A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

In response, Dongfang Bai turned around and opened his mouth to release a large azure flag, and countless peculiar green flowers emerged from the flag, forming a floral bouquet to oppose the oncoming bolt of lightning.

A rich aroma that was imbued with a type of special law powers wafted through the air, and the power of the bolt of lightning was greatly diminished by this strange fragrance.

As a result, it was only able to pierce through a large chunk of the floral bouquet before being stopped in its tracks.

Right at this moment, Dongfang Bai swooped down toward a particularly massive golden palace down below before vanishing into it in a flash.

A resounding thunderclap rang out as Han Li appeared in the sky above before also descending toward the palace, and at the same time, the bolt of golden lightning exploded to completely eradicate what little remained of the floral bouquet.

The azure flag re-emerged, having already been torn to shreds, while the bolt of golden lightning flew up Han Li's sleeve in a flash.

Han Li appeared in front of the palace in an instant, and he was just about to fly in when the gates of the palace swung shut amid a burst of loud rumbling.

The gates were over a hundred feet tall, and they were giving off an indestructible black gleam.

The gates were also riddled with antiquated golden patterns that formed numerous swords of different sizes, and it was clearly an extremely formidable restriction.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he stopped cold in his tracks, and after taking a moment to inspect his surroundings, he asked, "Have you finished searching their souls, Weeping Soul? What is this place?"

"Hold on a second, Master," Weeping Soul replied as she continued carrying out her soul search.

All of a sudden, an alarmed look appeared on her face as she exclaimed, "This is the teleportation palace of the Golden Origin Immortal Palace! The interregion teleportation array is in there!"

"So he's trying to get away, is he?" Han Li harrumphed coldly as he instantly transformed into a devilish deity with three heads and six arms, and over nine hundred profound acupoints lit up over his body, glowing as radiantly as stars in the night sky.

Three bursts of true spirit bloodline powers rose up within his body, releasing a devastating aura of destruction.

Han Li let loose a thunderous roar as he lashed out at the palace gates with all six fists, but Weeping Soul hurriedly called out, "That won't work, Master! These gates were crafted using Idol Stones, one of the hardest materials under the heavens. On top of that, the restrictions on these gates are also extremely powerful and not to be dealt with through brute force. I've already found the way to deactivate the restriction, so allow me to..."

However, Han Li's fists had already struck the palace gates before she had a chance to finish.

An earth-shattering boom rang out as the entire palace trembled violently, and countless cracks instantly appeared over the palace gates.

Close to ten thousand streaks of golden swordlight erupted out of the gates, forming a giant sword array that converged toward Han Li.

This sword array was even more formidable than what Han Li was able to unleash with his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, but all he did was open his mouth to release a burst of green light, which spread out in all directions to sweep up all of the streaks of golden sword light.

Immediately thereafter, the burst of green light vanished alongside all of the streaks of golden swordlight, and it was as if they had never existed at all.

After the green light faded away, Han Li slammed his six giant fists into the palace gates once again, completely shattering them and reducing them to rubble.

Only then did he recall that Weeping Soul seemed to have been trying to communicate something urgently to him, and he turned to her as he asked, "What did you just say?"

"N-nothing..." Weeping Soul stammered as she stared blankly at the wreckage of the palace gates, while Han Li rushed straight into the palace.

The palace was circular in shape, and it had a diameter of several thousand feet. There were dozens of white stone pillars in the palace, supporting the roof above, and at the center of the palace was a golden array that was riddled with countless profound runes and around five hundred to six hundred feet in diameter.

There were twelve silver stone pillars around the array, engraved upon each of which was a relief of a majestic silver dragon.

At this moment, Dongfang Bai was busy at work inside the array, quickly placing silver crystals into the slots on the twelve silver stone pillars.

The slots on half of the stone pillars had already been filled, and they were glowing with radiant silver light that converged toward the center of the array.

Han Li crashed down into the palace, stomping a pair of enormous craters into the ground and causing the entire palace to tremble violently.

"This is impossible! How could you have made it in here so quickly?!" Dongfang Bai roared in an incredulous manner.

"This is the end of the road for you, Dongfang Bai." freёwebnovel.com

Han Li slowly emerged from the cloud of dust that had been raised by his landing, and his Mantra Treasured Axis appeared behind him amid a flash of golden light.

Dongfang Bai's expression changed drastically upon seeing this, and he hurriedly abandoned the array to flee for his life.

A cold sneer appeared on Han Li's face as countless golden ripples erupted out of his Mantra Treasured Axis, instantly filling the entire hall.

Dongfang Bai abruptly reappeared near the entrance of the palace amid a burst of spatial fluctuations, having been completely immobilized by Han Li's Mantra Treasured Axis.

Han Li reverted back to his human form, then flicked a finger through the air, releasing a golden sword projection that pierced straight through Dongfang Bai's dantian.

The nascent soul inside was destroyed in the process, confirming that this was undoubtedly Dongfang Bai's true body.

A look of relief appeared on Han Li's face upon seeing this, and his Mantra Treasured Axis faded away at his behest, but immediately thereafter, a ball of green light flew out of Dongfang Bai's body before shooting out of the palace.

"Weeping Soul!" Han Li called out, and she immediately appeared in front of the fleeing soul in a wraith-like manner before trapping it in her grasp.

The ball of green light was struggling with all its might, and it was clearly significantly more powerful than the souls of the Five Heavenly Yin Disciples, but it was still unable to break free.

Dongfang Bai's face appeared within the ball of green light, and he hurriedly said in a frantic manner, "My sincerest apologies for my past transgressions against you, fellow daoists. Please spare my life, and I'm willing to hand over all of the wealth that the Golden Origin Immortal Palace and I have accumulated over the years.

“The Golden Origin Immortal Region is a very fertile immortal region with countless riches to be harvested, so I'm sure you won't be disappointed with what I have to offer."

Han Li merely smiled and offered no response.

As for Weeping Soul, she had been very close with Ye Susu, so she had zero intention of letting Dongfang Bai off the hook, and she was glowering resentfully at his soul.

Dongfang Bai's heart sank slightly at the sight of Weeping Soul's hateful expression, and he turned to Han Li as he continued, "Fellow Daoist Han, I can serve you for the rest of my existence as a ghostly slave. With my current cultivation base, even after I'm converted into a ghostly slave, my powers won't diminish much, so I'll definitely be of help to you.

“The Nine Origins Temple has already sent powerful cultivators to come and capture you, and you'll only be able to escape from them with my help. Otherwise, even if you kill me, you'll fall into the hands of the Nine Origins Temple!"

A hesitant look appeared on Han Li's face upon hearing this.

"Master, we can't let him go after what he did to the Azure Fox Tribe! If you want to know anything from him, then I can just search his soul and tell you!" Weeping Soul hurriedly said.

It had become very clear that Han Li was the decision-maker here, so Dongfang Bai felt no need to respect Weeping Soul, and he harrumphed coldly, "I've cultivated a soul locking secret technique that makes my soul impossible to search. If you try to use a soul search technique on me, you'll only be able to destroy my soul at most!"

"Please trust me, Master! My law powers specifically target souls, so I'm sure that I can search his soul even if others can't!" Weeping Soul urged in a frantic manner.

"Rest assured, Weeping Soul, I never had any intention of sparing him. Go ahead and search his soul. Even if you end up destroying his soul in the process, it hardly matters to me," Han Li said.

"Thank you, Master!" Weeping Soul said in an ecstatic manner, then immediately sprang into action before Dongfang Bai had a chance to say anything.

Countless crimson runes surged out of her hands before infiltrating Dongfang Bai's soul, and a bloodcurdling howl rang out, but the soul didn't explode.

Han Li's eyes lit up slightly upon seeing this. It seemed that Weeping Soul's law powers really did trump Dongfang Bai's soul locking secret technique.

With that in mind, he strode over to Dongfang Bai's body, then removed a storage ring from one of its fingers before injecting his spiritual sense into it.

Moments later, a pleased look appeared on his face as he swept a sleeve through the air to produce a small pile of the silver crystals that Dongfang Bai had been using just now.

He wasted no time, picking up the crystals before placing them into the vacant slots on the silver pillars.

Even though he wasn't able to find any information on this teleportation array in Dongfang Bai's storage ring, it was only going to be a matter of time before Weeping Soul dug this information out of Dongfang Bai's memories.

All he had to do was ready the array, and once Weeping Soul found out how to operate it, they would be able to leave this place right away.
