Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

As Han Yu’s consciousness reached toward the Glazed Bottle, all he could see was dazzling golden light. The bottle seemed to be obscured by gold, making it entirely invisible.

What a sneaky bastard!

Han Yu had already determined that the bottle didn’t want him to see it again, or why else would it do this?

He didn’t want to look anymore, lest he be mysteriously beaten again.

In the Five Elements World, shadows constantly flashed, first soil emerged, followed by a metal-attribute mountain, and then rushing torrents—these all reappeared in the Five Elements World, just as the bottle had previously evolved.

Han Yu watched intently. Since the bottle brought him inside, it must be to let him truly experience it.

However, he didn’t know what the evolution of the Five Elements was for.

The Artifact Spirit, silent for so long, suddenly spoke with a strange expression, ”The Five Elements are the fundamental elements of this world; they’re like a great path—your Five Elements World might turn out to be an extraordinary Dharma Aspect.”

It could only speculate like this.

As for what exactly it would look like in the end, it had no way of judging.

Because it wasn’t the bottle, nor was it Han Yu.

Under the golden rainstorm, flames blazed around the bottle, as if it were being forged, accompanied by a series of clanging sounds.

The Artifact Spirit, soaked to the skin, also gradually changed.

The change wasn’t external but internal.

The Artifact Spirit dumbly clenched its fists, feeling somewhat different.

The Spirit Body was still the Spirit Body, but how come it felt full of power?

Suspicious, it threw a punch at the bottle—buzz! A trembling sound arose, the bottle shuddered, and it flew out, flipping over the earth and landing in the Five Elements Sea Domain.

”Is the bottle that strong?”

Rising to the surface, the Artifact Spirit was dumbfounded, then it suddenly realized—shouldn’t it say that it was so strong?

Being able to be thrown such a distance?

Han Yu saw this scene simultaneously, looking quite strange; the reckless behavior was just like him.

Not only was the appearance similar, but the reckless attitude was exactly the same, and the way it punched was identical.

The rain of the Five Elements World continued to pour incessantly, and the bottle was also undergoing changes, but unfortunately, Han Yu couldn’t see it.

Starlight gradually gathered, attaching to the bottle, and as time passed, it wove a new inscription, washed by the raindrops of Qi Fortune, making the inscription increasingly mysterious.

This all happened under the eyes of the Artifact Spirit, which gaped in amazement when it returned from the sea domain.

As the Five Elements continued to evolve, the Five Elements World seemed to gain a touch of mysterious aura.

This aura extended outward, and Han Yu’s body outside the Sea of Consciousness was imbued with it, inexplicably gaining a deeper meaning.

Bang!

Suddenly, there was a flash of lightning and thunder!

The Five Elements World suddenly cracked!

This almost scared Han Yu to death; the Five Elements World wasn’t a real world—ultimately, it was his Sea of Consciousness, and if the Five Elements World cracked, wouldn’t his Sea of Consciousness crack?

A sound like an eggshell cracking, darkness peeled away, revealing clear skies.

It wasn’t shattering; his Sea of Consciousness was actually expanding.

He didn’t know how much it had expanded, but under the golden rainstorm, the cracking sound didn’t stop, indicating the expansion had never ceased.

How big is my Sea of Consciousness now?

Even Han Yu himself wasn’t sure!

Seeing the golden clouds gradually drawing together, the next moment, a force pulled him back to his body.

Looking again, the clouds had dispersed into golden dots.

Is it over?

Just like that?

”Bottle, what about me?”

Han Yu couldn’t help but shout at the bottle; this rain nourished everyone, so why was he the exception?

How could it have overlooked him!

The Artifact Spirit was equally puzzled; even it seemed to have changed, so why hadn’t Han Yu?

It could confirm all the Qi Fortune had been used up, but the way it was used was beyond its and Han Yu’s expectations.

The bottle had overlooked Han Yu’s body; the focus had always been his body, even shifting its portion several times for Han Yu.

Yet now it wasn’t strengthening him.

”What’s the deal? Not caring about your body, but expanding your Sea of Consciousness instead?”

The Artifact Spirit was perplexed.

To say it didn’t care completely wasn’t accurate—the expansion of Han Yu’s Sea of Consciousness was exaggerated even to it.

But what difference does this absurd result make?

”With your Sea of Consciousness so large, your next Dharma Aspect will be even more ferocious; without a corresponding body, you could truly die!”

The larger the Sea of Consciousness, the nastier the death.

Maybe the Fire Phoenix would consume Han Yu along with its burning.

Logically, the bottle shouldn’t do such a thing.

”Unless the bottle has other motives!”

Han Yu furrowed his brow, speculating—otherwise, the bottle wouldn’t normally set him up like this.

This seemed like the first time the bottle pulled such a strange stunt.

”Second, the first was when it killed you without consent.”

The Artifact Spirit solemnly reminded him—it referred to when Han Yu’s body reached the Divine Platform Realm.

The bottle did this silently, which was not cool.

It definitely had a purpose; the bottle never operated without purpose.

It complained internally—his Sea of Consciousness surpassing his body, the body would definitely be unable to sustain.

Suddenly, Han Yu’s face turned odd, and an idea arose, albeit feeling somewhat incredible.

”Do you think the bottle is forcing me to quickly balance the Five Elements by intentionally tripping me up?”

It’s quite clear—if his body were strengthened again, he might not need Five Elements balance; he could withstand the imbalance’s harm with his body alone.

It would just be every time his Sea of Consciousness reached its limit that he could stop.

However, this seemed no big deal to Han Yu; his cousin could replenish his Sea of Consciousness anytime.

The Earth and Wood Pill could also resist damage from one Dharma Aspect.

Calculating it like this, the bottle seemed intentional.

”It never intended for us to have it easy!”

The Artifact Spirit turned angrily to the bottle and spoke.

Only the Metal and Water elements were missing, not that they could be easily found.

Prompting doesn’t help.

Han Yu deeply agreed—it took so long to find the Earth Spirit, and with the Earth Spirit unwilling to become a broken bowl, finding other Spirit Bodies would likely be harder.

”By the way, I seemed to see a new inscription on the bottle.”

Han Yu suddenly recalled the brief glance he had, quickly asking.

”It gained a new one!”

The Artifact Spirit had a complex expression—two thousand years’ Qi Fortune, at least sixty to seventy percent went into the bottle.

This couldn’t be the bottle’s limit; only its needed amount.

”It’s revived to eighty percent!”

The bottle had long been stuck at seventy percent progress, receiving various Qi Fortune feedings—and more Inquiry Stones—and yet no change.

Didn’t expect the large amount of Qi Fortune required for eighty percent revival.

Now that the bottle’s revived to eighty percent, is there any new change?

”Certainly there is.”

”What change?”

Han Yu was intensely curious, asking eagerly.

He hoped for changes in Pills, ideally removing time limits on them.

Without a time limit, it could produce as many Pills as it wanted, even hundreds at once wouldn’t be an issue.

In Central Continent, there are plenty of people willing to eat.

However, the Artifact Spirit’s next words immediately dashed his fantasies.

”Its next revival requires more Qi Fortune than you can imagine.”

Is that the change?

Nothing else?

Han Yu was dumbfounded—what was he raising, anyway? Consuming so much Qi Fortune just for better future appetite?

”Surely there are other changes we aren’t aware of; this guy remains silent, leaving us in the dark.”

The Artifact Spirit pouted, speaking—it didn’t believe the bottle would have no changes after absorbing so much Qi Fortune.

With such a mass of Qi Fortune, even feeding it to a pig would make that pig fly.

Only a part had been absorbed by it, and hadn’t it changed?

Yet this change felt odd.

”What’s wrong?”

Han Yu asked, seeing its complex expression.

Next moment, the Artifact Spirit suddenly spoke.

”I’ll show you something...”
