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

Chapter 519: Arrangements



Chapter 519: Arrangements

Han Li took a deep breath, then turned his gaze to the final silken handkerchief, which he drew into his grasp.

According to the vision that he experienced, this handkerchief carried a treasure map.

Back when he first experienced the vision, he had already briefly examined the handkerchief and noticed that it was no ordinary object.

With that in mind, he quickly summoned his Mantra Treasured Axis, then gazed upon the silken handkerchief through his Eye of Truth.

A burst of rainbow light rippled over the silken handkerchief, and it spread outward from the center like a blot of ink, revealing a complex map.

Han Li's eyes narrowed slightly as he carefully examined the map, following which his brows furrowed slightly.

The map didn't appear to be very complete. Instead, it seemed to be a portion of a complete map, and with the limited information that the map presented, he was unable to determine what location it depicted.

All of a sudden, Han Li's gaze fell upon a corner of the handkerchief, where there was a symbol of a round wheel, one that he had never seen before.

Moments later, he flipped a hand over to stow the silken handkerchief away.

According to the memories of that nascent soul, this map depicted an area in another immortal region, and following the passage of so many years, it was unclear whether the area depicted on the map still even existed, so there was no point in pondering the matter.

With that in mind, he swept a sleeve through the air, releasing a burst of azure light to stow everything else away, then withdrew the surrounding azure light barrier.

After that, Han Li didn't linger here any longer, flying away toward Dark Veil Island as a streak of azure light.

Shortly thereafter, Han Li appeared in the sky above Dark Veil Island.

The island was still in a state of lockdown, and all of the members of the Luo Clan were cultivating in seclusion, while the mortals on the island led secure and peaceful lives. The island was very serene and peaceful, seemingly completely untouched by the conflicts that had ravaged the Black Wind Sea of late.

Han Li flew down from above before landing near a village that was surrounded by mountains on three sides.

At this moment, it was dusk, and plumes of smoke from cooking fires were rising up all over the village, forming a thin veil of smoke in the sky, which presented a dreamy and beautiful sight under the light of the dying sun.

The village was like a paradise from another world, completely free from the conflicts and troubles of this realm.

Han Li could hear the sound of livestock and playing children in the village, and an emotion that was rather difficult to identify welled up in his heart. Distant memories of his childhood began to surface in his mind, and he felt himself becoming immersed in these memories.

He quickly snapped back to his senses as a hint of bewilderment flashed through his eyes.

He had witnessed similar scenes on many past occasions without feeling anything, yet why was it that he was suddenly overcome with such strong emotions? Could it be that something had gone wrong with his cultivation?

With that in mind, Han Li hurriedly inspected his own internal condition, but there was nothing amiss.

His brows furrowed ever so slightly upon seeing this, but then quickly unfurrowed again.

The momentary immersion that he had experienced hadn't been detrimental to him at all. Instead, it had instilled within him a profound sense of relaxation.

He gently exhaled as he shook his head.

Perhaps it was because he had been wound up too tightly throughout the foray into the Infernal Frost Immortal Manor, and now that he was witnessing such a serene and tranquil scene for the first time in such a long time, he was finally able to relax.

It seemed that it would perhaps be a good idea to visit the mortal world every once in a while as that seemed to have profound benefits on his mental cultivation.

Of course, this wasn't the time to do so. He knew that immense turmoil was going to be sweeping through the Northern Glacial Immortal Region in the near future, and that was most likely going to be followed by an extended period of chaos.

After taking one final glance at the village, Han Li quickly looked away, then flew away into the distance.

Moments later, he arrived in the Luo Clan, then descended silently in front of a large hall.

There was a layer of azure light that was gently swirling like a cloud over the gate of the hall, and it was clearly quite a profound restriction.

Of course, this restriction was nothing more than child's play in Han Li's eyes, and he flew through gates of the hall in a flash, while the azure restriction remained completely oblivious.

At the center of the hall sat Luo Feng atop a cushion with azure light swirling around his body.

Han Li appaered in front of Luo Feng in a stealthy manner, then gave a slight nod of approval as he observed Luo Feng's cultivation.

Luo Feng possessed decent aptitude, and he had made some progress in his cultivation since they last met, indicating that he had been working hard this entire time.

With that in mind, a burst of crimson light flashed over Han Li's body, and he reverted back to his original appearance.

Luo Feng seemed to have detected something, and he opened his eyes, upon which he hurriedly rose to his feet after spotting Han Li.

"Master Liu Shi!" Luo Feng greeted with a respectful salute.

"I came here today because I have some things to speak to you about," Han Li declared.

"Please go ahead," Luo Feng hurriedly prompted.

"I'm going to be leaving Dark Veil Island for some time soon. In my absence, continue to oversee the island as normal," Han Li instructed.

Luo Feng was very much taken aback to hear this, and he hurriedly asked, "How long will you be away for?"

Han Li had no concrete answer to this question, so he replied in a truthful manner, "I can't say for sure, but it'll most likely be a very long time."

Luo Feng's face instantly paled significantly upon hearing this, and he hurriedly said, "Right now, the conflict between Black Wind Island and Azure Feather Island is still ongoing. Our Dark Veil Island hasn't been swept up in it for now, but it's only a matter of time. Without your presence, there's no way we'll be able to withstand that ordeal on our own, and the allegiance of those itinerant immortals will most likely begin wavering again.

“If you're not receiving sufficient power of faith to satisfy you, then I can instruct the mortals on the island to be even more earnest in their worship..."

Han Li raised a hand to cut Luo Feng off, then said, "There's no need to be concerned. Right now, the conflict in the Black Wind Sea is beginning to die down, and the animosity between Black Wind Island and Azure Feather Island has also largely subsided. On top of that, even though I'm leaving, my avatar will still remain on the island, and it possesses sufficient power to keep those itinerant immortals in check so that they remain loyal to Dark Veil Island."

"Really?" Luo Feng asked in a slightly uneasy fashion, and it was unclear whether he was asking about the conflict between Black Wind Island and Azure Feather Island or about Han Li's Earthly Deity Avatar.

"Of course, so you can rest assured. Dark Veil Island is quite an important place to me, so there's no way I'll abandon it," Han Li assured.

Luo Feng was slightly reassured upon hearing this, and he immediately made a display of loyalty. "Thank you, Master Liu Shi. Rest assured, our Luo Clan will be your most loyal servants for all of eternity!" contemporary romance

A faint smile appeared on Han Li's face as he flipped a hand over to produce a storage tool, which he handed to Luo Feng as he said, "There are some cultivation resources in here for you to use."

Luo Feng accepted the storage tool, and as soon as he injected his spiritual sense into it, he was instantly rooted to the spot.

There was an enormous array of spirit materials, pills, and spirit treasures within the storage tool, alongside countless spirit stones, and it was more than 1,000 times the Luo Clan's current wealth.

Such a vast volume of resources had been unimaginable to Luo Feng in the past, yet it had suddenly fallen onto his lap, and he couldn't help but feel stunned beyond belief.

"You can use these resources however you please, but don't use them without discretion. Make sure to nurture the brightest talents in your clan and the most prodigious cultivators on the island. Only by constantly bolstering the island's power will it be able to truly stand firm in the Black Wind Sea, understood?" Han Li instructed.

Given his current astronomical wealth, the resources that he had just given to Luo Feng were barely worth anything to him.

Luo Feng immediately snapped back to his senses upon hearing this, and he hurriedly replied in an excited manner, "I understand! Rest assured, Master Liu Shi, I'll be sure to put these resources to good use!"

With these resources at his disposal, he would definitely be able to develop a batch of high-grade cultivators in a short time, and a few of the elders on the island who were at the pinnacle of the Body Integration Stage would also have a chance of reaching the Grand Ascension Stage.

With a few more Grand Ascension cultivators on the island and the Earthly Deity Avatar leading the way, Luo Feng was confident that he would be able to protect Dark Veil Island.

However, at the same time, he was also rather perplexed. Such a vast volume of resources was something that not even Black Wind Island was guaranteed to be able to muster up all at once, so where had Liu Shi gotten all of this from?

"Good. I leave Dark Veil Island in your hands," Han Li said, then departed from the hall, vanishing into thin air in the blink of an eye.

"You can count on me, Master Liu Shi!" Luo Feng declared loudly.

Shortly thereafter, Han Li appeared in the sky above Dark Veil Island, then flew away from the island to arrive at the location where his Earthly Deity Avatar was in seclusion.

On the surface of the sea was a huge vortex that was swirling and rumbling incessantly, and it was much more formidable than before.

A hint of elation appeared on Han Li's face upon seeing this, and he plunged down into the sea, quickly arriving beside his Earthly Deity Avatar.

The Earthly Deity Avatar was seated with its legs crossed, and there was a huge cocoon of blue light around it, while a thin blue thread was hovering above its head, giving off a burst of formidable water law fluctuations.

Upon sensing Han Li's arrival, the Earthly Deity Avatar ceased in its cultivation before rising to its feet.

"You've made some good progress," Han Li remarked with a nod of approval at the sight of the blue thread above the Earthly Deity Avatar's head.

"Dark Veil Island and the other islands have been developing nicely over the years, and the populations on all of the islands have increased drastically. As a result, there are more worshipers, and therefore more power of faith directed to me, so I've been able to manifest law powers far faster than before," the Dark Veil Island explained.

"Good. At this rate, it won't take long until you fully recover your law powers," Han li said.

Prior to this, Han Li had injected the Earthly Deity Avatar's water law thread into his Heavy Water True Axis, and he had been concerned that this would cause irreparable damage to the avatar's water law powers, but it seemed that his concerns were unnecessary.

With a sweep of his sleeve, Han Li summoned a small blue flag and three blue flying swords, the latter of which appeared to form a set. On top of that, there was also a light blue storage ring.

"These two are both water-attribute immortal treasures, one for defense and one for offense, while this storage ring holds some things that should be useful to you, as well as some vessels to store heavy water. Take these things and protect the island while I'm away," Han Li instructed.

Dark Veil Island was the first place that he had arrived at during his second ascension to the Immortal Realm, so in some sense, this was his hometown in the Immortal Realm. Even though he had only become the ancestral god here by accident, the people here trusted him deeply and revered him as their deity, so he felt obligated to keep them safe.

The Earthly Deity Avatar accepted these items with a nod, and Han Li issued a few more instructions to it before departing.

Standing high up in the sky, Han Li heaved an internal sigh as he looked down at Dark Veil Island from above.

Following this departure, he didn't know when he would be back again.

He shook his head to rid himself of that train of thought, then flew away into the distance as a streak of azure light, vanishing into the distant sky in the blink of an eye.
