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

Chapter 167 In a Great Mood (Bonus Chapter 2k)

Han Li didn't have to wait long before two streaks of light rapidly approached from the direction of the Falling Cloud Sect.

"Little junior sister?"

The newcomers were Song Yu and another unfamiliar female cultivator.

He scanned the area within a radius of three hundred miles with his divine sense but found nothing unusual. He remained outwardly calm, but inwardly vigilant. His divine sense remained fully extended and never retracted.

"Fourth senior brother."

When the two women arrived, they both bowed to him.

Han Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening:

"So it's Fifth Junior Sister."

This woman is a descendant of Master Muli.

Master Hongfu accepted him into the sect and took good care of him, also out of consideration for Master Muli.

"Junior sister, where is Master?"

"Master, Elder Cheng, and Elder Lü are discussing matters in the main hall. My sister will handle the transaction on their behalf."

Song Yu tucked her hair back and said.

After the two women were seated, Han Li immediately poured them hot tea.

One didn't touch it, but instead curiously observed it. The other, however, couldn't resist picking up the teacup, then slightly puffing out his cheeks and gently blowing on it…

Han Li smiled in response.

"Junior sisters, are the seniors of Luoyun Sect satisfied with what I retrieved? Would they be willing to exchange it with me for those Spirit-Stabilizing Pills?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yu took out a pill bottle, several jade slips, and a token.

First, they handed over the elixir bottle and the jade slip:

"Both Uncle Cheng and Uncle Lü were very satisfied with the supplies that my senior brother provided and agreed to the deal."

"And this token..."

"My two senior uncles and Master mean that they hope you can have a nominal position in the Luoyun Sect, even if it's just a nominal one like Guest Elder."

"Don't worry, senior brother. It's just a nominal appointment. I won't force you to do anything for my Luoyun Sect."

In the blink of an eye, the token floated in front of them, following closely behind the pill bottle and the jade slip.

"Those two agreed so readily?"

Han Li thought to himself.

This situation greatly surprised him.

As for this guest elder...?
Han Li initially wanted to refuse.

Having too many worries is not necessarily a good thing.

But when he thought about having another sect and another path, and seeing the expectant looks in his two junior sisters' eyes, he finally nodded.
"Alright, I'll accept the position of guest advisor."

Han Li stood up, preparing to leave.

"Wait, senior brother."

"Junior Sister, is there anything else?"

Han Li turned around.

Inside the elixir bottle were the four Spirit-Stabilizing Pills he needed.

The jade slip contains recipes for preparing spiritual water from the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as several ancient elixir formulas.

He has obtained what he needed, and it is not advisable for him to linger here.

"Senior brother, this is a gift that Senior Uncle Cheng and Senior Uncle Lü asked me to bring to you as a guest elder when you join the sect."

As he spoke, seven or eight jade boxes with sealing talismans attached flew out.

Han Li casually opened three of them and glanced at them, his eyelids twitching involuntarily.

Without him.

Inside the jade box were precious spiritual materials.

There is a thousand-year-old spiritual flower.

There are thousand-year-old spiritual fruits.

A thousand-year-old elixir, comparable to a level six demon core.

"These are all auxiliary spiritual herbs needed to prepare the Mingqing Spiritual Water. Senior Brother may not be able to find them while you are out there, and even if you could, it would take a lot of effort. So your two senior uncles have prepared a few portions of raw materials for you. This is a token of their appreciation, so please do not refuse."

Song Yu's direct statement left Han Li speechless, leaving him both amused and exasperated.

This is because I don't want to take advantage of him too much.

Moreover, the thousand-year-old elixir could be given away so easily.

This great sect, with its lineage spanning thousands of years, truly possesses profound cultural heritage.

Cheng and Lü are both quite good Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Then, thank you very much, my two senior uncles."

Han Li didn't stand on ceremony and readily took the things.

He then looked at the two women and bowed with clasped hands in greeting:
"Afterwards, I would like to trouble my two junior sisters to pass on a message that decades later, I, Han, will definitely visit you in person to express my gratitude."

"Brother, you're welcome."

The two women returned the gift.

Just as Han Li was about to leave.

"Wait, senior brother."

"Junior Sister..." You shouldn't be so quiet and aloof.

Can you just say everything in one go?

Han Li, who had just turned around to leave, turned back again.

Their eyes met, and the elegant and refined Song Yu blinked innocently. He then reached into his storage pouch and took out several jade slips, handing them over.

"This is?"

"Senior brother, these are several ancient pill formulas, including the Crimson Cloud Pill, which my Song family possesses. You may take a look; they might be of some help to your future cultivation."

"Ancient elixir formulas? Junior Sister, why did you give me these?"

Han Li examined the jade slip and was somewhat puzzled.

His generous investment in this woman was, to some extent, aimed at obtaining the ancient elixir formulas held by the Song family, one of the foundational families of the Luoyun Sect.

Originally, I wanted to wait until we were more familiar with each other before bringing it up.

Song Yu bowed gracefully.
"I have received so many benefits from you, Senior Brother, so naturally I must repay you."

She couldn't find the right opportunity or the right thing to offer.

It wasn't until she learned from her master that her senior brother had asked the sect for the ancient pill formula that she was enlightened and thought of using the ancient pill formula as a small gift in return.

"Junior sister's kindness is appreciated, so I, your senior brother, will not refuse."

Han Li carefully put away the several ancient pill formulas, showing no affectation whatsoever.

Regardless of whether we can find the Spirit Garden in the Fallen Demon Valley, it's definitely a good idea to get our hands on more ancient pill formulas first.

After that, he will try to collect more ancient prescriptions and ancient books.

In short, it's always better to be prepared.

"Junior sisters, is there anything else?"

Before leaving, Han Li suddenly asked this question.

This made the two women smile with delight.

"Junior Sister, these Spirit-Stabilizing Pills are very useful to me. How about I give you yours later?"

"Senior brother, little sister is not in a hurry."

"Then... please help me deliver this storage bag to Master!"

Inside the high-level storage bag, which was sealed with a restriction, were more than a dozen ten-thousand-year-old fire-attribute spiritual herbs!
And some fire-attribute thousand-year-old spiritual herbs!

These spiritual herbs were of little use to him, who primarily cultivated wood-attribute techniques; or more accurately, they didn't significantly improve his cultivation. However, they were extremely useful to his Nascent Soul stage master, Hong Fu.

Using these ancient herbs as the main ingredients, and combining them with some thousand-year-old herbs as auxiliary ingredients, it is just enough to refine two or three batches of Fire Essence Pills.

For cultivators at the mid-Nascent Soul stage who practice fire-attribute techniques, consuming this can greatly increase their magical power.

It is most suitable for the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Even late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators find it effective.

Taking it in the early stages of the Nascent Soul stage may even waste some of its medicinal properties.

If we make good use of these spiritual herbs, perhaps in a hundred years, Master will be able to enter the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm?
A mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who is less than 600 years old is not incapable of reaching the late-stage Nascent Soul realm!
"Master, don't let me down."

The Luoyun Sect offered him seven or eight thousand-year-old spiritual items as a token of goodwill, exceeding the usual trade standards. He couldn't just offer some low-quality thousand-year-old spiritual herbs as a token gesture.

What's more.

As far as he knows.

Lu Luo specializes in water-attribute cultivation techniques.

Cheng Tiankun's cultivation technique is said to be earth-attribute.

Neither of them needs fire attributes, so it's perfect for the master.

...

They flew away, left, and quickly moved far away.

In the Gale Layer, looking at the pill bottle containing four Spirit Stabilizing Pills, then at the jade slip for refining Mingqing Spirit Water, and the seven or eight jade boxes of various sizes, and finally at several ancient pill formulas, Han Li smiled with satisfaction.

It's still worth befriending the Luoyun Sect.

"Human hearts shouldn't be tested, but Master could be involved in and offer some assistance with some of my plans..."

In terms of cultivation level, the higher the better.

In terms of strength, the stronger the better.

The Noble Bird Cave, the Azure Kun Cave, and the Fallen Demon Valley—he wasn't sure if he could cultivate to the mid-Nascent Soul stage by then. In this situation, having a more powerful master like Hong Fu by his side would greatly increase his chances of seizing all the benefits.

...

Luoyun Sect.

Hong Fu used his Nascent Soul level magic power to break the restriction on the high-grade storage bag, and fell silent as he looked at the large number of fire-attribute spiritual herbs and medicines inside.

Cheng Tiankun and Lü Luo came closer to take a look, and their hands trembled so much that they almost pulled out their own beards.

"hiss…!"

They even considered bringing Han Li into their sect and raising him as their own son.

Now it seems that the two of them are the ones who really need to be cared for...

　I added 800 words to the previous chapter. Those interested can take a look. I wrote too late last night and posted it this morning without time to adjust it. Some parts were unclear; my fault.

　　Please understand.

　　Woo woo woo.

　　Staying up late is so hard.
