Xuanyang Star, Jiulong Island.
In a vast manor, Han Zhangxiang, Han Debiao, Han Yuanfeng, Han Benfu, Han Changbing and Liang Youshan were sitting in a green stone pavilion, drinking tea and chatting.
This time I went out to hunt for treasure, but I didn't get much, which was really disappointing.
Han Zhangxiang held a red star-moon plate in his hand with a frown on his face.
"Ancient Demon?"
Han Zhangxiang said with a frown.
After he returned to Xuanyang Star, he immediately contacted Zhao Tianzong and told him the truth.
"Well, I heard that some high-ranking demons have mastered the secret of ascending to the immortal world, and would rather die than tell it. Some high-ranking human beings have sealed them up in order to get the secret out. There are also rumors that some high-ranking human beings are close to the high-ranking demons, and they are unwilling to destroy them, so they seal them up."
Zhao Tianzong's voice sounded.
"There is such a thing. I thought all the high-ranking demons were destroyed."
Han Zhangxiang said in surprise.
"After so many years, the demons must be dead, but there may be residual souls left. We should not underestimate them. It is better to strengthen the seal. It is rumored that the Five Spirits Sect was destroyed because they colluded with the demons, but it is just a rumor. There are also reports that the Five Spirits Sect found the residual soul of a powerful demon from an ancient seal and learned the secret of ascending to the fairyland, which is why they were destroyed. There are also rumors that the Five Spirits Sect obtained the Star Banner, which ranked first on the Star Domain Divine Weapon List, and that is why they were destroyed."
Zhao Tianzong said.
"There are so many rumors, who knows if they are true or not."
Han Zhangxiang disagrees.
"Yes! But this kind of situation is rare. I guess the sealer is afraid of being found, so he sealed the demons in the starry sky."
Zhao Tianzong guessed.
"In the past thousand years, many forces have been wiped out. Does this have anything to do with the demons?"
Han Zhangxiang remembered something and asked curiously.
"That's unclear. A few demons can't turn the tables. They're not Mahayana demons."
Zhao Tianzong said nonchalantly. He paused for a moment and then continued, "By the way, I haven't seen Fellow Daoist Han for a long time. How is he doing recently?"
"Changming is out and hasn't come back yet. Daoist Zhao wants to see him for something?"
Han Zhangxiang asked.
"Well, I would like to ask him to help refine a furnace of top-grade elixirs."
Zhao Tianzong spoke.
"It's a piece of cake, Fellow Daoist Zhao. I can also refine top-grade elixirs."
Han Benfu said.
"Alright, I'll go to Xuanyang Star right away. Thank you for your help."
Zhao Tianzong said.
"You are too polite, Brother Zhao. It is just a small favor. My father often mentioned you to me."
Han Benfu said politely.
After chatting for a while, Han Zhangxiang put away the Star and Moon Plate.
"Even the Zhao family doesn't know the situation of that seal. It seems to be a special case."
Han Zhangxiang said.
"Could it be left behind by the Five Spirit Sect?"
Han Debiao guessed.
"It's hard to say, but after so many years, the Five Spirits Star may have been discovered by someone. It doesn't matter if we can't find it. We won't lose anything. It would be even better if we find it."
Han Zhangxiang said nonchalantly.
Han Debiao took out a star-moon disk that was glowing with black light, and entered a spell. A familiar male voice sounded, "Fifth uncle, how have you been lately?"
"Changming, are you out of seclusion? When will you be back?"
Han Debiao asked excitedly.
"I won't be going back for now. I have something to do here. By the way, Uncle Wu, how is the clan doing? Nothing wrong, right?"
Han Changming asked.
Han Debiao did not hide anything and told the truth.
"Demon corpse? Forbidden place! Seal? This is strange."
There was a hint of confusion in Han Changming's voice.
"Yeah! We are also very curious, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, we have strengthened the prohibition and sealed the entrance."
Han Zhangxiang said.
After chatting for a while, Han Zhangxiang put away the Star and Moon Plate.
"You all should go back and rest! This matter is confidential and must not be spread outside."
Han Zhangxiang said.
Han Debiao and others agreed and left one after another.
Han Zhangxiang walked into a secret room. There was a red tripod furnace in the room. There were a lot of red array patterns engraved on the stone walls, and heat waves were rolling.
He shook his sleeves, and the refining materials flew out and landed on the ground. He planned to refine several sets of Tongtian Lingbao.
Han Zhangxiang threw the materials into the refining furnace, opened his mouth and spurted out a red flame, which landed on the bottom of the refining furnace.
Before long, the temperature in the room began to rise.
A thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead, and his spiritual awareness was fully open, staring closely at the situation inside the refining furnace.
······
Tianji star field, Tianji star.
Tianjifang City, a vast manor.
Han Changming and Ye Xin were sitting in a green stone pavilion, talking about something.
Ye Xin was already in the late stage of fusion. Han Changming was in seclusion practicing the Golden Eyed True Child, so she also went into seclusion to practice.
More than a hundred years ago, Ye Xin entered the middle stage of fusion. She took the Nine-Aperture Blood Ginseng Pill and successfully entered the late stage of fusion.
Han Changming has already advanced to the great perfection of the fusion stage and is only one step away from the Mahayana stage.
He refined some Golden Eye Jade Liquid to cultivate the Golden Eye True Child, successfully cultivated the Golden Eye True Child to perfection, and then practiced in seclusion, successfully advancing to the great perfection of the fusion.
The panacea for reaching the Mahayana stage is very rare. Some powerful forces with a long history have panacea for reaching the Mahayana stage, but they will not be easily leaked to the outside world.
The vast majority of combined body cultivators who want to advance to the Mahayana stage can only go to dangerous places, secret realms, or the caves of Mahayana cultivators to search, but only a few succeed.
"I didn't expect so many things to happen while we were away."
Ye Xin said.
"It shouldn't be a big problem. The clan leader, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu are all in the late stage of fusion, and Benfu, Changbing, Changqing and others are helping us."
Han Changming said.
"Husband, sister, what are you talking about!"
A pleasant female voice sounded.
As soon as the voice came out, Ye Xue walked in. She had also cultivated to the late stage of fusion.
After Ye Xue cultivated to the middle stage of fusion, he took the Nine-Aperture Blood Ginseng Pill and successfully advanced to the late stage of fusion.
Ye Xin did not hide anything and told the truth.
"Demon corpse? It's quite a coincidence that a demon corpse also appeared in the Tianji Star Region and was discovered by the monks of the Tianji Palace."
Ye Xue said.
"A demon corpse was also found in the Tianji Star Region? What is going on?"
Han Changming asked curiously.
Ye Xue told the truth. The Tianji Palace was the largest force in the Tianji Star Domain, with Mahayana cultivators in charge and many experts. Not long ago, when the law enforcement elders of the Tianji Palace were chasing evil cultivators, they accidentally discovered an ancient cultivator's cave. After finally breaking into the cave, a demon corpse ran out and killed many cultivators. Later, the Tianji Palace sent out several combined cultivators to kill the demon corpse.
“I didn’t expect that after all these years, we could still find the demon corpse.”
Han Changming said in surprise.
"Yes! I heard that there are some secret realms or forbidden areas filled with dense demonic energy. High-level cultivators of the human race set up formations to slowly purify the demonic energy."
Ye Xue said.
Han Changming nodded and was about to say something when he felt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth becoming chaotic. Not long after, a large number of colorful light spots emerged out of thin air and spread throughout the void, like fireworks, extremely gorgeous.
These five-colored light spots flew towards a certain direction and condensed into five-colored clouds halfway at a very fast speed.
"Is someone trying to reach the fusion stage?"
Han Changming recognized the origin of the strange phenomenon and thought to himself, "It can't be a stone man!"
There has been no news about the stone man for many years. The problem is that it has not transformed into a human form. Unlike the spiritual insects, beasts and birds, Han Changming has no way to help it overcome the tribulation, and it can only rely on itself.
A large number of colorful clouds floated above a high peak. The top of the mountain was covered by a sea of yellow fog, and the situation inside could not be seen clearly.
A large number of five-colored clouds collided with each other, forming a huge vortex of spiritual energy, colorful.
The spiritual energy vortex slowly turned, and bean-sized five-colored raindrops poured down and sank into the yellow sea of fog.
A large number of high-level cultivators flew here and watched from a distance. Most of them were Void-Refining cultivators. It was a rare opportunity to see other cultivators breaking through to the Fusion Stage. Maybe there were things they could learn from them.
Han Changming, Ye Xue and Ye Xin rushed over and stopped other cultivators from getting closer to watch.
In less than half a minute, the vortex of spiritual energy dissipated, as if it had never appeared.
Han Changming's eyes lit up with a dazzling golden light, and he could clearly see the situation beneath the yellow sea of fog.
The stone man has awakened and is standing in the manor.
There was a rumbling sound of thunder, and a huge thundercloud appeared in the sky. Lightning and thunder flashed, and the thundercloud rolled and surged. Countless silver lightning snakes kept moving, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
Without the assistance of formations, elixirs, treasures, spiritual wine and other external objects, it would be more difficult for the stone man to survive the seventy-nine thunder tribulations.
Suddenly, there was a loud thunder, and a thick silver lightning streaked across the sky and headed straight towards the stone man.
The stone man's surface emitted a bright yellow light, the ground turned into sand, and countless yellow gravel flew towards him and merged with him.
Han Changming could clearly see that the stone man's body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than two breaths, the stone man grew to over a hundred feet tall, wearing a yellow armor that protected his entire body.
Silver lightning struck the stone man's body, a muffled sound was heard, and the dazzling lightning submerged the stone man's figure.
Before the lightning faded away, the second thunderbolt struck.
The roar continued, and thick silver lightning streaked across the sky and struck below.
Han Changming stared at the stone man, fearing that it would not be able to survive the thunder tribulation.
"May I ask if you are Master Wan Hulu?"
A polite female voice sounded in Han Changming's ears.
Han Changming turned his head and saw a sweet-looking young woman in a red dress flying towards him.
Judging from her aura, she has the cultivation level of the middle stage of Refining Void.
"Your Excellency?"
Han Changming was slightly stunned. He didn't know the young woman in the red dress.
"My name is Mu Hongyu. I went to the Chiyang Star Region in my early years. I met Senior Han at a party. It has been many years since we last met. Senior has already entered the Fusion Stage."
The young woman in the red dress introduced herself.
"Party? What party?"
Han Changming asked.
He had attended many parties, and for a moment, he couldn't remember who the other person was.
Mu Hongyu told the truth, and Han Changming thought about it carefully and had some impression.
"It's you, what's wrong?"
Han Changming asked casually.
"My master is also in Tianji Market. I learned that Senior Han is also in the market. I want to make friends with Senior Han. I wonder if Senior Han is available?"
Mu Hongyu said.
"Master? How did your master know I was here?"
Han Changming asked in confusion.
"I have met Senior Han's wife several times in the market. I guess you are also in the market. If it is inconvenient, forget it."
Mu Hongyu said politely.
Ye Xue did not show his true face at first, but as time went on, since they did not have any major enemies in the Tianji Star Region, he relaxed his guard and showed his true face, which led to Mu Hongyu recognizing him.
Han Changming thought for a moment and said, "It's no problem to meet your master. Lead the way!"
"Yes, Senior Han, please follow me."
Mu Hongyu was overjoyed and led the way personally.
Ye Xue and Ye Xin stayed where they were to protect the stone man and prevent outsiders from interfering with its breakthrough to the fusion stage.
It would be the same if Han Changming stayed here. He could not help the stone man. If the stone man wanted to survive the thunder tribulation, he could only rely on himself.
Not long after, Han Changming followed Mu Hongyu to a vast manor. After passing through a red peach blossom forest, a simple green bamboo pavilion appeared in front of Han Changming.
A thin old man in a green robe was sitting in the bamboo pavilion. In front of him was a green tea table with a set of exquisite tea sets on it.
"I am Chen Zun, honored to meet Fellow Daoist Han. I have long heard of your great name, and now I am finally able to see you in person."
When the old man in green robe saw Han Changming, he quickly stood up and spoke politely.
"It's not a big name, but you're too polite, Mr. Chen."
Han Changming said.
"Fellow Daoist Han, please take a seat and have a taste of the Purple Mulberry Jade Tea. This is the unique spiritual tea of the Tianyue Merchant Alliance."
Chen Zun picked up the teapot and poured Han Changming a cup of steaming spiritual tea. The tea was purple and gave off a peculiar fragrance.
"Tianyue Merchant Alliance? Chen Daoyou is so capable that he was able to get the unique spiritual tea of Tianyue Merchant Alliance."
Han Changming was surprised. He didn't hesitate and picked up the teacup and took a sip.
With Amethyst Flying Scorpio around, he would remind Han Changming if the tea was poisonous.
The Tianyue Business Alliance is a super business alliance. Its overall strength is much stronger than that of the Seven Immortals Business Alliance. It has Mahayana monks in charge and is full of experts.
The Tianyue Business Alliance is an inter-star domain business alliance with influence spread across multiple star domains. However, the Tianyue Business Alliance mostly operates in star domains rich in immortal cultivation resources and will never go to places like the Chiyang Star Domain where immortal cultivation resources are scarce.
"Good tea! Not bad."
Han Changming praised him, he didn't know much about tea, he was just being polite.
After a few cups of tea, Chen Zun got down to business: "I heard from Hongyu that Fellow Daoist Han is an alchemist who can refine top-grade elixirs?"
"That's true, but it depends on what kind of elixir it is. Why? Fellow Daoist Chen wants me to help him make the elixir?"
Han Changming said with a smile.
Chen Zun nodded seriously and said, "That's right. I won't let Fellow Daoist Han work in vain. This is the deposit. After the matter is completed, there will be a generous reward."
He took out an exquisite red jade box, handed it to Han Changming, and motioned Han Changming to open it.
Han Changming opened the red jade box, and inside was a seven-colored Ganoderma lucidum. There were some flame-like patterns on the surface of the Ganoderma lucidum, and it emitted a strange sound.
"Fifty thousand years old Seven Flame Ganoderma! I wonder what kind of elixir Fellow Daoist Chen wants to refine?"
Han Changming asked.
"Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill! I only have one ingredient. Do you think you can do it, Brother Han?"
Chen Zun's face was full of anticipation.
There are many high-level weapon refiners in the Tianji Star Domain, but high-level alchemists are relatively rare.
"Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill? It's actually this kind of miraculous pill?"
Han Changming was a little surprised.
The Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill is one of the ten great elixirs. Ordinary immortal cultivators who want to transform into an acquired spiritual body can take the Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill and, in addition, take special spiritual objects, and the chance of transforming into an acquired spiritual body will be higher.
