Divine Sense Transforming into a Thousand
After the scholar appeared, he disappeared from everyoneâs sight. Wang Tiangu and the others were stunned for a moment, and all of them wore strange expressions.
Wei Wuya fell silent for a moment before asking, âSect Leader Wang, is this person really the Master Cang Kun of the past? However, this person only has his soul left. Even if he really is the invincible person from the past, thereâs nothing to fear now. Did he tell you about the Spirit Ether Garden?â
When the Ghost Spirit Sectâs Master heard that the spatial tear had only just appeared, his expression relaxed, and he replied to Wei Wuyaâs question with a calm expression, âTo a certain extent, this person is both Master Cang Kun and not Master Cang Kun. However, I did hear about the Spirit Ether Garden from him.â
âWhat do you mean? Thereâs no need to keep us in suspense.â Wei Wuyaâs expression darkened with displeasure.
The Ghost Spirit Sectâs Master unhurriedly said, âBrother Wei misunderstood. The scroll spirit we saw just now was actually the remnant soul of an incarnation of Master Cang Kun. When this incarnation was exploring Devilfall Valley, it was injured by a restriction and its body was destroyed. Thus, Master Cang Kun placed it into this scroll, which was refined from fragments of the Soul Nurturing Wood, to recuperate and recover. However, the true Master Cang Kun already died many years ago. Apart from some memories, this remnant soul has already obtained freedom. There is nothing wrong with calling it another person.â
Wei Wuya was rather surprised to hear this.
Wang Tiangu pursed his lips and smiled bitterly in his heart. It was unknown if he was depressed because he hadnât discovered the secret of the scroll or because he had guessed wrongly again.
Wei Wuya nodded and coldly said, âSo thatâs how it is. It seems that youâve reached an agreement with this remnant soul, which is why it told you about the Spirit Ether Garden. However, that doesnât matter to me. As long as I can enter the Spirit Ether Garden, I wonât care what agreement you have with it. At my age, I only want to enter the Deity Transformation Stage and ascend to the Spirit Realm.â
The Ghost Spirit Sectâs Master smiled and beckoned to a disciple, âBrother Wei is indeed a sensible person. That would be for the best. Alright, since this spatial tear only appeared by chance, letâs set off!â
The Ghost Spirit Sect discipleâs face was somewhat pale, but he wordlessly walked around the spatial tear in front of him.
Wei Wuya slowly walked forward, and the others from the Ghost Spirit Sect followed suit.
The group continued to walk towards the huge altar.
â¦
âWhatâs going on? Your flying squirrel actually lost control!â Standing on a glacier covered in thick ice, Han Li looked up at the blood-red light that appeared in the sky again and said to Violet Spirit beside him with a dark expression.
Not far behind him, there was a huge crack in the ice that was over 200 feet wide. Han Li had just snuck into the inner valley again through this crack.
As he looked around, he saw that the place was covered in ice and snow, and a bone-chilling wind blew past. However, Han Li stood still in his thin green clothes, as if he did not care about the cold wind.
âI donât know. My flying squirrel was fine outside, but as soon as we came out of the crevice, it suddenly went berserk. Fortunately, I put it away early. Otherwise, I donât know what would have happened. Even though itâs in the spirit beast pouch, itâs still extremely berserk.â Violet Spirit frowned in confusion.
Han Li pondered for a moment and suddenly slapped his storage pouch. A small group of Gold Devouring Beetles rushed out from the pouch and turned into a small cloud of beetles in the air. They stopped above Han Liâs head.
Han Li secretly activated his spiritual sense, and the small swarm of insects immediately flew back to the pouch without any signs of losing control.
Han Li stroked his chin and his gaze wavered. However, he immediately patted the other spirit beast pouch and a black light shot out from it. It circled around and landed a few feet in front of Han Li.
The light faded to reveal a small black monkey that was several inches in size. It was none other than the Weeping Soul Beast.
At this moment, it yawned and blinked. It looked at Han Li in a daze as if it had just woken up.
Han Li stared at the beast for a long while before waving his sleeve expressionlessly, and a cloud of azure light swept out.
A short moment later, azure light flashed and the Weeping Soul Beast disappeared.
After a moment of contemplation, Han Li said to Violet Spirit, âSince your flying squirrel has lost control, no matter what the reason is, we can only rely on ourselves to find the Ghost Spirit Sect. Fortunately, weâve entered the inner valley, so we wonât be too far away from them. Iâll use my divine power to search for them and see if I can find any traces of them. Protect me for the time being.â
The Gold Devouring Beetle and the Weeping Soul Beast didnât show any abnormalities in the inner valley, much to his relief. After all, one of them was a wondrous insect while the other was a mutated ferocious beast. Naturally, they were very different from ordinary spirit beasts.
However, Han Li naturally did not know that the Thousand Kilometer Orioles that Marquis Nanlong had prepared could also remain safe and sound in the valley. As for the spirit birds borrowed by the Moulan spell warriors, they were like Violet Spiritâs flying squirrel, in a state of loss of control.
The whole story naturally involved some of the inner valleyâs secrets.
âThen weâll have to rely on Brother Hanâs abilities,â Violet Spirit said as she bit her lip.
Han Li nodded and calmly sat down cross-legged, closing his eyes.
A short moment later, spiritual light flourished from his body, and his entire body was enshrouded in azure light.
Violet Spirit quietly stood at the side. Her clear eyes stared at Han Liâs ordinary face without blinking.
To be honest, Violet Spirit was unsure of her feelings for the man in front of her.
They were not purely friends. At the very least, when she occasionally saw that Han Li was amazed by her beauty, she was secretly delighted and excited.
They were certainly not lovers. Although she and Han Li had gone through trials and tribulations together, up until now, Han Li had never truly revealed his heart to her. Instead, he seemed to have the intention to distance himself from her and had no intention of going any further.
In reality, with Han Liâs current cultivation and status, if he was willing to propose to her, she could not predict whether she would say yes or refuse. When she unintentionally found out from the Drifting Cloud Sectâs woman surnamed Song that Han Li already had a dual cultivation partner named Nangong Wan, she felt even more disappointed, as if something that she had long fancied had been snatched away by someone else.
Violet Spirit looked at Han Liâs face, which was shimmering with green light, and her mind began to wander.
Han Li, who was meditating, naturally did not know what Violet Spirit was thinking. However, he had already released his powerful spiritual sense and quickly searched everything within a radius of fifty kilometers to see if there were any Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators. However, after a while, he did not find anything.
Han Li frowned slightly and did not give up. He spread his spiritual sense even further, covering a radius of nearly 200 kilometers. However, after a while, there was still no aura of other cultivators.
Han Li pondered for a moment and suddenly took out a spirit beast pouch filled with Gold Devouring Beetles from his waist. He casually took it out and made a hand seal. Thousands of Gold Devouring Beetles surged out of the pouch and turned into a cloud of golden beetles.
âGo!â
Han Li opened his eyes and raised his hand, striking the insect cloud with a green spell seal.
The cloud of insects buzzed and scattered, transforming into golden flowers that scattered in all directions.
When Han Li closed his eyes again, spiritual light began to shine from his body. When Violet Spirit saw this, she revealed a trace of shock, not knowing what kind of great divine power Han Li was going to use.
At this moment, Han Li had already used the Great Development Technique to its utmost. He forcefully split his spiritual sense into thousands of avatars. Apart from a few avatars that remained on his body to protect himself, all the avatars quickly caught up to each of the Gold Devouring Beetles and temporarily attached themselves to the insects, spreading their wings and scattering in all directions.
With the help of the Gold Devouring Beetlesâ eyes, he no longer needed to sense any cultivatorâs aura. He directly began to search the area, bit by bit, where the next mark might be.
Of course, there was no lack of spatial rifts. Those which were devoured or trapped in restrictions could not return. However, Han Liâs avatars were invisible and attachments. When he saw that the situation was not good, he readily abandoned the attached Gold Devouring Beetles and returned to his main body. However, even so, more than ten avatars could not escape in time and were trapped or destroyed.
In the face of this situation, Han Li decisively gave up on the connection of these avatars, lest they implicated other avatars.
However, every time he gave up on a soul fragment, Han Liâs face could not help but turn paler.
Fortunately, his spiritual sense was extremely powerful, so the loss of those soul fragments was completely negligible. After a short moment, his expression returned to normal.
Relying on the thousands of Gold Devouring Beetles that filled the sky, Han Li finally found a clue after a long time and discovered the route of the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators.
He immediately used his spiritual sense to urge all of his avatars, and the thousands of Gold Devouring Beetles immediately turned around and flew back.
When the last Gold Devouring Beetle entered the bag, Han Li smiled coldly and opened his eyes.
âLetâs go! Weâve found their tracks.â
With that said, Han Li immediately stood up and shot into the sky as a streak of azure light. When Violet Spirit saw this, she happily followed after him as a streak of light.
Not long after, Han Li and Violet Spirit appeared above a pile of rocks.
Han Li stared at the empty pit with a strange expression.
âLooks like this is the location of the next mark. If I remember correctly, there are two more marks to find the location of the Spirit Kindle Fruit. The next location is very easy to find. Itâs the perfect opportunity for us to catch up to the Ghost Spirit Sect,â Han Li said calmly. He waved his sleeve, and a ball of white light shot out from it, landing tens of feet in front of Han Li. It was the Wind Riding Chariot.
âGo to this chariot and increase our speed to catch up to them! Your speed is too slow. Only by increasing our speed by several times will you be able to catch up to them,â Han Li instructed Violet Spirit in an unquestionable manner.
âSpeed up by several times? There are countless spatial tears in the inner valley. Isnât that too dangerous?â Violet Spirit was alarmed as her expression changed.
