Mortal: The Heavenly Spiritual Root that Begins from the Demonic Path

The two of them passed through the corridor and walked for an unknown amount of time. Han Li never felt that the journey was so long.

After passing through an archway, the front has been completely new. Fresh peach blossoms are blooming in the middle of the yard. A recliner is rocking slowly. There is incense burning on the stone table next to it, and a chess set is placed on it.

But the remaining chess pieces are already covered with peach blossoms.

There was a pot of fresh tea on the side and several teacups turned upside down, obviously waiting for someone to come. As soon as he walked into this place, Han Li felt refreshed.

Smelling a strange fragrance, Han Li felt that the speed of his Dayan Jue had increased a bit, and his spiritual sense was even more agile. However, Han Li's attention at this time was not on the speed of his spiritual sense at all, but was all on the man lying on the recliner.

She was wearing a plain black robe, with her long black hair loose, and an antique jade hairpin on her head that held up most of her hair.

Han Li's spiritual sense was unable to penetrate this hairpin, but he felt that it was faintly extraordinary. It was the ancient treasure of the furnace tripod, Xiaoyaoju, that Yi Jue had taken from Yun Lu.

The person in front of him was naturally Yi Jue. As Yi Jue stood up, Han Li also bowed to him, but found that he could not bow any further.

Yi Jue waved his hand, and the maid who brought him here left. Then Yi Jue said,

"You are not my disciple, nor my junior, and I have not taught you anything."

"I even spied on you without your permission. Please forgive me for this."

Han Li immediately said,

"Senior has a profound cultivation level, and deserves Han Li's respect."

"Han Li has something to ask of me. Senior, please give me some advice."

Yi Jue smiled faintly and said,
"We were acquainted in the Seven Mysterious Sect in the past."

"More than a hundred years later, in this chaotic star sea hundreds of thousands of miles away, we actually met an old friend."

"Come, sit down."

"You are also a Daoist now, you have reached the Jindan stage, there is no need to address me as senior."

Yes, Yi Jue concealed his cultivation level to the Jindan stage and did not reveal the Yuanying stage. Han Li's cultivation level was revealed, but he was not panicked at all, because he saw that the person in front of him was Yi Jue, and although his cultivation level was high, he was also at the Jindan stage.

Han Li's heart slowly calmed down. He had thought that it would be an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage. If he was a Core Formation stage, even though he had just entered the Core Formation stage, he still had some means to save his life.

As Han Li sat down, Yi Jue poured him a cup of fragrant tea and said,

"I came here to make a deal with you, fellow Taoist."

Han Li calmed down at this time. He now understood that he needed help from Yi Jue and it would be inappropriate to speak directly. Therefore, he raised his teacup and motioned Yi Jue to continue.
Yi Jue said,

"The inner star sea is about to start a period of chaos, and many sources of goods may be affected."

"The outer sea is dangerous. I hope to hire you for a hundred years to go to the outer sea and hunt monsters."

"All the materials, inner elixirs and other resources obtained from the monsters can be converted into contribution points from fellow Taoists and used to exchange for some resources from Tianshiyuan."

"Whether it's elixirs, spiritual materials, or magical skills, we can even ask the monks in the city to customize spiritual treasures, elixirs, and talismans."

When Han Li heard this, he was shocked at first, then he thought about it carefully.

"Are you trying to get me to work for you?"

"Although if the Inner Star Sea gets into chaos, I will definitely go to the Outer Star Sea to hide, but if I trade directly, not only will my true identity be exposed, but I'm afraid I won't be able to exchange anything of real value."

"However, it's not good to refuse directly, so let's delay it first."

After thinking about it, Han Li also said, "Of course there is no problem. I knew in the past that Fellow Daoist Yi is extraordinary. Now that I see him, it is indeed true."

"I am very grateful for this good thing. If I gain anything, I will be very grateful."

"It's just that Han has just arrived and is not very familiar with the environment. If I go to the open sea, I must give priority to fellow Taoists."

Yi Jue was not annoyed by Han Li's evasion. Although he could ripen the colorful grass in batches, the problem was that the colorful grass needed someone to keep an eye on it, and Yi Jue was naturally unwilling to spend that effort.

If Han Li could be asked to do the job, and Tianshiyuan purchased the products and sold them to Tiannan, a huge trade difference could be earned.

As for not going for the time being, it doesn’t matter.

When the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace start fighting, Han Li will take the initiative to run over.

Han Li couldn't help but ask,
"You said that the Inner Sea is about to be in chaos. What is that?"

Yi Jue smiled without saying anything, and just poured Han Li another cup of tea.

Han Li smiled bitterly, knowing that if he didn't make a promise, it would be difficult to get the information he wanted. The chaos in the inland sea was still a small matter, but the next question would be difficult to get an answer if he didn't show sincerity.

"Han is willing to join Tianshiyuan and take up a sinecure. Han also promises that if there are gains in the next hundred years, Tianshiyuan will be given priority."

Yi Jue said,

"Two hundred years."

Han Li gritted his teeth, not knowing whether he was thinking of Chen Qiaoqian or Zhang Tie, but he finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

Afterwards, Yi Jue took out a contract, and the two parties successfully signed the contract. Han Li quickly asked,
"I don't know how you got here, but is there a way to get back?"

A smile appeared on Yi Jue's lips, but it quickly faded away, and he said,
"I came here because of an ancient teleportation array, but after I left, the array disappeared where it was, and now I can't find it."

"However, the place I came to is in the southwest sea area, so I have been searching here all these years."

"By chance, I joined Tianshiyuan, and now I have a sinecure position thanks to my status as a veteran."

Han Li was stunned for a moment, and then said,

"Daoyou, Daoyou, don't know how to get back?"

Yi Jue said,

"As long as I find the teleportation array I came from, I can naturally go back."

Han Li's heart instantly sank. It was not easy to find a disappeared teleportation array in such a vast ocean.

Judging from Yi Jue's condition, he has probably been searching for more than a hundred years. And if Chen Qiaoqian has difficulty forming the elixir, she may only have fifty years left to live.

"Fifty years, I just hope Qian'er can successfully form the elixir."

But Han Li also knew how unrealistic this was. Not to mention that the Chen family had been destroyed, even if the Chen family still existed, it would not be Chen Qiaoqian's turn to get the resources for forming the Dan.

Han Li felt annoyed and nauseous, and his brain was dizzy. He even felt that the person in front of him began to shake. Just as he was about to stand up, he felt the spiritual power in his body running wild. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

As for Yi Jue, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and the small green bottle was instantly in his hand. Then he waved his hand, and the small green bottle went directly into Lingmiao Garden.

Then, Yi Jue took a step, and in the blink of an eye, a formation light shield appeared in the whole yard, covering up all traces, and Yi Jue disappeared directly in the yard. (End of this chapter)
