Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 682 Infiltration (Part 5)

boom! ! !

Just as Han Yi was about to go downstairs, a huge explosion of fireworks suddenly came from outside.

Accompanying the explosion was a bright white light.

"A thief has broken in! Help!"

The shrill screams of panicked women rang out simultaneously, alarming the entire Kou residence.

Instantly, everyone in the Kou family turned their attention to the main house where Han Yi was.

"The Hundred Lineages of the Demon Clan... the Flying Feather Lineage... Golden Glow... I'll remember you..." Han Yi's face instantly darkened. "Right here! Look, the back window has been opened! Someone, come quick!!"

At this moment, shouts from the patrolling guards could be heard outside the door.

But when Han Yi came in, he had clearly been very careful, closing the window and trying his best to leave no trace.

so…...

Now that things have come to this, how could he not know?

I was fooled.

It could even be described as being sold out while still helping the seller count the money.

Han Yi took a deep breath, his thoughts racing.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Fine, fine. Since we can't sneak in, we'll just have to force our way in!

This time it's already been discovered, next time...

No, there won't be a next time.

The items in the secret room will definitely be moved after this incident, and they will be hidden away with even greater care and caution.

That's when.

It was truly a case of crying out to heaven and earth in vain.

Without the Dragon-Controlling Heavenly Fire Manual, the Seven Transformations of Heavenly Evolution cannot be manifested in the world, and the Jing Tian Manor's plan to reunite will only become empty talk!

This will affect a series of subsequent arrangements and plans.

"go!"

Without further hesitation, Han Yi darted into the secret chamber and slammed the hidden door shut.

The steps lead straight down, with dimly lit oil lamps on both sides, creating a dim atmosphere, but enough to illuminate the way.

But he didn't have time to check carefully and strode straight down.

Swish swish! ! !

It's unclear which mechanism he triggered, but suddenly countless arrow holes appeared on both sides of the wall, and hundreds of powerful crossbow bolts flew out, completely blocking him from all sides.

"Black Shield, activate!"

Han Yi remained expressionless, his speed undiminished.

dong dong dong.

The crossbow bolts struck his black shield, causing it to shake and vibrate. Most of them were deflected, while the remaining one or two that slipped through the gaps were easily caught.

Rumble...

However, the crossbow bolts were just the appetizer; a series of mechanisms seemed to have only just begun to operate.

Suddenly, the walls on both sides exploded open, and a pair of iron plates with sharp spikes appeared abruptly, fiercely attacking Han Yi from both sides.

A single spike is as thick as an iron awl.

If that hits solidly, the body would probably be pierced through on the spot, leaving countless bloody holes.

"Extreme Cold, Condensate!" A thick, chilling aura burst forth from Han Yi's body, rapidly spreading along the iron plate and instantly leaving layers of ice on the mechanism behind him.

Click, click...

Although it wasn't completely frozen, the mechanism was temporarily halted, which was enough for Han Yi to escape.

He slapped the two iron plates on either side, leaped up, destroyed the mechanism, and jumped just out of its blast radius.

However, it seems that the designer of this mechanism had anticipated encountering a master.

The moment Han Yi landed, the steps beneath his feet seemed to dip slightly.

He inwardly cried out in alarm.

It's too late.

Bang!

Several steps collapsed simultaneously, creating a huge pit.

call…...

At the same time, above the sealed room, heavy objects were also rolling down and crashing down.

boom!

In an instant, the sound grew louder and louder, and it turned out to be a huge round stone with a diameter of four or five meters.

Judging from its size and the speed at which it fell, it must weigh at least several tons.

The impact of such a force, falling from the sky, is unimaginable.

The impact force is almost the same as that of a heavy-duty truck.

"Unlimited Punishment!"

A roar sounded.

The air seemed to slow down, with ripples of energy spreading outwards like water.

Then, a deafening sound like fireworks exploding filled the air, and the force of the punch, generating immense wind pressure, extinguished all the oil lamps in the secret room simultaneously. This was because the speed was far too fast, exceeding the speed of sound.

The fist gently touched the surface of the stone.

Huge boulders, in comparison.

A fist, like a small apple, is insignificant.

But it's just such a small apple.

Boom!

The force penetrated through it, first shattering and exploding the latter half of the boulder.

crackling sounds...

Next, cracks appeared where it made contact with the fist, and it slowly shattered and fell away.

"A clever design, but utterly useless against absolute power..."

Han Yi landed gently, returning to his normal size.

“There’s another door…” He went down the steps and saw a locked stone door in front of him.

"..."

Han Yi paused for a moment, then quickly took out a porcelain bottle from his waist pouch.

Sizzle sizzle...

The brownish-yellow liquid was poured onto the lock, and soon a pungent, unpleasant odor was generated, causing the lock tongue to be rapidly dissolved and corroded.

Seeing that most of the latch had been dissolved, Han Yi wasted no time, grabbed it, and pulled hard.

With a snap, it was easily pried open.

call!

But as he violently opened the iron lock, a cloud of pink mist exploded out from it.

Before Han Yi could react, his nose and mouth were covered.

Fortunately, his hand was always next to his fanny pack. He hooked it with his middle finger, flicked it, and pinched it between his two fingers.

Snapped.

He crushed a large white pill.

The white mist instantly appeared from it, quickly reacting with the pink mist and enveloping and absorbing it.

The white and red crystals, sparkling and translucent like pink diamonds, quickly condensed in the air and fell to the ground.

Han Yi had naturally considered various possibilities when he infiltrated Kou's residence.

Encountering traps, poisons, or enclosed spaces are naturally among the situations he focuses on.

At this point, the advantage of having a friend who is well-versed in unorthodox practices becomes apparent.

This guy is rich, he left a ton of stuff.

Especially the antidote. It really came in handy.

Only after the trap was removed did Han Yi dare to breathe freely.

"That Kou Hu... he's really damn treacherous..." he couldn't help but curse under his breath.

Anyone else would have fallen for the trap long ago.

If he hadn't been well-prepared, he might have suffered an unexpected setback.

First, there are three interconnected traps. After passing through the traps and seeing the secret room, intruders are usually overjoyed and become complacent, ultimately leading to their poisoning and death.

"To be honest... if Kou Hu were still alive, maybe the two of us could exchange experiences and learn from each other..." Han Yi thought to himself.

He is considered cunning and cautious by nature.

Unexpectedly, there are people in this world who are similar to him.

Pushing open the stone door, what came into view was a dazzling display of gold and precious jewels.

Piled on the ground were chests of gold and silver treasures, some of which were half-open, revealing rows of huge, gleaming gold ingots, carelessly tossed on the ground like trash.

What was displayed on the shelves were things far more valuable than mere gold and silver.

Five-colored utensils, crackled porcelain bowls, gold-painted dragon-patterned mirrors…

These items are obviously very valuable at first glance.

Ordinary yellow candlelight, when cast upon it, creates a colorful and magnificent effect, instantly making the entire secret room seem much brighter.

"It's definitely hidden inside... Search it carefully!"

Noisy footsteps, loud shouts.

At this moment, the sound faintly drifted down through the passage and stone gate.

Without time to think, Han Yi quickly scanned the area and spotted the items on the side shelf.

What's on there appears to be items related to martial arts: a porcelain bottle from which pills were taken, aged medicinal herbs, and some unusual weapons that look like they come with a unique martial arts manual.

Soon, he saw a row of neat books in the corner of the shelf.

The "Dragon-Controlling Heavenly Fire Manual" is clearly among them.

Originally, he only intended to secretly take away the lost true skills, but now that his infiltration had failed and he had been discovered, Han Yi no longer held back.

He took out a bag he had prepared beforehand, quickly put the real skill inside, and then with a wave of his hand, various lightweight, valuable, and easily portable items, such as house deeds and land deeds, were stuffed into the bag one after another.

As for gold, silver, jewelry, and precious antiques...

He didn't even move.

After all, to him, these external things were no different from garbage.

"Sir...I'll go check this way..."

Just as Han Yi was enjoying the thrill of his sweeping victory, the voices of patrolling guards came from the bedroom above.

He weighed the bag in his hand to make sure it wouldn't affect his speed, then silently slipped out of the stone door and arrived at the secret door to the hidden chamber.

Through the crack in the hidden door, one could vaguely see two guards holding torches, carefully searching the room.

Fortunately, most of the places they searched were places with hiding spaces, such as under beds and in wardrobes.

Kou Hu's design of the hidden door mechanism was indeed ingenious; most people wouldn't be able to detect its trickery.

But this can't go on forever.

Han Yi's thoughts raced.

Kou Lie, the master of the Kou family, is not here, so the other party has not discovered him.

Once Kou Lie returns, he will definitely think of the secret room.

If he doesn't withdraw in time during this lull, he might be in big trouble. *Sizzle sizzle sizzle...*

The black energy of the spirit seed surged violently, and layers upon layers of black armor completely covered Han Yi's entire body, including his face.

Like a fish returning to the river, a feeling of being in its element, agile and at ease, arose from the depths of his heart.

As Han Yi's research into the Bloodline Spirit Seed deepened, he successfully discovered its growth and changes, leading to its first special effect.

Starting at dusk, after the sun sets, his bloodline spirit seed will become active and excited, and his physical and mental state will gradually improve from its original level.

This increase will reach its peak around midnight, when it is darkest, which is now!

"On a dark and windy night... one kill every ten steps..." Han Yi licked his lips.

This power was amplified and strengthened, and the feeling of fullness throughout his body made him eager to release it.

In the darkness, he chuckled silently. The black armor on his face cracked open, revealing a set of eerie white teeth.

Han Yi's overall appearance at this moment is somewhat similar to Venom.

even.

It will be even more terrifying.

“Let’s go to the next room. This room is empty,” a tall patrolman suggested to his companion as he stood up.

“Wait a minute, I feel like something’s off about this room.” His companion, a lean man, had a glint in his eye. “Didn’t you notice? The dust on the floor… is distributed rather unevenly.”

The tall patrol guard looked closely and confirmed it: "So, the thief had been in this room?"

“More than that,” the lean man asserted. “I suspect they might not have gone far, maybe they’re still around here! Come on, let’s go find Le Tou and have him come and take a look.”

puff…...

The sound of something lightly landing came from behind the two of them.
