"How many years have I been in seclusion here?"

The voice echoed again from the inner hall.

"Hmm?"

Hearing Chen Tian's words, Han Wuming couldn't help but be slightly surprised, because he clearly felt that Chen Tian's tone was completely different from before.

If Chen Tian's tone previously contained a trace of ferocity, then Chen Tian at this moment was like a deep spring, calm and unperturbed, unaffected by honor or disgrace, causing one's heart to tremble!

Han Wuming was also startled by Chen Tian's calm yet infinitely majestic voice, but fortunately, he quickly regained his senses and hurriedly said, "Reporting to Master, it has been five years and three months since you went into seclusion!"

The reason why Han Wuming remembered the time so clearly was not because he cared about Chen Tian, but because he was completely driven by hatred.

Because every month when he went to help Chen Tian collect immortal crystal stones, he spent it in endless humiliation, and time for him was truly like sitting on pins and needles!

"Alas… unknowingly, it has already been five years?"

Chen Tian sighed in the inner hall, and after a moment of silence, continued, "You've come at the right time. I have something I want to say to you."

Han Wuming was originally recalling his humiliating life over the years, feeling endless sorrow, but after hearing Chen Tian's words, he was immediately shocked, his eyes almost popping out of his head.

But after a while, Han Wuming's face couldn't help but reveal endless sorrow, and he said helplessly, "Master, what do you want to say? Is it that the monthly immortal crystal stones are not enough and you want to increase the amount? Don't worry, this old servant will take care of this matter with all his heart!"

Han Wuming felt bitter in his heart, he knew that Chen Tian's opening his mouth would definitely not be a good thing, so he might as well express his loyalty in advance, and perhaps exchange it for a trace of Chen Tian's favor.

But after hearing Han Wuming's words, Chen Tian smiled and shook his head, and said, "When did I say that I wanted you to prepare more immortal crystal stones?"

"Huh?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Han Wuming was first stunned, and then asked with some suspicion, "Then Master, what do you mean?"

Han Wuming really couldn't figure out, if Chen Tian wasn't here for the immortal crystal stones, what else could he be here for?

At this moment, the screen in front of Han Wuming suddenly retracted to the right, and Chen Tian walked out with a smile on his face.

After speculating in his heart, Han Wuming immediately put away all disrespect and stood obediently without saying a word.

At this time, Han Wuming's mood was complicated, and he didn't even know how to face Chen Tian.

Chen Tian ignored Han Wuming, glanced at him lightly, and said, "I plan to go out in a few days, and before that, I want you to prepare something for me."

At this time, Han Wuming no longer dared to resist Chen Tian in any way, so after hearing his words, he nodded and said, "Okay, Master, tell me, what do you need me to prepare?"

After hearing this, Chen Tian revealed a strange smile, and then flipped his hand and took out a emerald green jade bottle.

Chen Tian handed the jade bottle to Han Wuming and said, "Help me go to the Holy Demon Cave and fill a bottle of demon blood from the corpses of the ancient demons there."

"Ah? Master, what do you want demon blood for?" Hearing Chen Tian's instructions, Han Wuming was stunned and looked at Chen Tian blankly.

After hearing this, Chen Tian's face immediately darkened, and he said coldly, "What, do you want to know so much?"

Seeing Chen Tian's appearance, Han Wuming's heart suddenly panicked, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "No… no… Master, I was wrong!"

"Hmph, just do your own thing, don't interfere with things you shouldn't, and don't ask questions you shouldn't. This is the first time, and I hope there won't be a second time, do you understand?" After Chen Tian reprimanded him with a gloomy tone, a flash of purple light floated the jade bottle he took out in front of Han Wuming.

"Yes, Master, this old servant knows his mistake!" In a panic, Han Wuming took the jade bottle. He almost forgot that Chen Tian was the kind of person who didn't like others asking questions.

"Alright, step back, I hope to see the demon blood today!" Chen Tian closed his eyes and didn't look at Han Wuming again.

Han Wuming felt bitter in his heart, but he didn't dare to say more. He respectfully bowed and retreated with the bottle in both hands.

After waiting until Han Wuming was far away, Chen Tian opened his eyes, and then walked back to the inner hall.

On the ground of the inner hall were scattered a pile of dull gray stones.

These were originally colorful immortal crystal stones, but after Chen Tian used up the spiritual power contained within them, they turned into pieces of waste stone.

There were many similar waste stones. Accumulated together, they were like a small mountain, all consumed by Chen Tian in the past five years.

Looking at these stones that had become very ordinary, Chen Tian frowned, then waved his sleeves, and a gust of yin wind suddenly swept out, sweeping the stones and blowing them into a piece of mud and sand, rolling them out of the hall.

With the disappearance of this pile of stones, the inner hall was once again clean.

Chen Tian sat cross-legged on the futon and began to concentrate on thinking.

In these five years, Chen Tian, with the help of the Spirit Gathering Array, Blood Spirit Pill, Blood Fiend Pill, and countless immortal crystal stones, finally managed to raise his cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Spirit 引 Spirit Realm.

But at this time, something that troubled Chen Tian came.

That was that just like when he was in the Spirit Activation Realm, even if he cultivated to the Great Perfection Realm, he was still unable to break through.

Chen Tian originally thought that such a thing was just an accidental occurrence, but he didn't expect that the exact same thing would happen again this time.

Cultivating to the Great Perfection but being unable to break through, this is really a depressing thing.

Back then, Chen Tian absorbed the demonic energy from the ancient demon corpse in the Holy Demon Cave before finally being able to break through to the Spirit 引 Spirit Realm.

But this time, Chen Tian really didn't know what to do.

In fact, Chen Tian asked Han Wuming to fetch demon blood just to try the previous method again.

However, in Chen Tian's heart, he didn't think that this time would be successful.

Because Chen Tian remembered very clearly that when he was in the Holy Demon Cave, absorbing demonic energy was very effective at first, but as time went on, Chen Tian found that no matter how much demonic energy he absorbed, he could not repair the damaged immortal bloodline in his body.

Chen Tian then speculated that maybe demonic energy was no longer useful to him!
