A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 300: The Turning Point, Already in Hand! (Please Subscribe! Please Vote!)
Before leaving, Han Li met with Gan Rushuang.

"Take this."

As he spoke, he handed the four bottles of pills he had obtained from Cangkun Cave to his sword attendant.

As Gan Rushuang took the elixir bottle, her eyes lit up:
"This is?"

"These four bottles of pills can help enhance the magical power of early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. Refine them as soon as possible to save some of your hard-earned cultivation effort."

Refining all the pills in the four bottles of elixirs in two or three years would be enough to save this woman more than twenty years of arduous cultivation.

"Thank you, husband."

Gan Rushuang was overjoyed.

"You should cultivate diligently. Only when your cultivation breaks through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage can I take you into the Fallen Demon Valley to obtain the Spirit Candle Fruit and refine the Creation Pill."

Han Li encouraged him:
"Oh, by the way, you can take these two antique treasures..."

Gan Rushuang's current equipment mainly consists of his natal magic weapon, the Vermilion Bird Ring, the high-level ancient treasure, the Condensing Light Mirror, the fine ancient treasure, the wooden sword, the fine ancient treasure, the Storm Fan, the fine ancient treasure, the Flowing Fire Pearl, the high-level ancient treasure, the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Sword, the fine ancient treasure, the Cloud Vine Banner, and a rare hairpin that he crafted from scraps of Soul Nourishing Wood.

It has plenty of offensive capabilities, but lacks defense.

Therefore, he bestowed upon the woman an ancient treasure shield and an ancient treasure cauldron, which he had obtained from the Cangkun Cave, to enhance her overall abilities.

"Husband..."

The beautiful woman pursed her lips, her heart filled with complex and indescribable emotions.

He was just a mere Qi Refining cultivator back then, but now he has become a giant in the Southern Heavenly Realm. It's truly a twist of fate.

"Alright, don't slack off. If you finish these four bottles of pills and still have some Tianjing left, you can try to trade with him for benefits."

Han Li gave him a word of advice.

This time, in addition to capturing the Wood Spirit Infant, he also needs to go to the Falling Cloud Sect to ask Cheng Tiankun to use several ten-thousand-year-old fire-attribute spiritual herbs as the main ingredients to refine a batch of top-grade fire-attribute spiritual pills, so that Gan Rushuang can enter the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm as soon as possible.

Ideally, one should have a mid-stage cultivation level before entering the Demon Valley.

This way.

The secret techniques of transmitting his Primordial Yin and the Pure Maiden Reincarnation Technique will play a greater role when he breaks through the bottleneck of the late Nascent Soul stage.

No wonder he planned so much.

The truth is, with his pseudo-spiritual root, his cultivation bottleneck was far greater than that of other cultivators. Even with the help of multiple Heaven-Mending Pills to refine his spiritual root, it only improved the efficiency of his spiritual root in sensing, absorbing, and converting spiritual power, but it did not improve the natural affinity of his four-element pseudo-spiritual roots for spiritual energy. After the original owner of this body smuggled himself into the Spirit Realm, this aspect did not improve much before obtaining the Styx Divine Milk.

In other words, his limitations are still much greater than those of geniuses.

Therefore, he had no choice but to make thorough preparations.

...

Han Li had just silently left the Xuan Tian Sect using the teleportation array.

Outside the teleportation array, Dong Xuan'er watched Han Li leave without saying a word.

He then went into seclusion.

Yuan Yao and Yan Li also entered a state of seclusion.

Gan Rushuang followed closely behind, never falling behind by even a fraction.

Behind everyone, it was as if an invisible hand was pushing them forward. Those who couldn't keep up would fall behind, like Lei Wanhe and Li Huayuan from Huangfeng Valley. Those two were once in the top tier, but now they had become marginalized.

Tianjing continued to refine Nascent Soul stage puppets within the sect, enhancing the sect's foundation.

As for Man Hu Zi and Qing Yi?

Barbarian Beard did not return this time, but instead traveled alone, trying his luck and seeking opportunities.

Qingyi and Old Man Sun went together to Fallen Demon Valley to deal with the Ghost Spirit Array Mage team on the outskirts of the valley, lest things get complicated.

Everything is in order.

...

More than a month ago.

Tianluo Kingdom, Ghost Spirit Sect Headquarters.

The Ghost Spirit Sect has occupied a large area of ​​Tianluo Kingdom with its own strength over the years, and then divided up the two small kingdoms of Jiang Kingdom and Cheqi Kingdom through war.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Ghost Spirit Sect made a fortune during the invasion of the demonic path two hundred years ago.

However, today, things took an unexpected turn.

On the altar in the offering hall, the three soul lamps, representing the life states of the three Nascent Soul Ancestors, suddenly dimmed to an extremely low level.

The Core Formation cultivator in charge of the area was terrified when he saw this scene.

"Disaster! Disaster!"

Something is wrong.

When the news reached the ears of the Core Formation stage cultivators and the only Nascent Soul stage elder remaining in the Ghost Spirit Sect, it was as if the sky had fallen.

The sect's upper echelons were filled with wails of despair.

"How could this happen? Father, Second Uncle, you are both Nascent Soul cultivators, how could something have happened to you?"

Inside the main hall, Wang Chan, the young sect leader who was in the mid-stage of Core Formation, trembled with shock at the sudden news.

His eyes were filled with fear and uncertainty about the future.

With the Wang family losing its two most crucial Nascent Soul cultivators, can he, a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator, still securely hold the position of young sect leader?
The thought of the terrible possibilities that might follow made him lose his composure.

"Father, Second Uncle, what exactly happened to you?"

Even if the physical body is destroyed, the nascent soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator should be able to escape back.

What kind of dangerous situation could it be that even a Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't teleport away in time to escape?

"Alright, Wang Chan, go back and sort out the affairs of the Wang family. The Wang family should not concern themselves with the affairs of the sect for the time being."

The only Nascent Soul cultivator remaining at the mountain gate said in a deep voice.

This person then issued a series of orders, including blocking the news and sealing off the entire mountain area.

I just hope that the outside world will find out about this information as late as possible.

He then arranged for his most trusted disciples to travel as quickly as possible to the Jiang and Cheqi kingdoms, where the Tianluo Kingdom was being liaised, to inform the sect's strongest member, "Soul Shattering True Man," stationed in both kingdoms of everything that had happened.

At the same time, a series of perplexing orders were issued.

For example, there are orders requiring disciples who remain to guard the original spirit stone mines to violently mine the various mines, and to collect as many spirit stones as possible as quickly as possible, with the main goal of depleting the resources.

For example, there were orders to harvest the medicinal herbs and plants from various herb gardens ahead of schedule.

Even if some medicinal herbs are only one year away from reaching the age of three hundred years and then maturing, the order requires them to be harvested and transplanted back to the sect immediately.

This order, which disregards costs and losses, left all parties involved completely bewildered.

Not sure why.

No one could have predicted that Tiannan Super Sect, one of the six major sects of the demonic path, which had five or six Nascent Soul stage experts guarding it just moments before, would see three or four of its patriarchs meet with misfortune the next. The soul lamps and soul flames of the group became extremely weak.

With its foundation severely damaged, the sect naturally no longer dared to compete with surrounding parties for interests in those sensitive areas.

But this is not the end, it's just the beginning.

The Ghost Spirit Sect committed countless sins in its early years, and those involved in the karma will eventually have to make amends for them. The profits they previously gained will not only have to be returned, but they will also have to relinquish much of their core territory to satisfy the appetites of various parties.

After all, when the Ghost Spirit Sect was at its peak, it committed arson, murder, and looting, offending too many powerful forces in its pursuit of expansion.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that enemies are flying everywhere.

just now.

The Ghost Spirit Sect has declined.

There will be no shortage of people who will kick someone when they're down.

...

Qianjingu Valley, a familiar place.

The golden wind here can interfere with the spiritual senses of cultivators; even the spiritual senses of those in the Nascent Soul stage are ineffective here.

In the past, only the sense of smell of monsters was the most useful.

Now, Han Li's Ming-Qing spiritual eye is also very useful.

One glance is enough to see what's hidden behind the autumn wind.

The Yuling Sect's team arrived several months later, led by a Nascent Soul early-stage cultivator whom Han Li did not recognize.

Originally, Han Li planned to directly seize it. However, interestingly, before he could make a move, a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator in the Yu Ling Sect team, who was responsible for guarding the Wood Spirit Infant within the barrier, had a wicked idea.

"I am only three hundred years old now, and I have more than two hundred years left to live..."

"My cultivation level is at the mid-stage of Core Formation. With my talent, if I follow the proper path, it will be very, very difficult for me to become a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"Without a major stroke of luck, my maximum potential in this lifetime is at most the late Core Formation stage..."

But he was extremely unwilling to accept it.

Born into a prestigious cultivation family under the Yuling Sect, and possessing excellent spiritual roots—a standard prodigy with both wood and fire spiritual roots—he went into seclusion to break through to the Core Formation stage during the invasion of the righteous and demonic factions. He missed out on the easy opportunities that came with the six demonic sects sweeping across the surrounding countries, where he could practically pick up storage bags without lifting a finger. Without those opportunities, he has virtually no hope of reaching the Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime.

It's important to understand that the family background and talent you have now are things you might not be able to have in your next life.

You were born into a good family in this life, but you might not be so lucky in the next.

"If I successfully merge with the Wood Spirit Infant, the situation will be different."

Admittedly, even if he successfully merges with the spirit infant, his lifespan will not increase.

However, his cultivation level will surge to the early stage of Nascent Soul.

This is not the most important thing.

Most importantly, he only needs to use his Nascent Soul stage cultivation to plunder extensively and obtain a great deal of wealth.

Turning back, he hid away again, dispersing the fused spirit infant to nourish his physical body and enhance his potential.

The scattered essence of the spirit infant will not disappear; it will transform into a foundation within the body.

By then.

Although he is still only at the Core Formation stage, his overall potential has increased by far more than a little bit.
Furthermore, by dispersing the nascent soul and returning to the Core Formation stage, one can avoid the drawback of difficulty in advancing one's cultivation level after fusing with the nascent soul.

"The remaining two hundred years are not only enough for me to recover my cultivation, but I can also use the essence within my body to make my cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, greatly increasing my chances of breaking through the Core Formation stage and condensing into the Nascent Soul stage!"

In his view, the true value of the Five Elements Spiritual Infants was not to cultivate five Nascent Soul stage fighters for the sect with no potential and little lifespan, but to artificially create several Nascent Soul seeds with the potential to form a Nascent Soul!

Ultimately, if he succeeds, he will not only have a great time experiencing the power of a Nascent Soul stage ancestor, but also reap a huge harvest. Then he can patiently lie low for two hundred years and wait for the day he rises to power.

At that time, he will surely be highly respected by countless disciples.

He rose to the top of millions of people in an instant.

His inspirational story will be passed down for thousands of years.

As for the Grand Elder and other high-ranking members of the sect? Could they possibly kill a true Nascent Soul stage elder with even greater potential and a longer lifespan?
If he unfortunately fails, it will simply be the end of his life.

After continuing his tedious ascetic practice for over two hundred years, he saw no hope of realizing his ambitions.

It's decided:
"Fight."

This person went through countless internal struggles before finally making the decision to fight to the death.

then.

While the Nascent Soul stage elder leading the team was slacking off at the Yuanwu Kingdom's headquarters, this person released the barrier that had imprisoned the Wood Spirit Infant.

Just as this fellow arrogantly believed that the Wood Spirit Infant was bound by restrictions and forced into a deep sleep, and was preparing to merge with the spirit infant, the spirit infant suddenly opened its eyes and stared straight at the middle-aged man who reached out to grab it.

"Hehe, kid, I've been waiting for you for ages. Why are you only now breaking the barrier?"

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man turned pale.

While unleashing his natal magic weapon to deal with the situation, he hurriedly retreated as if avoiding a snake or scorpion.

"Hey kid, why are you leaving? Didn't you want to become one with your grandma? Now that I'm opening my heart to you, why aren't you happy?"

With a gap appearing in the barrier, the suppressive force was greatly reduced, and the restrictions within the infant spirit's body were far less powerful than expected, allowing it to move freely.

then.

The infant spirit transformed into a strange green figure, gradually approaching the middle-aged man who was drenched in sweat.

"Don't come any closer!"

The middle-aged man spoke with a heart-wrenching, outwardly fierce but inwardly weak tone.

His response was to be bitten and sucked into by a man-eating plant that had been nurtured by a ball of green light, and then forcibly extracted from his brain by the demon infant.

The flesh and blood then fed the nearby plants.

After the Wood Spirit Infant broke free of the barrier, it was like a wild beast that had been freed, intending to carry out a retaliatory massacre of the Spirit Control Sect cultivators.

It also planned to devour everyone's primordial spirit and soul power to restore its own depleted vitality.

"What kind of monster dares to commit such atrocities here?"

"It is the Spirit Infant of the Wood!"

"How did the spirit infant escape?"

"Junior Brother Shi and Junior Brother Han are Senior Brothers from the East Gate. He secretly opened the barrier in an attempt to merge with the Spirit Infant, but failed and was attacked by the backlash..."

"Hurry up, the Spirit Infant is a Nascent Soul stage demon, we can't handle it."

The cultivators of the Yuling Sect sensed something was wrong and realized the danger, so they scattered like birds and beasts.

The dozen or so streaks of light scattered in different directions.

One escape is one less.

"Escape? Ha, a bunch of pastries and food, do you think you can escape?"

The strange little girl, transformed from a demonic infant, curled her lips into a mocking smile, her eyes revealing a cold and morbid grin.

It's as if hunting prey is an extremely interesting thing.

It made her extremely excited.

But just as the Wood Spirit Infant was using its extremely rare and exquisite Wood Escape Technique to move among the surrounding vegetation and quickly chase after the pitiful and helpless demonic cultivators to start a hunting game, Han Li appeared.

With the Mingqing Spiritual Eye combined with the divine sense of a great cultivator, the demon infant was quickly and accurately locked onto.

"Such a strong spiritual sense!"

The spirit infant of the wood spirit was very perceptive and was greatly surprised when it noticed Han Li entering the arena.

He immediately tried to escape using Wood Release.

Offense and defense can change in an instant.

"You audacious fiend, don't you dare escape and continue to harm people..."

Han Lilang said.

He was upright and righteous.

The next moment, the Wind and Thunder Wings flashed with lightning, instantly teleporting dozens of feet, flashing dozens of times in a single breath.

When it reappeared, it precisely targeted the location where the infant spirit was hiding.

"Damn it, you're only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, how come you possess a divine sense that's even stronger than that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator?"

The demon infant was terrified.

If it were any other mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, without special means, it would be impossible for them to see through her Wood Escape stealth technique.

But this person's spiritual sense was far too strong.

His Wood Release technique was simply insufficient against his opponent, riddled with errors. To shake off or even outmaneuver his opponent using Wood Release, he would need to advance to the mid-Nascent Soul stage, allowing the true wonders of Wood Release to be fully revealed.

"Damn it."

"Moreover, how come the golden wind here, which can weaken the power of divine sense, has such a low effect on this person?"

With this question in mind, the infant spirit fled frantically, using the Wood Release technique to its fullest extent.

However, he was never able to shake off Han Li.

They fled and were pursued, quickly flying dozens of miles away.

"Just right here."

As Han Li's voice fell, the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder transformed into a large net that enveloped the Wood Spirit Infant.

"It's no use, mere lightning can't hurt me."

"is it?"

　The second setting that fusing with a spirit infant would slightly increase lifespan has been removed.

　　Respect the original setting.
