Chapter 26 Murals

Approximately a quarter of an hour later, the doors of the three-story pavilion abruptly opened, and Han Li emerged, his face full of joy.

Upon arriving outside, he suddenly turned around, forming a hand seal and silently chanting for a moment before uttering the word "收" (shōu - 收 in Pinyin).

Immediately, a large expanse of golden light surged around the three-story pavilion, with countless runes swirling up and down within it. With a flash of light, it suddenly contracted towards the center. The original three-story pavilion, over ten zhang tall, actually shrunk to the size of a lantern and was casually swept into his storage bracelet.

"This treasure is more than sufficient to trap several mid-stage True Immortal cultivators, and even late-stage cultivators who haven't cultivated strengthening soul techniques can barely manage. As for peak True Immortal or even Golden Immortal cultivators, it's a bit beyond its capabilities. Fortunately, it can be used in conjunction with other magical treasures, so it's still a powerful auxiliary magical treasure," Han Li mused.

While he was pondering, he heard a series of "轰隆" (hōng lōng - rumbling) sounds coming from the direction of the three great halls. He quickly looked over and realized that the sounds were coming from Xue Han and the others as they were breaking into the halls.

"Han Daoyou, come here quickly."

At that moment, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind, it was Xie Daoren contacting him telepathically, calling him to a specific location.

So he quickly set off, and with a few swift leaps, landed in a somewhat desolate courtyard overgrown with weeds.

Inside the courtyard's side room, several Dao soldiers were busily searching for treasures. The main room's door was wide open, allowing a clear view of Xie Daoren's back.

Han Li entered the hall and saw Xie Daoren staring at a wall in front of him.

"I didn't find any impressive magical treasures in this courtyard. Only the murals on the walls seem to have some interest," Xie Daoren said slowly without turning around.

Hearing this, Han Li's gaze swept around and saw that all the surrounding walls were covered in paintings, vibrant in color and rich in imagery.

The content of the murals was quite miscellaneous, and the scenes depicted were very chaotic. Collapsed mountain peaks and fragmented earth were everywhere, with lava intertwined and storms and lightning intersecting. It was practically an apocalyptic scene.

Han Li stared unblinkingly at the murals and suddenly felt that the scenes on them were moving. Magma surged on the earth, fireballs fell from the sky, black clouds rolled between flashes of lightning and thunder, and storms raged.

Many figures dressed in various styles of clothing flashed back and forth within them, some making gestures and chanting spells, others holding halberds and spears, and still others engaging in hand-to-hand combat... a variety of appearances.

Here, a starry sky collapsed, and countless stars fell to earth. There, ten thousand swords were fired simultaneously, and countless sword beams stirred the earth and overturned the heavens. One could see fire descending and burning the snow-covered earth, and one could see black water overflowing and swallowing countless mountain peaks...

In addition to the battles between cultivators, the murals also depicted many colossal exotic beasts, each one looking ferocious and bizarre, spewing fire and lightning, devouring the earth, and possessing various abilities.

Han Li, who had learned a lot about ancient exotic beasts due to his cultivation of the Amazing Insects Twelve Transformations, still couldn't discern the origins of the ferocious beasts depicted on the murals.

The various scenes depicted in the murals were clearly a large-scale battle of immortals. The degree of its tragedy, although only displayed on the murals, seemed to be happening right in front of him. The shocking scenes made Han Li feel a chill down his spine.

Amidst the shock, Han Li couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Judging from the depiction on the murals, the clear figures seemed to be from the same camp, while the opposing side they were fighting against had blurry faces, as if shrouded in a layer of gray mist.

They looked like cultivators, but they didn't seem quite the same as cultivators.

"Han Daoyou, do you know when and where the battle depicted in these murals took place?" Xie Daoren suddenly asked.

"I don't know. Does Xie Daoyou know?" Han Li asked, startled, shaking his head.

He tried to recall the historical records and books he had read in the Northern Cold Immortal Domain over the years, but couldn't find any battle that corresponded to it.

"I don't know either. I just thought these murals were very strange, so I wanted you to take a look," Xie Daoren said, shaking his head.

Han Li felt slightly disappointed, thinking he could get some answers from Xie Daoren.

However, this was originally an unimportant matter. Since neither of them knew, there was no need to pay too much attention to it.

After that, he and Xie Daoren searched some more buildings together. Although they found many treasures one after another, their grades were uneven. Not many of them were suitable for him now, but if they were taken to the outside world, they could naturally be exchanged for many Immortal Essence Stones.

When the agreed time arrived, Han Li put away Xie Daoren and those Dao soldiers and returned to the previous place.

Lu Yuqing and Leng Yan Old Ancestor were already waiting, the former's pretty face with a hint of unfulfilled excitement, and the latter's expression as usual, seemed to have returned to the previous composure, can not see anything.

After the three people meet, continue toward the back mountain spirit medicine garden direction to rush.

Not long after, Han Li and the three landed on a clearing. On this open space, there was a square garden, which was more than ten mu in size.

The garden was surrounded by a circle of courtyard walls about four or five zhang high, all built with a light blue crystal stone.

The crystal stone emitted a layer of water-like blue crystal light, which was also mixed with starlight-like light spots, giving people a pleasing feeling, which was very extraordinary.

Han Li's face flashed with a hint of surprise as he scanned the area.

He recognized the blue crystal stone, which was a rather precious material crystal stone that could be used to refine spirit treasures. Although it was not difficult to find in the outside world, such a huge amount was really staggering. Now it was being used as a brick to build the courtyard wall. The original owner was extremely extravagant.

At the four corners of the courtyard wall, there were thick stone pillars, each engraved with complex array patterns.

Bright starlight emanated from the four stone pillars, forming a thick star curtain in the air, covering the entire courtyard.

Countless galaxy patterns flashed across the light curtain, as if evolving the various changes of the vast starry sky, which was extremely mysterious.

From the outside, one could vaguely see various spirit herbs planted in the courtyard, and a faint fragrance of spirit herbs emanated from it, which was fragrant and refreshing, and the restriction could not be isolated.

Han Li's eyes lit up, and then he carefully looked at the star curtain, and his brow could not help but wrinkle again.

This star curtain and the layer of starlight restriction that was broken before entering the Youhan Palace had some similarities, and the restriction here seemed to be more mysterious, and it would not be easy to break it.

"This star restriction is very extraordinary, and it may be difficult to break it with ordinary methods. However, the Great Five Elements Spirit-Seizing True Light Divine Power previously used by Leng Yan Daoyou and that Xiong Daoyou is extremely magical and is just right for breaking the restriction." Han Li looked at the restriction a few times, and suddenly said to Leng Yan Old Ancestor beside him.

Hearing this, Leng Yan Old Ancestor looked embarrassed and said, "Han Daoyou, although I know the incantation of the Great Five Elements Spirit-Seizing True Light, I need five extremely pure five elements spirit treasures to cast it. At present, I only have fire and earth spirit treasures in my hand, I am afraid..."

"It doesn't matter, I happen to have three spirit treasures with gold, wood, and water attributes on my body, which are still considered pure, and should be enough to use this supernatural power," Han Li said, and then raised his hand and opened his five fingers.

Three colors of light, gold, green and blue, alternately emerged, and when the light was restrained, it was a golden ring, a green wooden knife, and a blue token.

The three spirit treasures all emitted pure and bright amazing spiritual light, not inferior to the five spirit treasures before Leng Yan Old Ancestor and Xiong Shan.

Han Li has killed countless monks over the years, most of whom are True Immortal Realm existences, and a few spirit treasures are naturally nothing.

"Han Daoyou is really rich. If that's the case, then there is naturally no problem. This is the incantation of the Great Five Elements Spirit-Seizing True Light. It is a bit obscure and difficult to understand, but with Han Daoyou's intelligence, there will definitely be no problem." Leng Yan Old Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief and praised.

After the words fell, he turned his palm and took out a jade slip and handed it over with both hands.

Han Li took the jade slip with one hand and released his spiritual sense to enter it.

The incantation recorded in the jade slip was not long, but it was indeed as Leng Yan Old Ancestor said, quite difficult and obscure.

He quickly read it all and memorized it all by heart, then sat cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes and pondered.

"Senior Leng Yan, let's protect Han Dage." Seeing this, Lu Yuqing said to Leng Yan Old Ancestor.

"That's right." The latter nodded.

Then the two retreated a distance, leaving an area for Han Li, while looking around.

About half an hour later, Han Li suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

Seeing this, Lu Yuqing and Leng Yan Old Ancestor in the distance cast their eyes at the same time.

I saw Han Li chanting words in his mouth, and then pointed his finger at the three spirit treasures in front of him.

The three spirit treasures immediately flew out, each blooming a dazzling light.

Han Li pinched his fingers, and the three colors of light faintly combined with each other, as if they were about to merge into one.

"Han Daoyou, you have comprehended it so quickly!" Leng Yan Old Ancestor was a little dumbfounded.

"Han has cultivated a supernatural power that uses the five elements together before, so he has comprehended it a little faster." Han Li said with a hey smile.

His natural is the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, the five elements related secret arts are broad and profound, and the various changes of life and restraint are endless, especially this Great Five Elements Spirit-Seizing True Light is even more complicated and difficult to understand, but the cultivation incantation of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light is quite similar to it, and there are many similarities, so he can comprehend it so quickly.

"Han Daoyou is really good at making people marvel." Leng Yan Old Ancestor chuckled, as if he had long been accustomed to Han Li's unexpected performance from time to time.

So he didn't say any more, turned his hand and sacrificed the red bowl and yellow seal, and cast a spell in his mouth.

The two spirit treasures also flew out, and under the circulation of the spirit patterns, they bloomed with dazzling spirit light and flew into the spirit light group of Han Li's three spirit treasures.
