A mortal who has been a god for eight hundred years takes Han Li as his disciple!

This group of Nascent Soul cultivators who entered the Fallen Demon Valley suffered some losses, but naturally, some also gained something.

Some cultivators were extremely lucky; as soon as they entered the Fallen Demon Valley, they were directly teleported to the sky above a medicinal garden.

Although the herb garden had some restrictions in place, they were still of no use.

Some cultivators obtained magical artifacts and ancient treasures left behind by ancient cultivators when they fell on the road.

Some cultivators even obtained the relics of those who had perished in the Fallen Demon Valley.

While this made them happy, it also brought a sense of sadness to their hearts, and they even had the thought of retreating and leaving.

……

Meanwhile, Zhao Changsheng arrived at a mountain ridge, which consisted of dozens of peaks.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a mountain range, and behind this mountain range was a blood-red glow that obscured the sky, making it look incredibly eerie.

These crimson rays of light are not naturally formed, but rather a restriction left over from ancient times.

These restrictions were not only ineffective against Nascent Soul cultivators, but even Zhao Changsheng couldn't help but frown.

He sensed a slight danger, but he wasn't too concerned.

Of course, Zhao Changsheng was also very clear about the purpose of these restrictions: to stop the ancient demon that was sealed and suppressed. Unfortunately, they did not play a significant role.

The ancient demon still managed to escape.

However, it did play a significant role in ancient times. Even though Zhao Changsheng did not witness the great battle in ancient times, he could imagine it based on the few records in ancient books and the various strange phenomena formed in the Fallen Demon Valley.

Even he might not have been able to escape unscathed in such a great battle, which shows just how brutal that battle was.

Thinking of this, Zhao Changsheng couldn't help but have the idea of ​​setting off for Kunwu Mountain.

But Zhao Changsheng also knew that now was not the time. He needed to resolve things here and get what he needed first.

Especially Lingmiao Garden, where he planned to cultivate for hundreds of years in order to successfully break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

If he can successfully break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm this time, then he will no longer need to worry about whether he can reach the Great Perfection of the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

With his lifespan and the system within him, even if his cultivation is slow, he will still be able to reach the Great Perfection of the late Nascent Soul stage.

Once this step is successfully achieved, one can ascend to the Spirit Realm to cultivate on their own.

He believed that once he entered the Spirit Realm to cultivate, his cultivation speed would definitely be much faster.

After all, he's someone who has a system.

But what Zhao Changsheng needs to do now is to go deep into this mountain range.

Therefore, Zhao Changsheng began to explore one mountain peak after another.

Half a day later, a scene of green trees, rocks, giant trees and vines appeared in front of Zhao Changsheng, which looked completely unremarkable.

"This illusion is quite powerful, but I don't know whether it was set up by Master Kunwu or by an ancient demon."

After a brief moment of reflection, Zhao Changsheng simply waved his hand forward.

Suddenly, a pale golden light burst forth from his sleeve, instantly destroying everything in front of him.

This is his strength at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

With a wave of his hand, he could destroy all the illusions before him, and what appeared before him was a completely different scene.

The original vegetation and rocks have all disappeared, replaced by a bizarre scene. As far as the eye can see, there are only white stones.

Moreover, each one looked as if it had been washed by water for countless years, becoming smooth and round, some the size of a head, others the size of a fist.

However, what is most attractive is the hazy fog ahead.

These mists were confined to an area that was only about a hundred feet wide.

The reason was the crimson glow on both sides.

Zhao Changsheng smiled slightly upon arriving here, and then grabbed at the mist with his palm. Instantly, the mist seemed to be under control, transforming into a giant hand that pulled out the demonic beast within.

This was a giant python, as black as ink, several tens of feet long, with a very thick body covered in black scales.

However, these black scales showed signs of damage, and there were even some knife scars. Clearly, the giant python was injured before Zhao Changsheng arrived.

Now, this giant python, powerful enough to contend with a Nascent Soul cultivator, had its green eyes filled with a human-like fear—fear of Zhao Changsheng.

He hadn't expected that Zhao Changsheng could control the gray mist and use it to capture him.

This giant python also possessed considerable intelligence and naturally knew that Zhao Changsheng was someone it could not afford to provoke.

Therefore, he let out a mournful cry, as if begging Zhao Changsheng for mercy.

Upon hearing this mournful cry, Zhao Changsheng revealed a meaningful smile.

"Is this your way of begging for mercy? If so, I can promise to let you go, but you must become my spirit beast. Are you willing?"

Zhao Changsheng's words were very simple, but the giant python heard them very clearly and immediately let out another mournful cry.

At the same time, he pointed to his three heads, clearly indicating his agreement.

Seeing this, Zhao Changsheng was quite surprised. He then immediately placed a binding seal on the giant python to establish its master.

"From today onwards, you will be my spirit beast. Remember to be obedient and you'll reap the rewards."

The fact that this giant python has grown to this size is enough to prove its potential.

This is also what Zhao Changsheng values.

Upon hearing Zhao Changsheng's words, the giant python immediately lay down, as if inviting Zhao Changsheng to stand on its back.

Zhao Changsheng understood the giant python's meaning and flashed to appear directly on the python's largest head.

"Let's go, let's set off."

Zhao Changsheng stepped on the giant python's massive head, and the python obediently moved forward quickly.

On both sides of them was a blood-red glow, making it impossible to see clearly what was happening in the sky or on either side.

Before Zhao Changsheng arrived, the giant python had fought with other Nascent Soul cultivators and suffered considerable injuries due to its defeat.

Zhao Changsheng deduced this from the injuries on the giant python's body.

This is enough to prove that the cultivators who entered the Fallen Demon Valley without using the teleportation array were quite strong.

It was precisely for this reason that Zhao Changsheng was quite worried about the Fire Toad Beast's situation.

This is a rare ancient beast, and one of his targets.

Hopefully, they weren't killed by the previous batch of cultivators who entered the Fallen Demon Valley, or by the ancient demons who escaped.

However, Zhao Changsheng knew very well that there were still many good things on this road leading to the place where the demon soul was sealed.

This is also a major reason why Zhao Changsheng still came here even though he knew that the ancient demon had been killed by his own hands.

Because there are so many good things along this road, and now that he's here, he absolutely can't let them go.

And this giant python was one of his gains.

But he didn't expect that he could subdue the giant python so easily.

Of course, this was mainly because the power he displayed terrified the giant python.

The giant python carried Zhao Changsheng for about several dozen miles before finally stopping in front of a tall stone wall. This stone wall had a cave inside, which was about ten meters wide.

Upon seeing the stone wall, Zhao Changsheng smiled.

He knew very well that as long as he passed through this cave, he could enter the inner valley of the Fallen Demon Valley.

Of course, there is more than one passage into the inner valley, but this one is easier to walk through.

In the original storyline, the passage that Han Li chose was for the purpose of obtaining the inner core of the Fire Toad Beast.

Zhao Changsheng was interested not only in the inner core of this ancient beast, but also in all the good things he had found along the way.

Most importantly, Zhao Changsheng was worried that the ancient demon might have left some hidden tricks, so he had to come here to check in order to prevent any accidents from happening.

There was nothing that could be done; in the original storyline, the ancient demon's soul had split off into a fragment and possessed Cangkun Shangren.

This was also what Zhao Changsheng was worried about, fearing that the ancient demon had left behind a fragment of its soul before leaving the Fallen Demon Valley, just to ensure that he would not be completely annihilated.

In fact, this is not the exclusive domain of ancient demons. On the contrary, many cultivators in the cultivation world have left behind such methods. Otherwise, there would be no such method of creating a second nascent soul.

The purpose was to ensure that he wouldn't be completely wiped out and would at least survive.

In fact, Zhao Changsheng also knew this method of creating clones, and had even cultivated several different versions.

If he were to encounter a truly fatal crisis, his backup plans would be activated, provided that even one of them succeeds.

Then he wouldn't be considered completely finished, and he would still have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

What Zhao Changsheng needs to do now is not to enter the cave, but to take the materials from the mountain wall.

The material found in the mountain wall is called Gangyin Sand, and this is a Gangyin Sand mine.

Even Zhao Changsheng valued this material highly because it was one of the hardest materials in the cultivation world.

If it's for crafting a magical artifact, it can make the artifact even harder.

Therefore, this is also one of Zhao Changsheng's goals.

Finally, Zhao Changsheng released the Gold-Eating Insects he had carefully cultivated for many years.

We've used them quite a few times, and this time we'll need these gold-devouring insects again.

Although he could do it himself, it would be best to use these gold-devouring insects.

As for the method of using these gold-devouring insects to mine the silver sand, Zhao Changsheng had already learned it long ago.

It wasn't prepared for today, but because this method is really useful and helped him get a lot of materials.

And now it's time to use it again.

Soon, all the gold-devouring insects released by Zhao Changsheng entered the mountain wall and disappeared.

After confirming that the Gold-Eating Insects were all alright, Zhao Changsheng entered the cave with peace of mind.

Because he had other things to do, he couldn't stay here forever and watch the Gold-Eating Insects extract the Silver Sand from inside.

This is completely unrealistic.
