104: True Ancestor Kunpeng's Feather Transformation Technique

One person, one Demon Corpse, a desperate chase!

A single sword strike severely wounded the Demon Corpse.

Han Li naturally wouldn't let go of this excellent Opportunity.

Strike while the iron is hot, take his life while he is down.

In an instant, Han Li pursued the Demon Corpse deep into a valley.

“Whoosh—!”

Just as the Demon Corpse stopped, a terrifying sword strike came from behind him.

“Puchi—!” A single sword strike severed one of the Demon Corpse's arms, and green liquid gushed out.

“Roar—!”

The Demon Corpse let out a roar, opened his mouth, and spat out a dense corpse Qi that shot out like an arrow.

Han Li cut out with his sword, pulverizing the corpse Qi.

The next moment, he once again activated the Taiqing Shadowless Swordplay.

Fusing his Sword Intent, the Supreme sword strike was unleashed again.

It locked onto the Demon Corpse, leaving him no escape!

“True Ancestor, save me!” Fear appeared in the Demon Corpse's eyes as he cried out for help.

However, it was too late. Han Li’s sword strike directly severed the Demon Corpse's head.

With one sword strike, a crack several feet deep was cut into the earth.

The Demon Corpse was completely dead.

A dense mass of blood Qi surged into his body, and the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed instantly sealed it.

Looking at the dead Demon Corpse, Han Li was about to act, but suddenly, a strong sense of danger erupted.

“Not good!”

Han Li’s scalp tingled, and he instinctively activated Divine Travel Eight Desolations.

However, a vast power swept over, freezing the surrounding air. His body seemed to be confined by an invisible force.

Deep in the valley, a faint light invaded. Han Li’s pupils contracted. He fully mobilized his True Qi, broke through the confinement, and unleashed a sword strike, but it was instantly swallowed by the faint light.

Before Han Li could strike again, the faint light swept over his body, an extreme chill erupted, and a feeling of dizziness assailed him. The next moment, his figure vanished as if into thin air, disappearing into the valley.

In the silent valley, only the dead Demon Corpse and the shocking sword marks and cracks remained... A dim light appeared in his eyes.

Han Li shook his head and instantly sobered up.

Before him was a huge underground space, like an underground grotto.

The top of the grotto emitted a dim light.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Han Li’s mind instantly tensed.

He instantly remembered what had just happened.

An irresistible pressure swept over. Just the Aura alone froze the air and suppressed him. Then, a faint light appeared.

And then, he woke up and found himself in this underground grotto.

“That Demon Corpse called out to the True Ancestor before he died... Could it be that True Ancestor made a move?”

A thought popped into Han Li’s mind.

But in the Heaven Severing Mountain Range, there didn't seem to be any legends of a True Ancestor, right?

Could it be that there was a terrifying existence unknown to others in the Heaven Severing Mountain Range?

Han Li’s heart trembled. Looking at the underground grotto before him, his gaze swept around.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Han Li looked into the depths of the grotto, and a golden lotus platform appeared in his eyes.

This golden lotus platform seemed to be like the lotus platform of a Buddhist Bodhisattva.

Looking at the golden lotus platform, Han Li seemed to feel much calmer.

He scanned the other parts of the underground grotto, but besides the golden lotus platform, he didn't see anything special.

Han Li stood up, and his figure moved, instantly disappearing from his original spot. Soon, he arrived within three zhang of the golden lotus platform.

And at this moment, in the center of the golden lotus platform, a faint light bloomed. The next moment, a figure appeared within the faint light.

It was a white-haired old man, his face deeply lined with wrinkles.

His body seemed to be between reality and illusion, like a Soul body.

And the moment the white-haired old man appeared, a golden light also appeared on the golden lotus platform, enveloping the lotus platform like some kind of Formation.

Within the golden light, Han Li could vaguely see special characters.

It was a “swastika” character!

Han Li’s nerves instantly tensed.

At this moment, the white-haired old man on the lotus platform looked at Han Li.

“Your Physical Body is not bad, quite formidable. It seems you must have Cultivated some top-tier horizontal martial arts...”

A hoarse voice came, and the white-haired old man spoke.

Although there was a three-zhang distance, Han Li could feel an incomparably terrifying Aura.

And the golden lotus platform emitted an even more terrifying Aura.

“Senior, who are you? Why did you bring me here?”

Han Li spoke.

According to his guess, his appearance in this underground grotto should be due to the white-haired old man in the golden lotus platform.

Perhaps this white-haired old man was the True Ancestor mentioned by the Demon Corpse!

And this golden lotus platform, it seemed, should be a terrifying Buddhist Formation, imprisoning this white-haired old man.

Of course, this was just his guess.

“You killed my chess piece, so why do you think I brought you here?” The hoarse voice sounded again. The white-haired old man looked at Han Li, his tone calm, but it contained an unparalleled majesty.

Han Li felt his spirit as heavy as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him.

The Demon Corpse of an Intermediate Demon King was this white-haired old man's chess piece!

This sentence made Han Li’s heart tremble.

What kind of existence could make an Intermediate Demon King-level Demon Corpse a chess piece?

Who exactly was this “True Ancestor”?

Was he also a Demon Corpse?

It didn't seem to have anything to do with a Demon Corpse.

“Don't be afraid. If I wanted to kill you, you would have died just now.” The white-haired old man's voice sounded again.

Hearing this, Han Li felt no joy, his heart sinking.

“Senior, what exactly do you want to do by bringing me here?” Han Li asked, looking at the True Ancestor on the golden lotus platform.

“Make a deal!”

The white-haired old man said.

A deal?

Han Li’s eyes narrowed, his heart growing heavier.

Was he going to be treated as a chess piece?!

“Don't think about it. If you don't agree to me, you won't be able to leave here.” The white-haired old man's voice came again.

Hearing this, Han Li looked around the grotto.

“Don't believe me? Then you might as well try.” The white-haired old man said indifferently.

Han Li remained silent. After a long while, a powerful True Qi erupted from his body. At the same time, a Dragon roar sounded.

Eight Heavenly Dragons roared, and divine light condensed.

“Roar—!”

The sound of the Dragon roar shook the grotto. Han Li punched out, transforming into a golden seal that slammed towards the top of the grotto.

At this moment, a golden “swastika” rune materialized in the sky above the grotto. The golden seal struck, but it couldn't shake it in the slightest and was directly absorbed.

!!!

Seeing this scene, Han Li’s heart instantly sank to the bottom.

He didn't continue to attack.

With that single blow, he already understood that this underground grotto was covered by a Formation.

His strength was not enough to break the Formation; it wasn't just a little bit off.

“Your martial arts are quite good. It seems your talent is also extraordinary, very good.” The white-haired old man's voice sounded, and a brilliant smile appeared on his ancient face.

Han Li remained silent, watching the gradually disappearing rune. The next moment, a golden sword talisman appeared in his palm.

It was the talisman the Sect Leader had given him back then.

“Buzz—!”

Han Li instantly activated the talisman. The next moment, a terrifying golden light rose.

“Hmm?”

On the golden lotus platform, the white-haired old man's gaze narrowed slightly.

The golden light transformed into a Divine Sword that appeared before Han Li.

“Go!”

Han Li let out a low cry, and the golden Divine Sword immediately shot out, slamming towards the top of the grotto.

“Buzz—!”

The disappeared “swastika” rune reappeared, and a powerful light bloomed.

“Amitabha!”

A Buddhist chant came from within the “swastika” rune. Within the golden Buddhist light, an invisible Buddha materialized.

“Boundless Dharma!”

A majestic voice sounded. The next moment, the golden sword was shattered and disintegrated on the spot.

“Even the Sect Leader's talisman can't break it...”

Seeing this scene, Han Li’s heart completely sank to the bottom.

At this moment, the materialized Buddha phantom also disappeared, and everything returned to calm.

Han Li’s face was ashen.

The Sect Leader's talisman contained the power of a God Realm strike, yet it still couldn't break this damned Buddhist Formation.

“Senior, what exactly do you want?” Han Li looked at the white-haired old man, his ashen face also returning to normal.

He had to face reality.

Since he couldn't resist, he could only accept the deal; he had no other choice.

“I said, make a deal!” The white-haired old man said indifferently.

“What deal?”

Han Li asked.

“Unseal my Physical Body and bring my Physical Body here.” The white-haired old man said indifferently.

“?”

Hearing this, Han Li was a little confused.

Unseal the Physical Body?

What did that mean?

Could it be that the one before him was a fake?

“Senior, could you explain more clearly? Junior doesn't understand.” Han Li said.

The white-haired old man said indifferently: “What you see now is my Primordial Spirit. My Physical Body is in the Heavenly Abyss. As long as you go to the Heavenly Abyss, unseal my Physical Body, and bring it here, I will give you a great Opportunity.”

Hearing these words, Han Li’s heart became clear.

“Senior, where is this Heavenly Abyss?” Han Li asked.

“In the Central Continent.” The white-haired old man said.

“Cen... Central Continent?”

Han Li’s eyes widened.

Central Continent, good heavens, what kind of distance was that?

It was a distance of one hundred and eight thousand li multiplied by one hundred and eight thousand li!

“You have no choice. Otherwise, you will stay here forever.” Looking at Han Li, the white-haired old man said indifferently.

Han Li’s heart twitched.

This was a blatant threat!

But at the moment, he really seemed to have no other choice.

Central Continent, Heavenly Abyss... Just from the name, this definitely wasn't a good place.

It was probably a Forbidden Ground.

“Senior, this is the Southern Continent. It's more than tens of thousands of li away from the Central Continent. I'm afraid Junior won't be able to complete it in a short time.” Han Li said.

“I can give you one hundred years. You just need to complete it within one hundred years.” The white-haired old man said indifferently.

One hundred years... “This is a long time, so it seems I can only agree for now.” A thought flashed through Han Li’s mind.

“Senior, I agree.”

“Very good, only the wise adapt to circumstances.” A satisfied smile appeared in the white-haired old man's eyes. Immediately, he raised his hand, and a mass of bloody light diffused out.

It passed through the golden lotus platform Formation, transforming into a square piece of paper that appeared before him.

“This is a mental contract. Drip a drop of fresh blood on it.”

Han Li looked at the contract before him and then at the old man on the golden lotus platform.

“Don't worry, if you complete it within one hundred years, the contract will automatically dissipate and will have no effect.” The white-haired old man said indifferently.

Han Li looked at the blood Qi, clenched his fists, and finally, he reluctantly loosened them, forced out a drop of fresh blood, and dripped it onto the contract before him.

“Buzz—!”

The fresh blood merged into the contract, and the contract before him instantly revealed a mark that instantly entered Han Li’s glabella.

And at this moment, deep in his mind, the dormant Heaven and Earth Demon Seed suddenly stirred, and the mark that had just entered his glabella was instantly swallowed by the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed.

"Hm?"

Han Li was stunned.

The Heaven and Earth Demon Seed had this ability?

It directly swallowed the spiritual mark, so that meant this spiritual contract had no restraint on him?

Han Li's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface.

He couldn't show it, otherwise, if any clues were noticed, it would be over.

Calm down!

Calm down!

He steadied his mind, and at this moment, the white-haired elder's face broke into a brilliant smile.

Immediately, he spread his hand, and a golden token floated out.

"This token, as long as you step into the Abyss, the token will guide you, and then you can find this True Ancestor's Physical Body, and the token can automatically break the Physical Body's confinement; you only need to bring it here."

The white-haired elder's voice resounded.

Han Li looked at the token in his hand and nodded.

"Junior understands."

"There's one more thing this True Ancestor needs to remind you: you must not reveal this matter, otherwise, the spiritual contract will backlash, and your Soul will be Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, understand?" the white-haired elder said indifferently.

"Junior understands."

"Additionally, there are many dangers in the Abyss; you'd best go out and improve your strength, preferably Breakthrough to the Innate Realm before going," the white-haired elder said indifferently.

Han Li's eyes darted around, and he said, "Senior, Breakthrough to the Innate Realm requires undergoing a Heavenly Tribulation. Can Senior bestow upon me some treasures and Divine Pills? That way, I can Breakthrough faster and complete Senior's transaction sooner."

"Your calculations are quite loud," the white-haired elder said, looking at him.

Han Li was earnest: "Senior, what are you saying? Junior is also doing this for the transaction; primarily, it's for Senior's consideration."

"This True Ancestor has no treasures or Divine Pills, but I can give you a special martial arts," the white-haired elder said.

"Special martial arts?"

"That works too," Han Li nodded.

"Buzz—!"

As soon as his voice fell, a flash of light appeared in the air, and a bronze tablet floated out, landing in Han Li's hand.

The bronze tablet was square, about the size of two palms, covered with dense characters.

Han Li's gaze swept over it, and several prominent characters appeared in his eyes.

Kun Peng Transformation Art!

Before Han Li could examine it closely, the white-haired elder's voice resounded again.

"Cultivating this Heaven-Grade Medium Grade martial arts can greatly enhance your strength. Remember this True Ancestor's words: bring the Physical Body, and you will have an even greater Opportunity."

The voice entered his ears, and Han Li looked at the bronze tablet in his hand, his heart shaking.

He casually gave him a Heaven-Grade Medium Grade martial arts.

Good heavens, what kind of existence was this True Ancestor?

"Junior remembers."

Coming back to his senses, Han Li didn't overthink it and bowed respectfully.

"No more idle talk, this True Ancestor will send you out of here!"

The white-haired elder spoke, and in the next instant, he moved one hand, a dark light bloomed, breaking through the golden lotus barrier, instantly enveloping Han Li's body.

"Buzz—!"

The dark light swept over his entire body, and a dizzying sensation came over him. The next second, his figure disappeared into thecave.

Watching Han Li leave, the white-haired elder's Primordial Spirit on the golden lotus platform swayed, but quickly stabilized.

"This chess piece, I hope it succeeds..."

Muttering to himself, the white-haired elder then closed his eyes.

— —

Deep in a valley in the Heaven Severing Mountain Range, the air suddenly twisted, a crack opened, and a figure fell from the spatial rift.

"I'm out!"

Looking at the valley before him, Han Li's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

His gaze swept across the valley, but he couldn't sense anything special.

It seemed there was nothing particularly different.

After a quick glance, Han Li looked at the bronze tablet in his hand again, put it into his cosmos ring, and with a flash of his figure, Han Li quickly disappeared from here.

He sped along, and in less than a moment, Han Li had left the Heaven Severing Mountain Range.

Stepping out of the Heaven Severing Mountain Range, the tension in Han Li's heart finally eased a little.

Looking back at the vast, cloud-shrouded Heaven Severing Mountain Range, Han Li's gaze was solemn.

He had never expected this turn of events.

Within the Heaven Severing Mountain Range, such a terrifying existence was actually suppressed.

Facing this True Ancestor, Han Li had no power to resist.

This was the first time he had felt so powerless since cultivating to the Innate Realm.

It was also the first time he had been forced to bow his head.

"Fortunately, the Demon Seed can destroy spiritual marks, otherwise, I would truly be constrained..."

Han Li looked at the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed in his mind.

The purple Demon Seed showed no change deep within his mind.

Having just signed the spiritual contract, Han Li hadn't expected the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed to be able to destroy the spiritual mark of the spiritual contract.

This was something he hadn't anticipated.

However, for him, this was naturally a good thing.

Without the restraint of the spiritual contract, he was still a free man.

He had escaped death!

However, Han Li didn't want to experience this kind of thing a second time.

The feeling of being controlled and forced to bow his head was like a huge mountain pressing down on him.

"Swoosh—!"

Taking a step, Han Li's figure instantly disappeared from his original spot.

About an incense stick's worth of time later, he arrived in Chang County, over a hundred miles away.

Choosing an inn to stay, Han Li entered his room and took out the golden token.

After inspecting it carefully, he couldn't see anything special about the golden token.

However, Han Li didn't discard it; he sealed it in a box and placed it in his cosmos ring.

As for whether he would help this True Ancestor find his Physical Body, that depended on his mood later.

Anyway, without the restraint of the spiritual contract, he naturally wasn't worried about any backlash.

Suppressing his thoughts, he closed his eyes, and Han Li instantly released the Qi and blood sealed within the Demon Seed.

"Thump—"

The Demon Seed pulsed, and a vast amount of Qi and blood instantly surged into his body. The Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art circulated, and Han Li absorbed this immense Qi and blood with all his might.

Within his flesh, a Dragon Elephant Embryo rapidly grew stronger, and a powerful light of Qi and blood bloomed, causing the temperature of the entire room to suddenly rise by several degrees... After a long while, Han Li finally opened his eyes.

With the help of this wave of Qi and blood, Han Li successfully Cultivated the sixteenth Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryo and even condensed the seventeenth Dragon Elephant Embryo in one go.

His strength surged by ten thousand jun.

He broke through to 170,000 jun of strength, approaching 180,000 jun of strength.

"Hoo... !"

Exhaling a mouthful of turbid Qi, Han Li opened his eyes, his Qi and blood flowing like a surging river.

After stabilizing his Aura, Han Li then took out the bronze tablet.

Kun Peng Transformation Art.

A Heaven-Grade Medium Grade martial arts, this was the strongest martial arts Han Li had encountered so far.

On the bronze tablet, dense, minuscule characters were engraved.

Han Li read it very carefully.

He quickly became immersed in it... Late at night, several hours passed before Han Li finally woke up.

The Kun Peng Transformation Art, this martial arts was extremely special.

It was a special martial arts that integrated extreme speed and attack.

Practicing this art, by condensing Kunpeng feathers, one's speed could reach an unimaginable, ultimate Peak.

It was a life-saving ultimate skill.

It was far from comparable to something like Divine Travel Eight Desolations.

With a single flap of its wings, it could soar ninety thousand li into the sky!

Ninety thousand li in an instant, what kind of concept was that?

It was no weaker than a super teleportation array, almost like spatial movement.

Reaching this level, indeed, traversing the Five Continents, or even dominating the human world, would not be an issue.

However, this also required profound cultivation support.

It wasn't that you could directly soar ninety thousand li just by Cultivating it.

For the Kun Peng Transformation Art to achieve extreme speed, besides one's own cultivation, there was another rigid requirement: a powerful Physical Body.

Otherwise, ninety thousand li in an instant, which was equivalent to spatial travel, if the Physical Body couldn't withstand the power of space, it would be torn apart by the spatial power.

The stronger the Physical Body, the faster the speed.

Ninety thousand li in an instant was not the limit!

At the same time, it could also unleash attacks.

Cultivating Kunpeng feathers, with a single flap of its wings, could draw upon the power of Heaven and Earth to attack, and its power was also extremely formidable.

The Kun Peng Transformation Art was even more powerful than he had imagined.

"This True Ancestor could see through my Physical Body; I'm afraid that imparting this martial arts was also intentional..." Han Li narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing like lightning.

But even so, it didn't matter.

He probably just wanted him to try harder to find the Physical Body.

However, without the spiritual contract, he was now completely unrestrained.

He could do as he pleased.

Of course, this True Ancestor probably wouldn't have thought that he had the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed, so the so-called spiritual mark would be completely unaffected.

"All in all, it's also an Opportunity... I still have to thank this True Ancestor..."

Looking at the Kun Peng Transformation Art in his hand, Han Li's face showed a smile.

Fortune is intertwined with disaster!

Fortune and misfortune are but a single thought away!

"If I succeed in Cultivation in the future and can reach a level where I can suppress him, it's not impossible to help..."

Han Li's eyes flashed, and then he took out a Comprehension Pill, swallowed it, and instantly began to Cultivate this Supreme martial arts... Dawn broke.

The silent Chang County returned to its bustling scene.

In the inn room, on the bed, Han Li opened his eyes.

With a thought, he opened his panel.

Kun Peng Transformation Art (1%)

"Although it's quite difficult, it can be considered an introduction." Looking at the panel in his eyes, Han Li smiled.

With the help of the Comprehension Pill, he had successfully Cultivated it for the first time in one night, which counted as getting started.

However, it was only one percent, and he couldn't currently unleash the power of this Kun Peng Transformation Art.

"Although it's powerful, it's also difficult to Cultivate... For now, Divine Travel Eight Desolations is more reliable. Once Divine Travel Eight Desolations reaches a level where it can Breakthrough and evolve, then I'll improve the Kun Peng Transformation Art. This way, I can reach the Peak instantly..."

Thoughts flashed through Han Li's mind, and his heart settled down.

"The Comprehension Pills I prepared before going out are enough; I'll take my time!"

Looking out the window, Han Li then got up, washed up, and left the room.

After checking out, Han Li left Chang County and proceeded along his route.
