Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao c1-1294

  Ling Han laughed loudly and said, “Say, cousin, do you still remember that we made a bet and you still owe me something?”

  “When did we make such a bet?” Yue Kai Yu was at a loss.

  Ling Han casually tossed an identity token at Yue Kai Yu.

  “Han Lin!” Yue Kai received the identity token and finally realized that Han Lin was precisely Ling Han! When they entered Duan Zheng Zhi’s old hideout, Ling Han once made a bet with him whether Ling Han could extinguish that many corpse soldiers in a limited time, and obviously he lost.

  So, this guy had already anticipated it!

  “You’re too crafty!” Yue Kai criticized. He finally understood why “Han Lin” would gift him Restore Spirit Pill so generously, almost like a dolt. After all the answers were revealed, he was too embarrassed to criticize Ling Han.

  It couldn’t be helped that he’d accepted those gifts and was now partial, no?

  Ling Han laughed loudly and said, “I’ll come see you in the future. As for now, you head back first. I’m afraid the old bastards will suddenly attack and drag you in.”

  “Can you block it?” Yue Kai Yu said seriously.

  “No problem,” Ling Han said full of confidence.

  Yue Kai Yu nodded, he fought alongside Ling Han in the Twelve Heaven Mystery Realm and was very confident in Ling Han. Since Ling Han said it was no problem, then there definitely wouldn’t be a problem.

  “Alright, remember to come visit me with my aunt and uncle!” he reminded again.

  “Got it, got it, why’re you so much like an old woman.” Ling Han waved his hand to dismiss him.

  “You’re the old woman!” Yue Kai Yu retorted, turning to leave as he kept waving at Ling Han.

  Ling Han also waved his hand, and then turned to leave, advancing in large strides.

  His mental spirit was raised to the limit, and once he felt the slightest rustle of leaves, he would immediately enter the Black Tower; he wasn’t afraid of what anyone thought now—since the news of the god’s treasure-trove got out anyway, even Shattering Void Tier elites could possibly attack him; there truly wasn’t anything to be afraid of.

  Considering, wasn’t there someone who opened the Sagittarius Palace previously? Why did the key circulate into the Jiang family’s hands? Obviously, that person was slaughtered.

  After half a day, he was far from the Winter Moon Sect; presumably the eight people who followed behind should attack soon.

  Ling Han smiled and jumped up abruptly into a large surging river. Pu tong , water splashed everywhere, but he didn’t float up, entering directly into the Black Tower.

  Xiu, xiu, xiu , nine figures descended from the sky. Each person revealed an astounded look because they no longer felt Ling Han’s presence. However, an old man revealed a hint of a joyful smile in his astonishment.

  That was obviously Yue Family’s elder.

  “How could he possibly disappear?” Shi He Shun yelled furiously.

  “This boy must have some special method that can shield his presence and tracks,” Ao Family’s elder conjectured, his gaze extremely baleful. His descendant, Ao Feng, who was most likely to advance into Spiritual Infant Tier had his spirit base crippled!

  “Chase separately!”

  The nine people immediately moved separately. Yue Family’s elder obviously had other plans; if he encountered Ling Han, not only would he not seize Ling Han, but also think of a way to bring him away.

  However, they didn’t know that the Black Tower turned into a speck that flowed with the surging stream and was rapidly rushing into the distance. This river would finally return to the sea, the exit of the desolate north.

  Ling Han didn’t care so much. He entered the Black Tower and reunited with his mother.

  “Son!” After seeing Ling Han, Yue Hong Chang who’d stopped her tears, instantly cried in streams again, hugging Ling Han, unwilling to let go. She’d already waited eighteen years by now and had assumed there would be no chance in this life for a reunion, but heaven was not cold to her, and finally, she saw her son again.

  Ling Han was also stirred up with emotion; he finally had a father and mother in this life.

  The mother and son spoke for a long, long time. It was basically Yue Hong Chang asking how he spent the many years.

  Ling Han naturally reported the good and not the bad, and when she found out that her son had become a Heaven Grade alchemist, Yue Hong Chang was shocked speechless. No wonder Ao Feng and the others called Ling Han Master Ling, turns out her so was quite accomplished.

  After chatting for half a day, Ling Han said, “Mother, let me introduce you to some people.”

  He brought Yue Hong Chang over to see Liu Yu Tong and the others.

  “It’s our honor to see Mistress!” Can Ye, Zhu Wu Jiu, and Guang Yuan paid respects kneeling on one knee, while the three girls sweetly called her aunty. Hu Niu was somewhat muddled, biting on a finger.

  Yue Hong Chang was instantly unable to conceal her happiness. These three girls were all so charming, especially Zhu Xuan Er who was so beautiful that even she would be touched. Her son was truly fortunate to find such beautiful wives.

  The three girls obviously ingratiated themselves intentionally. This was their future mother-in-law—even if Ling Han wasn’t interested in them, as long as they captured the heart of the mother-in-law, would they still fear not being able to become Ling Han’s wife?

  “Son, is this your daughter?” Seeing Hu Niu, Yue Hong Chan was involuntarily somewhat dumbfounded. Her son was only so mature, and he already has such a large daughter?

  Hu Niu stuck her hands on her hips and said in all seriousness, “Definitely not, Niu is Ling Han’s wife!”

  Yue Hong Chan was speechless. This girl was only so old, and she said she wanted to be her son’s wife—how long would her son have to wait? How long would she also have to wait before holding a grandson in her arms?

  However, this little girl was also really charming, delicate and beautiful, and after she grew up, her looks probably wouldn’t be inferior to Zhu Xuan Er’s.

  Hehe, take the adults and the keep the small one, all would be Ling Family’s people in the future!

  If Ling Dong Xing dared to be so fickle, Yue Hong Chang would definitely turn into a lioness, but it would be different for her son. The more wives the better, and best that all of them had big butts and could give birth to more grandsons and granddaughters for her.

  At this time, Ling Han had no room to interrupt. Yue Hong Chan took the absolute initiative as she pulled on the Liu Yu Tong and the other two girls, chattering away like they were already a family. Hu Niu was unadapted to such an atmosphere and began to eat again, not fearing that being able to eat so much would scare the future mother-in-law.

  “Can Ye, your path of martial arts is not by my side.” Ling Han called Can Ye over. “Following me, you can only become an expert in the future, but not a master of a generation.”

  He paused shortly, then went on, “I hope you can become a great master in the way of the saber, the emperor of sabers!”

  Can Ye’s breathing instantly sped up; he’d never thought Ling Han had such high expectations for him. He put up no pretenses, half kneeling as he said, “Master Han, I definitely won’t disappoint your expectations!”

  Ling Han nodded and said, “I’ll give you enough resources, but at most to send you to the ninth layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Tier. The following road you’ll have to walk on your own! However, the path you take on your own is the true martial arts that belongs to you.”

  “I understand!” Can Ye nodded.

  Ling Han pondered and said, “You can first go to middle state. I’ll be going there next, but not under the identity of Ling Han.”

  Can Ye understood; everyone knew that Ling Han acquired the Twelve Palaces’ legacy, and even knew the location of a god’s treasure-trove. If Ling Han still casually ran to the middle state, he’
d be broken into pieces by Shattering Void Tier elites immediately.

  “I’ll still be called Han Lin. You can take note, but don’t inquire intentionally,” Ling Han followed.

  “Yes.” Can Ye nodded repeatedly.

  Ling Han threw Can Ye several spatial rings filled with all sorts of medicinal ingredients and other ingredients from within the Black Tower. This needed several spatial rings to pack, so it could be imagined how many things were inside.

  Can Ye was not at all reserved. He kept his appreciation in his heart; if Ling Han needed anything in the future, he would be Ling Han’s saber, slashing towards any enemy.

  “Go!” Ling Han let Can Ye out of the Black Tower—the surging river water naturally couldn’t do anything to a Spiritual Pedestal Tier warrior.

  The Black Tower drifted with the waves, and after ten days, Ling Han finally came out of the Black Tower. At this moment, he was already far from the Winter Moon Sect’s territory. Having not found Ling Han in those many days, those Spiritual Infant Tier cultivators completely lost track of him.

  However, these people were very likely to ambush him at the Fallen Moon Gorge, the land that had to be passed to enter the desolate north.

  Spiritual Infant Tier experts ambushing a Spiritual Pedestal Tier one… saying this was extremely laughable, but Ling Han had a god’s skeletal remains that even Spiritual Infant Tiers dared not approach; so, obviously, they could only ambush him, not daring to let Ling Han summon the god’s corpse.

  Ling Han shook his head inwardly. The two god corpses weren’t preserved properly and were sucked of their godly essence, so the God Tier’s oppressive might was actually continuously fading; it was probably not long before they completely turned to normal bones.

  However, he didn’t care. Suppressing others with gods’ bones was no help at all to his path of martial arts, and if it hadn’t been for saving his mother this time, he actually wouldn’t have wanted to use it.

  There were too many resources in the Black Tower, such as king tier beast’s meat, high-tier Origin Crystals, various medicinal ingredients, and spiritual liquid. With these things added together, Ling Han’s cultivation advanced to late stage of the ninth layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Tier in a dozen days, arriving not far from the Flower Blossom Tier.

  His brute force finally advanced into the Spiritual Pedestal Tier as well, but the improvement rate began to slow down; after all, it caught up to Ling Han’s tier, unlike before where it improved at an explosive speed.

  Everyone’s improvements were evident. Yue Hong Chang who was originally at the third layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier improved to the fourth layer in roughly half a month’s time; it was clear how much benefit she received from the Black Tower.

  “In half a month, I’ll can charge at the Flower Blossom Tier,” Ling Han muttered. “If those old bastards still dare to bully me, I’ll use Black Tower’s power boost again to crush and kill each and every one of them, making them drop the idea forever!”

  Advancing into the Flower Blossom Tier meant that he would finally take a true step in martial arts and break away from the identity of a mortal, possessing two hundred years more lifespan and being able to fly in flesh.

  After another day, the majestic Fallen Moon Gorge appeared before him. It was as if a mark cut by a divine saber and could almost be claimed a wonder.

  He walked over in large strides. He had to go to the Star Brilliance Palace Hall because he’d once promised to let Long Yong Chang and the others observe him refining Restore Spirit Pill; in the end, he had Liu Ji Tong directly send the medicinal pill to Rain Country.

  However, there were many medium level Earth Grade medicinal pills he could refine, so he’d just change one to refine.

  Xiu , an attack stormed over, as fast as lightning!

  Ling Han’s instincts were faster than his consciousness, entering right into the Black Tower. This attack was too terrifying, reaching the level of the Spiritual Infant Tier. Not to mention that he didn’t even have the time to activate the Thunder Battle Armor, even if could, it wouldn’t be able to block a Spiritual Infant Tier’s heavy attack; the gap was truly too great.

  Hong , the place he was originally at instantly became a deep pit as a giant mushroom cloud soared into the sky. The destructive power of the Spiritual Infant Tier was too terrifying.

  This was aiming for his life!

  Through the Black Tower, Ling Han observed and saw a skinny dark old man appear. He looked ordinary but emitted a baleful presence, frightening people out of their wits.

  This was of course a Spiritual Infant Tier being, but what surprised Ling Han even more was that the old man had the presence of the dead.

  Corpse Qi!

  This old man was from the Thousand Corpse Sect.

  After staying silent for so long, the Thousand Corpse Sect finally moved.

  There wasn’t just one, as another short and fat old man appeared, looking like a merchant. His eyes were squinted, but as his eyes opened and closed, a shocking ruthless spirit was emitted.

  “Didn’t hit,” the skinny and dark old man said.

  “That spatial Spirit Tool is truly out of the ordinary, being able to block your attack,” the short and fat old man said.

  “It certainly is remarkable!” the skinny and dark old man said. “However, if this thing could be obtained by our sect, then whom would our sect need to fear?”

  “Haha, that’s right!” The tubby old man also rubbed his palms, laughing loudly.

  The problem was how would they get that treasure? They didn’t even know where Ling Han was, so they couldn’t even kill him.

  “Nine Clouds, you’ve dealt with that kid, what weaknesses could we take advantage of?” the tubby old man said towards one side.

  Elder Nine Clouds surfaced and said respectfully, “Elder Tian Che, that kid’s martial arts talent is surprising, and he has a keen divine sense. I’ve wanted to attack time and time again, but have returned empty-handed.”

  “Hmph, this is the north region where Spiritual Infant Tier warriors are kings. This old man won’t believe that even a Flower Blossom Tier junior can’t be dealt with!” Elder Tian Che was determined; a shockingly chilling glare emitted from his eyes.

  “Guard here, and once he appears, immediately take his life!” the skinny and dark old man said.

  “What?!” They were startled simultaneously as their gazes turned towards the valley’s opening, seeing eight old men tread over slowly. Within a few steps, they appeared before them.

  “So it’s Winter Moon Sect’s fellow brothers.” Elder Tian Che cupped his hands in obeisance.

  “Hmph, who’s calling you Winter Moon Sect’s brothers?” Shi He Shun said coldly. “Since you’ve seen us, hurry up and get lost?”

  “Get lost?” Elder Tian Che sneered. “Shi He shun, you do know what our sect is? The elder of our sect is an almighty Shattering Void Tier elite! Seven senior sect guardians are all at the Heaven Tier, thirty-three law kings are at the Deity Transformation Tier, and Spiritual Infant Tier experts like us are in the hundreds!”

  Hearing his words, Shi He Shun and the other seven were stifled.

  This force was too powerful. Spiritual Infant Tier experts were actually in the hundreds. Placed in the north region, were all the Spiritual Infant Tier warriors added up even near this amount? The Thousand Corpse Sect proved to be an ancient large sect—even just rising from the ashes, it had reached such a scale.

  “So what!” Ao Family’s elder rolled his eyes. “North region’s strongest elite is only the Spiritual Infant Tier, and Spiritual Infant Tier experts that cross over the region wall will have their cultivation, and even their life force, cut. Thousand Corpse Sect’s base should be in middle state, so why don’t you request a Deity Transformation Tier elite comes over?”

  “Our sect will unite the vast lands sooner or later, and when the time comes, if you guys don’t want
to become corpse soldiers, you’ll have to live at our mercy!” Elder Tian Che said loftily. “A mere region wall, you think our sect’s elites can’t break through it?”

  Shi He Shun and the other seven were all shocked. Right, how did the region wall come about? At most, it was the handiwork of a Shattering Void Tier elite, and since that was so, how could it block another Shattering Void Tier elite?

  “Those who comply with us will thrive, and those who resist us will perish!” the skinny and dark old man and Elder Tian Che shouted at the same time.

  “Bullsh!t!” Ao Family’s elder shouted angrily. “Evil never prevails over good. If your sect master dares to take rash actions, would middle state’s Heaven’s Sword Sect and Cloud Phoenix Sect not intervene to stop you guys? Stop with the nonsense, either get lost or die!”

  The other seven Spiritual Infant Tier warriors also looked cold. They were truly so awe-inspiringly righteous, but the thing on Ling Han was too precious, and they couldn’t not contest for it! If it were simply an ordinary figure, they’d probably break into a quarrel with the Thousand Corpse Sect.

  …The Thousand Corpse Sect was certainly loathed by everyone, but the key was that two people here weren’t rats; they were large old tigers, and striking them could harm one’s own bones, so who would be willing to start a fight?

  Elder Tian Che and the skinny and dark old man snorted, hallooing. As a ceaseless ear-piercing sounded, four caskets slid over from afar. Terrifying Corpse Qi filled the air, and could be felt from very far away.

  These two people planned to ambush Ling Han, so they obviously couldn’t bring Corpse Soldiers, which would be too evident.

  Peng, peng, peng, peng, four corpse solders leapt out form the caskets. Their faces were clearly frightening, but a layer of light gold covered their bodies, having a sense of holiness that astonished people.

  First tier Gold-Armored Corpse, equivalent to the Spiritual Infant Tier.

  There certainly was a reason why the Thousand Corpse Sect was feared by people. Corpse Soldiers didn’t fear death, ignored pain, and had astonishing defensive power. And the higher the tier Thousand Corpse Sect’s disciples were at, the more corpse soldiers they could bring. There were clearly only two Spiritual Infant Tier elites here, but they possessed the battle prowess of six Spiritual Infant Tiers.
