Chapter 1022

"This should be an unopened underwater mansion, right?" After a long while, Han Li suddenly pointed to an area at the bottom of the map and asked.

"Yes, it is indeed here.

But forgive me for speaking bluntly, if you like this place, I advise you not to try. It's meaningless. "The round-faced old man glanced at Han Li and waved his hand with a smile.

"Why is that?" Han Li asked curiously.

"Don't blame me, I don't want to see you draw water with a wicker basket, so I kindly reminded you.

Not to mention True Immortal cultivators, even late Golden Immortal cultivators have come to this underwater mansion several times, wanting to try to open it.

And guess what happened?

Just the restriction on the door alone blocked everyone. There were two unlucky people who tried to break the restriction by force, and as a result, they triggered the power of the restriction. One was seriously injured, and the other even lost his life in vain. Even his Nascent Soul couldn't escape. "The round-faced old man shook his head and sighed.

"So that's how it is. Thank you for your reminder.

I have some rough knowledge of restriction arrays, and I'm confident that even if I can't open the mansion, I can still protect myself. So rest assured, I'll choose this place. "Han Li showed a look of realization and immediately said.

"This … then I wish you success. After you pay the fee, I'll send someone to take you there." Seeing this, the round-faced old man no longer continued to persuade him and said.

After all, in his opinion, he represented the position of the sect and had already fulfilled the obligation to inform. As for the choice of the tenant, he didn't care. If he said too much, it would make people suspect that he had ulterior motives, which would be bad.

After waiting for Han Li to pay the fee, the round-faced old man no longer greeted him. He only sent a young girl with red lips and white teeth to take Han Li to the Sanjiang Lake.

The young girl wasn't very beautiful, but there were two shallow dimples on her round face. It seemed that she was always smiling, making people feel very close to her at first glance.

Han Li and the young girl flew down the Shupi Mountain and walked along a lakeside path towards the lakeside.

"I don't think you are a stubborn person. Why did you choose this Gui Chou Manor?"

The young lady seemed to have a cheerful personality and couldn't hide her words. She led the way and couldn't help but ask.

"Gui Chou Manor?

Han Li frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that? Please enlighten me."

"The reason the esteemed guest chose this underwater palace is because ever since this underwater palace was revealed to the public, no one has been able to open it. Instead, many people have been injured because of it, and some even lost their lives in vain. It's simply a case of 'Ghost's Sorrow'!

Therefore, we secretly gave it the name 'Gui Chou Manor'.

That's right, this is not its official name. If you can open it, you can give it a more auspicious and festive name, "the young girl explained with a slightly teasing tone.

"Oh, 'Ghost Worry Manor' sounds good. Let's call it that," Han Li said seriously after thinking for a while.

"This … I don't want to say too much, but about naming it, let's wait until the esteemed guest really opens the underwater palace.

Sigh … if the esteemed guest is willing to listen to my advice, when you go down to the bottom of the lake, don't force yourself. If you can't handle the counterforce of the restriction, then quickly let go and come back. Don't force yourself. "The young girl seemed to have thought of something and advised.

"That's right, what's your name?" Han Li glanced at the young girl and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, the young girl was slightly stunned. It seemed that after so many years, all the esteemed guests she had met had only regarded him as a little servant who led the way. No one had ever asked for her name.

"My name is Hu Xiao Cheng." After a slight hesitation, the young girl said with some embarrassment.

Han Li thoughtfully nodded his head and slowly said, "Small Success … Small Success, Contented with Small Wealth. This is a good name for a stable life."

After saying this, he became silent. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He thought of another name, Ye Susu.

At the end of last month, he had heard a piece of news from some sources.

It was said that half a year ago, Qing Hu City was suddenly attacked by a natural disaster. The entire city was burned to the ground, and all the people and animals in the city were killed. No one survived.

After hearing this, he thought about it and calculated the time. Naturally, he understood what had happened. That was why he had come to the Three Rivers World today.

Seeing that Han Li's expression was strange, the young girl didn't say anything more. She just silently led the way.

After arriving at a lakeside plaza by the Three River Lake, a cool breeze blew over from the surface of the lake, making the young girl named Hu Xiao Cheng feel very comfortable. She couldn't help but stretch and take a deep breath.

Han Li looked at the sparkling surface of the lake and also felt a sense of relaxation and happiness that he hadn't felt in a long time. The haze that had been lingering in his heart for the past few days seemed to have faded a little.

"Esteemed guest, we're here.

Go down from the water in front of us, and you'll be able to reach the Ghost Worry Manor. "After stretching, Hu Xiao Cheng turned to look at Han Li and said.

"Thank you.

Please wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon. "Han Li nodded and said.

After saying this, he didn't wait for Hu Xiao Cheng to reply. His figure flashed and he dove into the water.

"Xiao …"

As a result, before Hu Xiaocheng could say anything else, Han Li had already disappeared without a trace.

She pursed her lips helplessly and mumbled in a low voice, "Why are you so impatient? I haven't even told you what I should pay attention to yet. However, the sentence 'I'll be back soon' does sound like a great master.

At this point, she couldn't continue. After all, this was the Ghost Worry Manor that even Golden Immortals had to retreat. This esteemed guest looked ordinary, so his cultivation was probably not high. At most, he was at the Late-stage of True Immortal.

How could he open this underwater manor? It was simply a fool's dream!

"I can only hope that he knows how to retreat and return safely."

Just as Hu Xiao Cheng said this faintly, the lake in front of her suddenly burst into a wave, and a figure landed beside her.

When the girl rubbed her eyes and saw that the person beside her was Han Li, she was slightly stunned at first, but then she smiled and said,

"You're back so soon?

I thought you would at least try for a few hours before giving up. But that's good. At least you weren't trapped by the restriction. You're really lucky. "

"Little girl, you're still young, but your heart is full of twists and turns.

Quickly go and call your elder. Tell him that I want to pay the opening fee. "Han Li raised his hand and pointed at Hu Xiao Cheng's forehead as he said with a smile.

"What … You mean you've already …" Hu Xiao Cheng's eyes widened as he said in disbelief.

"Go quickly," Han Li said with a noncommittal smile.

Hu Xiao Cheng shook his head as he turned around and flew toward the Comb Mountain.

Not long after, the round-faced elder, who also had a bewildered expression, flew back to the lake with Hu Xiao Cheng.

After he personally entered the water to investigate, he finally believed that Han Li had truly broken through the restriction of this underwater manor. His face was immediately filled with disbelief, but the truth was right in front of him. He had no choice but to believe it. Although he didn't show it on his face, his heart was naturally in turmoil.

After Han Li paid a sum of Immortal Origin Stones, the round-faced elder said with a face full of joy, "This underwater manor belongs to Friend Han for the next three years.

As I said before, all the treasures produced here will belong to Friend Han as long as they don't affect the continued existence of the underwater manor. "

As I said before, all the treasures produced here will belong to Fellow Daoist as long as they don't affect the survival of the underwater mansion. "

The round-faced elder nodded and said, "That's right. Once this underwater manor is opened, I hope Friend Han will give it a name."

The round-faced elder nodded and said, "That's right. When this underwater manor is opened, I hope Friend Han will give it a name."

Han Li glanced at the girl and said, "Let's call it Ghost Worry Manor."

The round-faced elder heard this and didn't say anything else. He nodded and was about to leave.

"Xiao Cheng, you will temporarily follow Friend Han and serve him. If you have any needs, quickly report to the sect." Before leaving, he instructed the girl.

"Understood." Hu Xiao Cheng quickly saluted and said.

Han Li didn't refuse and only nodded slightly.

"How about it? Do you want to take a look at this Ghost Worry Manor?" After the round-faced elder left, Han Li said to Hu Xiao Cheng.

The latter heard this and nodded heavily.

Han Li raised his hand and grabbed Hu Xiao Cheng's shoulder. Both of them were covered in a layer of green light at the same time. With a leap, they fell into the lake.

At the top of the lake, there was still sunlight shining in. The deeper they went, the darker it became.

Hu Xiao Cheng had previously led the way to other underwater mansions, but he had never gone as deep as he did today. Along the way, he opened his eyes wide and looked around.

In the lake, there were broken mountain peaks everywhere. Some still maintained their original shape, while others had been broken into pieces and turned into low earth mounds.

On these mountain peaks, there were scattered balls of light. Looking carefully, one could see that there were light curtains of various colors. What was covered inside were the underwater mansions that had already been opened up.

Most of these underwater mansions were extremely far from here. They looked like stars in the night sky.

Han Li led Hu Xiao Cheng all the way to the bottom of the water and came to a small hill that seemed to be only a few dozen feet high.

Hu Xiao Cheng looked over and saw that the top of the small hill was shrouded in a layer of light curtain. Inside, they could vaguely see a long and narrow courtyard built against the hill.

Han Li pulled her arm and with a leap, they suddenly broke through the waves and rushed into the layer of light curtain.

As soon as they entered the light curtain, the feeling of being surrounded by the lake water suddenly disappeared.

After the two of them landed on a square in front of the courtyard, Han Li immediately removed the light curtain that enveloped them.

"Founder's Hall … this is actually that sect's Founder's Hall?" Hu Xiao Cheng looked at the inscribed board on the courtyard's door and cried out in surprise.

"Otherwise why do you think, after so many years, no one was able to break the restrictions here?" Han Li smiled and said.

"Since it's like this, how did you break the restrictions here?" Hu Xiao Cheng asked without hesitation.

"I read a lot of books." Han Li replied with a smile.

This sect's Founder's Hall's protective formation, he had really seen it in ancient books. Moreover it was after all not a Mountain Protecting Great Formation. In addition, he already knew some methods to break restrictions, so naturally it didn't take much effort to break it.

"Then this time you have really struck it rich!

It is said that in the sect's Founder's Hall, there are usually sect's secret manuals and important weapons … "Hu Xiao Cheng said with a face of envy.
