Chapter 833

Han Li pondered for a while. Not long after, he shook his head and let out a long sigh.

The current situation was obviously beyond his control. He could only take it one step at a time.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He sat down cross-legged and took out a black bone ring. It was the storage device of Dao Master Reflecting Bone.

He and Shi Chuankong had been in a hurry these days and didn't have time to check the ring. A storage device of a Zenith Heaven cultivator shouldn't disappoint him.

While thinking, Han Li released a strand of his divine sense into the black bone ring.

He closed his eyes to check the situation in the bone ring. After half an hour, he opened his eyes and waved his sleeve.

A vast expanse of azure light swept forth, and eight white stone pillars that were around half a foot tall appeared out of thin air, along with a white bone medallion and a black relief sculpture.

These eight white stone pillars emitted waves of white crystal light. They were the eight temples of bones.

Every temple of bones emitted a shocking fluctuation of the Law of Dry Bones. It was even more shocking when the eight of them were connected. Although there was no one activating them at the moment, the bones in his body were faintly affected by the power of the Law and trembled.

These eight temples of bones should be Dao Master Reflecting Bone's Natal Demonic Weapon. This Zenith Heaven cultivator had nurtured them for countless days. That was why they contained such a terrifying Law of Dry Bones.

Although Han Li couldn't activate the eight temples of bones, he could make good use of the surging Law of Dry Bones.

He smiled and summoned the Mysterious Heaven Gourd. An emerald green light shot out from it and wrapped around the eight temples of bones.

With a "swoosh", the eight temples of bones were absorbed into the Mysterious Heaven Gourd. After a few cracking sounds, they were crushed.

Eight white light balls appeared in the Mysterious Heaven Gourd. Each light ball emitted a shocking fluctuation of the Law of Dry Bones.

Han Li's eyes lit up. The power of the Law of Dry Bones was extremely powerful. He could use it as his trump card in the future.

Just as his divine sense was about to withdraw from the Mysterious Heaven Gourd, the Law of Dry Bones suddenly changed and slowly merged with each other.

"Yi!" Han Li let out a yelp and wore a trace of astonishment.

The eight Skeleton Laws quickly fused together, turning into a bone-white ball of light that was two to three times the size of the original. In the middle of the ball of light, a small greyish-white skeleton shadow appeared.

The Law fluctuations emitted by the white ball of light were not as intense as before. However, when Han Li looked at the skeleton phantom, he felt a chill run down his spine.

He was stunned for a moment, but was soon overjoyed.

If the eight balls of bone Laws from before could be considered as a trump card of his, then this bone image could absolutely be considered as a trump card of his, and it might be able to pose a threat to a Golden Immortal Realm cultivator if released by surprise through the bottle gourd.

Han Li carefully sensed the terrifying aura of the skeletal figure for a while more before reluctantly putting the Mysterious Heaven Gourd away.

He then picked up a white bone plate that was densely engraved with countless small words. It was the cultivation method that Dao Being Bone Reflection cultivated, the Dry Bone Sutra, and some of his cultivation experiences.

The Dry Bone Sutra was something that a Golden Immortal Realm fiendish cultivator cultivated diligently and carried around with him, so it was naturally extraordinary. If it was placed outside, countless people would come to snatch it. However, it was not of much use to Han Li.

Currently, he mainly cultivated the Law of Time, and he had collected many books about this cultivation method. He had yet to fully comprehend it, so it was impossible for him to give up halfway and cultivate a brand new cultivation method. He had experienced the principle of biting off more than he could chew a long time ago.

He roughly browsed through the contents of the cultivation method at the beginning, but he did not look at it in detail. Instead, he looked at some of the cultivation experiences at the end very carefully.

Less than 15 minutes later, he flipped his hand and put away the bone plate, then picked up the last black relief sculpture.

This relief sculpture was only the size of a palm, and it was the sculpture of a demon with three heads and six arms. It was sitting on the ground in a strange posture.

Han Li flipped the black relief sculpture up and down. After a while, there was a flash between his eyebrows, and a crystal light shot out and entered the relief sculpture.

The black relief sculpture seemed to come to life, and it moved its limbs and made various postures.

Every time it made a posture, many small words would appear behind the relief sculpture, as if explaining something.

However, Han Li did not recognize any of these small words. They seemed to be some kind of ancient language.

Han Li also did not recognize what kind of treasure this black relief sculpture was. He only saw that it was strange, and when he stimulated it with his mental strength, it danced on its own, so he took it out.

This relief sculpture had a total of 12 postures, and the words behind it were the same, corresponding to a total of 12 passages.

He pondered for a moment, then flipped his hand and took out a blank jade slip. He copied down the 12 passages that appeared behind the relief sculpture, planning to find someone to ask if there was a suitable opportunity in the future.

Naturally, the things in the black bone ring were not limited to these three items. There were many materials, Demonic Origin Stones, elixirs, and so on.

However, there were a lot of them, and they were not very valuable, so he was too lazy to go through them one by one.

Furthermore, Enlightened Master Reflecting Bone had a lot of Demonic Origin Stones, more than two million. This should be enough for him to use during his stay in the Demon Realm, and he might even be able to collect a lot of rare treasures.

"Fellow Daoist Xie, please help me sort through this storage ring. If there's anything that you can use, feel free to take it." Han Li called Daoist Xie over and handed the black bone ring to him.

Daoist Xie nodded and accepted the black bone ring, then sat down with his legs crossed.

After that, Han Li did not linger in the branch space. He quickly returned to his room, and the sky outside was already dark.

Suddenly, Han Li raised an eyebrow, and he looked outside the room with a glint in his eyes.

Even though it was only for a split second, he clearly sensed an extremely weak aura outside, as if it was spying on him.

He fell silent for a moment, but he did not investigate further.

He was an outsider in Yang Ye City, so it was normal for Shi Pokong to send someone to keep an eye on him. As long as the other party did not press too hard, he would naturally pretend that he did not see anything.

With that in mind, Han Li walked into his room and sat down on his bed.

The night passed by quickly, and early the next morning, a series of knocks sounded from outside the courtyard.

Han Li's expression changed, and he stood up. He walked into the courtyard and opened the door, only to find that it was Shi Chuankong.

"Fellow Daoist Li, did you rest well last night?" Shi Chuankong greeted with a smile.

"It was the most peaceful sleep I've had in a long time.

Please come in. "Han Li smiled and opened up a path for Shi Chuankong.

"I won't be going in. I've only just returned to Yang Ye City, and there are many things that I need to take care of. I came here this time because I have something to discuss with you, Fellow Daoist Li." Shi Chuankong's expression was a little unnatural.

"Oh, what is it? Fellow Daoist Shi, feel free to speak your mind." Han Li had a bad feeling in his heart.

Shi Chuankong hesitated and said, "It's about asking the high priest to treat fellow Daoist Weeping Soul. I asked third brother yesterday, but the situation has changed. The high priest has now pledged his allegiance to my eldest brother. I'm afraid it will be difficult to invite the high priest over.

However, Fellow Daoist Li, third brother is already thinking of a way. No matter what, we will invite the high priest over. Please wait patiently for a while. "

Han Li frowned and said, "This... I'm not trying to rush you. It's just that I don't have much mid-grade Violet Sun Warmth Jade left. I can only last another twenty years at most. Please hurry."

"Regarding the Violet Sun Warm Jade, Fellow Daoist Li need not worry. Third brother has already sent people to purchase it. I believe it will be delivered soon." Shi Chuankong said.

"If there are enough mid-grade Violet Sun Warm Jade, it can last for a few more days." Han Li's expression relaxed.

"Fellow Daoist Li, don't worry. Since I've promised you this, I will definitely do it. I won't let you wait for too long." Shi Chuankong said firmly.

"Many thanks for the trouble, Fellow Daoist Shi." Han Li nodded.

"Also, I will be in seclusion for a period of time to try to break through to the Taiyi State. I may not be able to come over to greet you.

If there's anything, you can just ask the servants in the mansion. "Shi Chuankong said.

"Then I'll have to congratulate you in advance. With Fellow Daoist Shi's qualifications, you will definitely advance to the Taiyi State." Han Li smiled.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li." Shi Chuankong said with a smile.

The two talked for a while at the door before Shi Chuankong left.

Han Li waited for Shi Chuankong's figure to leave. He stood there for a moment, then turned and walked back to the courtyard.

Time flew. In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Shi Chuankong had already started his seclusion.

For the past few days, Han Li did not step out of the house and stayed in his room.

Before Shi Chuankong went into seclusion, Han Li met him once to borrow some books from him. He wanted to see if he could find any information about the current situation of the Weeping Soul Beast. Secondly, he wanted to look up some information about the cultivation of the Spirit Realm.

Han Li had won his battle against Daoist Master Reflecting Bone in a muddled fashion, and he was still feeling a little uneasy. Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's spirit domain gave him a very different feeling than the ones he had seen in the past, and he had to figure out what was going on.

He thought that Shi Chuankong would at least hesitate when it came to the ancient books of his clan. He did not expect that on the afternoon of the same day, he came back with a stack of beautifully framed ancient books and sent them to Han Li.

Before he left, he specifically told Shi Chuankong that these books were his Third Brother's private collection and should not be damaged. Otherwise, he would definitely get a lot of complaints from his Third Brother. In addition, there was a restriction on the books. They could only be read and not copied.

After Han Li nodded in agreement, Shi Chuankong bid farewell and left.

In the days after Shi Chuankong left, Han Li was not in a hurry to read the ancient books. Shi Chuankong did not mention that he had time to borrow them. After familiarizing himself with the environment of the courtyard for a few days, he finally began to seriously read through the ancient books.

The covers of the thick ancient books were made of thick metal. The surface was engraved with exquisite patterns of flowers and strange beasts, and the pages inside were made of some kind of animal skin. It was soft and extremely tough.

Most of the ancient tomes contained information regarding soul injuries or Nascent Soul seals, and there were even several devilish secret techniques interspersed among them. These should've been secrets that no one else was aware of, but all of them were laid bare before Han Li's eyes without any reservation.

However, Han Li was not a member of the Devil Race, and he did not cultivate the Devil Race's cultivation methods. He only glanced at them and had no intention of cultivating them.
