As soon as Han Li stepped into the flower branch space, he frowned. He felt that something was wrong.
He didn't have the time to think any further when a wave of enormous rumbling assaulted his face and directly penetrated the depths of his heart. Moreover, waves of ghost howls were mixed within it, and they were extremely sharp yet sometimes high and sometimes low, causing one to feel extremely irritated upon hearing them.
He felt his mind shake, and his hands and feet couldn't help but dance. He hurriedly used the Spirit Refinement Art to stabilize his soul, and then looked in the direction of the sound.
The source of the ghostly howls was the pavilion where Weeping Soul was cultivating in seclusion.
At this moment, the pavilion was enveloped by a black gas that was as thick as ink. As it rotated violently, it formed a vortex of black gas. Numerous ghostly shadows could be faintly seen flashing in and out of the vortex, and the attacks from them caused the restrictions around the pavilion to tremble endlessly.
Fortunately, those restrictions were personally refined by Han Li, and they were integrated with the power of the Law of Time. Otherwise, they might not be able to withstand the impact of the black Qi.
"What's going on?" Han Li hurriedly flew over and released a wisp of divine sense into the restriction.
However, as soon as his divine sense entered the black Qi vortex, it was immediately swallowed. A powerful devouring force came out of the vortex, and it seemed to be invading his mind.
Han Li hurriedly withdrew his other divine sense, and only then did he stop the strange devouring force from the vortex.
His eyebrows moved, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
Needless to say, the situation in front of him was caused by Weeping Soul in the pavilion. It seemed that Weeping Soul had made a breakthrough after absorbing Crow Nest Ghost King's vitality.
However, Han Li immediately pondered. It was not good for him to intervene in the situation in front of him, and he could only rely on Weeping Soul to get through it. With Weeping Soul's ability, it should be fine.
He then raised his hand and waved. Dozens of golden lights shot out from his hand and landed near the pavilion, and a thicker golden light curtain opened up.
This restriction light curtain also contained the power of the Law of Time, and it resonated with the restriction inside. The golden lights of the two light curtains intertwined and immediately stabilized.
Most of the ghostly howls coming from inside were also blocked, and Han Li was not affected by it.
He nodded and then went to the newly built pavilion next to the herb garden.
The three floors of the pavilion were filled with various ores and materials collected from the Taisui Immortal Abode. There were also some Numinous Treasures and Immortal artifacts.
Some large spiritual materials were piled up on the ground outside the pavilion. As for the spiritual herbs transplanted from the Taisui Immortal Abode, there were countless of them.
He placed Little White on the top floor of the pavilion and set up a protective restriction around it. Only then did he relax.
Han Li then looked at the many treasures inside and outside the pavilion with a happy expression, but also a headache.
There were truly too many various treasures gathered from the Taisui Immortal Estate this time, and it was extremely troublesome to deal with them. But if they were to deal with all of them, then the amount of Immortal Energy Stones they could obtain would be unprecedented.
However, ever since he left the Taisui Immortal Abode, he'd been busy with all sorts of things and hadn't had the time to care about this matter. Now, he finally had some free time.
Han Li took out a blank jade slip with a flip of his hand, and then he carefully counted the various treasures in the pavilion, classified them, and recorded them.
After a busy day, he finally finished sorting out the treasures in the pavilion. Then, he went outside and sorted out and recorded the spiritual materials and various spiritual herbs outside.
After doing this, Han Li sat down near the pavilion. With a wave of his sleeve, a dazzling array of items appeared in front of him. It was a pile of storage magic tools of various shapes.
These storage magic tools belonged to the cultivators of various sects who had fallen in the Taisui Immortal Abode. He collected them along the way, and it could be considered a great harvest on this trip.
Among them, the most valuable were the storage magic tools of She Chan and Lan Yuanzi.
Han Li had roughly scanned She Chan's storage magic tool before, but he only looked at the treasures in it and didn't examine it in detail.
He first took She Chan's storage magic tool and waved his hand.
With a "clatter", a large number of items appeared on the ground.
After Han Li glanced at it, a trace of joy appeared on his face.
As expected, She Chan, a Zenith Heaven existence, didn't disappoint him. He was extremely wealthy. Not counting the various materials and immortal tools, he had more than 20 million Immortal Essence Stones.
Moreover, there were 30 to 40 special Immortal Essence Stones among them. These Immortal Essence Stones were a size larger than mid-grade Immortal Essence Stones, and they emitted a dazzling flame-like light that contained astonishing Immortal Spiritual Energy fluctuations.
"These are high-grade Immortal Essence Stones?" Han Li's eyes lit up, and he held one of the Immortal Essence Stones in his hand.
A pure and vast Immortal Spiritual Energy fluctuation emanated from it. His body felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring, and it was so comfortable that he almost couldn't help but moan.
Han Li grinned and looked at the Immortal Essence Stone in his hand fondly.
Although he had never seen it before, he could confirm that this Immortal Essence Stone in front of him was definitely a high-grade Immortal Essence Stone. The Immortal Spiritual Energy contained in it was much richer and purer than the one in his body.
If he used this high-grade Immortal Essence Stone to restore his Immortal Spiritual Energy, he would probably be able to replenish it in a few breaths.
However, high-grade Immortal Essence Stones were extremely precious, and it was too extravagant to use them to restore his Immortal Spiritual Energy.
Han Li had read in the ancient records that high-grade Immortal Essence Stones had many magical uses. They could be used to refine high-grade Immortal Artifacts, make breakthroughs, and even behead corpses.
He fiddled with these high-grade Immortal Essence Stones for a while, and then put them away like treasures.
Han Li then put away the other Immortal Essence Stones with a flip of his hand, and sorted out the other items. Then, he took Lan Yuanzi's storage Magic Tool.
When he had captured Lan Yuanzi in the Time Tower, he had taken this storage magic tool with him.
Han Li sent his spiritual sense into the storage Magic Tool, and then took out the other items and sorted them out.
Lan Yuanzi's Immortal Essence Stones were slightly less than She Chan's, only about 6 million. However, most of them were mid-grade, and there wasn't even a single high-grade Immortal Essence Stone.
He then sorted out the other storage Magic Tools one by one. The owners of these storage Magic Tools didn't have a high cultivation base, and their wealth couldn't be compared to She Chan, Lan Yuanzi, and the others. All the Immortal Essence Stones they had added up to only about 4 million.
Han Li put all the Immortal Essence Stones into his storage Magic Tool, and he couldn't help but smile.
Previously, he had killed people everywhere to rob their treasures, and had accumulated a lot of wealth. He had less than 10 million Immortal Essence Stones on him, but now it had more than tripled.
Moreover, there were still many treasures around him that hadn't been dealt with. If he sold them all, his wealth would probably double.
Han Li picked out the treasures around him and in the pavilion that might be useful. Then, he took out the Samsara Palace mask, opened the trading light screen, and put the other treasures in the Samsara Palace for sale.
There were too many treasures around him, and it took him more than a month to sell most of them, earning more than 30 million Immortal Essence Stones.
This was because Han Li was in a hurry to get rid of these things, so he didn't bid a high price. Otherwise, it would be more than this price.
The rest of the things were somewhat unpopular and not easy to sell, so he put them on the trading platform of the Samsara Palace and slowly waited for a buyer.
Anyway, he already had more than 70 million Immortal Essence Stones in his hands, which was enough for him to use for a long time.
With so many Immortal Essence Stones, Han Li would be considered quite wealthy, not only among Grand Celestial Being cultivators, but even among Grand Celestial Being cultivators. In fact, even the largest sects in some small immortal realms may not be as wealthy as he was.
With these Immortal Essence Stones as a backing, he was more confident than ever in buying materials of the law of time.
It was a pity that materials that contained the power of the law of time were hard to come by. Even if he had Immortal Essence Stones, he would have to wait for the right opportunity.
At this moment, Han Li's eyebrows moved, and he flew out of the flower space to the tent outside.
"Senior Shi Mu," Sang Tu's voice came from outside, but he did not step into the tent.
Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard stood outside the tent at the moment. In addition to the two of them, they each brought a dozen attendants.
Behind them, there was a flying boat made of bone. It was not small, about forty to fifty zhang long. However, the material it was made of was very ordinary. Beside the flying boat, there were two tiger-like demonic beasts with wings on their backs. It seemed that they were used to pull the carriage.
Behind the flying boat were several small flying boats and flying carriages, also pulled by the tiger-like beasts. There were some goods on them, and it was unknown if Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard were planning to transport them to the Eight Desolate Mountain to sell.
"Come in."
Han Li sensed the situation outside with his spirit sense. His expression changed slightly, knowing that it was time to set off.
"Senior Shi Mu, our two clans are ready. When do you think we should set off?" Sang Tu asked respectfully.
"Let's go at once," Han Li said.
"Yes," Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard replied.
Han Li walked out of the tent and was personally led to the flying boat by Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard. They arranged the best room for him.
Then, as light shone on the flying ship, it floated into the air and was pulled by the two Double Winged Tigers to fly forward.
Although the strength of these two winged tigers was not strong, they seemed to be born with extremely fast flying speed. They were not inferior to some cultivators in the Taiyi realm.
Han Li saw this scene. Although he had a better flying boat to speed up the process, there was a possibility that his identity would be exposed, so he did not do anything.
"I'll leave the matters outside to you. I'm going to retreat here. Don't disturb me unless there's something important," he said to Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard.
"Yes," Sang Tu and Cloud Leopard hurriedly agreed and quickly left.
Han Li saw that the two were so obedient and was quite satisfied. He raised his hand and set up restrictions everywhere in the room. Then, he opened the entrance of the flower space again and flew in, sitting down in the three-story attic.
Although the things he sold before were quite valuable, he did not care much about them.
The last time he went to the Taisui Immortal Mansion, his biggest gain was not those things.
Han Li sat quietly for a moment. Then, he waved his hand again and four items appeared beside him.
The first was a golden scroll that was coiled into a roll and roughly tied with a golden thread. It was the scroll that was placed together with the Magic Lamp of Time.
The second was a purple jade slip, which was the "Five Thunders True Scripture" given to him by the Black Heavens Evil Lord.
The third was an ancient golden lamp. It was the Magic Lamp of Time, and the last was the diagram of the Through Heaven Sword Array.
These four items, together with the white fire pearl of the Refined Flame Firebird, were the biggest gains of the trip to the Taisui Immortal Mansion.
Han Li put the Magic Lamp of Time and the other items aside and took the golden scroll first.
He had roughly studied the other three items. Only this scroll was not opened and he did not know what it was.
However, since this scroll could be placed together with the Magic Lamp of Time, it was definitely not an ordinary scroll.
