Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

The Azure Dragon lunged to attack, but Han Li countered with the back of his hand. The Buddha Suppressing Prison Seal burst the Azure Dragon apart, and another punch was hurled, shattering the void and slaughtering the Vermilion Bird.

Han Li grew stronger as the battle went on, his fighting spirit increasing by the moment. He was so thrilled, having never experienced such an intense confrontation before.

After attaining combat ability at the Divine Yuan Realm, the Life-Prolonging Furnace sent him five early-stage Divine Yuan Realm sparring partners to test his own strength. What a magnificent Divine Weapon indeed.

The Dragon Abyss Sword slashed out thrice in succession, each slash possessing the might to destroy worlds, capable of annihilating a starry domain. The splendid sword light cleaved through, and the Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Kylin crumbled one after another.

Han Li stood above the ninth heaven, clear-headed and exhilarated, a smile on his face as he watched the five Mystical Beasts recover.

“Is that all you’ve got?”

Han Li’s taunting voice echoed in the Secret Territory. In the next instant, the Life-Prolonging Furnace fired five beams of divine light once more, instantly restoring the five Mystical Beasts.

This time, the five great Mystical Beasts didn’t gang up. They stood firm at the five cardinal points of the heavens and earth, and a massive Five Elements Formation Map appeared beneath them, obfuscating the sky and enveloping half of the Secret Territory.

Han Li didn’t hesitate and threw a direct punch, the force ripping through the void, bearing a might that could suppress all under heaven and intent on destroying the Five Elements Formation Map. He never had the habit of waiting for his enemies to be ready.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~

From each of the five great Mystical Beasts, a different colored divine light surged out, instantly forming the Five-Coloured Divine Light that hurtled towards his fist imprint.

As the Five Elements Divine Light swept past, the fist imprint was directly annihilated, and its formidable power charged towards Han Li unabated.

Han Li’s brows raised slightly, his expression becoming serious. The might of this Five Elements Divine Light was already close to the power of the fourth layer of the Divine Yuan Realm.

He wielded the Dragon Abyss Sword, slashing out three times in succession—the stars shattered, the world collapsed, the realms were extinguished. Each slash was stronger and more terrifying than the last, striking the Five Elements Divine Light and significantly reducing its power, before he finally burst it with a punch.

Suddenly, Han Li’s brows furrowed slightly. The duration of his Divine Sense was about to end, so he promptly triggered it for the second time without any hesitation.

Then, Han Li took the initiative, wielding the Dragon Abyss Sword and charging forward. The sword glowed brilliantly, executing world-annihilating slashes, as sword intent storms swept through all creation. His palms and fists alternated, employing one martial technique after another in a fierce confrontation with the five cardinal Mystical Beasts, the Five Elements Formation Map, and the Five-Coloured Divine Light.

Bang!

After a dozen or so breaths, the Five Elements Formation Map was shattered, and the five Mystical Beasts also fragmented, leaving only Han Li standing between the heavens and the earth.

A myriad of miles in front of him, the Life-Prolonging Furnace radiated divine light, the two began a standoff.

“Got any more? Bring five more; I want to fight ten!” Han Li said with a laugh.

But in his heart, he remained extremely vigilant. These words were just probing the limits of the Life-Prolonging Furnace.

He wanted to see to what extent the Life-Prolonging Furnace had recovered and if he could forcibly take and refine it. He had not utilized the Chongming Palace from the beginning; with his current strength, using the Chongming Palace could unleash even greater combat ability.

“You really are arrogant, young man.”

The tone of the Health Preservation Furnace Spirit became much livelier, with a hint of amusement, seemingly appreciative of Han Li’s strength.

“I know what you’re after. Since you’re so persistent, this old one will give you a chance. Whether you seize it or not is up to you.”

As the words fell, without waiting for Han Li’s response, the lid of the Life-Prolonging Furnace flew up, a divine light shot into the sky, and an overwhelmingly powerful aura spread out, making Han Li frown tightly.

Within that divine light, a new figure emerged, the Azure Dragon!

But at this moment, the Azure Dragon was a hundred times larger than before, and its aura was many times heavier. It gazed from afar at Han Li, instantly giving him a sense of mortal peril.

Swoosh!

Han Li’s figure vanished, disappearing from the Secret Territory, leaving behind only a voice echoing throughout.

“I’m someone who takes advice well. You told me to return after reaching the Divine Yuan Realm, so that’s exactly what I’ll do.”

Inside the Life-Prolonging Furnace, a cluster of divine light contained a tiny, delicate figure, not the old man Han Li had imagined, but instead a silver-haired, silver-dressed little loli with a porcelain-like complexion.

“This guy is really interesting.”

The Artifact Spirit loli Yin Ling’s mouth twitched, finding Han Li’s quick grasp surprising as she had wanted to play a bit longer.

Having been in this Secret Territory for over a hundred thousand years, she was utterly bored and longed for the day when the Furnace’s body would be repaired so she could roam the world freely again.

Suddenly, a person came with the intent to subdue her. Naturally, Yin Ling was not willing; she was an ancient treasure, a Great Saintly Weapon, not some cheap enchantress that would follow just anyone.

Yin Ling intended to scare him away, but Han Li was stubborn and insisted on pursuing her. So, Yin Ling planned to tease him a bit to assess Han Li’s strength.

After observing for a while, Yin Ling set aside her initial playful attitude and began to acknowledge Han Li.

The man was indeed formidable, with unparalleled talent and stunning martial skills, possessing the combat ability of a martial emperor of the Divine Yuan Realm while still in the True Martial Realm. He mastered several Divine Rank martial arts. The five Mystical Beasts that she had created were all at the third layer of the Divine Yuan Realm, and their formation was nearing the strength of the mid Divine Yuan Realm. Nonetheless, Han Li had managed to destroy them.

Thus, Yin Ling spoke those words, willing to recognize Han Li as her master and accompany him in his battles across the Yuankun Domain, providing that he passed the test.

But Han Li was too fearful of death. Before she could even mention the test, he had already fled, leaving the Secret Territory.

The Azure Dragon she created had the combat ability of the Later Stage of God Yuan Realm, and Yin Ling knew well that Han Li was not strong enough to kill it. If Han Li could withstand three breaths of time, he would pass the test.
