41: Tiandi Peak [Seeking for further reading]

The crocodile demon's body also had many uses and was quite valuable.

Working together, the group quickly divided it, with the largest share going to Han Li.

Selling it at the market would also fetch a considerable sum.

Things from demons always have many uses.

Most Materials for Alchemy must be obtained from demons.

After the division, the group continued deeper... until night fell, and Han Li's group finally left Demon Suppression Valley.

Within a day, they had slain three monster-grade demons; although they were only ordinary monster-grade demons, the improvement was significant.

"Junior Brother Han, let's go together next time if there's a chance."

At the entrance of Demon Suppression Valley, Bai Ling looked at Han Li and said.

"No problem." Han Li nodded.

"It's getting late, we'll head back first, Junior Brother Han, farewell." Chen Yuan cupped his hands.

"Farewell."

Han Li nodded, then his figure moved, quickly disappearing from the entrance of Demon Suppression Valley.

"It seems this person should have a place on next year's Mountain and River Rankings." Bai Ling murmured to herself, watching Han Li's departing figure.

Hearing this, Chen Yuan and Xu Qing exchanged glances but said nothing.

They had originally intended to lead Han Li on this trip today, but the outcome was the opposite.

Almost all the demons they encountered were killed by Han Li alone.

With this strength, the probability of him entering the Mountain and River Rankings was very high.

Furthermore, there was still nearly a year until the Mountain and River Tournament, and who knew how many changes would occur in that year.

Yuhua Peak, a whole Sect of freaks.

Even this newly recruited Disciple was no exception.

"Let's go, time to head back." Bai Ling withdrew her gaze, said a word, and then headed into the distance.

Chen Yuan and Xu Qing followed closely, quickly disappearing from their original spot... Yuhua Peak.

Han Li's figure appeared at his residence.

He glanced at Chen Qi's residence not far away, then stepped into his own courtyard.

After washing up, Han Li entered his room.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Han Li recalled the day's events.

Today was his first time entering Demon Suppression Valley, and with Chen Yuan and the others leading the way, Han Li was now quite familiar with the first area of Demon Suppression Valley.

The first area was vast, and he had noted the various dangerous spots in his mind.

In addition to the improvements gained from slaying demons, Han Li also collected some Spirit Medicine.

These Spirit Medicine, if sold, would also bring in a considerable income.

The Materials from the demon bodies also represented a substantial income.

The speed at which a Martial Artist earns money also far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.

"When I go tomorrow, I'll first check if there are any suitable tasks..."

A thought emerged in Han Li's mind.

Today, traveling with Chen Yuan and the others, Han Li also had some other gains.

Demon Suppression Valley was a Trial Grounds for Disciples, and at the same time, it was a place rich in Spiritual Qi.

Within Demon Suppression Valley, there were many kinds of Spirit Medicine.

Most Disciples who entered it also did so with tasks.

Besides personal Cultivation and improvement, earningMerits (merit points) was also important.

Merit points were very important.

With enough merit points, Spiritual Artifacts, Medicinal Pills, Divine Abilities, and Secret Manuals could all be exchanged.

Relatively speaking, merit points were more important than silver within the Qingyuan Sect.

Ordinary Medicinal Pills could be bought with silver.

However, some powerful Divine Ability Secret Manuals, top-grade Medicinal Pills, and the like could only be exchanged with merit points and could not be traded with silver.

Although he currently didn't need to Cultivate any more Divine Ability martial arts, accumulating merit points was still very important.

If he waited until he needed them to earn them, it wouldn't be something that could be earned in a short time.

Calming the distracting thoughts in his mind, Han Li carefully sensed the various changes in his body.

The murderous blood Qi could continuously allow his Physical Body to Breakthrough.

If he had enough blood Qi to make his Physical Body undergo a qualitative change, even if his Realm was still in the Vein Opening Realm, he could still fight an Innate Martial Artist.

He might even reach the point of slaying gods with a mortal body.

However, this gap was not just generally large; reaching this level of transformation would still require a very long time and the slaying of enough demons to complete the transformation.

Innate was the change of the martial Dao from mortal.

Besides the transformation of the Physical Body, the biggest change was the change in True Qi.

From Acquired True Qi to Innate True Qi.

The difference between cotton and steel.

This was also the fundamental reason for the power of Xiantian martial artists.

Both were True Qi, but the difference between Acquired True Qi and Innate True Qi was absolutely enormous.

The same martial arts, when unleashed with Innate True Qi, had a power difference like heaven and earth.

The higher one went, the greater the change.

"One step at a time, haste makes waste." His mind settled, Han Li then opened the panel.

name: Han Li.

Realm: Vein Opening Realm Early Stage!

martial arts: Fierce Tiger Fist Mortal Rank High Grade (Perfection)! Divine Travel Eight Desolations Mortal Rank High Grade (Perfection)! Qing Yuan Skill Earth Rank High Grade (83%)! Life-snatching Spear Technique Profound Rank High Grade (Beginner 96%)! Ben Lei Fist Profound Rank Low Grade (Minor Achievement 17%)!

skill: Archery (Perfection)!

Heaven and Earth Demon Seed: (Level 2 4%)

Divine Ability: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound (Second Realm 93%)! Winds Arise, Clouds Surge (First Realm 30%)!

"Life-and-death battles indeed bring great Breakthroughs. The more I delve in, the faster I can improve."

Looking at the panel attributes, the improvement from today alone was much greater than several days of hard Cultivation in the past.

"Tomorrow, I'll fight more; the Life-snatching Spear Technique has a high chance of breaking through to Minor Achievement."

With a determined thought, Han Li closed the panel, then took out his Iron Plate, circulated the Qing Yuan Skill, and continued to Cultivate... The next day, early in the morning, Han Li got up.

After breakfast and preparing dry rations, Han Li directly left his residence... Within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Han Li arrived in front of a grand hall on a mountain peak.

Heaven and Earth Peak.

This was one of the main peaks of the Qingyuan Sect, and also an important area within the Sect.

Heaven and Earth Peak housed various halls, including the hall for receiving tasks.

The hall before him was the Merit Hall.

Early in the morning, many Disciples could be seen entering and exiting the hall.

Han Li did not delay further and stepped into the hall.

The hall was very large, with a high dome, appearing quite spacious.

There were ten windows in total inside the hall.

These windows were where tasks were received.

Tasks were also divided by difficulty.

There were nine levels in total.

From level one to level nine.

Outer Sect Disciples could receive at most level one to three tasks.

Inner Sect Disciples, however, had much more freedom.

Depending on one's situation, there was no problem in receiving a level nine task, but if it couldn't be completed, corresponding merit points would be deducted.

Tasks of different levels yielded different merit points; the harder the task, the higher the merit points.

Arriving at one of the windows, Han Li took out his identity token, showed his identity, and could then receive tasks.

After confirming his identity, the Disciple at the window took out a mirror.

This was a special Spiritual Artifact; through the Spirit Mirror, he could see all the tasks.

Receiving tasks for the first time, Han Li was still somewhat curious.

The tasks inside were varied.

Collecting Spirit Medicine, slaying demons, and even wanted criminals from the imperial court could be seen among the tasks.

These tasks were diverse.

Each task had corresponding merit points listed behind it, clear at a glance.

Han Li looked for a long time, finally choosing three tasks for collecting Spirit Medicine.

They were relatively simple, and these types of Spirit Medicine could be found in the first area of Demon Suppression Valley.

The three tasks combined were only twenty merit points.

Receiving the tasks, confirming identity information, and having it recorded completed the process.

Once the tasks were completed, he just needed to deliver them to another hall.

After receiving three tasks at once, Han Li left Heaven and Earth Peak.

It wasn't that he didn't want to receive more tasks, but the Sect had a rule that one could receive a maximum of three tasks at a time.
