Chapter 837

Han Li hurriedly withdrew the eyeball upon seeing this, and only then did the strange phenomenon in the room disappear.

This was definitely not a normal Solitary Tai Hou Eye; the time power imbued within it was several times more powerful than that of the first Tai Hou he had obtained. Could it be that this was a mutated Tai Hou mutant beast?

Han Li was quite perplexed, but he was unable to find an answer to this question. However, it was quite clear that he had benefited greatly from this encounter.

Most of the items listed on the catalog that he had taken out from the Immortal Spirit Pavilion were items that were related to the laws of time, and that was in preparation for his cultivation of the Five Elemental Illusionary Mantra.

If he were to cultivate the Five Elemental Illusionary Mantra slowly, he would be able to slowly progress in his cultivation, but it would take a very long time. However, if he had an item that was related to the laws of time, he would be able to significantly speed up his cultivation, and this special Solitary Tai Hou Eye was perfect for that purpose.

After withdrawing the eye, a contemplative look appeared on his face.

According to his itinerary today, he had intended to find a way to privately contact the High Priest of the Demon Race.

However, when the shopkeeper offered to sell him some confidential information, he hesitated momentarily before decisively giving up on that idea.

On one hand, he didn't trust this shop, and on the other hand, he wanted to learn more about the rules of Yang Ye City before making a decision. It would be unwise for him to make a rash decision right now.

He was currently situated in a foreign land, and he didn't know much about the environment here, so it was best for him to be more cautious. If he were to encounter any trouble, he would have to rely on himself.

A short while later, Han Li suddenly furrowed his brows, and he waved a hand through the air, upon which a gate of light appeared amid a flash of silver light.

Daoist Xie strode out of the gate and made his way over to Han Li.

"Friend Han, that strange feeling has appeared again..."

"Tell me about it," Han Li asked as he gestured for Daoist Xie to take a seat across from him.

"When you were walking around Yang Ye City earlier, some memories flashed through my mind, but they were all very fragmented, and I couldn't link them together," Daoist Xie said after a brief pause.

"What kind of scenes are they? Why don't you describe them to me?" Han Li's heart stirred as he said.

Daoist Xie's brows furrowed tightly as he pondered for a long while before replying, "There's a small black city with an azure river and a massive arch bridge..."

"That's it?" Han Li was taken aback and asked.

"For some reason, the images were very clear in my mind, but they're becoming more and more blurry as I speak," Daoist Xie said as he rubbed his temples in a pained manner.

"It's fine if you can't remember anything. We won't be leaving Sunnight City for the time being, so these scenes will probably appear again.

After Shi Chuankong comes out, I will first ask him about the situation of the Accumulated Scale Void Realm. "Han Li said after thinking about it.

Daoist Xie nodded hesitantly.

"Since you're in such a hurry to see me, there must be something else, right?" Han Li asked.

"The Jilin Spatial Realm... seems to be a very dangerous place..." Daoist Xie said in a hesitant manner.

"Do you remember anything?" Han Li asked.

"I only have a vague impression of it, but that's all," Daoist Xie replied with a shake of his head.

"Looks like this place will be helpful for you to recover your memories. Perhaps your master has been here before... We'll talk about it after we figure it out," Han Li said with a contemplative expression.

"I obtained some more materials from Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's storage ring, which will be beneficial to my cultivation. My Skycleaver and Skycleaver Sabers also need to be upgraded, so I want to go into seclusion for a while," Daoist Xie said.

"Everything is safe in Sunnight City for now, so you can go into seclusion. I won't disturb you unless it's necessary," Han Li said with a nod.

"Thank you," Daoist Xie said before returning to his cave abode.

As for Han Li, he sat in silence for a moment before taking out the map and imperial bulletin he had purchased from the store and began to carefully examine them.

...

Over a dozen days later, when Han Li left the third prince's residence for the Imperial River Square again, the young woman by the name of "Hu Jingjing" did not appear again, nor did he discover anyone following her.

From then on, it was as if Han Li had been completely forgotten by the third prince, and the two of them no longer interacted.

Several months later, Han Li had visited all of the shops in the Divine River Square, then sold off all of the devilish treasures in Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's storage ring in exchange for several treasures that were imbued with the laws of time.

At the same time, Han Li also began to inquire about the High Priestess, as well as the method to save the Weeping Soul Beast.

However, regardless of which one it was, he received very little information, and there wasn't much that was useful.

Out of caution, Han Li intentionally avoided shops with deep backgrounds like the store and the Flowing Wind Pavilion.

Later on, by chance, a shopkeeper who had become relatively familiar with him suggested that he might as well make a trip to the Sky Street.

The shopkeeper said that there were many high-grade sacred race pill refiners overseeing the Heavenly Streets. Among them was a Heavenly Pill Refiner from the Flourishing Origin Hall who was extremely proficient in treating difficult and complicated illnesses. As such, he suggested that Han Li give it a try.

On this day, Han Li drove the scaly carriage through most of Yang Ye City and arrived at the Sky Street.

The Sky Street was more than twice the size of the Imperial River Square. Although it was called a street, it was actually an entire market. There were seven vertical and seven horizontal streets in total, all of which were large shops that mainly sold pills and spirit materials.

The main entrance of the market was also a huge white stone archway, and inside the archway was a white stone plaza that covered a large area. There weren't many furnishings on the plaza, only a bronze pill furnace that was over 100 feet tall stood in the center.

There was still a flame burning inside the furnace, and there was green smoke curling up from the top of the furnace.

Han Li stopped next to the pill furnace and wrinkled his nose. He sniffed lightly, and then revealed a smile.

There was no pill being refined in this pill furnace, but some unique incense of the Devil Race to cover up the indescribable smell of all kinds of spirit materials and pills in the entire market.

Bypassing the pill furnace, Han Li walked into the opposite street and slowly walked towards the depths of the street.

The buildings in the street were more orderly than the mixed style of the Imperial River Square. Most of them had white walls and high ground, with spires and domes adjacent to each other.

Although the street was full of people, it didn't seem noisy and chaotic. There were no shopkeepers inside or outside the shops, and everything seemed stable and orderly.

Han Li didn't wander along the alleys. Instead, he followed the shopkeeper's instructions and directly walked to the middle of the main street. He then turned to the left and arrived at an adjacent street, heading straight for the Flourishing Origin Hall.

As he approached, Han Li found that this Flourishing Origin Hall was really different. The facade was twice as large as the surrounding shops, and there were people coming in and out of the door. It looked very lively.

Slowly stepping into the store, the counters on both sides were full of Devil Race cultivators. Seven or eight shop assistants were busy greeting these guests. For a while, no one came to greet Han Li.

At this time, a slightly fat middle-aged man in a brocade robe happened to come out of the inner hall. When he saw Han Li, he greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Sorry for neglecting our esteemed guest." The man hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay. I just came in." Han Li smiled.

"What does the distinguished guest want to buy?

Pills or spiritual materials? "The middle-aged man looked up and down at Han Li and asked.

"Neither. I want to see someone." Han Li shook his head and said.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes flashed with a touch of surprise, and then he looked at Han Li with some vigilance.

"Shopkeeper, don't get me wrong. I just want to see the Chief Heaven Pill Master of your Flourishing Origin Hall. I have something to ask of him. I don't have any evil intentions." Han Li quickly cupped his fists and said.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he looked slightly relieved and said, "It turns out that you want to see Master Kang. Unfortunately, Master Kang is currently in seclusion to refine pills. I'm afraid he can't see you."

"Seclusion?

That's a pity. "Han Li said with some surprise.

"If the distinguished guest wants to buy some special pills made by Master Kang, we still have some in the store. Why don't you have a look?" The middle-aged man said.

Han Li hesitated for a moment before asking, "When will Grandmaster Kang emerge from seclusion?"

"This... I don't know." The middle-aged man said slightly apologetically.

"In that case, I'll visit another day." Han Li sighed in his heart and turned to walk out of the store.

When the middle-aged shopkeeper saw this, he shook his head and turned to walk back to the inner hall.

When Han Li came to the street, he glanced back at the Flourishing Origin Hall, and then walked to the other side of the street.

At this time, a tall purple-robed Youth also came out of the Flourishing Origin Hall. He followed behind Han Li and turned into another street.

For some reason, the man didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, so Han Li soon discovered the abnormality.

Han Li walked to the street corner, stopped, and turned to look at the man.

He saw that the man had an ordinary appearance. His black hair was tied up high, and the color of his eyes was a rather rare dark purple. Even in the daytime, there was still a little star-like brilliance blooming in his eyes.

When the man saw that Han Li was standing still, a smile appeared on his face as he calmly walked toward Han Li.

When Han Li saw this, his brows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly. He became more vigilant in his heart. He found that he couldn't detect the cultivation aura of this person.

"Friend, are you waiting for me?" The purple-robed Youth walked to Han Li and asked.

"That's not right. Friend, haven't you been following me?" Han Li said calmly.

"My name is Han Li. I heard that friend is looking for a Heaven Pill Master in the Flourishing Origin Hall. I wonder if I heard wrong?" The purple-robed Youth smiled and said.
