FunTranscript
00:00Welcome back to Novel Studio. Today, we're explaining a record of a mortal's journey to
00:05immortality. Immortal Realm. This story teaches patience, strategy, and the power of careful
00:11decisions. Let's see what lessons today's chapter reveals. Qixun stared at the silver seal on Liu,
00:17Lair's left arm, and immediately recognized the power of the flame. He mocked her, saying that
00:23such an incredible flame must have been given to her by Han Li, and called it an unexpected
00:28blessing for himself. From his reaction, it was clear that he understood the value of the silver
00:34fire raven sealed within her. Liu Lair, still bound tightly by the black net and unable to move,
00:41realized who he was. She identified him as Qi, Suan of the Heavenly Ghost sect. When she exposed
00:47his identity, his expression turned sinister. He admitted it and made it clear that he intended
00:52to use her to lure Han Li out. Understanding that she had become bait, Liu Lair tried to resist.
00:58Green light flared in her pupils, and specks of green radiance appeared on her glabella,
01:04indicating she was attempting some form of secret technique. However, Qixuan reacted instantly.
01:10He pointed a finger, releasing black light that entered her glabella and suppressed her technique.
01:15The green light was extinguished and she fell unconscious. Qixuan stated coldly that he would
01:21not kill her yet. He intended to capture Han Li first and then burn both of them at his
01:26grandnephew. Hauer's grave with ghostly fire. His attention then returned to the silver seal.
01:32After thinking briefly, he produced a red vial covered in complex runes. He activated it with
01:38incantations, causing fiery red light to emerge. Dozens of translucent threads shot out from the vial
01:45and penetrated the silver seal on Liu Lair's arm. These threads began pulling outward,
01:51attempting to extract the power sealed inside. The silver seal glowed brightly, and specks of
01:57silver flame began to leak out. Gradually, a weakened silver fire raven was dragged out of the seal.
02:03Its aura was faint as if it were half asleep. At that moment, azure light surged from within the seal.
02:09Attempting to pull the fire raven back, Qixuan sneered,
02:12and spat out a mouthful of blood essence into the vial to strengthen his technique.
02:17The red light intensified, and the threads formed translucent chains that locked around the fire
02:23raven's neck. This restraint enraged the fire raven. It awakened fully, released a furious cry,
02:29and unleashed a pillar of silver flames from its beak. The flames instantly destroyed the chains,
02:35and pierced through the red vial before shooting toward Qixuan at extreme speed.
02:39Qixuan hastily summoned a green shield and retreated, several hundred feet in an instant.
02:45Even so, a trace of silver flame touched his left arm, instantly reducing it to ashes.
02:50If the flame had been slightly stronger, he would have been severely injured or killed.
02:55He immediately swallowed a crimson pill. His severed arm regenerated within seconds.
03:00When he looked at Liu Lair again, there was lingering fear in his eyes.
03:04The red vial and green shield had already been destroyed, and the silver fire raven had returned
03:10to the seal. Instead of being discouraged, Qixuan became even more determined to obtain the flame
03:17for himself. Elsewhere, in a mountain range filled with spiritual ki, several figures landed at the
03:23entrance of a valley. They were led by a confident young man in white robes, about sixteen or seventeen
03:29years old. He ordered the group to enter the valley and capture, a purple cloud sable without letting it
03:35escape. An elderly woman with a silver cane, referred to as Granny Sun, hesitated. She explained that she
03:42had been ordered by the temple, master to remain by his side at all times for protection. The young man
03:48argued that this valley belonged to their, Origin Realm Temple and was near, their headquarters,
03:54so there was no danger. After he threatened to report her, she reluctantly entered the valley.
04:00As the young man prepared to follow, he sensed something behind him. When he turned, he saw two blue specks
04:06of light. His consciousness immediately faded. Hanley appeared behind him, holding a purple talisman, the
04:13high zenith invisibility talisman. Blue light flickered in his pupils, indicating he was using a soul search or
04:20hypnosis-type technique. Hanley questioned him about the star-gathering platform of the Origin Realm
04:26Temple. The young man responded mechanically, revealing that it was located at the pinnacle of
04:32Nine Palace Peak, not the main heaven-worship peak, because Nine Palace Peak was the tallest and best suited
04:38for drawing starlight. He further revealed that the platform was a restricted area, protected by a powerful
04:45restriction, and at least one body-integration stage elder was stationed there. After obtaining the
04:51information, Hanley tapped the young man's glabella and disappeared. The young man regained awareness but
04:57remembered nothing. Shortly afterward, a yellow talisman at Han Lee's waist activated on its own and
05:03burst into flames. Within the fire appeared an image, Liu Le'er unconscious, her wrist held by Qi Xuan. Qi
05:12Xuan addressed
05:12Han Lee directly through the talisman projection. He recounted how Han Lee had killed his grand-nephew,
05:19Hauer, and his friend Liu Ya. He accused Han Lee of hiding in the cold, flame sect. He then
05:26demanded that Han Lee come alone to Wraith Peak in Yin, necropolis valley of the heavenly ghost sect,
05:32within one month. Otherwise, Liu Le'er would die. As he tightened his grip, Liu Le'er's unconscious body
05:39reacted in pain. Han Lee remained calm and asked what Qi Xuan wanted. But the demand was already
05:45clear. A direct confrontation. With sinister laughter, the projection ended, and the talisman
05:51burned to ash. Han Lee's expression darkened. Half a month later, the scene shifts to the Yin
05:57Necropolis mountain range. It is noon, but the sky above a tall and steep mountain is covered by thick,
06:04dark clouds. Very little sunlight filters through. And the atmosphere suggests that a storm is about
06:10to break. The mountain is filled with trees, but they are not bright green. Instead, they are a deep,
06:16dark green, making the entire mountain look like an ink painting brought to life. At that moment,
06:22a rift suddenly tears open in the dark clouds. A streak of light shoots down from the sky and stops
06:27in
06:28mid-air, revealing a tall, broad, azure-robed young man, Han Lee. He hovers in the air and briefly
06:35surveys his surroundings. Then he closes his eyes and releases his spiritual sense across the entire
06:41mountain. After a short while, he opens his eyes again. A peculiar expression appears on his face,
06:47as if he has confirmed something. Without hesitation, he flies forward and descends toward a mist-filled
06:53forest. After landing, he walks forward, passes around an ancient tree, and finally sees a petite
06:59figure lying diagonally against a dead tree in the mist, completely motionless. He calls out softly,
07:06Lair. The figure stirs. Her eyelashes tremble and her eyes slowly open. When she sees Han Lee,
07:13joy immediately appears on her pale face. Even in her weakened state, she forces a faint smile.
07:19She tries to speak, but a restriction has been placed on her mouth. No intelligible words can come
07:24out. Han Lee calmly says, It's all right, I'm here now, and continues walking toward her. At that
07:30moment, Liu Lair seems to realize something. A horrified expression fills her eyes. And she
07:36frantically shakes her head at him, clearly trying to warn him. But Han Lee does not stop. She attempts
07:42to rise upright, but suddenly loud, crackling sounds erupt around her. Chains covered in arcs,
07:49black electricity materialize around her body, binding her tightly from head to toe. Every
07:54slight movement triggers bursts of black lightning that torment her. Han Lee's face remains calm,
08:00but a cold killing intent flashes in his eyes as he takes another step forward. Suddenly,
08:06everything changes. The white mist in the forest turns pitch black, like ink, and begins to churn violently.
08:12A fierce gust of wind sweeps through the forest, and the black mist condenses into a massive vortex.
08:19The temperature drops sharply, and ghastly howls echo from every direction. Han Lee stands at the
08:24center of the vortex. Darkness envelops him. A powerful suction force attempts to drag him
08:30downward. He gives a cold snort and continues walking forward, as if the vortex has no effect on him at
08:36all. At that exact moment, the ground on both sides of him explodes. With a loud rumble, two giant
08:42ghostly hands covered in sharp spikes burst out from underground and clamp tightly onto his legs.
08:48Simultaneously, the black mist above disperses. A terrifying pressure crashes down from the sky.
08:54An earth-shattering boom follows as a dark purple octagonal pagoda descends from above,
09:00like an immovable mountain, trapping Han Lee inside. The pagoda is approximately 500 to 600 feet tall,
09:07engraved with purple spirit patterns and emitting a deeply sinister aura. All of this happens in the
09:13blink of an eye. It appears as if Han Lee has fallen into a perfectly prepared trap. Liu Lei struggles
09:20desperately, muffled cries escaping her mouth. But the more she struggles, the tighter the electrically
09:26charged chains constrict around her, and the black lightning intensifies her agony. The mist surges
09:32around the pagoda and four figures emerge. One of them is Qixuan. Opposite him stands a well-built,
09:39yellow-robed man. The other two are a thin middle-aged man in a silver robe, and a red-robed,
09:44middle-aged woman. All four are deity transformation cultivators. They were maintaining identical hand
09:50seals, which they withdraw only after the pagoda fully descends. Qixuan smiles and salutes the yellow-robed
09:57man. It's all thanks to your purple nether pagoda, Elder Tian, that we captured that Han
10:02brat in one fell swoop. The yellow-robed man looks pleased. He replies that Qixuan paid a heavy price
10:09to borrow this treasure from his master. He even questions whether using such a powerful,
10:14divine spirit, treasure against a mere nascent. Soul cultivator is excessive. Qixuan explains that
10:20Elder Luya died by Han Lee's hands, and he was punished severely by the enforcement.
10:25Hall. He could not afford to take risks. The red-robed woman reminds Qixuan not to forget what
10:32he promised them in exchange for their help. Before Qixuan can finish his assurance, the pagoda
10:37suddenly shakes violently. The earth trembles with it. The red-robed woman looks alarmed.
10:42The silver-robed man calmly says that his rot-brute ghost is inside the pagoda with Han Lee. He assumes
10:49Han Lee is resisting and that the ghost is handling him. But another explosion erupts from within the
10:55pagoda louder than before. The ground splits with deep cracks, spreading outward like cobwebs.
11:01When asked again, the silver-robed man suddenly vomits blood. His expression turns pale as he
11:06realizes his rot-brute ghost has been killed. The others are shocked. The yellow-robed man insists that
11:13even so, the purple-nether pagoda is a divine spirit treasure. Even spatial-tempering cultivators would
11:18struggle to escape it. Qixuan, however, is not reassured. He reminds them that the pagoda is meant for
11:25body-integration cultivators. With their combined deity transformation power, they are barely able to
11:32operate it at reduced effectiveness. He proposes killing Han Lee immediately. The others agree. They
11:40resume identical hand seals and begin chanting incantations. The purple patterns on the pagoda light up.
11:46Profound runes appear. Dense purple key spills out. The air grows colder. Frost forms on the ground.
11:55The pagoda sinks deeper into the earth under increased weight. Then it shakes again. This time,
12:01massive cracks appear along its entire structure from top to bottom. In the next instant, the pagoda
12:06explodes violently. Purple mist erupts outward. Shock waves sweep the area, forcing even the four deity
12:13transformation-transformation cultivators to retreat. Liu Lair is blown backward by the force. As the dust
12:20settles, a giant ghost, fifty to sixty feet tall, is revealed. It lies on its back with a massive hole
12:27punched through its chest, black putrid blood flowing out. Han Lee stands calmly on top of its head. He first
12:34checks Liu Lair to confirm she is unharmed. Then he turns his gaze toward the four deity-transformation
12:40cultivators. Without hesitation, he throws two punches through the air. One aimed at the silver-robed
12:47man, the other at the red-robed woman. They both feel overwhelming force rushing toward them. There is
12:53no time to dodge. The silver-robed man reacts by releasing dense black key from his sleeves. Five
13:00blood-stained ghostly heads emerge from the key, opening their mouths as they rush toward the shock wave.
13:06Behind them, he releases a crimson ghostly seal engraved with yin runes. It rapidly enlarges to
13:13house size and positions itself defensively. At the same time, the red-robed woman panics.
13:19She releases thirteen bone-flying swords with a flick of her wrists. Then she viciously digs her nails
13:26into her own forearm, tearing open her flesh. From the wounds crawl countless red blood insects the size
13:33of rice grains, instantly forming a crimson shield in front of her. A string of dull thumps rang out at
13:40the
13:40same time from both sides. The moment the five ghostly heads surged forward, they exploded like smashed
13:47watermelons. The crimson ghostly seal didn't even last a breath. It was completely pulverized. On the other
13:53side, the thirteen bone swords shattered instantly, crumbling into dust, and the crimson shield was torn
13:59apart as if it were nothing more than thin paper. Two blood-curdling screams rang out almost simultaneously.
14:06The silver-robed man and the red-robed. Woman's bodies exploded violently on the spot.
14:11From the remains of the silver-robed man, a purple nascent soul about two inches tall shot out. Its tiny
14:18face was filled with horror as it immediately tried to flee. But before it could travel any meaningful
14:23distance, Han Lee appeared beside it in a flash. He reached out and caught it firmly in his grasp.
14:30The nascent soul struggled desperately, writhing with all its strength, but Han Lee gave a casual squeeze.
14:37In that instant, it was erased from existence. Meanwhile, the red-robed woman's nascent soul
14:43acted more cautiously. Instead of fleeing immediately, it used the silver-robed man's distraction to slip away,
14:50darting rapidly toward the distant forest. Han Lee turned slightly and opened his mouth.
14:56A burst of white key shot out, transforming mid-air into a flying sword that sliced forward
15:02at astonishing speed. A deep rumbling echoed from the forest. One giant tree after another collapsed.
15:08Deep within the woods, a streak of white light flashed past. The red-robed woman's nascent soul was
15:15instantly split into two, and disintegrated into specks of light. What seemed complex had all
15:21occurred within the blink of an eye. At the same time, Kishuan and the yellow-robed man were
15:27already fleeing in opposite directions, desperately using secret techniques to increase their speed.
15:32The yellow-robed man stood atop a giant bone bird. With each flap of its wings, it covered two
15:39thousand to three thousand feet. Moving at astonishing speed, Kishuan had grown a pair of
15:44crimson wings. Nearly ten feet long and was flying even faster. He had already crossed over ten thousand
15:50feet. Both of them felt the instant disappearance of their companions' auras. Terror gripped their
15:56hearts. The yellow-robed man immediately produced a black and red, octagonal copper mirror. It flashed and
16:03positioned itself behind him. Still not feeling safe, he released nine small black flags that
16:08connected mid-air to form. A dense black light barrier around him. Then cracking sounds echoed
16:14from his body. His clothes tore apart as thorn-like bone spikes, pierced through his skin and fused into
16:21a suit of bone, armor protecting his vital areas. On the other side, Kishuan's expression turned decisive.
16:27Without hesitation, he raised his right hand and chopped off his own arm. Blood erupted and transformed
16:34into a cloud of blood mist that wrapped around him, turning him into a streak of crimson light that
16:40shot forward at terrifying speed. Hanley frowned slightly but did not give immediate chase.
16:46Instead, he pointed toward Liu Lair from afar. An azure streak entered her body. Black lightning chains
16:52instantly manifested around her and shattered with dull thumps.
16:56Brother Rock! Liu Lair cried out joyfully. Hanley gave her a faint smile and beckoned gently. A dull
17:03black talisman flew out of her body and exploded mid-air, releasing five miniature black mountains that
17:09landed in his hand. Hanley then looked toward the fleeing figures. His arms blurred. Two miniature
17:16mountains shot out, turning into black shadows that tore through the air toward Chi-Shin and the yellow-robed
17:23man. Mid-flight, black light flashed across their surfaces, and each expanded to over one hundred feet
17:29in size, distorting the surrounding space. The yellow-robed man sensed the terrifying force approaching
17:35from behind. He tried to form a hand seal, but it was too late. The black mountains smashed through
17:41everything. The copper mirror. The black flags and every protective treasure were obliterated instantly.
17:47The bone bird beneath him exploded into fragments with a despairing cry. His bone armor shattered,
17:53and his body was crushed into mangled flesh. His nascent soul didn't even have the chance to escape
17:59before it was annihilated. By now, Chi-Shuan was nearly four kilometers away. He saw the destruction
18:04behind him and felt despair. The second black mountain hurtled toward him. In desperation,
18:09he roared. His eyes turned bright red. Veins bulged across his crimson body as he swelled like a balloon.
18:16With a deafening explosion, flames scattered everywhere. His body exploded into a massive
18:22ball of crimson light, crimson ripples spreading outward. The black mountain arrived and was slightly
18:28stalled by the crimson energy. Seizing that instant, Chi-Shuan's nascent soul shot out and vanished.
18:34A moment later, it reappeared over one thousand feet away. It spat out a ball of blood essence that
18:40formed. Crimson light around it and continued, fleeing at extreme speed. Hanley narrowed his eyes.
18:46He beckoned to Liu Laer again. Silver light flashed from her left arm, and a clear cry rang out.
18:53Countless silver flames gathered into a palm-sized, silver fire raven that landed on Hanley's hand.
19:00With a hand seal and a point of his finger, the raven transformed. It enlarged, elongated,
19:06and became a fiery silver bow covered in dancing silver runes. There was no arrow knocked,
19:12yet Hanley pulled the bowstring. The bow glowed brilliantly. Silver flames converged into a fire
19:19arrow aimed at, Chi-Shuan's nascent soul nearly ten kilometers away. Even at that distance,
19:25the nascent soul felt an intense chill and dread. Stop! A thunderous roar erupted from afar. A speck
19:33of black light swelled into a dark cloud racing toward them. Chi-Shuan's nascent soul turned toward
19:38it in hope. Hanley ignored the voice and released the string. The silver arrow vanished, then reappeared
19:45instantly behind the nascent soul. Piercing through it, silver flames engulfed it. With a horrified wail,
19:52it was reduced to black light and destroyed. The dark cloud arrived too late.
19:57How dare you! Thunder roared within it. A massive black ghostly claw the size of a small mountain
20:04extended downward. Yin wind howling. Black ghostly flames ignited at its fingertips, releasing countless
20:10fireballs like a storm. Hanley remained calm. He clenched his fist and punched toward the sky.
20:16A terrifying force erupted upward. The black fireballs were extinguished instantly. The giant
20:22claw halted mid-air. Black light flashing briefly before exploding into dissipating key. Violent winds
20:29tore the dark cloud apart. A black-robed elderly man was revealed within. His body swaying slightly in
20:35shock. Hanley looked up at him with faint derision. The elderly man's expression darkened. He produced a
20:42shimmering silver array plate and hurled it downward. It screeched and exploded mid-air. Boundless silver
20:48radiance spread across over one thousand feet. Engulfing Han Lee and Liu Laer, countless silver
20:54runes filled the light, accompanied by what sounded like Buddhist chanting. Hanley immediately recognized
21:00the technique, minor spatial teleportation. Before he could react fully, a streak of black light shot from
21:07within the silver radiance toward Liu Laer. Hanley vanished and reappeared before her, casually
21:13swatting it away. It was a black flying dagger. The silver light suddenly intensified, filling his
21:19vision. When it faded, the scene had changed. Hanley found himself in a massive valley beneath dense,
21:25dark clouds. Black mountains rose on both sides, dotted with buildings. He and Liu Laer stood on a huge
21:32plaza several hundred acres wide, paved with black jade that emitted plumes of black key, forming a
21:38resilient mist layer like a black cloud beneath their feet. Hovering above them was the black-robed
21:44elderly man. Ahead stood an enormous, majestic hall. Above its entrance hung a black plaque bearing the
21:50words, Heavenly Ghost Hall. Almost the instant Han Lee and Liu Laer appeared on the expansive plaza,
21:57the earth beneath the enormous platform began to tremble. From the surrounding soil, nine colossal
22:04black stone pillars surged upward, forming a near-perfect circle. Each pillar was thick enough
22:09that an adult could barely wrap their arms around it. Standing over a hundred feet tall, engraved with
22:15countless intricate runes and array patterns, embedded within them were glowing black. Gemstones,
22:22special spirit stones, pulsating with sinister light. Atop each pillar rested a statue of a ghostly
22:29creature, exquisitely lifelike, exuding an aura that sent chills running down anyone's spine. As black
22:35light rose from all nine statues, the beams connected, forming a hemispherical barrier of dense, flashing
22:42black energy. Its surface flickered with countless black runes, while ghostly projections emerged from
22:48within, accompanied by eerie wails. Even Liu Laer, no longer a naive girl, instinctively sidled closer to
22:56Han Lee, shivering at the terrifying display. Without a glance at the black-robed elder hovering above the
23:02plaza, Han Lai released the silver fire raven from his palm. The bird transformed into a protective
23:08silver net of fire around Liu Laer. Stay in there. Don't be afraid, he said calmly, his composed
23:15presence reassuring her. From all directions, streaks of light converged, black-robed, heavenly
23:22ghost sect disciples descending onto the plaza. Within moments, several hundred were present, with more
23:29approaching. But Han Lee ignored them, focusing instead on the nine pillars and the barrier, his
23:35blue-tinged gaze analyzing every rune and ghostly projection. The disciples, witnessing only an
23:41ordinary young man and a small girl, assumed the sect was under attack. Yet none dared question the
23:47dark expression of the black-robed elder. The elder, without addressing the disciples, descended onto a
23:54pillar, releasing nine array plates from his sleeves while performing rapid hand seals. Each plate flew onto a
24:00pillar, vanishing into the black light and causing the barrier to thicken. Ghostly projections sharpened,
24:07growing more substantial, yet the elder continued his hand seals, maintaining the array with intense
24:12focus. Suddenly, two streaks of light arrived from the distance, revealing two more spatial-tempering
24:18cultivators, a white-haired elder and an imposing dark-skinned man. The presence of three sect elders
24:25instantly silenced the crowd. They swept spiritual sense over Han Lee and Liu Lair, inspecting both the
24:32duo and the surrounding plaza. The white-haired elder frowned, displeased.
24:37Elder Zhang, why use the minor spatial teleportation plate to bring these two juniors here? And the nine heavenly
24:43ghost monarch pillars? You know the resources required to activate this array even once. The dark-skinned man eyed the
24:50black-robed elder skeptically, unwilling to cooperate. You activated this array just for two low-grade
24:56cultivators? Are we joking? Nearby disciples murmured, noticing the disparity. The trapped
25:02pair were only nascent soul and core formation stage, yet the spatial-tempering elder had deployed
25:09nearly ultimate defensive measures. The black-robed elder's urgent voice pierced through. Don't
25:15underestimate them. The nascent soul brat's body. Cultivator abilities are far beyond his apparent
25:21cultivation. Han Lee, still calm, suddenly murmured to himself. Since I'm here, why not kill two birds
25:27with one stone? His body blurred as he sped to the edge of the barrier, tapping it lightly with a
25:33finger.
25:34Instantly, the entire black light barrier shuddered, flashing erratically. Ghostly projections erupted
25:40into chaos, shrieking. The dark-skinned man's grin vanished. Shock froze his eyes. The black-robed
25:47elder coughed blood, making frantic hand-seals to stabilize the array. We need to stabilize the array!
25:54Don't let him break free! yelled the white-haired elder, flying to a pillar. But it was too late.
26:00With one final flash, the ghostly projections vanished. Nine enormous ghostly faces erupted on
26:06the barrier corresponding to the pillars, shrieking with ear-piercing agony. The disciples screamed in
26:12pain, some bleeding from their ears and noses. Black runes surged and crumbled. The barrier
26:18shattered like glass. The statues atop the pillars cracked and exploded. Han Lee withdrew his finger,
26:24hands clasped behind his back, walking toward Liulair amid drifting specks of black light.
26:29She beamed under the silver net, overjoyed but cautious due to the enemies still surrounding them.
26:35The three spatial, tempering elders were stunned. The array had collapsed effortlessly. The disciples
26:42stood dumbfounded. The black-robed elder's fury erupted. He unleashed a white light that shaped into
26:48a massive, bone blade with nine silver rings, chanting and releasing five or six incantation seals.
26:54Crimson runes appeared on the blade. Forming a projection nearly, 1,000 feet long aimed directly
27:00at Han Lee, the white-haired elder summoned a black cane, transforming it into a dragon-shaped worm
27:06spewing black flames. The dark-skinned man raised a gray feather fan, conjuring seven or eight wind
27:13dragons of fierce gray gusts. The surrounding disciples joined, releasing treasures and incantations.
27:19The plaza became a storm of colored spiritual light. Han Lee calmly unleashed his spiritual
27:24sense over the plaza. The entire area shuddered under the overwhelming spiritual pressure.
27:30Stars danced before the disciples' eyes, and many collapsed unconscious, along with their summoned
27:36treasures falling to the ground. The three elders remained standing, unaffected but still attacking.
27:42Blade projections, black flames, and wine dragons descended upon Han Lee. He remained motionless,
27:49each attack, blade, flame, or wind dragon, was instantly destroyed on contact. His azure robes
27:56remained pristine. Liu Lair was fully protected under the silver net. The elders gasped in disbelief.
28:02Han Lee raised his head. It's my turn now, he said indifferently,
28:07a calm storm ready to strike back. The moment Han Lee's voice fades, his figure blurs and disappears from
28:13the spot entirely. There is no warning, no buildup, just instantaneous movement.
28:19The black robe shouts, Look out! His voice is urgent, but it comes too late. Before he can even finish
28:25processing what's happening, something flashes before his eyes. In the next instant, a terrifying
28:30force slams into him. It feels as if an entire mountain has crashed directly into his body. He is
28:36sent flying backward like a ragdoll, soaring all the way to a distant mountain outside the plaza. The impact is
28:42so violent that his body embeds completely into the mountain face. Whether he survives or not is
28:48unclear. The white-haired elderly man and the dark-skinned man witness this shocking scene,
28:54but they don't even have time to understand it. Two more dull, heavy thumps echo through the air.
28:59Both of them are also blasted away in different directions. Crashing heavily into the mountain face,
29:05just like the black-robed elder. The entire plaza falls silent. Leuler stands there staring at the
29:11scene, unconscious bodies everywhere. Treasures scattered across the ground. Her jaw drops completely.
29:17She has always known Han Lee as powerful, but this level of dominance goes far beyond her imagination.
29:24It feels unreal, almost like a dream. While she is still frozen in shock, Han Lee suddenly appears
29:30beside her and asks gently, Are you all right, Leer? She quickly replies, still shaken. I'm fine.
29:38Brother Rock, it's all thanks to those treasures and pills you gave me. That Chishuan was truly insidious.
29:44Not only did he want your spirit flame, he used me as bait to lure you here.
29:48Thankfully, he didn't harm me. He only kept me prisoner. Han Lee nods calmly. Then,
29:53without wasting time, he sits down cross-legged and takes out a white pill, placing it into his
29:58mouth. Although he deliberately held back during his earlier spiritual sense attack,
30:03his already limited magic power has been nearly drained. Seeing this, Leuler grows anxious again.
30:09She glances around nervously and says, Shouldn't we leave before others arrive,
30:13Brother Rock? The massive commotion has already alerted the entire heavenly ghost sect.
30:19Numerous streaks of light are converging toward the plaza. From all directions, Han Lee simply smiles.
30:25There's no hurry to leave. Moments later, six particularly powerful streaks of light arrive.
30:31Six figures reveal themselves. Their aura's not inferior to the earlier, spatial-tempering stage
30:37elders. They look down and are immediately alarmed by the devastation. Their spiritual
30:42senses sweep toward Han Lee as they try to assess his cultivation. They hesitate. They exchange glances.
30:48Then they retreat slightly to create distance before releasing their treasures. Six differently
30:54colored treasures descend from the sky, shrieking through the air with terrifying force as they
30:59shoot toward Han Lee. Han Lee does not even stand up. Remaining seated, he throws six punches in six
31:05directions. Shock waves explode outward. Deafening booms shake the plaza. It is as if the treasures have
31:11collided with invisible walls. Six massive bursts of spiritual light erupt simultaneously,
31:16and the very space trembles violently. When the light fades, Han Lee is gone. The six cultivators
31:22falter in shock. Suddenly, Han Lee appears in front of a narrow-eyed, middle-aged man and throws a punch
31:28without hesitation. The man has no time to react. He is blasted backward by overwhelming force. Five rapid
31:35booms follow. Then a heavy crash. The man falls unconscious. Han Lee moves again, striking each of the
31:41remaining spatial-tempering cultivators with a single punch. Each one is sent flying, defeated instantly.
31:48He then calmly returns to Liu Leher's side, standing with his hands clasped behind his back. The heavenly
31:55ghost-sect cultivators, arriving from all directions, witness this scene and freeze in place. High and mighty
32:01spatial. Tempering elders, swatted away like flies by a seemingly ordinary, nascent soul cultivator.
32:08Some elders have smashed deep craters into the plaza. Some are embedded in mountain faces. Others have
32:14crashed through buildings. Hundreds of disciples lie unconscious. Treasures are scattered everywhere.
32:20It is a terrifying sight. At this moment, a streak of white light shoots across the sky and appears above
32:26the ruined. Heavenly ghost hall. The light fades, revealing a burly man in a silken robe,
32:33appearing around thirty to forty years old, with a square face and a short purple beard. His aura is
32:38formidable. Grand Elder Liu. The disciples shout in relief as if salvation has arrived. Grand Elder Liu's
32:45gaze locks onto. Han Lee. He immediately begins forming rapid hand seals. Han Lee smiles faintly to himself.
32:52So a body integration cultivator has finally shown up. With a flip of his hand, a miniature black
32:58mountain appears. With a swipe of his arm, it flies forward, swelling mid-air to several hundred feet
33:04tall, then over a thousand feet in height, as it hurtles toward. Grand Elder Liu. The force it releases
33:11distorts the air itself. Grand Elder Liu remains composed. His hands blur from the speed of his seals.
33:17Just as the massive mountain is about to crush him, dark purple light bursts beneath his feet.
33:23A hidden rune array emerges and swallows him instantly. The mountain misses and crashes toward
33:28the ruins below. At the same time, identical purple arrays appear beneath Han Lee and Liu Le'er.
33:34Purple light engulfs them both. They vanish. They reappear inside a secluded valley within the
33:40Yin Necropolis mountain range. The space is narrow, dark, filled with dense black mist.
33:46Towering rock faces over a thousand feet tall surround the valley. Engraved with ghostly runes,
33:53four large bluestone pillars stand at the corners. Ancient and covered in inscriptions,
33:59purple light flashes and Han Lee and Liu Le'er materialize. Liu Le'er is still protected by the
34:04fiery net formed by the Silver Fire Raven. She sways slightly from teleportation dizziness,
34:10but remains unharmed. Han Lee immediately surveys the surroundings. Grand Elder Liu stands atop one
34:16pillar. On the other three pillars sit a red-dressed woman with mature charm, a one-eyed giant and a
34:23hunchbacked elderly man. All three are body integration cultivators. They open their eyes
34:28in unison. The woman frowns. Didn't you go to handle intruders, Elder Liu? Why bring outsiders here?
34:34There's no time! Activate the earthly ghost soul suppression array. He is a body integration stage
34:40body cultivator! Liu shouts urgently. Without hesitation, all four summon black badges and
34:46toss them downward. Four metallic clangs echo as the badges burrow into the ground around Han Lee.
34:53The earth trembles violently. Thunderous rumbling erupts. Soil churns. Rocks crumble. Four enormous
34:59archways rise from the ground, each five hundred to six hundred feet tall, constructed from pillars
35:05embedded with human and beast bones. Crimson skulls hang from the eaves like wind chimes. Giant ghostly
35:11heads are engraved at the center of each archway. The ghost heads suddenly come alive. Their eyes swivel
35:17toward Han Lee. Crimson light bursts forth, intertwining into a vast sea of churning blood that covers
35:23thousands of feet. Within this sea, immense pressure crashes down on Han Lee. His robes cling tightly to
35:30his body. His movements become sluggish. Blue light flashes in his eyes. Loud cracks and pops echo from
35:37within his body as he resists the pressure. He sways slightly, then steadies himself. Unfazed, the silver
35:44net protecting Liu layer begins to warp under the crushing force. Its upper section caves in, but Han Lee
35:51casts a series of incantation seals, stabilizing it. The woman in red stares in disbelief. How is this
35:57possible? Grand elder Liu's expression darkens. We underestimated him. This array can only trap him
36:04temporarily. But here in devilish flame valley, we can use the ninth heaven. Devilish flames left by
36:10patriarch bone. Flame to refine them. The one-eyed man and the hunchbacked elder nod. All four begin chanting,
36:17forming rapid hand seals. A faint buzzing fills the valley, growing louder. The valley trembles. Rocks
36:23roll down the cliffs. The ghostly runes shine brilliantly. The patterns merge and transform into
36:28black fire lotus formations. The lotus flowers sway. Black flames erupt from their petals, surging endlessly
36:36into the valley. Within moments, the entire valley becomes a sea of black flames, completely engulfing
36:42Han Lee and Liu layer. The black flames filling the valley were unlike ordinary fire. They burned with
36:48terrifying heat, as if the entire valley had been thrown into a furnace. Yet at the same time,
36:54dense, inky black devilish keys spread through the air, giving off a sinister aura that felt suffocating.
37:00Inside this sea of black fire, Han Lee and Liu layer were subjected to unbearable temperatures.
37:05The air around them warped and distorted from the heat. Liu layer's face turned pale as she stared at the
37:12approaching flames, horror filling her eyes. But almost immediately she noticed something unexpected.
37:18The silver net of fire formed by the silver fire. Raven around her began releasing a powerful suction
37:23force. It drew in the surrounding devilish flames and heat, absorbing them continuously. Within several
37:30dozen feet around her, the temperature dropped drastically, forming a cool and refreshing zone.
37:35Her panic eased at once. Han Lee, meanwhile, had no such silver flame protecting him. Yet he stood
37:42calmly within the churning sea of black fire, his expression completely composed. Just as the devilish
37:48flames were about to engulf him, he suddenly opened his mouth and inhaled sharply. In an instant,
37:54the surrounding black flames surged toward him like a frenzied tide. They rushed directly into his mouth.
38:00Within no more than two or three seconds, most of the black fire filling the valley had been devoured.
38:06The four body integration cultivators, watching from the pillars, were so shocked that their eyes nearly
38:12bulged out of their sockets. They immediately stopped their chanting. As their chanting ceased, the black
38:19fire lotus diagrams, on the cliff walls, faded back into their original rune patterns. However, compared to before,
38:26the runes were noticeably dimmer, Han Lee still showed no sign of stopping until every last trace
38:32of black fire had disappeared into him. Only then did he close his mouth and release a loud burp,
38:37looking almost unsatisfied. How can someone devour the ninth heaven devilish flame?
38:43What kind of monster is he? The purple-bearded man's face turned grim.
38:48We can't hold back anymore. Kill him while he's still trapped inside the
38:51Earthly Ghost Soul Suppression Array. If he escapes, the consequences will be catastrophic.
38:56He raised his hand and summoned an antiquated purple-copper lantern about half a foot tall.
39:02Chanting a complex incantation, he rubbed his hands gently. A faint purple flame ignited inside the
39:08lantern. Countless tiny purple runes appeared on its surface and began revolving around it.
39:13Dense purple smoke rose from the lantern, rapidly swelling and transforming into a lifelike giant purple
39:20tiger. The size of a pavilion, it lifted its head, released a silent roar, and lunged at Han Lee with
39:26incredible speed. At the same time, on another pillar, the red-dressed woman began chanting.
39:31A red glow covered her eyes. Her dress billowed despite the lack of wind. Then her body began to
39:37wither visibly. Skin shrank. Flesh dried up. Her nails lengthened and turned black, becoming sinister
39:43claws. The flesh on her face melted away, revealing a living pink skeleton. She swooped down gracefully,
39:50moving at astonishing speed. In a blink, she appeared above Han Lee, leaving after-images in her wake.
39:57Spatial fluctuations erupted above him. A gigantic white bone claw as large as a small mountain emerged
40:03from the air. Its blade-like fingers screeched as they descended toward Han Lee's head. Gray, baleful
40:10ki surging from its palm. Even within the sea of blood projection, the bone claw seemed unaffected.
40:16Han Lee did not move. He casually raised a hand and released the miniature black mountain once more.
40:23It instantly expanded into full size and smashed upward into the descending bone claw. The mountain
40:28exploded into fragments beneath the impact, raining down massive rocks. But the bone claw shattered as
40:35well. The baleful ki dispersed, leaving only bone fragments falling through the air. Before the pink
40:41skeleton could react, a devastating shockwave surged upward from below, sweeping her away like a leaf
40:47in a storm. She flew helplessly, crashing into a mountain face and shattering into scattered bones.
40:54At that moment, the giant purple tiger arrived. It opened its mouth and fired a pillar of purple
40:59light downward with immense force. Han Lee waved his hand casually. The purple light shattered with a
41:05resounding boom. Then he leaped upward, ignoring the intensified gravitational force of the blood sea.
41:12In an instant, he appeared beneath the tiger's belly. With lightning speed, he grabbed the tiger's
41:18head with one hand and seized, one of its hind legs with the other. His arm muscles bulged.
41:23The tiger struggled wildly, but could not escape his grip, just as he was about to tear it apart.
41:29A dull thump echoed from below. Four massive black spears burst from the ground, piercing through the
41:35blood sea and stabbing toward Han Lee's vital points. A loud clang rang out. The spears struck
41:42his body as if hitting steel and were repelled violently. The ground split open. A gigantic black
41:48spider leaped out. It had two rows of white compound eyes and eight spear-like legs. Beneath its
41:54abdomen hung a gray, fleshy pouch. And inside that pouch was the hunchbacked elderly man. The spider
42:01appeared to have grown from the bulge on his back, forming a grotesque sight. The spider crossed its
42:06sharp forelegs, then raised them high. Crimson light radiated from them like a pair of giant red-hot
42:12scissors, snapping toward Han Lee's neck. This time Han Lee retaliated directly. Still holding the purple
42:19tiger. He descended ferociously and swept his right leg horizontally. Boom! The spider's forelegs shattered
42:26instantly. The massive creature was blasted away, crashing into a mountain face and buried under
42:32falling rocks. Han Lee landed and immediately spread his arms, intending to tear the purple tiger apart.
42:38But suddenly the tiger did not split. Instead, it transformed into a massive cloud of purple mist that
42:45enveloped Han Lee entirely. A strange, intoxicating scent filled the air. The mist had the power to
42:51cloud the mind and disorient the senses.
42:54''Brother Rock!'' Liu Lair cried out. Nearby, the pink skeleton had already reassembled and stood
43:00shakily, cackling. ''He-hey, so what if your body is strong?'' Under Elder Liu's soul-corroding ghostly
43:06mist. Before she could finish, a miserable howl echoed from a stone pillar. The purple-bearded man tumbled
43:13down from above, writhing in agony. The purple copper lantern fell beside him. The purple mist
43:20dissipated. Han Lee stood there completely unharmed. With a casual gesture, he drew the fallen purple
43:26copper lantern into his hand, inspected it briefly, and stored it in his storage bag. At the same time,
43:32a translucent thread of spiritual sense shot out from the purple-bearded man's head and flew back
43:39into Han Lee's glabella. Only then did Han Lee look toward the left archway and ask indifferently,
43:45''Have you still not found an opening to attack me?'' As his voice faded, a figure flashed out and
43:50retreated rapidly. It was the one-eyed man, who had not attacked until now. His entire body was encased
43:57in spiky bone armor. In his hand was a translucent crimson axe, clearly a powerful treasure. But after
44:04witnessing Han Lee dominate three-body integration, cultivators effortlessly, he had found no chance
44:10to intervene. He could not remember the last time he had felt so powerless. Han Lee glanced at him
44:15briefly, then ignored him and walked toward one of the archways. Though the sea of blood's pressure
44:20still weighed heavily on him, evident from his tightly pressed robes, he walked steadily, without
44:27struggle. Reaching the archway, he inspected it for a moment. Then he bent his knees, wrapped his arms
44:34around one of the pillars and exerted force. The ground trembled violently. Shock and horror appeared
44:40in the eyes of the giant, ghostly head engraved on the archway. The entire archway swayed and began
44:46rising from the ground. With a final anguished wail, it shrank amid black light and reverted into a black
44:52badge, which fell into Han Lee's hand. The sea of blood shrank significantly. Han Lee stored the badge
44:59and moved to the next archway. By now, the purple-bearded man and the hunchbacked elder had
45:04regained their footing. The red skeleton had returned to human form. All four body integration cultivators
45:11stood silently at the corners of the valley, watching Han Lee uproot the archways one by one.
45:16None of them dared to intervene. They were waiting. Minutes later, after storing the final badge,
45:24Han Lee suddenly raised an eyebrow and turned toward a certain direction. He opened his mouth and
45:29exhaled forcefully. The devilish flames he had devoured earlier erupted into the sky. They converged
45:35into four massive fire clouds, each the size of a wagon wheel. The clouds transformed into four enormous
45:42black pythons, each several dozen feet long. The fiery pythons lunged toward the four. Body
45:48integration cultivators, simultaneously. Alarmed, the four hurriedly summoned defensive treasures and
45:55raised protective barriers to shield themselves from the incoming flames. This episode explain us that
46:01overwhelming strength combined with calm, judgment allows one cultivator to dominate even when surrounded.
46:07It also demonstrates that traps and formations can restrict movement. But true resilience comes from
46:12inner power and composure. Finally, it highlights an important cultivation principle. Underestimating an
46:18opponent, even with superior numbers and preparation, can lead to disastrous consequences. This episode
46:25also demonstrates that true strength is not just about defense or resistance. It is about turning an
46:30opponent's power into your own advantage. It also shows that fear and hesitation in battle can create
46:36openings. While calm dominance can completely suppress even coordinated attacks. Finally, it highlights an
46:43important principle of cultivation. When one's foundation is absolute, even traps and deadly techniques
46:49can become nourishment instead of threats.
46:50That wraps up our chapter explanation of a mortal challenge to immortality, immortal arm. Henry's part
46:58reminds us that God comes gradually and wisdom in decision making is just as vital as strength. Every
47:08challenge he faces shows the value of strategy, passion and learning from experience. If you found this chapter
47:16more insightful, make sure to like, share and stay tuned for the next episode in his journey to immortality.
