Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

“Although it was a bit troublesome, it was worth it. With this Grand Formation here, even if the Devil World Saint Ancestors were to personally arrive, it would be enough to resist them!” Han Li’s heart stirred. He immediately tapped the table with his finger.

“Thump thump~”

As the tapping sound spread, two figures entered the hall. They respectfully looked at Han Li, who was sitting in the high position, waiting for him to give orders.

Han Li calmly ordered, “Go inform the Elders in the city to come for a discussion!”

“Yes!” The two respectfully responded, then transformed into streaks of light and left the hall.

A few days later, the entire vast Heavenly Spirit City became exceptionally lively. Large numbers of cultivators entered and exited, carrying items such as compasses and formation flags as they moved through various parts of Heavenly Spirit City.

Not only the inner city, but also the various strongholds around the city became active.

They carried formation flags that were entirely light gold with golden patterns on them, appearing in various locations to replace the original formation flags.

Going back and forth like this, several decades passed, and the Celestial Mystery Grand Formation was officially deployed!

Heavenly Spirit City underwent significant changes.

After replacing Heavenly Spirit City’s defensive Grand Formation, whenever night fell, the entire massive Heavenly Spirit City would be enveloped as if by countless starlight and moonlight.

The moonlight and starlight flowed like a celestial river, continuously pouring into Heavenly Spirit City.

This was the Celestial Mystery Grand Formation operating, absorbing starlight and moonlight. This was storing the energy to operate the Grand Formation!

“This Celestial Mystery Grand Formation is indeed incredibly profound!” Under a palace, a Body Integration Elder looked at Heavenly Spirit City, which was enveloped by starlight and moonlight, and revealed a surprised expression.

There were very few Grand Formations in the Spirit Realm that could utilize the power of stars, moonlight, and the sun. They were all ancient and extraordinary formations.

Beside this Elder, another Elder’s figure appeared. Seeing the scene before him, he was equally astonished. He sighed in admiration, “The new Spirit Emperor is indeed extraordinary. With this Grand Formation here, our Heavenly Spirit City no longer fears the devil disaster!”

At this time, in the center of Heavenly Spirit City, beneath that towering giant tree, within a hidden area surrounded by layers of Grand Formations.

In the resplendent golden Medicine Garden, Han Li stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the moonlight falling from the starry sky. He said, “Brother Teng, this Celestial Mystery Grand Formation is indeed profoundly mysterious. Brother Han’s eyes have truly been opened!”

“This Grand Formation is alright, it’s nothing.” Inside the Immortal Vine’s inner world, Fang Ming was nonchalant.

Han Li smiled upon hearing this, then changed the topic and asked, “Presumably, Brother Teng has also more or less figured out a way to solve his own problem?”

He had a faint intuition that the Immortal Vine had, in all likelihood, already figured out a way to solve its own problem.

The law that the Mystic Heaven Immortal Vine would wither and turn to ash after flowering and bearing fruit might be broken.

“I have figured out a way to solve it.” Although the voice from within the Immortal Vine was calm, Han Li was startled.

Han Li’s heart tightened. He forced a smile and cupped his hands, saying, “Brother Han congratulates Brother Teng on breaking free from his restraints and obtaining a state of great freedom!”

“Brother Han, you are congratulating me too early.” At this time, a helpless voice came from within the Immortal Vine. “Although there is a method, I am unwilling to use it.”

“Why is that?” Han Li was stunned, saying with great confusion.

Fang Ming simply said, “This method requires abandoning this Immortal Vine body.”

“Abandon the Immortal Vine body?” Han Li was stunned. He cupped his hands and asked with confusion, “What kind of method is it exactly? Can Brother Teng tell me a little? Perhaps Brother Han can also help in some way.”

“Since Brother Han says so, it wouldn’t be good for me to hide it.” Inside the Immortal Vine, Fang Ming chuckled. It would be good to trick this Old Devil a little. He said, “Brother Han must also know that certain spirit treasures can gain sentience by chance. After absorbing spiritual energy for many years, they can transform into human form!”

“So that’s how it is!” Han Li suddenly understood. He immediately understood what Fang Ming’s method was.

Since spirit treasures can gain sentience and transform, then Xuan Tian Treasures can naturally gain sentience even more easily. As long as they continuously absorb spiritual energy and cultivate, they will naturally have the opportunity to transform in the future.

With the means of the Immortal Vine Spirit, quietly becoming the artifact spirit of a Xuan Tian Treasure is not a problem!

“Why are you unwilling to abandon this Immortal Vine body?” Han Li was puzzled. “If Brother Teng were to transform in the form of a Xuan Tian Treasure, I’m afraid he would immediately be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm, right?”

Han Li asked in confusion, “Could it be that Brother Teng is not interested in the True Immortal Realm?”

“Hehe~” Inside the Immortal Vine, Fang Ming chuckled, teasingly saying, “Brother Han, do you truly not mind me occupying Brother Han’s Xuan Tian Treasure and transforming with it?”

“Haha…” Han Li’s expression changed slightly, but he quickly burst into laughter and said, “If Brother Teng takes a liking to that xuan tian fruit, he can occupy it as he pleases!”

“Brother Han’s kindness, I appreciate it!” Fang Ming chuckled inwardly. He could see that the Old Devil’s words were not from the heart. He laughed and said, “Although this method is feasible, I am unwilling to use it.”

“Unwilling to use it?” Han Li frowned. “Brother Teng, what is so mysterious about this Immortal Vine body that Brother Teng is unwilling to part with it?”

In his opinion, the method the Immortal Vine Spirit thought of was indeed good and highly feasible.

Now, it seemed that he was truly unwilling to do so. If that were true, then this Immortal Vine body must contain a mystery that the Immortal Vine Spirit was unwilling to part with.

Han Li truly couldn’t think of anything important within the Immortal Vine whose importance could surpass his own life!

“Hehe~” A light chuckle came from within the Immortal Vine. “Brother Han, think about it, what happens after the fruit I nurture matures? What effect does it have? Why can the nurtured fruit have that effect!”

Upon hearing this, Han Li frowned. His thoughts raced, and soon he thought of something. He said in surprise, “Could it be that Brother Teng can directly comprehend the power of the laws of heaven and earth!?”

That Xuan Tian Treasure possessed great divine abilities and was something that defied the laws of a realm. It was difficult for Han Li not to think of these things.

“That’s right.” Inside the Immortal Vine’s inner world, since Han Li thought so, he might as well admit it.

Fang Ming continued, “The cultivation techniques, divine abilities, and Grand Formations created before all rely on this Immortal Vine body. Without this Immortal Vine body, I would be no different from an ordinary cultivator.”

“So that’s how it is!” Han Li understood. He sighed and said, “Brother Han completely understands Brother Teng’s actions!”

Thinking of the cultivation techniques he had obtained, as well as the black heaven spirit liquid nurtured by the Immortal Vine, Han Li immediately understood.

If it were him, he would not easily give up such an important body unless it was absolutely necessary, the very last step!

After a moment of silence, Han Li said, “Brother Teng, do not worry. If you cultivate magic power in the future, everything might be different.”

“Magic power cannot change the fundamental nature. How can the shackles of the Heavenly Dao be broken so easily?” Inside the Immortal Vine, Fang Ming shook his head.

His current actions, in essence, did not break the shackles of the Immortal Vine. They were merely cleverly leaving a seed to regenerate.

If there was no fundamental breakthrough in nature, he would still need to leave a seed the next time he bore fruit.

A trait that could be listed on the attribute panel was not so easily broken.

Han Li was silent upon hearing this. Made by the Immortal Vine, ruined by the Immortal Vine. He possessed the heaven-defying comprehension to directly perceive the laws of heaven and earth, but he was also bound by the Heavenly Dao, unable to possess magic power, and unable to escape the fate of dying after the fruit matured.

Thinking about such shackles alone made him feel suffocated.

However, that Immortal Vine Spirit had to face such a difficult problem, and it was naturally not easy to think of a solution.
