Chapter 373: Chapter 194: The Heavenly Immortal’s Backup Plan, The Hidden Danger of the Dragon Eel, A Massive Treasure Chest Explosion!_2

“`

This made Guanhai Taoist dare not act rashly, even with two Emperor Level weapons in his possession, it was very difficult to capture Long Yue and the mysterious great power from the Tongxuan Realm unless he used the Immortal weapon of the Penglai Immortal Sect.

The Immortal weapon of the Penglai Immortal Sect was named the Heavenly Fixing Element Stake, which not only bolstered the sect’s fortunes but also suppressed the objects beneath the Penglai Island. It could not be used lightly; activating the Heavenly Fixing Element Stake was also problematic.

Every time the Heavenly Fixing Element Stake was used, it required the consumption of endless resources, and with the current foundation of the Penglai Immortal Sect, they could only fully revive the Heavenly Fixing Element Stake twice. Each use also required resources to be prepared in advance.

Upon seeing Long Yue and Han Li appear, Guanhai Taoist knew the plan had changed. To be safe, he brought the two Emperor Level weapons that the Penglai Immortal Sect had, but still, they were inadequate.

The two Emperor Level weapons of the Penglai Immortal Sect, the Primordial Clock was a Supreme Emperor Level weapon, and the Dragon Binding Rope was a Top Grade Emperor Level weapon, both possessing tremendous power. Another person would have long been suppressed by Guanhai Taoist.

But he encountered Han Li, this mysteriously powerful being from the Tongxuan Realm who gave Guanhai Taoist a great amount of trouble.

The opponent possessed a Supreme Emperor Level weapon related to the void, which was also in a continuous state of full revival, ready to spring into action. Even if he fully revived the Primordial Clock and the Dragon Binding Rope, it was very difficult to detain Han Li and Long Yue.

In the end, Guanhai Taoist compromised and changed the plan; otherwise, if he acted, the loss would be greater.

Being unable to suppress Han Li and Long Yue meant that it would be extremely difficult to have the Dragon Maiden merge with the Rainbow Dragon Minnow in the future, and they would become deadly enemies with this mysterious power from the Tongxuan Realm with a Supreme Emperor Level weapon, not to mention the countless resources the Penglai Immortal Sect would spend.

Allowing two Emperor Level weapons to fully revive was a process that consumed endless resources. Guanhai Taoist was not the master of the Emperor Level weapons; the spirits of the Emperor Level weapons would not fight for him on their own initiative.

However, Guanhai Taoist astutely discovered that the mysterious great power from the Tongxuan Realm seemed to be the owner of that Supreme Emperor Level weapon, which allowed the weapon to actively fully revive.

When Emperor Level weapons self-revive, they consume their own accumulated energy. In the current state of Qianyuan Divine Province where Spiritual Energy is sparse, for Emperor Level weapons to replenish energy by absorbing the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth would take a very long time. Thus, the spirits of the Emperor Level weapons at each Sacred Land were unwilling to revive by themselves, preferring the Sacred Lands to offer more energy in sacrifice instead.

Emperor Level weapons can draw their energy from many sources, such as Spirit Stones, Spirit Crystals, Spirit Sources, higher-level spiritual energy, Immortal Qi, and other naturally occurring treasures containing immense power.

“I hope they haven’t noticed,” Guanhai Taoist thought silently.

If they hadn’t noticed, the Dragon Maiden would merge with the Rainbow Dragon Minnow and would still have the Penglai Immortal Sect in her heart, automatically returning to the Penglai Immortal Sect. The old Heavenly Immortal’s scheming wouldn’t have failed.

If they had noticed, then it would be considered as giving the Dragon Maiden a great opportunity and forming a good relationship; moreover, he also proposed that condition as a form of indirect compensation.

Chengsheng Mountain, Chengdao Peak.

Han Li and Long Yue stood there, with Long Yue wearing a smile, everything on this trip had gone fairly smoothly.

Ever since her reincarnation, she had sensed something drawing her from the direction of the East Sea. Over the years, Long Yue had already investigated clearly, though she didn’t know it was the Rainbow Dragon Minnow, she knew it was at the Penglai Immortal Sect.

She had originally planned to wait until she cultivated to the Tongxuan Realm, became powerful, and retrieved her past life’s Quasi Emperor weapon before considering retrieving that thing from the Penglai Immortal Sect.

Now that she had her husband, she moved her plan forward, as her husband was a great power from the Tongxuan Realm with an Emperor Level weapon, which gave her great confidence in retrieving that item.

Although they were tricked by the Penglai Immortal Sect’s Guanhai Taoist, they finally got the Rainbow Dragon Minnow back. She would rise again in this life, and with her husband’s assistance, she would enter an unprecedented realm.

“Husband, once I merge with this Rainbow Dragon Minnow, my origin will increase manyfold. In a short period, I will break into the Divine Yuan Realm.”

“When our child is born, it’s very likely they will inherit my physique, and they will achieve greatness in the future.”

Snuggled in her husband’s arms, Long Yue looked at the Rainbow Dragon Minnow swimming in her jade hand, her eyes shining with excitement and her expression animated.

After carefully examining the Rainbow Dragon Minnow, Han Li frowned and said gravely, “Yue’er, don’t be too hasty to merge with it.”

“Hmm?” Long Yue’s voice halted, and she looked up at her husband.

“There seems to be something wrong with this Rainbow Dragon Minnow,” Han Li explained.

Long Yue suddenly employed a secret technique, her eyes emitting divine light to shine upon the Rainbow Dragon Minnow, scanning it several times.

“Husband, I haven’t identified any problems,” Long Yue said with a frown.

She knew that her husband would never speak without reason; if he said so, there must be a cause. Could it be that the Rainbow Dragon Minnow concealed a threat too deeply hidden?

“Let me have a closer look.”

Han Li nodded slightly, and a torrent of Primordial Spirit light poured into his eyes as he looked at the Rainbow Dragon Minnow, but he didn’t discover anything obvious.

Han Li’s brow furrowed slightly. With a thought, he activated his Divine Sense and looked again at the Rainbow Dragon Minnow, whereupon he immediately spotted a few clues.

“`

“As expected.”

Han Li snorted coldly and waved his hand, causing the Void Bell to appear, with Zi Yi materializing by his side.

“Zi Yi, take a look at this seven-colored dragon fish.”

Han Li patted the little loli Zi Yi’s head, instructing her.

“Okay, Master~”

Zi Yi harnessed the power of the Void Bell, and a ray of Emperor’s Light shone upon the seven-colored dragon fish.

Long Yue’s pupils contracted at this sight; she knew her husband possessed an Emperor Level weapon, but she had never seen it until now.

She also felt a great sense of relief in her heart. Her husband even let her see this, showing his sincere affection for her. All that had happened during this time had allowed Long Yue to feel the sincerity of Han Li’s feelings.

After checking several times, Zi Yi reported, “Master, there is indeed a problem with this seven-colored dragon fish.”

Following that, Zi Yi listed out the hidden dangers one by one, causing both Han Li and Long Yue to frown deeply.

“Alright, Zi Yi, you can go back to playing now.”

Having finished speaking, Han Li reached out and touched his beloved wife Long Yue’s jade-white and lovely face, sighing, “We nearly fell for that old Taoist’s scheme.”

Long Yue wholeheartedly nodded, her face reflecting her fear.

The hidden dangers were too great, with even Heavenly Immortal traps laid down that Zi Yi could only vaguely sense.

After some thought, Han Li said, “Yue’er, don’t rush to refine the seven-colored dragon fish. Wait a few more years.”

In a few years, he might obtain an Immortal weapon. By then, if he let the Artifact Spirit of the Immortal weapon take action, it could possibly eliminate all the hidden dangers within the seven-colored dragon fish. The Heavenly Immortal ancestor of the Penglai Immortal Sect had long passed away, so any attempt at a counterattack would be futile.

“Okay.”

Long Yue nodded, suppressing her desire for the seven-colored dragon fish. After hesitating for a while, she handed the seven-colored dragon fish to Han Li.

“Husband, please keep the seven-colored dragon fish with you for the time being.”

The allure of the seven-colored dragon fish was too great for her, and she truly feared that one day she might not be able to resist. If she were to then refine and merge with the seven-colored dragon fish, the trouble would be considerable; she did not wish to serve the Penglai Immortal Sect as a dog.

After all, the Penglai Immortal Sect was her enemy, as the Great Saint who had slain her in the past might very well have come from the Penglai Immortal Sect.

“Then husband shall keep it safe for Yue’er for a few years.”

Han Li casually stored the seven-colored dragon fish into the System Space, dropping it into a pond he created with a mere thought.

He planned to find time to deal with the seven-colored dragon fish, whether to place it in the Secret Realm of Chengsheng Mountain or on Zaidao Peak, he would decide later.

After being affectionate on Chengdao Peak, Long Yue left; she still had to undergo closed-door cultivation to refine the items she had retrieved from the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Han Li had intended to open this month’s treasure chest when witnessing the dragon shedding its armor, but with Long Yue going into seclusion, he would have to find someone else.

After some consideration, Han Li decided to try a new trick.

Soon, after reluctantly bidding farewell, Han Li enjoyed the starry night with tender, loving care. Then, expending five years of his cultivation, he opened this month’s treasure chest.

On the panel that only he could see, a flash of golden light passed by, followed by a system notification sound in Han Li’s mind.

“Ding~ Congratulations, Master, for obtaining a treasure from the chest: Emperor Level Lower Grade[Dragon Vein]!”

Upon hearing this, Han Li’s pupils contracted, and his face was unable to hide the sheer joy, which stirred him to greater passion.

This time, he had actually obtained a Dragon Vein!

And it was an Emperor Level Lower Grade one at that!
