Chapter 582: Chapter 277: Shocking Secrets, Ancient Dragon Palace

“Sect Master.”

Han Yi called softly, but that aimlessly wandering figure in this extremely cold world continued to walk, slowly and firmly.

His face remained the same as before, but in every other aspect, he seemed like a completely unfamiliar person to Han Yi.

Han Yi called out softly for the third time, but Yuan Shun still remained unaware, and Han Yi’s brows furrowed.

Yuan Shun’s state was strange, very strange. It seemed as though he had closed off his Divine Soul and only a body was walking outside. This situation was different from the Corpse Puppets in the Corpse Domain.

Han Yi no longer called out and just followed closely behind.

However,

Although Yuan Shun appeared aimless, he was actually walking in a large circle. At this time, both Han Yi’s physical body and Divine Soul had reached their limits. He estimated that he could hold on for at most another quarter of an hour before he had to retreat.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Han Yi couldn’t hold back anymore. He retreated several hundred meters behind and then gently flicked his finger, shooting out a Spirit Light.

The Spirit Light flashed and disappeared in an instant, landing on Yuan Shun.

This Spirit Light didn’t utilize the special method of the Spirit Void Finger, but merely the gentlest of mana. Even if it hit an ordinary person, it wouldn’t cause any damage.

In an instant, Han Yi formed the Wind and Fire Shield while staying vigilant for possible attacks from Yuan Shun, whose condition was unknown. However, much to Han Yi’s consternation, Yuan Shun was not affected and continued wandering aimlessly in this extreme cold world.

In just a brief moment, Han Yi figured it out and flicked his finger again. This time, it was a real Spirit Void Finger, full of mana capacity. Even an ordinary Gold Core cultivator who received this blow would be injured.

He thought clearly that even with his full force Spirit Void Finger, it would not affect Yuan Shun. Otherwise, the three Spirit Transformation stage experts who later entered this place from the Qianyuan Sect would not have returned empty-handed and left this dangerous Corpse Domain in the far north unattended.

It was not that they didn’t care, but they couldn’t do anything about it. Otherwise, they wouldn’t let others sleep snugly in their own territory.

The Spirit Light was faster and more fierce, tearing through the extreme cold and falling on Yuan Shun in an instant.

This time,

The wandering figure of Yuan Shun, who seemed aimless in this extremely cold world, finally reacted. He suddenly turned around, his eyes glowing white, with no pupils visible, and looked at Han Yi in a strange way.

Then, he abruptly stretched out a hand and grabbed forward. The Corpse Qi in the sky suddenly condensed in his hand, transforming into a white seal. The seal was lightly thrown toward Han Yi, breaking the air as it approached.

The seal didn’t exude any majesty, and even its surface didn’t have any mana fluctuations. Han Yi couldn’t even detect any danger.

However, he was already prepared, using the Demonslayer Armor as a shield and his own Wind and Fire Shield in front. In addition, he held several Fourth-stage Talismans in his hand, semi-activated and ready to attack at any time.

He was confident that with these defenses, even a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator couldn’t instantly kill him.

But,

What happened next was something that shocked Han Yi and he absolutely did not expect.

At the moment the seal broke through the air,

The black bead in his Sea of Consciousness, which he obtained from the Ninefold Void Realm, suddenly began to vibrate violently. This vibration even made Han Yi’s entire Sea of Consciousness tremble, as the grayish-white qi surged and fell.

Then, in the midst of the violent shaking, the black bead’s light flourished, and with a slight jump, it disappeared from the Sea of Consciousness. In the next instant, a black bead emerged above Han Yi’s head. After that, the black bead flew up into the air and collided with the oncoming seal.

No.

Collided was not an accurate description. A more appropriate term would be “accepted.”

That’s right.

It was as if this black bead intended to accept a part of itself back, like something it originally belonged to.

At this moment, Han Yi’s eyes shrank and his face showed shock. He didn’t see the expected explosion from the collision. Instead, the white seal made of Corpse Qi directly merged into the black bead.

It was utterly silent, as if they were one and the same.

This scene happened too fast. So fast that Han Yi couldn’t even process it in time before it was over.

His face changed dramatically.

What kind of bizarre item was that white seal just now, able to cause such a reaction in the black bead in his Sea of Consciousness?

He had been careless, too careless.

That white seal, seemingly harmless and formed from the Corpse Qi unleashed by Yuan Shun, must be something terrifying.

If it weren’t for the black bead in his Sea of Consciousness, who knows what would have happened if the white seal had landed on him.

Han Yi felt his heart pounding with lingering fear.

But at this moment,

Another anomaly occurred in the sky.

The black bead, which had accepted the white seal, suddenly began to spin wildly. Its original black color instantly turned white, then back to black, and then returned to white again.

This transformation between black and white sped up, so much so that even Han Yi, with his current cultivation base, couldn’t see it clearly.

In just half a breath, this change became permanent.

From being a black bead, it had completely turned white. This white was not pure white nor ghastly white, but an immaculate, dust-free white.

This white bead floated in midair, and then, a phantom-like figure rose from the bead.

This was a blurry-faced Taoist. The figure was so hazy that even his robes couldn’t be clearly seen, only a vague silhouette could be discerned.

However,

Han Yi could feel a gaze falling on him. In an instant, it seemed as if all his secrets had been seen through.</p
