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

"I apologize for my rudeness and for disturbing you, senior."

Han Li quickly bowed.

The coins also hurriedly stood up, bowed, and were no longer as calm and composed as before.

But as soon as Han Li finished speaking, he felt an extremely terrifying divine sense flash by.

"Such a young person at the peak of Foundation Establishment, with a harmonious aura, solid foundation, and rather excellent spiritual sense—interesting, very interesting!"

The man smiled slightly, glanced at Han Li, and commented.

Upon hearing this, Han Li felt as if he had instantly fallen into an ice cave.

The person in front of me saw right through me with just one look.

My spiritual sense is comparable to that of someone in the early stage of Core Formation!

And he used the technique of gathering qi.

Although it wasn't some profound technique, it shouldn't have been so easily seen through.

Could it be the late stage of Core Formation?

Or is it a Nascent Soul cultivator?

Thinking of this, Han Li felt a chill in his heart, but he immediately dismissed the idea.

Although Kui Xing Island is one of the twenty-four alien islands, it is not a large island and does not have any special resources or products. How could it possibly attract Nascent Soul cultivators?

"Hahaha, you lot don't need to be so alarmed."

"After all, I'm not some man-eating monster."

The man was slightly taken aback when he saw the two men looking at him as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Then he burst into laughter, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"However, what this friend said makes a lot of sense, which is why I sighed."

Hearing the man's words, Han Li became less cautious.

"It was just a fleeting feeling, how could it possibly meet the standards of a senior like you?"

"Are you going to participate in the demon-suppressing ceremony?"

The man didn't reply, his expression returned to normal, and he looked at Han Li.

"That's right. May I ask what guidance you may offer, senior?"

After hearing the man's words, Han Li pondered for a moment and finally answered truthfully.

He was already preparing to participate in the Demon Suppression Ceremony. Given the man's cultivation level, there was no point in hiding such a grand event.

The man nodded after hearing this, looked at Han Li, paused, and said:

"I advise you to leave as soon as you've received your prizes from the Demon Suppression Ceremony and not to linger in the crowd."

The man's deep voice rang out, and his words of advice reached the ears of the two.

Han Li was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

They're urging me to leave sooner?

Is something big about to happen?

"Thank you for the reminder, senior. I'll take my leave now."

However, Han Li did not reveal his true thoughts, but instead bowed respectfully.

Then, he quickly left the restaurant.

Shortly after they left the restaurant.

Beside the effeminate man, a figure in black appeared out of nowhere. The figure had several terrifying scars on its face, and although it wore a half-mask, it could not hide its ugly appearance.

Judging from his cultivation level, he was clearly a Core Formation cultivator!

The ugly young man, who was only at the Core Formation stage, respectfully bowed to the effeminate man, and then a slightly hoarse voice came from behind him:

"Senior Feng hope, everything is now ready. I wonder what you promised my ancestor..."

Upon hearing this, Feng hope downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, a hint of displeasure on his face:

"Alright, Wu Chou, I understand. Once that old ghost comes out of seclusion, tell him to come find me himself!"

"Get out of here!"

Feng hope waved his hand, then poured himself another glass of wine, looked out the window, his brows furrowed slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

Although Wu Chou was dissatisfied, he dared not show it too much in front of Feng hope. He bowed respectfully again, and then a strange blackish-purple aura appeared before his figure disappeared instantly.

However, Han Li was completely unaware of all this.

......

A moment later, Han Li and Qian Bi were far away from the restaurant.

Only then did they begin to talk freely.

"Fellow Daoist Qian, was that senior from earlier one of the Core Formation cultivators on the island?"

Han Li asked casually.

"To be honest, Elder Han, there aren't many Core Formation cultivators on Changju Island. I've lived here for over two hundred years, and although I haven't seen them all, I remember most of them. As for that senior just now..."

"He is definitely not a Core Formation cultivator native to my Kui Xing Island!"

The coin frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then came to a decisive conclusion.

Han Li nodded slightly after hearing this.

Although the experience just now was quite unusual, given the effeminate man's cultivation level, he wouldn't deceive me.

This matter is certainly not unfounded!

So, should we participate in the Demon Suppression Ceremony or not?

Han Li remained silent for a while, but finally decided to participate.

There's no other reason than that Core Formation artifacts are incredibly precious!

Besides, if we follow what that person said, we can simply collect the reward and leave as soon as possible.

As long as you leave in time, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Elder Han, are you still going to participate in the Demon Suppression Ceremony?"

The coin asked.

"The rewards are generous this time, and with my core cultivation nearing completion, it's only natural that I participate!"

"In that case, let's go to the registration location together!"

......

A moment later, the group arrived at a square.

In front of the square, there stood the huge circular building that had been seen earlier.

Only when you stand before the building do you realize its grandeur.

The circular building is about ten feet high and is constructed entirely of gray boulders, yet there is not a single gap between the boulders.

The walls of the building are carved with many array inscriptions, making it quite mysterious.

Besides that, the most eye-catching thing is the two huge flags hanging on the wall.

"That blue flag represents the Star Palace, and that purple flag with six stars connected is the symbol of the Six-Linked Palace."

Seeing Han Li's puzzled expression, Qianbi stroked his white beard and slowly explained.

"The Six-Tier Palace?"

"It's a trading organization under the Star Palace..."

As they spoke, the group walked to the front of the building. At that moment, the stone gate of the circular building was open, and the nearly ten-zhang-long stone gate exuded an ancient and profound aura.

A long queue had already formed outside the door.

Beside the line, a group of people were chatting and laughing heartily when they came to something they liked.

As if they had seen Han Li and Qian Bi, a sharp cough rang out, and everyone's expressions quickly returned to seriousness. They immediately straightened their clothes and bowed to Qian Bi and Han Li.

They were members of the Qian family.

"Ancestor."

Elder Han.

By this time, they already knew Han Li's identity.

After listening, Qianbi nodded slightly, quite satisfied with his son's discernment.

Then, the coin glanced at everyone and slowly spoke.

Elder Han is preparing to participate in the Demon Suppression Ceremony.

"Who among you has the guts to go with Elder Han?"

As soon as Qianbi finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent.

The Qian family elders and disciples looked at each other, speechless, and finally lowered their heads.

"You sons of bitches, you worthless piece of trash!"

"Not a single one of them has the guts!"

Seeing that no one answered, the coins turned red with anger.

"We're sons of bitches, so what are you...?"

At that moment, someone muttered something.

The situation instantly became awkward.

"Who's speaking!"

"Who is it!"

Qianbi grabbed one of the disciples and, without thinking twice, gave him a good beating.

"Ancestor, it really wasn't me..."

The disciple who was lucky enough to be chosen looked at the coins with resentment, but upon seeing their furious gaze, he swallowed back the rest of his words.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Elder Han."

A moment later, Qianbi looked at Elder Han with an embarrassed smile on his face.

Actually, we can't entirely blame the Qian family members, because the casualty rate of the Demon Suppression Ceremony has been quite high over the years.

Because the demonic beasts that cultivators fight are not assigned according to their strength, but are randomly selected.

There was once a pair of Qi Refining cultivators who were incredibly unlucky and actually drew a fifth-tier demon beast!

According to the rules of the Demon Suppression Ceremony, spectators are not allowed to offer assistance regardless of the outcome.

Unfortunately, that team was completely wiped out in the end, with no trace of their bodies!

"It's alright."

Han Li smiled slightly, offering no further comment on the matter.

After all, it's their family matter.

"In that case, I, Han, will go and register first."
