Han Yi frowned, suddenly thinking of something.
“If the Taixu Order fragment has already been swallowed and bound to the divine soul, can it still be taken out?”
Zuo Lie’s face suddenly stiffened.
“Daoist Han, you have quite a idea. Normally, once someone uses a Taixu Order fragment to increase their comprehension, how could they possibly spit it back out?
“This question… I’ve never really thought about it myself. However, if we ask the witch, we should find out.”
That’s right, what Han Yi had just thought of was extracting the Taixu Order fragment from his Divine Soul.
Comprehension?
What did he need comprehension for? The Proficiency Panel would give him comprehension, and it could be infinitely improved.
If it’s based strictly on comprehension, Han Yi believed that with the help of the Proficiency Panel, no one in the Cultivation World could compare to him.
This was his self-confidence, and also his confidence in the Proficiency Panel.
If it could be extracted, he would definitely do so.
Then, he would bring a storage bag inside, and try to snatch up the Taixu Order fragments to purchase spiritual items that could enhance his root bones.
Moreover, once he leaves the Taixu Illusionary Realm, he could sell the Facing Reality Imprint. This one imprint is absolutely priceless, or perhaps he could keep it for himself, and snatch up another spot the next time he comes.
Actually, if the witch could extract the Taixu Order fragment, Han Yi had also considered selling it to the witch in exchange for spiritual items to enhance his root bones, which he could then entrust to an acquaintance to bring out of the Cave Heaven.
For instance, An Xin from the Azure Dragon Peak who he met earlier in the Seven Cang Tribes. During the fight, Han Yi saw that he had brought in a magic tool. He suspected that An Xin had somehow brought his storage bag inside too.
In this case, if Han Yi entrusted the spiritual items to him, then once they left the Cave Heaven world and returned to the Yu Heng World, he could get the items back from him.
He had only considered this method for a moment before discarding it.
In the face of such earth-shattering spiritual items, human nature is difficult to resist.
So, Han Yi was left with two choices: either use the Taixu Order fragment to directly improve his comprehension, or somehow obtain a storage bag, and then follow through with other plans.
Since comprehension was of no use to him, he naturally chose the second option.
Observing Han Yi’s changing expression, Zuo Lie’s gaze suddenly shifted.
“Daoist Han, don’t tell me you actually managed to snatch a Taixu Order?”
Of course, the look in his eyes wasn’t dangerous, but rather, it was filled with shock.
You said you’re at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation with strong skills and proficient in body techniques, running faster than me. Fine, I’ll accept that. But you also said you snatched a fragment? Is there any justice left in this world?
“Let’s go find the witch. Once we do, you’ll find out.”
Han Yi didn’t hesitate for a moment and quickly ran towards the stone house where the witch resided.
Arriving at the stone house, Han Yi saw several cultivators waiting. When they saw Han Yi, their faces were cold and indifferent, but when they saw Zuo Lie following him, their expressions changed, and they nodded in greeting.
Han Yi showed no emotion and found a place to sit cross-legged while waiting.
After half an hour, people emerged from the house one after another, with varying expressions of joy, regret, or excitement, but there were no violent incidents.
“Daoist Zuo, I wonder how powerful the tribal witch actually is. Why hasn’t anyone tried to forcefully snatch their items?” Han Yi’s eyes flickered with a dangerous light.
If he could, he would definitely take action to seize both the Facing Reality Imprint and the spiritual items that could improve his root bones.
However, looking at the cultivators outside the stone house, they were lining up without any intention of using force. Moreover, if force was truly an option, these witches from the original tribes would have long been exterminated.
Upon hearing Han Yi’s words, Zuo Lie’s face changed.
“Daoist Han, you must not do something foolish! Absolutely not!”
“One of the rules of the Facing Reality Heavenly Realm is that the descendents can trade with the original tribes, but conflict is not allowed. Once a conflict occurs, a cultivator’s Facing Reality Imprint will shatter, their divine soul will return to the Taixu Illusionary Realm, and the Imprint inside the Taixu Illusionary Realm will disappear without a trace.”
“This would be the outcome of self-destruction.”
Before now, Han Yi had always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this Cave Heaven World.
This familiarity grew stronger and stronger until this moment when Zuo Lie explained why conflicts with witches were forbidden, and it finally surfaced.
Han Yi suddenly realized.
The mechanism of this Cave Heaven World was very similar to the online games he played in his previous life.
The cultivators, or descendents, were like players.
Primitive tribes and different races are NPCs, the Taixu beams are treasure chests. When treasure chests appear, everyone pushes and breaks them. Once they burst open, revealing valuable items like Taixu Order fragments, numerous players scramble to take them. After grabbing the items, they can upgrade their own comprehension and trade with NPCs.
If you beat up NPCs, you’ll be announced to the entire server and might even have your account canceled.
Isn’t this a typical online game mode?
Han Yi began to suspect that the powerful figure who transformed this Cave Heaven world, Yujing Mountain, came from another time and place just like him.
In a short while, it was Han Yi’s turn. Zuo Lie accompanied him in, and Han Yi didn’t mind.
Seeing the Witch God, Han Yi found that although his face looked old, he had a smile on his lips. Han Yi was very familiar with this kind of smile. It reminded him of He Fangwei’s smile from the Nine Dragons Shop – the smile of a merchant.
Before Han Yi could speak, the Witch God stared at him with a slight fire in his eyes, which quickly turned into regret.
“What a waste, such a waste. A large chunk of Origin Qi has been ruined. Unbelievable.”
Han Yi wasn’t angry, and at this point, he only saw the Witch God as an NPC.
“Witch God, I want to extract the Taixu Order fragment from my Divine Soul and exchange it with you for a piece of Origin Qi.”
Zuo Lie, who was standing next to Han Yi, couldn’t stop the envy in his eyes. When Han Yi went straight to this place, Zuo Lie knew that Han Yi must have gotten the Taixu Order fragment.
He didn’t know whether it was good luck or skill, but Zuo Lie guessed it was the latter. At that time, Han Yi’s speed surpassed his own, penetrating into the core area. If his strength had been inferior, he would have been killed long ago instead of obtaining the Taixu Order fragment.
Now, he found this Daoist even more incomprehensible.
Coming from an ordinary Golden Core Stage Alchemy Sect in Shu State, he had only reached the eighth level of Qi Cultivation. His knowledge about the rules of the Cave Heaven world was quite lacking. Yet he had incredible speed, even faster than one at the Qi Cultivation Peak. His strength was unknown, but he was clearly not weaker than Zuo Lie. He didn’t care about comprehension, but paid great attention to spiritual items that could enhance his constitution.
Having all these traits made a person enigmatic and hard to figure out.
The Witch God did not immediately agree to Han Yi’s request. Instead, he formed a hand seal and began mumbling nonstop. After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, his eyes suddenly flew open.
Golden light flashed in his ancient pupils.
“The Witch God says it can be done.”
Han Yi’s face lit up with joy upon hearing this.
Next, the Witch God stood up shakily, took out a disc-shaped stone tool, and approached Han Yi. He pressed the stone tool against Han Yi’s forehead. Han Yi had nothing to fear, acting as if the Witch God was just an NPC. There was nothing to be afraid of, considering he wouldn’t die.
After more mumbling, just when Han Yi thought there would be some more magical ceremony, the Witch God took back the stone tool. Joy emerged on his withered face.
“Good, good.”
Then, he put the stone tool away and took out a stone box from under his feet. With a heartache, he opened the box and took out a gray stone the size of a goose egg, handing it to Han Yi.
“How do I use it?” Han Yi asked, taking the stone. The stone was extremely light and didn’t even have a temperature. Had he not seen it himself, Han Yi would not be able to detect the stone’s existence through touch alone.
He looked at the Witch God, who closed his eyes as if he couldn’t bear to see his treasure being used. Han Yi turned to Zuo Lie, but Zuo Lie shook his head, indicating that he was also encountering this situation for the first time.
“Press it against your forehead,” the Witch God’s voice came.
Without hesitation, Han Yi pressed the stone against his forehead. As soon as the tangible stone touched him, it melted like a drop of water into a lake, vanishing without a trace or making any waves.
Han Yi let go of his hand and didn’t feel any change.
“You may leave now. Next person.”
Han Yi wasn’t angry. What was there to be angry about with an NPC?
He pulled back the curtain and walked out of the stone house, with Zuo Lie following behind.
“I see now. The Facing Reality Imprint is bound to my Divine Soul, so I can’t sense the change in the depths of my Divine Soul through my Qi Cultivation while I’m in this Cave Heaven world. I can’t take it out.”
“I need to die once and return to the Taixu Illusionary Realm to see the extra Facing Reality Imprint.”
“Let’s do this.”
Before Zuo Lie could respond, Han Yi took off the sword tool from behind him and handed it to Zuo Lie.
“Daoist Zuo, please hold onto this sword tool for me temporarily.” contemporary romance
Then, without waiting for Zuo Lie’s objection, he slapped himself in the forehead without hesitation.
Bang!
The shattered body dissipated into nothingness, leaving Zuo Lie gaping on the side.
“He’s one tough guy!”
