Chapter 1192: Slim Chances
Han Li took a glance at the rumbling lightning region behind him, then sped away in another direction.
Right at this moment, he suddenly raised an eyebrow and stopped in his tracks, following which his Reincarnation Palace mask appeared on his face.
Immediately thereafter, he was ecstatic to discover that he had received a response on the advertisement that he had posted in search of time-attribute law materials.
He hurriedly made a hand seal, and a projection of an elegant figure emerged from his mask.
To his surprise, it was none other than Wyrm 3.
"Fellow Daoist Wyrm 3? What brings you here? Could it be that you're in possession of the time-attribute law materials that I seek?" Han Li asked.
"I certainly do. Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Han," Wyrm 3 said with a faint smile, then flipped a hand over to produce a length of azure wood that was around half a foot in length.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wyrm 3, what you have there is perfect for my needs. How many Immortal Origin Stones would you like for it?" Han Li asked.
The length of wood was identical in appearance to the one that Patriarch Miro had tried to bestow upon him, and it was clearly the same type of material.
Out of his five time-attribute law treasures, the Eastern Vicissitudes Divine Tree was the only one that was still sorely lacking in time law threads compared with the rest, so this was precisely what he needed.
Han Li was both elated and befuddled to see this. He had been very vague about the time-attribute law items that he was searching for in the advertisement that he had released, yet somehow, Wyrm 3 had been able to present one that perfectly fit his needs.
"You can have it for free if you'd like, Fellow Daoist Han. I didn't get a chance to thank you for your help in the Tai Sui Immortal Manor," Wyrm 3 replied as she made a hand seal, and the length of wood instantly appeared in the item teleportation array in front of Han Li.
He was rather taken aback by this, and he didn't immediately reach out for the length of wood.
"We both got what we wanted in the Tai Sui Immortal Manor, so you don't owe me anything. I can't accept such a precious item free of charge, so please state a price, Fellow Daoist Wyrm 3," Han Li said with a shake of his head.
"In that case, I'll state a condition. Once the Nine Origins Temple mission commences, I want you to do me a favor as compensation for this item. What do you say?" Wyrm 3 asked with a faint smile.
"What exactly is it that you would like me to do for you?" Han Li asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Han, it won't be anything difficult or perilous. However, I can't divulge to you exactly what it is for the moment," Wyrm 3 replied with a shake of her head.
"Alright, I can accept that arrangement. By the way, when is the Nine Origins Temple mission going to commence?" Han Li asked as he stowed the length of wood away.
"It shouldn't be too much longer, perhaps around a hundred more years at most," Wyrm 3 replied, and Han Li was quite relieved to hear this.
It seemed like Xiaobai would be able to take part in the mission.
A faint smile appeared on Han Li's face, and he activated the Celestial Time Array and the Heavenly Wheel Sundial, accelerating the flow of time in the Flower Branch domain.
He didn't know how long it was going to take for him to reach the Great Encompassment Stage, so he had to make as much time for himself as possible.
After doing all of that, he flew into the bamboo pavilion, then sat down and pulled out the length of wood given to him by Wyrm 3.
He channeled the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra, conjuring up the golden ring to encircle the length of wood, which instantly disintegrated into countless specks of golden light that fused into the golden ring before being converted into over fifty time law threads, all of which wrapped themselves around the Eastern Vicissitudes Divine Tree.
The Time Severing Torch still had more time law threads around it than all of the other time-attribute law treasures, but there was certainly much more balance than before.
The five time-attribute law treasures lit up in unison and began rapidly revolving around Han Li.
A sense of enlightenment instantly welled up in his heart, and his Great Encompassment Stage bottleneck began to loosen.
It's just as Master said, balance is the most important thing when cultivating the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra! Han Li thought to himself with an ecstatic expression, then laid out all of the things that he had prepared for this very breakthrough, particularly the True Profound Pill.
The pill was only to be consumed at the end of a Great Encompassment Stage breakthrough, so it had been preserved in the wake of his failed breakthrough attempt.
Han Li sat down to meditate for half a day, priming himself into the best condition before channeling the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra.
Radiant, golden light began to emanate from his body, and a burst of tremendous time law powers erupted out of the pavilion, while all of the nearby world's origin qi slowly converged toward him.
......
There Was an ocean outside the Ancient Cloud Continent of the Northern Glacial Immortal Region called the Eastern Flow Sea.
The Eastern Flow Sea was frozen all year round, but there was one area of it that currently remained unfrozen.
In this area of the sea was a deepsea chasm that reached all the way down to the seabed.
At the bottom of the chasm was an unremarkable-looking gray stone plaque, which was connected to the floating mountain secret area of the once powerful Blaze Dragon Dao.
The secret area produced bountiful harvests of spirit medicines, making it an important source of resources for the sect, and Han Li had previously been stationed here once upon a time. However, with the fall of the Blaze Dragon Dao, this secret area had also been claimed by the Northern Glacial Immortal Palace.
Inside the secret area was a white stone plaza on a floating mountain, and an unkempt gray-robed man was leaning against the railing at the edge of the plaza with a white jade wine flagon in his hand, looking as if he had only just woken up.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he was looking at the mountains floating in the air before him with a sullen expression.
He was once one of the Blaze Dragon Dao's thirty-six deputy dao lords with a bright future ahead, yet during the crisis that had befallen the sect, he was just a little slow to join the traitors, resulting in his gradual ostracization over time.
It only took about a century before he was banished to this place to manage this floating mountain secret area, and it was certainly a far cry from former heights that he had reached.
