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

"It's actually a fragment of the Void Heaven Map!"

A young man's exclamation came from the third floor.

Soon, some of the more experienced elderly people in the room also realized what was going on.

"A fragment of the Void Heaven Map!"

What is the "Fragment of the Void Heaven Map"?

"Useless trash, you don't even know what the Void Heaven Remnant Map is? It is... it is..."

The man thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution.

Many monks in the hall were discussing the matter animatedly.

Seeing that the time was almost right, An Rushan stroked his beard and explained:

"Does anyone know about the first secret realm in the Chaotic Star Sea—the Void Heaven Palace?"

"The Void Heaven Palace, ah, right, I remember now."

That person just slapped his forehead.

An Rushan glanced at the man, then spoke slowly and deliberately.

"The Void Heaven Palace is the number one secret realm in the Chaotic Star Sea, opening once every three hundred years. Each time, countless cultivators enter, from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage, and even the elusive Nascent Soul stage monsters gather there, all for the treasures within!"

"And this item is the only key to entering the Void Heaven Palace—the Void Heaven Fragment Map!"

At this point, An Rushan's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

In contrast, the auction hall was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

"Old ghost An, how did your Cloud Dream Pavilion manage to obtain such a precious fragment of the Void Heaven Map?"

An old, hoarse voice came from a private room on the second floor.

"How my Yunmeng Pavilion obtained it is none of your concern, fellow Daoist."

Upon hearing this, An Rushan's expression darkened.

The aged voice let out a mocking laugh after hearing this, and then fell silent.

"This fragment of the Void Heaven Map is incredibly precious. It's a stroke of luck for our Cloud Dream Pavilion to have obtained even one. The starting price is 10,000 spirit stones, with each bid increasing by at least 500 spirit stones. If you're interested, you can bid now!"

Ten thousand spirit stones!

Even the starting price for the map is 10,000 spirit stones!

One can only imagine how extraordinary the treasures inside the Void Heaven Palace must be!

The expressions of the monks in the hall were extremely varied; some were envious, some were jealous, but most were shocked.

Ten thousand spirit stones is a number that most cultivators would never even dare to dream of. Many cultivators spend their entire lives struggling to even scrape together enough money to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill.

We also had to borrow from all our relatives and friends.

The Foundation Establishment families present, even those of poor families, might be able to scrape together 10,000 spirit stones.

But he didn't make a move.

The treasures that even Nascent Soul cultivators covet are no longer within their reach; a slight misstep could lead to their death and the annihilation of their cultivation.

"Ten thousand."

The aged voice was truly unwilling to give up and tentatively offered a price.

This is all the wealth he has accumulated over the past 150 years since he established his foundation.

He is even wealthier than some newly-formed Core Formation cultivators.

"Eleven thousand."

"Twelve thousand."

"Fifteen thousand."

Before he could finish speaking, he was drowned out by the sounds of price gouging coming from the private rooms on the third floor.

The aged voice paused for a moment, then a self-deprecating smile appeared on its lips.

A lifetime's savings are just a number that some people talk about lightly.

They've only brought shame upon themselves.

......

The audience had never seen anything like it before.

I thought the earth vein jade marrow was already incredibly expensive, but I never imagined that the fragmented map of the Void Heaven was even more priceless.

"Twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

In a private room on the third floor, the young man's face was somewhat unpleasant, and his seemingly calm and gentle voice showed a slight fluctuation.

"Fellow Daoist, how about giving me this incomplete Void Heaven Map? My master will surely reward you handsomely!"

He never expected that such a treasure as the Fragment of the Void Heaven Map would appear at this small Yunmeng Pavilion auction.

He didn't bring many spirit stones with him this time. Although Yunmeng Pavilion was not worth mentioning in his eyes, it was not his own sect after all.

Twenty thousand spirit stones were close to his limit.

The young man finished speaking.

"Twenty-two thousand."

From another private room on the third floor, a sharp exchange of bids could be heard.

"Hahaha......"

"So it is Fellow Daoist Chu Qingyan in person. I am honored. If you make another offer, I will naturally concede the bid."

From the opposite compartment, a young man's voice also came, though it was somewhat hoarse and low.

"Who do you think it is? It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Wu Chou."

Chu Qingyan's tone was slightly surprised.

"Under normal circumstances, I would certainly be enjoying drinks with Brother Wu, but this map concerns the Void Heaven Palace, and I, Chu, am determined to obtain it!"

"Twenty-five thousand spirit stones!"

As soon as Chu Qingyan finished speaking, the venue fell into a brief silence.

The atmosphere began to subtly become a little off.

Some quick-thinking monks were quietly leaving the venue.

"Yuan Yao, let's go too!"

Han Li sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him, so he quickly led Yuan Yao out of the private room, paid the spirit stones, and exchanged them for the earth vein jade marrow.

A moment later, the two appeared outside Yunmeng Pavilion.

"Brother Han, what's wrong?"

On the flying sword, a hint of confusion flashed in Yuan Yao's beautiful eyes.

"Those two Core Formation cultivators appeared to be acting with composure, but in reality, a turbulent undercurrent was already brewing. If we had been a step too late, I'm afraid..."

"Boom boom—!"

Before Han Li could finish speaking, a huge explosion came from above Yunmeng Pavilion.

In the air, a cyan flame pearl engulfed in towering crimson flames and a pitch-black, chilling demonic blade collided violently.

The violent explosion was followed by a white shockwave that traveled for miles before gradually dissipating.

"Brother Wu, are you not afraid of my Azure Fire Thunder, so utterly ruthless?!"

The young man gently wiped the outside of the storage bag, and a cyan bead appeared at his fingertip. The surface was surrounded by crimson flame patterns, with faint lightning flowing around it. Even a Core Formation cultivator felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing it.

Just as the man surnamed Wu was about to say something, a loud shout came from afar:

"You wicked demons, how dare you act so recklessly under the rule of the Star Palace!"

A golden rainbow flashed across the sky, and two figures dressed in Star Palace Law Enforcement uniforms appeared quickly, their faces obscured by masks.

Golden light arrays appeared in both of their hands at the same time, and then the light arrays merged into one, forming a golden beam of light ten feet thick, which shot out towards the two of them.

"Brother Chu, the time is not yet ripe. Let's leave now and spar again later!"

A dark purple magic circle appeared behind Wu Chou, and his figure disappeared into it.

The young man surnamed Chu's face trembled as he watched the golden light shooting towards him. Just as it was about to hit him, he moved strangely and narrowly dodged it.

Then, in a flash, he appeared inside the Yunmeng Pavilion, picked up Yanli, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Seeing that his attack had missed, the Star Palace Enforcer flew to the sky above the Cloud Dream Pavilion.

One of them produced a pale white disc in his hand, its surface shimmering with light. After a moment, the man's unwilling voice rang out:

"Damn it, I can't track down those two."

"Those two are highly skilled, unlike ordinary demonic cultivators. We may not be their match."

Another Star Palace Enforcer's buzzing voice came from behind.

"Fine, inform the island lord here to conduct a thorough search and not let a single demonic cultivator escape."

"As long as I do not eradicate the demonic path, my thoughts will not be clear!"

Upon hearing this person's words, the buzzing sound ceased.

Soon, the two figures disappeared into the sky above Yunmeng Pavilion.

......

Han Li only glanced back briefly before quickly looking away.

The secret realm may be desirable, but with his current level of cultivation, interfering would only be pointless and a waste of his time.

Core Formation Stage.

One must at least break through to the Core Formation stage to be qualified to access all of this.

Han Li didn't stop and flew straight towards Kui Xing Mountain.

It remains unknown who ultimately possesses the fragmented map of the Void Heaven.

......

After a while.

In front of the Kui Xing Mountain Cave.

The cool sea breeze, carrying a faint salty scent, gently brushed against the hem of their clothes.

The fighting on Yunmeng Pavilion did not affect this place, and there was peace and tranquility in front of the cave.

Han Li and Yuan Yao stood quietly in front of the cave, as if the liveliness in Yunmeng Pavilion earlier was just an illusion.

"Yuan Yao, it's getting late, let's go back," Han Li said.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao paused for a moment, nodded, and prepared to leave.

The bare foot had just stepped forward, but before it landed, it was pulled back.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Yao's gentle voice came to my ears.

"Brother Han, will you stay on Kui Xing Island indefinitely?"
