Immortal Martial Arts: Marry a Wife and Live a Long Life

Chapter 59: Holy Abyss

On the border of Fengyang Prefecture.

There is a range of mountains here that stretches for hundreds of miles, with the main peak reaching a height of five thousand zhang, known as Yingyuan Mountain.

Legend has it that Yingyuan Mountain was once a dragon transformed from an ancient era. This dragon had profound cultivation and was chased to the Qian Primordial Spirit Province, eventually dying in the region where Fengyang Prefecture is located. Its body turned into mountains, making the spiritual energy here extremely abundant.

Yun Miaoyi didn't believe in this legend at all.

Having been squatting here for over a year, she had already thoroughly inspected Yingyuan Mountain and found nothing special about it. The spiritual energy was not particularly abundant either.

"Could it be that after so many years, the spiritual energy of Yingyuan Mountain has been completely depleted?"

Yun Miaoyi frowned, feeling that it was highly possible.

Even though the cultivation of that dragon surpassed the Universal Truth Realm, reaching the legendary Holy Abyss Realm, where the power of a saint was unrivaled and the body possessed invincible strength, it couldn't withstand the erosion of time.

There were some records in the Yin Yang Dao scriptures about this. Legend had it that an ancient saint traveled through the eight hundred divine continents, slaying dragons that brought calamity to the world. The dragon that escaped to the Qian Primordial Spirit Province was the last one in the world.

That ancient saint pursued this dragon for three thousand years and finally killed it in the Qian Primordial Spirit Province, with its body turning into the continuous Yingyuan Mountain.

At this moment, a woman in white clothes, with silver hair and a fairy sword on her back, flew over and landed not far from Yun Miaoyi.

Jiang Baiye glanced at Yun Miaoyi and knew what she was thinking. She said, "Don't daydream about the dragon's treasure and the inheritance of the Dragon-Slaying Great Saint. It has been over a hundred thousand years, or even longer. Even if there were treasures and inheritances, they would have been discovered long ago."

During this period of time, whenever Yun Miaoyi was squatting here, she would wander around aimlessly and even strike up conversations in front of her. Jiang Baiye's ears were almost calloused from it.

Yun Miaoyi smiled charmingly, revealing countless charms. She didn't have any hope either, she was just passing the time. What if she really encountered something?

"Has Han Li appeared?" Yun Miaoyi asked.

They wouldn't just wait here. They were also worried that Han Li might have detoured back to Fengyang Prefecture or gone somewhere else. Every month, one of the two women would go to the Tianji Tower in Fengyang City to purchase information about Han Li's whereabouts.

"He appeared in the Fenglei Prefecture a day ago," Jiang Baiye said casually.

Yun Miaoyi furrowed her brows slightly. "Why did he go to the Fenglei Prefecture?"

According to the intelligence records, Han Li wouldn't wander around randomly. Apart from occasionally going to the Tianxuan Mountain, he basically stayed in the Lingjun City.

After returning from the Tianxuan Mountain, Han Li didn't go directly back to Fengyang Prefecture. Instead, he went to the Fenglei Prefecture in another direction. It seemed suspicious.

Was it a task arranged by the Tianxuan Mountain? Or did Han Li sense something? Or did he have something to do there?

Various speculations surfaced in Yun Miaoyi's mind. She stuck out her small tongue and licked her red lips, saying, "Did Qiu Shuilin and Gongsun Yun go with him?"

Jiang Baiye shook her head.

"Let's go," Jiang Baiye said.

Yun Miaoyi nodded. The two of them immediately left Yingyuan Mountain and headed towards the Fenglei Prefecture.

This was also Jiang Baiye's purpose for coming back. If Han Li detoured back to Lingjun City, she would capture him directly. She wouldn't care about Yun Miaoyi for the sake of the Life Nurturing Furnace.

But now Han Li's behavior was suspicious. To be on the safe side, she decided to bring Yun Miaoyi along. If there were any unexpected situations, the two of them could handle it together.

Both of them were in the Soul Refining Realm and had cultivated their high-level body techniques and footwork to a profound level. Their speed was extremely fast, comparable to that of an ordinary Empty Void Grandmaster.

When Han Li left Lingjun City and rushed to the Tianxuan Mountain, it took him more than ten days. The Fenglei Prefecture was even further away, but the two women only took a short amount of time.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi hurried to the Fenglei Prefecture City and quickly learned Han Li's exact whereabouts.

Han Li arrived in the Fenglei Prefecture City yesterday evening and stayed at the Yunling Inn. The next morning, he left the city and headed to the Wanxia Mountain, a thousand miles west of the city. His purpose was still unclear.

The two women exchanged glances and immediately decided to head to Wanxia Mountain.

Although they didn't know Han Li's purpose for going to Wanxia Mountain, they were bold and daring, not caring about these trivial details.

If their speculation was correct and Han Li had killed all seven wandering cultivators, then there was a high probability that Lu Renbin was also killed by Han Li.

From the investigation at the scene, the person who killed the seven wandering cultivators had a cultivation level of at least the Vital Spirit Realm. If Han Li was in the Vital Spirit Realm, based on the time it took for him to break through the Sea Opening Realm, Han Li was estimated to be in the early Vital Spirit Realm.

This is already the second time Han Li has seen these two women, but in reality, they don't really believe it. How could someone with a rank eight aptitude cultivate so quickly? Are they joking?

They didn't underestimate Han Li. They even speculated that Han Li was at the peak of the Vital Spirit Realm or even at the Soul Refining Realm. However, the higher the cultivation level, the smaller the probability.

The probability of Han Li being at the Soul Refining Realm is almost nonexistent. Even if Han Li really had an adventure, it would be impossible for him to cultivate from the first level of the Sea Opening Realm to the Soul Refining Realm in just twenty years.

Although they thought it was unlikely, what if it was true?

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi didn't have any wishful thinking. That's why they joined forces and were very cautious, worried that Han Li might have set up an ambush.

Even if Han Li was only at the early stage of the Soul Refining Realm, he couldn't defeat them when they joined forces.

On Mount Wanxia.

Han Li stood at the top of the mountain, his green robe fluttering. He looked at the magnificent scenery in front of him and couldn't help but exclaim, "Glory breaks through the layers of clouds, the mountains and rivers are still unparalleled."

He stood tall on the mountaintop, looking out at one peak after another towering into the sky, with lush mountains and playful white clouds chasing each other.

At the end of his vision, there was a setting sun, releasing a brilliant glow, piercing through countless layers of clouds, illuminating the beautiful mountains and rivers.

Looking at this beautiful scenery, Han Li couldn't help but feel his heart open up, enjoying this rare sight.

Suddenly, Han Li frowned and felt two powerful auras intruding into his spiritual sense.

When he first broke through to the Soul Refining Realm, his spiritual sense could cover a radius of two hundred miles. Now that he had reached the seventh level of the Soul Refining Realm, his spiritual sense could directly cover a radius of a thousand miles.

Maximizing the coverage was very mentally exhausting and also put a burden on the soul. It was also prone to mistakes, so Han Li's spiritual sense only covered a radius of two hundred miles.

Within this radius of two hundred miles, even if a strong cultivator at the Soul Refining Realm sneaked in, he would easily detect it. Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi's spiritual senses were far less powerful than Han Li's, so they hadn't even noticed their own exposed whereabouts.

"They've finally arrived."

Han Li didn't turn around, but a smile appeared on his face.

He had already made all the preparations and was just waiting for these two fish to take the bait.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi did indeed attach great importance to the Life-Preserving Furnace. Han Li had only revealed his whereabouts yesterday evening, and the two women had rushed over this afternoon. Their speed was indeed fast.

Han Li closely monitored the two women with his spiritual sense. Seeing them flying leisurely but with a cautious expression, he furrowed his brows.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi had indeed sensed something. Even though they thought his cultivation level was low, they remained cautious and didn't rush to Mount Wanxia.

As they flew along the way, they seemed relaxed and at ease, but in reality, they remained on guard, fearing that a powerful cultivator might ambush them halfway.

What they were most worried about was that Han Li had handed over the Life-Preserving Furnace to Tianxuan Mountain and set up a trap with the strong cultivators of Tianxuan Mountain.

Of course, both women thought this possibility was very small, just as small as the probability of Han Li being at the Soul Refining Realm, so small that it was almost impossible.

They had gathered information about Han Li and knew that the Life-Preserving Furnace was such a precious treasure that Han Li would never give it to Tianxuan Mountain. Instead, he would keep it in the Han family.

Who made Han Li value the Han family so much?

With the Life-Preserving Furnace, the Han family had a great opportunity to develop into a new power in the Canghai Sect, or at the very least, a force on the level of Tianxuan Mountain.
