Mortal: Transmigrated into Han Li, becoming a person with five spiritual roots

......

"A Core Formation cultivator!"

The old man with the goatee knelt on both knees, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

Thirty years ago, the young man in front of me was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Yet, in just a few years, he broke through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage!

This is absolutely appalling!

Those around him were all shocked when they heard the old man's words.

"This junior...this junior was blind and did not recognize your worth...I hope you will forgive me, senior."

After a moment's hesitation, the old man finally broke down his defenses, bowed deeply, and addressed himself as a junior.

His white beard trembled incessantly as he begged for mercy.

Is this still the same old man who used to bully and oppress others?!

"Senior Brother Han, who is he?"

Shi Die looked at the goatee-bearded old man who was constantly kowtowing not far away and asked in confusion.

"Just a nobody."

"let's go."

Han Li said calmly.

"Oh well."

Upon hearing Han Li's words, Shi Die lost interest in him.

Then, Han Li stopped looking at the goatee-bearded old man, and with a flash of white jade light, the two figures disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Seeing the two leave, the goatee-bearded old man stood there, staring blankly at the spot where Han Li had just stood, lost in thought.

After a long while, the old man regained consciousness and got up from the ground.

Only then did he realize that his clothes were already soaked through.

"Next!"

After a moment, the old man continued to shout.

His voice was much lower, and his eyes seemed to have lost some of their brilliance; he no longer had the arrogance he once possessed.

......

Dongxing Island Market.

Although it is far less luxurious than the Tianxing City Market.

However, due to the teleportation array, the island was bustling with many mid- to low-level cultivators from various places.

"Qi Gathering Pills! Two spirit stones a bottle, fair and square!"

"A mid-tier magical flying sword! Don't miss it, come and take a look!"

"Cold Water Stone..."

......

The streets were bustling with activity, with stalls on both sides teeming with people and vehicles.

From time to time, monks would shout and promote their own goods, creating a very lively atmosphere.

Shi Die gently took Han Li's arm, and the two walked along the street.

They looked just like a couple going out to buy supplies.

Shi Die seemed to be enjoying this time, constantly pulling Han Li to look at this and that, her face beaming with smiles.

"Low-level Explosion Talisman! Three spirit stones per talisman!"

Arriving at a stall selling talismans, a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old kept shouting and promoting his talismans to everyone who passed by.

Han Li was far too familiar with the Explosion Talisman.

Back when he hadn't yet reached the Foundation Establishment stage, he had already repelled powerful enemies many times by relying on the large number of explosive talismans he possessed.

Now, low-level explosive runes are no longer of any use to him.

even so.

Han Li subconsciously walked to the stall and casually picked up a crimson talisman.

Looking back on those days.

"Senior, would you like some explosive talismans?"

"Three spirit stones per sheet!"

The boy's face lit up with surprise when he saw Han Li pick up the red exploding talisman from the stall.

The senior before me possessed an extraordinary aura and demeanor, yet I could not discern his cultivation level.

He must be quite wealthy!

I must seize this opportunity!

"Senior, these explosive talismans of mine are all top-quality."

"Buy more and get a discount! Five tickets only cost thirteen, no, twelve low-grade spirit stones!"

The boy held up a number with his hand, his eyes filled with hope.

Han Li pondered for a moment, just about to say something.

Just then, Shi Die's delighted voice came from beside her:

"Senior Brother Han, look at that rock!"

A gentle pull came from Han Li's left arm, trying to pull him to the other side.

Left with no other choice, Han Li waved his hand to collect the five talismans from the boy's stall, then casually tossed out a small bag of spirit stones.

Then he left.

"Senior! You've given me too much!"

The boy checked the bag and found seventeen or eighteen pieces of jade that were shimmering with fluorescence.

Although the number of spirit stones he received exceeded his expectations, the young man was pleasantly surprised, but he did not intend to ask for more than the agreed twelve spirit stones.

So he quickly looked up, trying to find Han Li.

But in the bustling streets of the market, Han Li was nowhere to be seen.

"Thank you, senior."

The boy firmly memorized Han Li's figure and bowed slightly forward.

......

the other side.

"Senior Brother Han, look! That rock is so beautiful!"

Shi Die pulled Han Li to a stall.

Inside a wooden box on the stall, a peculiar piece of jade lay quietly.

Under the sunlight, the crystal-clear jade radiates a dazzling light.

"It's really good."

Han Li looked at the jade and nodded slightly.

This jade is not a rare material, but just an ordinary stone, yet it does possess a certain exquisite beauty.

"Seniors, could it be that you have taken a fancy to this stone?"

Seeing Han Li and Shi Die approaching, the stall owner walked over with a smile.

The stall owner was lean, with a mustache, and his two black eyes were full of shrewdness.

"What's the price of this jade?"

Shi Die's clear voice rang out as she looked at the stall owner.

"Senior has excellent eyesight. This jade was obtained by my friend and me after overcoming numerous hardships in a secret realm..."

Seeing that Shi Die was interested, the stall owner immediately launched into a story.

"So that's how it is. The process was indeed thrilling."

What is the price range of this jade?

After hearing this, Shi Die became even more eager to buy the jade and asked again.

"Senior, are you aware that my friend even died in the secret realm because of this?"

"so?"

"Senior, do you know that he is my beloved family and friends, my brothers and sisters?"

"Um?"

"One hundred low-grade spirit stones, no bargaining."

The shrewd stall owner spoke for a long time before finally saying...

"One hundred low-grade spirit stones? That'll buy you a regular jade stone."

"Street vendor, are you out of your mind?!"

Upon hearing this, the onlookers immediately erupted in commotion.

Ordinary things are worthless to cultivators, so who would spend a hundred spirit stones to buy an ordinary item?

Upon hearing this, the stall owner looked at the people around him with disdain.

His eyes gleamed as he looked first at Shi Die, then at Han Li.

He had seen it coming long ago.

These two young people are so young, yet their cultivation levels are indiscernible; they must be Foundation Establishment cultivators from a major sect!

Their intimate behavior suggests they are definitely Daoist partners!

He had heard of Core Formation cultivators who spent thousands of spirit stones just to win a smile from a beautiful woman!

How could a cultivator from such a prestigious sect not be able to produce a mere hundred spirit stones!

With just one wave, he can make a fortune!

Thinking of this, the shrewd stall owner's breathing became slightly rapid, but he tried his best to keep his breathing steady so as not to let himself notice anything unusual.

"Still buying? One hundred spirit stones, no bargaining!"

The shrewd stall owner even took the initiative, saying something while glancing in Han Li's direction.

Kid, you don't even have a hundred spirit stones, what face do you have to come out with your partner? You might as well go home, wash up, and go to sleep.

But what happened next was completely the opposite of what he expected.

"Okay, I'll buy it. Here's one hundred spirit stones."

Shi Die's clear and melodious voice rang out as she took out a spirit stone bag and tossed it to the stall owner.

The shrewd stall owner was caught off guard and stood frozen in place.

His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Han Li.

No, you're actually a kept man?

Based on your ordinary appearance?

"Okay!"

"Please accept this, fairy."

Although he was very puzzled, the shrewd stall owner still wrapped up the jade and handed it to Shi Die.

"Senior Brother Han, let's go."

After buying the jade, Shi Die took Han Li's arm and left the spot.

The shrewd stall owner looked puzzled as he watched the two figures leave.

Do female cultivators from major sects these days all like this type?

Does that mean I also have a chance?

The shrewd stall owner found a bronze mirror from somewhere and kept stroking his slicked-back mustache, which gleamed with oil.

"I'm definitely more handsome and dashing."
