Chapter 289: 179 Chapter: Divine Yuan Realm Combat Ability! Killing Chu Dingqian! The Life-Prolonging Furnace Emerges! Five Great Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors!_7
Han Li was anxious, wondering if the imitation Body-Cultivating Furnace and Soul-Cultivating Furnace could open the secret territory where the Life-Prolonging Furnace was located?
From Chu Dingqian’s memories, he knew that only the merging of the true Body-Cultivating Furnace and Soul-Cultivating Furnace into a lower-grade Divine Weapon would produce the true imitation of the Life-Prolonging Furnace and sense its presence.
“Regardless, I must try,” Han Li didn’t hesitate too much, for indecision could lead to chaos.
At this point, he had to find the Life-Prolonging Furnace; it couldn’t remain hidden any longer.
If the effects of the imitated Body-Cultivating Furnace and Soul-Cultivating Furnace were so powerful already, how strong could the ancient supreme Life-Prolonging Furnace be?
As a supreme-grade Divine Weapon, it was a top-notch Shengyuan Realm Weapon, perhaps even a Grand Saint Soldier, with infinite might. Even if it wasn’t primarily for offense, it could still significantly enhance his combat ability.
The other effects of the Life-Prolonging Furnace could also allow Han Mansion to develop rapidly, greatly accelerating the pace at which he could train his descendants.
Holding the Soul-Cultivating Furnace and the imitated Body-Cultivating Furnace, Han Li’s figure appeared throughout various locations on Chengsheng Mountain. However, he concealed his presence rendering himself undetectable.
“Not here.”
“Neither is this place.”
“Also not here. Where could it be?”
With the Soul-Cultivating Furnace and the imitated Body-Cultivating Furnace in hand, his sensing of the Life-Prolonging Furnace indeed grew stronger, though intermittent. Even with his Divine Spirit powerful enough to rival the ninth level of the True Martial Realm, he couldn’t pinpoint its location.
Despite this, Han Li didn’t give up. This was already much better than before when he could only sense it vaguely and that too, only appearing once after a long time.
Inside Chengsheng Mountain, Han Li constantly appeared in various places, even ascending to the heavens and delving underground, traversing every part of the mountain in search of the secret territory containing the Life-Prolonging Furnace.
Without the true Body-Cultivating Furnace and Soul-Cultivating Furnace, unable to form the key to enter directly, he could only find a special point and then break through with his formidable strength.
With his Divine Yuan Realm combat ability, he believed he could forcibly break into the secret territory.
An hour passed.
Two hours went by.
Four hours later, and Han Li was still searching patiently, without a trace of slackening.
His Spiritual Sense covered the entire Chengsheng Mountain, even extending for thousands of miles around. His divine spirit’s perception was fully active, and he kept stimulating his Divine Sense, all to sense that special node.
After over three hours, a smile appeared on Han Li’s face as he quickly popped up at a certain spot on Chengsheng Mountain.
“I’ve finally found it.”
Standing here, with the Soul-Cultivating Furnace and the imitated Body-Cultivating Furnace in hand, he could sense the Life-Prolonging Furnace distinctly, without any intermittent breaks.
He was sure that the real Life-Prolonging Furnace was indeed within the secret territory linked to this node, a place extremely hidden.
If it weren’t for having the Soul-Cultivating Furnace, the imitation Body-Cultivating Furnace, and the patience to search for nearly four hours, it would have been impossible to locate this place.
After calming his emotions, Han Li prepared to break into the secret territory where the Life-Prolonging Furnace was located. But before doing so, he had another task to complete.
Swish swish swish
One after another, the array materials were flung out by Han Li, pre-embedded at each array node as he began to set up a Third Grade grand array.
Forcibly entering the secret territory might cause a huge disturbance, something Han Li didn’t want others to be aware of. Should someone deduce that the Life-Prolonging Furnace had appeared in Chengsheng Mountain, that would indeed spell big trouble.
After expending considerable effort to set up the grand array and verifying its effectiveness, this Third Grade grand array with a vast range could conceal fate and block noise, preventing the outside world from knowing.
Then, Han Li’s Spiritual Sense surged out, notifying Lu Tianxiang, Bai Keqing, Lin Yiwu, Fang Yousi, and other cherished concubines that he was preoccupied with an important matter, asking them not to disturb him.
Once all this was done, Han Li took a deep breath and solemnly drew the Dragon Abyss Sword, then stimulated his Divine Sense and executed the strongest form of the Meteor Sword Technique.
He thrust his sword out fiercely, striking that special node. A thunderous roar echoed as a rift in the void opened up.
The aura of the Life-Prolonging Furnace leaked from the rift in the void. Han Li’s expression lit up with joy; seeing the crack rapidly closing, he hesitated no longer and darted through.
Swish
Having passed through the crack in the void, Han Li entered a sunny world filled with birds twittering and flowers fragrant, a tranquil and harmonious scene.
This place was overgrown with vegetation, ancient trees reaching the sky, with the spiritual energy being so rich that it was ten thousand times denser than the outer world’s Chengsheng Mountain. It was like comparing heaven to earth; the concentration of spiritual energy here was at least a thousand times greater.
Han Li’s spiritual sense surged forth, instantly enveloping the entire secret territory, which took him by surprise. The secret territory was actually not that vast, far smaller than the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm.
Now, his spiritual sense rivaled the mighty of the True Martial Realm’s Nine Heavens, capable of covering an area of thirteen million miles. Even Yuanzhou, the largest region in Da Qian, was insignificant in comparison.
The secret territory had a size of merely forty to fifty thousand miles, which was very small indeed; it didn’t even compare to his System Space.
At the center of this secret territory’s firmament, there stood a broad-mouthed, narrow-rimmed tripod furnace with two handles, and its lid was suspended a foot above it.
Above this tripod furnace, divine sun and divine moon shone upon each other, illuminating the territory, with countless stars scattered across the firmament, twinkling brightly. Below this tripod furnace, myriad spirits roamed the land, each one exuding extraordinary presence, as if evolving a world of their own.
“In the cauldron of heaven and earth, the sun and moon are refined.”
Upon viewing this scene, Han Li couldn’t help but exclaim, “Indeed, it’s the ancient Supreme Life Nurturing Furnace!”
He looked at the imitations of the Body-Cultivating Furnace and Soul-Cultivating Furnace he held in his hands. In comparison to the ancient Supreme Life Nurturing Furnace, they seemed embarrassingly inferior.
Without hesitation, Han Li headed towards the Life-Prolonging Furnace, intending to claim and refine it.
“Buzz”
Just at that moment, the lid of the Body-Cultivating Furnace slammed shut, and a ripple of divine light swept forward. Han Li threw a punch that swept across the six directions, suppressing the eight desolates, and forcibly ground the ripple of divine light into nothingness.
However, Han Li also halted in his steps. He frowned slightly, looking at the Life-Prolonging Furnace without moving any closer.
It seemed that the Life-Prolonging Furnace had already developed an Artifact Spirit, which was far from vague like those of the Chongming Palace, and not something he could refine easily.
He tried to take another step forward, and another swipe of divine light came his way. Han Li punched again, forcefully extinguishing the divine light.
“Life-Prolonging Furnace, you’ve hidden in this secret territory nursing your wounds for over a hundred thousand years; don’t you wish to go out and see the world?”
“If you were to follow me, ascending to the rank of a divine weapon would be within reach. I could even take you along as I ascend to immortality,” Han Li proclaimed.
His voice, boundless and majestic, echoed throughout the secret territory.
He directly deployed the Hu You Dafa technique, painting a grand picture for the Life-Prolonging Furnace first; whether it was achievable was not within his concerns.
“Young man, leave this place. We can talk when you reach the Divine Yuan Realm.”
Han Li waited, and finally, a voice of ancient and profound depth emanated from the Life-Prolonging Furnace, imbued with the breath of endless ages.
Han Li’s eyebrows lifted slightly. The Life-Prolonging Furnace indeed possessed an Artifact Spirit and was not recognizing him at the moment.
“You’ve hidden in this secret territory for over a hundred thousand years, wishing to repair your body, right? If you follow me, I can help you restore it.”
Han Li did not retreat, and his reverberating voice rose once more.
His eyes blazed with divine light, revealing the injuries to the Life-Prolonging Furnace. The body of the furnace was rather worn, with even a fist-sized hole that appeared to have been punched through it. While it seemed intact, it was merely cloaked in divine light.
The Life-Prolonging Furnace did not respond to him.
After some thought, Han Li continued to advance, taking one step after another, remaining vigilant and keeping his eyes fixed on the Life-Prolonging Furnace.
As Han Li moved again, the lid of the Life-Prolonging Furnace completely fell, merging with the body of the furnace. In a flash, the divine sun and moon, the encircling stars, and the myriad spirits on the ground all turned into runes, returning to the furnace to etch one picture after another upon it.
The secret territory dimmed in an instant, only to brighten again shortly after.
It was the Life-Prolonging Furnace exuding divine light. Centered on the Life-Prolonging Furnace, vast beams of divine light shot out in succession, transforming into the five great mystical beasts: the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, and the Kylin.
The five great mystical beasts stood firm in the five directions of the firmament. Although they were condensed from divine light, they were fused with the might of the Life-Prolonging Furnace and took on solid forms, each exuding a fearsome authority.
“Five Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors!”
Han Li’s expression changed. The Life-Prolonging Furnace was excessively formidable, casually creating five Martial Emperors of the Divine Yuan Realm, each with the strength of the Second Heaven of the Divine Yuan Realm.
This posed an extreme challenge for Han Li.
A self-reviving Grand Saint Soldier was indeed formidable, serving him five Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors as a mere appetizer. How was he to proceed?
