Pieces of white paper and crumpled paper balls were scattered everywhere on the ground and the table, looking a bit messy.
On these pieces of white paper, one could see a variety of complex and mysterious formation runes.
Han Li sat at the table, quickly scribbling on a piece of white paper with a brush in his hand.
After a while, he raised his head, sighed, and put down the pen in his hand.
These days, he had been racking his brains, combining all his past memories and understanding of formations in an attempt to crack the chains of law on the nascent soul. Unfortunately, there had been no substantial breakthrough.
Although he had also designed several restrictions that seemed to be able to shake these chains of laws, most of them were only feasible in theory. After careful consideration, all of them were rejected without exception.
The biggest problem was that he knew too little about the eight chains of law on the nascent soul. If he could find out what laws these chains contained, there might be a glimmer of hope.
At this moment, a white light flew in from the outside and turned into a sound transmission talisman.
Han Li waved his hand and the sound transmission talisman was sucked over. After probing it with his spiritual sense, a trace of joy appeared on his face. He got up and walked out.
After a while, when he returned again, there was a jade box in his hand. There were more than ten jade slips inside.
He took out a jade slip and stuck it to his forehead, then probed it with his spiritual sense.
After a while, he put down the jade slip with a frown. He took out another jade slip and continued to probe it.
Soon, he had checked most of the jade slips in the jade box, but his frown became even tighter.
These jade slips recorded secret techniques related to sealing Nascent Souls. Although they were more advanced than the previous ones, they were still of no help to him in his current predicament. It was no wonder that a small force like Luo Feng's was able to collect so many jade slips. They had probably reached their limit already.
After all, he had asked Luo Feng to search for them before because he was hoping for a fluke.
"It seems that I will have to personally go to Black Wind Island in a few days."
With this thought in mind, he picked up another green jade slip and stuck it to his forehead.
But this time, after a brief inspection, his expression immediately became a bit more solemn.
After a long while, he let out a long breath, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.
The jade chip recorded a secret technique named "Heaven Separation Heart Refinement". It was not a technique that targeted the Nascent Soul but a secret technique to confine magical power. However, after a brief consideration, he found that it was rather similar to the eight chains that bound his Nascent Soul.
At the end of the jade slip, it was mentioned that this secret technique had evolved from a type of Divine Ability called the Essence Isolation Chain.
"Elemental Isolating Chains … Could it be that the chains on the Nascent Soul are …" Han Li muttered to himself.
Although he couldn't be sure, this secret technique alone was worth studying. Perhaps he could find a way to break the chains on his Nascent Soul.
Han Li's eyes flashed slightly. He picked up the remaining jade slips and checked them one by one. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything useful in the remaining jade slips.
He took a deep breath and threw the rest of the jade slips into his storage bracelet. He then picked up the green jade slip that recorded the "Heaven Separation Heart Refinement" secret technique and stuck it to his forehead.
Several days later, Luo Feng once again received an order from Han Li to collect some materials.
This caused the somewhat anxious Luo Feng to let out a sigh of relief.
Although the materials that Liu Ming wanted him to collect were quite valuable, fortunately, there weren't many of them and he could basically collect them.
… …
Half a month later.
A series of muffled sounds suddenly rang out from the originally quiet courtyard.
Then, a dozen or so milky white pillars of light soared around the courtyard, forming a layer of white light barrier that enveloped the entire courtyard.
The changes didn't stop there. A large expanse of yellow light appeared around the courtyard, condensing into a yellow light barrier that enveloped the courtyard along with the white light barrier.
Then, with a sharp whistle, eight large silver banners appeared around the courtyard. With a slight sway, countless silver talisman characters appeared and turned into a large expanse of silver mist that enveloped the courtyard within a hundred feet.
At this moment, the sun had already set and the entire Wu Meng Island was enveloped in orange light.
Luo Feng and a few elders of the tribe stood on a tall platform and looked at the courtyard that had already been engulfed by the surging silver mist from afar. A hint of shock appeared on their faces.
"What is Senior Liu trying to do? Why is he causing such a huge commotion?" Luo Hanliang, who had been ordered to search for the Secret Technique on Black Wind Island, could not help but ask.
"We don't need to think too much about what Senior Liu is trying to do, and we definitely shouldn't ask too many questions," Luo Feng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Although Luo Hanliang still had a hint of doubt on his face, he still agreed.
Luo Feng turned to look at the others and slowly said with a solemn expression, "Elders, although the Blue Crystal Race hasn't made any movements so far, it's only calm on the surface. Moreover, all of you know that the Blue Crystal Race isn't the only power that covets our tribe.
Right now, the safety of our tribe can be said to depend on Senior Liu alone. Do not do anything that might anger him, "Luo Feng said slowly as he turned to look at the others with a solemn expression.
Everyone's expressions trembled and they all agreed in unison.
Luo Feng pondered for a moment before saying, "Pass down my order. From today onwards, seal all the entrances and exits of the island. At the same time, strengthen the patrols around the island. Don't let anyone disturb Senior Liu.
Recently, there have been many suspicious people on the island. You must pay more attention to them. Senior Liu's identity must not be exposed. "Luo Feng pondered for a moment before instructing in a deep voice.
The others acknowledged and flew away. Soon, only Luo Feng was left. He looked at Han Li's courtyard in the distance, thinking about something.
At this moment, in the open space of the small courtyard, a huge formation was slowly operating. Countless silver lines interweaved on the ground, flickering between bright and dark. There were seven silver pillars in the surroundings that were also engraved with runes. They were arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper, looking somewhat similar to the formation of the Realm Temple's Star Gathering Platform.
Han Li sat in the center of the formation, not moving at all.
Time passed slowly, and the sun soon set completely. Darkness once again enveloped the entire island.
The stars tonight were abnormally bright, and they flickered incessantly.
Han Li looked up at the night sky with a smile on his face. He muttered an incantation and waved his hand to cast a spell onto the formation.
Weng weng!
An incomparably dazzling light appeared in the formation, and a huge wave of spiritual power rippled out. Even though he had set up three layers of restrictions around the courtyard, they were unable to completely block it.
At this moment, Han Li could no longer care about these things. His two hands quickly moved in front of him.
The formation's operation speed suddenly increased, and the Big Dipper in the night sky slightly lit up. Bright starlight began to fall down and converged toward the small courtyard, forming seven starlight pillars.
These starlight pillars did not fall on his body. Instead, they fell on the seven silver stone pillars in the formation.
The runes on the stone pillars immediately lit up, and the entire stone pillar quickly became crystal clear.
As the starlight continued to converge, the runes on the seven stone pillars became brighter and brighter. With a flash, they moved as if they were alive, forming seven patterns that looked like eyes.
Pu pu pu!
Seven muffled sounds rang out in succession!
Each of the seven eye patterns shot a thumb-thick starlight into Han Li's lower abdomen, chest, eyebrows, and other places.
Han Li frowned, and a trace of pain flashed across his face. Then, seven balls of bluish starlight appeared on his lower abdomen.
The starlight that had been injected into his body flashed, and transformed into silver filaments. Then, they started to wander in his meridians.
At the same time, the magic power in his Dantian also started to circulate in his meridians.
The starlight filaments and the magic power were both in his meridians, but they did not conflict with each other. Instead, they were swimming in harmony.
Han Li took a deep breath. Then, he formed a seal with both hands, and his hands exuded traces of white light.
His meridians fluctuated, and countless tiny white runes appeared out of thin air.
The magic power and the starlight filaments were enveloped by these white runes. Then, they lit up at the same time, and slowly fused into one. Suddenly, they transformed into strands of lightning-like bright silver filaments of light. Then, they started to travel in his meridians.
A unique aura exuded from these light filaments.
These light filaments were specially created to break the Nascent Soul's chains. Shi Mu had fused the power of starlight and magic power. Then, he had used a secret technique to evolve this special magical power.
"I hope it works," Han Li muttered to himself.
The silver light filaments wandered in his meridians. Then, they finally converged in his Dantian. Then, they intertwined with each other, and transformed into a layer of silver light net that wrapped around the Nascent Soul. Then, it immediately tightened.
At this moment, Han Li urged in his mind, and started to operate the Spirit Refinement Technique.
"Boom!"
The vast power of his Divine Sense flooded his entire Dantian. Then, it transformed into countless Divine Sense Crystal Filaments. They passed through the gaps of the silver light net, and shot towards the Nascent Soul.
Just as the silver light net and the Divine Sense Crystal Filaments were about to touch the Nascent Soul, a "Buzz" sound was heard. Then, a black light flashed on the surface of the Nascent Soul. Then, the eight black chains emerged.
The black chains seemed to have felt threatened. So, they started to tremble violently. Then, an innumerable amount of black mist emerged.
The silver light filaments and the Divine Sense Crystal Filaments collided with the black mist. Then, a "Pi Pi Pa Pa" sound was heard.
The black mist was gradually torn apart as the silver light filaments and the Divine Sense Crystal Filaments continued to emerge.
Finally, some of the Divine Sense Crystal Filaments and the silver light filaments flew out of the torn black mist. Then, they pierced the black chains.
The black chains trembled violently. Then, the black light on the surface of the chains faded away.
Han Li was delighted to see this.
The silver light filaments were effective against the black chains.
He urged in his mind. The Divine Sense Crystal Filaments flashed. Then, they transformed into crystal blades. Then, they fiercely chopped at the black chains.
A loud "Keng Keng" sound was heard.
The crystal blades chopped at the chains. Then, they immediately shattered. Then, they dispersed into specks of sparkling light. However, the black chains trembled even more violently.
Suddenly, the eight black chains shook violently. Then, they emitted a crashing sound. Then, they suddenly lit up.
Countless tiny black magic characters emerged. Then, they blocked the attack of the Divine Sense Crystal Filaments.
