Chapter 1220

"Senior, please ask away. I will definitely tell you everything I know," the grey-robed old man said hurriedly.

"Where did you get this Yama's Cauldron?" Han Li asked in a deep voice.

"Senior, I obtained this cauldron from a ruin in the Heavenly Slayer Immortal Domain," the grey-robed old man answered respectfully.

"Heavenly Slayer Immortal Domain?"

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this. Based on his knowledge of the many immortal realms in the True Immortal Realm, he had never heard of this one.

"It's a small Immortal Domain with thin spiritual energy and few resources. The Heavenly Court has abandoned it and did not set up an inter-domain teleportation array there, so few people know about it.

I was chased by my enemies and was swallowed by a spatial rift in a panic. That's how I arrived there, "the grey-robed old man explained.

"Oh, you're quite frank," Han Li said, glancing at the grey-robed old man.

"Senior, I dare not lie," the grey-robed old man said with his eyes lowered.

"I saw the name 'Yama's Residence' in the inscriptions on the cauldron. Do you know that place?" Han Li narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

He had paid attention to the grey-robed old man and the others. He had even used his Yuan Qi to forcefully seize control of the Yama's Cauldron with the 'Truth Conversion Technique' because of the words' Yama's Residence 'on the cauldron.

Ever since he had traveled through time and space to return, he had been searching everywhere for information about the Yama's Residence. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he could not find any information about it.

He had finally found a clue today, so how could he give it up?

"Yama's Residence?

I've never heard of that name. Perhaps it's somewhere in the Heavenly Slayer Immortal Domain. It's said that it's close to the Nine Hells, and there are many places with the word 'Yama' in their names, "the grey-robed old man said.

Han Li's brows furrowed upon hearing this as he turned to the Weeping Soul Beast.

The Weeping Soul nodded slightly.

"You've answered honestly, so I'll keep my promise and spare your life for now.

Stay here for now. Bring me to the Heavenly Slayer Immortal Domain in a few days, and I'll let you go then, "Han Li said.

"Thank you, Senior." The grey-robed old man was overjoyed when he heard this. He hurriedly agreed.

Han Li waved his hand, and the grey-robed old man's vision went black. He immediately fainted and fell to the ground.

He paid no more attention to this person and looked at other places in the dark red space. Finally, his gaze fell on the six stone tablets around the square.

"These stone steles are rather extraordinary, and the Laws contained within them are very strange as well. They're actually capable of reviving the dead. I wonder what sort of Laws they possess?" The Weeping Soul's beautiful eyes flickered, and she seemed to be extremely interested in these stone steles.

"Although there are three thousand grand Daos, there are countless laws in this world. How can we possibly exhaust them all?

Previously, you said that one of Sun Zhongshan's group is very interesting. Are you referring to Sun Zhongshan? "Han Li first sighed, then changed the topic.

"No, I'm talking about this woman." The Weeping Soul Beast pointed at the red-dressed young woman standing off to the side.

Han Li looked in the direction of the Weeping Soul Hand and was slightly startled.

"Her soul is different from a normal person's. It contains a strange aura of death. I now know that it's because of these six stone tablets." The Weeping Soul Beast continued.

"This treasure's attribute is inclined towards Yin, and it's not suitable for me. I'll hand it over to you.

Since you're interested in this place, study it properly. At the same time, keep an eye on this Sun Zhongshan. "

Han Li wasn't interested in what the Weeping Soul Beast said. He waved his hand, and a ball of dark red light fused into the Weeping Soul Beast's body.

"Thank you for the treasure, Master." The Weeping Soul Beast was overjoyed, and it hurriedly bowed to express its gratitude.

Han Li didn't stay here for long. His figure flashed, and he directly returned to his residence. He didn't meet Yu Menghan again.

The Weeping Soul Beast quickly returned to her residence. She didn't enter the flower space again. Instead, she sat down cross-legged near Han Li and studied the Yama Cauldron in her hand.

The golden gale outside the window was still raging, but the Sun Moon Divine Boat had already survived the most difficult period, and its speed gradually increased.

About half a month later, the Sun Moon Divine Boat finally survived the golden gale disaster, and its speed returned to its original level. It continued to move towards Jiuyuan City.

Ten years passed very quickly, and the Sun Moon Divine Boat finally arrived at Jiuyuan City.

Han Li stood in front of the window and looked at the huge city in front of him. Even though he had seen many majestic cities and regions, he was still quite shocked in his heart.

The first impression that Jiuyuan City gave people was that it was tall. The towering city walls were tens of thousands of meters tall, and they weren't inferior to some of the nearby mountains. The city walls were like a natural moat, and the entire city was like an incomparably tall beast entrenched on the ground.

The second impression that Jiuyuan City gave people was that it was vast and boundless. Even he couldn't see the end of the city. The tall city walls extended continuously, and several nearby mountain ranges were also enveloped in it.

There were countless streets in the city, and the people were shuttling back and forth. The city was even denser than the clouds, and it was an incomparably bustling scene.

Han Li took a deep breath, retracted his gaze, and sat down cross-legged.

The Sun Moon Divine Boat flew down from the sky and landed in the city.

An hour later, he walked out of a tall tower in the city, mixed into the crowd on the streets, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Among the crowd that walked out of the tall tower, a nun in white walked out quickly. It was Yu Menghan.

She looked around as if she was looking for someone, but she couldn't find him. She couldn't help but reveal a disappointed look on her face. She stood where she was for a moment, and then walked away.

Han Li blended into the crowd on the streets and walked forward quickly.

Although it was his first time in Jiuyuan City, he walked as if he was flying, and he didn't hesitate at all.

Jiao San had already told him some of the situation in Jiuyuan City in advance, and the most important location of the place to stay.

On both sides of the street, there were many tall shops selling all kinds of goods, celestial weapons, elixirs, materials, and so on. There was everything that one could think of, and it seemed to have everything one could think of. It seemed to be a little better than the Gold City.

Moreover, the city was very lively, as if it was preparing for some kind of festival. Many shops were decorating.

Han Li's eyes flashed, but he didn't stop to investigate. He continued to walk forward quickly.

This was already the territory of the Jiuyuan Temple, and although he didn't feel like he was being investigated, who knew how many spies were monitoring the entire city.

According to the information obtained from Jiao San, the place to stay was the safest. Apart from that place, one had to be extremely careful everywhere else.

After half a day, Han Li came to a small alley at the edge of Jiuyuan City. There was a small inn in the alley, but the door was tightly shut.

He carefully looked at the front door of the inn, and he especially looked at the stone lion at the entrance. A smile flashed in his eyes, and he walked forward and knocked on the door rhythmically.

"Who is it?" a lazy voice came from inside, but the door didn't open.

"Boss, is there any empty room in the inn? I would like to stay here for the night," said Han Li. As he spoke, he was still knocking on the door rhythmically.

There was a moment of silence, and the door slowly opened until Han Li stopped knocking.

"You want to stay here?" a young man in a short-sleeved shirt, about 16 or 17 years old, poked his head out, and looked at Han Li from head to toe.

"Yes, I came to Jiuyuan City to do some small business, and I need to stay here for half a year," said Han Li.

"Oh, then please come in."

The young man in the short-sleeved shirt's eyes brightened, and he stepped aside to let Han Li in. Then, he immediately closed the door.

Han Li's eyes flashed. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he seemed to walk into a special space. Clearly, there was a special restriction around the inn, and the invisible pressure suddenly weakened a lot.

He relaxed and followed the young man to a room in the inn. A middle-aged man was there, looking at an abacus and looking at an account book. He only raised his head when he heard footsteps.

"Shopkeeper, this guest wants to stay here," said the young man in the short-sleeved shirt.

"May I know your name, and how long do you want to stay?"

The shopkeeper looked at Han Li and waved his hand to let the young man leave. After closing the door, he asked coldly.

"I am Han Li, and I plan to stay here for half a year."

Han Li said his name, and he took out his red mask. He waved it in his hand, and then put it away.

These were all code words.

The shopkeeper smiled and said in an ingratiating manner, "So it is Senior Han. Welcome. Senior Jiao San has already told you to stay here for now."

"Is Senior Jiao San here?" asked Han Li.

"Senior Jiao San is not here right now," said the shopkeeper. "However, she sent a message asking you to stay here without worry. She will come to see you soon to discuss the details of the mission."

"Then I will wait for a while," said Han Li with a frown. After a while, he relaxed his frown.

"Senior, please follow me." The shopkeeper nodded and personally led Han Li to the inner courtyard.

After a few turns, the two of them arrived at a small courtyard made of green bricks and tiles. It was very clean and tidy.

Han Li was very satisfied with the place, and he nodded.

"Senior Han, you must have had a long journey. Please rest early. If you need anything, just ring the bell in the courtyard. I will be leaving now," said the shopkeeper respectfully. He was about to leave.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. I have something to ask you." Han Li stopped the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was startled, but he quickly nodded and said, "Senior, please ask. I will tell you everything I know."

"When I first entered the city, there were lanterns everywhere. Did something happen?" asked Han Li.

"Senior, do you not know?

The immortal emissaries of the Heavenly Court are coming to the Nine Yuan Temple to give out the thirty-six spots for the Banquet of Bodhi. Everyone in the city is preparing, "said the shopkeeper.

"Oh? Is that so?

I have been busy cultivating recently, so I have not heard about it.

I know about the Banquet of Bodhi, but what about the thirty-six spots? "asked Han Li.

"The Banquet of Bodhi is the number one event of the Heavenly Court. Everyone in the Realm of True Immortals wants to participate. However, the Banquet of Bodhi isn't something that anyone can attend. You need to have a spot from the Heavenly Court.

Every time before the Banquet of Bodhi, the Heavenly Court will give out the spots to the Celestial Realms. Then, the internal forces of the Celestial Realms will compete for the spots.

It is the same in the Great Golden Origin Celestial Realm. This time, the Heavenly Court will give out thirty-six spots to the Great Golden Origin Celestial Realm. When the time comes, all the forces of the Great Golden Origin Celestial Realm will gather in Nine Yuan City to compete for the spots, "said the shopkeeper.

"I see. How long will it take for the immortal emissaries of the Heavenly Court to arrive in Nine Yuan City?" asked Han Li.

"There are no definite rumors, but they should arrive soon," said the shopkeeper.

Han Li nodded. He asked a few more questions about the so-called competition for the spots and then sent the shopkeeper away.

He went to a room in the courtyard and set up several layers of restrictions around the room out of habit. Then, he sat down and pondered.

Jiao San had asked him to arrive in Nine Yuan City within thirty years, which was almost the same time as the arrival of the immortal emissaries of the Heavenly Court. This mission of the Samsara Temple was most likely related to the competition for the spots for the Banquet of Bodhi.

Han Li shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He looked into the depths of Nine Yuan City.

"Jintong, wait for me. I will definitely save you," he thought to himself. Then, he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
