I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 458: Chapter 240: Star River Monarch, Mid-stage Golden Core_2

At the moment Han Yi delved into the dark memories, Star River Monarch fell into the neighborhood. When the memory restrictions were absorbed and devoured, the soul guidance at the fingertips of the Star River Monarch dispersed. He confirmed that it was Yuan Shun, and he rose and flew, going deep into the Immortal Ring.

In the inn.

Han Yi opened his eyes, in his eyes, a trace of sorrow flowed, and with the sorrow came boundless rage.

“Fragrance Sect.”

“Star River Monarch.”

Han Yi muttered in a low voice, his eyes showing a murderous intent, dense like the unstoppable tide.

However, within only three breaths, this murderous intent and anger were suppressed deep within his heart.

Neither the Fragrance Sect nor the Star River Monarch was someone he could shake right now. At most, he could kill a few hall masters, eliminate a few Fragrance envoys, and destroy a few elixir refining fields. For the Fragrance Sect, these losses wouldn’t even be considered significant.

The Fragrance Sect was known to have eight Protectors. These eight were true monarchs. Han Yi had never imagined that the Star River Monarch of the Star Moon Sect was one of them.

It made him wonder whether the other seven protectors were also hiding within sects or within Daqian’s officials.

At this thought, Han Yi had a cold feeling in his heart.

The Fragrance Sect was one of the biggest heretics in the Yu Heng World. Above the eight Protectors, there was a Holy Master. Rumors had it that this Holy Master was a powerful being at the Spirit Transformation level.

With his current cultivation base, if he were to go against the Fragrance Sect, it would be like an ant shaking a big tree, a guaranteed death sentence.

“Don’t rush, now that I know who the enemy is, there will be opportunities to take revenge in the future.”

As Han Yi added this grudge to his list, he also made a final judgment about someone wanting to use Qin Wuxian to test Yuan Shun.

The Fragrance Sect was a heretic sect to begin with. From what he saw in the memories, it seemed that Qin Wuxian had accidentally stumbled upon their conspiracy, which led to him being killed by Star River Monarch. It wasn’t that someone had deliberately used him as bait.

It was just a misunderstanding. Han Yi had overthought it.

With that, Han Yi felt a sense of relief.

He stood up, left Shu Du overnight, released the Nine Orifices Immortal Boat, and headed towards the Ninth Immortal Ring. Once he crossed the Ninth Immortal Ring and left Shu Du, he then headed north towards Xuandan Sect.

With the Nine Orifices Immortal Boat, which was a top-quality immortal boat, he crossed the vast distance in just nine days and arrived at the new Xuandan Sect within Luofeng Country.

Han Yi retracted his immortal boat and landed on Xuandan Peak. His divine consciousness swept over the area, and Zhuge Wu You, who was keeping watch over Xuandan Peak, abruptly opened his eyes. He sent a message and called Si Hongxue, who had only recently returned to the sect.

Han Yi walked into the hall, looked at Zhuge Wu You, and then glanced at Si Hongxue.

“Don’t worry, I’ve informed junior sister about the actual situation.”

Han Yi nodded. Si Hongxue was one of the older generation’s Supreme Elders from Xuandan Sect and naturally had the right to know. Moreover, as one of the sect’s high-level combatants, it would only be beneficial if Si Hongxue knew about it.

“Brother Qin is dead,” Han Yi said through gritted teeth.

These words sent shockwaves through Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue. Although they had been mentally prepared given that Qin Wuxian’s Soul Tablet had shattered, they couldn’t help but feel great sorrow upon hearing Han Yi’s words. It took them a long while to recover.

“Tell us, what… what exactly happened?” Zhuge Wu You’s voice choked up. Han Yi had never seen this expression and emotion on his face before.

Cultivators were also humans, and it was natural for them to experience joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

Han Yi began to recount his experience slowly, modifying his account of the Soul Skill slightly to make it seem like a common soul-searching magic skill.

After he finished.

Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue remained stunned for three full minutes before they fully recovered from the shock of this news.

“The Fragrance Sect… it was actually the Fragrance Sect,” Zhuge Wu You murmured to himself.

“Yes, it was the Fragrance Sect. One of the eight Protectors of the Fragrance Sect is the previous Sect Master of the Star Moon Sect, Star River Monarch.”

“This is also why I didn’t dare to stay in Shu Du and left immediately.”

Han Yi explained, then asked:

“Brother Zhuge, what should we do next?”

Zhuge Wu You’s eyes swept over Han Yi, and then over Si Hongxue, whose blank eyes betrayed her deep sorrow. He silently sighed in his heart, but his expression had already recovered from sadness.

At this moment, he couldn’t afford to let his emotions sway him.

“Two things.”

“First, inform Shen Ping about this matter.”

“Second, wait.”

“Wait for the return of the Sect Master. For now, this is the only thing we can do.”

Han Yi remained silent. These two points that Zhuge Wu You had raised were naturally what he had thought of. These were also the things that the Xuandan Sect should do right now. With the loss of Qin Wuxian, the top combat strength of the Xuandan sect had suddenly vanished. If they encountered a formidable enemy, and if that enemy were reckless, the weak spot within the Xuandan sect would be exposed.

Not to mention the Southern Dipper Divine Palace or the Wanfa Sect, which possess Nascent Souls; even the nearby Golden Core Sects could start causing trouble for the Xuandan Sect. The Sumeru Valley, which wasn’t far away from the Xuandan Sect, might be the first to cause trouble.

Therefore, during this period, they need to stabilize the sect until Yuan Shun returns.

Zhuge Wu You suddenly turned to look at Han Yi.

“Junior brother Han, with the fall of brother Qin, even though my injury is healed, I still won’t be able to break through to the Golden Core Peak anytime soon. In the meantime, the sect will need to rely on you.”

Zhuge Wu You’s eyes showed an unprecedented expectation.

Han Yi felt a sudden sense of heaviness. This weight was invisible, but it was indeed there. It was both a burden and a stimulus.

His eyes were serious as he nodded firmly.

“Brother Zhuge, I understand.”

A moment later.

Shen Ping, who was in the sect, was also called over and informed about the death of Qin Wuxian.

The other two, Lian Tingxi and Zhu SiYuan, happened to be out on important matters. They would be informed once they returned..
