Chapter 60 – Testing the Poison
Yu Zitong was confident in these words of his, he didn’t believe that there could be anyone who could resist the lure of becoming immortal and immortality.
Thinking about it, Dr. Mo also hated him to the bone, but under the same words, he still cooperated honestly. I believe that if I give this person a little bit of sweetness, he will definitely obediently give in.
But Yu Zitong was disappointed, after listening to his words of temptation, Han Li did not show an expression of excitement, but a calm face, as if these words did not blow up the slightest ripple in the other party’s heart.
”The matter of cooperation will be something I will consider in the future, but right now there is still a question that I hope you can answer one or two.” Han Li stared at the ball of light with clear eyes and said softly.
”After answering this question of yours, you’ll be willing to cooperate?”
”It depends on your answer, whether it will satisfy me or not.”
”Fine, you ask!” Yu Zitong agreed baldly, and it seemed that he had a thorough understanding of the principle of “one has to bow one’s head under the roof.”
Han Li didn’t open his mouth right away, but raised his head and looked at the roof in deep thought for a while, as if considering what to say to make it more appropriate.
Yu Zitong was stunned by the other party’s solemn appearance and kept muttering in his heart, not knowing what Han Li would mention that would give him a headache.
”I want to know, what adverse consequences will I experience after I counter-consume part of Dr. Mo and your Yuan Shen? Why is my mind a bit swollen and painful, and I feel like there’s a lot more stuff, but I can’t look through it, so there’s nothing wrong, right?” Han Li finally asked the question he had been worrying about since he woke up.
Once Yu Zitong heard that the other party was originally worried about this small problem, his heart immediately relaxed and his voice spoke much lighter, “Heh! Original is this matter. Older brother, you are overly concerned, completely do not need to put on the heart. You know, these things that are stuffed into your mind will slowly dissipate on their own within a year or two, there is absolutely no need for you to worry about it.”
”So, I’m completely doing nothing by devouring these things, and I can’t retain them at all? I don’t quite believe that.” Han Li glanced at the other party with a skeptical gaze, faintly revealing distrust.
”To say that not a single bit can be left behind is not entirely true. But what can be left behind is indeed not much.” Yu Zitong hurriedly spoke out to explain it, fearing that the other party would misunderstand something.
”The memories, experiences, and emotions contained therein are things that cannot be touched at all, and if they are absorbed, they will turn into idiots and split personalities if they are light, or they will die with their brains bursting from the spiritual surge. You should know that the spirit is the most delicate thing, which can be fused with other things casually. Devouring other people’s Yuan Shen and temporarily shelving it in the mind, this is possible, but to turn it into your own thing, that’s a delusion. Otherwise a casual takeover, can obtain the other party’s experience, memory, gong method, that is not the world chaos, who will still honestly go to practice, to experience what realm, mind, as long as a takeover, that is not all there. In the devoured Yuan Shen, the only thing that can be utilized is a little bit of the contained origin power, this kind of thing can slightly strengthen one’s Yuan Shen, but it’s just a little bit, because this kind of thing drains away the fastest, without a few days it will be drained away from the devoured Yuan Shen, unable to be utilized again.”
Han Li listened to Yu Zitong’s explanation while letting go of the last trace of attachment in his heart.
He could hear that the other party was not lying, and at this time, Yu Zitong was afraid that he was thinking of cooperating with him as if he were Dr. Mo, so naturally, he would not deceive him on this issue that would come to light after a slight test of time.
After Yu Zitong finished explaining the last sentence, seeing Han Li nod his head, seemingly believing what he said, his heart couldn’t help but rejoice, and the ball of light that his Yuan Shen had transformed into also seemed to brighten up a few more points, as he asked eagerly, “Elder brother Han, it seems to be very satisfied with my explanations, so shouldn’t the following be a time to discuss the cooperation between us?”
”Of course, to be able to cooperate with an Immortal Cultivator, that is a beautiful thing I couldn’t wait to do!” Han Li suddenly spread his face and smiled, revealing white teeth that shone brightly, appearing incomparably sincere.
”Really?” Yu Zitong became excited, not expecting that the other party would already agree before he could persuade him, and hurriedly opened his mouth to confirm.
”Of course!” Han Li replied quickly and crisply.
He then smiled as he pulled out something from within his arms and said to Yu Zitong in a cordial tone, “Since we’re already partners, before discussing the specifics, Your Excellency won’t refuse me and cooperate in a small experiment, right?”
”Experiment?” Yu Zitong froze, he looked at the cylinder in the other party’s hand and felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and a minute of unsettling omen came to his heart.
”Not bad, the poison trial test.” Before Han Li’s words fell, the thumb holding the cylinder moved, and then a blackish liquid spewed out from it, carrying an unpleasant putrid odor as it headed straight for the opposite target.
”Ah!”
From the mass of light came Yu Zitong’s miserable scream, his Yuan Shen was doused by the black liquid, the green light on it suddenly dimmed a lot, it looked like he had been traumatized this time.
”You, you actually poisoned me and sneak attacked me?” Yu Zitong screamed hoarsely, as if he still couldn’t accept what had just happened.
Han Li ignored the other party’s rage as he reached out and grabbed the belt buckle above his abdomen, and with a swish, he pulled out a shiny sword from the belt compartment.
This sword has a cut finger so wide, the length of about one and a half feet, the whole body is flexible and incomparable, is a rare “jade belt short sword”.
This item was the last short sword that Han Li spent a lot of money to have the blacksmith create, and it was also the most expensive one, but he wasn’t good at this type of weapon, so he hadn’t been able to take it out to use it, and he didn’t think that he would use it now.
As Han Li held this sharp weapon that he had been hiding on his body but almost didn’t have the chance to appear, his face became incomparably gloomy, and half of his original smile disappeared.
He glanced at the Yuan Shen, which was still trembling slightly, with abhorrent eyes, and without saying a word, he took a flying step forward and slashed at the light mass, completely using the soft sword as if it were a cleaver.
