Chapter 1913 – Zhen Demon Lock and Che Riding Gong
”That’s fair enough, just feel free to ask, fellow Daoist.” Han Li said without thinking after a brief contemplation, but his tone changed slightly.
This person was obviously deeply trapped in this Zhenmu Lock and unable to leave, so he naturally agreed with a full mouth.
”Good, I want to know first from whom you got the Demon Suppressing Lock?” The green-robed old man was overjoyed at his words and didn’t hesitate to ask the question he was most concerned about.
”Obtained it from a few Noble Exalted?” Han Li had anticipated this and immediately replied.
”A few Noble Exalted, could it be that villain Bloodlight’s men? But how could he feel comfortable handing this item over to someone else’s hands.” The old man’s gaze flickered as he murmured thoughtfully.
”I’ve already answered a question, so could Your Excellency tell us your name first!” Han Li inquired as well, regardless of the old man’s doubts.
”This seat, Che Riding Gong! How did you meet our Sacred Race Exalted One when you’re of a human body? Could it be that you’re in our Sacred Realm right now?” The old man returned briefly and flew out a second question.
”Che Riding Gong, it’s true that this name has never been heard of before. It is now time for your Ancient Demon Realm to once again infiltrate our Spirit Realm, so what is so strange about my meeting your venerable clan.” Han Li returned with a faint smile.
”What, it’s the day of the Holy Sacrifice! I can’t believe I’ve been trapped for so many years. How long has it been since the Holy Sacrifice began now? If it’s been a period of time since the beginning, Bloodlight that villain’s true body couldn’t immediately descend to the human realm, could that be why this Demon Suppressor Lock left his side!” The old man was first startled, and then his brows furrowed.
”This seems to be the next problem!” Han Li’s face changed slightly when he heard the words “Holy Sacrifice”, but he immediately returned to his normal self and said.
”Alright, you can ask another question.” Upon hearing this, the green-robed old man’s face once again surged with anger, but then thought of something all of a sudden, forcibly suppressing his huffing and puffing, he said.
”My next question is simple, I would like to know if senior is one of the Ancient Demon Realm’s Saint Ancestors?” Han Li asked gruffly.
”Since you’ve already guessed it, why do you need to ask more. Not only is Old Man a Saint Ancestor of the Sacred Realm, but he is also one of the Saint Ancestors of the Sacred Realm that has existed for the longest time! There are only a handful of three or four people in the entire Sacred Realm who can compare their longevity to that of the old man.” The green-robed old man spoke in a cold voice.
”For there to be such a thing, I am disrespectful.” Han Li was stunned, but immediately laughed lightly again.
From the other party’s tone of voice, as well as the amazing divine abilities he had previously displayed, he wasn’t too surprised by this reply.
”What are you laughing at, could it be that you find it somewhat amusing that the old man, as a Saint Ancestor, has lived such a long empty life against being trapped here?” Che Riding Gong’s face sank as he said with a flash of fierce light in his eyes.
”How could I think so. Regardless of how Your Excellency’s aptitude is not comparable to that of a junior, how could there be an intention to make fun of it.” The smile on Han Li’s face was withdrawn, and he returned with a seemingly calm reply.
But naturally, he secretly muttered in his heart that this old devil was truly fickle in nature, and that he needed to play a few more points of caution.
”You know that the old man is a Holy Ancestor of the Holy Realm, and you still have this calm demeanor, could it be that you really think that the old man won’t swallow this wisp of your divine thought incarnation!” Che Riding Gong said hideously.
”If senior was willing to do it, he would have done it long ago, how would he wait until now.” Han Li had a bland demeanor.
”You’re quite clever. If you weren’t trapped in this place, I would have naturally killed you with a single grab when I saw a mere human cultivator like you in the past. Alright, answer the question I asked earlier. Has the Holy Sacrifice just begun not long ago, and have those Saint Ancestors not yet descended their true bodies?” Che Riding Gong finally calmed down again and said with a hum.
”The Devil’s Tribulation has indeed just begun not long ago, and those Saint Ancestors wanting to descend into their true bodies is simply impossible right now.” Han Li didn’t have any intention of hiding anything about this and honestly returned.
”Indeed!” When Che Riding Gong heard this, a flash of excitement flickered across his face, and he immediately fell back into deep thought, seemingly pondering over something.
”Can you tell us about the use of this Demon Suppressor Lock?” Han Li turned a blind eye to the old man’s situation and asked the next question.
”This thing, the Demon Suppressor Lock, is something that you humanoids simply cannot drive, and you’re wasting your efforts by asking this question.” The old man was stunned at his words, and after sweeping Han Li a glance, he suddenly revealed a hint of sarcasm as he said.
”Whether or not it is truly useless to me, I will make my own judgment.” Han Li blandly persisted in asking.
”Since you want to know so badly, there’s no harm in telling you. This Demon Suppressor Lock is actually a yet-to-be-evolved Xuan Heavenly Treasure that secretly contains the chaotic yin and yang qi. Not only does it form a space of its own, but there is also a great master of the Holy Realm who is proficient in the way of formations, who has latterly inscribed thirteen layers of ancient prohibitions on it. Once a person is trapped in it, unless the trapped person is really capable of divine power to break the Chaos two gas, otherwise even if someone will use external forces to break the thirteen layers of prohibitions, but also no help at all. And this chaos two gas is how powerful things, if this treasure is really evolved into the Xuan Tian things, even if the heavenly immortals are trapped into it, if there is no corresponding means also helpless. However, even if this half-finished model in front of us, trapping Mahayana and Saint Ancestor existences such as ours is definitely more than enough.” The old man said coldly.
”An unfinished Xuan Heavenly Treasure!” Even though Han Li had been calm as water earlier, he couldn’t help but change his face drastically upon hearing these words.
Naturally, there were few people who understood the great power of a Xuan Heaven’s Treasure better than he, a person who possessed a Xuan Heaven’s Treasure himself. Even if it was only a half-finished product that had yet to be completed, it was enough to make his heart thump up.
”Hehehe, it’s a pity that this Demon Suppressing Lock was born in my Sacred Realm, unless my Ancient Demon Clan’s Sacred Ancestor who can communicate with the power of the Sacred Realm’s Laws of Heaven and Earth exists, and is able to barely drive it for a moment or two, or else even if outsiders get hold of this treasure, they won’t be able to catalyze it for a single moment. It can only be treated as a dead object! If it wasn’t for the fact that you have a way to let your divine thoughts penetrate deep into the forbidden system, and the old me also happened to have just used my Yuan Shen to break through to this layer with great effort, and cast a spell to stop you. As soon as this divine thought incarnation of yours reaches the depths of the box, I’m afraid that it will immediately be turned into nothing by the Chaotic Two Qi, and there won’t be any gains at all.” Che Riding Gong said blandly.
”I see, only an existence that can communicate with the power of heaven and earth in the Ancient Demon Realm can use this treasure!” Han Li muttered with a thoughtful look.
”You shouldn’t presume on this matter. Even if you cultivate a technique of our Saint Clan and can catalyze some True Devil Qi, unless you cultivate your Devil Technique to the point of a Saint Ancestor, there’s simply no way to talk about being able to communicate with the power of the Sacred Realm’s heaven and earth. If you really cultivate your demonic power to this point, and are unable to tolerate the Spirit Realm yourself, you will be forced to break through the air and fly to our Sacred Realm, becoming a member of our Sacred Realm now.” As if he could see something, Che Riding Gong said with great meaning.
The muscles on Han Li’s face twitched for a moment before he slowly said after a long time, “According to what Che Daolong said, this item really doesn’t have an ounce of use for me.”
”Indeed, that’s why I said that there’s not even the slightest bit of significance for you to ask about the use of this treasure. Moreover, since this treasure has not yet evolved to completion, it also has another fatal limitation that makes this item quite a bit of a chicken rib even amongst us Saint Ancestors.” The green-robed old man said with another wry smile.
”What restriction?” Han Li frowned and subconsciously asked.
”Haha, that’s something that the old man won’t be able to say.” Che Riding Gong, however, refused flatly with a laugh.
”If Fellow Daoist Che is unwilling to speak, then forget it.” Han Li’s face sank slightly, but he didn’t directly reveal a look of dissatisfaction.
The old man hemmed and hawed, no longer continuing this topic, but instead inquired about something new after a slight pause.
”There is one more thing the old man would like to know, and I hope you answer it properly. Do you know if there can be ‘Yin Yang Underworld Pool’ or ‘Yellow Springs Earth Fire’ in the nearby region, these two kinds of spiritual land evolved by heaven and earth!” Che Riding Gong asked with a solemn expression.
”Yin-Yang Underworld Pool, Yellow Spring Earth Fire? Why does Your Excellency have this question?” Han Li’s expression twitched, and instead of answering directly between the old man, he countered with a cautious rhetorical question.
”You still have a lot of questions, you haven’t answered this seat’s question first!” The green-robed old man’s complexion became not so good all of a sudden, and said with an icy cold word by word.
”Then let’s assume that this question, is the next question in the next.” Han Li replied without the slightest hint of color on his face.
After the old man heard Han Li’s answer, the face of anger once again surfaced, the eyes of the silver aura after a flow, actually became a moment to the piercing dazzling up.
”It seems that Your Excellency is wrong again, what I have here is just an insignificant avatar.” Han Li, however, reminded without a care in the world.
”Hmph, if your main body was truly in front of you, how would you have the qualifications to bargain with this seat!” Che Riding Gong snorted coldly, and with a convergence of silver aura in his eyes, he once again forcefully suppressed his anger and said.
Han Li smiled faintly, but no longer interfaced anything.
And the green-robed old man hesitated for a moment more before reluctantly explaining helplessly, “These two places are the only places where the Demon Suppressor Lock can be sacrificed again, and if this treasure is placed inside, and then sacrificed with a Saint Clan secret technique, it can be extracted from it to extract some of the Chaotic Two Qi. We Saint Ancestors have countless benefits, whether we use Chaos Two Qi to refine weapons or absorb it for our own use. And since the Holy Realm is filled with True Demon Qi, it is only in the Spirit Realm that one can find these two kinds of premises. If not for that, this Demon Suppressing Lock would never have left the Bloodlight villain’s side by a single millimeter, much less accidentally fall into the hands of a human cultivator like you.”
”Putting the Demon Suppressor Lock into these two places will allow you to extract Chaotic Qi from it, but is that true?” Han Li was greatly surprised after hearing this.
There were also some records about the Chaotic Yin and Yang Qi in some ancient texts, and it did indeed have various incredible effects, causing him to be pleasantly surprised!
”Why would the old man need to deceive you on this. Since you were able to condense a divine idea to incarnate out, I think you are also an existence at the stage of merging. If you can absorb such a tiny bit of Chaotic Qi, you might have a chance to advance to the Mahayana realm in the future! If not, it would also allow you to raise your cultivation by one realm out of nowhere. If you use the Chaos Qi to sacrifice treasures, then ordinary treasures can immediately become a spiritual treasure with great magical powers!” Che Riding Gong said indifferently.
