"What do you want to exchange? Surely you won't teach me the refining formula for nothing?" Han Li asked coldly, without any signs of jubilation.
"I need you to find a way to dispel the assimilation bond with the Heavenvoid Cauldron from me. Additionally, before you pass away or ascend to the Immortal Realm, I require your temporary protection for a while! Although I already possess grade eight cultivation, I have yet to experience the Metamorphosis Tribulation due to staying within the Heavenvoid Cauldron. I fear that I will need to rely on your strength to safely transcend the tribulation. On my own strength, it could be rather dangerous," the Heaventide Beast stated unreservedly, listing several conditions at once.
"Is that all?" Han Li asked, his expression unchanged.
"If this old one were to make any further demands, I'm afraid you might indeed begin to harbor thoughts of killing me?" the Heaventide Beast chuckled, 'Hehe.'
