"Senior … Are you okay?"
The ugly man saw Han Li holding the two jade slips in a daze. It had been a while, but he was still in a daze, so he couldn't help but remind him.
"How many spirit stones are these two jade slips?" Han Li recovered from his contemplation and asked.
The ugly man gave a number. It was not expensive, so Han Li paid the spirit stones.
"You just said that your family has been in the map jade slips business for generations, so you should know a lot about the Desolate Continent. I have some questions to ask. If your answers can satisfy me, these spirit stones will belong to you." Han Li turned his hand and took out a set of spirit stones and placed it on the counter.
"Senior, if you have any questions, please ask. This junior will definitely tell you everything he knows!" The ugly man glanced at the top grade spirit stones greedily and said while patting his chest.
"Starting from this Sea Town, if you want to cross the Desolate Continent, is there any safe way?
For example, teleportation array? "Han Li asked slowly.
"Senior seems to know very little about the Desolate Continent. Among the continents in this region, our Desolate Continent is located in a remote area. Most of the areas are barren. Even if there are some cities, there are few people in the cities. It is very desolate, so very few cities have teleportation arrays.
It is even more impossible for a small border city like Sea Town to have teleportation arrays, so if you want to go to other places, you can only fly there directly. "The ugly man scratched his head and said.
When Han Li heard this, he frowned.
"By the way, it is not necessary to fly all the way.
There is indeed no teleportation array in Sea Town, but in the central part of the continent, it is much more prosperous than here. There are some forces that have set up teleportation arrays in the city, but it is said that the cost is very high. "The ugly man saw Han Li frown and suddenly thought of something, so he continued quickly.
"Which cities have teleportation arrays, do you know them?" Han Li nodded and asked again.
"On the map of the Desolate Continent, the cities with teleportation arrays are marked. Senior may not have noticed it, but it is those marks that look like white vortexes." The ugly man said with a smile.
Han Li was taken aback. He sent his Divine Sense into the yellow jade slip again, and soon discovered that some cities in the central and eastern part of the Desolate Waves Continent indeed had a tiny white vortex on them.
"I see." Han Li withdrew his Divine Sense and nodded.
There were many cities like this behind him. As long as he flew to the central region of the Desolate Wave Continent, he wouldn't need to take any risks.

"Senior, do you really plan on crossing the Desolate Wave Continent?" The ugly man asked hesitantly.
Han Li pondered for a moment and nodded.
"I won't hide it from Senior. There are many dangers along the way. If I travel alone, I'm afraid that some of the natural moats will be even more difficult to cross.
In my opinion, Senior can go to the Immortal Inn in the city to take a look, "the ugly man suggested in a euphemistic manner.
When Han Li heard this, he thoughtfully nodded his head and said, "Good. Many thanks for dispelling my doubts. These spirit stones are yours."
Although he knew that he would soon come into contact with the Immortal Palace after leaving the Black Wind Sea Area, he didn't expect that he would come into contact with them as soon as he arrived at the Desolate Wave Continent.
He had some understanding of this so-called Immortal Inn in Black Wind City. It was said that it was a place set up by the Immortal Palace in various cities. There, he could accept various tasks issued by the Immortal Palace, and he could also issue tasks on his own.
The meaning of the other party couldn't be more obvious. He thought that it was too risky to cross the entire continent with a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage. It was safer to find a convenient task before forming a team.
With his current cultivation, it wasn't impossible for him to cross the continent. However, he was unfamiliar with the place and he didn't know the whereabouts of his various magic treasures. Naturally, it was better to be safe.
As he thought about it, he nodded slightly to the ugly man, turned around, and walked out.
There were no flight restrictions in Linhai City. Han Li flew along the main street of the city for a while, and a golden building appeared in front of him.
The building was built on a low mountain, and its entire body was shining with golden light, as if it was made of pure gold. The most peculiar thing was that the golden building's roof was carved with a huge golden dragon relief. It roared at the sky, and it was filled with a high and mighty atmosphere.
The entire golden building, at first glance, was somewhat similar to a palace in the mortal world. The mortals passing by all looked at this place with a trace of respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Above the door of the golden palace, the two ancient characters "Immortal Inn" were written.
Han Li stood at the door for a moment, then he stepped into the hall.
The first thing that came into view was a very large hall. It was at least a thousand feet in size, and it was crowded with cultivators in different clothes. However, at first glance, they were mainly middle and low level cultivators below the Deity Transformation stage. There were almost no cultivators above the Void Refinement stage.
On the left side of the hall was a large shop, which displayed all kinds of pills, magic treasures, and other spiritual materials. At first glance, the pills and magic treasures sold here were better than those sold in the shops in the city, and it attracted many cultivators.
On the right side of the hall, there was a long stone table at the entrance. It seemed to be a shop that specialized in buying things. There were also many cultivators standing in line here, selling all kinds of materials in their hands.
The people in charge of the hall and these shops were all golden-robed cultivators. Their golden robes were also embroidered with golden dragons. The one with the highest cultivation was a Void Refinement stage cultivator who was sitting in the depths of the hall with his eyes closed.
The entire hall looked like a small city. Compared to the deserted city outside, it was much more lively.
In the center of the hall stood a huge green jade stone wall. Under the faint golden light flowing on the surface, lines of small characters alternated between each other from time to time. It seemed to be a description of the various missions and rewards.
There were many cultivators around the stone wall, all of them looking at the missions on it. Some of them were whispering to each other from time to time, as if they were judging whether these missions were worth taking.
Han Li glanced at the shops to his left and right, then no longer paid them any attention. He walked directly to the stone wall at the center of the hall. After standing in the crowd, he raised his head to look at the missions.
There were many missions on the stone wall, and they were constantly alternating between each one.
However, some of the missions at the top of the stone wall were displayed in small golden characters and wouldn't disappear. The other missions that alternated between appearing and disappearing were described in small white characters.
After listening to the discussions of the crowd, Han Li came to a realization.
The golden characters displayed the missions issued by the Immortal Palace, and the small white characters below them were issued by ordinary cultivators.
After understanding this, he calmed his mind and his gaze wandered through the missions.
There were indeed missions to recruit companions, and there were many of them. Some were purely to recruit companions, and some were escort missions to other cities.
These missions had different cultivation requirements, but generally, the longer distance required the cultivator to be at the Deity Transformation Stage or even the Void Training Stage. However, this was normal. Except for a few areas on the Wasteland Continent, other places were full of danger. There were even many cities that were tens of thousands of miles of uninhabited wastelands. If one's cultivation was not enough, he would be courting death if he wanted to cross them.
When he came out of the ugly man's shop, he had decided on his next destination. It was a city called Ming Qiu City near the center of the Wasteland Continent.
It was the closest to Linhai City, and there was also a teleportation array there.
Han Li swept his gaze through the area and quickly locked onto three targets.
One was to recruit companions, one was to escort a caravan, and the last was also an escort mission, but it was to escort a certain person.

He walked to the stone wall and said to a golden-robed middle-aged man sitting there, "I want to take the mission number 252."
This was the mission to escort a caravan. The other two missions were still early, but this one would set off in three days.
The golden-robed middle-aged man took out a jade tablet in the shape of a book and said without looking up, "Give me the Deity Badge."
"Deity Badge?"
Han Li was surprised, but then he immediately understood that it should be something similar to an identity badge used to accept missions.
"Why? Have you not received the Deity Badge yet?
Do you see that room? You can get it there. "
The golden-robed man frowned, but he still pointed to a room with a blue door in the deepest part of the hall.
Han Li expressed his thanks and strode over to them.
His current appearance was an illusion. He hoped that no one would see through him.
He was wanted by the Shifang Tower, so he did not want to show his real face to the Celestial Palace, which was an organization that covered the entire Northern Frost Celestial Realm.
Han Li walked in front of the azure door and let out a light breath before knocking on the door.
The door squeaked and opened automatically. There was a small room inside, and an old man in a golden robe was sitting there. He was a Form Synthesis Cultivator.
Han Li was relieved when he saw this. With the old man's cultivation, the possibility of him finding out that he had changed his appearance should be very small.
"You are here to apply for the Deity Badge, right? Come here." The golden-robed old man waved to Han Li.
Han Li cupped his hands in salute and strode over to them.
"Tell me your name and where you are from." The old man took out a book and a silver giant pen and asked.

"Liu Shi, from the Black Wind Sea."
The old man nodded and wrote a few times on the jade book with the silver pen in his hand. Then he took out a golden badge and shook it slightly.
A streak of golden light flew out and enveloped Han Li's body.
Han Li's heart skipped a beat, but he kept a calm face.
The golden light flashed and Han Li's image appeared on the badge.
The old man waved the silver pen on the badge twice, and the golden light on the badge lit up and then dimmed.
The golden-robed old man tossed the golden medallion to Han Li and said, "That's enough. This medallion will be your proof of identity when you receive missions and rewards from the various immortal pavilions. Make sure to keep it safe."
Han Li reached out to catch it, and he was a little stunned.
The golden light just now didn't seem to have any detection function. It only recorded his image. The identification of identity and the creation of the badge were too lax.
Or did the Impermanence Alliance's mask have a special effect of hiding from the Immortal Palace?
"The Immortal Palace has no intention of knowing too much about you, and we don't want to distinguish the truth from the lies." The golden-robed old man suddenly blinked and said with a hint of meaning.
Han Li raised his eyebrows and nodded to the golden-robed old man, then turned and walked out.
Looking at the crowd in front of him, he had a slight understanding.
It was probably because the handling of the Deity Badge was very lax that so many people gathered here.
With the Deity Badge, Han Li quickly accepted the mission.
As the golden-robed middle-aged man made a gesture, a golden light flashed, and a message appeared on Han Li's Deity Badge, asking him to go to an inn in the city.
It should be to see the person who issued the mission.
