Shanze Region is located in the southern part of the entire Demon Realm, adjacent to the Southern Wilderness Region. It is a vast area with many mountains and swamps.

Dongshan City is an inconspicuous border town within Shanze Region, standing at the foot of a mountain called Dongwang Mountain, facing a large lake called Feng Lake with a radius of thousands of miles to the west. Backed by the mountain and facing the water, the scenery is quite unique.

Every morning, when the rising sun shines on Feng Lake, rolling Demonic Qi rises with it. A unique scene occurs where the golden light of the early sun floats above the dark Demonic Qi and rises to the same level as the Dongshan city walls.

Dongwang Mountain is only a thousand feet high, but the view is excellent, making it the best place to observe the strange phenomenon of golden light and Demonic Qi from afar.

Many Demon cultivators can resonate their inner Demonic Qi by observing this scene, which can promote cultivation to a certain extent. Therefore, almost every morning, a large number of low-level Demon cultivators gather on the mountain top.

On this day, as the strange phenomenon within the lake had just disappeared, the cultivators on the top of Dongwang Mountain began to fly away one after another.

An old man with a hunched back wearing a gray robe, and a tall youth with a dull expression, walked slowly one after the other along the stone steps on the mountain top towards the mountainside.

The tall youth looked dull and foolish, but his eyes contained restrained divine light, clear to the extreme.

"Brother Shi, why did you specifically want to see this strange Demonic Qi phenomenon? With your current cultivation level, you shouldn't care about that little bit of cultivation benefit, right?" he asked, looking at the hunched old man walking ahead with his hands behind his back.

"Brother Li is thinking too much. I've just been hiding and running around these past few days, and I've been feeling really depressed. Knowing that there is such a scene here, I thought I'd come take a look, just to relax," the hunched old man stopped and said, looking back.

The two were none other than Shi Chuan Kong and Han Li, disguised.

"Actually, I've been wondering all this time why Tian Yue Hou let us go and reminded us not to go to Chu Yu City?" Han Li, who had transformed into the tall youth, asked.

"To be honest, I don't know either. I almost couldn't help but fight back then... Maybe it has something to do with Third Brother. I know very well that with my own weight, he definitely wouldn't do this for me," Shi Chuan Kong shook his head and said.

"It's really hard for him. He has to pretend to attack us on the outside, and secretly let us go, and he even has to give up a teleportation hall. The loss is not small," Han Li said with a smile.

"But his reminder made me understand one thing. Not only can't we go to Chu Yu City, but we can't go to any city in any region that has a direct teleportation array to Yeyang City, right?" Shi Chuan Kong suddenly said seriously.

"That's right. Everyone thinks we are eager to return to Yeyang City, so they will definitely be making preparations in these cities. Once we show up, we will inevitably be targeted. If another Grand Luo realm cultivator comes, we really won't be able to handle it," Han Li nodded and said.

"So, the more we are in this situation, the more we can't rush. We can only use the teleportation arrays between the regions to teleport step by step, to gradually approach Yeyang City," Shi Chuan Kong said with a bitter smile.

"This way, although the time it takes will definitely be longer, there are also many benefits. After all, there are many cities between the regions, and there are too many choices for teleportation between them. No one can predict which city we will choose to teleport to. This protects our safety to a great extent," Han Li said thoughtfully.

"It's just that the matter I promised Brother Li will have to be postponed, and Brother Li, your time to return to the Immortal Realm will also have to be delayed," Shi Chuan Kong said with a slightly apologetic expression.

"It doesn't matter. If possible, let's stay on this Dongwang Mountain for a while. I have some things to take care of, and then we can start our journey. What do you think?" Han Li waved his hand, hesitated slightly, and then said.

"Of course. We'll just wait for Brother Li to finish his business before we set off," Shi Chuan Kong said with a smile.

The two walked and talked, going down the winding path on the mountain, and soon came to a hidden cliff on the mountainside.

As they approached, Shi Chuan Kong waved his hand, and a layer of spatial barrier slowly dissipated, revealing two newly excavated cave dwellings next to each other.

The two said goodbye to each other and returned to their respective cave dwellings.

Entering the cave dwelling, Han Li waved his hand, and a silver light gate appeared. He stepped into it, and his figure appeared outside the gate of the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Crab Daoist had been waiting at the gate. When he saw Han Li coming, he quickly greeted him.

"Fellow Daoist Han, this batch of Dao Soldiers in the garden is already mature. I'm temporarily suppressing them with the power of the formation, waiting for you to deal with them," Crab Daoist said.

"Thank you for your trouble," Han Li cupped his fist slightly and walked quickly into the garden.

The two passed through the fields in the medicine garden and soon arrived at the area where the Dao Soldiers were planted. From afar, they could hear bursts of suppressed lightning crackling.

As they approached, Han Li saw that the area originally arranged with Thunder Marsh Breathing Soil, the muddy purple swamp, was almost dry. Large patches of the ground had formed into armor-like dry clods, and the lightning power contained within had been exhausted.

In stark contrast, the Dao Soldier Tree standing in the middle of it was shrouded in a layer of purplish-red light. On the dense and full bean pods hanging from the branches, there were extremely fine purple electric threads jumping back and forth, crackling.

Compared to the last time the Dao Soldiers matured, the number of bean pods produced on the tree this time was significantly more, and the aura contained within was also significantly stronger.

This scene made Han Li feel a sense of joy.

The last time in the Ten Sorrows Mountain Range, all the Dao Soldiers were consumed to help him protect the Dharma. This time, it was just right to make up for it.

"Fellow Daoist Crab, remove the formation. It's time to harvest," Han Li took a deep breath and said with a smile.

Crab Daoist nodded, then pinched a magic formula and waved it forward.

A flash of golden light appeared on the ground around the Dao Soldier Tree, and seven or eight golden formation plates immediately broke out of the ground and flew back into Crab Daoist's hands.

A transparent light curtain then disappeared from the tree trunk, and the sound of lightning, which was not very loud before, suddenly soared into bursts of roaring sounds. A dazzling purple light also began to expand in all directions.

Seeing this, Han Li was slightly surprised. He waved his palm, and a cyan light flew out, condensing a layer of light curtain around the Dao Soldier Tree to prevent the purple electric light from spreading and damaging the other spiritual herbs in the medicine garden.

In the midst of the bursts of thunder, the Dao Soldier Tree withered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all the energy in the tree was distributed to all the bean seeds.

Accompanied by a burst of "crackling" sounds, the expanding purple electric light suddenly burst and scattered. Golden bean seeds, engraved with purple lightning patterns, shot out one after another, scattering in all directions like a goddess scattering flowers.

Seeing this, Han Li flipped his palm, and the verdant Profound Heaven Gourd immediately emerged.

He tilted the mouth of the gourd and patted the bottom of the gourd. A green vortex lit up at the mouth of the gourd, and the attraction force in the vortex pulled the beans in the sky, and they flew out and fell into the gourd.

Explosions continued in the spiritual medicine garden, lasting for half a stick of incense before it was completely quiet.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of bean seeds were collected into the Profound Heaven Gourd by Han Li.

He shook the gourd in his hand, and with the other hand, he twisted a golden mother bean the size of a broad bean. A trace of regret flashed in his eyes. This time, the Dao Soldier Tree only produced one mother bean.

Han Li's heart moved slightly, and a stream of Immortal Spiritual Power flowed into the bean seed from the fingers pinching the bean seed.

"Zizz"

The purple lightning patterns on the mother bean lit up, and a large amount of purple electric light shot out immediately, numbing his entire arm.

"The power of this purple lightning is not weak, and it seems to have retained some of the sticky properties of the Thunder Marsh Breathing Soil." Crab Daoist, who was on the side, frowned slightly as he saw this scene.

"That's right. I just don't know if there is a way to better utilize this property after refining it into Dao Soldiers," Han Li said.

"Fellow Daoist Han, I happen to know a 'Purple Extreme Trapping Thunder Formation' that may be more suitable for these Dao Soldiers than the 'Engraved Thunder Locking Essence Formation'. If you trust me, why not let me refine these Dao Soldiers?" Crab Daoist hesitated slightly before speaking.

"What's there to not trust? After I have cultivated them in the Profound Heaven Gourd for a period of time, I will hand them over to you for refining. You just need to list the materials needed for the formation," Han Li said with a smile.

Crab Daoist heard this, and didn't say anything more, just cupped his fist at Han Li.

"By the way, if you remember any other information about your master, remember to tell me. Since your master was once a person from the Demon Realm, and we are now in the Demon Realm, perhaps we can solve everything," Han Li added.

"I have been trying hard to recall these days, but there has been no progress," Crab Daoist shook his head and said helplessly.

"It doesn't matter. If nothing unexpected happens, we will stay in the Demon Realm for a while longer," Han Li nodded and said.

After the two chatted for a while, Han Li left the spiritual medicine garden and went to the bamboo building by the pond.

Han Li went up to the second floor. On the bed in the bedroom, Ti Hun was still asleep and didn't wake up.

The Purple Sun Warm Jade hanging above her head had been consumed a lot, and now there was only a thumb-sized piece left.

Although he knew it was useless, Han Li silently took out another piece of mid-grade Purple Sun Warm Jade, raised his hand and gently lifted it, placing it above Ti Hun's head.

Fortunately, although Ti Hun had not woken up, the aura fluctuations on her body were becoming more and more stable, which made Han Li feel a lot more relieved. However, he was at a loss for what to do about Ti Hun's current situation. He could only hope that it could be resolved smoothly when they reached Yeyang City.

But the road to Yeyang City was still long and arduous.

In addition to his eldest brother, Shi Zhanfeng, there was also his fifth sister, Shi Jingyan, who had sent assassins to kill Shi Chuan Kong. Who knew if there would be others in the future? The road to Yeyang City was destined to be full of turmoil.

Thinking of these things, Han Li couldn't help but frown.
