A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

"Hey, fellow Taoist, don't worry. This little old man got this thing by taking a strange risk. It's definitely extraordinary." Jin Yuanqian said with a few laughs.

Han Li nodded, said nothing more, and immediately led the old man towards the hall on one side.

Walking into the palace gate, there is a huge hall dozens of feet wide. There is only a middle-aged woman in the foundation building period wearing a blue shirt, meditating on a futon in the middle with her eyes closed.

As soon as she saw Han Li and the old man walking in, she immediately opened her eyes and stood up.

"The two fellow Taoists are here to see some of the secret techniques in our collection, or they need a secret room to share their cultivation experiences with others." The woman glanced at Han Li and said with a smile.

"Just give us a secret room for the two of us." Han Li said calmly, without the slightest interest in reading the classics. After all, secret techniques that could be seen by ordinary monks were considered ordinary.

"You need a spiritual stone, and as soon as you leave this temple, the secret room will be taken back." The middle-aged woman said with a smile.

Then he reached out to his waist and took a look, and a miniature stone house a few inches in size appeared in his hand.

Han Li was startled when he saw this thing, but then he took out a spiritual stone and handed it to the other party with a normal expression, then took the thing and looked at it curiously.

"What? Is this your first time seeing Tianji House?" The middle-aged woman asked with interest after seeing Han Li's expression.

"Yes, I have indeed never seen anything like this. Is this a magic weapon?" Han Li weighed the thing in his hand. It was light and weightless, as if it had no weight at all.

"The Tianji House can be regarded as a magic weapon, but it is not a magic weapon. But it is very convenient. As long as you inject spiritual energy, it can be enlarged and used. Of course, the low-level Tianji House can only be enlarged and reduced, and has no other effects. It is really difficult to say that it is a magic weapon. A little more. But high-level Tianji Houses can come with formations, blessings and restrictions. They can even be comparable to magic weapons. Of course, what we give fellow Taoists now is just a more common one. In addition to soundproofing and preventing prying eyes, It has no other effects." The woman explained to Han Li in detail.

Han Li was surprised when he heard this. Although he was told that there were secret rooms available for rent when he came in, he didn't expect such a strange thing. This thing doesn't exist in Tiannan.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your advice." Han Li thanked him. Then under the other party's guidance, he walked towards the side hall on one side.

Jin Yuan followed Han Li closely, but after a moment he couldn't help but said:

"This is the first time that Taoist friend has seen the Tianji House, which really surprises the little old man. But it's no wonder, this kind of thing is usually sold by Tianji Pavilion to casual cultivators and high-level monks who often travel long distances. . Taoist friend is so young and has such cultivation. It can be seen that he is a disciple carefully cultivated by any sect. Naturally, he will not buy such flashy things. And this kind of thing is really expensive. If you have spiritual stones, you will naturally go there. It’s more cost-effective to purchase magic weapons and elixirs.”

"Oh, how many spiritual stones does a common Tianji House like this cost? Are they all of this shape?" Han Li asked casually.

"The low-level ones only require more than a hundred spirit stones, and the high-level ones depend on the attached magic circle restrictions. But they are basically much more expensive than the same-level magic weapons. As for the shapes, they come in all kinds of shapes. There are towers There are various shapes, such as pavilions and houses. I even heard that the Tianji House on the top floor of Tianji Pavilion is basically a small cave, which is extremely convenient." Seeing that Han Li seemed interested in this, the old man told him what he knew All were told.

"Small cave?" Han Li paused when he heard this and was a little surprised.

"Hey! Brother Han, it's better not to think about such a good thing. The simplest one of this kind of cave-type secret house costs tens of thousands of spiritual stones, which is beyond the reach of monks like us." The old man said with some self-deprecation.

Han Li's expression returned to normal and he nodded.

By this time, they had arrived at the side hall, and saw five or six stone houses sparsely appearing in the hall, all of which were exactly the same as the miniature house in Han Li's hand when enlarged. And the surface flashes with a faint white light.

Han Li's heart moved, and he casually used his spiritual consciousness to detect one of the houses. Sure enough, as soon as the divine consciousness made contact, it was blocked by a layer of restrictions. This kind of restriction is extremely simple, and the consciousness can easily break through it. However, once the restriction is broken, the owner of the house will immediately notice that someone is peeping, and he will immediately become alert.

This is really a safer way to prevent others from eavesdropping.

With this thought in his mind, Han Li held up the miniature house, his hands flashed with green light, and injected some spiritual power into it.

Suddenly the room became slightly heated and trembled continuously. Han Li threw the room to an open space without hesitation.

There was a flash of white light, and after a muffled "boom" sound, a room several feet in size appeared in front of him.

"Brother Jin, please come in!" Han Li glanced at the stone house, then turned his head and said politely to the old man.

"You're welcome, little old man. Don't tell me, although I've seen this Tianji House before, I really haven't entered it a few times." Jin Yuan touched the sparse short beard on his chin, smiled, and went up He opened the stone door a few steps forward and walked in.

Han Li smiled, entered the house slowly, and closed the door behind him.

The house is not big inside, but it is exquisite.

There are not only stone tables and chairs in the middle, but also a long bluestone bed. The old man was already sitting on a stone chair in a grand manner.

Han Li stretched out a palm and pressed it against the wall, instantly activating the restraint in the room, before walking over and sitting opposite the old man.

"I heard from my Taoist friend earlier that I need to know something about something. I don't know what it is?" the old man suddenly asked with a serious expression.

"It's nothing. I plan to stay in Guanning Mansion for a while, but I don't know much about the sects and some taboos of this place. I heard the Taoist friend's accent sounds like a local. I just want to ask the Taoist friend for some information." Han Li said calmly.

"So it's this kind of thing. No problem! I'm not bragging. Not only in Guanning Mansion, but also in the entire Liaozhou, there is nothing that I don't know about. What does Brother Han want to hear first?" The old man's expression relaxed. Said with a smile.

"Since the owners of this place are the three major aristocratic families in Guanning Mansion, let's start with the aristocratic families here. It would be best to talk about some of the major events that have happened in recent years, so that I can gain insights." Han Li said with an expression. Said comfortably.

"The Guan Ning Mansion's Immortal Cultivation Family, how should I put it? This area should basically belong to the Confucian sect, so most of the large and small aristocratic families come from the Confucian sect. But this is not the case for the four major Guan Ning aristocratic families, except for Kong Outside of the family, the other three families each have their own inheritance."

"Four major aristocratic families? Isn't Guan Ning one of the three major aristocratic families?" Han Li asked casually with the corner of his mouth raised.

"Hey! The three Guan Ning families have only happened in the past few years. Ten years ago, they should have been the four major families. But among them, the Feng family somehow offended the other three families, and was uprooted by these three families overnight. All the direct disciples were eradicated. I heard that the Feng family was discussing some major matter at that time, and all the direct disciples happened to be gathered together..." The old man continued to talk.

Han Li sat and listened quietly to the other party's account of what happened to the Feng family back then, and then compared it with what Feng Zhen told him one by one to see if there was anything fishy about it.

After talking about the aristocratic family, the old man began to talk about the different sects and sects in Guan Ning. The old man named Jin Yuan has obviously been to many places and experienced some things. He seems to know not only Jiangning Mansion but other cities as well.

Han Li was very satisfied with what he heard and had a clear understanding of the entire world of cultivating immortals in Liaozhou. This is much more detailed information than the information obtained from Cao Mengrong.

However, this person seems to be a talkative person. When he talks, he spits and talks eloquently without stopping for a moment. He even expressed some of his own opinions from time to time. It took a full quarter of an hour to say this. When the old man finally closed his mouth with some unfinished thoughts, Han Li smiled:

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for telling me so much. However, now I can talk about Brother Jin's rare treasure. Can you take it out so that I can open my eyes first?"

"Exotic treasure? Of course. I would also like Brother Han to help me identify it!" The old man agreed complacently.

Then, under Han Li's gaze, he mysteriously took out a jade box from the storage bag at his waist and placed it on the table.

Han Li glanced at the box, his consciousness covering it. But then he was startled.

As soon as his spiritual consciousness swept over it, the contents in the box produced a strange repelling force and were unable to penetrate into the box.

This time, Han Li became really interested.

Jin Yuan carefully opened the lid of the box, revealing a dazzling golden object. The size of a fist, hazy appearance.

"Fellow Taoist, you can take a closer look at this thing. See if you can recognize it." Jin Yuan pushed the jade box in front of Han Li and said somewhat earnestly.

Han Li's eyebrows jumped slightly, and he picked up the jade box without saying a word, held it in front of his eyes, and looked at it carefully.

Only then did he see clearly that it turned out to be a bubble-like existence, with a strange golden light shining on the surface and a transparent and empty center. But there is no aura on it at all, just like a mortal thing.

After looking at it for a long time, Han Li stretched out a finger, and with a flash of inspiration, it was wrapped in a layer of green light and lightly poked it. Then the finger sank deep inside!

Soft, soft, as if it were really a bubble.

A look of surprise appeared on Han Li's face. After thinking for a while, he released his spiritual consciousness again and wrapped it around it.

As a result, the bubbles flickered a few times and pushed the consciousness aside.

However, this time, Han Li increased the intensity of his consciousness without thinking, and passed around the object one after another.

Suddenly a strange scene appeared.

I could see the golden light on the surface of the bubbles in the box flashing continuously, but the volume began to expand and contract for a while, not much, just like a strong beating heart.
