Wang Yu

Chapter 1243: Fortune and Misfortune Depend on Each Other

"Master, your aura..." Ti Hun sized up Han Li for a moment, then her expression suddenly changed, and she transmitted a message.

"You've noticed it too. My aura is very unstable. The Corpse Severing Immortal Talisman isn't just for splitting the Evil Corpse's soul, it also promotes my cultivation to a certain extent, but my current state is very strange... In addition to the four hundred and sixty immortal apertures I had already opened, there are now three hundred and eighty immortal apertures in a half-open, half-closed state." Han Li sighed and replied.

He himself was unclear about the current situation, only vaguely feeling that it was the power of the Corpse Severing Immortal Talisman that barely raised his immortal apertures to eight hundred and forty.

Because eight hundred and forty immortal apertures connected was precisely the threshold for entering the Great Luo mid-stage, and also the basis for separating the Evil Corpse. His current state, however, was with one foot across the threshold, and the other foot firmly trapped outside the door, a rather awkward situation.

"But as it is now, Master, your cultivation seems to be quite a bit higher than before," Ti Hun said.

Lan Yan had felt alarmed and uneasy just now, but seeing Han Li wake up and hearing him say this, her heart calmed down for no reason.

"Master, what do we do next? That Qu Lin also seems to want to find Jin Tong. Are we going after him, or..." Ti Hun hesitated slightly and asked.

Han Li was also hesitant and uncertain, with a pensive look on his face.

"Master, I can sense Boss's aura, quickly let me out." At that moment, Xiao Bai's voice sounded in Han Li's mind.

Han Li's face lit up, and with a wave of his hand, he released Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai had transformed into a Pi Xiu form about ten feet in size. As soon as it appeared, it immediately sniffed hard in the air with its nose.

"This way." It ran wildly on all fours, flying towards the depths of the collapsed underground space, and quickly arrived in front of the stone door at the deepest part of the underground space.

Half of the stone door had been shattered and collapsed at the moment, not knowing whether it was damaged by the recent fierce battle.

Xiao Bai's body "whooshed" and shot into the stone door from the half-open side.

Han Li hurriedly followed with Ti Hun and Lan Yan.

Behind the stone door was another passage, but it was not very long, and they quickly reached the end.

At the bottom of the passage was another tightly closed stone door.

The stone door radiated a dark metallic luster, giving people a sense of indestructibility. There was also a layer of rich black light on the stone door, with countless worm-like runes wriggling within, forming a complex magic circle.

Xiao Bai opened its mouth and spat out a white light, with countless runes tumbling within, hitting the stone door fiercely.

With a "bang", a dazzling white light exploded on the stone door.

The stone door trembled loudly, and the black magic circle on it was also intensely chaotic, emitting ripples of black light like water waves, but stubbornly resisted the impact of the white light.

Xiao Bai frowned, about to strike again.

At that moment, Han Li had already arrived from behind, and without thinking, he flicked several fingers in succession.

Seven or eight golden sword energies shot out, with golden arcs of electricity flashing on the sword energies, bursting out with astonishing lightning laws, slashing onto the stone door like shooting stars.

"Bang", "bang", "bang", a series of loud noises, and balls of golden light exploded on the stone door, easily tearing apart the magic circle on the stone door.

Rumble!

Streaks of golden electric arcs flashed, and the stone door behind also exploded, turning into a pile of rubble.

Seeing this scene, Han Li felt a slight joy in his heart.

Now, with the three hundred-odd immortal apertures on his body half-open and half-closed, the amplitude of absorbing and exhaling heaven and earth vitality had increased sharply, and the power of urging the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords had also greatly increased. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.

"Let's go." Han Li called out to the others to continue forward.

The space ahead suddenly opened up, and another dark-green stone chamber appeared.

Although this stone chamber was smaller than the previous underground space, it was filled with many things and was not empty.

In the center of the dark-green stone chamber was a giant magic circle, shaped like a nine-palace grid. In the center of the magic circle was a black jade crystal coffin, the purpose of which was unknown.

Around the stone chamber were seven or eight smaller rooms, distributed in a scattered and orderly manner, looking very much like a cave dwelling.

"Could this be Gui Lingzi's cave dwelling?" Han Li scanned his eyes around and speculated in his heart.

But Ti Hun ignored everything else, staring at the black crystal coffin within the magic circle, and a strange light appeared in her eyes.

"Boss's scent is coming from here." Xiao Bai flew and landed in front of a room, raised its paw, and pushed on the door.

With a "boom", the stone door was easily pushed open. There were unexpectedly no restrictions placed on the door.

Han Li and Lan Yan hurriedly flew over and landed in front of the room.

The space inside the room was quite large. In the very center was a huge cage, all white and sparkling, obviously made of some kind of special precious jade.

The cage was engraved with spiritual patterns, and there were many talismans pasted on it, obviously used to imprison something.

However, a corner of the cage had a large hole, with uneven edges, as if it had been bitten open with teeth.

"This..." Xiao Bai was stunned when it saw the scene in front of it.

Han Li also frowned, squatted down next to the broken hole in the cage, and smeared a finger on the break.

"That's right, judging from the aura remaining on this break, it is Jin Tong's... It seems that she was imprisoned here all along. But from the look of things, Jin Tong should have bitten through the cage and escaped on her own. Moreover, the bite marks on this break are very fresh, it should have happened recently." Han Li put his finger on his brow and sensed for a moment, and said with a frown.

"Since Jin Tong has already escaped, and we can't track her..." Lan Yan said with some worry.

"We can't sense Jin Tong, but we can track that Qu Lin," Han Li said slowly.

"That's right, that Qu Lin just left, there should be traces left behind, let's hurry up and chase after him." Xiao Bai's face lit up with excitement, and it turned around and was about to fly back the way it came.

"Wait a minute, this looks like Gui Lingzi's cave dwelling, since we've arrived here, we can't come for nothing." Han Li reached out and grabbed Xiao Bai, and looked towards the other rooms in the stone chamber, saying with a smile.

"Master is still the smartest, that Gui Lingzi dared to capture Boss, we'll just raid his lair." Xiao Bai laughed evilly when it heard this.

Before the words were finished, it immediately flew towards a room next to it and kicked the door hard with its foot.

There were restrictions on the stone door of this room, but they were not strong. Obviously, Gui Lingzi did not expect anyone to dare to brazenly come to his cave dwelling to cause trouble. With a loud "boom", the stone door was kicked open by Xiao Bai.

Lan Yan also flew in front of a room, shot out a blue light, and bombarded the door of the room.

Han Li flashed to another room and flicked his finger.

A golden sword energy shot out like lightning, breaking the door of the room.

The space inside this room was also quite large, about twenty to thirty feet in size, and there were wooden shelves placed inside, on which were placed various mineral materials.

"Gold and silver patterned stone, blood-transforming crystal, Guangling jade..." Han Li's gaze swept across the shelves, and his eyes lit up slightly.

The quality of these materials was extremely high, even higher than his own collection, and the quantity was even more considerable, which was perfect for him, who was currently worried about how to obtain a large amount of immortal essence stones.

Han Li waved his hands, and two streams of azure light flew out, rolled up these materials, and together with those shelves, put them into the Flower Branch Space.

The situation was now urgent, he quickly collected them, and after a few breaths, he collected all the materials in the room, then turned around and came to another room, waving his hand to blast open the door.

Inside this room was a golden cauldron more than one person tall, shaped like an octagon. Although the cauldron was not being urged at the moment, it still emitted an astonishing spiritual energy fluctuation.

There was nothing else in the room besides the cauldron. It seemed to be an alchemy room.

Gui Lingzi had almost killed him just now, so Han Li would naturally not be polite to this person, and this cauldron also looked quite extraordinary, and selling it would be worth a lot of immortal essence stones.

Han Li waved his hand again, sending out a stream of azure light, rolled up the cauldron, put it into the Flower Branch Space, and then came to the third room.

This room was not big, and there was only a stone table inside, covered by a layer of black light.

On the table were a dozen black crystal balls the size of fists. Each crystal ball was filled with jumping black flames, and even through the light curtain, one could feel the astonishing power of the yin soul.

"Profound Yin Divine Thunder! There are actually more than a dozen of them!" A voice sounded behind Han Li, and it was Lan Yan who had come over, with a face full of surprise.

"Profound Yin Divine Thunder?" Han Li glanced at Lan Yan.

"Profound Yin Divine Thunder is a unique Yin Thunder divine ability refined by Gui Lingzi, with extremely great power, enough to threaten the existence of the Great Luo early stage. Fortunately, Gui Lingzi did not bring these Yin Thunder on his body, otherwise we would have really been in danger just now." Lan Yan looked like she had some lingering fears.

Han Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he flicked his finger.

A golden thunder and lightning hit the black shield near the stone table, easily shattering it.

But at that moment, the dozen or so black crystal balls inside suddenly bloomed with dazzling black light, and the black flames in the crystal balls also had a tendency to erupt.

Han Li's expression changed slightly, and he was about to use a spell to suppress them.

At that moment, a black light shot from behind, spreading out with a whoosh, covering the dozen or so black crystal balls.

A power of law rippled in the black light, and the black flames in the crystal balls immediately stabilized.

"These Yin Thunders have not been completely refined yet, and your All-Heaven Divine Thunder is the nemesis of all Yin attributes, which can easily stimulate the explosion of these Yin Thunders." Ti Hun came over at some unknown time and said.

"If that's the case, then I'll leave these Profound Yin Divine Thunders to you for safekeeping," Han Li said lightly.

When Ti Hun heard this, her body trembled slightly, and then an excited look appeared on her face: "Thank you, Master."

After saying this, she quickly formed hand seals with both hands, and the black light wrapped the Profound Yin Divine Thunder and flew back to her.

Ti Hun chanted something in her mouth, and formed hand seals as fast as wheels with both hands.

A layer of black and bright light was added around the dozen black crystal balls, as if a thick layer of paint had been brushed on. The black flames in the balls were completely stabilized before flying into her sleeve.

Xiao Bai also flew over at this moment, having transformed into a human form, with a smile on his face.

The doors of the other rooms in the stone chamber were broken, and it was obvious that the things inside had been searched clean.
