A Record of a Mortal s Journey to Immortality

Chapter 845: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 842: Double Head Four Arms Chapter 845: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 842: Double Head Four Arms “Judging by your tone, it seems like you’ve seen it with your own eyes.

Haven’t you never entered Devilfall Valley before?” Han Li was curious and asked another question deliberately.

“Hmph, just because I haven’t seen it doesn’t mean I haven’t heard about it.

Some friends of mine who entered the valley back then, although their divine skills were far inferior to mine, were not ordinary cultivators either.

Yet, despite joining forces, only one of them barely managed to escape with his life.

This shows just how formidable the ancient devilish techniques are,” Monarch Great Development snorted, his tone carrying a hint of caution.

Han Li chuckled upon hearing this and was about to ask more questions when a painful roar suddenly erupted from the black qi fleeing in the distance.

Following that, a tornado suddenly stirred up within the murky demonic Qi, dispersing it and revealing ‘Marquis Nanlong’ within.

Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu and the woman in white changed their expressions drastically upon clearly seeing the figure, and they involuntarily gasped in shock.

Is this still a human?

The ‘Marquis Nanlong’ in front of them had completely transformed into a monstrous creature with two heads and four arms.

One neck was in front, another at the back, one big and one small, each bearing a ferocious head, while the shoulders sprouted four abnormally long arms that extended beyond the knees.

The front head displayed patches of purple scales across the face, and a white horn several inches long emerged from the forehead.

In terms of eyebrows, eyes, nose, and size, it was still recognizable as the original head.

However, right behind this head, a smaller head had forcibly squeezed its way out, looking entirely like a demon ghost.

Although similarly bearing horns and scales on the cheeks, the middle of this face was ghastly green with sharp teeth, and the black lips opened and closed, a long spiky purple and red tongue, covered in barbs, darting out nearly a foot in length before swiftly retracting, akin to a venomous snake.

What chilled the heart even more was that the pupil in the eyes of this head was narrow as a slit, shining with a silvery white cold light, and the eyeballs moved without a hint of emotion, clearly not something humanlike.

Not just the heads, but below the neck, the body and all four long arms were also covered in deep purple scales, densely packed and impenetrable to rain or wind.

The fingertips had grown sharp claw-like nails, which, opening and closing, shined with a silvery white glow, appearing extremely sharp.

Seeing this terrifying appearance that sent shivers down the spine, although Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu and the woman in white felt a chill in their hearts, as long-time Nascent Soul cultivators, they were not easily frightened.

Seeing ‘Marquis Nanlong’ reveal himself and stand still, they simultaneously commanded their treasures to attack.

A five-colored light pillar flashed, enveloping ‘Marquis Nanlong’ within it instantly.

Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu was overjoyed inside, and seizing this opportunity, a white giant ring followed closely behind, descending swiftly.

The demon soul’s frontal head remained expressionless, resembling that of a dead person, but the rear head suddenly grinned, the corners of its mouth revealing a mocking sneer.

As the giant ring flashed and appeared abruptly above the head, descending swiftly, the figure within the five-colored light column waved its four arms gracefully, and suddenly, the four demonic hands radiating with purple light, astonishingly seized the giant ring firmly, their movements showing no hint of hesitation.

Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu was startled by this, but quickly urged his incantations more urgently.

The ring radiated light in all directions, trembling violently as if trying to break free, but the four large hands, as if cast from iron, did not budge at all.

The rear head of the demon soul even sneered aloud, suddenly opening its mouth and spraying out a jet of pitch-black liquid that struck the giant ring accurately.

The ancient treasure, originally flickering with spiritual light, let out a mournful cry as its light dispersed, and it immediately turned black as ink, starting to flicker with a strange dark glow.

“My Myriad Sun Ring?” Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu cried out in shock.

The moment the color of the ring changed, he suddenly lost the spiritual connection with the ancient treasure, his face turning pale as if drained of blood.

It was unbelievable that this demon soul had a way to corrupt ancient treasures and seize them for its own use.

At that moment, three of the demon soul’s four demonic hands released the ring, leaving only one hand grasping the object and gently waving it a few times, causing layers of ring mirages to appear.

Satisfaction was evident on both heads.

“Not bad, not bad!

I was just worrying that I had too few usable treasures at hand, this one is quite suitable,” the demon soul’s front head spoke articulately.

At the same time, the other three arms reached towards its body and with another flash of light, two more items appeared in its hands-a black flag and a small sword emitting a dark glow.

The final hand remained empty.

“Hehe!

Although I can presently demonize only a few of your cultivators’ treasures, these few are enough to manage for a while,” the demon soul sinisterly chuckled.

Meanwhile, Han Li, who had been distracted establishing a formation, saw his golden arc and fireball slow down, falling significantly behind.

As for the swarm of Gold Devouring Beetles, although they had initially followed without issue, the sight of the demon soul’s two heads and four arms seemed to instill some fear in them, causing them to merely hover in place, circling continuously.

Han Li was startled.

Through the mental connection, he naturally felt the beetles’ instinctive fear, stirring a whirl of suspicion in his mind.

Moreover, upon seeing the demon use the double head and four arms technique, he immediately recalled the images from The Sacred Provenance Plate and the statue of the six-armed demon in Master Cang Kun’s abode, wondering about the relationship among the three.

The flag in the hands of the demon soul was actually the ancient Wind Flag Treasure used by the elderly Lu to command raging winds, and the small sword also looked very familiar.

After a moment’s thought, he realized that the object was one of the treasures from the ancient cultivator’s remains.

Unbelievably, all of them had been corrupted by the demon soul for its use.

Regardless of what connections there were, now was not the time to probe these details.

He had to provoke this demon, drawing it into the Aureate Sword Formation.

Thinking of this, Han Li’s expression darkened, and he suddenly urged on the Gold Devouring Beetles, while the Devilbane Lightning and the Purple Fireball also sped up and lunged towards the demon.

Seeing this, the Demon Soul let out a haunting, undulating laugh from its two heads and suddenly blurred at the neck, the heads unexpectedly swapping places.

The front head moved backward, and the Malevolent Ghost’s Skull came forward, continuously sticking out its purplish-red tongue, exuding extreme eeriness.

After transforming, the Demon Soul stared coldly at Han Li’s aggressive attack, clearly having no intention of evading.

It waved its four arms lightly, raising the three treasures in its hands high, and suddenly the small grey sword, the spell flags, and the ring all emitted a dazzling black light.

It looked like there was to be another fierce battle between Han Li and this ancient demon spirit.

But just then, a thunderous roar, like startling thunder, rumbled from afar.

The roar was immense, rolling in like violent thunder from a distant place.

It seemed the owner of the voice was furiously enraged, acting wildly.

Even the Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu and others, despite being so far away, couldn’t help but feel a jolt in their hearts and showed expressions of shock upon hearing it.

Han Li was slightly taken aback by this astonishing roar, while both heads of the opposing Demon Soul turned pale simultaneously.

It abruptly gathered its treasures, transformed into a streak of black light without a second thought, and flew away.

Simultaneously, it emitted a long, echoing cry, quickly disappearing into the distance like a bolt of lightning.

From the direction it fled, it was exactly where the roaring had occurred.

Han Li first was astounded, then after a slight hesitation, he pointed with his finger, stopping the golden lightning, Purple Apex Flames, and the swarm of beetiles, then squinted his eyes and watched the Demon Soul, which had turned into a black dot, his expression turning somewhat uncertain.

If he remembered correctly, the place where the roar occurred was exactly where the astonishing wave of energy had erupted not long ago, which was also marked on the map of Devilfall Valley.

Could it be that something shocking truly happened there?

However, considering the Demon Soul’s hasty departure and its echoing roar, could there be another ancient demon there?

Han Li quickly ran through all possibilities, his expression deep in contemplation, standing motionless on the spot.

Seeing the Demon Soul suddenly turn around and fly off into the distance, both the white-clothed woman and Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu felt a great relief, their expressions easing slightly.

The white-clothed woman, although deeply relying on the treasure “Light Stasis Mirror” she possessed, felt continuously uneasy about the transformed ‘Marquis Nanlong’.

As for Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu, though he regretted the loss of a treasure, he felt fortunate to have preserved his life.

Had he not encountered Han Li here by chance, the outcome for him and the Great Elders of the Masked Moon Sect would likely have been very grim.

One of the fellow cultivators who had entered the valley with them had been unprepared and was killed by ‘Marquis Nanlong’ extracting his Nascent Soul.

Seeing the Demon Soul really escaping far and unlikely to return, Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu and the white-clothed woman exchanged glances before finally approaching Han Li.

Having witnessed Han Li’s astonishing Divine Skills just now, both of them certainly couldn’t just fly off without saying a word.

“Fellow Daoist Han, this time I truly must thank you for saving my life.

Otherwise, this old man would not have escaped this calamity,” Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu said politely, bowing his hands.

Meanwhile, his gaze shifted and he couldn’t help but eye the motionless Tiger Demon Puppet and the Yin Yang Devil Corpse exuding a chilling aura beside Han Li, secretly sighing and feeling a touch of envy.

Being so young yet possessing so many treasures and Divine Skills, his future cultivation path was truly boundless!

It seems that initially striking a deal to assist Yellow Maple Valley was indeed the right decision.

As long as he is willing to help, Yellow Maple Valley, despite facing great calamities, should still be able to protect itself for a millennium.

As for Nangong Wan’s senior sister, despite having unpleasant past events with Han Li, she now could only manage a forced smile and similarly said:
“I too, thank the Fellow Daoist greatly!” The white-clothed woman still had some reservations, her voice a bit cold.

As for seeking revenge against Han Li, after witnessing Han Li’s current Divine Skills, the woman had completely abandoned such thoughts.

“It’s not about saving lives; I was just defending myself.

Now, what are the two fellow Daoists planning to do next?

Are you interested in following to see what’s happening there?” Han Li calmly raised his hand, summoned back the golden lightning, and other items, either storing them inside his body or in his sleeves, before speaking unhurriedly.

“Fellow Daoist Han jokes.

That creature is exceedingly dangerous; only late Nascent Soul cultivators could handle it.

How could we possibly follow it?” Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu thoughtlessly shook his head in quick succession.

The white-clothed woman didn’t speak, but the expression on her face agreed deeply.

“In that case, let’s leave it then.

Although I am curious, it would be rash to go alone.

I shall part ways here with the two of you.” Han Li felt a bit regretful.

If the two late Nascent Soul cultivators were willing to accompany him, he would indeed like to see what was happening in that distant place.

But alone, he decided not to take the risk.

Thinking this, he didn’t wait for an answer from the pair opposite him, raised his head, and looked once more in the direction of the still roaring sound.

However, he only looked into the distance for a moment before suddenly his expression changed, becoming grave.

“What happened?” Seeing Han Li’s expression, Venerable Ancestor Ling Hu’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, turning his head to look as well.
