Mortal's Journey: Immortal World

Han Li had just stepped into the Flower Branch space when his brows furrowed, feeling that something seemed amiss.

Before he could ponder further, a booming sound assaulted him, penetrating deep into his heart, mixed with piercing, high-pitched ghost wails that fluctuated erratically, causing immense irritation.

He felt his mind sway, and his limbs involuntarily moved. He hurriedly activated the Soul Refining Art to stabilize his spirit, and then looked towards the source of the sound.

The source of the ghost wails was none other than the pavilion where Ti Hun was in secluded cultivation.

At this moment, the pavilion was enveloped in a thick, ink-like black mist, swirling violently to form a black vortex. Within it, faint ghost images flickered in and out, impacting the surrounding restrictions of the pavilion and causing them to tremble.

Fortunately, these restrictions were personally refined by Han Li and infused with the power of the Time Law; otherwise, they might not have been able to withstand the impact of the black mist.

"What's going on?" Han Li hurriedly flew over and released a wisp of his spiritual sense to probe inside the restrictions.

However, as soon as his spiritual sense entered the black mist vortex, it was immediately swallowed. A powerful devouring force emanated from the vortex, subtly attempting to invade his mind.

Han Li quickly retracted his spiritual sense, thus blocking the strange devouring power emanating from the vortex.

His brows twitched, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

Without needing much explanation, this situation was undoubtedly caused by Ti Hun within the pavilion. It seemed that Ti Hun's absorption of the U巢 Ghost King's vitality had led to another breakthrough.

However, Han Li's expression then turned thoughtful. He couldn't interfere with the current situation and could only rely on Ti Hun to overcome it alone. With Ti Hun's abilities, everything should be fine.

He then raised his hand and waved, shooting out dozens of golden rays from his hand, which landed near the pavilion and formed an even thicker golden light barrier.

This layer of restriction light also contained the power of the Time Law and resonated with the inner layer of restrictions. The golden light of the two barriers reflected each other, immediately stabilizing the situation.

The ghost wails emanating from within were also largely blocked, having little impact on Han Li's hearing.

He nodded, then went to the newly built pavilion beside the medicine garden.

The three floors of the pavilion were filled with various mineral materials and some spirit treasures and immortal artifacts collected from the Grand Sui Immortal Abode, packed to the brim.

Some of the larger spirit materials were placed on the ground outside the pavilion, piled into several large heaps. As for the spirit herbs and medicines transplanted from the Grand Sui Immortal Abode, they were even more numerous.

He placed Little White on the top floor of the pavilion and erected a protective barrier next to it before feeling at ease.

Han Li then looked at the many treasures inside and outside the pavilion, a look of happiness and headache on his face.

There were too many treasures gathered from the Grand Sui Immortal Abode this time, making them difficult to handle. However, if he were to sell them all, the number of immortal essence stones he could obtain would be unprecedented.

Since leaving the Grand Sui Immortal Abode, he had been busy with various matters and hadn't had time to deal with this. Now he finally had some spare time.

Han Li took out a blank jade slip and carefully inventoried the various treasures in the pavilion, categorizing and recording them.

After working for a whole day, he finally finished organizing the treasures in the pavilion. Then, he went outside and organized and recorded the spirit materials and various spirit herbs and medicines.

Having done all this, Han Li sat down near the pavilion. With a wave of his sleeve, a pile of dazzling objects appeared before him, a pile of storage magical artifacts of various shapes.

These storage magical artifacts belonged to the various cultivators who had fallen in the Grand Sui Immortal Abode, which he had collected along the way, and were considered a major gain of this trip.

The most valuable of these were undoubtedly the storage magical artifacts of She Chan and Lan Yuanzi.

Han Li had previously glanced over She Chan's storage magical artifact but had only looked at the treasures inside without examining them closely.

He first took She Chan's storage magical artifact and waved his hand.

With a "哗啦" sound, a large pile of items appeared on the ground.

Han Li scanned them and revealed a hint of joy.

She Chan, this Grand Luo Realm existence, had indeed not disappointed him, possessing incredibly abundant wealth. Ignoring the various materials and immortal artifacts, there were as many as twenty million immortal essence stones alone.

Moreover, there were thirty to forty special immortal essence stones among them. These immortal essence stones were larger than middle-grade immortal essence stones and emitted a fiery, dazzling light, containing an astonishing fluctuation of immortal spiritual power.

"Are these high-grade immortal essence stones?" Han Li's eyes lit up as he picked up an immortal essence stone and held it in his hand.

A pure and vast fluctuation of immortal spiritual power emanated from it. His body felt as if it were soaked in a hot spring, incomparably comfortable, almost making him groan.

Han Li grinned, looking at the immortal essence stone in his hand with delight.

Although he had never seen one before, he could confirm that the immortal essence stone in front of him was definitely a high-grade immortal essence stone, containing immortal spiritual power that was much richer and purer than that in his body.

If he were to use this high-grade immortal essence stone to restore immortal spiritual power, it would probably only take a few breaths to replenish it.

However, high-grade immortal essence stones were extremely precious, and using them to restore immortal spiritual power would be too extravagant.

Han Li had seen in the records that high-grade immortal essence stones had many wonderful uses, playing a significant role in refining high-level immortal artifacts, breaking through realms, and even beheading corpses and spreading the Dao.

He played with these high-grade immortal essence stones for a while and carefully put them away.

Han Li then put away the other immortal essence stones and sorted the other items before picking up Lan Yuanzi's storage magical artifact.

On that day in the Time Tower, after capturing Lan Yuanzi, he had taken this storage magical artifact.

Han Li immersed his spiritual sense into it and took out the items inside, then sorted them out.

Lan Yuanzi's number of immortal essence stones was less than She Chan's, only about six million, but at most, they were only middle-grade, without a single high-grade one.

He then sorted out the other storage magical artifacts one by one. The owners of these storage magical artifacts had low cultivations, and their wealth was far less than that of She Chan, Lan Yuanzi, and others. All the immortal essence stones added up to only four million.

Han Li put all the immortal essence stones into his own storage magical artifact, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

He had previously accumulated a good fortune by killing people and seizing treasures everywhere, and the immortal essence stones on his body were less than ten million. Now, it had suddenly increased more than threefold.

Moreover, there were many treasures around that had not been processed. If they were all sold, his wealth could probably increase by another double.

Han Li picked out the treasures around him and in the pavilion that might be useful, then took out the Reincarnation Hall mask, opened the transaction light curtain, and placed the other treasures in the Reincarnation Hall for consignment.

There were too many treasures around him, and it took him more than a month to sell most of them, gaining more than thirty million immortal essence stones.

This was because Han Li was eager to dispose of these things and did not ask for high prices; otherwise, it would have been more than this price.

The remaining things were some unpopular items that were not easy to sell, so he placed them on the Reincarnation Hall trading platform, slowly waiting for buyers.

Anyway, he already had more than seventy million immortal essence stones in his hand, enough for him to use for a long time.

With so many immortal essence stones, Han Li was not only wealthy among the Taiyi cultivators, but even among the Grand Luo cultivators. He could even be considered a rich man. Even the largest sect in some small immortal domains might not have as much wealth as him.

With these immortal essence stones as a backing, his confidence in offering a reward to purchase Time Law materials was unprecedentedly high.

It was a pity that materials containing the power of the Time Law were hard to come by. Even if he had immortal essence stones, he had to wait slowly for an opportunity.

Just then, Han Li's eyebrows twitched, and he flew out of the Flower Branch space, arriving at the outer camp.

"Shi Mu Senior." Sang Tu's voice came from outside, without stepping into the camp.

Sang Tu and Yun Bao were standing outside the camp, each accompanied by a dozen followers.

Behind them was a bone-like flying boat, which was not small, about forty to fifty zhang long. However, the material was very ordinary. Beside the flying boat stood two tiger-shaped demon beasts with wings on their backs, which seemed to be used to pull the boat.

Behind the bone-like flying boat were several small flying boats and flying cars, also pulled by these alien tiger-shaped demon beasts, loaded with some goods. It was unknown whether Sang Tu and Yun Bao were planning to transport them to the Eight Desolate Mountain for sale.

"Come in." Han Li sensed the situation outside, his expression slightly moved. Knowing that it was time to depart, he said faintly.

"Shi Mu Senior, our two clans are ready. When do you think we should set off?" Sang Tu asked respectfully.

"Let's go now," Han Li said.

"Yes." Sang Tu and the other agreed.

Han Li walked out of the camp and was personally led onto the flying boat by Sang Tu and the other, and was arranged in the best room.

Then, the flying boat flickered with light, floated up, and was pulled forward by the two winged tiger beasts.

Although the strength of these two winged tiger beasts was not strong, only at the Golden Immortal level, they seemed to be naturally different species with extremely fast flying speeds, not inferior to some Taiyi Realm cultivators.

Seeing this, Han Li, although he had a better flying boat that could speed up the process, might reveal his identity, so he didn't bother.

"Leave the outside matters to you. I want to cultivate in seclusion here. Do not disturb me unless something important happens," he instructed Sang Tu and Yun Bao.

"Yes." Sang Tu and the other hurriedly agreed, then quickly took their leave.

Han Li was quite satisfied to see that the two were so well-behaved. Then he raised his hand and placed restrictions throughout the room. Then, he opened the entrance to the Flower Branch space again, flew in, and sat down in the three-story pavilion.

The things he sold before, although of high value, he did not really care about.

The biggest gain from the last trip to the Grand Sui Immortal Abode was not those things.

Han Li sat silently for a moment, then waved his hand again, and four more items appeared beside him.

The first item was a golden book, rolled into a scroll and roughly tied with a golden thread. It was the scroll that was placed with the Timelight Divine Lamp.

The second item was a purple jade slip, which was the *Five Thunders Orthodox Classic* that the Black Heaven Devil Ancestor gave him.

The third item was a golden ancient lamp, which was the Timelight Divine Lamp. The last item was the Tongtian Sword Formation Diagram.

These four things, plus the white fire pearl of the Refined Flame Firebird, were the biggest gains of the Grand Sui Immortal Abode trip.

Han Li put the Timelight Divine Lamp and other things aside and took the golden scroll first.

He had roughly studied the other three things, but only this book had not been opened, and he did not know what it was.

However, since this book could be placed with the Timelight Divine Lamp, it was definitely not an ordinary scroll.
