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

Moments later, the white-roebd man appeared in a palace deep within the Golden Origin Immortal Palace.

Hovering inside the palace was a golden plate that was around a foot in size, and it was radiating bright golden light, forming a complex communication array.

He pulled out a purple badge, on one side of which was engraved the words "Nine Origins Temple" in small, golden text, while the other side of the badge bore an image depicting a piece of majestic scenery.

The white-robed man was just about to place the badge into the communication array when he suddenly stopped what he was doing, then withdrew the badge before making his way into another palace.

From there, he sat down onto the main chair, and as soon as he did so, two figures appeared before him amid a burst of spatial fluctuations.

One of them was a gray-haired elderly man with a nose that was close to twice the length of the average person's, and he had a pair of small eyes that were constantly darting around from side to side, as well as a thin, whisker-like mustache, giving him the appearance of a giant rat.

The other figure was a brawny, black-robed man with his arms crossed in front of his chest and a mighty saber carried on his back.

"How can we help you, Palace Master?" the two figures asked as they cupped their fists in a collective salute.

The elderly man's voice was quite sharp, matching his rat-like appearance, while the black-robed man's voice was very coarse and abrasive, much like the sound of steel needles scraping over stone.

"Lü Yun, make a trip to the Northern Glacial Immortal Region to investigate Han Li. I want an exhaustive investigation starting from his time in the lower realms, and make sure not to omit even the smallest of details," the white-robed man instructed.

"Yes, Palace Master," the gray-robed elderly man replied with a nod.

"Hei Dao, go to the Heavenly Pine Temple to search for Han Li. Make sure to find him, but do not alert him to your presence," the white-robed man ordered, and the black-robed man also gave an affirmative response.

"Go," the white-robed man said with a dismissive wave of his hand, and the two figures standing before him vanished in unison.

The white-robed man sat back in his chair as a faint smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, Han Li was flying through the air as a streak of blue light atop a blue flying carriage.

He had found the blue flying carriage in Daoist Master Bone Shine's bone ring, and it was not inferior in caliber to his previous green jade flying carriage.

He was seated on the flying carriage with his legs crossed, examining the over one hundred tools that he had claimed from Tao Ji and the others.

Han Li picked up Tao Ji's storage ring, then injected his spiritual sense into it, and moments later, a golden badge appeared in his grasp amid a flash of golden light. Engraved onto one side of the badge was a golden dragon, while the name "Tao Ji" was engraved on the other side, beneath which were the words "Golden Origin Immortal Palace" in small text.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this.

Having been at odds with the Heavenly Court for so many years, he had developed a decent understanding of the immortal palaces, and in particular, he had become very familiar with what some of the identity badges of the immortal palaces entailed, so he knew that this badge was an elder badge Golden Origin Immortal Palace.

He stowed the badge away, then examined the contents of Jin Chuan's storage tool, and he was quickly able to determine that he was an elder of the Heavenly Water Sect, a large sect in the Golden Origin Immortal Region.

As for those Golden Immortals, half of them served the Golden Origin Immortal Palace, while the other half were from the Heavenly Water Sect.

Some of these Golden Immortals had been very important figures in the immortal palace and the Heavenly Water Sect, but for the current Han Li, the only things of value in their storage tools were their Immortal Origin Stones.

Hence, he casually split everything else up into several categories, planning to sell them all at a later date for Immortal Origin Stones. Once he did that, he would have enough Immortal Origin Stones to support the average High Zenith cultivator's cultivation for at least a million years.

A contemplative look appeared on Han Li's face as he processed this new information.

The Golden Origin Immortal Region was one of the largest immortal regions under the Heavenly Court's control, so the leader of the Golden Origin Immortal Palace had to be at least a Great Encompassment cultivator.

Even though he had ensured that there were no survivors to tell the tale from the Golden Origin Immortal Palace or the Heavenly Water Sect, there was still no guarantee that his enemies wouldn't be able to find him.

Having said that, at this point, it hardly mattered if he killed more Heavenly Court cultivators or not. His identity had already been exposed, and there was no way that the Heavenly Court would ever let him off the hook, so what did it matter if he killed another elder and a few dozen Golden Immortals?

He was no longer the mere True Immortal that he had been when he first ascended to the Immortal Realm, and he was confident that he would at least be able to ensure self-preservation even in the face of a Great Encompassment cultivator.

However, the Golden Origin Immortal Palace was tied to the Heavenly Court, which had Dao Ancestors among its ranks. Prior to this, it was unlikely that he would've attracted the attention of those Dao Ancestors, but that could be subject to change from here onward. Han Li was very confident in his own powers, but certainly not so confident that he would dare to take on the entire Heavenly Court. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Hence, it seemed that he would have to go into hiding for now.

With that in mind, Han Li quickly summoned a few scriptures pertaining to the Golden Origin Immortal Region that he had sourced from the storage tools of Tao Ji and the others.

The fact that these scriptures were in the possession of the likes of Tao Ji naturally indicated that their contents were extremely useful, and with Han Li's current spiritual sense and memory functions, he was able to rapidly read through multiple scriptures at once.

All of a sudden, he made a hand seal, and the flying carriage began traveling in a different direction from before.

Over ten years flew by in a flash.

Somewhere in the Golden Origin Immortal Region, a streak of blue light was racing through the heavens, and it drew to a gradual halt, revealing a blue flying carriage.

Ahead of the flying carriage was a massive, golden mountain range with enormous mountains that pierced all the way up into the clouds. On top of that, the mountain range stretched as far as the eyes could see in either direction, resembling an enormous, golden barricade.

The golden mountain range was enshrouded in dense golden mist, giving it an air of mystery.

"We've finally arrived," Han Li said with a relieved expression as he observed the mountain range up ahead.

Standing beside him was a black-robed young woman, and it was none other than Weeping Soul, who had awakened not long ago.

At this moment, she was still looking slightly pale, and she was observing the massive mountain range up ahead with an intrigued look in her eyes.

This Golden Origin Mountain Range was the largest mountain range in the entire Golden Origin Immortal Region. In contrast with the complex terrain and environment of the Northern Glacial Immortal Region, the Golden Origin Immortal Region only had a single, vast continent, and the Golden Origin Mountain Range stretched over close to half of the entire continent.

In terms of area, the Golden Origin Mountain Range was definitely the largest mountain range that Han Li had ever witnessed.

On top of that, it was also a place that was fraught with perils and riches.

The Golden Origin Immortal Region was extremely abundant with metal-attribute spiritual qi, and the Golden Origin Mountain Range was where all of the metal-attribute spirit veins in the entire immortal region were gathered.

The mountain range was rife with metal-attribute spiritual qi, giving rise to countless metal-attribute spirit materials, attracting treasure-hunting cultivators from all over the entire immortal region.

However, due to the excessive abundance of metal-attribute spiritual qi in the Golden Origin Mountain Range, many natural metal force fields were present deep within the mountain range, and the deeper one ventured into the mountain range, the more powerful these force fields became.

Furthermore, the tremendous metal-attribute spiritual qi in the Golden Origin Mountain Range had given rise to many types of interesting metal beasts. The bodies of these beasts were formed by metal-attribute spiritual qi, and not only were they very formidable to begin with, they were also unaffected by the metal force fields in the mountain range, giving them an additional advantage over cultivators in battle.

The metal force fields, metal beats, and other hazards in the mountain range claimed the lives of countless treasure-hunting cultivators every year, but even so, countless cultivators were still venturing into the mountain range every single day.

The immortal palace naturally wasn't just going to ignore such an enormous natural treasure vault. In fact, the Golden Origin Immortal Palace was situated in the western region of the Golden Origin Mountain Range, and it had always been trying to seize control of the mountain range.

Unfortunately for them, the mountain range was simply too massive, and the Golden Origin Immortal Palace was only able to claim a small area in the western region of the mountain region, while the rest was split among countless immortal powers.

As a result, there were conflicts constantly taking place between the powers present in the mountain range, and Han Li had come here precisely because he wanted to take advantage of the chaotic environment here.

At this point, he had already opened over nine hundred profound acupoints, and his past experience told him that this would make it far easier for him to continue opening immortal acupoints in the future.

On top of that, he had a vast number of Immortal Origin Stones in his possession, so he was in a perfect position to go into seclusion and make some rapid advances in his cultivation base.

The attack from Tao Ji and the others had instilled within him a sense of urgency, and with that in mind, he adopted a disguise using his Reincarnation Mask, transforming into a brawny man with a thick beard.

On top of that, he had also suppressed his own cultivation base to the early-Golden Immortal Stage.

"Should I adopt a disguise as well, Master?" Weeping Soul asked.

"There's no need for that, no one knows you here in the Golden Origin Immortal Region," Han Li replied with a shake of his head, following which the flying carriage made its way into the Golden Origin Mountain Range at his behest.

Up close, the Golden Origin Mountain Range was even more majestic, and Han Li and Weeping Soul were made to resemble two tiny specks of dust as they stood before it.

The world's origin qi here was very abundant, but the vast majority of it was of the metal attribute, making it a perfect environment for those using metal-attribute cultivation arts, but it was rather inhospitable for other cultivators.

However, the environment didn't have any impact on Han Li as he depended on pills for his cultivation, as opposed to the world's origin qi in the outside world.

"Where do we go from here, Master? Are you going to find a place to go into seclusion in this mountain range?" Weeping Soul asked.

"There are many cities established by different immortal powers in the Golden Origin Mountain Range, so let's do some exploring first. If it's safer on the outskirts of the mountain range, then we can just go into seclusion somewhere nearby," Han Li replied, and Weeping Soul nodded in response.
