A Record of a Mortal s Journey to Immortality

Chapter 1138: Volume 7 Across the Human World Chapter 1134: The Bewilderment of Reincarnation
 

Han Li’s shout startled the couple, Wen Siyue. Before they could ask what had happened, they saw Han Li suddenly point a glowing finger gently at the red mole in the young girl’s palm.

Suddenly, a small burst of green light flashed and disappeared into the palm without a trace.

Wen Siyue and her partner were utterly confused, yet they dared not interrupt Han Li’s spellcasting.

An incredible scene soon unfolded!

After the green light vanished, the red mole turned a deeper red and began to stretch and transform, gradually evolving into a vivid, blood-red dragon mark in the palm, seemingly coming to life.

“Just as I thought!” Han Li muttered, his gaze towards this Tian Qin’er becoming even more peculiar.

“Senior Han, my daughter…” Seeing this, Wen Siyue’s heart leapt, her face inevitably showing worry.

“It’s nothing. I’ve just discovered the reason for the peculiar toxicity within your beloved’s body. You said earlier she was bitten by an unknown poisonous insect, which caused her current state,” said Han Li, exhaling lightly.

“Indeed, my daughter was poisoned because of that. But we tried the poison ourselves, and although it’s difficult to drive out, it shouldn’t leave someone as helpless as she is now,” Wen Siyue replied urgently, a chill running through her heart.

“Hehe, naturally. That poison is merely a contributing factor to her current symptoms; what truly endangers her life is her Dragon’s Cry Physique! A girl with a physique typically found in males, combined with the intense poison of the insect, which is likely a Yang type treasure, has caused her current state! Even without the poisoning incident, the vitality inside her would gradually wither, and she would not live past forty,” Han Li explained calmly, pointing to the red dragon mark in the palm.

“Dragon’s Cry Physique! Impossible, my husband and I personally checked her when she was born and found nothing unusual,” Wen Siyue’s face turned pale in an instant.

“Her Dragon’s Cry Physique is very rare, a recessive trait. Without external stimulus or later self-activation, it is indeed hard to detect. Those with this physique cultivate quickly, but as cultivation accelerates, the balance of Yin and Yang energies within the body will gradually destabilize, ultimately leading to death before reaching the Foundation Establishment,” Han Li explained calmly.

“So you’re saying even if she completely rids herself of this poison, she can’t continue cultivating!”

Wen Siyue panicked, and the expression on Mr. Tian’s face also turned ugly.

“Let’s talk about other things later, first I’ll help her detoxify. You two leave the room for a while, and come back in when I call you,” Han Li commanded unapologetically.

“Yes!” With no room for objection, Wen Siyue and her husband had no choice but to leave.

Seeing this, the girl showed a hint of unease for the first time. However, Han Li didn’t turn around, instead his robe suddenly fluttered.

With a flash of blue luminescence, Tian Qin’er immediately felt dizzy, and then knew no more, collapsing onto the bed.

Han Li then turned around, sizing up the girl once more, seemingly trying to discern something from her.

“The same essence, the same female body with a Dragon’s Cry Physique, and knowledgeable in the Dao of Formations… Is this really just a coincidence, or could there really be such wonders in the world as the reincarnation of souls without loss of spirit!” After a while, Han Li sighed lightly, murmuring to himself.

Suddenly, he clasped his hands and swiftly separated them, and between his fingers appeared a dozen slender silver needles, shimmering brightly.

With a flick of Han Li’s hand, “Puff puff” sounds were heard.

The silver needles shot out, striking precisely into various parts of the girl’s body, and disappeared in a blink, leaving no trace.

Then, Han Li’s hands performed incantations, his fingers bizarrely flickering nonstop, shooting out incantations of different colors from his fingertips, instantly forming a five-colored matrix of light that enveloped the girl below…

Outside the wooden cabin was a small courtyard resembling a triple-section compound, where Wen Siyue and the Tian Sect cultivator stood, continually casting anxious glances towards the firmly closed wooden door.

It seemed the couple genuinely adored their only daughter…

The four Foundation Establishment disciples stood there as well, hardly daring to breathe.

The inside of the cabin was completely silent, unnaturally hushed.

This caused the scholarly-looking man’s anxiety to deepen on his face!

Nevertheless, despite this, he dared not communicate with Wen Siyue using their sect’s sound transmission technique, knowing well how powerful a late Nascent Soul cultivator’s spiritual sense was, and that transmitting voice would not escape Han Li’s notice. A careless word might provoke him, which could be deeply regrettable.

Just when the Tian Sect cultivator’s anxiety was burning, suddenly he heard Han Li’s faint voice.

“All right, you may come in now.”

Upon hearing this sound, the refined young man felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and hurriedly strode towards the door, while also glancing over at Wen Siyue.

The beautiful young wife also wore a joyful expression, seemingly having received the same transmitted message. Right then, he no longer hesitated, pushed open the door, and walked in.

Wen Siyue followed closely behind.

Han Li remained seated in his chair, his head bowed as he looked at the fist-sized green flame in his hands, entwined with several strands of black threads twisting unpredictably as if alive. The young girl lay motionless on the bed, deeply asleep and looking very sweet. The room was filled with a faint, strange fragrance, yet it was extremely subtle.

“Elder Han Li, my daughter…”

“I have administered a Dream Returning Pill to her. Both of you can go over and see for yourselves!” Han Li waved his hand to interrupt Wen Siyue’s query, stood up, and walked away from the wooden bed.

Upon hearing this from Han Li, Wen Siyue instantly felt a great relief, continuously uttering thanks before rushing to the bedside with the man surnamed Tian to carefully check the young girl’s condition.

Han Li then toyed with the orb of light in his hands as he slowly stepped out of the doorway and into the courtyard.

The four Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the door were startled when they saw Han Li come out, and approached him with fear and trepidation to offer their respect.

With a casual wave of his hand, Han Li let them be. He then walked a few steps to a corner of the courtyard and looked at the green orb in his hands, suddenly rubbing his hands together.

Immediately, a burst of gold radiance shone between his hands while the rumbling of thunder sounded.

The green orb merely flickered a few times, and along with the black threads inside, was turned by the golden light into a wisp of green smoke that slowly dissipated in the air.

A putrid smell spread out, nauseating to anyone who smelt it!

Han Li frowned and then waved his sleeve, creating a sudden gust of wind that instantly blew the fetid smell away without a trace.

Only then did he place his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky with squinted eyes, his face expressionless as if pondering over something.

After what seemed like a long time, footsteps approached from behind.

Han Li didn’t turn around, but spoke faintly:

“Although I have expelled most of the poison from her body, you should still look for the inner core of an Egret Fish Demon and have her consume it directly. That way, even if there are still some residual toxins, they will be completely cleared.”

“Thank you so much, Senior. In my next life, I will surely return this immense favor by being at your service as a beast of burden,” said the person coming lightly from behind, the beautiful young woman, Wen Siyue.

“Next life? Do you really think we cultivators believe in reincarnation?” Han Li’s tone was somewhat peculiar, mixed with a bit of self-mockery.

“What does Senior mean by that…” Wen Siyue, upon hearing this, paused in surprise and confusion, obviously unclear about Han Li’s intention.

“Forget it, it was just a casual remark. Let me just remind you. Although your beloved is now safe, and I have infused some Profound Yin Spiritual Power into her body to temporarily suppress the backlash from the Dragon’s Cry Physique. However, that’s only a temporary measure. If she does not continue her cultivation and with some medicinal pills, she could live as long as a normal human without life-threatening issues. But if she continues the Cultivation Method, once the Yang type energy inside her body strengthens slightly, my infused Spiritual Power will lose its balancing effect, and the backlash will start again. Do you understand?” Han Li finally turned his head, seriously advising her.

“Is there truly no way to eliminate the effects of the Dragon’s Cry Physique? I beseech Senior to guide me further! I can’t bear to see my little girl only live for just over a hundred years!” Wen Siyue’s face was somewhat pale as she deeply bowed to Han Li.

“It’s not that there are no ways, but I’m afraid it’s difficult for you to accomplish,” this time, Han Li did not stop Wen Siyue’s deep bow, but spoke calmly.

“As long as it allows my daughter to step onto the path of cultivation, I am willing to risk my life to achieve it,” Wen Siyue said firmly, raising her beautiful face.

“This is not something that a mere Core Formation cultivator can solve. It would be more feasible for a Nascent Soul cultivator. Actually, it is quite simple; if you can have a Nascent Soul cultivator infuse a stream of ghostly aura into her body periodically to balance the outburst of the Yang energy, she can naturally continue the Cultivation Method. However, this must involve a Nascent Soul cultivator who can be called upon at any time, or she must constantly follow a Nascent Soul cultivator. Of course, the supporting medicinal pills must also be taken in large amounts, and as the mana inside her body enhances, the medicinal pills naturally become more precious. I’m afraid that once Foundation Establishment is successful, you mere Core Formation cultivators won’t be able to supply it for long.” Han Li, perhaps moved by Wen Siyue’s deep maternal love, softened his expression and did not hide the information.

“To have a Nascent Soul cultivator available at a moment’s call!” Wen Siyue looked devastated.

From the moment Han Li mentioned this method, her heart sank. Even with her Deep parental love, she knew it was impossible.

Not to mention whether they could convince a Nascent Soul cultivator to act, even if someone was willing to help a few times, how could it be possible to have them serve two Core Formation cultivators for a long duration? As for following a Nascent Soul cultivator, that was also far beyond reach.

After all, disciples accepted by Nascent Soul cultivators are basically at the Core Formation Stage, of course, if Tang Qin’er’s beauty was exceptional and her Spiritual root potential was a rare occurrence in a thousand years, it wouldn’t be hopeless to apprentice under a Nascent Soul cultivator. But with her current appearance and cultivation physique, how could one expect a Nascent Soul cultivator to take interest.

After a moment’s thought, Wen Siyue was utterly despaired!
