A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality - Chapter 914

Chapter 914: 914



“How about it? Do you have any certainty of restraining Devil Glorious Blaze’s incarnations? If they manage to escape, we’ll end up scaring them all away . ” One of the two figures sent a voice transmission to the other, speaking with a sharp voice .

The other figure snorted and gloomily said, “King Glorious Blaze’s so-called incarnations are created from soul mending techniques, forcefully refining them until they are obedient puppets . Their intelligence is greatly reduced as a result . Although they possess Nascent Soul cultivation, they are easily handled by cultivators of equivalent strength . It won’t be difficult to take them on together . But now that the old devil is releasing his own incarnations by themselves, it will benefit us greatly . Killing them would be the same as cutting off his arms . ” The voice was deep and low .

“Brother Heavenwind’s words are very sensible,” the sharp voice said, “However, I am quite curious about the person those incarnations are chasing . It was enough to make the old devil send men away from the tomb at a crucial moment and lose sight of his objective . ”

“Who knows? Regardless of who it is, they have no influence over our plans . King Glorious Blaze’s cultivation will greatly decrease when he leaves his tomb . This is an extremely rare opportunity . That old devil is extremely sly and never leaves his tomb for more than a moment at a time . If it wasn’t for the trap I set, I fear we wouldn’t have any opportunities in the slightest . After all, his abilities are no lesser than a late-Nascent Soul cultivator while he is in his tomb . ”

The sharp voice sinisterly chuckled and said, “If Old Devil Glorious Blaze knew that we have already leaked this plan to the other two noble clans, I wonder what expression he would make . The clans have already invited their sect backers and are waiting for him to take the bait . Besides, even if he manages to escape them through a fluke, we’ll be waiting outside his tomb . It will be impossible for him to escape . ”

“That’s right . Us brothers schemed over ten years for this plot . Furthermore, ever since we laid out the trap, we’ve always been outside, keeping an eye on his actions and allowing us to move at an opportune time . With him gone, his beloved concubine and his child won’t be able to stand against us three . Then, the treasures he’s accumulated for countless years and the thousands of corpse soldiers inside the tomb will be ours . And I’ve heard that his heavenly corpse body will soon be completed . From his cautious nature, the heavenly corpse pearl for the body should be hidden somewhere in the tomb . So long as we can find it and rid it of his soul, we can also make use of the body to cultivate body hardening and strengthening techniques . It is the ideal treasure for that type of cultivation . ” The deep voice of ‘Brother Heavenwind’ spoke with a greedy tone .

The sharp voice said, “Hehe! My cultivation technique doesn’t emphasize cultivating body strengthening techniques so I have no interest in the heavenly corpse pearl . I only want the thousands of corpse soldiers his tomb contains . With those soldiers, I could become a faction of power without leaving seclusion . ”

When ‘Brother Heavenwind’ heard this, he spoke with excitement, “But I know what Fellow Daoist Yin would say . He’d only want the Corpse Spirit Arts so that he will be able to control the corpse soldiers with ease . Otherwise, he would have to go and ask us for help to use them!”

“That sounds right . ” The owner of the sharp voice then examined the green silhouettes from a distance and proposed, “Now should be time to act . Since Brother Wild Sand is closely following after the old devil, there should be no problems . We should take action before something unexpected occurs . Let’s quickly get rid of the old devil’s incarnations and then returning to the tomb to lie in ambush . If we let the old devil make it back, things will turn for the worse . ”

“Yes, it is nearly time . The old devil should’ve left the Snowmound Mountains . Let’s set off . ”

Heavenwind paused for a moment before nodding in agreement .

At that moment, the two green incarnations were violently howling, but soon, they suddenly felt astonishing spiritual Qi fluctuations from behind them . They couldn’t help but to turn around to look .

As a result, they saw a large black mist and an astonishing storm of wind chasing after them . It filled up the entire sky and appeared almost as if it aimed to envelop the two .

. . .

Han Li was currently standing in front of a stone door behind the waterfall, completely ignorant of the great problem that another party had unintentionally resolved . Although he would’ve been able to easily dispatch of the two incarnations, it would consume the last opportunity for him to lift the Soullock Seal .

His eyes were focused on a corner of the stone door and there was a slight protrusion there with an inch large hole on top of it .

He reached for his storage pouch and took a sparkling silver key into his hand . He flicked his finger and shot it into the hole in a silver streak .

The key smoothly entered, leaving the outer half outside of the hole .

He smiled when he saw this and pointed his finger at the key, shooting out a streak of azure light towards it . Then, the key slowly turned a half circle and the stone white gate begin to glow in a layer of white light . With a faint tremble, the stone doors slowly opened, leaving a small opening for someone to walk through .



Han Li glanced at the opening before calmly heading in .

After walking over thirty meters inside, there was a three-meter-large transportation formation in front of him . There were eight grooves around the spell formation that were completely empty .

When he saw this, he let out a faint smile .

If one didn’t have deep knowledge of formations, they would put their spirit stones on all the grooves, resulting in the formation’s spatial power to completely disintegrate them . Whoever designed this hidden storage was quite shrewd .

He walked up to the spell formation and his eyes flickered several times . His sleeve trembled and five low-grade spirit stones shot into five separate grooves . Then, he struck the spell formation with a spell seal and the transportation formation began to hum .

With Han Li’s attainments in spell formations, he could see if there was anything amiss with the formation . He was able to quickly tell that it was safe and then walked into the center of the formation .

White light then wrapped around him and he disappeared from sight .

The distance he was teleported was quite short . As expected, he didn’t feel much of a headache from the teleportation due to his strong spiritual sense . Then in a flash of white light, he appeared in a large hall .

He swept his gaze across it and took the entire scene in .

It only spanned about sixty meters long and was made completely out of cleanly cut Warmstone . There weren’t many things in the hall: two rows of green shelves and three meter-long silver chests .



To Han Li’s surprise, the Feng Clan’s secret cave was quite small .

The wooden shelves were made of precious wood . Its color hadn’t changed despite its vast age and it still possessed some sort of fragrance .

An arrangement of over thirty magic tools were placed in one of the shelves, all of them at mid-grade quality or higher . There were several unknown magic treasures mixed amongst them and they appeared exceptionally eye-catching . On the other shelf, there were over a hundred various jade slips that were densely arranged .

He didn’t take another look at the magic tools and treasures, nor did he pay any attention to the silver chests . Instead, he walked over to the jade slips .

He swept his gaze past them and casually took one into his hand before quickly sweeping his spiritual sense through it .

His powerful spiritual sense allowed him to look through the jade slips in the time it took to finish a meal . To his surprise, none of them contained anything that was related to Buddhist techniques .

‘Could it be that Feng Yue had lied?’

Han Li shook his head and tossed the thought to the back of his mind . He had used the Dreamtear Technique to make sure that Feng Yue had been telling the truth . It was impossible for him to deceive him .

After some further thought, his eyes dropped down to three silver chests . Pondering to himself for a moment, he walked over and opened each of them with a wave of his sleeve .

One of the chests were filled with several hundreds of mid-grade spirit stones . Another one was filled with jade boxes of varying size .

Han Li swept his spiritual sense past them and discovered that they contained rare materials and pills . At a first glance, it was about as valuable as the chest of spirit stones .

After looking through these two chests and failing to find what he wanted, he unconsciously wore a gloomy expression .

After he looked into the final chest, he found various talismans sparkling with light . He immediately expressed disappoint after seeing this, but regardless, he carefully swept his spiritual sense through the chest . Then, his expression stirred and he reached his hand out towards it .

In a gust of wind, an object underneath the talismans flew into his grasp .

It was a scarlet wooden box that was a half-foot long . It had a faint yellow talisman sealing it and the surface of the box was engraved with Buddhist talisman characters .

He glanced at the talisman on the box and saw that it was a common Qi concealing talisman . He tore it off without hesitation and opened the box .

As a result, he saw seven-colored light shoot out from the box . The source of the light was a milky-white thumb-sized pearl .

“A crystal relic!” Han Li yelped in joy . The crystal relic wasn’t the only thing inside of the box . There was also two Buddhist Sect magic tools and a yellow jade slip .

The magic tools were a dharma wheel and a bracelet of golden prayer beads . They both glowed with faith spiritual light . As for the jade slip, it appeared unremarkable but Han Li’s interest was completely captured by it .

With a sweep of his hand, he took the jade slip and impatiently shank his spiritual sense into it .
