Upon seeing the pill, Han wore a puzzled expression.
Previously, he had acquired three talismans: for X-ray vision, invisibility, and hypnosis. Now, he had also obtained the Heart Bewitchment Pill.
Did the Daqian Immortal Tree have some sort of misunderstanding about him?
Was he really the kind of person to need such things?
Apart from these, Han had also harvested two Dao Seeds in the past few days while chopping trees.
[Dao Seed: Food Summoning Spell]
[Summon food with a chant, nourish spirits and ghosts, dispel disasters, and increase personal virtue.]
[Dao Seed: Clothing Removal Spell]
[Recite the chant to remove clothes, undress, leaving garments pristine and immaculate.]
The Food Summoning Spell was useful to Han, after all, he had An Lang, who was always hungry.
Though An Lang resided in the Ghost Dwelling and didn’t need food, it felt a bit cruel not to feed her...
Now, Han could easily nourish An Lang.
An Lang could grow by absorbing moonlight, and eating only required Han to chant a simple spell, consuming little mental energy, with no real cost.
Taking care of a ghost like An Lang was effortless for Han.
It almost felt like he was freeloading off An Lang...
But when the second Dao Seed fell, Han couldn’t help but feel exasperated.
Talismans were one thing, pills were another, but now this Dao technique?
Hypnosis, X-ray vision, invisibility, Heart Bewitchment, and now the Clothing Removal Spell—it was a complete set, wasn't it?
What kind of ridiculous Dao technique was this?
What was the point of learning this?
There was no use for it whatsoever!
Was he supposed to chant this spell during a fight to strip his enemies?
What a perverted fighting style...
The Clothing Removal Spell had been promptly discarded by Han. He had no intention of using it.
Well, the two Dao Seeds had been planted in the Soul Village, where they were growing robustly.
Though he wasn’t going to use them, there was no harm in learning a few more Dao techniques.
These were Han’s latest rewards from chopping trees—good stuff, all in all.
“Master, I’ve learned how to make Calming Incense!”
Suddenly, An Lang’s cheerful voice rang out as she floated into the room, holding a freshly made incense stick.
Han was taken aback. How did she learn so quickly?
He took the incense from her and inspected it. It did resemble the Calming Incense from the crafting manual, though the quality was a bit lacking.
But considering it was An Lang’s first attempt, it was understandable.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
Still, how was she able to learn so fast? Didn’t she say it would take half a month to even get the basics down when talking to Yun Duo? Was she really so talented in incense crafting?
Could it be that my ghost, An Lang, has the potential to become the Emperor of Fragrance?
Han wondered, but still nodded with satisfaction. “Not bad, you didn’t disappoint me after all.”
The Calming Incense was one of the most basic incenses in Daoist cultivation. Its ingredients weren’t difficult to find, and Han had already acquired them in Black Cloud Town.
To make Calming Incense, you first select the ingredients, then refine and purify them. During this process, you have to control the temperature precisely—neither too high nor too low, but just right.
Next, the refined materials are mixed in exact proportions. This step also requires precision, as any mistake could ruin the incense. It demands full concentration and control through mental energy.
Finally, the incense is formed using the soul's power, with the help of a special seal, in order to create a Daoist incense.
Each step has strict requirements, and the attention to detail is no less than that of pill refining.
“I didn’t expect making incense to be so easy,” An Lang said, pride radiating from her as she floated around Han, rising and falling in the air.
“You’ve only learned to make Calming Incense. Don’t get too proud just yet.”
“Hmph, when I reach the peak of fragrance, I’ll be unmatched in the world! With me, An Lang, the heavens themselves will bow! Watch me, Master, I’ll become a Master of Incense and with a single incense, I’ll help you ascend to immortality!”
“That’s what I said. Don’t copy me.”
“I’m An Lang!”
Han sent An Lang back to the Ghost Dwelling, and it was already past midnight. It was time to chop trees again.
He checked his status panel, and sure enough, his stamina was still at four points. His breakthrough into the Meridian Realm had not increased his stamina, which aligned with the stamina rules he had deduced.
Even without a stamina boost, Han knew that breaking through in cultivation would increase the quality of the loot he obtained.
He swung his axe, and to his surprise, only one item dropped.
[Weaponry: Celestial Bow (with three arrows)]
[A powerful weapon crafted from Celestial Meteorite Iron and the tendons of a Heavenly Serpent. The arrows have properties of long-range shots and immense power. With this bow, even the sky can be pierced!]
A true weapon!
Not a broken one, nor a semi-complete weapon, but a fully formed weapon!
Han was elated. He hadn't expected the Daqian Immortal Tree to drop something like this.
Then, he felt a bit regretful. Why didn’t it drop a sword weapon instead?
He held the Celestial Bow and felt a warmth emanating from it.
It was a five-foot bow, with irregular markings along its length, yet it had an undeniable charm.
Three crimson arrows were affixed to the bow, matching perfectly with the Celestial Bow. These arrows, like the bow, were crafted from Celestial Meteorite Iron.
Holding a complete weapon felt completely different from holding a semi-weapon. It was a whole new level.
“Long-range, immense power, two major properties,” Han murmured. He was very pleased with the Celestial Bow.
A true weapon, unlike a hundred-forged tool or a semi-weapon, wasn’t just tougher or sharper. It carried inherent properties.
He took a moment to admire the Celestial Bow. It was his first complete weapon, and it held great significance.
[Martial Dao Seed: Flying Arrow Technique]
[Invisible and undetectable, the arrow will always hit its target. Even ghosts and gods can’t predict it, and neither dragons nor tigers can stop it.]
[Rare Pill: True Qi Pill]
[Can increase or restore True Qi.]
The second stamina drop brought two items: the True Qi Pill, which Han had seen before and could now use, and a new Martial Dao Seed, a first for him.
The Flying Arrow Technique!
After receiving the Celestial Bow, now this.
This arrow technique was something Han couldn’t ignore.
He planted the Martial Dao Seed in the Soul Village. In a few days, he would harvest it, and the Flying Arrow Technique would be his, no need for any extra effort on his part.
[Rare Item: Calming Smoke]
[Formed from the clouds and mist in the sky, it can be absorbed into the meridians to stabilize True Qi and prevent it from running wild.]
[Rare Pill: Eye Cleansing Pill]
[Can improve vision and enhance eyesight.]
[Rare Pill: Cleansing Body Pill]
[Can cleanse the body, making it lighter and more agile.]
One rare item, two pills—very direct effects. Han used them right away, absorbing them into his foundation.
The final stamina drop yielded a surprising result: just one item.
Could it be another weapon?
[Special Item: Spatial Ring]
[Crafted from a portion of space, it can store items (but not living beings). It is automatically bound to the user, Han, and can be unbound at will.]
Good, good, good!
Though not a weapon, this was something Han had desperately wanted for a long time.
Spatial equipment!
He held the ring and sensed its contents. It had a storage space of roughly 100 cubic meters.
It was huge!
The Taibai Bag that Bai Ruoyue gave Han only had about 15 cubic meters of space.
Today, he had received both a weapon and a spatial ring.
From a bird gun to a cannon!
