Chapter 911: Volume 6 Spiritual Treasures Chapter 908 Crystalized Demon Pill and Flying Needle Chapter 911: Volume 6 Spiritual Treasures Chapter 908 Crystalized Demon Pill and Flying Needle “So, is there a problem with these Fire Melting Crystals?” the old man said with a chuckle, his expression one of geniality and profit.
“No, these are indeed the crystals I was looking for,” Han Li nodded without changing his expression, then quickly pocketed the crystals and excused himself with a clasped fist before leaving.
The old man watched Han Li’s retreating back, then glanced at the now-empty jade box and slightly furrowed his brow, a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, Han Li had returned to his seat in the auction hall, where with a sudden glimmer of light in his hand, a Fire Melting Crystal appeared.
Han Li smiled as he looked at the crystal, a hint of triumph in his eyes.
“Eight hundred spirit stones for three Fire Melting Crystals, friend, you really are generous!” remarked the woman in green sitting beside him, unable to hold back her words upon seeing his expression.
“Yes, I’ve wished to purchase this crystal for a long time.
Being able to acquire it for eight hundred spirit stones makes this trip worthwhile,” Han Li replied calmly after giving the woman a glance, then flipped his hand and the crystal vanished without a trace.
The woman in green felt a sharp glint in Han Li’s eyes and felt a jolt in her heart; the words that had reached her tongue suddenly couldn’t be spoken.
The woman in yellow sitting next to her noticed this scene and her expression slightly changed, as if she sensed something.
But after a brief pause, she chose not to say anything.
Having gained an unexpected treasure, Han Li began to look forward to the subsequent items in the auction.
It was then that Monarch Great Development finally spoke up:
“Han Li, what exactly is the connection between the Fire Melting Crystals and the demon cores?
Source: Webnovel.com, updated on ɴονǤօ.ᴄο
You really should explain it to me.”
“In fact, senior might have guessed something already.
One of these Fire Melting Crystals is in truth a grade seven Fiend Core, just that it has been neglected for many years and has fully crystallized.
It looks no different from an ordinary Fire Melting Crystal, and even persons with powerful Divine Sense cannot discern any difference,” Han Li calmly transmitted his voice.
“Grade seven demon cores?
If neither Divine Sense nor appearance can discern it, then how did you recognize it?” Monarch Great Development wasn’t overly surprised, but he was somewhat skeptical.
“Hehe!
It’s actually related to the Evil Qi that I carry.
I have personally slain thousands of high-grade demon beasts, which is why I have such intense Evil Qi and am thus extremely sensitive to demon cores.
The moment the grade seven demon cores were brought out, the Evil Qi in me resonated automatically.
Besides, having handled countless demon cores in past years, I naturally have special methods of identification,” Han Li said leisurely.
“I see.
If you really have slain so many demon beasts, the intensity of your Evil Qi is indeed understandable.
But the fact that you managed to slay so many strikes my interest.
It seems you have many stories you’ve never shared with me!” Monarch Great Development chuckled, his expression enigmatic.
“It’s nothing significant, just some opportunities from my past.
But senior, you might not yet know the marvels of these crystallized demon pills,” wanting to divert the topic from his past in the Scattered Stars Sea and the encounter with the old eccentric, Han Li tactfully changed the subject to something that might interest the other.
“Oh!
I’ve never heard of crystallized demon pills before.
What are their uses?” Once Han Li transmitted this, Monarch Great Development’s curiosity was piqued, and he no longer pursued the topic of demon beasts.
“Actually, crystallized demon cores can no longer be considered true demon cores, and if used in medicine or alchemy, they contain a deadly poison.
Although the poison isn’t ranked among the deadliest, ordinary cultivators would drop dead instantly upon contact.
However, this material is the prime choice for refining flying needles.
It’s said that flying needles crafted directly from this material not only have incredibly fast speeds and can harm an opponent on release, but most fearsomely, due to the special nature of the material, the flying needles can move almost invisibly.
They’re excellent tools for stealth attacks.
But such crystallized demon pills are incredibly rare, and cultivators capable of recognizing them are even rarer.
If it weren’t for the Evil Qi I carry, I likely wouldn’t have been able to immediately identify this treasure,” Han Li spoke while stroking his chin, appearing nonchalant but reminiscing about the jade slip that recorded the method of using crystallized demon pills to refine flying needles.
He wasn’t sure whether that jade slip was obtained from slaying that unfortunate in the Scattered Stars Sea.
At that time, he had merely regarded it as a curiosity, never expecting to actually encounter the real thing.
Such a rare material for refining, he naturally couldn’t just let it go.
“I’ve truly never heard of such a thing.
It seems the world is so large, nothing is truly bizarre.
I suppose no cultivator could ever traverse every place in the human world.
Just from what I know, like our Tian Luo in the realm of immortal cultivators, there are at least five or six regions.
Some places are accessible directly, while others require assuming certain risks to enter.
Other than Great Jin, I’ve visited only two of these places in my early years, then had to return to Tian Luo to devote myself reluctantly to the study of the Soul Attachment Technique due to the limits of my lifespan,” Monarch Great Development said, his voice filled with a trace of regret.
“Why should senior be so pessimistic?
The cycle of life and death is an unavoidable reality for everyone.
Even ascending to the next world doesn’t ensure freedom from these bounds.
The only ones who might live as long as heaven and earth are probably the immortals of the Immortal realm.
But for us ordinary mortals, ascending to the spirit realm is arduously difficult.
Immortal Ascension, throughout ancient and modern times, has been achieved by only a few!” Han Li seemed touched by these sentiments and stayed silent for a moment before speaking.
“Hehe!
I still can’t accept it.
I believe that with my cultivation talent and intelligence, I was definitely among the best in the world, yet I ended up in a puppet’s body, barely clinging to life.
Given another chance, advancing to the Divinity Transformation Stage should not be too difficult for me,” Monarch Great Development murmured regretfully, his voice fading until it was gone.
Hearing this, Han Li’s heart inexplicably filled with a sense of melancholy.
Back then, the founder of a sect in the westernmost regions, who once dominated Tian Luo without any rival, was certainly more glorious than himself.
Yet, unable to advance to the Divinity Transformation Stage, he had fallen into such a wretched state, which weighed heavily on Han Li’s mood.
This current situation of Monarch Great Development might very well be a cruel portrait of his own future!
With this thought, Han Li’s face slightly darkened, and he too lost the interest to say much more.
The auction proceeded as usual, with the items being auctioned becoming considerably more precious than before, yet Han Li found nothing more that caught his eye.
When it came to the last few Daoist paper talismans and various Spirit Pills, Han Li did not wish to stay any longer and, amidst the astonished gazes of the two women beside him, rose from his seat and left the auction, drifting away.
Having exited the grand hall, he no longer browsed the other stalls.
He stepped out of the square and slowly wandered among the pavilion-style houses, seemingly distracted.
Occasionally, he encountered other visiting cultivators and the descendants of the three organizing families, yet no one paid him any heed.
However, Han Li gradually made his way toward the more secluded and less populated areas.
After strolling for the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Turning his gaze, he noticed a Foundation Establishment cultivator in white robes standing in the shadows of a pavilion, looking around as if he were waiting for someone.
Han Li’s expression remained unchanged, but his Divine Sense swiftly scanned the surroundings.
Within dozens of yards, there was no trace of other cultivators, nor were there any powerful restrictive formations hidden nearby.
The nearest cultivator was over a hundred yards away and would not notice this place.
Without hesitation, Han Li changed direction and approached the cultivator.
“Do you need something?” asked the large man with a face full of lateral flesh, staring blankly at Han Li as he approached, his voice booming.
“Are you a cultivator from the Kong Family?” Han Li asked with a slight smile on his face as he reached the man.
“Indeed, I am the Outer Hall Steward of the Kong Family!
May I know what you are here for?” The large man examined Han Li closely, noting his fully-equipped appearance with storage pouch and spirit beast pouch, not seeming like a typical Loose Cultivator, and replied politely.
“I have some matters that require meeting with your family head.
Is it possible for you to relay the message?” Han Li asked with a pleasant expression.
“Meeting our family head?
I’m afraid that’s not possible.
Our family head is currently busy with important matters and does not meet outsiders randomly.
If you truly have urgent matters, you might as well discuss them with me first!” The large man furrowed his brows, hesitantly saying.
“It’s like this, I just came from the auction and I noticed there might be an issue with one of the items.
I wanted to discuss it with your family head,” Han Li said, purposely hesitating.
“Auction?
Is there something wrong with the item?
If that’s the case, you should directly contact the cultivators in charge of the auction,” suggested the large man, his expression becoming serious upon hearing Han Li’s words.
“This isn’t something the auction can solve.
If you don’t believe me, take a look at what I bought, and you’ll understand,” Han Li sighed, casually reaching towards his waist.
Seeing Han Li’s movement, the large man, with years of experience, instinctively placed his hand on his waist as well, showing a wary expression.
But what Han Li pulled out was a sparkling red Crystal Stone, which he handed over.
Only then did the large man’s suspicion recede, his muscles relaxed as he removed his hand and said in surprise,
“This is a Fire Melting Crystal.
Why do you need to meet our family head with this?”
While speaking, he reached out to take the Crystal Stone.
But the moment his fingers touched the Crystal Stone, a streak of blue light suddenly flashed from the stone, shooting out at such a close range that the large man could not evade.
He was instantly alarmed and attempted to shout, but a cold sensation touched his forehead, and then his entire body felt cold, freezing in a layer of blue frost.
He instantly lost the ability to move.
With a flick of his sleeve, a burst of azure light shot out, sweeping the large man into the light and directly into the pavilion in front of them.
Then, with a flicker, Han Li silently followed inside.
