Chapter 72: Relaxation

Fengyang Mansion, Lingjun City.

Han Li was lying on the lawn in the backyard, surrounded by a group of stunning beauties. Everyone looked up at the sky, observing the twilight and the setting sun.

As the evening approached and the sky grew darker, the evening glow, entrusted by the night, hung in the sky, captivating the hearts and souls of those who beheld it.

"Darling, which is more beautiful, twilight or the setting sun?" Li Mingmeng's clear and ethereal voice rang out.

Qiu Yueyao, Lin Yiwu, Chu Yumeng, and other concubines also looked towards Han Li, wanting to know his answer.

Han Li smiled and said, "The sunset is particularly gentle, while twilight is all about romance."

"Darling, you have such literary talent," Liu Yuexin praised.

"In my opinion, the sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is only near twilight," Lin Yiyin blinked her sapphire-like eyes.

"I see the sky in the morning and the clouds in the evening, whether I'm walking or sitting, I think of you," Li Mingmeng looked at Han Li with deep affection.

"..."

Qiu Yueyao, Qin Buhui, and other concubines also expressed their opinions, gaining the agreement of the other women.

"Darling, how about we play a game?" the lively and active Chu Yumeng came to Han Li's side and vigorously shook his right hand.

"What kind of game?" Han Li looked at her indulgently.

"Eagle Catches Chicks," Chu Yumeng said with a smile.

Han Li shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's too childish, let's not play."

"It's not the kind you're thinking of," Chu Yumeng pouted.

"What kind is it then?" Han Li was puzzled. Were there many different versions of Eagle Catches Chicks?

"Darling, you play the eagle, and we'll be the chicks. You have to catch us with your eyes blindfolded, no cheating, and the entire lawn is the playing area."

"Darling, you've always wanted to play a big game, right? Today, for every chick you catch, there will be one person to play the game with you," Chu Yumeng said excitedly, raising her small fist.

Han Li looked at Liu Yuexin, Li Mingmeng, Qiu Yueyao, Lin Yiyin, and the other concubines. They all nodded, obviously having made prior arrangements.

"Alright," Han Li's lips curved into a smile.

It should be noted that he was a peak Soul Refining cultivator, with heightened senses. Even without using his spiritual sense, he could cover the entire lawn, perceiving every detail. Nothing could escape his notice.

As for whether this was cheating?

Of course not!

He wouldn't remove the blindfold, and he would catch them solely based on his abilities. How could that be considered cheating?

The next day,

In the chess garden, Han Li lay on the armchair, feeling a bit sore and lacking energy.

He could only say that it was fortunate his sleeping quarters were spacious.

A gentle breeze brushed his face, and Han Li unknowingly fell asleep. When a system prompt sounded in his mind, he woke up abruptly.

He opened the system panel to check and immediately revealed a delighted expression, devoid of fatigue.

"You have reached a total of eighty descendants with cultivation aptitude. You gain twenty years of cultivation, one seventh-grade longevity pill, and thirty years of alchemy experience."

"Very good."

Another twenty years of cultivation! He had accumulated over sixty-five years of cultivation, bringing him one step closer to breaking through to the Empty Void Realm.

Looking at the thirty years of alchemy experience, Han Li's eyes gleamed with excitement. He chose to receive it directly and spent some time absorbing it.

After absorbing it, Han Li transformed into a top-tier seventh-grade alchemist.

If he were to gain another thirty years of alchemy experience, he would be promoted to a sixth-grade alchemist. Then, he could start refining the Transcendence Pill that he had long coveted.

The "Rebirth Pill" is a special fourth-grade pill formula, but it only requires the skill level of a sixth-grade alchemist to refine it. He is not far from achieving this step.

Over the years, he has secretly collected most of the materials for the Rebirth Pill, but they are mostly auxiliary materials. There are three main materials in total: Wash Marrow Grass, Rebirth Flower, and Vermilion Fruit.

Currently, he has only collected one type, which is the Vermilion Fruit. There is still no news about the other two main materials.

The Vermilion Fruit is a relatively precious medicinal herb. Depending on the year, it can be classified as a spiritual medicine or a treasure medicine. The older the year, the higher its value, and it can help people improve their cultivation.

The Rebirth Pill requires Vermilion Fruits that are fifty years old. This year of Vermilion Fruit is only a medium-grade spiritual medicine and is not considered very precious, which is why he was able to buy quite a few.

When Han Li saw this pill formula, he was shocked. All the medicinal herbs cannot improve one's aptitude; they each have their own functions. For example, the Vermilion Fruit can enhance cultivation, Wash Marrow Grass can cleanse the essence and marrow, and the Rebirth Flower can transform one's body, and so on.

But when mixed in certain proportions and refined into a pill, it has the miraculous effect of improving aptitude.

It must be said that the cultivator who created this pill formula is truly a genius in alchemy.

After sighing, Han Li stood up and decided not to return to his residence. He had been in the Han Mansion for too long and wanted to go out and relax.

Anyway, he had the ability to travel thousands of miles in a single step with his Gale Steps technique, and he didn't plan to go too far.

Immediately, Han Li took a step and left the Han Mansion, leaving Lingjun City without anyone knowing.

In the next instant, Han Li had already appeared 445 miles away. This was the location he had locked onto with his spiritual sense, the place he intended to relax.

This was a beautiful place with scenery similar to Guilin. The scenery was incredibly beautiful and perfect for relaxation.

Han Li, dressed in luxurious clothing, stood on the mountaintop with his hands behind his back, quietly gazing at the lush mountains and the rivers in the valleys.

On both sides of the river, there were the sounds of birds, beasts, and insects, melodious and continuous. In the river, there were fishing boats with fishermen rowing and singing to each other.

When the sunlight shone down, the fishing boats breaking through the waves created a stunning scene. The water behind the fishing boats turned golden, shining with brilliant radiance.

Han Li was astonished and thought of a famous poem from his previous life, blurting out:

"The floating light leaps and turns to gold, the still shadow sinks like jade. The fishermen's songs answer each other, such joy is beyond measure."

On the other side,

On a low hill, a figure appeared, resembling a celestial immortal.

She glanced at the hill beneath her feet, and her figure disappeared. When she reappeared, she was already on a light boat in the sky.

After completing her mission, the heavy burden on her heart was lifted, and Zi Miaozhen felt a sense of ease and contentment.

After some thought, she released her divine sense, intending to explore whether the legend was true or not.

Zi Miaozhen's divine sense easily covered the entire Fengyang Mansion. She saw the broken Yuanyuan Mountain and witnessed Han Li's admiration and the words he blurted out.

Although Han Li was at the peak of the Soul Refining realm, he was nothing in her eyes. It was only a few words he blurted out and the beautiful scenery that caught her slight attention.

Zi Miaozhen's divine sense rushed into Yuanyuan Mountain, exploring its secrets. After a while, she discovered its hidden secrets, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"The legend is actually true."

Five hundred years ago, she had explored it and found nothing. But after Yuanyuan Mountain broke apart, some of its secrets were revealed and couldn't be hidden from her.

Zi Miaozhen shifted her gaze and looked at the Left Prime Minister's Mansion in the Great Qian Imperial Capital. She saw a beautiful woman inside and whispered, "Interesting."

If she had discovered it five hundred years ago, she would have definitely taken away the hidden treasures in Yuanyuan Mountain. But now, it was of no use to her, and Zi Miaozhen didn't care.

With a thought, the light boat soared into the sky, leaving Leizhou, leaving the Great Qian Imperial Capital, and even leaving the Primordial Spirit State.

Zi Miaozhen changed her posture and lay on the light boat. A wine jug appeared in her jade hand, and she took a sip.

The light boat sailed out of the Primordial Spirit State, reentering the Northern Sea, heading back to where she came from.

When she returned to the White Emperor City, it was already nightfall. The starry sky was brilliant, and Zi Miaozhen's celestial immortal voice sounded at the right time.

"Not knowing the sky is in the water when drunk, the boat is filled with dreams under the starry river."

Zi Miaozhen's journey for the day perfectly matched the description in her poem.
