fire even better?

Thinking of this, Han Li poured the silver bead in the jade plate back into the small bottle, and he himself opened his five fingers, and suddenly a cluster of purple light flames appeared in his hand. With a flip of his hand, the purple fireballs immediately turned into a small light curtain, sealing the bottle mouth.

Then he pinched the formula with his other hand and muttered words in his mouth.

Only to see the purple flames flash, and under the chanting of the formula, the threads of flames on the light curtain began to rotate by themselves, and they became faster and faster.

A moment later, a wisp of silver-shining cold air slowly emerged from the bottle mouth, dreamlike and beautiful.

Han Li gave a low shout and raised his hand to cast a green magic formula.

After the light curtain absorbed this magic formula, it trembled, and immediately turned into a fireball the size of a fist, and that wisp of cold air was tightly wrapped in it, sealed and impenetrable.

Then Han Li covered the small bottle with the lid, and beckoned to the purple fireball with his other hand. The fireball flashed and shot toward Han Li.

Opening his mouth, Han Li actually swallowed the purple fireball together with the silver cold air into his abdomen, and then sat cross-legged on the ground, slowly closing his eyes.

At this moment, in Han Li's dantian, the Nascent Soul, which was two inches in size, opened its eyes, clear and extraordinary.

And in front of it, the purple fireball was rotating slowly, while inside there was a silver cluster flashing endlessly.

The Nascent Soul blinked, immediately pinched the formula with its small hands, and the green spiritual light on its body shone brightly, and one after another magic formulas were cast from its hands.

The purple fireball burned with a "boom", and the silver light cluster inside also turned into silver flames and began to intertwine and fuse with the purple flames.

And Han Li, who was outside, was expressionless, and his whole person had completely entered a state of meditation, motionless.
