Han Li, in the form of a golden-haired giant ape, pressed down hard on the two metal behemoths with his two giant palms, which were like iron hoops, his eyes flickering slightly.

If he really wanted to kill the two beasts, he naturally had plenty of ways, it would just take a bit of trouble. However, at this moment, he hesitated, and the thought of taking these two strange beasts into the Flower Branch Cave Heaven came to him. They would make good guardian spirits for the garden.

While he was hesitating, the long tails of the two metal beasts suddenly hooked together. Two dazzling golden lights lit up at the same time, and the bodies of the two metal beasts suddenly liquefied, merging together. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into a giant golden tiger.

After merging into one, the golden wings on the back of the metal beast were obviously several times larger, but they were still somewhat disproportionate compared to its body size.

"They can still fuse, truly worthy of being heaven and earth beasts transformed from the purest gold-attribute vitality!" Feeling the surge of aura on its body, Han Li couldn't help but nod and smile.

"Roar..."

After its aura surged, the metal beast seemed to have a much bigger temper. It let out a roar and pounced forward, trying to tear Han Li apart.

However, at this moment, an unexpected change occurred!

In the five-colored fire pool behind it, the fire waves churned violently. A huge, unparalleled fire bird flapped its wings and flew out of it. A huge silver beak pecked down fiercely.

"Don't..." Han Li had just begun to speak, but it was already too late.

The fire bird's sharp beak had already pecked the metal beast into two pieces, and then its tongue rolled it up and swallowed it into its belly.

"What a pity!"

Han Li was still in the motion of waving his hand to stop it, but he was frozen in place, sighing softly in his heart.

Seeing Han Li's expression, the fire bird tilted its head slightly, looking at Han Li, seemingly not understanding his meaning.

"Forget it, forget it, it's eaten, it's eaten. Later, when I find Xiao Bai, it wouldn't be bad to let that guy guard the house." Han Li smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, saying.

As he spoke, he had already put away the True Spirit Bloodline power and returned to his human form.

The huge fire bird also shrunk in size. With the surging flames of the five-colored fire pool, it came to the edge of the fire pool.

Han Li walked forward and saw that in one of the wings held up by the fire bird, there were four round beads lying quietly, about the size of longan pits. Their colors were "yellow, green, cyan, and blue," corresponding to the colors of the fire pool.

The four beads shone brightly, and waves of suffocating heat were constantly released from them.

"Seven-Colored Fire Dan Sand, there's so much?" Han Li said in surprise.

The fire bird opened and closed its beak a few times, but no sound came out. Han Li understood its meaning:

"You mean there's still a crimson Dan Sand, and you've already eaten it?"

The fire bird immediately nodded happily, causing the flames in the five-colored fire pool to ripple.

"Hehe, that's good. If you refine and absorb all these Seven-Colored Fire Dan Sand, the power of your Strange Fire will be raised another level. Even the legendary Burning Heavens and Refining Earth might not be impossible." Han Li was overjoyed and laughed loudly.

The fire bird was extremely excited. It leaned backward, like swimming on its back, and lay down in the fire pool. Without seeing how its wings moved, its body glided backward comfortably.

"You stay here and refine those Fire Dan Sand properly. I'll go and look for any other mechanisms. If anything unexpected happens, immediately contact me with your mind and notify me, and I'll come find you." Han Li pondered slightly and instructed.

The latter leaped high in the fire pool and then dived down, indicating that it understood.

Han Li checked the area around the five-colored fire pool for a while, and after finding nothing amiss, he turned and walked into the passage he had come from.

After passing through an underground passage that was several hundred zhang long, the terrain gradually climbed higher, and Han Li also walked out of the cave.

After leaving the cave, Han Li came out from behind a screen blocking the entrance and arrived in a golden hall.

The hall was empty, with not much furniture. Only three circular white jade futons were placed in front of the hall, engraved with circles of ring-shaped patterns, overlapping like a maze.

Han Li just stared at it for a while and felt a little dizzy. He quickly calmed his mind, and his eyes returned to normal.

"A bit interesting..."

He said with a smile and stepped forward to examine it carefully for a while. He discovered that the three white jade futons were connected to the ground and could not be moved at all.

However, other than that, there was nothing strange about it. Whether he probed with his divine sense or tested with his immortal spiritual power, the three white jade futons remained motionless, without the slightest change.

After looking at it for a while, Han Li lost interest, pushed open the hall door, and walked out.

When he came outside the hall, he realized that he had already arrived in the golden buildings that he had seen from afar.

Outside the hall was a white stone square, with only a stone sundial in the center. Otherwise, it was also empty.

And at the other end of the white stone square was the tall mansion gate of this building.

Han Li was not in a hurry to leave the mansion. Instead, he walked around the side of the hall along a path. After passing through a circular arched door, he came to a flower garden.

Many spiritual flowers and trees were planted in the flower garden. Some of them were in full bloom, and flowers radiating spiritual energy of heaven and earth bloomed all over the garden in a riot of color.

Han Li stepped into it, and his expression couldn't help but change slightly. Just like the feeling he had had near the spring before, he once again sensed a wisp of the power of the law of time, seemingly present and yet not.

However, this power was too scattered. Although he concentrated with all his might to feel it, he still couldn't find a fixed point. He only felt that the power seemed to permeate every spiritual flower around him, but he couldn't feel it deeply enough in any one of them.

Han Li picked a nine-petaled purple昙 at random and examined it carefully, and found that there was only a little spiritual energy residue on it, and it did not contain any power of the law of time.

"It's really strange..." Han Li sighed softly and continued to walk towards the back of the courtyard.

After passing through the flower garden, behind it was a separate small courtyard, with left and right wing rooms and three main rooms.

Han Li first entered the left wing room. The furnishings in the room were also quite simple, with only a few bookshelves placed against the wall, densely packed with books and records.

He randomly took down a book, flipped through it a little, and found that it didn't seem to be a profound secret book, but only some ordinary secular poems and essays.

Han Li was puzzled, so he took down another book. After flipping through it, the expression on his face became even stranger, because the ancient book he was holding at the moment was neither a cultivation method nor a collection of poetry and essays, but an erotic novel.

"Hehe, it seems that the owner of this immortal mansion has a truly wide range of interests!" Han Li muttered to himself with some emotion.

He stayed in the room that should have been used as a study for a while, and then turned and left the room, going to the opposite wing room.

There were quite a few furnishings in the room over there, but they were all gold and stone artifacts, beads, jades, and porcelain. As for magic treasures and immortal artifacts, there were none.

Han Li browsed all the way down and felt quite helpless about the aesthetic tastes of the original owner of the immortal mansion. All his collections were gilded and silver-carved, and full of brocade flowers, making people think at a glance that this was the kind of aesthetic that only the newly rich of the city should have.

When he arrived at the last main room, Han Li had originally given up any hope, but he found that it was actually an alchemy room.

In the center of the pill chamber was a pill furnace that was half a person tall, and on the left and right were placed two ebony shelves, on which were placed many bottles and jars of different sizes and colors.

Han Li checked it slightly and found that the flames in the pill furnace had already been extinguished. However, there were quite a few pills in the bottles on the wooden shelves. The highest grade was the Spirit Sea Pill suitable for Taiyi cultivators, and the lowest was the Dragonscale Pill suitable for Golden Immortal cultivators.

"At least there's some harvest." Han Li sighed and put away all the pills.

As he was about to leave, he suddenly frowned and his eyes fell on the pill furnace whose fire had been extinguished.

"What is this?"

Han Li's heart moved slightly and he sensed a faint spiritual power fluctuation.

He stepped forward, raised his hand, and patted the pill furnace. With an upward flick, the lid of the pill furnace suddenly flew up and fell to the side.

As soon as the lid was lifted, a piece of golden light flowed out of the pill furnace, which actually contained an extremely strong wave of the law of time, causing Han Li to change his expression slightly.

He bent down and looked, and found that there were ten golden pills about the size of longan pits lying quietly at the bottom of the furnace.

Han Li hooked his hand casually, picked up one of them, and examined it carefully for a moment, and couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Although the medicinal power is strong, it is scattered and uncoagulated. It is obviously about to become a pill. What was the master delayed by? Why didn't he refine it?" Han Li pondered to himself.

After hesitating slightly, he put the pill back and waved his hand, resealing the lid of the furnace.

Then, his heart moved, and he was about to summon the Firebird to help him refine pills, but then he remembered that the Firebird was currently refining the Seven-Colored Fire Dan Sand, so he could only smile awkwardly, and in front of him, he ignited the pill furnace with his own infant fire.

The raging flames burned continuously, and forty-nine days passed in a flash.

Golden light flashed frequently in the alchemy room. The golden mist above the pill furnace condensed and did not disperse, gathering into a mist团 that looked like a ganoderma.

Han Li sat cross-legged on the side, looking at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but admire:

"It was actually refined using 流火灵芝 as the main ingredient. No wonder the power of the law of time contained in it is so strong. It has been placed for an unknown number of years, but it still has such a formation of pill-forming air."

After saying that, he raised his hand and beckoned, and the infant fire in the furnace immediately rolled back and flew into his body.

As soon as the furnace fire went out, the strange phenomena on the pill furnace still condensed and did not disperse until Han Li waved his hand at random and removed the furnace lid, and then all the mist gradually dissipated.

He fixed his eyes and looked into the furnace, and saw that among the ten pills, three of them were covered with cracks and had already been ruined.

The remaining seven pills were shining with divine light, and there were four clusters of Dao patterns floating on them, from which bursts of intense waves of the law of time were emitted. They were actually seven Dao Pills of rather high grade.

With these pills, cultivating the Grand Five Elements Illusionary World Technique will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort!
