"What's the matter?" Han Li asked with a frown.
"Just now, Fellow Sima sent a message from the Leng Yan Sect, saying … saying that Miss Liu was … taken away …" Daoist He Shan said with some hesitation.
"Make it clear, what's going on?" Han Li's face darkened slightly.
As soon as Daoist He Shan saw Han Li's unfriendly expression, he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain:
"In the evening, a woman in white suddenly broke through the restriction of the Spirit Flame Mountain Range, and went straight to Chuyun Peak to take away Miss Liu."
"That person just took away Le 'er so openly, did no one from the Leng Yan Sect stop it?" Han Li pondered for a moment, then continued to ask.
"Fellow Sima said that he tried to stop it, but as soon as he made a move, it was easily resolved by the woman, and the other party just casually waved her sleeve to send him flying, there was no way to stop it.
However, the woman didn't seem to have any intention of harming people, only saying that she was from the same clan as Miss Liu, and then left with Miss Liu. "Daoist He Shan bowed and answered.
"With a wave of her sleeve, she repelled Sima Jingming …" Han Li was startled, and fell silent.
"That's what Fellow Sima said.
Senior Han, do you need me to send a disciple to investigate the whereabouts of Miss Liu Le 'er, my temple is still very … "Daoist He Shan carefully proposed.
"As far as you know, in this world, is there anyone who can repel a Great Ascension stage cultivator with a wave of his hand?" Han Li glanced at the other party, interrupting what he wanted to say next.
"This … there shouldn't be." Daoist He Shan was slightly startled.
"Well, I know this matter, you can leave." Han Li heard this, and so said.
Daoist He Shan respectfully agreed, and flew away from the Condensing Star Platform.
Han Li watched Daoist He Shan leave, and was silent for a moment, then suddenly waved his hand, a layer of silver light appeared, covering the entire Condensing Star Platform.
… …
Early in the morning the next day.
Taoist He Shan's plump figure once again appeared in front of Nine Palace Peak. He bowed deeply in the direction of the Star Condensation Platform and said loudly,
"Junior He Shan greets Senior Han."
Actually, for the past three years, he would report here every day and report to Han Li about the various movements in the Spirit Huan World. Moreover, he would occasionally act as the Leng Yan Sect's mouthpiece, rain or shine, and never stopped.
In fact, most of the time, Han Li was cultivating in seclusion. He would respectfully report to Han Li and wait patiently at the side for about an hour. Then, he would respectfully bid farewell and leave. The whole process was respectful, without the slightest bit of impatience.
As a result, in the past thousand days, the disciples of the entire temple gradually discovered that this reclusive dacheng stage grand elder, who was rarely seen in a hundred years, could be seen from time to time. Although they could still only see him from a distance, it really made many low-ranking disciples excited.
Of course, almost all the Unity stage and some Void Training stage elders in the temple naturally more or less knew some inside information, but they very tacitly chose to keep their mouths shut, as if they didn't know about it.
Daoist He Shan's expression was respectful as he stood in the void three hundred feet away from Nine Palace Peak with his hands by his side. Looking at the Condensing Star Platform that was enveloped by the silver light screen, he was slightly puzzled.
In the past, when Han Li cultivated in seclusion, the surroundings would be filled with surging star power, and there would be some movement. Why was it so quiet today?
Although he was slightly puzzled, he didn't dare to rashly disturb Han Li. Perhaps Han Li was cultivating in another place. He obediently waited at the side, and after two hours, he once again left.
In the end, as time passed, he still came here every day, but found that there was not the slightest movement in the Condensing Star Platform.
In the blink of an eye, more than two months passed, and Daoist He Shan gradually became somewhat impatient.
On this day, he waited for a full half a day, and found that there was still not the slightest change in the Condensing Star Platform. The silver light screen around him flickered slightly.
Daoist He Shan took a deep breath and raised his voice, "Senior Han, I've found some more clues regarding the matter of Liu Le 'er. I wonder if you have the time now?"
There was not the slightest response from the light screen.
"Senior Han!" Daoist He Shan shouted again, but there was still no response from the light screen.
"Could it be …" His expression changed as he thought of something. With a wave of his hand, a ray of golden light struck the silver light screen.
Crack!
The silver light screen shattered, and the Condensing Star Platform inside was empty. There was no sign of Han Li.
However, there was a white jade slip at the center of the platform.
Daoist He Shan picked it up and probed it with his spiritual sense. The fat all over his body trembled incessantly, and his face revealed an excited expression.
The jade slip recorded the method to remove the restriction in his body.
"Many thanks, Senior Han!"
He withdrew his spiritual sense and looked towards the distant horizon. He didn't care if the other party could hear him or not, and bowed from afar.
… …
Spirit Flame Mountain Range.
In a large hall, Sima Jingming discussed with the Sect Master and a few Integration Stage Elders for a while before they left. Only Sima Jingming was left in the hall.
He let out a light breath, and his face looked slightly tired.
Ever since the Tengui School, the once number one sect in the Spirit Huan Domain, was burned to ashes overnight, the various forces had been fighting for the territory of the Tengui School for the past few years. As the only sect among the original three sects that had not suffered any damage, the Leng Yan Sect was especially busy.
He, a Mahayana Stage existence, did not have the time to cultivate in peace, and had to deal with various affairs all day long.
For a long period of time in the past, he basically only cared about cultivating in seclusion and rarely paid attention to the affairs of the sect. Now that he suddenly had to deal with the affairs of the sect, he was really not used to it.
Of course, part of the reason why he was like this was because the Realm Origin Temple, which he thought had suffered a great loss, not only did it not suffer any loss, it even gained many benefits from the incident at the Tengui School.
He naturally knew why it was like this, but he could not say it clearly.
However, the expansion of the power of the Leng Yan Sect, the Cold Flame Ancestor in the Celestial Realm was extremely happy, and had already given several rewards.
With these rewards, if he went into seclusion, his strength would be able to improve further.
If this continued, it would not be impossible for him to ascend to the Celestial Realm in the future.
Sima Jingming was secretly happy. He stood up and was about to walk towards the back of the hall.
"Fellow Sima." A familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Sima Jingming's expression suddenly changed.
A green light flashed, and a green-robed man appeared out of thin air in the hall. It was Han Li.
In his hand that was hidden in his sleeve, a flickering purple talisman shadow flashed.
Sima Jingming's pupils shrank when he saw who it was. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and a bright smile appeared on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "So it's Senior Han. I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're even more powerful than before. Congratulations."
"Fellow Sima is too polite." Han Li's tone was quite cold.
"Senior Han, please take a seat."
Sima Jingming's heart skipped a beat. He quickly invited Han Li to sit in the main seat, and he sat next to him.
"Han didn't come today for anything. I just heard that my sister Liu was taken away from the Leng Yan Sect. Is it true?" Han Li sat down and immediately said.
"It's … it's my fault. I let someone take Miss Liu away, but there's something else …" Sima Jingming said anxiously.
"About the person who took away Le 'er, do you have any clues? What did she say that day?" Han Li expressionlessly interrupted him.
"Senior, that person was a young and beautiful woman in white. She claimed to be from the same clan as Liu Le 'er. She asked me to tell Friend Han, thank you for taking care of Le' er.
As for this woman, I've definitely never seen her before. After that, I also sent out many disciples to investigate, but to no avail.
So, I have a private guess … "Sima Jingming hesitated towards the end.
"Tell me about it." Han Li raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I'm guessing that this woman is not from the Spirit Huan Domain. After all, she's extremely powerful. I couldn't even take one blow from her.
Moreover, this woman is a Perfected Immortal from the Upper Realm. "
"Perfected Immortal!"
Han Li already had some guesses in his heart. When he heard Sima Jingming say so, he was not surprised. He just frowned and pondered.
According to what he knew, the Cloud Fox Clan that Liu Le 'er belonged to was only a declining branch of the Demon Fox Clan. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been exterminated by the Blood Saber Clan. Why would a Perfected Immortal suddenly appear?
Could it be that one of her ancestors ascended to the Celestial Realm and coincidentally returned to the Spirit Huan Domain? Or perhaps, Liu Le 'er was hiding something from him …
"Since Fellow Sima has tried your best, Han naturally can't blame you.
Fortunately, that person is from the same clan as Le 'er. He shouldn't harm her. "Han Li thought and sighed.
Sima Jingming secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Han Li didn't get angry. Only then did he realize that his back was covered in cold sweat.
"Oh right, Han came here because I have something to ask Fellow Sima." Han Li was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
"I don't dare, I don't dare!
Senior Han, please speak. I will definitely tell you everything I know. "Sima Jingming hurriedly said.
"I wonder if your sect's Fellow Leng Yan told you about ascending to the Celestial Realm?
Is there any taboo in ascending to the Celestial Realm from the Spirit Huan Domain? "Han Li didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly.
Sima Jingming was shocked. After taking a deep breath, he answered respectfully, "Senior Han is a Strength Cultivator.
Once you cultivate the True Extreme Body, your physical body will be rejected by the power of this world. If you want to ascend, you must break through the void. "
"I see."
Han Li nodded in realization. No wonder the closer he got to completion of the Little Big Dipper Origin Skill, the more he felt an indescribable invisible force suppressing him. It even affected his ability to cast spells and fly.
"The Spirit Huan Domain is close to the Northern Frost Celestial Realm. So if you ascend to the Celestial Realm from here, you will be randomly picked up by an Immortal Platform in the Northern Frost Celestial Realm.
On the contrary, because the spiritual energy in the Lower Realm is thin, those who are able to ascend successfully all possess extremely high natural talent and a firm disposition. Thus, they are generally valued in the Immortal Dimension. "Sima Jingming didn't conceal anything and spoke of everything he knew.
Hearing this, Han Li's expression didn't change at all, but his mind was filled with thoughts.
