Chapter 721

"Langhuan Black Jade …" Han Li thought of something and looked at the pile of black crystals that he had pushed away.

He had seen this name in an ancient book of the Dust World. It was an extremely precious Dust World ore. Its effect was just as Shi Qing Hou had said, it could hide the aura of the Evil Yin attribute.

It was just that the book did not depict the characteristics of this object, so he did not recognize it earlier.

Han Li thought of this and immediately waved his hand to separate the water around him. At the same time, he released a green light that swept all the black crystals over.

He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of green flame, which wrapped around the black crystals and calcined them.

The Refined Flame Firebird was still asleep, so he could only use his Nascent Flame.

"Wait a moment, your True Flame contains Celestial Spiritual Force. Smelting it like this will cause a lot of damage to the Langhuan Black Jade." Seeing this, Shi Qing Hou quickly raised his hand to stop Han Li and pointed with his finger.

The evil aura in the vicinity immediately fluctuated and rushed toward the green flame, merging with it.

The originally bright green flame quickly turned a dark gray color. Moreover, there were traces of gray light within it.

When Han Li saw this, a trace of astonishment appeared on his face.

The evil aura in the green Nascent Flame did not conflict with each other. Instead, it merged perfectly. He knew that he could not control the evil aura like this.

Han Li glanced at Shi Qinghou and formed an incantation gesture.

The green flame immediately wrapped around the Langhuan Black Jade and fiercely burned it, letting out hissing sounds.

Time passed bit by bit. After about half an hour, the Langhuan Black Jade finally melted and gradually turned into a black liquid.

Han Li made a hand seal and the black liquid slowly elongated into the shape of a pitch-black scabbard. Its size was similar to the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Blade.

At this moment, Shi Qing Hou once again pointed with his finger. The evil aura in the vicinity immediately gathered and turned into gray light threads that entered the scabbard.

Lines and runes immediately appeared on the surface of the black scabbard.

In the blink of an eye, a scabbard had been refined.

Han Li performed an incantation gesture, and the black scabbard flew over. "Cha!" The scabbard wrapped itself around the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Saber.

The surging baleful Yin Qi emitted by the saber was immediately reduced by seventy to eighty percent.

"This is much safer. Thank you, Brother Shi, for your guidance." Han Li looked at the sheathed long blade in his hand and thanked Shi Qing Hou.

"Hehe, it's just a small matter, no need to thank me.

Just now, I had used up a lot of energy to control the grand formation. I will need to rest for a while. If there is anything you need me to do, contact me through your mind, "Shi Qing Hou said coolly. Then, his figure transformed into a white light and disappeared into the Celestial Fox Blood Saber.

Han Li didn't mind Shi Qing Hou's cold attitude. Instead, he felt more at ease.

While thinking, he shook his sleeve, and seven or eight black and white talismans flew out.

He muttered some incantations and flicked his ten fingers. One after another, the incantations flew out of his hands and sank into the talismans.

The talismans immediately transformed into streaks of black and white light that enshrouded the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Saber, forming a black and white cocoon of light.

With the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Saber being sealed, the baleful Yin Qi it was emitting became even weaker.

Han Li nodded upon seeing this before sweeping a sleeve through the air.

He flung a sleeve through the air, and a burst of azure light swept forth to collect the black and white cocoon of light.

After dealing with the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Saber, he flew up and quickly flew out of the pond.

After staying down there for a long time, the sky had already brightened.

Han Li closed his eyes to sense the location of the fortress ship. His body immediately transformed into an azure streak of light, flying toward a certain direction and instantly disappearing into the distance.

About half a day later, Han Li caught up to the fortress ship.

He unleashed a concealment secret technique again and snuck into the fortress ship before returning to his room.

"Friend Han, you're back." Daoist Xie was sitting with his legs crossed, and he immediately stood up at the sight of Han Li.

"Did anything out of the ordinary happen while I was away?" Han Li asked.

"No.

By the way, Shi Chuankong did come here once, but he only released a voice transmission talisman upon seeing the restriction outside the door, "Daoist Xie said as he handed over a black voice transmission talisman.

Han Li accepted the voice transmission talisman and quickly crushed it with his spiritual sense.

Shi Chuankong had only sought him out to ask about the Evil Cleansing Pill.

It was quite clear that he was currently in a perilous situation, and he was struggling to even look after himself in the baleful Yin Qi environment. It looked like he would have to speed up the process.

He flipped his hand over and produced a white voice transmission talisman, then sent it flying through the air as a streak of white light.

The voice transmission talisman flew out of his room as a streak of white light before disappearing into Shi Chuankong's room.

"Fellow Daoist Xie, I'm going into seclusion for a while, so I'll have to trouble you to continue guarding this place," Han Li said to Daoist Xie before waving a hand to open up the entrance to the flower branch space.

"No problem," Daoist Xie replied with a nod.

As soon as his voice trailed off, Han Li's body swayed as he flew into the flower branch space.

He sat down in the pavilion and closed his eyes to meditate, preparing to refine the Evil Cleansing Pill after adjusting his magic power to its optimal state.

Over two hours later, he opened his eyes and carefully reviewed the process of refining the Evil Cleansing Pill in his mind, then waved a sleeve.

A silver pill cauldron appeared and landed in front of him.

Han Li opened his mouth to expel a burst of green Nascent Flame, which encapsulated the pill cauldron.

His Nascent Flame was slightly weaker than Child Essence Flame, but it was more than enough to refine the Evil Cleansing Pill.

The spirit patterns on the silver pill cauldron soon lit up, and the entire cauldron gradually turned a crimson color while giving off a scorching aura.

At this moment, Han Li made a hand seal, releasing a ball of azure light that enveloped a green spirit herb, then sent it into the pill cauldron.

The spirit herb soon melted into a ball of faint green spirit liquid.

He waved his hand again, grabbing another material and tossing it into the pill cauldron.

...

Time flew by, and several years passed in the blink of an eye.

Within the pavilion, Han Li made a hand seal, and green flames surged around the silver pill cauldron before him, enveloping the entire pill cauldron.

The lid of the pill cauldron trembled incessantly, emitting a faint clanging sound.

He stared intently at the pill cauldron, and moments later, he suddenly thrust a hand forward, sending a burst of azure light into the pill cauldron.

The green flames around the pill cauldron disappeared in a flash, and the lid suddenly sprang up before landing on the ground.

A spicy medicinal aroma wafted through the air, and there were five longan-sized Evil Cleansing Pills lying within the pill cauldron.

A hint of a smile flashed through Han Li's eyes upon seeing this, and he waved a hand to release a burst of green light that swept up the five pills, which he stored into a black jade vial, then stowed away the silver pill cauldron with his other hand.

During this period of time, he'd intermittently refined a total of nearly 20 Evil Spirit Pills. In the end, he still had the Profound Zhi Crystal and Bitter Vine Flower in his possession, but the other auxiliary materials were all used up. This situation of putting the cart before the horse caused him to be at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

However, these were enough for him to use for a while.

Han Li fiddled with the black jade vial in his hand, and his eyes flashed as if he were contemplating something.

In the next instant, his body disappeared, then reappeared in the room of the ship.

Daoist Xie, who was sitting with his legs crossed, opened his eyes at the sight of Han Li, and he rose to his feet.

"Fellow Daoist Xie, you've been out here for all these years; has your body been affected by the baleful Qi here?" Han Li asked as he appraised Daoist Xie.

"Unlike you, my body is a puppet body refined from a spirit object, so it won't be affected by external forces. On top of that, my body contains the power of lightning, so the baleful Qi here won't affect me," Daoist Xie replied in a calm voice.

"That's good to hear.

Did anyone come to see me while I was in seclusion? "Han Li's expression eased slightly upon hearing this.

Daoist Xie didn't say anything in response, and he merely waved a hand to produce four or five voice transmission talismans before handing them over.

Han Li accepted the voice transmission talismans and inspected them with his spiritual sense, upon which he shook his head.

Almost all of the voice transmission talismans had been sent by Shi Chuankong. Perhaps it was due to the presence of Magic Light, but Miao Xiu and her brethren didn't come to visit him. On top of that, Magic Light had also left him a voice transmission talisman, asking him what to do next in a rather ambiguous manner.

Han Li made his way out of his room while making a hand seal, upon which the restriction around the room split open to reveal a passageway.

He made his way out of his room before flipping a hand over to produce a voice transmission talisman, then sent a message through the air before waving a hand through the air.

The voice transmission talisman transformed into a streak of black light that disappeared into Magic Light's room in a flash.

He then made his way over to the door of Shi Chuankong's room before making a hand seal, upon which a streak of white light disappeared into the black restriction outside the door.

The restrictive barrier on the door of the room quickly flickered like water ripples. Then, it quickly disappeared and the door creaked open.

"Fellow Daoist Li, you've finally come out of seclusion. Please come in," Shi Chuankong's slightly hoarse voice sounded from within.

Han Li raised an eyebrow before making his way in.

The door closed on its own, and the layer of black light instantly sealed itself again.

The room was a little dark, and Shi Chuankong was currently sitting in the corner of the room. A silver pipa was suspended above his head, which was the spatial treasure he had obtained from the ruins of the Truth Sect.

Next to the silver pipa was a silver flag with patterns of silver stars drawn on it. It was the spatial fairy artifact that Han Li had obtained from the entrance restriction of the Truth Sect.

Bursts of silver light radiated from the two spatial fairy artifacts, forming a spherical silver light shield that enveloped Shi Chuankong's body.

Silver formation flags were suspended in mid-air around Shi Chuankong, and the ground was engraved with countless silver formation patterns, forming a complex large formation.

Outside the spherical silver light shield, an even larger silver restriction light screen was opened.

Shi Chuankong was sitting in the middle of the heavy restrictions, and his complexion looked extremely poor. His hair was messy, and his eyes were flashing with traces of blood-red light. His body was surging with killing intent like a madman on the verge of collapse.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, what happened to you …" Han Li was slightly startled when he saw Shi Chuankong's current appearance.

"It's nothing. It's just that the killing intent in my body has triggered the Killing Decay in my body. I didn't expect the killing intent in the Dust World to be so powerful. I've tried everything to seal it off, but I still couldn't completely isolate the killing intent." Shi Chuankong smiled bitterly and said.
