In a year's appointment, it only took about ten months for Li Han to complete the predetermined goal, which was one step faster than the highest cultivation speed he originally imagined.

In this way, Li Han still has about two months to continue to improve his cultivation, so that when he obtains the Heavenly Artificial Transformation Pill refined by the Hidden Dan Sect, his chances of advancing will increase.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

In the past month or so, Li Han has not heard anything outside the window, and has devoted himself to cultivating, still absorbing the pure fire essence of the Demon Fire Crystal Cave during the day, and cooperating with the second Heavenly Fire Source Crystal excavated, constantly cultivating the fire system exercises, the Golden Buddha Bathing Fire Diagram.

In the evening, he continued to take the beast Zhu Zhi and practiced the low-level exercises of the earth products, and the tide sound of the eternal world.

With the support of the almost endless fire essence of the Demon Fire Crystal Cave, the extremely cold Golden Buddha Bathing Fire Diagram naturally cultivated rapidly, and coupled with the use of the Beast Zhu Zhi to cultivate the Eternal Tide Sound Skill, the natural progress was not slow.

In addition, there is the secret scroll of convincing qi to continuously refine impurities, purify the realm of Dao qi, and reconcile the common source of water and fire.

In this way, the two complement each other, and Li Han's cultivation realm has also skyrocketed.

For more than a month, he had continuously broken through the middle stage of the Intermediate Half-Step Dharma Dan and the late stage of the Intermediate Half-Step Dharma Dan realm, and he was currently only one step away from the peak of the Intermediate Half-Step Dharma Dan.

And this was something he could never have expected before he left the Hidden Dan Gate.

At that time, he thought that even if he used it for a year, he would reach the early stage of the mid-level half-step Dharma Dan at most, and he might not be able to succeed...... But now, he was only one step away from the peak of the mid-level half-step Fadan.

The gap between them is naturally huge.

Of course, to be able to have such a fast cultivation speed, the price spent by Li Han is also huge.

At the cost of four million high-grade treasure money, that is, 100 million low-grade high-grade beast Zhu Zhi, the fourth-grade high-grade spiritual beast under the auction, has almost been consumed, and only a small piece is the size of a fingernail at the end, which can support him to persist in cultivation for seven or eight days at most.

And this Demon Fire Crystal Cave, which contained such magical treasures as the Heavenly Fire Source Crystal, was almost completely digested by him, and almost all the Demon Fire Crystal Yuan Energy that could be discovered was absorbed by him.

Moreover, in the course of this month, Li Han successively discovered the third and fourth Heavenly Fire Source Crystals in this Demon Fire Crystal Cave...... Although there were no more, these were all important reasons why he was able to advance to the late stage of the mid-level half-step Fa Dan in such a quick time.

Therefore, on Li Han's body, almost all the external resources that could quickly supply Li Han to break through the cultivation realm were almost exhausted, and only the last small piece of beast Zhu Zhi and a piece of Heavenly Fire Source Crystal remained.

The rest of the external cultivation things were all refined and consumed by Li Han in more than two months or so.

Therefore, while the achievements are gratifying, the costs are also enormous.

Of course, for Li Han, as long as he can quickly improve his cultivation realm, no matter how much he pays, it doesn't matter, so he doesn't feel distressed, it's just a pity.

In the last month, except for the first seven or eight days, it is estimated that the latter will slow down, and when the one-year period comes, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break through to the high-level half-step Fadan, let alone the top-level ......

Of course, Li Han also knew that these were pure extravagant hopes, so he didn't think much about it, he was able to reach the early stage of the mid-level half-step Fa Dan earlier than expected, and even now that he had reached the late-stage realm, far exceeding his own estimates, it was already a blessing.

However, in the next month, Li Han could no longer stay in this remote mine to cultivate.

Although it is safe here, no one disturbs it, and there is also a small part of the Demon Fire Crystal Vein, which is estimated to be relatively hidden, and has not been discovered by Li Han, if it is found, he is afraid that he can continue to improve some of Li Han's cultivation realm, but it is time for him to have to leave.

After all, the one-year period he had agreed with the master of the Hidden Dan Sect, the 'Thousand World Dan Immortal', Bai Miaonu, was a year later, and he had to rush to the Hidden Dan Gate to collect the Heavenly Man-made Pill, not a year later, when he set off.

If he didn't set off until a year later, by then the Heavenly Artificial Transformation Pill would have already been refined, and there would be an extra month of time to travel, and there would be more variables.

Therefore, just in case, it was best for him to arrive at the Yin Dan Gate a year ago, collect the Heavenly Artificial Transformation Pill, and directly swallow the breakthrough.

When the time comes, he has broken through to the Fadan Realm, even if some people are itchy, it is estimated that there is nothing to be done.

Therefore, he had already decided to continue his cultivation here for the last three days to see if it was possible to find the fifth or even sixth Heavenly Fire Source Crystal, and at the same time prepare to leave the customs.

Regardless of whether he found it or not, three days later, he had to go out of the customs, break through the hole, and go to the headquarters of the Northwest Yin Dan Gate to collect the Heavenly Man-made Pill and advance to the Dharma Dan Realm.

It's just that Li Han didn't expect that just after three days, he hadn't unlocked the formation and left the waste knife ruins, but an unexpected change suddenly came.

......

Above the wasteland.

Several panicked young figures were rushing forward, followed by several black-clothed people, each with a white 'thorn' embroidered on the chest, with an arrogant look, like a cat playing with a mouse, constantly chasing.

The figures of several young disciples in front of them, there are men and women, and the clothes they are wearing are also strange, and if you look closely, there are actually young women wearing blue robes from Minghualou, as well as two Tiangong Mountain disciples wearing black clothes, and a young woman wearing a cyan Danding robe.

Looking at his appearance, he was a disciple of the Yin Dan Sect.

These four people, all of them are not weak, all of them are in the early and middle stages of the air pocket, and they are also considered to be the best among the junior disciples, but at this moment, when they were chased and killed by these few strangers wearing black-clothed 'thorn' clothes, they all looked extremely frightened, all of them were pale and soaked, and they obviously didn't know how long they had been running.

But even so, the other party is getting closer and closer to them, and the god of death is about to approach one by one.

Suddenly, a narrow knife gorge appeared in front of him, shaped like a barren ruin, bottomless, which was the place where the cold retreat was located, the ruined knife ruins.

The blue-robed young woman who was running at the front looked back at the several black-clothed strangers who were getting closer and closer, and suddenly her face showed a resolute look: "I, Li Qiqi, would rather die than give in!"

As soon as the words fell, she summoned up the last trace of strength, jumped forward, and jumped towards the bottomless canyon of the ruined knife ruins.

"Ah, Sister Qiqi, don't ......"

Behind him, the other two male disciples of Tiangong Mountain, as well as the disciple of the Yin Dan Sect who was wearing a cyan Danding robe, did not react for a while, and it was too late to rescue, so they couldn't help but be shocked and sad.

It was the black-clothed stab members behind him who were also unexpected, firstly, they did not expect such a narrow sword ruin to appear here, and secondly, they did not expect that the last Minghualou disciple Yu Xian had so much courage, seeing that he could not escape the poisonous hand, he jumped directly, and would rather die than give in.

This made them admire it tightly in their hearts, but this was the task assigned to them above, and they found that any disciple of the Eight Great Sects would either be captured alive or killed directly, and they would never let it go.

Therefore, although they sympathized in their hearts, they still couldn't help but look nervous, and one of them, obviously the leader of the group, immediately increased his speed, and at the same time raised his arms and shouted: "Don't let them all jump, hurry up and stop the remaining three, the dead are much cheaper than the living." ”

"Yes!"

Hearing this, several other black-clothed members also looked solemn at the same time, and quickened their pace, seeing that they were about to catch up with the three people in front.

Seeing this, thinking of the tragic situation that fell into the hands of these black-clothed stab members, sometimes it was not even as good as death, the two black-clothed disciples of Tiangong Mountain, as well as the blue-robed Yindanmen disciple, glanced at each other, and suddenly gritted their teeth at the same time, and they didn't hesitate anymore, and at the same time jumped down towards the pitch-black ruins.

"Pounce, pounce ......"

When the black-clothed members of the Thorn Department arrived quickly, they reached out and grabbed only half of the corners of their clothes, and the four of them, who were originally fish in the urn, became loose horses at this moment, and completely disappeared without a trace.

Several black-clothed stab members paused, hovered their bodies that were about to fall, and looked down.

I saw that the sword ruins were deep and dark, and I couldn't see the bottom of it, and the four famous disciples of the eight major sects all disappeared without a trace, and it was estimated that most of them fell to pieces at the same time, and they were all difficult to survive.

A few people beat their chests and regretted it, but there was nothing they could do.

In the reward system of the Kingdom of Gods and Demons, capturing a living Eight Sect disciples is obviously much stronger than forcing to kill a few Eight Sect disciples whose whereabouts are unknown and whose bodies are not even visible, and the merit is also greater.

But now, a few people who were supposed to be fish on the board have become boiled ducks and flew, which makes a few people not annoyed and ashamed.

"It's all your ......"

Suddenly, one of the members of the Thorn Department couldn't help but angrily point at the other Thorn Companion: "Yuan Laosan, if you didn't say that you wanted to play with those two little girls, why would you be responsible for such a result?"

"I, how am I responsible?"

The member of the assassin department named 'Yuan Laosan' suddenly panicked, and said with a dodgy gaze: "Boss, this is not right, obviously everyone agreed at that time, and they all said that they were happy, but now that there is a problem, how can it be all blamed on me." They jumped off the cliff, which we didn't expect before, right, even if something happens, the responsibility should be shared by everyone. ”

"Excuse yourself, you ......"

The other person is to be refuted and sarcastic to him.

A big quarrel is inevitable.

At this moment, the leader of the Thorn Sect raised his eyebrows angrily and shouted angrily: "Okay, don't make any noise, don't you think it's enough trouble? Among these people, there is one person who is the person named by the Thorn Star Elder to be caught!"

He raised his eyebrows and paced in place, visibly feeling a headache as well.

The rest of the members of the thorn department suddenly didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore when they saw this, and the two who were about to quarrel also stopped talking at the same time, lowered their heads, and looked like they were obeying orders at any time.

"Huh?"

After a while, the leader of the thorn tribe suddenly gave an order that no one expected, but it was reasonable.

"Although this ruin looks high, it should not be difficult for all of us, no matter whether those eight sect disciples are dead or alive, they must be caught. If you die, you will take the head back and receive the reward, and if you are lucky enough to have one or two who survive, that is even better!"

"Find some ropes, prepare some flints, dispel the poison, and after a quarter of an hour, go down to the ruins to find someone!"

"Yes!"

Several members of the stabbing department, looking at the dark and obviously not a good waste knife ruin, were obviously a little reluctant, but they didn't dare to disobey, so they could only nod their heads and go to look for them one by one.

After a while, several people reunited, and after setting up the straw rope, each of them grabbed their tails, and then jumped with both feet, jumped backwards, and gradually fell into the abyss......
