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

Chapter 179 Ghost Mist Buffet (Bonus Chapter 2k)

"Senior is joking. If even your aptitude is deemed unacceptable, then what about ours?"

The girl blinked.

She clearly remembered that this person's cultivation level was at least at the peak of the late Core Formation stage.

Perhaps it has already condensed into a nascent soul.

Otherwise, how could one conceal their abilities from a group of Nascent Soul stage monsters without being noticed?
"As for my current situation? I am very grateful for your help and reminders back then..."

Back then, thanks to this person's help, my mother was able to break through the encirclement and escape the group of cultivators from Jiyin Island.

Because the mother and daughter had become aware of the existence of the Reverse Star Alliance in advance and sensed the undercurrents in the Chaotic Star Sea, they began to restrict the female cultivators under their tutelage from easily leaving the sea area where Tianxing City was located.

Afterwards, after much deliberation with her mother, she finally decided to tell Xinggong about Miaoyinmen's experiences and discoveries, thus pledging allegiance to Xinggong.

The higher-ups at Xinggong were generous with their rewards, providing the mother and daughter with many conveniences.

This is why she was able to convert the spirit stones in her hands into cultivation materials that could help her form a golden core, and she was fortunate enough to condense a golden core around the age of seventy.

Moreover, I was able to come to the Void Heaven Palace this time thanks to the Star Palace's care.

First, they were teleported from the Starry Sky Palace's dedicated teleportation array in Tianxing City to one of the twelve inner star islands, two to three million miles to the southeast, saving them more than two million miles of travel. Then they sped along, making the most of their speed.

Otherwise, with her and her mother's escape techniques, it would have been difficult for them to reach this place within two months.

Thinking back on everything that had happened, a sense of gratitude quietly rose in Zi Ling's heart.

A blush rose to her cheeks.

"Senior, I am safe and sound with the Miaoyin Sect."

The young girl smiled, and in an instant, her beautiful face blossomed, radiant and captivating, exuding charm and allure.

Even Han Li, who had seen many beautiful women, couldn't help but be amazed.

"What a beauty."

"Truly worthy of being the number one beauty in the Chaotic Star Sea."

She truly deserves the potential to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Han Li thought to himself.

It should be noted that this is only the situation after the woman concealed her true appearance. If she were to reveal her true face, which he had already seen, she would be even more of a scourge to the country and its people.

Bu Xu, standing to the side, was dumbfounded, utterly astonished by Zi Ling's appearance at that moment.

Instead, they became jealous in various ways.

The way she looked at Han Li had a different kind of look in her eyes.

Han Li didn't take it to heart.

Why bother arguing with someone who dies young?
"Alright, you two, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Zi Ling dared to explore the Void Heaven Palace, so she must have been prepared; otherwise, she would have been courting death. With her intelligence and meticulousness, she wouldn't have been as reckless as in the original timeline.

Besides, isn't there a loyal protector right beside her?

After uttering a sentence, Han Li stepped through a faint white light barrier, leaving the safe zone untouched by the surrounding demons and ghosts, and descended the small earthen mound, which was a dozen feet high. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the hazy, ghostly mist.

The Void Heaven Palace has three gates.

The first hurdle is this ghostly fog.

The second level is the Ice and Fire Path.

The third level is an exquisite illusion.

The first level, the Ghost Mist, wasn't actually that difficult to pass many years ago.

Those in the Core Formation stage can easily pass through the challenges.

Some lucky ones can get through the mid-to-late stages of Foundation Building.

However, as more and more cultivators became trapped in the ghostly mist, it became dangerous.

One reason is that this place has extremely heavy yin energy, which easily nourishes evil spirits and demons.

In other words, the environment is conducive to raising ghosts.

Secondly, the resentment of the deceased cultivators was even stronger. They were extremely unwilling after death and transformed into fierce spirits with considerable magical power.

These ghosts harbor extreme hatred for those who dare to break into the temple in later generations, and if they encounter them, they will fight to the death.

The more the ghosts hate cultivators, the more they haunt them, and the more cultivators who attempt to pass the trials will die. In the recent Ghost Mist trials, even many Core Formation stage cultivators have perished here.

Commonly known as a vicious cycle.

At first, there were only a few ghosts of varying sizes testing the ghost mist. Now, there are not only high-level soul-snatching flying spirits, but also zombies comparable to high-level ones, and even a great ghost at the late stage of Core Formation has emerged.

In addition, there are also ghost cultivators lurking in this place.

Without some skill, it's extremely difficult to pass this test.

and so.

He had previously knocked out those Foundation Establishment cultivators and some weak early Core Formation cultivators outside the Void Heaven Palace, which was truly a kind act.

Isn’t it good to be alive?
Why do you have to come here to die?

After Han Li left, Bu Xu looked at Wang Ning.

“Miss Ziling, this place is dangerous. Many Core Formation cultivators have perished here in the past, and even some mid-Core Formation cultivators have ended up with no remains. It is really not advisable to act alone, as accidents are inevitable. Since we have been teleported together, it is fate. Why don’t we work together to get through this trial?”

That's absolutely true.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ning fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

If she stayed with Han Li, she would definitely be safe, much safer than traveling with the person in front of her.

But that senior colleague was clearly deliberately distancing himself from her.

She admitted that she was wrong to save her mother back then, and that her mother's attempt to drag her seniors down with her was even more wrong. But she couldn't just stand by and watch her mother perish.
She wanted to ease the tension between them.

No matter what.

This senior colleague has an eccentric temperament and is difficult to fathom.

Her unparalleled beauty and charm had absolutely no effect on him.

That's it.

After pursing her lips, Wang Ning nodded:

"It is only right that we work together. However, Fellow Daoist Bu has profound cultivation and great strength. If we encounter any trouble, I would appreciate it if you would lend a little more strength. Zi Ling will be extremely grateful and will definitely invite you to express your gratitude later."

"Alright, Miss Ziling, don't worry, I will do my best."

He was at the peak of the mid-stage Core Formation realm.

He also possessed quite a few treasures.

Even when facing some cultivators in the late stage of Core Formation, he could hold his own.

The mere ghost fog is nothing to worry about.

"By the way, Miss Ziling, which direction should we choose next?"

What do you think, Fellow Daoist Bu?

Wang Ning did not answer, but instead asked a question in return.

"How about we follow behind that fellow Daoist from before?"

Bu Xu pointed to the spot where Han Li had walked.

There.

Someone had just walked by; the fog hadn't completely recombine yet, and traces of their passage could still be seen.

This is tantamount to letting Han Li lie in the trap while they reap the benefits.

Zi Ling thought for a moment, then frowned slightly:

"Isn't this bad?"

"There are no clear roads here, and even if there were, they wouldn't belong to that fellow Daoist. Could he possibly restrict which direction we choose? Besides, we have no ill intentions. If that fellow Daoist encounters trouble ahead, we can come to his rescue in time, can't we?"

Bu Xu appeared magnanimous.

"Oh well."

The two then stepped out of the white light shield area.

He followed closely behind Han Li.

just.

The situation may be different from what Bu Xu and Wang Ning speculated.

Ghostly mist has the inherent property of obscuring vision and also has the effect of suppressing divine sense perception.

Even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator's divine sense can only perceive a range of about ten miles around.

At the Core Formation stage, one can only perceive a range of one or two miles.

Han Li, however, possessed an exceptionally powerful divine sense, with a perception range exceeding thirty miles. The numerous limitations imposed by the Ghost Mist were significantly reduced for him.

In this situation, it is easy to detect areas where vengeful spirits gather in advance.

"Tihun has been hungry for a long time, it's time to give the little guy a treat."

then.

He plunged headlong into the area where the vengeful spirits were active, as determined by the assessment.

And extremely fast.

The two people who wanted to follow were completely unaware of this situation.

They followed suit and plunged headlong into the area teeming with vengeful spirits.

Han Li took Ti Hun with him to enjoy the buffet.

I wonder what those two are planning to do by following them?
