I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 711: Chapter 319: Immortal Realm’s Void Prison, Burning Life Seed_3

Thousands of years ago, a Gold Core cultivator once found a broken Immortal Artifact in the first layer, sparking an endless treasure hunt that spanned the ages.

On the third day of Han Yi’s coma.

A figure was cautiously exploring this dark forest, a young woman around seventeen or eighteen years old. She was using a magic tool to search for potential spiritual items in the surrounding area.

A moment later.

She saw a corpse from afar and was taken aback but didn’t immediately flee nor approach. Her past treasure hunting experiences told her that when encountering a cultivator’s corpse, it’s best to wait and test the situation before taking things like robes or storage bags from a distance with a magic tool.

Although the first layer rarely had Spirit Transformation cultivators due to its environment, it wasn’t unheard of for powerful corpses of even Immortal Level or higher to appear.

If one carelessly approached these powerful corpses, they might trigger protective spiritual treasures which could turn the voyeur into ashes with just one strike. Furthermore, there were cultivators who would set traps by pretending to be corpses, luring and killing treasure hunters.

The woman cautiously waited for the time it took an incense stick to burn, and seeing no abnormalities, she finally summoned a silver-colored chain magic treasure. It was suitable for treasure hunting and probing objects, of a low-grade quality.

The elongated silver chain extended through the air, silently approaching Han Yi, and then wrapped around the Qiankun Ring on his finger, attempting to pull it off.

Huh?

The woman’s face changed slightly as she couldn’t budge the ring. It seemed as if it had taken root on his finger.

Could it be a magic skill? Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The silver chain abruptly retracted, and the woman retreated. But after a while, she appeared again, hesitating but ultimately decided to try again.

Although the corpse had no signs of life, her senses told her that it was extraordinary.

She summoned the chain again, this time aiming for the sword tool barely visible on the corpse’s back. Despite the sword tool lacking any spiritual essence, it was clearly the corpse’s primary weapon and likely a high-grade magic treasure.

What the woman didn’t know was.

The Green Reed Sword was not without spiritual essence but had concealed it after falling into the fissure and sensing danger. Its essence became completely hidden after the phantom emerged, making it appear like an ordinary magic tool.

At this moment.

The chain extended, wrapping around the green-black sword, and still, it couldn’t budge.

Before the woman’s expression could change, the Green Reed Sword trembled, releasing a powerful spiritual essence.

The woman’s pupils constricted, excited at the hint of a spiritual treasure.

If she could obtain a spiritual treasure, her current predicament would be resolved in an instant.

But before her joy could dissipate, the seemingly dead cultivator she could only see from the side suddenly opened his eyes.

The woman’s face changed dramatically. Was this ‘dead’ cultivator playing dead?

No.

He wasn’t ‘dead.’

The cultivator, who had just been lifeless, now had a terrifying aura that made her heart palpitate uncontrollably.

Her mind went blank, leaving only one thought:

“It’s over!”

Immediately, she let go of her magic tool, turned, and tried to flee. Her speed was so fast that even the recently awakened Han Yi was taken aback.

With just a thought from Han Yi.

The Green Reed Sword behind him soared into the air, swiftly crossing several hundred meters, and hovering in front of the woman, forcing her to come to a stop. But her face had turned pale.

She knew she couldn’t escape. A cultivator who possessed a spiritual treasure would be at least a Nascent Soul cultivator, or even a Spirit Transformation. In the face of such an opponent, she, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, stood no chance of escape.

However, the fact that he didn’t kill her right away meant that not all hope was lost.

She turned around, looked at Han Yi, and said with a bitter smile:

“Senior, please forgive me. I didn’t know you were in meditation, disturbing you was an unintentional mistake.”

Several hundred meters away, Han Yi did not respond. Although his eyes were open, he still lay down, as his body remained severely injured.

Actually.

His awakening was due to the woman disturbing the Green Reed Sword, causing its spiritual essence to stir and rouse him. In a sense, he should be grateful for her intervention.

Moreover.

The woman being here most likely meant she knew how to return to the Immortal Realm, which was the primary reason Han Yi had the Green Reed Sword stop her.

At the moment, although he had awakened, not only was his body still grievously injured, but his consciousness hadn’t fully recovered either. Even if he encountered a Nascent Soul cultivator, it would be a challenge for him.

Han Yi had a thought and pulled out his Proficiency Panel.

At first glance, he was stunned.

Initially, he had planned to directly use Life Seeds to enhance the Ancient God Visualization Method, allowing his body to recover quickly.

However, he hadn’t expected that the 1649 Life Seeds that were there before would be completely depleted in the Proficiency Panel.

[Life Seeds: 0 units].

Han Yi suddenly felt a mix of emotions.

He had only used a single Life Seed to break through to the Mid-stage Nascent Soul.

He knew where the remaining 1649 units had gone.

Before he fell unconscious, the mysterious fluctuations that had occurred were from the consumption of Life Seeds. No, it wouldn’t be accurate to describe it as consumption.

Burning.

Yes, only ‘burning’ would accurately describe it.

Those 1649 units of Life Seeds had burned away just like that.

His mixed emotions consisted of regret and relief.

His regret was for not using more Life Seeds to further advance his skill.

On the other hand.

He was relieved that he had Life Seeds because otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived the invasion of the Mother Nest Will.

Moreover.

The strange presence that had hidden inside him and left as a phantom in the end had also departed during the crisis.

It’s hard to predict misfortune and fortune.

How one weighs gains and losses is a difficult question.

Just then.

A weak, anxious voice pulled Han Yi out of his mixed emotions.

“Senior, senior?”
