Chapter 863 - Chapter 863 Volume 6, Spirit Treasures, Chapter 860, Frankly Speaking

    ?Chapter 863: Volume 6, Spirit Treasures, Chapter 860, Frankly Speaking Chapter 863: Volume 6, Spirit Treasures, Chapter 860, Frankly Speaking The cave dwelling remained unchanged, even the cluster of Gold Devouring Beetles left to guard the dwelling had congealed into a tri-colored sphere, suspended in the middle of the hall, motionless.


    The Profound Heaven Immortal Vine and the Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng transplanted within the medicinal herb garden were also intact, as if he had only left yesterday.


    The residual root of the Profound Heaven Immortal Vine was not of much concern; Han Li did not harbor much hope for its revival.


    However, the Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng was far from ordinary, being a Spiritual Medicine that had long vanished from the outside world.


    Moreover, the ginseng had attained a spirit and even a transformed form, making it all the more rare and extraordinary.


    If it hadn’t been so inconvenient to carry the ginseng with him, Han Li truly would have wished to transplant and carry this Spiritual Medicine along.


    Regrettably, among the ancient prescriptions he had acquired thus far, none required the use of this ginseng.


    With a sigh of yearning, he was compelled to temporarily set aside this matter.


    Aside from the medicinal herbs in the garden, the eggs of the Six-Winged Frost Centipede and most of the Gold Devouring Beetles had been taken away by Han Li in a spirit beast pouch the last time he left the residence.


    There was no need to worry about those.


    In fact, the twenty-four eggs of the Six-Winged Frost Centipede had hatched while he was on his way to the westernmost regions, not long after setting out.


    But during the twenty-odd years trapped in tears in space, the bottle had been unable to generate more of the jade green liquid, resulting in the continued stasis of these insects’ growth above the larval stage, never having advanced further.


    Han Li placed them in a specially constructed spirit beast pouch, keeping them in a state of suspended animation.


    This was somewhat regrettable!

    Now, Han Li first relocated the Gold Devouring Beetles awaiting evolution back to their room, then he took out the extremely cold, specially made spirit beast pouch, and walked to the adjacent room where the Six-Winged Frost Centipedes were originally bred.


    He gently tipped the spirit beast pouch towards the room’s door.


    As a result, after a sweep of white radiance, more than twenty centipede larvae, each several inches in length, appeared in the middle of the room.


    These Six-Winged Frost Centipede larvae, translucent and gleaming white, showed not a hint of the growth of their wings, resembling enlarged white silkworms rather than anything fierce or terrifying.


    Initially, Han Li had obtained the Six-Winged Frost Centipede without knowing whether the species truly evolved through mutual devouring on Rainbow Skirt Grass, and had merely wanted to test the theory.


    However, he did not expect the breed to truly possess such evolutionary traits, which delighted him greatly.


    His original intention had only been to use the cold aura of the insects to cultivate the Purple Apex Flames.


    But after the battle in Devilfall Valley, Han Li had some other ideas in mind.


    The Gold Devouring Beetles were incredibly sharp, but their escape speed was a bit too slow; he feared that once they were fully cultivated, they might be quite limited in facing enemies with astonishingly fast speeds or in certain situations.


    The reason Six-Winged Frost Centipedes held such a high position on the insect rankings was not only due to their terrifying cold breath but also their speed, which was one of the fastest among all spirit insects.


    At the stage of two wings, their speed was not much inferior compared to other common spirit insects.


    But once another pair of wings grew, evolving to four wings, their speed increased dramatically, already surpassing the escape speed of common Spiritual Treasures.


    But the most terrifying aspect would be when they evolved a third pair of wings, their speed could rank within the top three of all spirit insects.


    It is said they could disappear without a trace, crossing thousands of miles in an instant.


    Of course, these descriptions were only hearsay mentioned in texts.


    Even in Ancient Times, the number of insects that evolved six wings was exceedingly few.


    Han Li was skeptical about this!


    Nonetheless, the Six-Winged Frost Centipede was undoubtedly an insect with astonishingly fast speed from Ancient Times, there was no doubt about that.


    In the battle against the ancient devilish techniques, Han Li suffered greatly from his opponent’s ghost-like movements and naturally thought of cultivating the Six-Winged Frost Centipede to its peak stage.


    Moreover, once reaching the six-winged stage, the cold breath spewed by the insect would naturally become even more powerful, which would also be greatly beneficial to his cultivation of Purple Apex Flames.


    With such a thought in mind, Han Li naturally looked upon these Six-Winged Frost Centipede larvae with new interest.


    Seeing that the larvae did not reject their new environment, Han Li felt assured and settled down.


    Just as he was about to observe for a while longer, his expression suddenly changed and he glanced towards the entrance of the cave dwelling, as if sensing something.


    Then his gaze flickered, and with a flick of his sleeve, a streak of white light shot out, and Silvermoon appeared in front of him, lively as ever.


    “Mu Peiling has now arrived at the gate; go and bring her to the hall.


    I happen to have some words to speak with her,” Han Li instructed in a deep voice.


    “Yes, Master!” Silvermoon did not ask further and obediently vanished on the spot in a streak of silvery light.


    Han Li then resealed the room for the Gold Devouring Beetles and, unhurried, returned to the main hall.


    A moment later, Han Li sat in the main seat of the hall, supporting his chin with one hand, motionless, as if deep in thought.


    Just then, soft footsteps sounded at the entrance of the hall.


    Silvermoon, with a smile brimming on her face, led the way into the hall, followed by Mu Peiling, whom he hadn’t seen for many years.


    Her appearance remained the same.


    No, it could be said that she seemed even more radiant and enchanting than before.


    The earlier aloofness had diminished significantly, replaced by an ethereal elegance akin to an orchid in a secluded valley.


    “Greetings, my lord.


    Congratulations on your safe return and the significant advancement to mid Nascent Soul stage,” Mu Peiling, with a flicker of a smile on her beautiful face, bowed neatly as she spoke.


    “To see me and congratulate me on reaching mid Nascent Soul stage directly, it seems you have already heard some news about me.


    There’s no need for such formality.


    You accompanied me to the westernmost regions back then, and though there was no merit, you shared the hardships.


    There’s no need for us to be so formal with each other anymore,” Han Li returned her smile and then gestured for her to rise and speak.


    Though the three years he had spent with her in the westernmost regions had brought them somewhat closer together, they were not yet intimately close, but their relationship had greatly improved from before.


    “Many thanks, my lord!” Mu Peiling gracefully rose to stand.


    “After returning from the westernmost regions back then, I never imagined that after parting from you, I would be trapped in Devilfall Valley for over two decades.


    Your commitment to staying here is quite heartening.”


    “As my lord’s concubine, and deeply indebted to my lord’s generosity, where else would I wait if not here?


    Moreover, I never believed that my lord would truly fall,” Mu Peiling replied, a humorous sparkle in her eyes.


    “I didn’t expect you to have so much faith in me.


    But indeed, it was extremely perilous this time, and I almost didn’t make it back.


    However, though you were assisted by some medicinal pills, your advancement in cultivation speed is also astonishing.


    How confident are you in your upcoming Core Formation?” Han Li laughed heartily before shifting the topic to her circumstances.


    “My lord, I have no assurance whatsoever.


    The chance of Core Formation is less than ten percent to begin with.


    Whether it happens depends on fate,” Mu Peiling said, a touch of helplessness on her face.


    “Fate?


    Hehe, that’s hard to say.


    I might be able to give you a hand with Core Formation so that you can increase your chances by another twenty to thirty percent,” Han Li said to her with a smile.


    “What?


    How could that be possible?


    My lord isn’t just jesting, right?


    I’ve never heard of such Spiritual Medicine in Tian Luo,” Mu Peiling’s red lips parted slightly, her face a picture of astonishment.


    “Most of the Spiritual Medicine I have isn’t native to Tian Luo.


    It’s natural you haven’t heard of them.


    But I assure you, with your aptitude, if you take all of these, the chance of Core Formation could approach fifty percent-that is not at all odd!” Han Li said with his usual calm composure.


    Having been with Han Li for so long, Mu Peiling knew he never made exaggerated claims, and she was inclined to believe him mostly.


    But after a moment of consideration, she still seemed hesitant.


    “My lord, you’re telling me this now-is there something you wish to instruct me to do?


    If there is, please tell me frankly,” Mu Peiling spoke softly.


    Han Li was slightly taken aback, surprised, but after a brief contemplation, decided to be direct:


    “Do you still remember the agreement when I took you as a concubine?” He went straight to the heart of the matter.


    “Of course, I remember.


    You promised me thirty years to cultivate, during which you wouldn’t claim my Primordial Yin Body,” Mu Peiling was initially startled, but her face swiftly turned a deep shade of red, making her look strikingly attractive.


    “It’s about time for that agreement to end.


    But don’t worry.


    I won’t make things difficult for you during the critical moment of your Core Formation.


    However, before you attempt Core Formation, there are some things that need to be clearly addressed.


    After that, you can properly weigh the pros and cons.


    I don’t want a situation where I use up all the Spiritual Medicine to help you form your Golden Core, only for you to change your mind and harbor resentment afterwards,” Han Li spoke slowly, his face expressionless but his words clear and calm.


    “My lord, what do you mean?” Mu Peiling was taken aback, lifting her head to look at Han Li with a flicker of confusion in her eyes.


    “I hope that after you form your Golden Core, you will abandon your current Cultivation Technique and begin cultivating an Incantation called Phoenix Subversion Cultivation Art,” Han Li stated with an odd expression.


    “Phoenix Subversion Cultivation Art?” Mu Peiling expressed some surprise.


    “Ladies rarely practice this dual cultivation technique.


    Once mastered to great depths, it can greatly benefit both individuals involved in their first bond.


    The improvement in cultivation itself is secondary; the key point is the incredible effect the Art has on breaking through cultivational bottlenecks.


    Of course, I won’t shy away from telling you, it mainly benefits the man in practice.


    That’s why I’m offering you additional compensation in advance, and I’ll do my best to help you form your Golden Core.


    Now that my cultivation has reached mid Nascent Soul Stage, to make Phoenix Subversion Cultivation Art beneficial for my breakthrough to Deity Transformation stage, it needs to be practiced until late Core Formation.


    Should you agree to this, I’ll continue to supply you with medicinal pills for the Core Formation Stage to speed up your cultivation.


    I cannot promise the world, but at the very least it can spare you a hundred years of arduous cultivation.


    Of course, if this does not suit you, I won’t insist.


    After this attempt at Core Formation, regardless of success, I will undo the divine restrictions in your mind, restoring your freedom, and from then on, we shall part ways,” Han Li explained serenely.


    Upon hearing this, Mu Peiling was greatly surprised, her thoughts thrown into turmoil as her expression flickered uncertainly.
