Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator

Inside the quiet room, a young man in a blue robe sat cross-legged, his hands forming strange hand seals. Strange patterns spread across his entire body with each movement of his hands. These patterns were sometimes vibrant and dazzling, sometimes dull and lifeless, as if they possessed a life of their own.

As the next handprint fell, the young man's body shone brightly, and a vast golden light emanated from his body. The array patterns originally engraved on his body retracted and, under Han Li's control, surged towards the location of his lungs.

"Golden array patterns, solidify for me!"

With a low roar, his magical power surged forth, using secret runes as a guide and supplemented by the power of his divine sense to begin inscribing array patterns within his body.

As the array inscriptions pulsated and vibrated, the young man's expression became extremely solemn, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Because he was already proficient in array formations, although the Five Elements Array Patterns were profound, they were not a difficult task for him. However, inscribing array patterns on the internal organs was inherently a dangerous matter, so even he had to be extremely careful.

However, with his Qi Refining Level 3 cultivation level, it was indeed quite difficult for him to depict it.

This golden array pattern took more than ten days to carve.

Just as success was about to be achieved, a sudden change occurred!

The originally condensed golden array patterns suddenly dissipated without any warning.

"Why...what happened? Did I go wrong somewhere?"

Sensing the residual spiritual power of the golden array within his body, the young man frowned. This person was none other than Han Li, who cultivated the Taiqing Dongxuan True Light.

Three months ago, after obtaining the cultivation method of the Taiqing Cave Profound True Light from Lin Muxue, Han Li began to cultivate this technique. However, to his surprise, the difficulty of cultivating this technique far exceeded his imagination.

This was Han Li's fourth attempt to inscribe the Golden Array Pattern, yet he failed without exception, leaving him utterly perplexed.

"The Supreme Purity Profound Light, the Five Elements Divine Powers, the Metal Array Pattern... Could it be that cultivating this method requires fulfilling the requirements of the Five Elements Spiritual Roots?"

Han Li closed his eyes to regulate his breathing, pondered for a long time, and after confirming that there was no mistake, he finally came to this conclusion.

Ultimately, he decided to temporarily abandon the Gold Array pattern and try other array patterns instead.

As expected, after a month of work, Han Li slowly stood up after completing the fire array. At this moment, a faint red light surrounded him, and a restrictive and isolating force was activated from it. Under the shroud of this red light, Han Li's face became hazy, seemingly impossible to see.

The feeling gradually dissipated as the red light faded.

Han Li was speechless. He hadn't expected that inscribing the fire array patterns would be so easy.

Based on his previous speculations, he could basically conclude that cultivating the Taiqing Dongxuan True Light was not difficult at the beginning; it only required cultivators with three spiritual roots to inscribe the corresponding array patterns using their own spiritual roots. However, if one wanted to go further and break through to the first level of Great Perfection, or even the second level, one must possess all five spiritual roots—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—to succeed.

The reason why those Core Formation stage cultivators couldn't successfully cultivate this technique is probably related to this. After all, the foundation for cultivating this technique is at least a cultivator with three spiritual roots, and how could a cultivator who can cultivate to the Core Formation stage have such poor talent? With the spiritual roots and talents of these cultivators, they naturally cannot meet the requirements for cultivating this technique.

Han Li never expected that his extremely poor talent would become a unique "advantage" in cultivating the Taiqing Dongxuan Golden Light, which made him both amused and exasperated.

Now that we've identified the problem, things will be much easier from here on out.

After spending nearly half a year, Han Li finally managed to inscribe the other three array patterns that matched his own spiritual root attributes. Because he did not have a metal spiritual root, he was destined not to be able to cultivate this technique to the first level of perfection, but he was not annoyed by this.

After all, the main reason he chose to cultivate this technique was to retrieve the object shrouded in the golden light of the Taiqing Cave Profound Realm; the basics were sufficient. Moreover, because of the four array patterns inscribed on it, Han Li stood there without a trace of aura. Under the cover of the four array patterns, unless he deliberately released his aura, cultivators of the same level would not be able to see through his true cultivation level.

This makes it much easier to escape or do other things.

As for the lack of a metal spiritual root, in the spirit realm, one could use a weapon spiritual root rich in metal elemental energy as a substitute, or refine a metal-elemental pill spiritual root from the inner core of a demon beast with metal threads. With the effects of weapon and pill spiritual roots, it should be sufficient to compensate for the problem of unifying the five elements. At that time, the difficulty of cultivating the Taiqing Dongxuan True Light would naturally be solved.

However, to meet the above conditions, one's cultivation level must reach the Nascent Soul stage and then break through to the Void Refinement stage to resolve the issue of the Five Elements Unity. This is far too far away for Han Li at present.

There are still several months until the agreed-upon time with Lin Muxue. During these months, Han Li first made use of the talisman paper and talisman water he had obtained, inscribing many talismans with different effects, such as: speed-up talismans, invisibility talismans, fireball talismans, and so on. Then, he took advantage of this time to continue refining his essence into qi, deepening his magical power.

Time flies, and a year has passed.

As the stone gate slowly rose before him, Han Li opened his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Hao, it's been a year since we last met. I wonder how your cultivation of the Taiqing Cave Profound True Light is progressing?"

The door opened, and a graceful figure, as if from another world, entered. It was Lin Muxue.

"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

Han Li nodded, his whole body radiating a brilliant light, enveloped in a hazy three-colored mist, making him impossible to discern.

Upon seeing this scene, Lin Muxue's mouth gaped open, looking incredulous, her face full of surprise.

"Fellow Daoist, your comprehension is truly extraordinary; you have actually comprehended this Profound True Light!"

Han Li remained noncommittal, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Fellow Daoist, you are truly gifted to comprehend and cultivate this divine ability at the Qi Refining stage! What you have comprehended is the Three-Colored True Light, which is not complete compared to the complete Five-Colored True Light, but entering that herb garden should not be a problem."

Upon hearing this, Han Li nodded.

The reason he concealed the existence of the fourth type of true light was for his own safety. After all, each additional type of true light meant he could stay inside for longer. Who knew if those Core Formation cultivators would attack him then? This was a way for him to have a backup plan.

"Now that Fellow Daoist Hao has successfully cultivated, let's go to that cave now! Please follow me!"

Unable to contain her excitement, Lin Muxue grabbed Han Li's sleeve and flew straight towards a mountain range outside Yunxi City.
