Han Li's gaze lingered on the grey talisman for a moment. He realized that the talisman on it was very different from the ordinary talisman. It was rather similar to the patterns on the grey cloth and the grey muslin.
He thought for a moment and waved his hand to cast a spell on the talisman.
The talisman glowed with a layer of grey light, and the spell was dispelled.
Han Li raised his eyebrows, and a golden light emitted from his palm. It emitted a faint power of the Law of Time. It touched the grey talisman, but was still dispelled.
His facial expression did not change. After pondering for a moment, he activated the killing intent in his body and tried to touch the grey talisman.
This time, the grey light on the talisman flickered slightly, but it immediately dimmed. It did not dispel the killing intent as it did before.
Han Li was struck by a thought. He immediately activated the killing intent and submerged it into the talisman.
It was not complicated to deconstruct the seal in the talisman. He quickly understood it and cast a spell to break it.
After a quarter of an hour, with a soft poof, the grey talisman flashed and automatically flew up from the black jade box. The black jade box opened automatically and revealed the item inside. It was a red mask.
Han Li picked up the mask and was slightly stunned.
He was very familiar with the mask. It was the red mask of the Samsara Temple's Son of Samsara. It was similar to his dragon head mask. There were two small words written on the top of the mask: Long Si.
"Long Si, could this Rat Immortal be from the Samsara Temple …" Han Li muttered to himself.
The Samsara Temple's mask that Jiao San gave him back then was Long Si.
He did not think much about it. He kept the mask and the jade box. He turned his gaze and looked at the Rat Immortal's corpse again.
At that moment, Magic Light's voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
"Friend Han, it seems like we're in luck. We actually came across a complete Rat Immortal's corpse here. I'm afraid its cultivation level was already at the Taiyi State when it was alive."
"No matter how powerful it was when it was alive, it's just a dried corpse now. Why are you so excited, Friend Magic Light?" Han Li asked indifferently.
"Friend Han, your words are incorrect.
Back when I was with Ma Liang, I obtained a remnant scroll from a ruin. It recorded some information about Rat Immortals. There was a secret technique that could refine a Rat Immortal's corpse into an avatar.
Back then, Ma Liang had always wanted to obtain a Rat Immortal corpse, but he had never been able to do so. I didn't expect to encounter one here. "Magic Light said.
"Is that true?" Han Li's heart stirred.
In the Netherfrost Immortal Abode, he had witnessed the power of Mo Yu, a Primordial Unity Gray Immortal. If he could have a Primordial Unity Gray Immortal's clone, he would have a much greater chance of fighting against that Primordial Unity Gray Immortal.
"How could I dare to deceive you, Friend Han? All these are absolutely true. Rat Immortals are different from you cultivators. After they die, the energy contained in their bodies won't dissipate as quickly as cultivators. Instead, most of it will remain in their bodies, so they can be refined into avatars.
You're really lucky to have obtained a Primordial Unity Gray Immortal's corpse here. If you can refine it into an avatar, you'll have a Primordial Unity Gray Immortal's clone to fight against that Primordial Unity Gray Immortal, "Magic Light said.
"Show me the refinement method," Han Li said in a noncommittal manner.
A shadow flashed under his feet, and Magic Light's figure emerged.
Han Li took out a blank jade slip and handed it to Magic Light. Magic Light took the jade slip and quickly recorded it. After a while, he handed it back to Han Li.
Han Li took the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense. Then, he frowned slightly.
The refining method in the jade slip was different from the usual method of refining avatars. It required a lot of prerequisites.
One of them was that the refiner had to have a strong evil aura. During the refining process, he had to inject his evil aura into several key nodes in the Gray Immortal's corpse so that he could control it in the future.
The second requirement was that the refiner had to use a secret technique of soul splitting. First, he had to split his divine soul, and then use a secret technique to fuse the split divine soul with his own evil aura. Then, he would transform it into an evil soul and fuse it into the Gray Immortal's corpse.
With such double insurance, he could control the Gray Immortal's avatar smoothly.
"The first requirement is not a big deal. However, the second requirement is to split the divine soul and transform it into an evil soul. Will it cause any harm to the main body?" Han Li asked after a moment of silence.
"Naturally, the harm caused to the main body by splitting the divine soul is unavoidable. After transforming into an evil soul, it will often transmit some violent, bloodthirsty, and other negative emotions to the main body.
However, there's nothing we can do about it. The energy in a Gray Immortal's body is completely different from that of a cultivator's, and they both restrain each other. If an ordinary divine soul enters the Gray Immortal's corpse, I'm afraid it will be destroyed in a short period of time. Only after transforming into an evil soul will it be able to survive for a long time, "Magic Light said helplessly.
When Han Li heard this, the fire in his heart slowly subsided.
If he could use a small price to refine this Gray Immortal's corpse into an avatar, he would naturally be happy to see it happen. However, this soul splitting technique would cause great harm to his divine soul, and it might also affect his mind.
He was not willing to pay such a price.
Magic Light glanced at Han Li and suddenly said, "Friend Han, if you feel that it will affect you too much, there's actually another way to solve it."
Han Li raised his eyelids and asked, "What is it?"
"It's very simple. I'll replace your soul and enter the Gray Immortal's corpse," Magic Light said with a smile.
"You?" When Han Li heard this, he revealed an astonished expression.
"I'm an extraterrestrial demon. I have no shape or form, and I'm very similar to a divine soul. Moreover, I'm naturally very resistant to the energy in a Gray Immortal's body, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to enter its body," Magic Light said with a nod.
When Han Li heard that, he did not speak immediately. After a moment of silence, he said, "Friend Magic Light, how long has it been since we signed the contract in the Spiritual Realm?"
"I'm often in deep sleep, so I don't have a deep impression of time. However, it should be more than 10,000 years. Friend Han, why are you asking this?" Magic Light was startled, and he immediately asked.
"We've been together for so many years, so I'm sure you know my character very well. I definitely won't agree to that soul splitting technique.
When you helped me refine this Gray Immortal's clone, your plan was to enter its body from the beginning, right? "Han Li looked at Magic Light and said plainly.
Magic Light's expression stiffened, and then he said with a wry smile, "There's really nothing that I can hide from you. I do want to enter this Gray Immortal's corpse, but I don't have any malicious intentions towards you. I just want to help you.
That Golden Immortal Grand Unity might catch up at any time. If you're killed by it, I won't have a good ending either. "
"Oh, that's all?" Han Li raised his brows.
"Of course, I also want to improve my strength. Friend Han, you've already reached the late-stage Golden Immortal Stage, and Jin Tong and Daoist Xie have also reached the Golden Immortal Stage. Only I'm still in the True Immortal Stage. It doesn't feel good to be left far behind by all of you." Magic Light sighed with a desolate expression.
Han Li's eyes flickered as he looked at Magic Light, and he did not say anything for a while.
After a brief moment, he suddenly raised his hand and emitted a green light that wrapped around the Gray Immortal's corpse.
The green light fluctuated slightly, and crystal green threads emerged from it. The threads wrapped around the corpse and quickly wrapped it into a green cocoon.
The dense killing intent emitted by the Gray Immortal was instantly trapped in the cocoon, unable to leak out at all.
"We'll talk about this later," said Han Li as he put away the green cocoon with a wave of his hand.
Demonshine nodded. His figure flickered and he submerged beneath Han Li once more.
Han Li turned around and walked back to the giant rat's corpse with a frown.
Although the giant rat's corpse was filled with spiritual power, it was one of the sources of the killing intent in this place, so it contained an extremely dense killing intent. It was impossible for Jin Tong and Pixiu to devour it.
However, this matter was not unsolvable.
Han Li pondered for a moment, then he waved his hand and took out a stack of black formation flags and plates, then he set them up near the giant rat's corpse.
After a day and a night, a gourd-shaped magic formation appeared near the giant rat's corpse, and it enveloped the giant rat's corpse.
There were four black rings the size of a round table in this magic formation. The runes near the rings were the densest, and they seemed to be the four important nodes of the magic formation.
Han Li muttered an incantation and cast a magic art.
The gourd-shaped magic formation emitted rays of black spiritual light, especially the four nodes of the rings, which emitted black light and emitted four black light pillars.
The four black light pillars were like living tentacles, twisting and swaying in mid-air.
He let out a low shout, and at the same time, his hands changed the magic art.
Suddenly, the four black light pillars flew out and submerged into the giant rat's corpse.
The killing intent emitted by the giant rat's corpse suddenly stopped, and countless black runes appeared in the next moment.
Then, a muffled "boom" was heard, as if a mountain torrent that had been accumulating for a long time had suddenly erupted!
The killing intent emitted by the giant rat's corpse immediately became stronger, and its speed immediately increased by several times.
Countless substantial killing intent surged out like a tide, and drifted away. The light at the bottom of the abyss immediately dimmed.
Han Li saw this scene, and his face relaxed.
This magic formation was based on a few different magic formations, and he had temporarily improved and designed it. He wasn't sure if it would work, but fortunately, it was effective.
His ten fingers moved quickly like a wheel, and he kept activating the magic formation.
However, at this moment, the giant rat's corpse suddenly shook, and the giant skeleton started to tremble, and a series of "ka ka" sounds were heard. At the same time, two faint green lights appeared in the eye sockets of the skeleton, as if two eyes were looking at Han Li.
Han Li felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but have a layer of cold sweat on his back.
His mind couldn't help but recall the scene of the giant rat's corpse resurrecting in the illusion. He couldn't care less about activating the magic formation, and his body emitted a green light, and he retreated backward.
"Ka la!"
The giant rat's corpse suddenly opened its mouth, and a dense green shadow shot out from it, and shot towards Han Li.
The green shadow was extremely fast, and it was far above Han Li's speed. In the blink of an eye, it pounced in front of him, and drilled into Han Li's body.
