Chapter 497 – Spiritual Milk and Soul Nurturing Wood
The white water curtain had landed, and Han Li looked at the woman, a clear look returning to his eyes.
”It seems that I don’t have this eye candy. What a bit of a pity!” Han Li muttered.
When Yuan Yao heard this, her face first turned red, but she laughed a few times and said with a pursing of her red lips, “Didn’t Brother Han go to the fifth floor with those high people? How could he appear here in my daughter’s place?” Saying this, she stretched out a jade hand and elegantly caressed her wet hair. After a flash of white light, the long hair instantly dried, and a few strands of green silk crossed its cheeks, lining the snow-white skin and adding three more points of this woman’s splendor.
Han Li eyes revealed a trace of appreciation. This woman alone on the posture, is definitely Han Li has seen women in the number two, hands and feet are not pleasing to the eye, so that the man’s heart intoxicated.
”I merely triggered a prohibition, and was transported here. Mister Han was about to ask Miss Yuan where exactly is this place?” Han Li turned around the other party’s warm jade-like face a few times and said with a calm expression.
”Triggering a prohibition?” Yuan Yao’s eyes flowed, revealing an expression that looked like a smile, not believing what Han Li said at all. However, Han Li indifferently snorted and stared at this woman indifferently without saying a word.
A hint of redness rose on Yuan Yao’s face, and she had a bit of a headache with Han Li’s stalker-like behavior. In terms of getting her hands dirty, she had witnessed the horror of Han Li’s Insect Repellent Technique, and her most skillful flattery was not at all effective against this person.
She wrinkled her slender eyebrows and had to say somewhat helplessly, ”This is the secret room on the second floor of the inner hall, how dare you come out of such a shabby teleportation array? If I had known this, I would have smashed that teleportation formation to pieces first, otherwise I wouldn’t have to be taken advantage of so much by you.” After saying this, Yuan Yao glared at Han Li somewhat unwillingly, seemingly still a bit indignant about him seeing his carcass.
Han Li heard this, but as if he hadn’t heard anything his face didn’t redden in the slightest, instead he lazily stretched down his waist and pulled his feet out of the pool water to put on his boots again. Just this short moment of immersion had allowed him to recover some of his mana. Although he still wanted to soak for a while longer, he was more interested in finding a way out and escaping from the Void Sky Hall as soon as possible.
Thus, Han Li no longer paid any attention to this Yuan Damsel and lifted his foot towards the exit of the stone house to the south.
Standing at the exit and looking at it for a few moments, what he saw was a scene of chaos and confusion. Outside was a larger stone house, inside the house there was a dismantled puppet lying there, looking at the nearby potholes, it was obvious that Yuan Yao had arrived here after a bitter battle.
Opposite the stone house was a stone door, on which flickered the white haze light that Han Li was so familiar with. This was precisely the exact same forbidden light on the stone doors of those secret rooms from the first to the fifth floor.
Han Li hesitated for a moment, but still walked over, and after looking at it for a moment, he took out the piece of Void Sky Remnant Diagram from his body, injected it with spiritual energy, and then gently pasted it onto the stone door. As a result, after a flash of white light, the stone door was unresponsive.
Han Li sighed! Sure enough, once inside, wanting to go back out from the inside with this remnant map was simply not possible. And he thought to himself that he wasn’t so capable of breaking this prohibition. Thus, without thinking, he immediately turned back and headed for the northern exit.
”What are you doing? Inside there is a formidable formation that cannot be broken by ordinary people. Could it be that you want to break the formation and take the treasure?” Yuan Yao’s gaze moved along with Han Li’s figure, and after blinking her beautiful eyes, she suddenly opened her mouth and said coldly.
”I want to leave the Void Sky Hall! Does Fellow Daoist Yuan have a better suggestion?” Han Li, who had already walked to the other side of the exit, said without looking back.
”No! However, the treasures here are the ones that my daughter saw first, could it be that Fellow Daoist Han wants to compete with Yuan Yao for them?” Yuan Yao’s bright eyes flashed a few times, and her face revealed something strange as she said.
”Fetch the treasure? Fellow Daoist Yuan hasn’t been here for a short period of time! If you could really break the restrictions inside, it seems like you should have gotten it long ago!” Han Li said nonchalantly as he stood at the exit looking at the green saddled southern ridge inside.
”I’ve already got some eyebrows after these days of research, and I’ll definitely be able to break the restrictions inside in another three to five days!” Yuan Yao’s face first reddened for a moment, but then she said with a sunken expression, actually revealing that she refused to give in.
Hearing this, Han Li was a bit surprised and turned around, half squinting his eyes, looking at the woman without saying a word.
Yuan Yao became a little apprehensive in her heart. After a moment’s effort, she finally couldn’t help but back down and said, “Alright! I admit that if I were to break the formation alone, it is true that I might not be able to find anything even before the Void Heavenly Hall returns. However, if you are going to break the formation now, I can cooperate with Brother Han for once, and I think it will save you a lot of time.”
Hearing this, Han Li quietly stood there with his complexion unchanged as he continued to wait for this woman to continue. He knew very well that this great beauty must still have some next words she hadn’t finished speaking.
”However, before breaking the formation. I, the youngest daughter, would like to make a deal with fellow Daoist first.” Yuan Yao stared at Han Li and slowly said.
”What kind of deal? I can listen to it!” Han Li clasped his hands over his shoulders and assumed a posture of listening.
”As long as Brother Han is willing to give up the treasures inside, I am willing to make another compensation!”
”Compensation!” Han Li’s expression was bland, not showing the slightest bit of expression.
Seeing Han Li in this manner, Yuan Yao revealed a hesitant expression. But after bowing her head in contemplation for a moment, she snapped her head up, revealing a resolute expression.
”I’m willing to gift some ‘Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk’ to fellow Daoist, I wonder what Brother Han thinks?” Yuan Yao said with a grave expression.
”Ten thousand year spirit milk? Is that the legendary drop of spiritual liquid that a small mouthful can instantly restore all of one’s mana, and that tens of thousands of spirit stones cannot even be sought?” Han Li’s expression changed, and he was somewhat moved.
”Not bad, it is this spiritual substance. I took the risk of informing you because I believe in Brother Han’s character. Brother Han won’t do anything to kill and seize the treasure from my daughter, right?” Yuan Yao’s eyes flowed as her bright eyes stared intently at Han Li’s face as she slowly said.
Through some contact with Han Li on the Ghost Mist and Lava Road, this woman thought that although Han Li wasn’t a gentleman, he didn’t seem to be the kind of ruthless, poisonous, and heartless person. Only then some reluctance to say these words. Of course, if she had other treasures that could impress Han Li, she wouldn’t have said the words “ten thousand year old spirit milk”. But even so, at this time, Yuan Yao’s pair of jade hands still inadvertently pressed on the storage bag at her waist. Although she was not Han Li’s opponent, she still had one or two extremely powerful life-saving treasures, which was enough to prevent Han Li from really having bad intentions, which was also one of the relies on which she dared to say these words.
Han Li rubbed his nose and indifferently didn’t say anything, instead he suddenly turned his head to look at the dragon head relief, a hint of contemplation appearing on his face.
”It seems that Brother Han has guessed it as well. My Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk is indeed the accumulation of this Spiritual Spring for these many ten thousand years to produce that small half bottle. But in this way, fellow Daoist must also know that my daughter has no intention of cheating!” Yuan Yao said in a soft voice with a change in tone.
”Not bad! Such a large Spirit Spring here, if it is truly designed skillfully enough and no one else has come here, it is indeed capable of producing some Spirit Milk.” Han Li calmly and unusually nodded his head.
”Then what does daoyou mean?” Yuan Yao asked as her flowery face blossomed with radiance.
”Is Miss Yuan able to tell me what treasure is hidden inside? Since you, Taoist friend, are willing to pay such a large price, I’m sure the treasures inside should be even more precious.” Han Li looked at Yuan Yao and asked nonchalantly, his eyes revealing an icy coolness.
As soon as Yuan Yao saw Han Li’s expression, she somehow suddenly felt a chill at her back, and was actually flustered for a while.
”Brother Han is really joking! This is also the first time that my daughter has come here, so how do I know what treasures are hidden inside? Han brother much heart! Good …… well! I’ll be honest. I do know what treasures are inside, but although the value of this item is not below that of the ten thousand year old spirit milk, it is more important to me, which is why Yuan Yao is willing to exchange it for the spirit milk. There is an unused Soul Nurturing Wood inside!” Yuan Yao initially wanted to forcefully smile and shove her way through, but after seeing the cold color in Han Li’s eyes grow colder and colder, she hastily changed her words and said so. For some reason, this woman’s heart skipped a bit when she thought of Han Li’s flip-flopping appearance.
”One of the Three Great Divine Woods, a strange wood that can be worn to nourish the soul and spirit and slowly grow the Divine Sense!” Han Li was stunned, and only after half a second did he ask in dismay.
”It is this item. However, what I fancy is not its miraculous effect of nourishing the Yuan Shen, but rather this wood’s ability to host the soul and ensure that the Divine Sense does not dissipate.” Yuan Yao seemed to have thought of something and said in a low voice with a gloomy expression.
”Soul nourishing wood, ten thousand year old spirit milk!” Han Li raised his head to look at the roof of the stone room and muttered to himself under his breath.
