A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality - Chapter 865 - Chapter 865 Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spirit Treasures Chapter 862 Flying Swords and Puppets

Chapter 865: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spirit Treasures Chapter 862 Flying Swords and Puppets Chapter 865: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spirit Treasures Chapter 862 Flying Swords and Puppets Han Li sighed in his heart.

Although he had obtained many spiritual medicines from the remains of the Spirit Ether Garden, none of them could extend life.

He felt powerless about it.

“Senior Martial Brother, there’s no need to be too disheartened.

Perhaps in the coming years, another opportunity might arise!” Han Li could only offer consolation.

The elder shook his head with an indifferent look, seemingly having thoroughly understood the matters of life and death.

Han Li naturally didn’t bring up the matter again, but instead flipped his hand, producing a white jade slip in his palm:
“Since the two Senior Martial Brothers have come, I just remembered something.

I need some materials collected from various city markets by the sect’s disciples.

Since there are many types needed, they can collect as much as they can.

Just do their best.

As for the price of these items, no matter how many spirit stones, as long as it’s not too outrageous, let the sect disciples take it and they can come to me for reimbursement later,” Han Li said casually, passing the jade slip.

“Let me have a look!” Lu Luo, somewhat interested, took the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense, his expression gradually turning curious.

“Junior Martial Brother, no wonder you said just do their best.

Most of these items are hard to find.

Some seem to be only legendary, probably non-existent in Tian Luo,” Lu Luo said, stunned.

“Oh, what kind of materials are they?

Let your brother have a look too!” Senior Martial Brother Cheng heard this and, curious, stretched out his hand to take the jade slip and looked through it, soon also appearing somewhat surprised.

“Indeed, all are difficult to find items.

Junior Martial Brother, are you going to refine another Daoist paper talisman?”
“Daoist paper talisman?

Well, sort of!” Han Li smiled faintly, without explaining in detail.

Seeing this, Senior Martial Brother Cheng didn’t inquire further but readily agreed to the task, saying he would immediately arrange for the sect disciples to collect these materials throughout Tian Luo.

At this point, the elder and Lu Luo exchanged glances, and suddenly, Lu Luo took off a bulging storage pouch at his waist and handed it to Han Li.

“What is this?” Han Li was a bit surprised, subconsciously taking the item and looking puzzledly at the two men.

“Junior Martial Brother, could it be that you forgot?

Years ago, you had the sect disciples collect some peculiar materials and Auric Essence for you.

Over the years, apart from receiving only a small piece of Auric Essence, the rest of the items have all been collected.

I originally wanted to surprise you, Junior Martial Brother, but it turns out you need more materials.

It seems your skill in Artifact Refining is extraordinary,” Lu Luo said with a smile.

“Another piece of Auric Essence?” Han Li’s heart leapt with joy when he heard this and quickly opened the storage pouch to take a look.

Among the many miscellaneous materials, there truly was a walnut-sized piece of golden Auric Essence lying among them.

As for the other materials, they were precisely the few that he needed for refining the Ancient Nascent Soul Puppet.

Otherwise, he would have refined a Nascent Soul-level puppet before entering Devilfall Valley long ago.

“These are exactly the items I need.

Thank you both, Senior Martial Brothers, for the effort.

These items are valuable and must have cost quite a few spirit stones, IaEUR|” Han Li was showing a trace of joy, but when he mentioned the expenses, he was interrupted by the elder’s hearty laugh and shake of the hand.

“Where, Junior Martial Brother.

Although these items are worth some spirit stones, you, Junior Martial Brother, represented our sect in the battle twice during The Moulan invasion.

It is only right for the sect to pay some spirit stones on behalf of Junior Martial Brother.

Just take them and use them.”
“Since Senior Brother has said so, then I won’t be polite,” Han Li was momentarily stunned, but after thinking it over, he smiled and freely put away the storage pouch.

Seeing that Han Li did not refuse any further, the elder also showed a satisfied expression.

“By the way, Senior Martial Brother Cheng.

When I was sucked into a tear in space, there were two flying swords I didn’t manage to retrieve in time.

Did Senior Brother happen to see them?” Han Li recalled another matter and asked without further thought.

Back then, he was sucked into the tear in space and didn’t know their whereabouts; the elder was always outside and should know the fate of the flying swords.

“About that, Junior Martial Brother, I wanted to mention it too.

The two flying swords you left outside that day, I couldn’t manage to retrieve them in time.

They were grabbed by that demon and fell into its hands.

However, later, when they besieged the demon, I heard people say it didn’t use the flying swords to fight, suggesting that it couldn’t demonize your Life Origin Flying Swords for use.

The only trouble is, the whereabouts of this demon are now unknown; it might be difficult to retrieve those swords,” the elder seemed to have anticipated this, saying with some regret.

“In the ancient demon’s possession?

That’s somewhat troublesome.

But no matter, they are just external possessions.

I’ll just refine two more,” Han Li’s expression flickered slightly, but soon returned to normal.

“I suppose so.

Junior Martial Brother has many Life Origin Flying Swords, losing two doesn’t count for much.

It’s unnecessary to risk the unknown to search for this demon,” the elder relaxed a bit, seeming reassured.

Speaking of the fear of that demon, Senior Martial Brother Cheng was even more worried than Han Li-naturally not wanting any accidents to befall Han Li, the Drifting Cloud Sect Elder, who was key to the sect’s potential brilliance in the realm of immortal cultivators.

Afterwards, Senior Martial Brother Cheng and Lu Luo had a chat with Han Li for a while, discussing some matters of the sect, and then they took their leave together.

Han Li rose to his feet and escorted the two men out of the large restrictive formation before leisurely returning to his cave dwelling.

“Master, now that you’ve obtained another piece of Auric Essence, doesn’t it mean that you could refine two more flying swords and redeploy the Aureate Sword Formation?” As soon as he walked into the hall, the walls flickered with silver light, and Silvermoon appeared silently, smiling as she spoke.

“How could it be that simple?

The Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword is a complete set of magic treasures, and this piece of Auric Essence isn’t sufficient to refine another set of twelve flying swords.

Even if the missing two swords were replaced with other flying swords, they wouldn’t be able to be manipulated as desired.

Even if I forcefully activated the Aureate Sword Formation, it wouldn’t be able to trap the opponents.

Those two lost flying swords must be recovered.” Upon hearing Silvermoon mention this, Han Li’s expression suddenly darkened.

“But those two flying swords have fallen into the hands of ancient devilish techniques.

Master, although your cultivation has greatly increased, if the ancient devil isn’t dead, you might still not be able to match it,” Silvermoon said with some worry.

“I know that without you saying it.

I won’t act recklessly without full confidence.

I will only go searching for this devil after I have opened the Heavenvoid Cauldron or refined the replica of the Seven Flames Fan,” Han Li’s gaze flickered several times as he resettled in his seat of honor, speaking solemnly.

“Han Li, how could you forget the puppet I developed?

Although the ancient devil is formidable, if you gather the materials and refine this puppet, though you might not be assured of victory, your safety is more than guaranteed,” the voice of Monarch Great Development suddenly transmitted into Han Li’s Divine Sense, sounding somewhat indignant that his puppet hadn’t been mentioned.

A faint smile appeared on Han Li’s lips.

“Senior, you expended so much effort on this puppet.

Naturally, I believe it is extraordinary.

Moreover, judging from the rarity of the refining materials, the puppet is certainly incredibly powerful.

However, since senior has always been secretive about the refining method and the uses of the puppet, how can I be confident in it?”
“Hmph!

You don’t need to provoke me.

Until you gather the materials, I won’t reveal a single piece of information about the puppet.

I can only tell you, if this puppet is created, its power will be not less than my own at my peak.

You should know what that implies,” Monarch Great Development said arrogantly.

“Not less than your peak?” This time, Han Li was truly shocked, and disbelief crossed his face.

“What, you don’t believe it?” Monarch Great Development’s voice suddenly turned cold, seemingly displeased.

“It’s not about belief or disbelief!

This puppet is also a recent creation by senior.

What its power will be once created is probably only a guess even for you,” Han Li’s expression became calm again as he spoke lightly.

“Ha ha!

Well said.

Nevertheless, with my wisdom, how could I miscalculate the power of a puppet I developed?

You can be assured of that,” Monarch Great Development’s mood swung wildly and he laughed heartily again.

Han Li faintly smiled, no longer paying attention to him, and stood up to walk towards the secret chamber.

Although he was supposed to attend the so-called ceremony tomorrow, it was best to refine the remaining Celestial Ice Flame sooner.

After refining the Celestial Ice Flame, it looked like he would need some time to create two Ancient Nascent Soul Puppets with the newly obtained materials.

With this in mind, he touched the new storage pouch at his waist.

He had previously seen the malevolent ghost puppets manipulated by Daoist Heavencrystal in Devilfall Valley.

Although they couldn’t last long against the ancient devil, their strength was indeed formidable, comparable to an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

With these thoughts, Han Li entered the secret chamber.

Early the next day, Han Li and Senior Martial Brother Cheng joined together and headed straight for the Hundred Possibilities Pavilion.

Since the three families shared a mountain range, they soon reached the other end of the Dreamcloud Mountains where the Hundred Possibilities Pavilion’s sect resided.

Thinking back, Han Li had once attended a sword-trial conference here as a junior disciple.

Now, the recollection seemed somewhat amusing.

As soon as Han Li and the others flew near the Drifting Cloud Sect’s large restrictive formation, three Core Formation cultivators, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately turned into streaks of light to greet them.

“Greetings to the three seniors, we are here by several martial uncles’ order to welcome the seniors,” the leading elder suppressed his radiance and materialized in front of Han Li and the others, offering a deep bow and greeting.

The other two middle-aged cultivators also performed similar rites.

“There’s no need for formalities, lead the way ahead,” Senior Martial Brother Cheng said with a benign smile.

However, Han Li’s gaze lingered on the elder’s face, revealing an ambiguous smile.

Coincidentally, this elder was the one who had presided over the sword-trial conference back in the day.

With a cultivator’s strong memory, it was impossible for him not to recognize Han Li now, yet his face betrayed no hint of recognition.

It seemed that although his cultivation level was lower, his schemes were indeed profoundly deep.
