Daoist Huyan laughed heartily and waved his sleeve. A red light flashed on the table, and an orange-red wine jar suddenly appeared. It was about a foot tall, and judging from the simple and unadorned patterns on the jar and the ancient characters carved on it, it was obvious that it had existed for many years.
Before it was opened, a peculiar wine fragrance had already seeped through the wine jar and leisurely spread to the surroundings.
This fragrance is as ethereal as the clouds. Could it be that this is' Dream of Spring and Autumn '? "Han Li had only discussed the Dao of Wine with Daoist Huyan, so he had become quite proficient in the appraisal of various fine wines.
The main ingredient of this jar of 'Dream of Spring and Autumn' is the Cloudbirth Fruit. I've spent countless years to obtain this wine. "
Daoist Huyan gave Han Li a thumbs up, then opened the seal and took out three wine cups that were as white as jade, as if he was performing a magic trick, and poured three cups of wine.
The color of the wine was pure and translucent, like a bright mirror. It had a faint red color, and when placed in the white wine cups, it added even more color to the wine.
"Good wine!" Han Li tasted a mouthful, and his eyes immediately lit up.
As soon as the wine entered his mouth, even though he had prepared it beforehand, the red wine immediately turned into a cloud of hot air that permeated every part of his soul, making him feel very comfortable.
The wine also contained extremely pure Immortal Spiritual Energy. His dantian, which had been somewhat exhausted from the battle with the two from the Cangliu Palace, quickly recovered and became incomparably full.
"Of course! If I, Daoist Huyan, can only be considered as mediocre in terms of cultivation and strength, and I'm afraid that I'm not ranked among the top in the Northern Frost Celestial Realm. However, when it comes to brewing fine wine, with just this jar of 'Dream of Spring and Autumn', I'm definitely second to none!" Daoist Huyan said proudly.
"Whenever you drink, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. What a boast!" Yun Ni glared at Daoist Huyan, but she also picked up her wine cup and took a small sip.
The three of them chatted for a while as they drank, then began to talk about what happened after they parted ways that day.
As it turned out, after Daoist Huyan and Yun Ni left, they immediately concealed their tracks. Not long after, they were teleported out of the Netherfrost Celestial Mansion and appeared in the Blackwind Sea Region.
After a discussion, the two didn't take the risk to cross the Desolate Wind Realm again. Instead, they had the same idea as Han Li and planned to use a teleportation formation to leave. Unexpectedly, they encountered the people from the Cangliu Palace activating the formation. The two then took the opportunity to disguise themselves and mixed into the teleportation formation.
Han Li chuckled, "As expected, I sensed two rather familiar auras of Golden Immortals during the teleportation. It must be the two of you, right?"
"Not bad. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Li to brazenly seize the right to teleport in front of everyone from the Blue Flow Palace. Tsk tsk, how domineering," Daoist Huyan said with a smile.
"When I arrived at Black Wind City, the transportation formation was about to open. In a moment of desperation, I had no choice but to come up with this plan." Han Li smiled.
"Fellow Li, after we left that day, what was the outcome of your battle with Gongshu Jiu?" Yun Ni suddenly asked.
"Gongshu Jiu is dead," said Han Li.
Daoist Huyan and Yun Ni saw that Han Li was safe and sound. They had already guessed it, but after hearing it, they looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Celestial. Li, your power is far beyond our imagination. Even a Taiyi cultivator is no match for you. You are truly a genius. Let me give you a toast." Yun Ni's eyes flashed with admiration as she raised her cup.
"Brother Li's supernatural power is far beyond our imagination. Even the Taiyi cultivators are no match for you. You are indeed a genius. Let me propose a toast to you." Yun Ni's eyes were filled with admiration as she raised her wine glass.
"Celestial. Li Dao Shan. Back in the Torch Dragon Path, I knew that Li Dao Shan was extraordinary. I didn't think that it would only be a few hundred years. Cheers." Daoist Huyan laughed and raised his cup.
"Gongshu Jiu was killed by several people. I only used a little bit of my strength. You two are too kind." Han Li said modestly and drank another cup.
"What about the Rat Immortal?" Daoist Huyan asked.
"After Gongshu Jiu died, he quickly left and didn't bother me.
After I left the Taiyi Hall, I was suddenly teleported out of the Immortal Abode.
I reckon that someone is secretly controlling everything. According to the time, the time in the Immortal Abode is not up yet. "Han Li changed his mind and didn't tell the two about Lu Yuqing.
"Yes. It's very likely that the Rat Immortal did it … It's said that this person had some relationship with Immortal Lord Netherfrost. He should be very familiar with some of the restrictions in the Immortal Abode.
Fortunately, he's not a bloodthirsty person. Otherwise, even if we left the battlefield, we wouldn't be able to escape from him, "Daoist Huyan said with a relieved expression.
"This person is a Rat Immortal, but he has such a temperament. He seems to be different from the rumors." Han Li nodded thoughtfully. He felt quite lucky.
"This time, a Supervising Immortal Envoy of the Heavenly Court died in the Immortal Abode of Netherfrost. This is no small matter. I'm afraid that a new Supervising Immortal Envoy will soon arrive in the Northern Frost Celestial Realm to investigate this matter.
Those Supervising Envoys all possess surveillance secret techniques. You must be careful, "Daoist Huyan warned solemnly as he put down his wine cup.
"Thank you for your warning, Daoist Huyan. I will carefully conceal my tracks from now on," Han Li said with a shiver in his heart.
Daoist Huyan waved his hand and said, "With your abilities and the laws of the Supremes, you should be fine as long as you conceal yourself carefully.
If the Northern Frost Celestial Realm can no longer accommodate you, just leave, "Daoist Huyan said with a wave of his hand.
"Daoist Huyan, do you know a way to leave the Northern Frost Celestial Realm?" Han Li asked.
Daoist Huyan said, "I heard from Daoist Baili that there is a Qiankun Gate in the Northern Frost Celestial Palace that connects to other Celestial Realms. However, it is said that every time it is used, it consumes a lot of resources. Even the Palace Master might not be able to use it easily. Naturally, people like us don't have the qualifications to use it.
Even if we force our way through, it would be tantamount to suicide.
I'm afraid that before we find the right way, the Heavenly Court might have already sent people here, "Daoist Huyan said in a low voice.
Han Li shook his head and asked, "I've heard of this as well. Of course, this path won't work. Are there any other paths?"
Daoist Huyan said, "Of course there are other ways. It can be considered as a way to cross the Desolate Realm between the Celestial Realms.
I'm not trying to scare you, but the Desolate Realm is as dangerous as breaking into the Northern Frost Celestial Palace. Even a Primordial Unity cultivator might not be able to cross it safely.
However, it is said that the Samsara Palace has opened up a relatively safe passageway in the Desolate Domain. However, I don't know where that place is. "Daoist Huyan glanced at Yun Ni and said with a solemn expression.
Han Li nodded when he heard this.
It seemed that what Jiao San had told him that day was basically true. As for the safe passage that the Samsara Palace had opened, it was probably because he hadn't agreed to join them. Therefore, the Samsara Palace hadn't mentioned it to him. This was understandable.
Yun Ni said, "Daoist Li, the danger of the Desolate Realm lies in the unknown.
Many cultivators have tried to cross it, but the Celestial Realm is so vast that most of them have never returned.
It is better not to attempt it unless it is absolutely necessary, "Yun Ni said.
"Thank you for informing me and reminding me. I will take this matter seriously.
May I know what the two of you plan to do next?
Now that your identities have been exposed, I'm afraid that the Heavenly Court won't let you off, "Han Li said as he cupped his hands towards Huyan and Daoist Huyan.
Daoist Huyan smiled and said, "We will naturally hide carefully. Young Li, you don't need to worry about us.
I won't hide it from you. Now that Daoist Baili has taken a Primordial Unity Pill, advancing to the Primordial Unity Realm is just around the corner.
When that time comes, there will be no need to be afraid of the Supervising Immortal Envoy, "Daoist Huyan said with a smile.
Han Li smiled and said, "Then I wish Daoist Baili good luck in advancing to the Primordial Unity Realm as soon as possible."
"Daoist Baili is currently in seclusion to refine the Primordial Unity Pill. I'm afraid that he won't be able to come out and meet you.
However, he is very grateful for your help and is very interested in you.
If fate allows it, let's drink and chat together in the future, "Daoist Huyan said with a smile.
"Of course," Han Li said with a smile.
The three of them chatted for a while about the situation in the Northern Frost Celestial Realm and what might happen in the future. Then, they started to talk about their cultivation experiences.
The pot of Immortal Cloud Wine was quickly emptied. However, Daoist Huyan had an innumerable amount of fine wine on him. So, he immediately took out a new pot of wine.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting in the west, and the curtain of night had fallen.
The three of them chatted merrily. However, they still wished to continue. But, it was time to part ways.
"All good things must come to an end. It's getting late. We should leave now.
Young Li, I won't say much. Take care, "Daoist Huyan said as he stood up and put away the table and chair.
Yun Ni also bowed to Han Li.
"Both of you, take care," Han Li said with a nod.
Daoist Huyan laughed. His sleeves fluttered, and he waved his hand to emit a blazing red light. It enveloped Yun Ni beside him.
Soon after, the two of them rose into the sky amidst the lingering clouds and mist. Then, they flew toward the setting sun in the distance. They were like a ball of fire rushing toward the setting sun. They became smaller and smaller, but became brighter and brighter.
"I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
Pour it into the sea, and give it to the people of the world.
I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the traveler.
There are thirty million great Daos, and the true Dao of love is also deep.
Whistling in the wind, I climb the Kunlun Mountains with fluttering clothes.
The surging waves of the starry sky are vast, and the splendor of the heavenly gate is disdainful.
Looking back home, the mountains are far away, and the clouds are moving in disorder.
When I hear that the war has stopped, I give it to the people of the world... "
A melodious and sonorous song suddenly rang out. It was a man and a woman, and it echoed in the surroundings. The song gradually faded away, and along with the disappearance of the crimson figure, it also disappeared into the dusky horizon.
Han Li stood with his hands clasped behind his back, letting his robe flutter in the night wind. His gaze was fixed in the direction of the setting sun like a statue.
After a long while, he suddenly turned his head and waved his hand to summon the Jasper Flying Chariot. Then, he transformed into a ball of green light and shot toward another direction.
