Chapter 474: This is Mine!

Han Li opened his mouth to release a burst of azure light, which vanished into the green gourd, and a layer of green light instantly appeared over its surface.

The green light was filled with countless tiny runes that were flowing like water while spreading outward, giving off an impression of abundant vitality.

A burst of faint law power fluctuations was also emanating from the gentle green light, and a hint of elation appeared in Han Li's eyes.

It seemed that a faint spiritual connection had been formed between himself and the green gourd.

Han Li slashed a fingernail over one of his fingertips, drawing a drop of blood essence that dripped onto the green gourd, but instead of fusing into the gourd, the drop of blood merely slid down its side.

However, not only was Han Li not disappointed to see this, his eyes lit up instead as he nodded to himself, confirming that this was indeed a Profound Heavenly Treasure.

Even though he once possessed the Profound Heavenly Spiritslash Sword, he didn't actually know very much about Profound Heavenly Treasures, and only after arriving in the Immortal Realm did he gradually begin to find some records and scriptures pertaining to Profound Heavenly Treasures.

These treasures were born from heaven and earth, and they were different from normal immortal treasures. One important property of Profound Heavenly Treasures was that they couldn't be refined using blood essence. Instead, they could only be slowly refined over time in one's body using their immortal spiritual power, and this refinement process was going to be a very lengthy one.

In the case of the Profound Heavenly Spiritslash Sword, it had been nurtured in Han Li's body for countless years before he was slowly able to wield it.

Furthermore, if the owner of a Profound Heavenly Treasure were killed, and the treasure fell into the hands of someone else, then that person would be able to wield it right away. In contrast, in a normal immortal treasure, the mark of the previous owner had to be removed first before it could be refined again, and even then, there was a chance that the new owner would never be able to tap into the treasure's full power.

Han Li took a deep breath, then pressed the green gourd against his forehead, and he was only just barely able to force a wisp of his spiritual sense into it, upon which a surprised look instantly appeared on his face.

Inside the gourd was a large space that was filled with green light, which was swirling to form an enormous green vortex.

The space deeper within the gourd was rather blurry and indistinct, but there seemed to be something else in there.

Hovering at the center of the green vortex was none other than Han Li's Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword, which Qu Ling had captured earlier, and Han Li was quite relieved to see this.

The Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were his bonded immortal treasures, and if he were to lose one, then that would spell a lot of trouble.

Instead of immediately recovering his flying sword, he continued to extend his spiritual sense deeper into the internal space of the gourd.

However, his spiritual sense had only just reached the edge of the vortex when it was stopped in its tracks by a burst of invisible force.

Han Li was rather taken aback by this, and he tried to force his way through, but to no avail.

It was clear that this invisible barrier couldn't be bypassed using his spiritual sense alone, and he would have to find some other way to break through it. Perhaps this would only be achievable once he refined the gourd to the point that he was able to truly control it.

Of course, it was naturally the case that the more profound this gourd was, the more it would benefit him.

"Get away from me, you shady-looking bastard! I can't stand the sight of you!" Jin Tong snapped as her brows furrowed slightly.

The smile on Mo Guang's face instantly stiffened upon hearing this.

"Don't be so rude, Jin Tong. All of us ascended to the Immortal Realm together, and it's very fortunate that we've all been reunited here," Han Li scolded in a stern voice.

Jin Tong took another disdainful glance at Mo Guang, but didn't say anything further, and her attention was instantly drawn back to the vast array of treasures on the ground.

"We've reeled in a massive haul, Jin Tong," Han Li said with a smile.

However, Jin Tong seemed to be completely unable to hear him, and her cheeks bulged as she opened her mouth to release a burst of golden light, sweeping up a set of seven or eight golden flying daggers nearby.

Each dagger was giving off formidable spiritual power fluctuations, clearly indicating that they were spirit treasures of a very high caliber.

The burst of golden light carried the flying daggers into Jin Tong's mouth, and she began to chomp on them with glee, chewing the daggers into pieces before swallowing them.

Both Daoist Xie and Mo Guang were very much taken aback to see this, while Han Li could only give a wry smile.

All of a sudden, a burst of golden light emerged over Jin Tong's body before flowing into her arms to further reinforce them, and her aura was also elevated slightly as a result.

Immediately thereafter, she began looking around once again, and her gaze quickly settled on a heavy silver hammer as she opened her mouth to release another burst of golden light.

The hammer was drawn into her arms, and she cradled it to her chest as she took a bite out of the treasure.

A corner of the hammer was bitten off, and she began humming a blissful tune as she crunched on the piece of hammer like a chunk of crispy radish.

The silver hammer wasn't far off from becoming an immortal treasure, and Han Li raised a hand to stop Jin Tong, but lowered it with a resigned expression in the end.

He then turned to Daoist Xie and Mo Guang and tossed a pair of storage tools at them as he instructed, "Organize everything and stow them away."

The two of them caught the storage tools, then exchanged a glance before quickly commencing their work.

Meanwhile, Han Li swept his gaze over the surrounding area, and something quickly caught his attention. He swept a sleeve through the air in a covert fashion, sneakily drawing a purple saber, a golden net, and a white archway to himself, and he was just about to stow them away when a little hand shot out from beside him like lightning to grab onto the purple saber.

"This is mine!" Jin Tong yelled as she looked up at Han Li.

A wry smile appeared on Han Li's face, and he stowed the golden net and the white archway away as he negotiated, "There are so many other treasures here, and you can eat as many of them as you like, but these three are immortal treasures. Even if you eat them now, you may not be able to digest them, so I'll give them to you next time, alright?"

"You're so stingy!" Jin Tong complained, displaying no intention of releasing the purple saber.

"Alright, then how about this? You give this saber to me, and I promise you that I'll kill a Golden Immortal for you and feed you their nascent soul," Han Li proposed.

This time, Jin Tong didn't even bother to reply as she opened her mouth and bit down toward the purple saber.
