Chapter 576: Chapter 275: Immortal Palace Disappears, Boundless Corpse Domain_2

Even so, the Golden Core shopkeeper’s knowledge might not be comprehensive; Han Yi would definitely need to investigate it personally to verify the authenticity of the claims.

Seeing the changes in Han Yi’s expression, the Golden Core shopkeeper’s inner heart stirred.

“Daoist friend, my name is Ni Ce. What is your name?”

Han Yi cupped his hands in greeting, “My name is Han Yi.”

Since Ni Ce divulged such a secret to him, Han Yi owed him a favor. Revealing his real name would not be inappropriate.

“What I mentioned earlier about the Beidou Immortal Palace has only been recounted by the Supreme Elder. I have not investigated personally whether the passage to the other two realms truly exists,” the Golden Core shopkeeper confessed.

“Don’t worry, Daoist Han, just listen.”

“Furthermore, you might not know that I have two roles here. One is as the shopkeeper of this Purple Cloud Pavilion, and the other is as a steward of the Good Deed Hall, one of the nine halls of the Purple Cloud Sect.”

“The Good Deed Hall has a standing mission: to introduce strong and reliable cultivators to join the sect, either as an outer hall enforcer or as an elder. If they pass the sect’s assessment, the introducer will be awarded a large sum of merit.”

“I must admit that I covet such merit myself. Since you are from Yu Heng World and unable to return for the time being, and coupled with your formidable strength, why not first settle down here and then slowly search for the passage back to the Yu Heng World?”

“Joining the Purple Cloud Sect, one of the seven major powers in the Human Clan of the Tianquan World, would provide a solid support for you, Daoist Han.”

“It’s a mutually beneficial choice. Please consider it, Daoist Han.”

Ni Ce’s intentions were clear. Noticing that Han Yi came from the Yu Heng World and surmising from the various clues that his words were likely true, Ni Ce judged that Han Yi was powerful and wanted to recruit him to the Purple Cloud Sect, reaping a large reward for himself.

If Ni Ce gained merit, Han Yi would have a place to establish himself.

Moreover, even if Han Yi lied, there would be no issue. The sect was meticulous and rigorous in its assessment of candidates for outer hall enforcers, and Ni Ce was only responsible for making the introduction. As long as Han Yi passed the sect’s assessment and gained merit, any ensuing problems would be dealt with by the Hall of Law Enforcement, one of the nine halls.

Han Yi did not immediately reject the proposal but appeared thoughtful instead. A moment later, he finally spoke.

“Shopkeeper Ni, to tell you the truth, I’m not yet resigned to my situation. I believe there must be other passages aside from the one controlled by the Beidou Immortal Palace.”

“However, if I can’t find another passage using my own methods, then I may have to ask you for your help.”

Leaving room for negotiation in his words, Han Yi met Ni Ce’s expectations. Ni Ce smiled slightly, promising to honor the request.

A moment later.

Han Yi left the Purple Cloud Pavilion with a heavy heart. His gaze wandered, filled with the melancholy of a wanderer stranded in a foreign land, longing to return home.

Of course, this melancholy was not a negative emotion but a normal human feeling.

Next.

Han Yi found a lodging house near the southern part of the city, purchasing a small courtyard residence. The residence wasn’t large, and with an additional fifty-odd square meters of backyard, the total area was just under two hundred square meters. Furthermore, the price of the residence was surprisingly… expensive.

The house cost him a thousand mid-grade Spirit Stones, enough to buy a top-notch high-grade magical tool.

Keep in mind that in the Yu Heng World, when Han Yi first arrived and lived in Little Lingxu Peak during the Early Qi Cultivation Stage, his yard was several hundred square meters in size, and the backyard was even more spacious.

Now, however, a residence of less than two hundred square meters required the expenditure of a high-grade magical tool, showing just how expensive the house was.

This was the ‘real estate’ industry in Tianquan World.

With a turn of his thoughts, Han Yi realized that the area of the Immortal Cities in the Tianquan World was much smaller than those in the Yu Heng World, and the limited space inside the cities drove up the prices of residences. Additionally, the constant threat of the Evil Clan lurking in the Human Clan’s territory and attacking human sect strongholds were factors that pushed up the cost of properties within the cities that were protected by formations.

Still, the seemingly unaffordable Spirit Stone sum for other low-level cultivators was nothing for Han Yi. His Qiankun Ring currently contained a vast amount of Spirit Stones apart from Top-Grade Spirit Stones. He had already acquired more than five million high-grade Spirit Stones, and he didn’t even bother counting the number of mid-grade Spirit Stones anymore.

These Spirit Stones mainly came from slaughtering the demon cultivators in the Illuminating World, as well as those killed during the Purple Cloud Sect stronghold incident and the recent killing of the Seventh Black God. When slaughtering, Han Yi foresakes neither friend nor foe, and he did not feel burdened by his actions.

Especially after killing the demon cultivators of the Purple Cloud Sect and the Seventh Black God, those demon cultivators and the Seventh Black God had robbed countless other cultivators of their resources, with Han Yi swooping in like a mantis catching a cicada, playing the role of a waiting oriole.

This allowed him to accumulate six Fourth-stage Talismans, three top-notch Immortal Boats, a hundred and seven Top-Grade Spirit Stones, seven top-grade magic treasures, and many other astounding ‘wealth’ that would leave Nascent Soul cultivators speechless.

Of course, Han Yi did not use the three top-notch Immortal Boats nor the seven top-grade magic treasures. Among the magic treasures, only one was a Sword Tool, but it was too large and not suitable for Han Yi’s use. Considering that he already possessed the Evil Suppression Sword and the Demon Slaying Sword, the other Sword Tools would only gather dust inside the Qiankun Ring.

Clearing his thoughts, Han Yi settled down in this new residence, taking a brief break and rearranging the contents within his Qiankun Ring.

On the second day

He set off once again.

The Purple Cloud Immortal City was where the Purple Cloud Sect was located, with the city centered around the sect. Outside of the Purple Cloud Sect, there were four major city districts – east, south, west, and north. This was another difference between the Tianquan and Yu Heng Worlds. Due to the ongoing war between the two races, the sects were not situated separately on any particular Immortal Mountains, but instead within the Immortal Cities themselves.
