Han Li stayed in the secret room of this inn for nearly two years.

During this time, he occasionally went out a few times, each time disguising himself and taking a turn around the various shops in the city, paying attention to the outside world and the movements of the Immortal Palace, while also seeing if there were any spiritual materials worth purchasing.

Perhaps it was because the Black Wind Sea area was indeed too remote, so that no one from the Northern Cold Immortal Palace had yet appeared in Gu瀾 City. However, the changes that had occurred in the Candle Dragon Dao had spread here, becoming the most sensational event in the entire Northern Cold Immortal Territory in recent years.

Regarding this matter, Han Li naturally paid more attention to it. After learning that Hu Yan Daoren had not fallen into the hands of the Northern Cold Immortal Palace, he felt a sense of relief in his heart for some reason. He was just a little puzzled as to why the Immortal Palace had not issued an arrest warrant for him in the immortal inns of the Wild瀾 Continent.

In addition, Bai Li Daoren, one of the thirteen Golden Immortal Dao Lords of the Candle Dragon Dao, a half-step Grand Yi, also did not seem to have truly fallen into the hands of Xiao Jinhan.

Although this person had nothing to do with him, Han Li was happy to see it happen. After all, he was now also wanted by the Northern Cold Immortal Palace. It was naturally not a bad thing for someone to divert the Immortal Palace's attention.

One day, in the center of Gu澜 City.

The five-story white pagoda emitted a dazzling light, and a blue light pillar rose from the top of the pagoda, soaring into the sky with an astonishing momentum.

Many cultivators in the city were gathered around the white pagoda, watching the cultivators entering the pagoda with undisguised envy on their faces.

Those who could enter the pagoda were naturally those who had obtained the transmission qualification. It was said that in recent years, many cultivators had gained benefits from the Black Wind Sea area, which was the main reason why Gu瀾 City, a small city that had been newly built for only a hundred years, could be so prosperous now.

In the crowd, there was a white-faced scholar holding a folding fan, staring unblinkingly at the white pagoda, with no expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly, he stepped out of the crowd, closed the folding fan in his hand, and walked towards the white pagoda.

This person was none other than Han Li in disguise.

After entering the white pagoda and passing through a short corridor, a spacious hall of more than a hundred feet appeared in front of him. Two black-robed cultivators stood on the left and right sides of the hall entrance.

Han Li was familiar with the robes on the two of them. They were the attire of Black Wind Island.

"Please show your transmission token and proof of guarantee, Fellow Daoist." The gray-haired man on the left nodded slightly to Han Li and said in a calm tone.

Without saying a word, Han Li directly took out two items and handed them to this person.

The man took out a white jade tablet and shook it slightly. A white light emanated from it and enveloped the two items. The jade tablet flashed with crystal light, and two fist-sized golden runes appeared, flashing and disappearing.

"Fellow Daoist, please enter." The hunchbacked old man on the right said in a hoarse voice.

Han Li nodded slightly and stepped inside.

The hall was rectangular, with white jade floor tiles on the ground. The surrounding walls were engraved with dense runes, emitting bursts of milky white light, illuminating the entire hall.

In addition to several black-robed Black Wind Island cultivators, there were already more than twenty cultivators in various attires, quietly waiting in groups of two or three.

The arrival of Han Li did not attract much attention. Except for a few people who cast a glance, the rest ignored him.

Han Li's gaze seemed to casually sweep across the hall, while his footsteps did not stop as he walked to an empty corner and sat down cross-legged.

Although his expression was normal, his heart was slightly moved, because the white-clothed man who had concealed his cultivation and whom he had encountered when he first entered Gu瀾 City two years ago was standing less than ten feet away from him.

If that was all, he naturally wouldn't think too much about it. After all, it wasn't strange for a True Immortal to want to enter the Black Wind Sea area.

However, there were five or six other cultivators around this person. Although their clothes and appearances were different, without exception, they had all concealed their original True Immortal realm cultivation and were showing themselves as Body Integration stage cultivators. In particular, a middle-aged man who was closing his eyes to rest had sword-like eyebrows, a resolute aura, and was clearly a True Immortal realm late-stage cultivator, the highest cultivation level among those present besides himself.

Such a considerable force, collectively heading to the Black Wind Sea area, was a bit intriguing.

However, as long as these people didn't hinder him, and if it was none of his business, Han Li naturally wouldn't bother to interfere. He just became a little more wary of these people in his heart.

Time passed slowly.

About an hour later, more than ten more cultivators entered the hall.

"Hehe, sorry to keep everyone waiting. The time to activate the transmission array is almost here." As a clear voice rang out, a black-robed old man with a youthful face and white hair walked out from who knows where.

The crowd stirred, and many of those who were originally closing their eyes to adjust their breathing stood up.

Han Li naturally got up with the crowd and discovered that he had met this old man once before. He was the Loose Immortal known as "Old Yi".

"As you all probably know, things are different now than in the past. Before entering the Black Wind Sea area, please pass through this sensing array one by one." The white-haired old man swept his gaze over everyone and raised one hand, pinching a magic seal towards the empty space in front of him.

Buzz!

Several jade floor tiles on the ground between the old man and the others suddenly lit up with golden light. Golden runes flew out from them, intertwining and entwining until they quickly condensed into a golden, hazy circle of about ten feet in size.

Within the circle, clusters of golden light of various sizes could be vaguely seen scurrying and jumping, making "hissing" sounds.

A flash of blue light disappeared in Han Li's eyes. He found that each of these light clusters was composed of countless golden seal characters, which looked mysterious and unusual. His expression did not change, but his heart sank.

Most of the cultivators present seemed to have known about the scene that appeared in front of them for a long time. Except for a few people who looked surprised and discussed it in a low voice with the people around them, the rest began to pass through the circle one by one.

Whenever someone passed through the circle, the golden light clusters around the circle would tremble slightly and undergo some changes.

The white-haired old man stared at the circle from beginning to end, as if observing something.

Before long, more than ten people had passed through the circle and entered the transmission array. Even the white-clothed cultivator who had caught Han Li's attention earlier had safely passed through the circle. So far, there had been no anomalies.

"This Fellow Daoist, I am Luo Shi from Wumeng Island. I left the Black Wind Sea area hundreds of years ago due to matters within my clan. It seems that this link wasn't here back then. Could it be that something happened in the Black Wind Sea area in recent years?" Han Li did not step forward immediately, but asked a purple-haired young woman in the Body Integration stage beside him in a low voice.

Judging from the clothes and attire of this person, she should be a cultivator from a island called Nan Li Island in the Black Wind Sea area. He remembered that this island also belonged to the Black Wind Island forces.

"Fellow Daoist, you have been gone for so many years, it's normal that you don't know. This is a new rule set by Island Master Lu a hundred years ago. I'm not very clear about the specifics. It seems to be related to an evil cultivator." The purple-haired young woman was about to step towards the circle when she heard this, glanced at Han Li, and explained.

"I see. Thank you for clearing up my confusion, Fellow Daoist." Han Li said with a smile, cupping his hands.

The purple-haired young woman casually waved her hand, then got up and walked forward.

"An evil cultivator..." Han Li glanced at the golden circle again, and his mind quickly turned.

Regarding the "evil cultivator" mentioned by the young woman, he subconsciously thought of himself. After all, he had killed Tao Yu, a Golden Immortal with a strong background, with his True Immortal realm cultivation. It was probably possible that he had been defined as an evil cultivator by the Northern Cold Immortal Palace.

But soon, he denied his idea.

First of all, he had never seemed to have heard of any connection between Black Wind Island and the Northern Cold Immortal Palace. But from the fact that this identity probing restriction had existed a hundred years ago, it could be known that this matter should have nothing to do with him. After all, a hundred years ago, he was still well in Candle Dragon Dao and had not done anything out of line.

In addition, the white-clothed cultivator who had concealed his cultivation did not cause any reaction from this array. It seemed that the person who set up this restriction was not concerned about the true cultivation of the cultivators.

During the time that Han Li hesitated, the cultivators present passed through the golden magic array one by one, and there were very few people left around. The other True Immortals who had concealed their cultivation were already in the transmission array.

He took a light breath, stepped forward, and stepped into the golden circle.

The golden light clusters around the circle trembled, and then a gentle force suddenly enveloped his body, as if streams of water were flowing up and down.

Han Li's heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained normal as he continued to move forward.

One step!

Two steps!

Three steps!

The white-haired old man stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the golden magic array with a solemn expression.

The golden circle was not large. Han Li walked out four or five steps and crossed it without any abnormalities appearing.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, the remaining few cultivators also quickly passed through the sensing magic array without any abnormal situations.

Seeing this, the white-haired old man nodded, and with a wave of one hand, he removed the golden circle. With a wave of the other sleeve, streaks of blue light shot out, landing on Han Li and the others, revealing blue talismans.

In the next moment, Han Li only felt that the transmission array under his feet shone brightly, and then everything in front of him was filled with white light.

After a long time, his body suddenly sank and stabilized, and the scenery in front of him returned to clarity. He appeared in a circular hall.

Han Li still had some impression of this place. It was the Heavenly Star Pagoda on Black Wind Island back then.

"Fellow Daoists, welcome to the Black Wind Sea area." A hunchbacked old woman wearing a black robe was standing in front of the magic array, saying with a smile.

Everyone cupped their hands to the hunchbacked old woman and then left the transmission array one after another, walking towards a circular doorway not far away.

Han Li mixed in with the crowd and walked forward slowly.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something and paused slightly.

Just now, he swept his peripheral vision and found that the white-clothed cultivator did not go with the crowd. Instead, after walking out of the transmission magic array, he stopped in the hall.

Like him, the few True Immortal realm cultivators who had also concealed their cultivation remained in place.

The hunchbacked old woman did not seem to say anything about this.

This made Han Li feel a little more curious in his heart.
