A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Chapter 838: Physical Transmigration

It didn't take long for Han Li and the others to return to Shi Pokong's manor, and after emerging from their carriages, Xue Cheng promptly departed, while Shi Chuankong gestured for Han Li to follow him and Shi Pokong into a conference hall.

"I don't understand what Father is thinking! Why didn't he allow us to reveal the truth about the attacks that I had to endure on the way back? Zhanfeng and Jingyan need to be exposed for the backstabbing scoundrels that they are!" Shi Chuankong grumbled in frustration.

"Father most likely didn't want others to know about the extent of the infighting among us siblings, and at the same time, he gave you a huge reward as compensation. Having said that, I certainly didn't expect him to grant you the Heavenly Rainbow Region," Shi Pokong said.

"That's true. With the Heavenly Rainbow Region in our grasp, we're in a far more advantageous position than before. Given enough time, I'm confident that we can surpass Zhanfeng and the others," Shi Chuankong said with a smile as he sat down onto a chair, then invited Han Li to sit down beside him.

Some servants of the manor had just brought in some cups of spirit tea, and Shi Pokong took a sip of his tea, then cautioned, "Don't celebrate just yet. You're going to attract a lot of envy from our brothers and sisters now that you've been granted the Heavenly Rainbow Region, so you have to be extra careful from now on."

"Don't worry, Pokong. I'm a High Zenith cultivator now, so they won't just be able to step all over me as they please. If they dare to come after me, then I'll make sure they pay the price. Besides, I still have you, don't I?" Shi Chuankong replied in a nonchalant manner.

"That may be true, but you can never be too careful. By the way, please be patient in the matter regarding the grand priest, Fellow Daoist Li. Feel free to use the Purple Sun Warm Jade given to you by Zhanfeng, and I'll send out more people to gather some more Purple Sun Warm Jade for you," Shi Pokong said.

"Thank you, Your Highness," Han Li replied.

This was the first time that he had spoken after entering the conference hall, and the cup of spirit tea beside him had remained untouched this entire time.

"Zhanfeng's response today doesn't really come as a surprise at all. However, even if he wants to delay things, he wouldn't dare to blatantly ignore Father's orders. Even so, it looks like you'll have to stay in Night Sun City for a while longer, but rest assured, Pokong and I will continue to try and find ways to treat Fellow Daoist Weeping Soul's condition," Shi Chuankong said in an apologetic manner.

"In that case, I'll be in your care for a while longer. I'm sure the two of you still have some things to discuss, and I have some matters to take care of too, so I'll be taking my leave now," Han Li said as he cupped his fist in a parting salute.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, Fellow Daoist Li, I still have to speak to you about the Heavenly Rainbow Region!" Shi Chuankong called out.

"I don't know much about the Holy Realm at all, so I'll leave it to His Highness to offer you counsel on this matter. Of course, if you require my assistance with anything, I'll be happy to help," Han Li said.

"Don't keep Fellow Daoist Li any longer. Now that he's gotten some Purple Sun Warm Jade from Zhanfeng, he must be in a hurry to get back to Fellow Daoist Weeping Soul," Shi Pokong said with a smile.

"Alright, in that case, you can attend to Fellow Daoist Weeping Soul first, and I'll go find you after you're done," Shi Chuankong said.

Han Li gave the two a nod, then departed from the hall.

Upon returning to the Long Garden Pavilion, he activated all of the restrictions, then paid Weeping Soul a visit in the Flower Branch Space before returning to his secret chamber.

The delay naturally wasn't ideal, but thankfully, he had secured some Purple Sun Warm Jade, so at the very least, Weeping Soul would be fine for the next century or so.

With that in mind, Han Li commenced his cultivation.

One night, over ten years later.

The entire secret chamber was filled with radiant golden light, and Han Li was seated with his eyes tightly shut, making a rapid string of hand seals while trembling uncontrollably.

The Mantra Treasured Axis was hovering behind him, revolving incessantly while releasing rays of golden light. To his left was the Clear Time Vial, which was also giving off golden ripple, while to his right was an hourglass formed by flowing sand, within which particles of golden sand were swirling like a miniature sandstorm.

In front of the left side of his chest was a torch that had been lit with Time Severing Flowing Fire, while to its right was a lush and vibrant golden tree that was slowly taking shape under the rays of golden light.

Right at this moment, Han Li's eyes sprang open, and he brought his palms together in one swift motion.

Immediately thereafter, all of the Time Dao Runes on the Mantra Treasured Axis, the Clear Time Vial, the Time Severing Torch, and the Illusory Dawn Hourglass lit up, releasing bursts of formidable time law power fluctuations.

Several seconds later, the small golden tree completely took shape, and all of the time law power in the room converged toward it, manifesting a series of Time Dao Runes on its surface.

The pained look on Han Li's face was immediately eased, and he exhaled as a faint smile appeared on his face.

After cultivating diligently for over ten years, he had finally manifested an Eastern Vicissitudes Divine Tree.

Up to this point, he had finally reached the third level of the Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra.

Han Li carefully sensed the time law powers flowing through the air around him, and it was as if he had entered a fully immersive state. Even without counting, he knew that there were currently 720 Time Dao Runes flashing on his Mantra Treasured Axis, while his Clear Time Vial had 360 Time Dao Runes on its surface.

The Time Severing Torch and the Illusory Dawn Hourglass each had 180 Time Dao Runes, while more and more Time Dao Runes were continuing to appear on the Eastern Vicissitudes Divine Tree that had just been manifested.

Right at this moment, forty-five time law threads flew out of the Mantra Treasured Axis and all of the other time-attribute artifacts, then began to swirl around Han Li.

The time law threads then linked up with one another to form a golden circle that revolved incessantly around Han Li, absorbing the surrounding time law powers while slowly shrinking toward the center.

At the same time, the five time-attribute artifacts released five bursts of time law powers that converged in unison before surging into the golden circle, transforming it into a giant golden ring.

A flurry of Time Dao Runes flew out of the time-attribute artifacts before falling upon the golden ring, and it immediately began trembling incessantly while emitting a sharp ringing sound.

At the same time, bursts of formidable time law power fluctuations swept through the surrounding area, threatening to overwhelm all of the restrictions in the room.

Right at this moment, Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he murmured to himself, "Is it coming again?"

As soon as his voice trailed off, a ball of azure light instantly shot out of the front of his robes, and it contained none other than the Heaven Controlling Vial.

The vial was glowing as radiantly as a green sun, and it was giving off a burst of tremendous suction force.

The golden ring immediately flew high up into the air, then rapidly shrank down to the same size as the mouth of the Heaven Controlling Vial before the two came together to release a burst of immense time law powers.

The Heaven Controlling Vial instantly swelled rapidly in size, while countless green runes emerged within it, forming a green cloud that was swirling incessantly.

Tremendous time law power fluctuations surged out of the green cloud, causing the nearby space to tremble and ripple incessantly.

Immediately thereafter, the green cloud within the vial abruptly brightened, then shot out of the vial as a thick pillar of green light before vanishing into the space up ahead.

The space was torn apart, and countless rays of translucent light surged forth to form that familiar translucent wall of light.

Right at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in Han Li's mind.

"You've been progressing faster than I expected..."

Han Li immediately turned to the Heaven Controlling Vial with a bewildered expression, and sure enough, a pair of tiny black eyes had appeared on its surface and were looking directly at him.

Han Li wanted to communicate with the vial through their spiritual connection, but it was as if there were an invisible wall between them, thwarting his attempts at communicating with what appeared to be the vial spirit.

Before he had a chance to do anything, the translucent wall of light began to glow radiantly, and an enormous vortex appeared, releasing a burst of tremendous suction force that quickly inundated his entire body.

By the time he returned to his senses, he was greeted by the sight of a barren plain.

There was an enormous river flowing from the ends of the heavens on the distant horizon. The river stretched as far as the eyes could see in both directions, and it contained countless balls of light.

The river appeared to be flowing rapidly, flowing slowly, and not flowing at all, all at the same time, presenting a very strange sight to behold.

Han Li had witnessed this river in the past, but he still couldn't help but be amazed by what he saw. Right as he was about to fly toward the river, he suddenly seemed to have sensed something, and his expression changed drastically as he hurriedly looked down at his own body, only to find that he was present in his physical form, rather than a spiritual one.

He shook his head from side to side, then pressed a hand against his own cheek, and he was able to confirm that this wasn't an illusion, which meant that his physical body had been sucked into the vortex along with his soul!
