A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 225 Invitation

Inside the cave on Fengyu Island.

The two people, who were enjoying tea for health, were stunned when they received the communication talisman. Then, one of them became furious, while the other smiled broadly.

Barbarian Beard: "It's that scoundrel Xiao Cha..."

Qingyi: "It is Fellow Daoist Xiao who has arrived ahead of schedule."

"Hmph, he dares to show his face in front of me?"

"Barbarian Beard said angrily."

"Brother Man, why is that?"

The handsome old man straightened his hair, looking puzzled.

Upon seeing this, the bearded man immediately rolled his eyes at his ally:
"Stop pretending. Now you know that the Heaven-Mending Pill can't extend lifespan, right? That Xiao Cha took the Heaven-Mending Pill back then, so he must know its wonders. But he didn't tell me, making me waste all my time in the Void Heaven Palace. He's come at the perfect time; I, Man, demand an explanation..."

He felt very depressed at the thought of being used as a pawn by others in the Void Heaven Palace.

He immediately got up and left the cave.

Qing Yi remained silent behind him.

He wasn't sure if what the bearded man said was true or false.

Not knowing the specific effects of the Heaven-Mending Pill, they chose to remain silent.

In fact, he was quite curious about the true lifespan of the bearded man.

Two figures, one muscular and one thin, flew out from the island and arrived at a stone pavilion on the edge of Fengyu Island.

At first, the person looked furious and annoyed. But after sensing the cultivation levels of the four people in the pavilion, he couldn't help but feel a chill. His big strides slowed down, and his proud posture lowered slightly.

Nothing else:

"One person in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, two in the early-Nascent Soul stage, and one in the late-Core Formation stage..."

"This Xiao Cha is quite capable!"

In just a moment, the bearded man was torn between his inner thoughts and his own.

He immediately composed himself, strode into the stone pavilion, and plopped down in front of Han Li.

At this moment, the angry expression had long since disappeared, replaced by an expression of feeling that he had been greatly wronged and aggrieved.

"Brother Xiao, you've kept this from me for so long!"

He immediately put on a Sichuan opera face-changing performance for everyone right from the start.

This scene completely baffled Qing Yi, who was following behind.
You brute, is this how you demand an explanation?
Turning his head to glance at the four people's cultivation levels, he was also taken aback. He immediately understood why his usually reckless ally had changed his attitude so drastically.

Even he wouldn't want to offend a mid-stage Nascent Soul expert.

Not to mention that he also had two concubines at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm by his side.

"Good heavens, Xiao Cha is really skilled."

Qing Yi clicked his tongue in amazement.

The previous cultivation of an extremely yin entity does not count.

After suffering a setback, two more female cultivators were trained as concubines here.

Furthermore, the third concubine was also a person with a solid foundation, whose magical power and spiritual sense far surpassed those of others of the same level. She had obviously also cultivated techniques to purify magical power, increase the upper limit of magical power, and amplify spiritual sense.

With this foundation, the chances of successfully shattering the core and forming the nascent soul in one fell swoop are quite high...

"I would call this Xiao Cha the number one mentor in the Chaotic Star Sea!"

They're very good at teaching apprentices and cultivating talent.

While Qingyi was still lost in thought, Han Li and Man Huzi had already started chatting.

After pouring his old friend a cup of spiritual tea, Han Li got straight to the point:
"Brother Man, are you referring to the fact that the Heaven-Mending Pill cannot prolong life?"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Upon hearing this, the bearded man's brows furrowed.
"Since Brother Xiao knew, why didn't you tell me sooner?"

The thought of this pained him deeply.

If the Heaven-Mending Pill doesn't have the effect of prolonging life, what's the point of him fighting to the death in the Void Heaven Palace Secret Realm and even offending Wan Tianming?

"Although the Heaven-Mending Pill does not increase lifespan, it can refine a cultivator's spiritual roots, making their natural talent for cultivation better. It greatly helps cultivators in breaking through the Core Formation and Nascent Soul stage, and also provides considerable assistance for subsequent cultivation."

Han Li first explained the wondrous uses of the Heaven-Mending Pill, and then added:
"As for why I didn't tell you these things back then? Brother Man, even if I told you the whole truth, would you believe me?"

"We cultivators only believe what we think is accurate."

“If you don’t try it yourself, all I’m saying is just to annoy you, brother.”

"Why should I bother myself?"

"If we upset you, Brother Man, how can we possibly win against Wan Tianming and his group and have the last laugh?"

Han Li put down his teacup, his expression calm and composed.

These words left the barbarian speechless.

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

He knew very well that he would never have listened to the explanation from the person in front of him back then, and only after experiencing it could he understand the value of those words.

Furthermore, by putting myself in their shoes, I gained a better understanding of the correctness of their actions.

"Ugh…"

A long sigh revealed the heavy sense of resentment.

"I, Manhuzi, am considered one of the more prominent figures in this Chaotic Star Sea. Apart from those four, who else doesn't give me some face? But my time is about to come to an end."

Upon hearing this, Qingyi also felt a pang of sympathy and sorrow.

After all, his lifespan wasn't long.

What can one accomplish in over two hundred years?
Han Li, ignoring the complex emotions of the barbarian, congratulated Qing Yi:

"Fellow Daoist Qing, you have made another progress. Congratulations!"

"Luckily, luckily, it's all thanks to those spiritual herbs that Brother Xiao shared back then..."

Qing Yi stroked his beard and smiled, his heart filled with emotion.

Then he thought of Wan Tianming coming to settle scores with him afterward, and he felt a wave of fear. If he had still been stuck at the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage at that time, he would have suffered a great loss and become a stray dog.

got used to.

What I fear most is that Wan Tianming will relentlessly pursue him.

Fortunately.

He advanced.

Although he still couldn't beat Wan Tianming, the gap wasn't as big anymore.

And the person in front of him was able to defy fate and change his destiny, thanks in no small part to the "helping hand" of him.

"Let's go to the cave dwelling for a talk. What's the point of staying out here?"

Barbarian Beard waved his hand, interrupting their pleasantries, and pointed to the spiritual vein cave in the center of Fengyu Island.

Qing Yi extended an invitation.

This time, Han Li agreed with a smile without the slightest hesitation.

One reason is that he has no conflict of interest with these two; on the contrary, the three of them have a "win-win" relationship.

Furthermore, times have changed, and his strength has given him ample confidence.

…We arrived at the main hall of the cave.

The three of them talked for a long time.

However, they didn't talk about the three women.

This is private information, involving many secrets; asking too much would only damage relationships. However, Manhuzi and Qingyi were completely convinced of Han Li's ability to cultivate talent.

Even if such a person is not good at fighting, he is definitely a special person that all major forces are vying to win over.

With four Nascent Soul cultivators in one school, and another one nearing the false infant stage, such teaching achievements would put countless old monsters from both the righteous and demonic paths to shame.

Finally, Han Li brought up the topic, preparing to reveal the true purpose of his visit:
"The situation in this Chaotic Star Sea is unpredictable and ever-changing. It's said that the Six Paths Supreme Saint once tried to harm his younger sister, Wen Qing, intending to refine her, who had just entered the mid-Nascent Soul stage, into one of the six avatars of the Six Extremes True Demon Art. Unfortunately, Ling Xiaofeng suddenly appeared and disrupted the plans, defeating the Six Paths Supreme Saint and saving Wen Qing. From then on, the siblings became estranged, ironically enhancing the reputation of the two saints. That Six Paths Supreme Saint truly lost both his sister and his reputation..."

"If it weren't for this, Holy Demon Island would now have two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators! The demonic path would have been rampant for a thousand years!"

Han Li's words caused Man Hu Zi and Qing Yi to exchange bewildered glances, and then their gossipy nature was piqued.

"Is there still this?"

Neither of them had ever heard of these inside stories.

"It seems that neither of you knows much about the Six Extremes True Demon Art."

"The top three demonic cultivation techniques in the Star Sea are renowned and widely known. How could we not know them? However, what about the Six Extremes True Demonic Technique that Brother Xiao knows about?"

Qingyi was very interested in this.

Seeing this, Han Li didn't hold back and explained more:

"The Six Extremes True Demon Art is a top-tier demonic art passed down by the ancient Demon Lord. If one has the assistance of True Demon Qi in cultivation or even initiation, the results can be twice as effective. However, in this world where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is increasingly depleted, it is extremely difficult to cultivate the demonic art to its full potential. The demonic art possesses a great secret technique that can refine the physical body of a powerful individual into an avatar, serving as a medium for summoning the avatar of the Demon Lord across realms. When cultivated to its full potential, it can even serve as a vessel for projecting the power of a powerful being from the Demon Realm."

Doppelgänger?

medium?

Projection force?

Carrier?

Upon hearing this, both Manhuzi and Qingyi's expressions gradually became serious.

These are things they don't know.

They only knew that the Six Paths Supreme Saint could overwhelm them with just a portion of the Six Extremes True Demon Art.

"The true power of the Six Extremes True Demon Art lies in finding six physical bodies with the same capacity as oneself and refining them into clones. In this way, during battle, one can obtain the power projection of a powerful being from the demon realm through cross-realm summoning, allowing the clones to unleash combat power equivalent to one's own cultivation level. Once the Six Paths Supreme Saint gathers six such clones, it is equivalent to having six extra flesh and blood puppets at the late Nascent Soul stage."

"At that time, not only will they be invincible among their peers, but they will also be able to fight against those in the Nascent Soul stage."

As Han Li spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally looked Man Hu Zi up and down, making Man Hu Zi feel uneasy.

Qingyi realized something and glanced at Man Huzi a few more times.

What do you two mean?

“Brother Man, if Brother Xiao is right, your physical body is probably the most suitable for that guy surnamed Wen to refine into a clone vessel.”

Qing Yi said in a deep voice.

After a moment's thought, the bearded man felt a strong sense of unease.

Without him.

He is the strongest body cultivator in the Star Sea. His magical power and true essence are similar to those of demon cultivators with special bloodlines, far surpassing human cultivators of the same level.

Therefore, don't underestimate him just because he is only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

However, his magical power and true essence are at least twice that of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the same level, and not much different from the four late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Using his physical body as a vessel, he could absolutely withstand cross-dimensional power comparable to that of an Empress.

"That Wen fellow wouldn't dare! I, Man, am not someone to be trifled with!"

The more Man Hu Zi thought about it, the more terrified he became.

Indeed, Wen Liudao had collected corpses on the battlefield more than once.

Previously, everyone thought that this Six Paths Supreme Saint coveted the storage bags of other Nascent Soul cultivators. Now it seems that coveting the storage bags was a pretense; what he really coveted was their bodies.

"Brother Xiao, you're not just saying all this to scare us, are you?"

Qingyi suddenly looked at Han Li and asked.

"The Star Palace is arrogant and has never tolerated us. The various schemes they've plotted against us within the Void Heaven Palace have already demonstrated the Star Palace's attitude towards rogue cultivators and both righteous and demonic cultivators. Although the righteous path is now our ally, we've offended the Ten Thousand Sect Masters of the Myriad Laws Sect, so we can't rely on them. The Six Paths Supreme Saints of the demonic path, for their own benefit, would only wish for our early demise, leaving us with physical bodies to be used by them. Therefore, my suggestion is that the three of us form a force together."

"Three mid-Nascent Soul cultivators plus my three sword servants, that's not bad, is it?"

"Even if the Six Paths Supreme Saint comes to our door in person, we're not without the power to fight back, are we?"

As he said this, he glanced at the bearded man again.

Seeing this, Man Dahan's mood grew increasingly heavy.

The more you know, the more troubles you have.

"Let me think..."

"Hmm, I need to think about it too..."

Qingyi and Manhuzi exchanged a glance, caught in a dilemma.

Forming alliances has both advantages and disadvantages.

Too many people are not necessarily a good thing.

Sometimes, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

The Inner Star Sea already has two behemoths: the Star Palace and the Reverse Star Alliance.

If the three of them band together to build up their power, they will inevitably become a thorn in the side of some people.

After all, none of the three of them would ever go to war.

It belongs to the semi-neutral camp.

And this could very well allow them to reap the final benefits.

Xinggong doesn't want to see that outcome.

The numerous factions within the Reverse Star Alliance would also find it difficult to contain them.

Just as the two were hesitating.

On the distant horizon.

It seemed as if a small, blazing sun was rapidly approaching Toyotama Island.

This grand scene caused a great uproar among the many cultivators on the island.

Both the bearded man and Qing Yi, who sensed the danger, raised their eyebrows.

"Who is it? How dare they!"

"Hmph, how dare they provoke us!"

next moment.

A long, uninhibited howl came from outside the island:
"Barbarian Beard, Qing Yi, come out here for me!"

Upon hearing this, the bearded man raised his eyebrows: "It's Jin Kui!"

Qingyi stroked his beard: "What's he doing here?"

The two of them then turned to look at each other.

Han Li then stroked the teacup:
"I didn't bring these people here."
