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

All of a sudden, a thought occurred to Han Li, and he looked up at the golden ring above his head to find that almost all of the Time Dao Runes on it had been snuffed out.

"Come back, we have to go soon," Han Li said as he turned to the Essence Fire Raven.

The fiery silver figure nodded in response, then flew back into Han Li's body.

After that, Han Li sat down with his legs crossed to meditate, and it didn't take long before the final Time Dao Rune faded.

Immediately thereafter, the golden ring above his head abruptly swelled t oseveral times its original size, and a dark vortex appeared within it, releasing bursts of formidable suction force that drew Han Li into the vortex.

Moments later, Han Li reappeared in his room in the Long Pavilion Garden amid a flash of golden light.

After taking a moment to compose himself, he swept his gaze across his room, and only after ensuring that nothing was amiss did he allow himself a sigh of relief.

His consciousness was still reeling from the overexertion of his spiritual sense, but now that he was no longer being suppressed by the very environment that he was in, he felt a lot more comfortable.

Not far away from him, the translucent wall of light was gradually fading away, and the Heaven Controlling Vial was also slowly returning to its normal state.

Han Li raised a hand to draw the vial into his grasp, following which his brows furrowed slightly as he stroked the vial and attempted to establish a spiritual connection with the vial spirit.

Prior to his transmigration, he had clearly heard someone speaking to him in his mind, and he was confident that that had been the voice of the vial spirit, but unfortunately, his attempts to establish a spiritual connection proved to be futile.

A few moments later, he placed the Heaven Controlling Vial back around his own neck, then tucked it into the front of his robes.

As he did this, he suddenly noticed that a golden ring had appeared on the ring finger of his right hand. It appeared to have been crafted from pure gold, and even though though there weren't any features or designs on its surface, it was very full and supple in appearance.

He fought through the pain in consciousness to inspect the ring with his spiritual sense, but he wasn't able to detect any energy fluctuations from it, and it was as if this really was just an ordinary ring.

He then attempted to remove the ring, only to discover that it seemed to have fused as one with his body.

Even after tugging on the ring with such force that he felt as if he were about to rip off his own finger, it still refused to budge even a single inch.

Hence, Han Li could only give up on this endeavor. In any case, the ring didn't seem to be having any detrimental effects on him at the moment.

After sitting in silence for a short while, Han Li channeled the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra, and bursts of faint golden light appeared around him as the five time-attribute artifacts emerged one after another, but all of the Time Dao Runes on the artifacts had been snuffed out, and the time law power fluctuations that they were giving off had also become much weaker.

However, right at this moment, the golden ring on his finger suddenly lit up, then flew off his finger on its own before hovering in mid-air in front of him.

Immediately thereafter, it began to swell rapidly in size, and the light that it was radiating also became brighter and brighter, to the point that it had taken on a slightly transparent appearance.

Han Li faltered slightly upon seeing this, then peered through the golden ring to discover that there were dozens of translucent golden threads swirling around incessantly within it, giving off bursts of formidable time law power fluctuations.

This golden ring was the very same ring formed by his time law threads, and as soon as the ring appeared, all of the other time-attribute artifacts immediately flew into it before glowing far brighter than before.

At the same time, Han Li could sense the Heaven Controlling Vial begin to stir a little in front of his chest, as if it were about to fly out once again.

Han Li was very alarmed by this, and he immediately braced himself for another potential transmigration, but the vial only trembled a few times before falling still again.

As for the ring of time, it hovered in mid-air for a short while before returning to his finger as a golden ring.

Is this due to a lack of active Time Dao Runes? Han Li thought to himself as he stroked the ring with a perplexed expression, but his pondering clearly wasn't going to yield any answers for now, so he cast the train of thought aside and withdrew all of the time-attribute artifacts back into his own body.

After that, he flipped a hand over to take a restorative pill before closing his eyes to meditate.

Using Purple Sun Warm Jade would definitely speed up his recovery, and he had just obtained a large supply from Shi Zhanfeng, but given Weeping Soul's current condition, he decided that it was best to save all of the Purple Sun Warm Jade for her.

……

Inside the Naraka Area, there was a large garden that was filled with a series of extremely beautiful and opulent buildings.

One of them was a resplendent palace with a conical roof, and at this moment, there was a handsome young man with a head of silver hair seated on a large golden chair inside the palace.

Standing before him was a tall man with a set of angular features, clad in a suit of black devilish armor. At this moment, the man was bowed down while delivering a report.

"Is this information reliable, Du Yuan?" the silver-haired young man asked with tightly furrowed brows.

"Most definitely, Your Highness. I'm willing to vouch for this information with my life," Du Yuan replied.

"I've been searching for so long, and I never thought it would be in that accursed place. Having said that, I suppose that makes sense. If it was in any other place, it wouldn't have taken me so long to find it," the young man mused.

"Your Highness, I came back to deliver this report in the hope that you can mobilize some more people to come with me to recover the item," Du Yuan said as he cupped his fist in a salute.

"You've already done a very good job uncovering this information, I'll take care of the rest myself," the young man replied.

"Your Highness, may I ask if you're planning to venture into that place yourself? There's no telling what perils could be lurking in that place, so I strongly advise you not to take the risk," Du Yuan said in a solemn manner.

The young man waved a hand to dismiss Du Yuan's concerns as he said, "This matter concerns my Great Dao, and it'll decide whether I can reach the Great Encompassment Stage before all of my siblings, so it must be regarded with the utmost priority. Set aside everything else for now and focus on this matter as the top priority."

"Yes, Your Highness," Du Yuan replied as he cupped his fist in a salute.

……

Several more years flew by in a flash.

Han Li was cultivating in his secret chamber, and the five time-attribute artifacts were hovering in the air around him, with all of them having already recovered a decent number of Time Dao Runes.

The rate of recovery seemed to have become even faster.

The golden ring remained firmly attached to his finger, appearing no different from a mundane accessory.

During this period of seclusion, he had already completely recovered from his injuries and spiritual overexertion, and he had also made some strides in his cultivation of the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra.

At the same time, he had developed better control over his ring of time and could now avoid triggering the ring while cultivating the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra.

He was making sure to keep the ring in check as the alternative would be involuntary transmigration.

Right at this moment, Han Li's eyes suddenly sprang open, and he emerged from his secret chamber into the hall outside.

There was a buzzing ball of white light that was flying around the hall like a lost bird, and Han Li drew the ball of white light into his grasp to discover that it was a voice transmission talisman.

He crushed the talisman in his hand, and a message was transmitted into his mind.

After hearing the message, Han Li made his way out of the Long Garden Pavilion, where Shi Chuankong was already waiting for him.

"Your dedication to cultivation is truly unmatched, Fellow Daoist Li."

"You're far too kind, Fellow Daoist Shi. Please come in," Han Li replied with a smile as he made an inviting hand gesture.

The two of them entered the guest hall together, then sat down in front of a round stone table.

"Why have you come to visit me instead of traveling to the Heavenly Rainbow Region?"

"I've never managed an entire region before, and I was completely blindsided by all of the work involved. On top of that, Zhanfeng and the others are constantly getting in my way, so I'll have my work set out for me for the foreseeable future. Let's not talk about that for now. I've come here today to deliver two pieces of news to you," Shi Chuankong said with a serious expression.

"What is it?" Han Li asked as he set down his teacup.

"The first piece of news pertains to the Scalptia Spatial Domain that you asked me to track down," Shi Chuankong replied as he took a sip of tea.

"Have you found some leads?" Han Li asked.

"Kind of. I'd never heard of the place before this, and only consulting many records and asking Pokong was I able to find out some information about it. Just like the Night Sun Domain, the Scalptia Spatial Domain is an independent domain in our Holy Realm, and it's also what's called a desolate domain," Shi Chuankong replied.

"What's a desolate domain?" Han Li asked.

"It means that the domain has no spiritual qi or devilish qi. There are no records detailing exactly what the environment is like in there, but in any case, it's a very special place. Many years ago, it used to be where criminals were sent into exile, but it's already been abandoned for hundreds of thousands of years," Shi Chuankong explained.

"Have you found out its location?" Han Li asked.

"I knew you would ask that," Shi Chuankong chuckled as he flipped a hand over to produce a jade slip that contained a map.

Han Li took a moment to inspect the map, following which Shi Chuankong said in a solemn manner, "Fellow Daoist Li, I don't know why you're searching for this Scalptia Spatial Domain, but it's a very dangerous place, so I strongly advise you not to go there."

"I'll be sure to keep that in mind, Fellow Daoist Shi," Han Li replied with a smile. "By the way, what's the second piece of news that you have for me?"
