Chapter 1645 – Futile Efforts
”I killed the Cave Spirit, but the true origin of the possession of this thing, do you know anything about it.” Han Li’s expression was light, and instead of directly answering what the man with the surname of Gui asked, he asked a rhetorical question.
Upon hearing Han Li ask such a question, both the man with the surname Kei and Fiberfine’s faces changed slightly, and they couldn’t help but glance at each other.
”If brother Han has any doubts, why don’t you tell us!” Fibrous was silent for a moment before slowly saying.
”It’s nothing, it’s just that when this thing was dying, it claimed to be the incarnation of the Heavenly Demon Lord. In regards to this, I wonder what the two of you have to say?” Han Li revealed a glib look.
”Heavenly Demon Monarch!”
”Impossible!”
This time, Fiber and the man with the surname Kei exclaimed almost in unison, and simultaneously revealed a look of fear.
”Oh, this is the first time I’ve heard of this Heaven’s Beyond Demon Monarch, but looking at the two of you, it seems like you understand it exceptionally well. I wonder if you can shed some light on it for Han.” Han Li raised an eyebrow, his gaze straight at the two of them.
The man surnamed Kei let out a cold snort and his face clouded over, seemingly uninterested in interfacing anything.
The woman of the Crystal Race, on the other hand, hesitated for a moment before explaining with her sandalwood mouth slightly opened, “Brother Han should know that the Heavenly Demon Heads, right? Heavenly Demon Monarchs are the top-ranked existence among the Heavenly Demon Heads. They generally take on millions of incarnations, that is, when an existence such as a True Spirit encounters this top-ranked Demon Monarch invading the mind when crossing a tribulation, an inadvertent mistake could be demonized, thus becoming a puppet.”
”Even True Spirits can’t avoid it!” Han Li’s gaze sank upon hearing this.
”Not only True Spirits, I’ve heard that even Immortals in the True Immortal Realm have the possibility of being demonized and controlled when they encounter a Heavenly Demon Lord. Of course, this matter is only rumored, and no one has seen whether it is true or not. On the contrary, brother Han said that this cave spirit was possessed by the Heavenly Beyond Demon Lord’s control, but is that really the case?” Fiber first let out a bitter laugh, and then couldn’t help but reconfirm again.
”What, Fairy Fiber thinks that I’m deceiving you with false words.” After Han Li heard the true origin of the Heaven’s Beyond Demon Monarch, he was appalled, and naturally his mind turned in a hundred directions, but his face didn’t move as he said back.
”How could my little sister think so, it’s just that this matter is not trivial, before having to ……”
”I would think that what he said is mostly likely to be true.” Without waiting for Fiber to say something else, the man surnamed Kei, whose gaze was gloomy for a moment, made an expressionless interjection.
”What does Fellow Daoist Kei mean by that?” Not only was Han Li a bit surprised, but Fiber also stared at his beautiful eyes and asked softly.
”Hmph, don’t pretend to be confused. I just don’t believe that you haven’t discovered the strangeness of this Cave Spirit. You should know very well that Heaven and Earth living beings such as Acrobat Spirits simply cannot be possessed and controlled by ordinary existences. Even you and I would never be able to do so. Moreover, this thing’s earlier statement that it has already killed several ordinary existences such as us should not be false.” The man with the surname Kei coldly replied back.
”Even if that’s the case, how did it know about the True Spirit’s Cavern and the True Lin Origin, and was waiting for a rabbit here.” Feline shook her head and retorted.
”That’s not very speculative. It could be that when this Heaven’s Beyond Demon Monarch incarnation broke into this realm by fluke, he unintentionally first devoured an existence like you and I that escaped back then, and knew where this place was. It could also be that it was really a coincidence that it first crashed into this place and controlled the cave spirit before knowing about us by devouring others who found this place.” The man with the surname Kei spoke grimly.
”If you put it like that, there are a few possibilities. But whether or not that’s really the case, we won’t know once we check. If I remember correctly, any living being that has been possessed by a Heavenly Demon Lord will eventually have their bodies completely transformed into demonic dust. Even though this cave spirit has a strange body, it can’t be spared.” Fiber spoke while her beautiful eyes looked downward.
Hearing this, Han Li also looked down with some curiosity. As a result, he couldn’t help but be startled after taking a look.
Previously clearly gray stone general strange face remains, actually do not know when the transformation into a large pile of black ash, quietly lying on the ground below.
Han Li spent a lot of effort, only finally from these black dust to see a few parts of the original appearance of the strange face, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch a little.
In such a situation, the other two naturally looked into their eyes.
The Crystal Race woman didn’t say anything, just sighed softly, while the man with the surname Gui raised his hand and grabbed at the empty space below.
At that moment, a mass of black ash directly transformed into a wisp of black smoke, was taken into the man’s hands, and gazed up.
”Not bad, it is indeed Demonized Dust.” The man with the surname Kei’s gaze flickered, and only after a while did he toss the black ash in his hand and calmly said.
”It seems that what brother Han said is true, this cave spirit is really controlled by the incarnation of the Heavenly Demon Lord, no wonder it’s so difficult to deal with. Earlier, the two of us also unknowingly fell into its trap and almost lost our lives to it. Speaking of which, little sister really needs to thank brother Han for his helping hand.” With a light smile and a stream of light in her eyes, Fiancian said in thanks to Han Li.
”It’s nothing, it was only by a fluke that I was able to decapitate this devil. This devil really has strange aptitudes and is really not easy to deal with.” As soon as Han Li recalled the black-robed man’s earlier illusion of immortality within the monstrous face, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch, and his heart was greatly scandalized.
”This is definitely natural. This is still the reason that the Cave Spirit doesn’t have a solid body and can’t truly demonize to bring into play one-twelfth of its divine power. Otherwise, the greatness of the Heavenly Demon Lord’s divine power is almost no less than that of a True Immortal in the Immortal Realm. Even by its incarnation control demonized existence, also terrible to the extreme, is by no means we can now deal with. However, I’m afraid it won’t rest easily after its incarnation was decapitated by Fellow Daoist Han. In the future, if fellow Daoist really transits that ascension tribulation, this demon will most likely still interfere in person.” A cold light flashed in the eyes of the man with the surname Kei, but he said something like this.
”The Ascension Tribulation! Hehehe, such a faraway thing, I won’t even think about it.” Han Li, however, hemmed and hawed as if he wasn’t the least bit worried.
”Alright. Since Fellow Daoist Fiber and I have already cleared up the confusion for Your Excellency, isn’t it time to bring up the matter regarding the True Lin Source.” The man with the surname Kei sneered before mentioning the ultimate purpose of this trip once again.
”Regardless of what the Source of True Lin looks like, I did not see a single bit of it within the cave spirit.” This time, Han Li, however, was quick and unusually direct in his reply.
However, upon hearing Han Li’s words, the man with the surname Kei’s complexion instantly darkened. The woman’s beauty was wrinkled, and she also revealed a pensive look.
Strangely enough, the two did not show an expression of anger or skepticism.
Han Li’s eyes narrowed, and his heart became somewhat strange.
”What does Fellow Daoist Kei think?” The Crystal Race woman suddenly smiled and actually asked the man surnamed Kei.
”It’s true that there is no fluctuation of True Lin Origin on Fellow Daoist Han’s body, this thing and we originally came from the same body, it is simply impossible to conceal our senses with treasures and prohibitions, so naturally, we didn’t lie. But when we fought with the Cave Spirit earlier, we all sensed the presence of the Origin on the Cave Spirit.” The man surnamed Gui spat out word by word.
”In that case, Brother Gui and I have the same judgment.” The complexion on Slender’s face paled for a moment.
”Not bad. Since Fellow Daoist Han didn’t obtain the True Lin Origin. Then with the death of the Cave Spirit, the Origin Existence either dispersed on its own and returned to the earth. Either it still returned to the original True Spirit’s Cave, and only by waiting for the birth of the next Cave Spirit can one obtain this thing again.” The man with the name of Kei looked gloomy and unusual.
”If it’s the first, we naturally won’t have much of a chance anymore. But if it’s the second kind, it’s only a matter of waiting for a few more centuries.” The Crystal Race woman barely squeaked.
”Oh, there is such a thing. Do you two have a way to know which situation it is.” Han Li’s heart stirred as he listened, and with his hands clasped around his arms, he stroked his chin and couldn’t help but ask.
”Of course there is no way. The first is simply untraceable, while the second simply has no way into the ground.” The Crystal Race woman muttered.
When Han Li heard this, his heart was similarly greatly disappointed. After all, that origin power had the potential to help him advance to the Harmonized Body. Now that it was said in such a manner, wouldn’t it mean that even if the True Lin Origin was truly still alive, one would have to wait for hundreds of years more to have any hope of obtaining it.
However, even though this pair of men and women didn’t look like they were lying, he naturally wouldn’t really believe it all.
At that moment, his eyes flashed blue, at the same time, he put out his divine mind, and the recluse together hovered and flew in the vicinity, and began to explore the existence of everything in the vicinity.
As a result, he will be within a few miles of everything are carefully searched after, but not the slightest clue have not found, can only be depressed again and shot back, and re-fall in the other two people beside the disappearance.
See Han Li also this reluctant look, fiber and the man surnamed Gui naturally more convinced of Han Li’s previous words, all three are silent, different colors thinking about their own affairs of the heart.
For this woman of fiber, this trip is naturally a complete failure, the heart of the frustration can be imagined.
The man with the surname Gui was still quite calm, but his gaze flickered uncertainly as he pondered something.
”Hehehe, it looks like this trip was a wasted journey. It’s good that this seat’s parasitic body is that of a Silver Jiao, and it can naturally afford to wait for hundreds of years of light.” The man with the name of Kei seemed to have figured something out and suddenly laughed lowly.
”You are the body of a Silver Jiao, even if you wait for so many years, you can still impact the Saint rank and higher existences. Whereas if I were to wait for hundreds of years, even if I obtained the True Lin Origin, I wouldn’t necessarily have the time to thoroughly refine and use it for cultivation.” Feline, however, had a complicated expression.
”Since you know about this matter, why don’t you simply give up on this, or how about merging with me and becoming one?” Once the man with the surname Kei heard this, he said with a flash of strange light in his eyes.
”Merging with your divine mind is naturally possible. But Your Excellency giving up your divine mind and taking my consciousness as your main focus, I can immediately agree.” Fiber’s eyebrows raised, and her face suddenly sank.
”Hmph, toasting wine without eating it!” The man surnamed Kei heard these words, the fierce color on his face suddenly appeared, two hands clenched down, his body immediately a light blood emanated.
”What, does fellow Daoist Kei think that one person can deal with the combined efforts of Brother Han and I at the same time?” Fiber’s heart was flabbergasted, but a hint of fury surfaced on her pretty face in turn and said.
”Fellow Daoist Han, are you going to intervene in this matter? If you’re willing to turn your head on this and leave, I’ll be sure to thank you heavily when I turn around!” Cold light flashed in the eyes of the man surnamed Kei, and after sweeping over Han Li’s body, he suddenly opened his mouth and said.
