I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

“Who are you?”

Han Yi’s tone was slightly cold, devoid of any emotion.

The female cultivator repressed her unwillingness and lowered her head, “Junior Mu Yao, a cultivator from the Mu Family of Qinghe.”

Han Yi’s eyebrows furrowed. The Mu Family of Qinghe should be a cultivation family from Shu Du. He had previously visited Qinghe Fang in search of the Fu family.

“I’m asking you, do you know what those black shadowy creatures were just now?”

Mu Yao was startled, raised her head, looked at Han Yi with a puzzled expression, and said, “Senior doesn’t know?”

“Hmph, if 1 knew, would I still need to ask you?” Han Yi snorted lightly, his tone colder. The aura of a Foundation Building Middle Level cultivator emanated, making Mu Yao’s face change drastically.

“Please forgive this junior, senior.”

“Those black shadowy creatures just now were Illusory Beasts, transformed from spiritual items that have been devoured by the Void Domain.”

“Illusory Beasts, Void Domain?” Han Yi was confused in his heart.

Seeing Han Yi’s confusion, Mu Yao quickly and concisely explained, and Han Yi suddenly realized.

The Mirage Immortal World, the place where Han Yi was currently located, was a world heading towards destruction. And the place where it fell was the Void Domain.

The Void Domain was not just a single world, but a vast, bizarre realm.

Time and space in the Void Domain were in a highly chaotic state, constantly changing and reversing.

It was because of its proximity to the Void Domain that the Mirage Immortal World had an inconsistent time flow with the real world. In the Mirage Immortal World, several years had passed, equivalent to over a decade, while only a mere three breaths had passed in the Yu Heng World.

This was also the origin of the name “Illusory World.”

The Dark Mist Space was not actually called Dark Mist Space, but rather the Void Domain Invasion Area.

These invasion areas would randomly appear throughout the Mirage Immortal World. In reality, these areas were part of the Mirage Immortal World being transformed into the Void Domain. In the invasion areas, illusory beasts would roam. As long as they weren’t spiritual items, the Illusory Beasts couldn’t touch anything in the Illusory World, making them appear as if they were mere illusions. This was also one of the reasons for the name “Illusory World.” However.

If one attacked the Illusory Beasts, it would be like there was a brief intersection between the two worlds.

In that case, it would alert all the Illusory Beasts in the invasion area, and the attacker would be exposed in the eyes of the Illusory Beasts. If the attacker was killed, their body, Divine Soul, techniques, magical treasures, and spiritual items stored in their storage bag would all fall into the Void Domain. After undergoing some mysterious transformations, they would become new Illusory Beasts.

If an Illusory Beast was killed, it would drop the spiritual items that had transformed it into an Illusory Beast.

However.

No matter what, as long as there was a Void Domain invasion area, that place would begin to intersect with the Void Domain. Even if the Void Domain invasion area temporarily disappeared, it would soon attract even more and more powerful Illusory Beasts to reform a larger invasion area.

In other words, this place was no longer safe.

Han Yi’s eyebrow raised, feeling that the female cultivator in front of him still had hidden some key information, and her intentions were not pure.

However, he was not an evil or demonic cultivator, so he would not attack or kill her directly or use the Soul Searching Skill.

Mu Yao saw Han Yi deep in thought, her eyes flickering, and continued with a hint.

“Senior, actually, there are two ways to obtain spiritual items in the Mirage Immortal World. One is by killing Illusory Beasts, and the other is to explore hidden areas in this world to obtain spiritual items.”

“The first method, killing Illusory Beasts, is very dangerous. The strength of the Illusory Beasts is usually on par with the cultivators in the area where they appear. However, there are numerous Illusory Beasts, and under the siege of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of Illusory Beasts, cultivators would find it difficult to survive.”

“The second method is much safer. The predecessor of the Mirage Immortal World was also a cultivation world with cultivation sects and families. If one could enter the hidden areas of these sects or families, they could potentially obtain spirit stones, magical instruments, treasures, and even heaven-defying Immortal Skills.”

“I am from a branch of the Mu family. Not long ago, by a stroke of luck, I obtained a booklet from a cultivator who had entered the Mirage Immortal World a hundred years ago. That cultivator had discovered a hidden area of a sect and had confirmed that it was without danger. However, he hadn’t gotten a chance to take away the many spiritual items before being teleported out, regretting it for the rest of his life.”

“I’ve already burnt the booklet, but its contents and map are all in my head. 1 can take senior there.”

Mu Yao’s lowered her head, not letting her eyes be seen. In her gaze, a chilling light flashed past momentarily.

What she didn’t understand was.

Han Yi didn’t respond for a long time.

“Senior?”

She secretly raised her head, only to see that there was no one in front of her. The Foundation Establishment expert who had been standing there earlier seemed like a fleeting dream, leaving her bewildered.

“I…”

Meanwhile.

After leaving the courtyard where he had been temporarily staying, Han Yi followed the streets and continued onward.

Although he knew that Mu Yao was hiding some crucial information, he didn’t want to pursue it. Since Illusory Beasts had appeared in the courtyard, it wasn’t safe anymore. So, he decided to leave and find another place to continue his cultivation in seclusion.

It was better to cultivate than to kill Illusory Beasts.

As for what Mu Yao said.

There might be many spiritual items in this world, but the dangers that came with them were bound to be considerable as well.

Just like when he was in the Stars Sea, Han Yi didn’t want to get too involved. He knew his own strength. He could easily bully Foundation Establishment Cultivators, but if he encountered Gold Core cultivators, he would have no choice but to flee.

Worst case scenario, if he ran into the Golden Core Hall Master from the Fragrance Sect who had been chasing him before, wouldn’t that be like jumping from the frying pan into the fire?

However, if he could cultivate to the Foundation Building late stage, Han Yi was confident that he would be able to escape with his life if he faced that cultivator again.

That’s right.

Even if he advanced to the Foundation Building Late Stage, he still didn’t have the confidence to Reverse Fight a Golden Core..
