I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 479: Chapter 247: Ancient Corpse Conjecture,

Returning to Xuan Dan

Elsewhere.

Han Yi stacked his silver Xiezang Sword against the golden Yuan Xi Knife, intending to try and catch Xiao Gui off guard by suddenly striking him down. However, he did not expect three cultivators with terrifying auras to appear abruptly.

Judging from their auras, all three of them were Golden Core Peak cultivators. Among them, one stood out even among other Golden Core Peak cultivators, possessing the majesty of a genuine monarch. Han Yi had only ever seen such a threatening aura in Lv Bai of the Heavenly Will Sect.

These newcomers must be from Killing Mountain’s Master Killing.

The colorful small bead, which looked small but was heavy as a mountain, must certainly be a top tier magic treasure. It shattered the lower tier Xiezang Sword directly. Han Yi didn’t hesitate, retracting the Yuan Xi Knife and diving downwards.

The gold and silver long blades were prizes from his killing of the Yuan Beast Sect’s Huang Yu. One was named Yuan Xi and the other Xiezang. It was surprising that the silver Xiezang Sword was destroyed here.

However.

The purpose of killing Tian Boyi was accomplished. With another Supreme Master and three Golden Core Peak cultivators on the other side, sticking around wouldn’t do him any good. Han Yi naturally wouldn’t bite off more than he could chew.

So, without hesitation, he turned and fled.

Once he had fled a considerable distance, a faint sense of danger manifested in Han Yi’s heart. It was a threat coming from behind him. He knew that the cultivators from Killing Mountain must have caught up, including that Supreme Master.

In response, Han Yi transformed. From an aura perspective, he now completely concealed his cultivator identity, instead mimicking the aura of a Golden Core Stage demon cultivator.

After delving hundreds of kilometers into the Evil Mountain Range, Han Yi took to the air and launched the Immortal Boat towards the southwest, flying towards the Daqian Immortal Country. His varied technique and speed in no way slower than Master Killing coupled with the confusing Yi Yao Secret Skill, led Master Killing to lose Han Yi’s trail midway and forced him to quit the pursuit. He could only return angrily.

Once the thread of danger had completely dissipated, Han Yi maintained the Immortal Boat’s speed. It flew like lightning, crossing the Evil Mountain Range, where he even discovered the auras of seven or eight Foundation Establishment Stage demon cultivators and killed them on passing.

However.

Once he had passed the core of the Evil Mountain Range, Han Yi suddenly perceived the auras of at least ten Golden Core demon cultivators. Their auras were moving from the core of the range and heading east towards the Eastern Sea.

Han Yi stopped, perceived their auras again, but dared not linger any longer. The idea of killing a few demon cultivators immediately disappeared.

From his perception.

Among these demon cultivators, three or four auras were not much weaker than that of Master Killing. Han Yi swiftly increased his speed and escaped quickly.

“Where could such a group of Golden Core demon cultivators be heading to?” Han Yi pondered briefly before putting it out of his mind as it was none of his business.

After he had crossed the core passage of the Evil Mountain Range and fled another hundred kilometres, Han Yi finally slowed down and returned to a normal pace.

Half a month later.

Han Yi finally crossed the Evil Mountain Range and saw a Immortal City that was located around two hundred kilometres away from the range: Qingyang Immortal City, a relatively small city located in Qianzhou.

Han Yi didn’t linger. Instead, he bypassed the Immortal City and continued towards the west.

At his current location, The Chi Xiao Sword Sect, one of the Three Great Sects of Daqian was located several dozens of kilometres to the north while Yuan Lao Mountain was to the south.

Looking towards Yuan Lao Mountain located dozens of kilometers away, Han Yi could faintly see the spiritual light leaking out from the broken space above the mountain.

He withdrew his gaze but suddenly halted, a certain thought flashing through his mind. As soon as it emerged, a chill swept over him from foot to scalp, prompting goosebumps all over his body despite standing under the scorching sun.

Yuan Lao Mountain, the Ancient Corpse.

Tanggu Mountain Range, the cave, the soul eater.

Memories flashed and Han Yi’s shock deepened, but he forcefully calmed himself. Instead of acting on impulse, he nonchalantly continued on.

However, he was no longer calm.

Now, he remembered.

Inside the cave, Han Yi had thought the eerie phenomena were simply inherent to it, and Star River Monarch chose such an eerie cave to die in, or they started happening after he entered the Tanggu Mountain Range.

As for Han Yi himself, it could be chalked up to his heaven-defying destiny.

However.

Recalling the incident in his mind, a more logical guess arose in Han Yi’s heart.

The strange existence that swallowed the Star River Monarch’s Nascent Soul, the strange being that stood behind him, might not be related to the Star River Monarch, the cave, or the Tanggu Mountain Range. It could very possibly originate from… himself.

That’s right.

Han Yi already had several inexplicable things on him including the black bead in his Sea of Consciousness and many items inside the Qiankun Ring.

For example, the mysterious Cave Mansion, the black token that depicts ‘years’ ‘candle’, the Green Reed Sword, and…

The Ancient Corpse.

That’s right.

If there was something that could swallow the Star River Monarch’s Nascent Soul, by the process of elimination, the Green Reed Sword absolutely could not, the black token was merely a key and also didn’t have such power. There were only two things on his person whose level of power exceeded his understanding.

One is the black bead in his Sea of Consciousness. This bead was obtained from the deepest levels of the Void Domain, where every entity implanted a fear in Han Yi that was even greater than when facing a Spirit Transformation cultivator..
