Chapter 466: Shady Cultivation Art
The black needle on the stone plate shuddered slightly, immediately following which an arc of black lightning shot out like a springing viper to strike Han Li's fingertip.
A burst of sharp pain speared straight into Han Li's soul, and he snapped his hand back as he winced involuntarily.
At this point, the soul fragment in the Soul Nurturing Burner had already recovered some of its strength, and it began to cackle in schadenfreude upon hearing the commotion ringing out within the hall.
However, in the next instant, the Soul Nurturing Burner was swept up by a streak of azure light before being wrenched into the hall.
The soul fragment instantly began to wail in panic and agony as the same burst of golden light rose up from the ground once again.
With a casual sweep of his sleeve, Han Li summoned a spherical light barrier that enveloped the entire Soul Nurturing Burner, and only then did the soul fragment's wailing subside.
"I can't believe I'm at the mercy of a rude little brat like you! Back in the day..."
Before the soul fragment had a chance to finish its sentence, Han Li extended the incense burner toward the sundial on the stone platform as he interjected, "What is this supposed to be?"
"How the hell am I supposed to know? Hey! Hold on, let's be civilized now..."
Once again, before the soul fragment could say anything else, Han Li threatened to withdraw the spherical light barrier, and the soul fragment hurriedly began begging for mercy. This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
"This is an Extreme Yin Sundial, and it's also the core of this secret area. Only by completely destroying it will you be able to leave this secret area," the soul fragment explained in a deflated voice.
A hint of intrigue appeared in Han Li's eyes upon hearing this. "All I have to do is destroy this thing?"
"It's not as easy as it sounds, kid. You're dreaming if you think you can destroy this thing through brute force at your current cultivation base. If you're not careful, the yin lightning backlash from the sundial could easily send you to an early grave!" the soul fragment warned in a solemn voice.
"You were saying earlier that mastering the laws of time or space would be very helpful to breaking the core of this secret area, right?" Han Li asked with a contemplative expression.
"Of course! Time and space are two of the three paramount laws, and normal laws are completely incomparable to them! All spatial barriers and restrictions are built upon the basis of spatial laws, so mastery of spatial laws will allow you to tackle this restriction directly at its roots. As for the laws of time, that's also relevant as the Extreme Yin Sundial is a pseudo-immortal treasure that contains the time law powers," the soul fragment explained.
Han Li's brows instantly furrowed tightly upon hearing this.
During that brief inspection that he had just conducted, he wasn't able to sense any time law powers from the sundial.
"I'll be honest with you, Senior. I just so happen to be cultivating the laws of time, so why is it that I wasn't able to detect any time law powers in this sundial just now?" Han Li asked.
"How can I check how much baleful qi my body harbors?" Han Li asked.
"That's easy. I'll teach you a baleful qi manifestation mantra. Listen up."
With that, the soul fragment recited a peculiar mantra to Han Li, who quickly memorized the mantra before repeating it himself.
As the final syllable of the mantra was uttered, the entire hall shuddered violently, following which plumes of black smoke began to rise up from the top of Han Li's head before spreading through the hall like a black cloud.
Before long, the entire ceiling of the hall was completely concealed behind a dense black cloud that was as dark as ink.
Even then, there was still more and more viscous black qi constantly surging out of Han Li's body.
The soul fragment's mouth had completely gaped open in astonishment upon seeing this, and if it possessed a physical body, its jaw would've most likely already dropped onto the ground!
"This is incredible... How many people have you killed?!" the soul fragment murmured to itself in a flabbergasted voice.
After releasing all of this baleful qi, Han Li was feeling much more relaxed, as if a heavy load had been lifted from his shoulders, but at the same time, a series of wild and aggressive impulses were springing up in his heart.
Han Li suppressed these impulsive urges as he asked, "How is my baleful qi looking?"
"I've seen quite a few people with baleful qi as abundant as yours, but most of them also harbor immense bloodlust, so their baleful qi has a dark red coloration. However, your baleful qi is completely different. Suck pure black baleful qi is an extremely rare sight, and I'm sure that'll help you significantly mitigate the negative side-effects of using this cultivation art of mine," the soul fragment praised.
Han Li nodded in response, then withdrew his hand seal, and the churning black qi around him instantly receded back into his body.
"Why are you in such a hurry to withdraw your baleful qi? You haven't even released all of it yet," the soul fragment complained.
Han Li paid no heed to its complaints as he demanded, "Teach me your cultivation art."
"So you've decided to use it? Don't take this decision lightly," the soul fragment chuckled.
Han Li offered no response to this. He hadn't decided whether he was going to use the cultivation art yet. Instead, he was going to secure it first, then make up his mind on whether he was going to use it later.
After obtaining the cultivation art by the name of the Profound Baleful Spirit Arts from the soul fragment, Han Li returned it to the same hall as before.
In order to help the soul fragment stabilize itself, he left the Soul Nurturing Burner with it as well.
He still didn't know just how much he could trust the soul fragment, but it did seem to know quite a bit about the Infernal Frost Immortal Palace, and a mere soul fragment wasn't going to be able to pose any threat to him anyway, so he decided to keep it around for now.
With that in mind, Han Li arrived in a large secret chamber in the underground palace, and after closing the stone door of the secret chamber, he summoned a stack of array tools and began to set up some restrictions.
