"How should I interpret Fellow Daoist's words?" Han Li asked unhurriedly.

"From what I know, the Zhulong Dao is extremely strict with its Cultivation Method scriptures, opening them only to inner disciples and elders. These all require recommendation from inner sect elders, otherwise even with True Immortal cultivation, one can only toil in the position of outer sect retainer, and only after a very long period of testing, will there be a glimmer of hope to enter the inner sect," the shadow said.

"So, Fellow Daoist can find someone to help recommend me?" Han Li raised an eyebrow.

"To be honest, I can't do that. However, I happen to know a way to help Fellow Daoist obtain an inner sect token from a Zhulong Dao elder. With this item, Fellow Daoist can directly join the Zhulong Dao inner sect," the shadow said, shaking his head.

"Since Fellow Daoist knows, please speak plainly. This news is enough for me to pay a reward," Han Li said with a smile.

"Previously, I accepted a mission from the alliance, which required helping a descendant family of a Zhulong Dao inner sect elder solve a major problem. The reward was precisely the Zhulong Dao inner sect token left by this elder. Now, I can transfer this mission to you," the shadow said, looking at Han Li.

"The reward for this mission is not low, I'm afraid the difficulty will not be small either," Han Li said after a moment of contemplation.

"To be honest, the mission did not reveal the specifics of what needs to be done, but only stated that one needs True Immortal cultivation to be able to complete it. As for the specific details, one must go to that family and find that descendant to know," the shadow said, vaguely revealing some of the information he knew.

"Is there a time limit for this mission?" Han Li thought for a moment, then asked.

"No. Those who accept this mission will receive a jade slip. As long as the jade slip does not break on its own, it means the mission is still valid," the shadow said, shaking his head.

"Alright, I'll take this mission. Please hand over the jade slip and other items to me," Han Li said after hearing this, and after carefully considering it for a moment, he accepted the mission.

With that, he waved his hand, and a water-blue storage pouch rose into the air and flew into the center of the cyan light formation plate.

At the same time, a white jade slip slowly flew out of the formation plate.

After Han Li took the jade slip, he examined it briefly and then immersed his spiritual sense in it.

The description of the mission within the jade slip was indeed as simple as that person had said, and it also included a map.

According to the markings on the map, it was a map of the Gu Yun Continent.

However, after carefully browsing it for a moment, he discovered that the map was quite simple, showing only the area near the Zhongming Mountain of the Gu Yun Continent, while the rest of the area was blank.

"This is a tracking map. When you arrive near Zhongming Mountain on the Gu Yun Continent, it will show the shortest route between the holder and the target location," the shadow said, after checking the storage pouch sent by Han Li.

"I see, thank you, Fellow Daoist," Han Li nodded.

The shadow cupped his fist slightly at Han Li, his figure blurred and disappeared, and the formation plate suspended above the sea also swayed slightly, the cyan light faded, and then dissipated.

After putting away his mask, Han Li's figure blurred and transformed into a streak of light, flying straight towards Blackwind Island.

Several days later.

The aftermath of the once-in-a-century auction was still lingering, and the entire Blackwind Island was still bustling with activity. Many shops were seizing this opportunity to desperately attract customers, attracting the cultivators who gathered and traveled here.

The streets of the city were crowded with traffic and people, and many figures were flying in the air, traveling between the ground and the suspended buildings in the sky.

On the wide avenue leading to the center of the city, a young man in a green robe with an ordinary appearance was walking slowly, accompanied by a dark-skinned teenager who also looked ordinary, who were none other than Han Li and Mu Xue.

"Senior Liu, I always thought you were not an ordinary person, but I didn't expect you could really get the qualification to teleport to the Celestial Stellar Tower," the dark-skinned teenager grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Han Li smiled and didn't explain anything.

Seeing this, Mu Xue didn't say anything more. He had genuine respect for this senior expert with a good temper, and of course, there was also a trace of longing and yearning hidden deep in his heart.

"Have you ever thought about leaving Blackwind Island in the future and seeing the outside world?" Han Li asked suddenly, glancing at the various people on the street.

"Go outside? Blackwind Island is already the most prosperous place in the entire Blackwind Sea. If a loose cultivator like me goes to other places, I'm afraid it will be difficult to even make a living," Mu Xue said, stunned at first, and then with some melancholy.

"The world is big, and there is more than just the Blackwind Sea. Your cultivation aptitude is not bad, it's just that the resources are lacking," Han Li said with a smile.

"This junior's cultivation aptitude is not worthy of Senior's attention. I only hope to encounter more employers like Senior in the future, and accumulate more spirit stones, so that I can climb a little further on the path of cultivation," Mu Xue said with a self-deprecating smile.

Han Li looked at this young man who had some similarities with himself, and thought that his aptitude was much worse than his when he first entered the path of cultivation. If he hadn't accidentally obtained the small bottle, he would probably be worse than him.

He smiled slightly and didn't say anything more, heading towards the Celestial Stellar Tower under the guidance of Mu Xue.

About half an hour later, the two reached the end of the main road in the city, and a white stone square with a size of thousands of feet appeared in front of them.

On the square, there were only a few scattered people, walking hurriedly towards a circular stone tower in the center of the square.

Han Li looked up and saw that the stone tower was more than a hundred feet high, all white, with different shades and shapes of lines distributed on it, which seemed to be some kind of special formation pattern.

"Senior, the Celestial Stellar Tower is ahead. This junior will take you here," Mu Xue said respectfully, bowing deeply to Han Li.

When he straightened up, he found that there was no one in front of him, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes.

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his heart:

"Mu Xue, don't be too self-deprecating. The spirit stones in the storage pouch and the Cultivation Method book are parting gifts. If you practice diligently in the future, you may not be able to make a name for yourself."

The dark-skinned teenager was stunned for a moment, and touched his waist, only to find that a storage pouch had appeared there at some point.

He looked around and found the tall cyan figure near the circular tower.

The teenager looked at this figure from afar, and a warm current surged in his heart. He bowed down again and was unwilling to get up for a long time.

Han Li didn't look back at him, and walked straight towards the circular tower.

The circular tower was completely round, and there were no entrances such as doorways visible to the naked eye.

While he was wondering, a strange spiritual force fluctuation came out of the door, and a beam of light flashed in his sleeve, and then an object flew out.

He glanced at it and saw the black token that Island Lord Lu Jun had given him, flying leisurely into the tower, a flash of light, and disappeared.

As a spatial fluctuation rippled, his figure disappeared from the spot.

In the next instant, he was already inside the tower.

Han Li glanced around and saw that the inside of the circular tower was hollow overall, just like an inverted cup.

On the surrounding inner walls, there were densely packed formation runes engraved, and on the nodes where the patterns were connected, there were also inlaid pieces of high-quality spirit stones.

On the white jade-paved ground, there were also circles of ring-shaped formation patterns engraved, from which bursts of faint spatial fluctuations were emitted.

At the moment, there were also thirty or forty people gathered outside the formation patterns, including both ordinary humans and other alien races, each with different expressions, but all with not weak auras.

Han Li's gaze swept over these people, and when he landed on a woman in a red dress, he couldn't help but linger for a moment.

This woman possessed a stunningly beautiful appearance that made people's hearts flutter. Her fiery red dress complemented her graceful figure, outlining her exquisite curves almost perfectly.

Although her features were delicate, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly narrow, revealing a sharp and cold aura, which was in great contrast to her hot and enchanting figure, but it did not make people feel out of place at all.

Many people around were secretly looking at this woman, and although there was a hint of lewdness in their eyes, no one dared to be too presumptuous.

Han Li couldn't help but take a few more glances, but it wasn't because he had any romantic thoughts in his heart, but because he found that he couldn't sense this woman's cultivation aura, so he felt a little wary in his heart.

The red-skirted woman had been ignoring the obvious and secret peeks from others, and was just thinking about something with her arms crossed in front of her chest and her head slightly lowered.

She suddenly seemed to notice something, raised her head and glanced at Han Li, saw that he was looking elsewhere, and then silently moved away.

"Fellow Daoists, you have been waiting for a long time, the teleportation time has arrived. Please hold this talisman in your hand, and then you can enter the formation," just then, an old voice suddenly sounded.

Han Li shifted his gaze and saw that an old man in a gray robe who had been sitting cross-legged on the side of the formation had already stood up from the spot, and had a round formation plate in his hand at some point.

But when he waved his other sleeve, dozens of blue lights flew out, each accurately flying towards one person present.

Han Li waved his hand and grabbed the flying blue light in his hand. The blue light converged, but it was a rather mysterious talisman, with a dozen or so silver runes flashing on it, which were actually Silver蝌 Spiritual Writings.

The others also grabbed the talismans in their hands at the moment, without saying much, and walked towards the circular ring formation on the ground.

Han Li naturally followed the crowd and stepped into the formation together.

After everyone stood still, the old man held the plate in one hand and pinched a seal in the other, pressing heavily on the formation plate, and quickly chanted the mantra.

There was a "buzzing" sound!

The runes on the four walls of the circular tower shone brightly, and all the spirit stones burst out with brilliant light. The spiritual power contained in them poured out like a flood in an instant.

A dazzling white light reflected from the formation patterns under everyone's feet, and with a flash, it swallowed everyone, and then disappeared.
