?Chapter 937: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 934 A Jumping Jack Chapter 937: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 934 A Jumping Jack After the time it took to finish a meal, Han Li’s silhouette appeared atop a not-so-high mountain peak.


    From a distance, he could barely make out the huge city gates and the bustling carriages and pedestrians in front, his expression as gloomy as water.


    “Forget it.


    Now that I know this demon is indeed in Great Jin, it’s an unexpected gain.


    You will always have the opportunity to snatch back the flying swords, but now is not the best time.


    Your cultivation has not fully recovered, and the Three Flame Fan has not been refined.


    Even though this demon had been severely injured earlier, with his overbearing magic techniques that absorb souls and consume elixirs, he has probably recovered much by now.


    If you confront him now, your chances of winning are not high,” the voice of Monarch Great Development transmitted calmly to Han Li’s divine sense.


    “What Senior said is correct, even if I do catch up now, the chances of retrieving them are only one or two out of ten.


    This ancient demon is indeed too formidable.


    Previously, I was just eager to retrieve the flying swords so I could deploy the Aureate Sword Formation, hence the rush.


    It seems I’ll have to wait until your puppet and that fan are refined before challenging this demon again.


    However, it seems the demon has urgent matters, fleeing so quickly that he has never noticed our presence.


    But clearly, he can’t handle the two Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords; he can neither subdue them nor bear to discard them.

    With Golden Lightning Bamboo as the main material, mixed with ice crystal pillar and Geng Scripture, these two flying swords are indeed incomparable to ordinary Magic Artifacts.


    Even if he wants to destroy these swords, he would have to deplete his Qi significantly and refine them with Nascent flames bit by bit.


    The demon would never do such a thankless task,” Han Li said with a cold laugh.


    “That’s also true.


    But then again, if you could really spend all your efforts refining those dozens of flying swords with Nascent flames for four or five hundred years each and use them to form a Sword Array, its terrifying power might not be inferior to a Spiritual Treasure,” Monarch Great Development sighed with some emotion.


    Back in his most glorious days, he had never aspired to use such rare materials to craft his magic treasures.


    “Hmm, maybe.


    But I can’t afford to spend most of my lifespan just to cultivate Magic Artifacts,” Han Li said with a wry smile.


    “Haha, you’re much wiser than I was.


    If I had been half as cautious as you in my time, I would have entered the Divinity Transformation Stage earlier.


    This demon showing up in Jinjing now is highly likely to attend the auction event.


    Han Li, you must be extra vigilant not to be recognized by this demon.”


    “Thank you for your concern, Senior.


    I will be careful.


    I originally planned to rely on the power of General Zhunan’s mansion to find out the details of the auction.


    It seems I’ll have to inquire myself.


    If I remember correctly, there is a tavern in Jinjing also owned by the Feng Family.


    Let’s go there first to avoid staying in an inn and attracting undue attention,” Han Li muttered softly.


    Straightening his clothes, he strode down the mountain and headed directly for the huge city gates in the distance.


    Although Jinjing City had been praised by ordinary mortals and some low-level cultivators as being beautiful and majestic, unparalleled in the world, to Han Li’s eyes, this city was several notches below the Stalwart Star City in the Scattered Stars Sea, the greatest city he had ever seen.


    But Jinjing had its own unique features.


    Not to mention, besides the outermost city wall, from the outside in, every mile featured the construction of another six huge walls, each one rising five or six zhang above the previous one.


    The last and tallest stone wall even stood more than forty zhang high; built with just the strength of mortals, it indeed was a remarkable feat.


    Besides having many walls, Jinjing was divided into thirteen major districts.


    The imperial city in the far north alone spanned tens of miles, and the other districts were not much smaller, also covering vast areas.


    However, compared to Stalwart Star City, Jinjing’s streets and buildings were densely packed, as numerous as cow hair.


    Walking through two districts from the city gate to an area within the city, Han Li had spent almost half a day.


    This made him, who was not accustomed to such speed for a long time, frown inwardly.


    Now, looking at the two-story tavern in front of him, Han Li, with an imperceptible expression, stepped in with his hands casually clasped behind his back.


    The tavern’s business was rather good at the moment, with most of the tables occupied by guests.


    After Han Li glanced around casually, he walked straight to the counter where a lanky middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper stood.


    When Han Li approached, without any pleasantries, his figure swayed left and right, blocking most of the other people’s gazes, and with a flick of his sleeve, a Jade Pendant quietly appeared on the counter.


    The pendant was face up, with the characters “Guan Ning Feng” inscribed on it.


    Upon seeing the Jade Pendant, the shopkeeper’s complexion changed slightly.


    After sizing up Han Li, he calmly picked up the pendant and examined it carefully.


    A moment later, the man suddenly put away the Jade Pendant and spoke in a lowered voice,


    “Follow me!”


    The shopkeeper turned and, without the other guests noticing, walked toward a side door on the first floor of the tavern.


    Han Li followed him through the door.


    “So the esteemed young master has arrived.


    I, Feng Quan, pay my respects to the young master,” the shopkeeper led Han Li into a secluded room, immediately handed the Jade Pendant back with both hands, and spoke respectfully.


    It seemed he also mistook him for the now deceased Feng Yue.


    “Find me a place to stay where I won’t be disturbed by anyone.


    It cannot be in this tavern, preferably somewhere nearby with no other people.


    You’re the only one who needs to know about my arrival here.


    Don’t let a second person in this tavern find out,” Han Li commanded without any courtesy, speaking coldly.


    “Yes, I will arrange accommodations for the young master right away.


    Please rest here a while, young master.


    It will only take a half-day,” the shopkeeper Feng said without hesitation, seemingly quite capable.


    “Good, make it quick,” Han Li nodded, giving his approval.


    After that, shopkeeper Feng bowed out of the room, carefully closed the door, and hurried away.


    Han Li then casually pulled over a chair to sit down and closed his eyes to rest in the room.


    After some time, Han Li’s expression shifted as he opened his eyes upon hearing footsteps outside the door again.


    A few moments later, Shopkeeper Feng burst in, full of excitement.


    “Young Master, I have found a suitable place.


    The owner of the residence is an old acquaintance of mine; his entire family has moved away and left the house vacant.


    They won’t be coming back for the next couple of years.


    I made some slight arrangements there.


    You can move in right away.”


    “Mm, well done.


    Lead the way,” Han Li praised as he spoke.


    “Thank you for your undeserved praise, Young Master.


    Please follow me,” Shopkeeper Feng said respectfully as he walked a few steps ahead, with Han Li following him out of the room.


    As they exited through the back door of the tavern, a fairly new two-wheeled carriage awaited at the entrance, with an old man of slight stoop sitting in the driver’s seat.


    “You’ve been considerate to prepare the carriage too.


    But didn’t I tell you not to mention my arrival to any other staff of the tavern?


    What’s the deal with this man?” Han Li glanced at the carriage and then scrutinized the white-haired and bearded old coachman, narrowing his eyes slightly.


    “Reporting to Young Master, this old Daoist Wu is hard of hearing and can’t perceive any spoken words, so he won’t be saying anything out of turn.


    Besides, the residence is a bit far from here, and it’s necessary to travel by carriage,” Shopkeeper Feng replied with respect.


    “I see, alright then.” Han Li frowned slightly, but after a moment of contemplation, he still boarded the carriage.


    Shopkeeper Feng also got into the carriage.


    Without waiting for their instructions, the stooped old man shook the reins on his own accord, and the carriage slowly moved forward.


    Han Li sat cross-legged inside the carriage, closed his eyes once more, and remained expressionless.


    Shopkeeper Feng sat quietly in a corner of the carriage, head bowed in silence.


    The carriage didn’t move quickly.


    After passing through a dozen streets, both large and small, it suddenly changed direction, heading for another district.


    An hour later, the carriage stopped in front of a secluded courtyard.


    There were truly no other dwellings nearby.


    It stood alone, giving it a somewhat desolate appearance.


    Han Li and Shopkeeper Feng disembarked, one after the other.


    “This is the place, Young Master!


    I will go in first and check if the servants have properly tidied up the house for you,” Shopkeeper Feng said with a smile, taking a few steps forward and about to push open the door.


    But at that moment, a faint voice from Han Li rose from behind, “Do you intend to escape into the front restrictive formations first, then let the three inside take me down?”


    Hearing this, Shopkeeper Feng was immensely startled and, without further thought, his figure lunged forward, violently pushing the door in front of him, trying to rush into the nearby courtyard.


    But just then, a red line eerily surfaced behind Shopkeeper Feng’s head, piercing through him in a flash.


    Instantly, a blaze engulfed his body, and in the blink of an eye, he was reduced to nothingness.


    The stooped old man sitting on the carriage, upon witnessing Han Li’s action, cried out without hesitation, “Attack!”


    With that, he flung his hand, unleashing a green glowing dagger that turned into a streak of azure light, slashing swiftly towards Han Li.


    Simultaneously, a yellow fog burst forth from the seemingly peaceful and uninhabited courtyard, quickly enveloping the entire yard.


    From within the fog, a black flying pitchfork and two fiery red spears shot forth, all converging on Han Li.


    Han Li sneered, flicking his sleeve casually at the approaching azure rainbow.


    A verdant mist rolled out from his sleeve, sweeping up the light of the dagger and then spiraling back into the sleeve.


    His other hand nonchalantly reached out towards the three incoming Spiritual Artifacts, and a greenish ghostly hand emerged in the air, lightning-fast seizing them.


    The flying pitchfork and spears were grabbed, rendered completely motionless.


    Exclamations of shock came from within the yellow fog, while the stooped old man turned pale upon seeing this.


    The adversary before him effortlessly took their Magic Artifacts-what that signified, he was well aware.


    Without hesitation, the old man flipped his palm over, producing a Daoist paper talisman glowing faintly with blood red light.


    Gritting his teeth, he sprayed a mouthful of blood essence onto the talisman.


    In an instant, the talisman turned into a blood cloud enveloping him and burst into the sky, whisking the old man away to a spot ten yards above in the blink of an eye.


    The cultivators within the yellow fog reacted just as quickly, with three differently colored orbs shooting out and scattering in all directions, desperately fleeing.
