"Senior, please ask, this junior will definitely answer everything I know," the gray-robed old man said, overjoyed.

"Where did you get this Yama Cauldron?" Han Li asked in a deep voice.

"Reporting to Senior, this cauldron was obtained by this junior in a ruin within the Heavenly Grief Immortal Domain," the gray-robed old man respectfully replied.

"Heavenly Grief Immortal Domain?" Han Li frowned slightly. From his knowledge of the various Immortal Domains of the Immortal World, he had not heard of this Immortal Domain.

"That is a small Immortal Domain, and the spiritual energy inside is thin, and there are few resources. The Heavenly Court has also abandoned it and did not set up a cross-domain teleportation array there, so few people know about it. This junior was chased by enemies back then and, in a panic, was swallowed by a space crack, and only then accidentally arrived there," the gray-robed old man explained.

"Oh, you are quite frank," Han Li glanced at the gray-robed old man and said.

"Senior is asking, and this junior dares not have any falsehoods," the gray-robed old man said with lowered eyes.

"I saw the place name Yama's Mansion in the inscriptions on the cauldron. Do you know this place?" Han Li narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

He paid attention to the gray-robed old man and others, and even did not hesitate to consume vitality to forcibly seize control of the Yama Cauldron with the Mantra Transference, precisely for the words "Yama's Mansion" on this cauldron.

Since the last time he traveled back through time and space, he has been searching for news about Yama's Mansion, but no matter how he inquired, he could not find any information about this place.

Today, he finally found a clue, so how could he give up?

"Yama's Mansion? This junior has never heard of this name either. Perhaps it is a place in the Heavenly Grief Immortal Domain. It is said that it is close to the Nine Nether Yama Land, and there are many places with the name 'Yama'," the gray-robed old man said.

Han Li frowned upon hearing this and looked at Ti Hun.

Ti Hun nodded slightly.

"Your answer is honest, and I will keep my promise and spare your life for now. You will stay here for the time being. After a while, take me to the Heavenly Grief Immortal Domain, and then I will let you go," Han Li said.

"Thank you, Senior," the gray-robed old man said, overjoyed, and hurriedly agreed.

Han Li waved his hand, and the gray-robed old man's eyes went dark, and he immediately fainted and fell to the ground.

He ignored this person and looked at other places in the dark red space, finally focusing his gaze on the six stone tablets around the square.

"These stone tablets are quite extraordinary, and the power of the laws they contain is also very strange. They can even resurrect the dead. I wonder what kind of laws they are?" Ti Hun's beautiful eyes flashed with light, seemingly very interested in these stone tablets.

"Although there are three thousand Great Daos, in reality, there are countless laws in this world. How can you and I exhaust them? You said earlier that one of Sun Chongshan's group was interesting. Were you referring to Sun Chongshan?" Han Li sighed first, then changed the subject.

"No, I'm talking about this woman," Ti Hun pointed to a red-skirted young woman standing to the side.

Han Li followed Ti Hun's finger and was slightly stunned.

"Her soul is completely different from that of a normal person, containing a strange death aura. Now I know it's because of these six stone tablets," Ti Hun continued.

"This treasure is biased towards Yin and cold attributes and is not suitable for me, so I will hand it over to you to control. Since you are interested in this place, study it carefully and keep an eye on this Sun Chongshan at the same time," Han Li was not interested in what Ti Hun said and waved his hand to release a dark red light that merged into Ti Hun's body.

"Thank you, Master, for bestowing the treasure," Ti Hun was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

Han Li did not stay here any longer, his figure flashed and left this place, returning directly to his residence without meeting Yu Menghan again.

Ti Hun quickly returned to her residence. She did not enter the Flower Branch Space again but sat down cross-legged near Han Li, studying the Yama Cauldron in her hand.

The Golden Gale Winds outside the window continued, but the Sun Moon Divine Boat had survived the most difficult period, and its forward speed gradually increased.

About half a month later, the Sun Moon Divine Boat finally passed through the Golden Gale Wind disaster, its speed returned to its previous level, and it continued toward Jiu Yuan City.

Ten years passed quickly, and the Sun Moon Divine Boat finally arrived at Jiu Yuan City.

Han Li stood in front of the window, looking at the giant city ahead. Even though he had seen many majestic and spectacular cities and regions, he was still quite shocked.

The first feeling Jiu Yuan City gave people was height. The city walls were towering, tens of thousands of feet high, completely comparable to some of the towering giant peaks nearby. The city walls were like a natural barrier in front, and the entire city was like an incomparably tall beast, entrenched on the earth.

The second feeling was size. Jiu Yuan City had a vast and boundless area, and even his vision could not see the edge. The tall city walls stretched continuously, covering several mountain ranges nearby.

There were countless streets in the city, and the flow of people was like a shuttle. The escape light in the city was as dense as clouds, and everywhere was a scene of unparalleled prosperity.

Han Li took a deep breath, retracted his gaze, and sat down cross-legged.

The Sun Moon Divine Boat flew down from mid-air and landed towards the city.

Half an hour later, he walked out of a tall tower building in the city, mixed into the crowd on the street, and quickly disappeared.

Among the crowd walking out of the high tower, a white-clothed nun walked out quickly. It was Yu Menghan.

She looked around, seemingly searching for someone, but did not find them, and could not help but reveal a look of disappointment on her face. She stood there for a moment and walked away.

Han Li mixed into the crowd on the street, walking quickly forward.

Although it was his first time in Jiu Yuan City, he walked like flying, without the slightest hesitation.

Jiao San had already informed him of some of the situation in Jiu Yuan City in advance, as well as the location of the most crucial foothold.

On both sides of the street were tall shops, selling all kinds of goods, immortal artifacts, pills, materials, and so on, everything that one could wish for, even slightly better than Liu Jin City.

Moreover, the city was very lively, seemingly preparing for some festival celebration, and many shops were decorating.

Han Li's eyes flashed, but he did not stop to investigate and continued to move forward quickly.

This was already the territory of the Jiu Yuan Temple, a major force. Although he did not feel being investigated, who knew how many eyes were monitoring all parts of the city.

According to the news obtained from Jiao San, the foothold was the safest place. Apart from there, he had to be twelve times more careful when going to any other place.

Half a day later, Han Li came to a small alley on the edge of Jiu Yuan City. There was a small inn in the alley, but it was tightly closed.

He carefully looked at the front door of the inn, especially at the stone lion at the entrance of the inn. He looked at it several times, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he walked forward and knocked on the door panel rhythmically.

"Who is it?" A lazy voice came from inside, but the door did not open.

"Boss, are there any vacant rooms in the inn? I would like to stay here," Han Li said, still knocking on the door rhythmically as he spoke.

There was silence inside the door for a while until Han Li stopped knocking, and then it slowly opened.

"You want to stay at the inn?" A sixteen- or seventeen-year-old short-shirted teenager poked his head out from inside, looked Han Li up and down, and asked.

"That's right. I've come to Jiu Yuan City to do some small business and need to stay here for half a year," Han Li said, speaking the password.

"Oh, then please come in." The short-shirted teenager's eyes lit up slightly, and he made way for Han Li to enter, then immediately closed the door.

Han Li's eyes flashed. As soon as he stepped into the small courtyard, he seemed to have entered a special space. Obviously, there was a special restriction around the inn, and the invisible pressure around him suddenly weakened a lot.

He felt relieved and followed the short-shirted teenager to a room in the inn. A wealthy middle-aged man was here, using an abacus and flipping through account books. He only raised his head when he heard footsteps.

"Shopkeeper, this guest wants to stay at the inn," the short-shirted teenager said.

"May I ask the guest's name and how long you will be staying?" The wealthy shopkeeper glanced at Han Li, waved for the short-shirted teenager to leave, closed the door, and asked with a cold expression.

"My name is Han Li, and I plan to stay here for half a year," Han Li reported his name, took out his previous red mask, shook it slightly in his hand, and then immediately put it away.

These were all passwords.

"So it's Senior Han, welcome. Senior Jiao San has already instructed that you stay here temporarily," the wealthy shopkeeper said with a smile on his face, somewhat flatteringly.

"Is Fellow Daoist Jiao San here?" Han Li asked.

"Senior Jiao San is not here at the moment, but she sent a message, asking you to rest assured and live here. She will come to see you soon to discuss the specific mission content," the wealthy shopkeeper said.

"Then I will wait for a while longer," Han Li frowned slightly, and after a moment, he relaxed and said.

"Senior, please follow me." The wealthy shopkeeper nodded repeatedly and personally led Han Li to the inner courtyard.

After turning a few corners, the two came to a small courtyard with green bricks and tiles, which was very clean and tidy.

Han Li was very satisfied with this place and nodded.

"Senior Han, you have traveled a long way and must be tired. Rest early. If you need anything, just knock on the small bell in the courtyard. I will take my leave first," the wealthy shopkeeper said respectfully and was about to leave.

"Don't rush to leave yet. I have something I want to ask you," Han Li stopped the shopkeeper.

"Senior, you can ask anything. I will definitely answer everything I know," the wealthy shopkeeper was stunned and immediately nodded.

"When I just entered the city, there were lanterns and decorations everywhere. What happened?" Han Li asked.

"Senior, don't you know? The Heavenly Court's envoy is about to arrive at Jiu Yuan Temple to issue the thirty-six places for the Bodhi Feast. Everyone in the city is making preparations," the wealthy shopkeeper said somewhat stunned.

"Oh, is there such a thing? I have been busy cultivating recently and have not heard of it. I know about the Bodhi Feast, but what's the matter with these thirty-six places?" Han Li asked.

"The Bodhi Feast is the number one event in the Heavenly Court. Everyone in the Great True Immortal World wants to participate, but the Heavenly Court's Bodhi Feast is not something you can attend if you want to. You need to hold a place issued by the Heavenly Court. Every time before the Bodhi Feast begins, the Heavenly Court will issue places to the major Immortal Domains, and then the internal forces of the major Immortal Domains will compete to win the right to belong to the places. The Great Gold Source Immortal Domain is the same. This time, the Heavenly Court issued thirty-six places to the Great Gold Source Immortal Domain. At that time, all the large and small forces in the entire Great Gold Source Immortal Domain will gather in Jiu Yuan City to compete and decide the ownership of the places," the wealthy shopkeeper said.

"I see. How long will it be before the Heavenly Court's envoy arrives at Jiu Yuan City?" Han Li asked, suddenly enlightened.

"There is no definite rumor about this, but it should be soon," the wealthy shopkeeper said.

Han Li nodded and asked a few more questions about the so-called place competition, then sent the shopkeeper away.

He came to the room in the courtyard, habitually laid down several layers of restrictions around it, then sat down, his face revealing a pensive look.

Jiao San told him to arrive at Jiu Yuan City within thirty years. This was almost the same time as the Heavenly Court's envoy was arriving. The Reincarnation Palace's mission this time was likely related to the Bodhi Feast's place competition.

Han Li shook his head and stopped thinking about this matter. His gaze looked towards the depths of Jiu Yuan City.

"Jin Tong, wait for me, I will definitely rescue you," he thought to himself, then sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
