"Haha, if that's the case, then I'll take Elder Li to Yu Long Peak first." Qi Liang laughed after hearing Han Li's words.
"I've already troubled Elder Qi too much today. Now that I have the elder's token, I can handle the rest of the matters myself.
Since the two of you haven't seen each other for a long time, it's a good time to catch up. "Han Li quickly waved his hand and declined tactfully.
"Elder Li really has the moral character of helping others achieve their goals.
Speaking of which, there's a map of our Fire Dragon Path in the storage bracelet I just gave you. It's not impossible to find the place. "Yu Xiansheng's voice was loud and clear as he said with a smile.
"Then … I won't accompany Elder Li anymore. If you're free in the future, you can come to my Sky Star Hall." Qi Liang hesitated for a moment and said.
"Certainly." Han Li cupped his hands at the two and left.
After he left, Yu Xiansheng showed a playful smile on his face and said to Qi Liang, "Hehe, some people just don't know their limits.
"Hehe, some people just don't know their limits. They all think that the regular Deacon level missions are easy to do?
Only after they suffered did they realize that guarding a hall like us and cultivating in peace is the best long-term solution. "
Qi Liang listened and just smiled slightly. He didn't agree or disagree.
Han Li left the hall and went all the way to the square outside. He turned his hand and took out the map of Fire Dragon Path from the storage bracelet given by Elder Yu. After carefully looking at it for a moment, he put it away again.
Then, he turned his wrist again and took out a jade slip that recorded the brief situation of each hall of Fire Dragon Path and stuck it on his forehead.
After a while, he put away the jade slip and looked up. The escape light on his body suddenly brightened, and his figure rose from the ground and turned into a flying swan that swept into the sky.
In the following time, Han Li flew forward rapidly while looking down at the mountains below him.
He saw that the undulating mountain range was endless like condensed waves. Except for some of the buildings where the sect's halls and pavilions were located, most of them were covered by pure white snow, showing an appearance of ten thousand miles of ice and snow.
However, some of the rivers and streams that passed through the mountain range still maintained their dark green appearance. They did not freeze because of the high temperature and continued to flow slowly.
They looked like docile pythons that were lying dormant in this mountain range.
In fact, Han Li had already seen a few of them on his way to Fire Dragon Path. However, their names were different from those here. They were just the lower reaches of these rivers.
Staring at the silver-white land for a long time, Han Li also felt a little uncomfortable. He shifted his gaze back to the clear sky and flew towards the Imperial Dragon Peak with all his might.
…
Fifteen minutes later.
The Imperial Dragon Peak was one of the most magnificent peaks in the entire Zhong Ming Mountain Range. At the same time, it was also one of the most important peaks in the entire Fire Dragon Path. It was protected by a Restriction Array all year round, and it would be activated immediately once there was a situation. Moreover, there was always more than one True Immortal Realm cultivator guarding it.
At the foot of the Imperial Dragon Peak, the mountainside, and the top of the peak, there were densely packed buildings. They were all places used by the sect to collect all kinds of Cultivation Method books and secret technique books.
The hall located at the foot of the mountain was collectively known as the "Scripture Pavilion". The books stored inside were for the outer sect elders and disciples, while the "Inner Scripture Pavilion" located at the mountainside was for the inner sect elders and disciples.
The number of books in these two places was extremely large and covered a wide range. The elders and disciples could find the books they needed by themselves through the summary of the book list, and then go to the deacon elder to exchange merit points for the books.
The only hall located at the top of the mountain was set up for the inner sect elders and true disciples. It was called the "Skill Inheritance Hall". This was the place to exchange the core books of the sect.
At this time, on the white jade square in front of the Skill Inheritance Hall, a light suddenly descended from the sky and landed in front of the hall.
It was Han Li who came all the way from the Hall of Residence.
After landing, he slightly tidied up his clothes that were slightly disheveled by the wind, and raised his head to look at the hall in front of him.
The Skill Inheritance Hall in front of him looked very ordinary at first, as if it was an ordinary building with a single eave resting on the top of the mountain. But after a brief observation, he found that there was actually a great mystery in it.
First of all, the entire Skill Inheritance Hall was not built with bricks, earth, or wood. Instead, it was built with some kind of special metal.
Secondly, the outer walls and eaves were all engraved with all kinds of complicated talismans, and the entire building seemed to have a sense of nature.
Han Li guessed that this hall was probably a powerful Spirit Treasure, and it was even possible that it was a Postnatal Immortal Artifact.
If it was really like this, then it was really amazing.
After looking at it for a while, he restrained his thoughts and walked into the hall with his head held high.
After entering the hall, Han Li slightly raised the tip of his eyebrows.
There were no lights or candles in this hall, but the light was even brighter than outside the hall.
After looking around the hall, he discovered that aside from the wall where the gate of the hall was located, the other three walls had been forged with hundreds of metal squares, all of which were flashing with spiritual light, and had been sealed by independent restrictions.
Right in front of him was a middle-aged man with grizzled hair. He was leaning over the table in front of him, engrossed in reading an ancient book with a green cover that had yellowed pages. He didn't seem to notice Han Li at all.
Han Li stepped forward and was just about to say something when he caught a glimpse of the text on the page out of the corner of his eye, and he immediately faltered upon discovering that it was all in golden seal text.
"Judging from your attire, you're neither an inner elder nor a true disciple. What are you doing here?" The middle-aged man raised his head, revealing an elegant face.
"I'm Han Li Feiyu, a new inner elder. I came here in a hurry and didn't have time to change my attire," Han Li explained as he took out the elder token and handed it over.
The middle-aged man took the token and after examining it, he didn't immediately return it to Han Li. Instead, a faint smile appeared on his face as he cupped his hands toward Han Li.
"It's alright, many new elders are like this. It's not strange for them to come to Imperial Dragon Peak as soon as they enter the sect.
I'm Fang Yi, a deacon elder of the Skill Inheritance Hall. "
Han Li immediately returned the salute. His expression didn't change in the slightest, but he was a little puzzled.
This Elder Fang Yi was clearly only a Mahayana Stage cultivator. How could he take on such an important position as an elder of the Skill Inheritance Hall?
"Fellow Daoist, are you here to exchange for some kind of cultivation technique?
I'm not trying to discourage you, but judging from your current situation, you probably only have 100 merit points on you, right?
If you go to the Inner Scripture Pavilion on the mountainside, you may be able to exchange for a similar cultivation method, but here … "Fang Yi looked at Han Li and reminded him tactfully.
"Thank you for your reminder, Elder Fang.
I'm only here to ask about it. I don't dare to hope to exchange for a cultivation method. "Han Li heard this and put away his previous thoughts.
"I see. May I know which cultivation method Elder Li wants to ask about?" Fang Yi nodded and asked again.
"Long before I entered the sect, I heard that there is a cultivation method in our Fire Dragon Path that can be used to cultivate the law of time. May I know how many merit points are needed to exchange for it?" Han Li asked directly.
"Oh, you mean the 'Formless True Reincarnation Scripture'?" Fang Yi's expression changed slightly and he said with some surprise.
"Why, is there anything wrong with this cultivation method?" Han Li raised his eyebrows.
"Elder Li, do you have any understanding of the 'Formless True Reincarnation Scripture'?" Fang Yi didn't answer but asked a question instead.
"This … I don't know much about it. I hope Elder Fang can explain it to me." Han Li said.
"Because this cultivation method involves the law of time, it has become one of the three great cultivation methods of the Fire Dragon Path.
But in fact, since it mysteriously appeared in the Fire Dragon Path, no one has really comprehended the law of time from it. Almost all the people who cultivate it choose to give up at the first stage and change to another cultivation method. "Fang Yi explained.
"I see. May I know how many merit points are needed to exchange for the 'Formless True Reincarnation Scripture'?" Han Li nodded and asked in a seemingly casual manner.
"Even if the success rate of cultivating it is almost zero, Elder Li still wants to exchange for it?" Fang Yi asked curiously.
"I've been longing for it for a long time, and I really can't give it up.
I have to give it a try anyway. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to change to another cultivation method. "Han Li said with a smile.
Fang Yi thought for a while and continued.
"Since that's the case, I won't persuade you anymore.
The 'Formless True Reincarnation Scripture' is divided into a total of three stages. The Fire Dragon Path's disciples are allowed to exchange for one stage at a time.
The first stage only requires ninety merit points … "
"Only ninety merit points?" Han Li was greatly surprised and couldn't help but interrupt Fang Yi.
"Yes, the first stage does require ninety merit points.
Due to the characteristics of this cultivation method, it is the least chosen among the three great cultivation methods, so the price to exchange for it is much lower than the other two great cultivation methods. "Fang Yi explained.
"Then what about the last two stages?" Han Li immediately asked.
"The second stage requires nine thousand merit points, and only True Disciples and Inner Court Elders can exchange for it.
As for the third stage, only Dao Masters and Vice Dao Masters have the qualifications to exchange for it. At the same time, it also requires nine hundred thousand merit points. "Fang Yi said.
"The difference is actually so great …" Han Li couldn't help but click his tongue.
Fang Yi shook his head and said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you. The reason why the first stage doesn't have any restrictions and the exchange price is so low is because the sect has its own selfish considerations. They hope that there will really be someone among the vast number of disciples who can cultivate the Law of Time. However, no one has ever succeeded, so this cultivation method is becoming less and less popular."
"Thank you for telling me this, Elder Fang. I want to exchange for the first stage of the 'Formless True Reincarnation Scripture'." Han Li cupped his hands.
"Good. Since Elder Li has thought it through, then please wait for a moment." Fang Yi nodded and turned around, walking towards the metal squares.
