A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

Han Li, who was in the VIP building, played with the Wooden Spirit Pearl for a while and was about to put it away with the other two treasures when he suddenly heard the faint voice of a boy.

"Fellow Daoist Han, do you really plan to keep this bead like this?"

"Why, is there something wrong with this spirit-gathering bead?" Han Li was startled and asked with a slight frown.

"Hey, there is nothing wrong with the bead itself, but do you know that the Spirit Gathering Bead is actually a failed semi-finished treasure. If you practice with this bead like this, you will indeed make great progress in your early stages, and your magic power will improve rapidly. , but when your cultivation reaches a certain level and encounters a bottleneck, you will discover the disadvantages. High-level monks who use this bead to practice will have a much harder time breaking through the bottleneck than other monks. Because they rely on the absorption of a single spiritual energy, their skills will be reduced. At the same time that the Dharma is greatly advanced, it is actually weakening your ability to sense other kinds of spiritual energy in disguise. For monks below the Nascent Soul stage, this disadvantage is not obvious. But for someone like you who needs to sense various kinds of heaven and earth energy, you can For monks who have made breakthroughs, the gains outweigh the losses. Therefore, although this spirit-gathering bead is strange, in the spiritual world it is mostly used by low-level disciples with low qualifications to quickly improve their cultivation. Higher-level cultivators will not do this at all. It's a matter of overthrowing a young person's talent and encouraging its growth." The boy explained carefully.

"Is there such a thing? In this way, this treasure will hinder me from advancing to become a god, and it is actually useless to me." Han Li's face changed slightly after hearing this, and he looked at the emerald-green beads in his hand, his face flashing. A hint of anger came over.

"Didn't I just say that? This bead is just a semi-finished treasure. If you can find several other rare wood-attribute materials, you can transform it into another kind of treasure, the 'Wood-born Bead'. Although this bead cannot Speed ​​up your cultivation, but after being completely refined by you, it can give you the magical power of an immortal body. Can it save your life in a crisis?" the boy said leisurely.

"Immortal body?" Han Li was stunned when he heard this.

He has been envious of this magical power for a long time. It's just that he has only seen this magical power in some monster beasts with great origins, as well as ancient demons and demonized Tianjue demon corpses. Human monks have never heard of anyone who can cultivate it.

"Yes, a Mu Sheng Pearl is enough for you to cast the Immortal Body once. During the activation time, even if your head falls to the ground and your body is in two parts, you can still recover as before." The boy chuckled.

"Is there such a thing? But it can only be used once. Doesn't it become a consumable treasure?" Han Li was moved and asked doubtfully.

"The Immortal Body can be used once, and it can save your life at some point. What's not to be satisfied with? Besides, in addition to the wood spirit beads, this treasure requires several other materials, which are in the human world. I'm afraid it's not easy to find. Whether it can be refined or not is still a question." The boy snorted dissatisfied.

"What materials are needed? I have collected a lot of wood-type materials." Han Li smiled nonchalantly.

"I will give you a copy of the list of required materials. But if you want me to tell you the refining method, I also need fellow Taoist to give me something in exchange!" The boy was calm and mentioned the conditions directly.

"Oh, whatever Taoist Fellow Tianlan wants, just ask." Han Li felt relieved when he heard what the boy said.

If this Tianlan Holy Beast really told him the refining method without asking for any reward, he would be suspicious.

Although the two had some friendship before due to the Thunder Tribulation incident, after all, there are differences between humans and monsters, and it is mostly due to the entanglement of interests that they can maintain this situation. There was always a hint of vigilance in his heart.

He didn't expect that one person and one demon could really treat each other calmly and trust each other with just these small favors. The reason why the other party was so helpful was probably because he controlled the Xutian Cauldron and was unable to act independently without the cauldron, so he had to bow his head.

"My conditions are not very good. Although I have successfully transformed, I still need to swallow some elixirs to consolidate my realm. With Brother Han's status in Tiannan, he must be able to obtain these elixirs easily." Tongzi Said slowly.

"No problem. Fellow Taoist, please copy what you need into the refining method." Han Li thought about it carefully and replied without thinking.

"Okay, when you return to the cave, I will hand over the list of materials and the refining method to you." The boy was very satisfied with Han Li's straightforwardness.

Han Li smiled when he heard this and put the Wood Spirit Pearl back into the wooden box. Then he turned his palm over and the three treasures were put into the storage bag at the same time.

"Fellow Daoist Tianlan, do you think the Ghost Spirit Sect knows the disadvantages of the Wood Spirit Bead?" Han Li's eyes flashed coldly, and his voice suddenly became colder.

"It's hard to say this. From what you said before, this bead was abandoned by the ancient monks a long time ago, and its disadvantages have not been passed down. If there are Yuanying monks who practice wood-attribute skills in the Ghost Spirit Sect, they can use it. If you pass this bead, you may be able to detect the harm. If not, there is no way to detect it just from the bead itself. What, do you suspect that those three people deliberately used this bead to prevent you from advancing to become a god?" The boy reacted immediately. coming.

"I thought about it this way at first, but now I think about it more carefully. It seems that the Ghost Spirit Sect has no motive to do this! After all, it is just that I was prevented from advancing to become a god. Even if I only stay at the Nascent Soul stage, I am still the number one in Tiannan. Monk. Are they not afraid that I will find out something is wrong and destroy the Ghost Spirit Sect in anger? I'm afraid there is some inside story! Let me think about it, since I can use the Ghost Spirit Sect to do this, the person behind this should probably He is a local monk in Tiannan. And what difference will it make to other people if he prevents me from advancing to become a god? Even if I am not a monk in Tiannan, no one in Tiannan can be my opponent. The only consequence of not being able to advance to become a god , probably because my lifespan cannot be increased and can only be maintained at more than a thousand years. In this way, the time for Luoyun Sect to suppress other sects in Tiannan is greatly shortened. But for ordinary sects, no matter who becomes There is no difference among the largest sects in Tiannan. There are only a few sects that are qualified to be interested in this. Most of them are Huayi Sect, Hehuan Sect, and Taiyi Sect, one of the three major sects, or simply They secretly joined forces together." Han Li touched his chin and analyzed with rapid thoughts.

"Listening to what you said, things that were just clues at first seemed to become very clear immediately. Do you think the other three late Nascent Soul monks were involved in this matter?" The boy was a little stunned by Han Li's analysis, and after a while he smiled bitterly. said.

"Maybe. But this is just a guess. Who knows what the truth is? I can't say how sure I am." Han Li stood up, walked back and forth in the hall for a few steps, and looked around The top of the hall said with a sneer.

"It's not easy to know the truth. Catch those three people and use the soul search method to find out." The boy suggested with a low laugh.

"It's easy to capture the three of them, but there may not be any results. Even if I know the truth of the matter, without real evidence, I can't just attack any sect. Besides, I captured three Ghost Spirit Sect Nascent Souls at once. Monk, I will become the target of public criticism. I am now the number one monk in Tiannan. Although other monks are in awe of me, there are probably more people who are jealous and fearful of me. Maybe others will take advantage of this opportunity. Incited the entire Tiannan cultivator to attack me. No matter how powerful I am, I can't fight against the entire Tiannan cultivator world by myself. This kind of precedent has never happened in Tiannan." Han Li had a stern look on his face. But after pondering for a while, he still shook his head.

"Boy Han, you are too cowardly. If I had the same temper as when I was in the spirit world, hehe... But it's up to you. As long as you can save your own life, I won't be too troublesome." The boy said lazily.

"Don't worry, since I know that someone has ulterior motives, I will be careful. I'd better pretend not to know about this matter! It's okay if I just let him go. If he uses any shameful means against me again, I will always catch him. It's all nonsense. As long as they have real evidence. Humph, they certainly know what a life and death dilemma is." Han Li looked calm, but anyone could hear the coldness in his words.

This time, the boy chuckled and had no more words.

Han Li stayed in the hall for a while and finally walked out of the VIP building. He looked up at another attic not far away and frowned inadvertently.

Forget it about Han Yunzhi, Dong Xuan'er came to see her for what reason? He and Dong Xuan'er didn't get along very well back then. Even though this girl was very charming, she did not leave a good impression on him.

However, Han Li also had one doubt in his mind. He once learned from an abandoned disciple of the Hehuan Sect that after Dong Xuan'er became an elixir, she sent people everywhere to look for him for a period of time. Why is this?

Han Li looked at the attic in the distance. After his eyes flickered for a few times, he slowly walked over.

Entering the attic, there were two beautiful young-looking cultivators inside, standing and sitting in silence in the hall.

Sitting is a woman in a yellow shirt, with a delicate and pretty face, as gentle as a jade in a small family. Standing is a woman in a white shirt, with an extremely charming appearance, but there is a trace of haggardness between her eyebrows, but It does not detract from her delicate appearance, but adds a touch of elegance to this woman.

Han Li's arrival immediately caused the two women to look over at the same time.

"Han Limou is really surprised that two fellow Taoists are here together. However, these two fairies are both old acquaintances of Han. I am really emotional to see each other again today."

Han Li walked up to the two of them in a few steps, glanced at them, and showed a faint smile on his face.

"Brother Han, no...Senior Han, Yunzhi's visit this time didn't cause any trouble to senior, right?" When the woman in yellow shirt saw Han Li, a look of surprise flashed in her dark eyes, and she stood up hurriedly, feeling at a loss. said.
