Lin Xiaotian looked at Han Leu and said, "There are two options for you," his tone calm but heavy, as if each word carried weight that could not be ignored. His gaze remained steady, giving no hint of hesitation.
"The first option is that I forcefully enter your spiritual sea and eradicate the corruption," he continued, his voice turning colder as he spoke of it, "but doing so will bring irreversible consequences that even I cannot predict."
He paused briefly before adding, "And the only certainty is that those consequences will not be positive they may range from minor damage to sothing far more severe, perhaps even crippling your foundation entirely."
"The second option," Lin Xiaotian said, shifting slightly, "is that you change your spiritual cultivation technique and attempt to gradually harmonize or suppress the corruption over ti." His tone softened just a fraction, though the difficulty of that path was evident.
Lin Xiaotian then let out a quiet sigh, his eyes lowering slightly before he spoke again, "Alas... there is a third way," and a faint trace of regret surfaced in his expression.
"But we can only consider these two," he added, his voice steady once more, "because the third requires a grade nine, top-tier pill—" he paused for a brief mont.
"The Void Essence Soul Reforging Pill."
Han Leu looked at him and sighed, "Alas... it seems all these are dead ends," his voice carrying a quiet resignation as he shook his head slightly, "I would try to change my soul cultivation technique, but even across the entire continent, finding one equal to or higher than mine is nearly nonexistent." His tone made it clear he had long accepted this limitation.
Hearing this, Lin Xiaotian looked at him and let out a soft chuckle, a faint hint of amusent appearing in his otherwise calm expression, "Do not worry," Lin Xiaotian said casually, as if handing out Heaven tier Manuals was like handing out cabbages.
As soon as his words fell, he raised his hand slightly, and with a subtle fluctuation of space, seven ancient manuals instantly appeared in his grasp, their presence exuding a faint yet profound aura that filled the chamber.
Heavenly Soul Refinent Art
Ninefold Spirit Tempering Scripture
Void Heart Soul Sutra
Ethereal Mind Ascension Technique
Yin-Yang Soul Harmonization Art
Celestial Lotus Soul Cultivation thod
Primordial Spirit Awakening Scripture
Each one of them was a top-tier art, their re existence enough to shake entire sects if revealed to the outside world, and the dense spiritual intent emanating from them made the air feel heavier.
Seeing this, Han Leu was completely dumbstruck, his eyes widening uncontrollably as his mind blanked, his expression turning so stunned that he looked as if he had just swallowed sothing utterly unclean and could not process what he was seeing.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaotian laughed lightly and said, "Do not worry, Elder Han, just choose whichever you prefer," his tone relaxed yet carrying quiet generosity, "you are the First Elder of the sect after all." His words were simple, but the weight behind them was unmistakable.
Hearing this, Han Leu’s eyes gradually filled with emotion, a rare crack appearing in his usually steady composure, and without hesitation he stepped forward and bowed deeply to Lin Xiaotian, his posture filled with genuine gratitude. If not for this opportunity, his path to immortality had already been severed, and with ti, it would have only collapsed further beyond repair.
Straightening up, he turned his gaze toward the floating manuals, his expression slowly regaining focus as he began to carefully examine each one, his divine sense brushing over their contents with utmost caution. The faint aura surrounding them alone was enough to make his heart tremble.
Ti passed quietly, and after roughly the span of an incense stick, Han Leu’s gaze finally settled, his choice becoming clear as his hand moved toward one of the manuals with firm resolve. The hesitation in his eyes had completely vanished.
He chose the Celestial Lotus Soul Cultivation thod, as its structure closely resembled his previous soul cultivation art, making the transition far more stable and manageable compared to the others. Even so, he clearly understood that this path would not co without sacrifice.
Switching techniques would cause his cultivation to fall back to the peak of the Golden Core realm, and when the next heavenly tribulation arrived, its difficulty would be far greater than before, testing not only his strength but his very foundation.
Then Lin Xiaotian stood up and gestured for Han Leu to follow, his expression turning serious once more as he led him into the inner cultivation chamber, where the air itself felt denser with spiritual energy. The atmosphere shifted the mont they stepped inside, becoming heavy with purpose.
As they entered, Lin Xiaotian activated the formation at full power, channeling every remaining spirit stone into it, and the array lit up with intricate patterns as waves of concentrated spiritual qi surged through the chamber, stabilizing the surrounding space. The faint hum of the formation echoed like a restrained storm.
He then turned toward Han Leu and said, "Sit," his voice calm yet firm, leaving no room for hesitation, and Han Leu imdiately complied, lowering himself onto the center of the formation as the energy around him began to circulate.
Without delay, Lin Xiaotian extended his divine sense once more, guiding it with far greater precision this ti as he carefully began restructuring Han Leu’s spiritual sea, altering the flow of his power bit by bit while maintaining strict control over every fluctuation.
Within the spiritual sea, the lotus platform beneath the miniature figure of Han Leu began to crack and slowly break apart, its once stable structure collapsing piece by piece as the very foundation of his previous cultivation thod was dismantled. The process was slow, deliberate, and carried an underlying danger.
As the final fragnts of the platform shattered completely, the suppressed demonic qi in the other half of the spiritual sea erupted violently, surging forward with uncontrollable rage as if it had been waiting for this exact mont to break free.
