Inside the secret room, Han Tieshan smiled at the guests from the Situ Family and said, "Everyone, since we have the same goal, let's get straight to the point. I wonder what Brother Feihong plans to do about the He Clan? "

"Hehe, Brother Han is indeed generous. Then let's get straight to the point! "Since we're in an alliance, then the He family can't have a single person living in this world anymore, not even a single servant girl!" Situ Feihong sipped his tea and said with an indifferent expression.

Looking at Situ Feihong, Han Tieshan's eyes were deep as he smiled faintly, "Brother Feihong is indeed domineering!" There was only one person in this world who possessed such boldness. Brother Feihong! Tie Shan is truly ashamed of himself! "

"Hehe, Brother Han is too modest. Everyone in the nine great clans knows that in the ancient times, the Han Clan was once a great clan with our name. It was just that for some reason, his strength had undergone some changes. Fortunately, with a heaven warping talent like Brother Han, the rise of the Han Family will be imminent! " Situ Feihong had a praising smile on his face as he spoke.

Hearing Situ Feihong's words, Han Tieshan didn't reply. He only gave a slight smile as a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes.

Pausing, Han Tieshan continued, "In that case, let's discuss how to deal with the He family."

"However, there is one thing I must say first. That is, the matter of us joining hands to deal with the He Clan must come after the Han Clan is qualified to participate in the Ranking Tournament."

Han Tieshan didn't explain his words at all. After all, they were all the Patriarchs of the top families. How could they be as wise as ordinary people? Thus, sometimes words were better than words.

"Alright! No problem! Even if Brother Han hadn't said it, Feihong would have done the same. "Then, why don't we go to the border first and have a look?" Situ Feihong took a sip of the fragrant tea with a smile still on his face.

On the other side, the cold cry that originated from his soul veins had also officially started to cultivate.

Soul veins, as the name implies, are the source of soul power in this world. Or rather, they are a type of pure, natural soul power that is also born from the heaven and earth origin energy. This was pure energy that had no attributes whatsoever. Anyone who absorbed it would be able to turn it into their own soul power without needing to spend any effort to refine it. However, although the refining process could be skipped, it was still necessary to leave behind a soul mark. This point was equivalent to binding the masterless object with blood. In other words, you must have this soul power recognize your body and treat you as your master, as your new home, so that it can be used by you to its fullest potential.

This was exactly what Han Ming was doing at this very moment. His soul sat cross-legged in the Alchemy Space. His eyes were slightly closed and his aura was well-proportioned. Streams of soul power slowly surged toward his Dantian before slowly fusing into it and revolving within his Dantian. However, they didn't enter one of the three Star Meridians. This wasn't because of the rejection of soul power or the lack of cold cried. It was because Han Ming had his own plans.

"Soul veins are indeed a good thing. This soul power was so pure that there was almost no need to refine it anymore! However, this was only for others. After all, my soul is a Holy Spirit. Be it in strength or spirit, it is much stronger than ordinary people. Therefore, the requirement of soul power was much higher than ordinary people. The soul power that is being released from this soul vein seems pure, but to me, it's still too much impurities! " As he watched the streams of soul power enter his dantian, Han Ming muttered in his heart.

Yes, Han Ming's soul was far stronger than an ordinary person's. He was a top existence in the world, a Saint Soul. Sacred souls also had high requirements for soul power. After all, these powers all needed to use the soul as a medium to transform into offensive moves. If there was too much soul power, it would directly affect the attack power of a Saint Soul. If there was less or no impurities, it was an attack that could be triggered by a certain degree of improvement in the Saint Soul. This sort of situation was similar to refining medicine. If the quality of the medicinal ingredients used was not good, then the medicinal effects of the medicinal pills refined would be greatly reduced. However, if every medicinal herb was of the highest quality, then as long as there was no problem with the method, the medicinal herbs that came out would also be of the highest quality. The medicinal effects would also be extremely strong.

Slowly exhaling a breath, Han Ming placed his hands on his knees and formed a spell sign. Then, as if he was stroking smoke, his movements slowly circled in front of him, as if he was using his hands to gently caress the soul power, and directly drew it towards his Dantian. Then, he separated out a strand of pure soul force and formed an illusionary vortex in his dantian. He then pulled the soul force into the vortex, which rapidly rotated.

And every time it rotated, some tiny black matter would shoot out from the whirlpool and slowly fall into a corner of the dantian like ashes, before being transported outside of the body. This was Han Ming's unique soul power refinement process. During this process, Han Ming continuously circulated his soul power. Because of the great centrifugal force, the impurities within the soul power were continuously being ejected out, being continuously purified. Of course, in this process, the role of the spiritual force of Han Ming was crucial. If he didn't have control over his soul power, it would have been thrown out along with him.

As it was being refined bit by bit, and imprinted with Han Ming's soul mark, all of this soul power obediently poured into the fire star in Han Ming's body, nourishing it bit by bit until it returned to its original state. Honestly speaking, when he had just awakened, the three streaks of starlight in his cold dantian were extremely pitiful and appalling to look at!

If Jupiter's and Mercury were beans before, then after Han Ming used up all of his soul power, the three stars would have directly become the size of sesame seeds! From walnuts to sesame seeds, just based on the size alone, one could tell how big of a loss Han Ming had suffered this time!

But luckily, this time, he paid a huge price in exchange for a huge reward. In the past, if Han Ming wanted to recover all of his lost soul power, it would be impossible to do so within a year or so! But now, in the depths of this Soul Vein, he had used only half a month's time to completely restore the fiery figure, Xing Xuan, back to its original state!

Moreover, it was not as simple as returning to its original state! At this moment, the Fire Star Jade in Han Ming's Dantian had already reached its maximum size! It was as big as an apple! As a result, this meant that the current Han Ming not only stabilized his cultivation level at the first level of Heavenly Soul, but also reached the peak of the first level!

However, this did not make Han Ming happy at all. After all, a Saint Soul was born with full soul power. In other words, once a cultivator reached a new level or realm, they would only need to be nurtured for a period of time before they would be able to reach the peak of perfection.

Therefore, in this soul vein, what Han Ming really hoped for was that the other two stars would be able to supply him with as much soul power as possible, allowing these two soybean-like stars to grow stronger. Even if they didn't reach their peak state, at least … Don't be so useless.

One more thing was that the metal-type soul power within his body was still lacking by far. If he could increase his metal-type soul power by a large amount, even if he couldn't form Xing Xuan, it would at least save him a lot of time in his later stages of cultivation. After all, after reaching the first level of the Heavenly Soul Realm, Han Ming would have to find an opportunity to set off and search for his mother. When he thought about how he had reached the level of being able to look for his mother and be able to see her, Han Ming felt extremely excited in his heart.

But before that, he had something more important to do. That was, he could advise the Han family as much as possible, or he could pave the way for the Han family to enter the top ten families' ranking competition. Then, he could smoothly obtain a good ranking in the ranking competition and return to the top ten families.

Even though, with his current strength, he was no big deal compared to the top ten families, and would not pose much of a threat to them. Thus, his authority was limited. The reason why the top ten clans were able to rule over the entire continent for such a long period of time was because they were extremely powerful. And its main combat power was the enormous group of Heavenly Soul Cultivators. There were indeed some people on this continent who were not from the top ten clans. They had relied on their own hard work to slowly reach the Heavenly Soul Realm. However, the top ten clans will not care about how hard you work. They only care about your strength, Heavenly Soul Realm. As long as you are a Heavenly Soul Cultivator, you will be recruited by the ten great families, and they will provide you with all sorts of good conditions, allowing you to join one of the ten great families and become part of their Heavenly Soul Legion.

Therefore, in order to get a good ranking in the top ten families, strength was essential! Even though Han Ming knew that the Han Family must have many Heavenly Souls behind their backs. However, if he could gain an extra portion, then so be it. After all, what he did was not really the Han family, this sect.

In his heart, the sect did not hold much weight. With regards to the surname Han, Han Ming's only sense of belonging was the one that originated from Wu Yan Town and moved to his home in Wu Yan City, his own father! Therefore, all of this was done for the sake of his father. He hoped that through his own hard work, his father would be able to have a place in this enormous sect, allowing his father to gloriously recognize his ancestors, and with the help of his clan's enormous resources, his strength would increase step by step, finally reaching the strength to meet up with his mother.

And all of this was based on his hard work. If he could rely on his own strength to win honor for the Han Family, gain a huge advantage for the Han Family in the ten great families ranking competition, and achieve a great merit, then his status would definitely improve, and his request would definitely be accepted by the Coldsteel Mountain. After all, to a meritorious general, this was nothing.

Therefore, under this mental state, Han Ming continued to work hard to nourish the Wood Water Jade and the Star Jade in his Dantian, replenishing their soul power!

On the other side, time had returned to Coldsteel Mountain. He brought along Situ Feihong and a group of elders from the Situ Family to carefully observe the border between the He and Han Families, as well as the preparations made by the Han Family.

In the hall, Situ Feihong was sitting at the seat of honor with a smile on his face. He looked at the elders in the hall and slowly said, "Elders, what are your thoughts on this Han family trip?"

"Reporting to the patriarch, from what I see, this Han family has made up their minds to cooperate with our Situ Family. Moreover, they have made up their minds to rejoin the ranks of the top ten families!" The Sixth Elder said.

"I don't think so. The Han family is still before the Primordial Era, so the other eight great families have unanimously passed through with us. We will suppress them and expel them from the top ten clans." A wolf's ambition, you have to be on your guard! " The Third Elder shook his head.

At this moment, the Great Elder smiled and said, "Everyone, there is no need to worry. The Han Family wants to become one of the top ten clans once again. However, they had come in. It was up to them to decide what position they were in. "Everyone, do you remember that the Han family once said that if you are ranked at the bottom, you will become a follower of our Situ Family that is a thousand years old?!"

Listening to the various elders in the hall, Situ Feihong faintly smiled and raised his hand to indicate for them to be silent. Then, a cold light flashed in his eyes as he slowly said, "What you have said makes sense! However, don't forget that my Situ Family is the one that should rule over the ten great clans. Frost Iron Mountain is indeed an extraordinary talent, but the more they are like this, the more we cannot let them grow. Otherwise, one day, my Situ Family will end up like the Han Family from before the Ancient Era. Therefore, if he wanted to enter this ranking tournament, he could let him enter, but he had to bear the responsibility of destroying the He family as well! At that time … "Heh heh heh …"

After saying that, the cruel smile on Situ Feihong's face became even more intense! An extremely sinister aura continuously floated around the spacious hall and did not disappear for a long time.
