Flame Transformation
Along the way, there were only the two people. In the beginning, Han Li and the woman surnamed Song did not say much.
However, when she saw Tianyi City from afar, she hesitantly asked, “Martial Uncle Han, countless Nascent Soul cultivators have entered Devilfall Valley since ancient times, but none of them have survived. Can Core Formation cultivators like us really find the spirit fruit and safely leave?”
Hearing this, Han Li was a little surprised. With a flash of azure light around his body, he slowed down and turned to look at the woman with a surprised expression.
Cultivator Song’s question was beyond his expectations.
However, after a moment of silence, Han Li indifferently said, “In terms of cultivation, you are naturally far inferior to the cultivators that entered the valley to acquire treasures. After encountering danger in the valley, your chances of survival are much lower than theirs. However, the reason why those cultivators perished in the valley was most likely because of greed. Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many Nascent Soul cultivators to enter the valley without a single survivor. It is most likely because they were tempted by the treasure and wanted to obtain more, or because they only wanted to find a spiritual medicine that could extend their lifespan or allow them to break through in a short amount of time. As such, it is only a matter of time before something happens.”
“According to Martial Uncle, we’ll also have a slim chance of survival if we go in, right?” Cultivator Song’s brows furrowed with worry.
“If I didn’t have a way to enter the valley and a safe route, I wouldn’t even consider entering Devilfall Valley. In the past, there were so many cultivators apart from Master Cang Kun. If it weren’t for these two conditions, I wouldn’t have even considered entering Devilfall Valley. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be taking treasures. I’d be committing suicide. Although your cultivation bases are low, so long as you don’t get greedy and if you find out the exact location of the Spirit Kindle Fruit, you’ll be able to head straight for the spirit fruit once you enter the valley. If your luck isn’t too bad, you’ll naturally have a chance to obtain it. Of course, Devilfall Valley is known as the most dangerous place in the Heavenly South Region. No matter how well prepared you are, you have to be prepared to die inside. If the Spirit Kindle Fruit was truly that easy to obtain, the Ghost Spirit Sect wouldn’t have waited until now to take action. The reason why they’re going to Devilfall Valley now is most likely because they saw that Marquis Nanlong had also obtained the method to enter the valley. They’re afraid that the other party will take away the treasures in the valley first, so they had no choice but to take the risk. I’m afraid their method to enter the valley is quite dangerous,” Han Li said after some hesitation.
“Since Martial Uncle guessed that the Ghost Spirit Sect’s method of entering the valley was inappropriate, why did you…” When the woman surnamed Song heard Han Li’s words, her beautiful eyes flashed with surprise.
“Why didn’t I say it in front of Violet Spirit and the others? Could it be that you thought I had other intentions?” Han Li smiled and said.
“I wouldn’t dare. Martial Nephew doesn’t have any intention of doubting Martial Uncle.” Cultivator Song hastily said with alarm.
“Don’t worry. It’s normal for you to have doubts. However, I didn’t say these words not because I had any ill intentions. Perhaps these words will be useful to you and Mei Ning, but they most likely won’t have any effect on Violet Spirit. You have to know that although the Fate Pill is extremely precious, it’s a waste for Core Formation cultivators. Not to mention Mei Ning, if she consumes this pill, she has a high chance of entering Core Formation. It’s worth a gamble. After all, after entering Core Formation, her lifespan can be extended by hundreds of years. However, you and Violet Spirit are only at the early Core Formation stage. Your aptitudes are also extraordinary. Even if you don’t take this pill, you’ll most likely be able to break through the bottleneck and enter the mid Core Formation stage. Taking this pill will only save the two of you a hundred years of cultivation time. On the one hand, you’ll save a hundred years of cultivation time, and on the other hand, you’ll have to take a risk to enter Devilfall Valley and fall into the trap of life and death. I don’t know what choice Martial Nephew will make, but Violet Spirit will most likely take a risk to enter the valley in order to reach Core Formation. She doesn’t want to remain a Core Formation cultivator. This will save her a lot of time for cultivation.”
“So you’re saying that Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit is determined to become a Nascent Soul cultivator? That’s why she’ll be willing to enter the valley no matter how dangerous it is!” Cultivator Song murmured with an odd expression on her face.
“That’s right. Violet Spirit’s experiences are somewhat different from yours and Mei Ning’s. She was once threatened by powerful cultivators several times, and even the sect that her mother passed down to her was occupied by other forces. Although she later escaped and never mentioned this matter to anyone, I can faintly sense that her pursuit of power is probably much stronger than that of ordinary people.” Han Li raised his head and looked at the red sunset in the distance as he recalled the past.
Then, under the stunned gaze of the woman surnamed Song, Han Li’s words seemed to have become louder. He paused for a moment before speaking again.
“If there really is a Spirit Kindle Fruit in the valley, I’ll most likely take the risk. After all, it’s extremely difficult to advance another level after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage. If I don’t seize this opportunity, I might be trapped to death at the early-Nascent Soul Stage for the rest of my life. However, this trip to Devilfall Valley isn’t imperative. I don’t want to waste my breath on useless words. When we really have to go to Devilfall Valley, I’ll naturally emphasize the dangers of this trip to you again and point out the possible flaws in the Ghost Spirit Sect’s method of entering the valley. However, this is only my guess. Perhaps the Ghost Spirit Sect has already researched on the method of entering the valley more thoroughly than Master Cang Kun. This isn’t impossible. This is also one of the reasons why I didn’t immediately say anything.”
Cultivator Song remained silent upon hearing this, but a hint of enlightenment appeared in her eyes.
“Alright, I originally didn’t want to say this to you, but since you’ve asked, I’ll tell you about it. Since you’ve come to Tianyi City, the most important thing now is to prevent yourself from dying in the upcoming battle. This is the most urgent matter. If you’re unlucky and something happens in the battle, you naturally don’t have to worry about Devilfall Valley. I’m the same. When I return to Tianyi City, this matter will be put to the back of my mind and I won’t ask about it again.” After saying this, Han Li revealed a self-deprecating smile.
“Many thanks for Martial Uncle’s guidance!” When the woman surnamed Song heard Han Li’s words, her heart trembled and she bowed in thanks.
“It’s not so much as guidance. You’ll understand after some thought. Alright, let’s enter the city. It’s getting late.” Han Li waved his hand with an indifferent expression.
“Yes, Martial Uncle!”
The streak of azure light continued to fly at full speed toward the city gate.
…
A few days later, in Tianyi City’s Drifting Cloud Sect encampment, Han Li was sitting cross-legged in the middle of a secret room with layers of restrictions placed outside. He held a huge sword that was five to six meters long behind him and was frowning as if he was thinking about something.
The sword was burning with strange purple and azure flames. They were Han Li’s Purple Apex Flames and the strange azure lantern flames.
After returning from Violet Spirit’s place that day, Han Li was dragged by Lu Luo to meet many Nascent Soul cultivators who were on good terms with the Drifting Cloud Sect.
In the past, it was difficult to meet a cultivator of this level. But now, in just a few days, Han Li had seen more than ten of them. It was a rare experience.
These cultivators naturally knew of Han Li’s reputation and did not dare to neglect him. They got along quite well and even chatted quite well.
However, after these few days, Han Li immediately found a quiet room and began to deal with the troubles from the battle at the Yellow Dragon Mountain. It was this azure flame that was constantly burning on the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword.
The Purple Apex Flames were able to remain unscathed on the sword because of their balancing effect.
Han Li did not know what kind of devilish flame this green lantern flame was, but its power was actually not inferior to his Purple Apex Flames. Although Han Li could manage to restrain it with his quantity, it was still a headache to refine it.
If this flame wasn’t eliminated, not only would he be unable to use the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword, but even the Celestial Ice Flame and Purple Apex Flames wouldn’t be able to easily attack the enemy.
Han Li naturally could not tolerate this.
Now, Han Li’s gaze flickered as he stared at the sword and pondered for a long while.
A short moment later, he tossed the huge sword into the air and struck it with an azure spell seal.
The huge sword immediately circled in the air above the room before transforming into several tens of small flying swords.
With a thought from Han Li, most of the flying swords turned into dozens of azure lights and shot directly into his body. Only one flying sword slowly descended and stopped in front of Han Li.
Han Li looked at the green-purple flames on the sword and narrowed his eyes. He suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a purple flame, directly hitting the surface of the flying sword.
Purple flames immediately erupted from the sword, suppressing the remaining azure flames.
Then, Han Li activated a spell seal in his hand, and the surging purple light forced the azure flame to one end of the sword. Not long after, it slowly forced it to the tip of the sword, turning into a small ball of azure light the size of a soybean.
Seeing this, Han Li’s expression became solemn.
He took a deep breath and began to flick his fingers, quickly striking the sword with various colored incantation seals.
In the blink of an eye, the purple flames on the sword grew even more powerful, forming waves after waves that fiercely pressed down on the speck of azure light.
The azure flames swayed incessantly at the tip of the sword, as if they could be extinguished at any moment.
However, under the pressure of the purple flames, the speck of azure light gradually began to shine brightly.
No matter how the purple flames were activated, it was as if they were born at the tip of the sword. They were indestructible.
A trace of anxiety flashed past Han Li’s eyes, and he increased the speed of his hand seals.
After a long while, seeing that the situation did not improve at all, Han Li’s expression turned ugly.
After some thought, a cold light flashed through his eyes and he raised a hand.
All five of his fingers and his palm were immediately covered in a layer of piercing purple flames.
Then, Han Li unceremoniously closed his fingers and directly pinched the azure flame on the flying sword.
