A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm-Chapter 1327: Rescue Mission

Not long after Han Li's departure, the Reincarnation Palace Master suddenly appeared beside Gan Jiuzhen, but it was only a projection of him.

Gan Jiuzhen wasn't surprised to see this, and the Reincarnation Palace Master asked, "What do you think of him right now?"

"He feels completely unfathomable to me right now. I've only ever felt an aura so vast whenever I've been in your presence. How has he become so powerful in such a short time?" Gan Jiuzhen asked.

"He must've already severed his kind corpse soul, which means that his powers won't be inferior by much even compared with my own," the Reincarnation Palace Master replied with a smile.

"You're saying he's already progressed to the late-Great Encompassment Stage in such a short time? How?" Gan Jiuzhen exclaimed.

"I don't know how he did it, but one thing you have to remember is that the three paramount laws are referred to as such because they are closer to the essence of the Heavenly Dao than all other laws. Once a cultivator of one of the three paramount laws has severed their wicked and kind corpse souls, they will begin to be able to draw upon the power of the Heavenly Dao, granting them power on par with or even superior to that of the average Dao Ancestor.

“As a cultivator of reincarnation law powers, that's something that you can also look forward to upon reaching the late-Great Encompassment Stage," the Reincarnation Palace Master explained.

"Looks like I need to work even harder in my cultivation," Gan Jiuzhen said as she clenched her fists with a look of resolve in her eyes.

"Cultivating the paramount laws comes with significant benefits over cultivating other law powers, but it's a very difficult path to pursue, and it becomes even more difficult at the Great Encompassment Stage.

“There are countless cultivators across the True Immortal Realm who have attempted to walk such a path, but very few succeed. It's extremely important not to become overly ambitious and bite off more than you can chew," the Reincarnation Palace Master cautioned.

"Yes, Father," Gan Jiuzhen replied in a sheepish manner.

"If you wish to further your cultivation, I suggest you go and travel through some mortal realms for inspiration," the Reincarnation Palace Master said.

"How is that going to help?" Gan Jiuzhen asked in a puzzled manner.

"One of the keys to severing one's kind corpse soul is to understand the true meaning of kindness. Unfortunately, many cultivators lose sight of the meaning and importance of kindness over the course of their long cultivation journeys, and it's often the case that traveling through the mortal realms can allow one to reawaken the kindness in their heart," the Reincarnation Palace Master explained.

A thoughtful look appeared on Gan Jiuzhen's face upon hearing this.

"Those who live pure and kind lives are blessed with positive reciprocation when their souls enter the cycle of reincarnation. Even though I am able to control the six paths of reincarnation, it's not easy for me to alter the fates of those who've led lives of great kindness," the Reincarnation Palace Master continued.

"I see. Are you really going to do as Gu Huojin says, Father?" Gan Jiuzhen asked.

"A battle between our Reincarnation Palace and the Heavenly Court is inevitable. Your mother has already been captured, so you must remain safe no matter what, Jiuzhen," the Reincarnation Palace Master said in a gentle voice.

"I want to go and rescue Mother with you," Gan Jiuzhen said.

"No! You are to stay here and not stray a single step from this island!" the Reincarnation Palace Master said in a stern manner.

This was the first time that she had seen the Reincarnation Palace Master with such a stern expression, and she shuddered slightly in response, but her resolve didn't waver.

"Only when you're safe can I focus fully on dealing with the Heavenly Court. Leave your mother to me and Han Li," the Reincarnation Palace Master sighed as he patted Gan Jiuzhen on the shoulder, then vanished into thin air.

In the wake of his departure, Gan Jiuzhen remained rooted to the spot in a slight daze for quite some time before making her way deeper into the palace.

......

Dragon Abyss Immortal Region, Sky Sea Continent, Mist Dragon City.

The Dragon Abyss Immortal Region was extremely abundant with water sources. In fact, over 80% of the entire immortal region was ocean, and the land only consisted of sparse islands dotted throughout the sea.

The largest of those islands was the Sky Sea Continent, while Mist Dragon City was the largest city on the Sky Sea Continent.

Mist Dragon City was a coastal city that had been strategically constructed at the junction of several continents, and it was vastly renowned across the entire immortal region.

However, what was even more renowned was the Mist Dragon Sect that was situated outside Mist Dragon City.

The Mist Dragon Sect was a sect that had been around for countless years, and it had always been the number one sect in the entire immortal region.

The most renowned cultivator in the history of the sect by a huge margin was none other than Feng Qingshui, whose Dao Ancestor status only further cemented the sect's status as the dominant force in the immortal region.

At the center of Mist Dragon City was a plaza that was several dozen kilometers in size, and it was being patrolled by groups of blue-robed guards.

All of these guards were outer sect disciples of the Mist Dragon Sect, and they were responsible for maintaining order in Mist Dragon City.

Not only was Mist Dragon City under the jurisdiction of the Mist Dragon Sect, the same applies to the entire Sky Sea Continent, making it very difficult even for the Dragon Abyss Immortal Palace to have much sway over the continent.

At the center of the plaza was a huge, blue archway that reached all the way up to the clouds like a blue mountain.

The archway was riddled with countless array patterns that extended down to the plaza below,forming over a thousand teleportation arrays of different sizes, all of which were currently flashing.

These teleportation arrays were connected to many different immortal regions, and countless people came and went through them every single day.

Right at this moment, a group of six figures emerged from one of the teleportation arrays.

Five of them were chatting amicably with one another, while the sixth figure, an azure-robed man, appeared to have been a little distant from the group.

Among the five cultivators, a blue-robed young woman took a deep breath, then exclaimed, "So this is Mist Dragon City! It's so majestic, and the world's origin qi here is so abundant as well! It's way better than our Eternal Sky Immortal Region!"

"Of course. The Dragon Abyss Immortal Region is one of the thirty-six large immortal regions, so it's naturally much better than our Eternal Heaven Immortal Region. It looks like we made the right decision to pool together all of our funds to purchase a teleportation token to this place," a black-robed elderly man said.

As a Golden Immortal, he possessed the loftiest cultivation base of the five, and it was clear that he was the leader of the group.

"Of course, we also have to thank Fellow Daoist Han for chipping in. Otherwise, we would've still been short on funds," the elderly man said as he turned to the azure-robed man with a smile.

"You're far too kind, Fellow Daoist Huo. This was a mutually beneficial deal for all of us. The teleportation array is able to teleport six people at once, so I also saved a lot of Immortal Origin Stones by traveling with your group," the azure-robed man replied with a smile of his own.

The black-robed elderly man turned his gaze back to his companions as he said, "Right now, we barely have any Immortal Origin Stones between us, so there will undoubtedly be some hard times to come. Let's all work hard so that we can establish a foothold here as soon as possible."

His four companions gave a collective, affirmative response.

"Fellow Daoist Han, you're also a vagrant cultivator, so how about you join us as well? There's always more strength in numbers," the black-robed elderly man offered.

"I have some private matters to attend to, so I'm afraid this is where we'll have to part ways. Good luck with your cultivation, fellow daoists," the azure-robed man said as he cupped his fist in a parting salute.

The black-robed elderly man was rather disappointed to hear this, but he didn't say anything further as he departed with his four companions.

Meanwhile, the azure-robed man remained on the plaza as he began to inspect his surroundings.

"Oi, you over there! Don't loiter on the teleportation plaza! This isn't your backyard!" a nearby guard yelled, but the azure-robed man simply ignored him.

A furious look instantly appeared on the guard's face upon seeing this, and he was just about to detain the azure-robed man to administer a stern punishment when he suddenly stopped cold in his tracks.

Even though the azure-robed man was merely standing still on the spot, the guard's soul had suddenly begun to tremble in his presence, leading him to reflexively stop in his tracks.

The azure-robed man was none other than Han Li, and at this moment, he was scouring the surrounding area with his spiritual sense.

The Dragon Abyss Immortal Region was far more massive than the Crane Ridge Immortal Region, so his spiritual sense was only able to encompass a small section of it.

However, the entire Sky Sea Continent had still fallen within his spiritual sensory range, as was the entirety of the Mist Dragon Sect.

The only problem was that he wasn't able to detect the auras of either Nangong Wan or Feng Qingshui.

Even though Feng Qingshui was a Dao Ancestor, surely there was no way that he should've been able to remain hidden from his spiritual sense, given that he had now mastered all seven levels of the Spirit Refinement Technique.

Could it be that I've been fed false information?

After a brief moment of contemplation, Han Li turned to the nearby guard, and a layer of murky light appeared in his eyes.

The guard's eyes instantly became glazed over, and countless memories began flashing through his pupils in rapid succession, laying out his entire life for Han Li to see.

Given Han Li's current mastery over the Spirit Refinement Technique, he was now able to examine a High Zenith cultivator's memories with ease, as opposed to having to use intrusive soul search techniques.

Through the guard's memories, Han Li was able to glean some information about Mist Dragon Sect, and with that, he instantly vanished from the spot.

The dazed look in the guard's eyes instantly faded away, and he shuddered as he snapped back to his senses.

"What the hell just happened?" the guard murmured to himself, and he felt as if there were a small gap in his memory.

He looked around momentarily in a perplexed manner, then scratched his own head as he returned to his patrol duties.
