The conditions proposed by Nanlong Hou and his companion were met with no objections from Wang Tiangu and the other cultivators.

Given the duo's cultivation levels and their roles as initiators, it was only natural for them to receive a larger share of the treasures, and everyone silently agreed.

To avoid any delays, they decided to depart immediately after the trade fair ended, allowing themselves only two days to prepare.

After making heart demon vows to keep this matter confidential, everyone departed.

Han Li noted the confidence of Nanlong Hou and his companion, suggesting they were unafraid of any underhanded tactics from the others.

Indeed, with the location and the method to break the seal known only to these two, it would be difficult for others to plot anything against them given their cunning and abilities.

Han Li had his own reasons for agreeing to this venture.

Since reaching the Nascent Soul stage, his progress with the Green Primordial Sword Art had been painfully slow due to the lack of suitable pills.

Han Li estimated that, without fortuitous encounters, it would take him two to three hundred years of diligent cultivation to reach the peak of the initial Nascent Soul stage. Advancing further to the mid-stage would depend on luck and opportunity, with innate talent being less critical.

After the trade fair, Han Li had originally planned to spend a hundred years in seclusion, mastering his secret techniques and then traveling to seek ancient relics and natural treasures.

This was his only hope to find a breakthrough to the next realm sooner.

Now, with the opportunity to obtain the famed treasures of Fallen Devil Valley, Han Li couldn't pass it up.

This could very well be his chance!

The other Nascent Soul cultivators likely had similar thoughts.

They had been stuck in the initial stage for countless years and wouldn't miss any opportunity for a breakthrough.

The demonic cultivators of Fallen Devil Valley were not ordinary; they were among the top cultivators of ancient times. The techniques and pills they left behind would naturally be extraordinary.

This alone was enough to tempt Han Li and the others.

Furthermore, since the Young Master of the Ghost Spirit Sect would also be participating, Han Li would not hesitate to eliminate him if the chance arose during the journey.

As long as Wang Tiangu didn't catch him in the act, what could the Ghost Spirit Sect do? The Ghost and Heaven Dao alliances were enemies, after all.

Pondering this, Han Li made his way back to his residence along a stone-paved street.

Unbeknownst to him, Wang Tiangu was walking slowly a few streets away, with Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan following in silence.

"After we return, tell me more about your grudge with that person. Judging by his demeanor, he still harbors resentment towards you. You and your wife should stay close to me to avoid any surprise attacks," Wang Tiangu instructed slowly.

"Yes, Uncle. I never expected that a moment's decision would create such an enemy. I am surprised at how quickly he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage," Wang Chan replied respectfully, though he felt a pang of frustration at the thought of Han Li's progress.

"Hmph! Don't be too disheartened. With the supreme power of the Blood Spirit Art, you and your wife together might not need to fear him. Once you both break through to the seventh layer, you can form your own Nascent Souls. Then we'll see who troubles whom! But be cautious during our trip to the Mulberry Plain. Even if I must leave you, don't be caught alone. Together, you should be able to protect yourselves," Wang Tiangu advised coldly.
