A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 131 Migration, Return Journey, Sword Sect Visitors
Just as Han Li was opening blind boxes and counting his spoils...

Inside the secret underground chamber on the island, the girl slowly awoke.

At first, she was still dazed, but then she realized something and suddenly became alert to her surroundings.

However, apart from this empty room and her being the only living person around her, there was nothing else.

"no one?"

where is this?
Why am I here?

Was I kidnapped to this place by the powerful figure who killed the young sect master of Qingyang Sect and that Core Formation cultivator?

The next moment, she felt something strange in her arms. When she reached out and touched it, she found two jade slips, a main array flag that controlled the small protective array in this place, and a storage bag that did not belong to her.

The contents recorded on the first jade slip caused her expression to shift, her face shifting between light and shadow.

The second jade slip contained a message that flashed with anger in her eyes, followed by a slight blush on her delicate face. She then realized that her first kiss had been stolen, and subconsciously bit her lip lightly. Her nose twitched, and her eyes welled up with tears, filled with a deep sense of grievance and resentment.

Why can beautiful female cultivators only become appendages and playthings of high-level male cultivators?
Can't they make their own decisions?
It was at this moment that this already very proud young girl became even more determined in her belief in cultivating the Tao.

She had to climb up step by step, one step at a time.

One day, she will stand at the pinnacle of the cultivation world and tell all the male cultivators in the world that women are no weaker than men.

"Hmph, what a coward! A high-level cultivator like yourself doesn't dare to step forward and admit that you killed the young sect leader, instead making me, a weak woman, take the blame..."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but worry about the future of the Miaoyin Sect.

They were even more worried about themselves.

With Qingyangmen as her backing, her life is unlikely to be easy.

Then, she checked the storage bag the man had left behind.

My hand trembled immediately.

He hissed and gasped.

Because there are a lot of good things inside.

An unbelievable number.

"this…"

"With so many good things, I could cultivate to the Core Formation stage..."

"hateful."

He had made such a strong determination to become a high-level cultivator or even a Nascent Soul Ancestor through his own efforts.

but.

Seeing the immense wealth inside the storage bag, exceeding all the savings of the Miaoyin Sect, she simply couldn't refuse.

"Wait a minute, why is there a restriction mark on my arm?"

"Could it be..."

Thinking of a possible Wang Ning, her face flushed with embarrassment and annoyance.

This protective mark didn't conceal any harm or hidden dangers; it was simply a "virginity mark." Furthermore, it resembled a strawberry pie that an ordinary woman would plant on her man at night.

How could there be such a shameless person?

"What does it mean to leave me with this virginity mark?"

It's one thing for the big to bully the small.

She tolerated being framed by Miaoyinmen.

But this mark…

The girl was so angry that she showed her little tiger teeth, grinding them together with a grinding sound. She tried to wipe it off, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get the stain out.

This restrictive mark, deliberately left by a divine sense comparable to the late-stage Core Formation realm, is something that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator could not possibly erase.
At least the Core Formation stage.

After trying many times and finding it useless, the little girl was discouraged.

Thinking of his mother and sect, he dared not linger there for too long, so he used the array flag in his hand to activate the magic array and leave the underground secret chamber.

She did not return to Miaoyin Sect.

Instead, he wisely heeded the advice in the jade slip and went to Tianxing City first.

Then, he used the disciples of the Miaoyin Sect in Tianxing City to send a message to the sect, urging his mother to quickly transfer the Miaoyin Sect's assets.

Master Wang is also someone who listens to advice.

She was indeed wary of the power of the Qingyang Sect, a major sect of the demonic path, and worried about the retaliation from the Three Yang Old Demon of the Qingyang Sect. After all, the one taking the blame this time was none other than Yuan Yaoyanli, but her daughter. To be honest, if her daughter hadn't actually gained such a huge benefit, she would have felt like the sky was falling.

Therefore, with a strong will to survive, Sect Master Wang and his disciples did not delay and simply transferred all their assets to Tianxing City, which served as the face of the Star Palace.

The Star Palace's Tianxing City is extremely powerful, and in the last few hundred years, no high-level cultivator has ever dared to harm anyone here without cause.

Therefore, the Miaoyin Sect, which moved to Tianxing City, seemed to be carrying a huge burden of blame, but in fact, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise!
This indirectly avoided the undercurrents of the Reverse Star Alliance that were about to erupt.

At least, Zi Ling's mother, Sect Leader Wang, survived, didn't she?

...

Tianxing City.

The new residence that Miaoyinmen rented with money.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.

This incident made the two women even more aware of the potential trouble that stunning beauty could bring.

The saying "beauty is a curse" is all too true.

"Ning'er, why did you paint yourself so dark and dress so sloppily?"

When Master Wang saw his daughter, whose face was completely disfigured, he was heartbroken.

"Mother, it's too beautiful."

The girl pouted.

You're sitting at home when disaster strikes out of nowhere, and then you're saddled with a huge black pot (a metaphor for being wronged).

Who can stand this?
If one feels that their beauty does not match their cultivation, then of course they should keep a low profile.

"My child, I have wronged you."

Master Wang said with pity.

This time, her daughter was clearly frightened.

"Alright, Ning'er, from now on, try to stay home as much as possible and cultivate until you reach the late Foundation Establishment stage. I'll help you find the resources for Core Formation."

"No need, Mother, look at this..."

As Wang Ning spoke, she handed over a storage bag.

Sect Leader Wang took the storage bag and scanned it with his divine sense; his pupils immediately contracted sharply:
"You, you, could it really be that you killed the young sect master of Qingyang Sect?"

Upon hearing this, the girl took a deep breath and shook her head.
"It wasn't me..."

"Then what are the large amount of cultivation resources in this storage bag...?"

"It was left to me by the master who assassinated the young sect leader."

"why?"

"The death of the young sect leader urgently needs someone to step forward and take the blame, doesn't it? Otherwise, who will bear the wrath of the Three Yang Master? That master saved me and left me these things, perhaps that's a kind of compensation."

Wang Ning guessed with a clear mind.

"Should we, the Miaoyin Sect, bear the wrath of the Three Yang Old Monster?"

Master Wang's expression grew increasingly grim.

"Perhaps, involving our Miaoyin Sect was not his original intention. After all, who could have imagined that the young sect master would forcibly abduct me?"

"But my Miaoyin Sect, especially you, Ning'er, will surely be hated by the Three Yang Old Demon..."

"Mother, things have come to this point, we can only cultivate desperately and strive to form our core or even our nascent soul as soon as possible. As long as either of us can condense our nascent soul, what can the Qingyang Sect's anger do? As long as we remain holed up in Tianxing City, can the Three Yang Master still break in?"

"Well, that's all we can do."

...

Time flies, and several months have passed.

During this period.

Han Li disguised himself and visited many auction houses, all in an effort to obtain a level 5 dragon-type demon core.

In his earlier years, he often went out to purchase items, but the demon cores of dragons were truly rare.

In addition, he missed two auctions of the dragon's inner core because they were in seclusion with Yuan Yao and Yanli.

Therefore, he only got two in total.

Mo Jiao Xiao Liu reached the peak of level four thirty years ago after absorbing the inner core of a level five crested dragon and the demon core of a level five green dragon. Unfortunately, after thirty years of accumulation, he is still a step away from level five.

If the goal is to get Mo Jiao to take that step as soon as possible so that he can act in the outer sea, a level-five dragon core is the quickest and most direct way.

No matter what.

The species of dragon are extremely rare.

Unpredictable.

More than four months have passed, and there has been no news about the dragon's inner core in Tianxing City.

"Fine, if all else fails, I'll try a regular level six water-attribute demon core."

A level six demon core is also good; it should be able to help Xiao Liu evolve quickly. However, it cannot stimulate and strengthen bloodline power like a dragon-type demon core.

The most important thing between demonic beasts and spirit beasts is their bloodline.

If Xiao Liu wants to follow in his footsteps and reach level nine or even ten while he's still in the human realm, and perhaps even ascend to the spirit realm with him a thousand years later, then before each breakthrough, it would be best to devour a dragon's inner core of the same or even higher level. In this way, his bloodline power will grow stronger and stronger.

The purer the better.

Just as he was worrying about how to obtain a high-level dragon demon core, news spread to the circle of high-level cultivators in Tianxing City that the materials of two level-six dragons and two level-six dragon inner cores would be auctioned off in half a month.

The auction was organized by the Fengle Business Alliance, one of the four major business guilds in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Furthermore, rumors suggest that both level-six dragons are pure-blooded dragons, rather than hybrid dragons like the Cockscomb Dragon, whose bloodlines are somewhat mixed.

Han Li was both surprised and delighted upon receiving the news.

"A level six dragon's inner core? Or a high-level inner core from a pure-blooded dragon..."

Even if we don't want to get both, we should at least get one.

...

More than ten days later.

Just as the auction was about to begin, the White Water Sword Sect sent people first.

The group that arrived included Lu Changfeng, the senior disciple who led the way; Lu Yu, the disciple's adoptive master; and Lu Feiyang, the head of the White Water Sword Sect. The latter two were not only fellow disciples but also blood brothers.

The sect leader is the eldest son in the Lu family, while his master is the third son in the previous generation of the Lu family. The two brothers are more than eighty years apart in age.

As for the second son? He died unexpectedly while hunting demons in his early years.

Otherwise, it would be a case of three people forming the Golden Core in one sect.

The Lu family, unsurprisingly, was founded by a descendant of a Core Formation stage cultivator from the Star Palace.

The White Water Sword Sect did indeed flourish under the leadership of the Lu family.

From a single sect achieving one Core Formation stage hundreds or even thousands of years ago, to a sect achieving five Core Formation stages today. At its peak, a sect even had twelve Core Formation stages, and that generation almost produced a Nascent Soul cultivator.

In other words, the schemes of the Star Palace Twin Saints have been executed very well all along.

Unfortunately, the two saints stumbled into the huge pitfall of "Primordial Magnetic Divine Light".

"Master, Sect Leader, Senior Brother."

Han Li stepped forward to perform the grand salute, but was held back by two invisible forces from the left and right, ultimately unable to bow down.

"Very good, very good, this has truly broadened my horizons."

In the Chaotic Star Sea, it's not that pseudo-spiritual roots can't form a core, but the prerequisites are too many, the costs are too high, and the cost-effectiveness is too low.

The resources required to cultivate a pseudo-spiritual root to the Core Formation stage are enough to cultivate several or even a dozen Core Formation cultivators with true spiritual roots.

Therefore, no one is willing to cultivate pseudo-spiritual root cultivators.

Even couples from wealthy and influential families would abandon their main account and create a new one.

Therefore, if a pseudo-spiritual root wants to form a core, it must rely on itself.

This also means that in the Star Sea, it usually takes one or two thousand years for one or two lucky individuals with pseudo-spiritual roots to coincidentally form their core. They are extremely rare.

This child has such good fortune; he must be blessed with great luck.

They actually found a treasure for the White Water Sword Sect.

Over a hundred years to form a cinnabar core…

Many cultivators with limited resources and meager funds, even those with dual or heterogeneous spiritual roots, couldn't form their core as quickly as this kid, right?

"Haha, good, good, much better than your senior brother."

Lu Yu was very satisfied with Han Li's attitude towards them after he formed his core; he wasn't arrogant or haughty. Of course, he was even more pleased that this disciple had made him look good in front of his fellow disciples.

Because everyone knows the price that must be paid to successfully cultivate a pseudo-spiritual root into a core.

The huge cost implies the high value behind it.

But he didn't actually offer any help.

Since his disciple achieved Foundation Establishment, he had not provided any assistance whatsoever. He had not offered any help whatsoever, whether it was spirit stones, pills, various cultivation precautions for the three minor stages of Foundation Establishment, or insights into Core Formation.

All he knew was that he was drinking tea and eating melons at the White Water Sword Sect, and more than forty years later, his own pseudo-spiritual root disciple had formed his core.

I didn't worry about it at all.

It's truly like sitting at home and having a pie fall from the sky.

When the news reached the sect, he and many of his senior brothers initially found it hard to believe, feeling it was inconceivable and utterly perplexing.

People couldn't understand it, so they all assumed that he was secretly spending money and effort, and indirectly teaching his disciples in some way.

When the Foundation Establishment cultivators learned of this, they were even more amazed by him and all wanted to receive his guidance.

This gave him a truly unpleasant experience inside the door.

It makes me feel really proud.

What really energized him was that a senior brother in the sect secretly sought his advice and inquired about the secrets of teaching disciples.

The key point is that after listening to his boastful ramblings, the senior student found them quite reasonable.

Not only did he believe it, but he also copied it and used it to train his disciples.

No one could understand the sense of accomplishment he felt at that moment.

"Master, Sect Leader, Senior Brother, please come in."

He had been waiting for a long time.

"Very well, I'd like to take a closer look at how well you've decorated your cave dwelling. I've heard that cave dwellings on this sacred mountain are quite expensive."

In fact, as Core Formation cultivators of the Star Palace branch, they were all assigned an excellent cave dwelling above the fiftieth level of the Holy Mountain.

It's just that outsiders don't know it.

"Hmm, the array formation in your cave is quite impressive..."

"What a brilliant illusion array..."

"... "

After some pleasantries, the group finally got down to business.

"Han Li, can you tell me how you formed your core?"

Although this involves the personal secrets of cultivators, it is actually quite impolite to ask this question.

However, the White Water Sword Sect is a special case; they must re-investigate the background of the person in front of them.

"Master, Sect Leader Uncle, do you still remember why I joined the White Water Sword Sect?"

Why?

The two looked at each other.

"Because of a close friend of my disciple."

Han Li said with a serious expression.

"Friends?"

"Ah."

As Han Li spoke, he took out Xin Ruyin's insights into array formations, though only a small portion of them:
"My close friend was once a rogue cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, just like me. She originally had both parents, but during one of her outings, her uncle and aunt were killed by a demon beast while trying to protect her. She almost died as well, but fortunately, a powerful person happened to pass by and saved her."

"Although my friend couldn't get the name of the senior expert, she remembered the clothing of the expert from the White Water Sword Sect. Later, she spent several years investigating and learned that the clothing belonged to the White Water Sword Sect. From then on, she decided that she must join the White Water Sword Sect and repay the life-saving grace of that day."

"Unfortunately, she was short-lived. During one of her outings, someone targeted her for her array formation inheritance. When she returned, she was already severely injured."

"She entrusted everything to me."

"Her wish, the nearly 300,000 spirit stones she and her uncle and aunt had accumulated over the years by setting up arrays for others, and her insights into array formations..."

“Master, my dear friend has entrusted everything to me, asking me to carry her share to witness the beauty of this world.”

Han Lidao.

"How many spirit stones?"

"Three hundred thousand."

Senior Brother Lu Changfeng gasped, his eyes widening in shock.

This senior brother saw wealth, but the two Core Formation stage cultivators saw further and more.

Sure enough, Lu Zongmen and his cheap master were astonished by this insight into array formations after only a brief glance at the jade slip.

"Han Li, are you sure your friend is only at the Qi Refining stage?"

Sect Leader Lu asked with a burning gaze.

"Yes. What's wrong, Uncle-Master?"

"What a pity, what a pity. Such a genius in the art of formations died so young. What a shame."

The sect leader shook his head and sighed.

"Yes, it's remarkable that someone at the Qi Refining stage could develop a formation to deal with Core Formation cultivators. What a pity."

Master Lu was also filled with regret.

Entrusting such talents to the Holy Palace for training will undoubtedly be a great help and a significant asset to the Holy Palace in the future.

It's a pity that such a promising young talent, who also had a good impression of his White Water Sword Sect, was lost.

"So, your ability to form your core was largely due to the financial support your friend gave you?"

"Yes, Master."

Han Li nodded sincerely.

"I understand. Your dantian is deep, your meridians are wide and quite resilient, and your physique is rather special. Although it's not as good as us Core Formation cultivators, it's a huge advantage compared to other cultivators. Plus, with a financial guarantee that even we Core Formation cultivators would envy, you do have a very high chance of forming your core. So, how many spirit stones do you have left, kid?"

"There are still more than ten thousand left."

"What a luxury."

The two Core Formation stage cultivators were secretly amazed.

Without much thought, it was clear that they had purchased a large number of high-grade demon cores and spiritual herbs to refine suitable pills.

Speaking of which, the fact that he was willing to give away some of the remaining pills to his own son (nephew) shows that the boy is a good person and quite reliable.

"You've put your heart into this, Changfeng."

"That's what a disciple should do."

"Yes, your sect leader and I are very pleased that you have this thought. Here are some spirit stones for you."

As Master Lu spoke, he handed over a storage bag.

Upon seeing this, Han Li quickly waved his hand:
"No, Master."

Master Lu simply placed it on the table:

"Here, take this. It's a benefit from the sect. The sect provides a welfare program for every Core Formation cultivator within its ranks. As a Core Formation cultivator from our sect's direct lineage, you receive ten mid-grade spirit stones annually..."

For other mid-level sects, the number of Core Formation stage cultivators is generally six or seven per year.

Core Formation Guest Elders receive three mid-grade spirit stones annually.

The benefits offered by the White Water Sword Sect are significantly higher.

"Take it; not taking it would break the rules," Master Lu said with a smile.

Han Li couldn't refuse, so he stood up, bowed, and accepted the gift generously: "Thank you, sect, thank you, sect leader, and thank you, master."

"Um…"

　Production was drastically reduced in the following days, so this was all we could produce.

　　Sorry, I think I need to prepare myself mentally.

　　My maternal grandmother…

　　call…!
