Chapter 1344: Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List

Han Li suddenly reached with one hand into his storage bracelet, and instantly, a seemingly ordinary leather pouch appeared in his grasp. He tilted the pouch opening downwards, and a small green bottle rolled out, which he quickly grabbed.

It was precisely the mysterious small bottle.

Han Li brought the small bottle and the Xuantian fruit together, one in each hand, and his eyes immediately narrowed slightly.

Although the two items differed greatly in size and shape, the dark green patterns on their surfaces were strikingly similar.

Could there be some connection between them? Was the mysterious small bottle also refined from some kind of Xuantian object?

Considering the bottle's incredible powers, Han Li's heart suddenly pounded.

The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

Although the bottle's material differed from that of this Xuantian fruit, it was also made of a material he had yet to identify. Calling it another Xuantian object actually made sense.

Han Li gently weighed the items in his hands. He let out a soft breath, and his gaze finally settled on the small bottle.

He suddenly placed the Xuantian fruit on the ground. With both hands, he twisted open the mysterious small bottle's lid.

A drop of emerald green liquid silently dripped onto the Xuantian fruit.

A sight that greatly pleased Han Li appeared.

The green liquid flashed with a faint green light and merged into the Xuantian fruit without leaving any trace.

Han Li's eyes glowed intensely with blue light, again piercing through everything inside the fruit.

He saw that as soon as the green liquid entered, it immediately dissolved into the tiny white light at the center. A moment later, the faint light spot grew slightly larger.

Upon seeing this, Han Li's heart stirred. After observing for a while longer, and seeing no further change in the white light, he finally dispersed the blue light from his eyes.

He lowered his head and fell into contemplation.

It seemed only this mysterious green liquid could affect the Xuantian fruit. Although he didn't know the purpose of that white light, to continue his research, it seemed the only way was to keep strengthening it with the green liquid.

After pondering back and forth for a long time, Han Li carefully put away both the small bottle and the Xuantian fruit.

He planned that whenever he had an opportunity, he would drip the green liquid into this fruit.

Unknown to Han Li, at the very moment the green liquid dissolved into the white light spot in the Xuantian fruit, in the Human Heavenly Spirit Realm, countless billions of miles away from Tianyuan City, at the center of a small island suspended ten thousand miles high in the sky, a crystalline jade tablet, a hundred zhang tall and inscribed with gold and silver runes, suddenly emitted a brilliant golden light. It simultaneously rang out with clear, resonant sounds that shot straight into the heavens and echoed throughout the entire island.

Two green-robed cultivators, who had been meditating with closed eyes beneath the jade tablet, simultaneously opened their eyes in astonishment.

"It's golden light! Has another Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure appeared?" one of them exclaimed, a mix of surprise and joy on his face.

The other person said nothing, but joy also appeared in his eyes as he gazed at the jade tablet.

Soon, from various parts of the flying island, which was only about a hundred li wide, more than a dozen startling streaks of light flew out, all shooting towards the location of the jade tablet.

Almost instantly, the area beneath the jade tablet was filled with another dozen or so green-robed cultivators. Gazing at the golden light flashing on the tablet, everyone's face was filled with excitement.

A moment later, the golden light on the jade tablet gradually faded, but the dozen or so cultivators below simultaneously grew tense, all staring at the jade tablet without blinking, as if afraid of missing something.

The golden runes originally located below the third row from the top of the jade tablet suddenly blurred slightly at the same time. Then, with a flicker, they strangely shifted down one row simultaneously. In the now empty third row, another line of unfamiliar golden characters appeared.

The cultivators below, who had been watching the jade tablet with extreme excitement, suddenly found their expressions frozen simultaneously. Everyone stared at the golden characters in the third row, their eyes wide and unblinking, as if they had all lost their ability to react in an instant.

"A Xuantian Spirit Object! A Xuantian Spirit Object has appeared! The Heaven-Slaying Spirit Sword! This newly appeared Xuantian Spirit Object is even ranked third! Heavens, is another True Spirit Tribulation about to descend upon the Spirit Realm?" After an unknown amount of time, a white-haired, green-robed old man unconsciously muttered.

The other cultivators seemed to have regained some awareness, but one by one, their faces were either pale or filled with extreme fear. Not a single one wanted to speak.

Finally, the golden light on the jade tablet completely faded away, and everything returned to tranquility.

Looking about a zhang above the jade tablet, a silver plaque, over ten zhang long, could be seen. On it, several large golden characters were written in ancient golden script: "Chaos Myriad Spirit List."

Not long after, streaks of startling light escaped from the flying island, heading straight for the three realms and seven lands of the Human World.

Almost simultaneously, in various larger forbidden areas of the Spirit Realm's desolate lands, belonging to different foreign races, on similar jade tablets, entirely different characters from various races appeared, all revealing the same message, shocking the highest-ranking beings within each race.

Not long after, the high-ranking members of various races, including humans and demons, suddenly stirred. Related commands were secretly issued through special channels to a very small number of existing entities in various locations.

For a time, the Spirit Realm appeared unchanged, but secretly, a storm was brewing. Every race appeared outwardly relaxed but was inwardly vigilant, all secretly strengthening their defenses.

Of course, all these events happened later. And at this moment, Han Li, the unwitting instigator, was unaware, meditating with closed eyes, preparing to leave his cave abode and return to Tianyuan City at daybreak.

Time passed little by little. Just as it was about to get light outside his cave abode, Han Li felt an inexplicable stir in his mind. He suddenly opened his eyes, a look of pleasant surprise on his face.

Without hesitation, he stood up, pushed open the secret chamber door, and headed straight for the beast room.

When Han Li stood outside a stone chamber and looked inside through a small window, he froze.

He saw that at the top of the black giant cocoon, a neat, head-sized hole had already shattered open, and it was empty inside.

And at the top of the stone chamber, a mass of ink-black dark clouds was hovering there, shimmering with a profound, dark glow. It was truly mysterious.

Han Li was, after all, no ordinary person. Although the scene before him greatly astonished him, he frowned and still cast a spell towards the stone chamber door.

Instantly, a flash of green light appeared on the stone door, and an invisible restriction vanished and dissipated.

The stone door slowly rose.

Han Li strode inside.

The ten-zhang large dark cloud in the stone chamber ignored Han Li's actions and remained motionless in the air.

Han Li gazed at the air, formed a hand seal with both hands, opened his mouth, and immediately spat out a grayish-black spherical pearl.

It was indeed the Soul-鳴 Pearl he had long since refined.

Han Li chanted incantations and lightly pointed a finger at the Soul-鳴 Pearl.

The pearl flashed with a green glow, and its surface began to flicker erratically between dim and bright.

The dark cloud above the stone chamber finally began to change. A chilling wind swirled around it. After the cloud spun rapidly, it condensed into a ball in the center, while streaks of black lightning suddenly erupted on its surface, and thunder boomed loudly.

The pearl in front of Han Li also began to hum, and the green light it emitted became blindingly bright.

Han Li's expression changed.

He could faintly sense a hint of resistance emanating from the dark cloud, as if it wanted to resist the Soul-鳴 Pearl's summons.

The advanced Tihun was actually attempting to break free from his control, just like the Six-winged Frost Centipede had once done.

Han Li had now fully recovered his magic power, so naturally, he wouldn't let this happen. He immediately focused all his magic power, and with a flurry of finger gestures, he shot out various spells which merged into the Soul-鳴 Pearl.

After the pearl let out a soft wail, its once brilliant green light gradually dimmed.

At this moment, the dark cloud condensed in the air finally, amidst a great thunderclap and countless black lightning bolts, transformed into a dark, shadowy figure. With a flicker, it leaped down, landing directly in front of Han Li, just a short distance away. It stared intently at the slowly rotating grayish-black spherical pearl, its eyes flickering with a bloody red glow.

Han Li's heart skipped a beat, but after clearly seeing the shadowy figure's face, an extremely strange expression appeared on his face—four parts shock, four parts surprise, and two parts an expression of being dumbfounded and amused.

The figure before him was actually another "Han Li," clad in a black robe. Aside from the different color of his robes, his face, build, and even the style of his attire were identical to Han Li's.

Now, seeing Han Li reveal such an expression, this "Han Li" also showed the same expression.

It gave Han Li an eerie feeling, as if he was looking into a mirror.

Han Li's eyes flickered with a strange light. After a long moment, with a frown, he finally spoke a probing question.

"You are Tihun!"

The black-robed Han Li opposite him, hearing this, had his expression change. He immediately adopted a dull, simple-minded look and replied with a wide grin:

"Ma... master, I... I am... Tihun!"

His voice buzzed, exceptionally crude, but his speech was unclear, like a toddler just learning to speak.

Although Han Li had already confirmed the other party's identity through the Soul-鳴 Pearl's connection, actually hearing the beast speak, he was still inwardly astonished.

"Have you achieved form transformation and soul stabilization, or have you learned transformation techniques?" he couldn't help but ask.

Hearing Han Li's words, the black-robed Han Li was tongue-tied, looking as if he didn't know how to respond.

Han Li paused, then his thoughts shifted, and he gave a wry smile.

He truly was confused. Even if Tihun had gained sentience, how could it instantly know everything?

He would need to infuse relevant knowledge into its mind for it to know how to reply.

If other cultivators were to do this, it might pose some difficulty.

But for him, it was an easy task.

Han Li suddenly touched the top of his head. Instantly, black light flickered, and a dark, inch-sized Nascent Soul appeared.

It was precisely the second Nascent Soul Han Li had cultivated previously.

When Han Li recovered his magic power previously, he conveniently cultivated this Nascent Soul back into existence. However, this Nascent Soul still only possessed abilities at the Nascent Soul stage, which was of little use to Han Li in his current battles, but it was very useful for inhabiting puppets and managing his cave abode.

Now, the Nascent Soul flickered and directly plunged into the black-robed "Han Li" opposite.

The black-robed "Han Li" suddenly flashed with black lightning all over his body, and a hint of pain appeared on his face.
