I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

But now, coming out would mean seeking death.

Han Yi calmly looked at her, his eyes showing no sadness or happiness. If she turned around and left now, he wouldn’t pursue her. But if she took another step, it would mean seeking death.

However, Mu Yao was not one to give up easily.

Actually, Han Yi had guessed wrong. Mu Yao hadn’t arrived nearby early, but only arrived here about a quarter of an hour ago. She saw Han Yi’s body struggling to support itself against the wall, his face covered in cold sweat, clearly suffering from severe injuries.

She still remembered that before this, Han Yi had killed hundreds of Void Beasts in front of her, obtaining hundreds of Spiritual Items. Any of those items would be a treasure to her.

Moreover, he was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. The Sword Tools in his hand must be at least top-grade magical instruments, or even possibly treasures.

If she could possess them, her resources for cultivation in the Foundation Establishment stage would no longer be an issue.

Such temptation was hard for her to resist.

Without hesitating for long, she stepped out.

Her plan was simple: first test the waters, then immobilize Han Yi using a magical instrument belonging to some degree and worsen his injuries. After that, snatch his storage bag, magical instruments, and treasures, and then attract Void Beasts to devour Han Yi.

In this way, she wouldn’t need to worry about the Divine Soul of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator taking over her body, and couldn’t worry about Han Yi living to leave and seeking revenge in Qinghe Fang.

Just as she stepped within ten meters of Han Yi, the cruelty in her eyes grew, and she pounced at him.

However, all she saw were a pair of calm eyes. In the light reflected from those eyes, a red Sword emerged from in front of Han Yi, sweeping past her in mid-air without a sound. She lost consciousness and was beheaded before even the thought “I’m dead” could cross her mind.

With a splatter.

This time, blood sprayed all over Han Yi because he couldn’t dodge it.

This sword was the only one he could wield at the moment. After this sword, his Divine Soul swelled in pain, barely maintaining itself and not dispersing.

Less than a quarter of an hour later.

A Black Fog began to appear around them. Han Yi’s face changed and he hurriedly picked up the Fire Mist Sword that had killed Mu Yao, the fallen Seven-Star Kunwu Sword, and the black token.

Following that,

He struggled to slowly get up and move towards the nearest collapsed building, hiding in its cellar.

Taking a deep breath, Han Yi lowered his head and unintentionally found that the black mark on the back of his right hand had disappeared.

It seemed that the black mark should have condensed on the back of his hand when he killed the Void Beasts. Han Yi temporarily called it the Void Domain Mark.

In that case, he came up with the most reasonable guess.

Anyone who killed Void Beasts and obtained the Void Domain Mark would slowly sink into the Void Domain. The first layer was relatively safe, while the second layer began to be dangerous, with the danger increasing with depth.

Han Yi didn’t know how many layers he had fallen through before because he could only perceive his own ‘existence’ at the time, with no thoughts or consciousness. He couldn’t accurately know which layer he was in.

Now that the Void Domain Mark had disappeared, Han Yi guessed it had something to do with the black token.

But no matter what, this was a good thing for him. It meant that as long as he didn’t kill Void Beasts and accumulate the Void Domain Mark again, he wouldn’t fall into the Void Domain.

With that in mind.

Han Yi took a deep breath, sat down, and began to cultivate.

Moreover, he focused his entire attention within his Sea of Consciousness Space, guiding the gray mist within it to continuously repair his Divine Soul’s injuries.

He didn’t know how long it had been.

Han Yi opened his eyes again and instantly felt refreshed. In his Sea of Consciousness Space, his Divine Soul had recovered by thirty percent.

With a thought, he knew that a month had passed.

In this month, his physical body had also basically regained its mobility. However, his internal condition was still terrible, his mana scarce, and his Spirit Sea blocked.

Han Yi stood up and looked out from the cellar exit, discovering that the outside was now enveloped in a Black Fog, with occasional dark shadows flashing by.

He didn’t leave immediately but sat back down, took out some Spirit Stones, and began to cultivate carefully, not daring to make any big movements.

Three months later.

Han Yi opened his eyes again, and at this moment, his mana was only recovered by ten percent.

The injuries to his physical body were too severe, his Spirit Sea severely damaged. The combination of new and old injuries and his previous battle with the malevolent existence that had possessed Li Yuan Yi had left his Spirit Sea still unhealed.

With no choice, Han Yi continued to cultivate.

Two and a half years later.

His Divine Soul had completely recovered, and the injuries to his Spirit Sea had healed by ninety percent.

After tidying up, Han Yi left the cellar, avoiding the Void Beasts. This time, he dared not kill any more Void Beasts. He didn’t want to experience another round of Void Domain Marks, falling, tearing his body apart, and dispersing his Divine Soul. Han Yi just couldn’t handle that.

It took him three years to heal these injuries, and his Spirit Sea still had lingering troubles.

This painful experience was the first of its kind since he had crossed over and left an indelible shadow in his heart.

Han Yi never wanted to experience it a second time.

After leaving the cellar, Han Yi’s figure flickered, and he appeared hundreds of meters away where he had killed Mu Yao earlier. He discovered that even the bloodstains on the ground had been cleaned up, and the corpse, magical instruments, and storage bag had all disappeared.

Han Yi’s heart sank.

Under such circumstances, they had probably been devoured by the Void Beasts or fallen into the Void Domain.

Han Yi looked up at the hovering Void Beasts patrolling the surrounding area. This area attacked by the Void Domain had expanded to such an extent that he couldn’t see the borders at a glance..
