Inside a small courtyard.

Han Li flicked his fingers in quick succession, sending streaks of cyan light flying out. These were cyan array flags, which landed around the courtyard and vanished in a flash. Immediately, a faint cyan light curtain shimmered into existence, enveloping the entire small courtyard.

After completing all of this, he sat down cross-legged on the spot and closed his eyes to regulate his breathing.

As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the night sky revealed twinkling stars.

Han Li opened his eyes, looked up at the starry sky, and then flipped his hand to take out a medicinal pill and swallowed it. He took a deep breath, and the Little Dipper Star Yuan Skill began to circulate within his body. Seven blue, hazy star patterns appeared on his chest and abdomen.

As streams of starlight power gathered from the night sky, forming seven pillars of starlight descending from the sky and entering his body, his somewhat pale complexion slowly recovered.

The time of one night passed in the blink of an eye.

At dawn, Han Li opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

At this moment, not only had the fatigue of his physical body been swept away, but even the damage caused by passing through the interface gap had been completely restored.

After stretching his body, he turned and walked towards a side room in the courtyard. Before long, he was standing inside the room.

The space here was not large, only about seven or eight zhang in size. Besides a green bamboo cabinet and a few sandalwood tables and chairs on both sides, there was only a futon in the center. However, everything was clean and tidy, appearing spotless.

Han Li sat directly cross-legged on the futon, flipped his hand, and took out a jade box. After opening it, a yellow walnut was placed inside.

The surface of the walnut had patterns that vaguely formed a human face, and it exuded astonishing earth-attribute spiritual energy fluctuations. It was the fruit from the strange walnut tree he had obtained in that mysterious bubble earlier.

He had not carefully examined it before due to the rush, but now he finally had the time to ponder it properly.

He immediately released his spiritual sense, probing into the walnut to examine it carefully.

The result of this examination caused him to be startled.

The earth-attribute spiritual energy contained within had reached a terrifying level, but it was compressed to the extreme and wrapped within the entire fruit.

Due to the Palm Heaven Bottle, Han Li had quite a bit of experience in identifying various spiritual herbs and materials, especially in judging medicinal age.

Although he did not recognize this walnut, to make the spiritual energy contained within reach such a level, it would have to be at least a hundred thousand years old.

However, this alone did not seem to be enough to make two True Immortal-level demon beasts fight over it so fiercely.

Thinking this in his heart, Han Li continued to carefully probe every inch of the walnut with his spiritual sense.

"Eh!"

After probing more than a dozen times, he finally discovered a trace of strangeness.

The extremely dense earth-attribute spiritual energy inside the walnut seemed chaotic and disordered, like waves rising and falling, but there was some kind of regularity hidden within.

It seemed that every once in a while, these spiritual energy fluctuations would present a rather strange state of interlaced fusion, and a faint, special aura would emanate from this fluctuation.

"Could this be..." Han Li's heart skipped a beat.

This special aura seemed somewhat similar to the power of laws, but not quite the same.

He examined it carefully for a while, but still couldn't be sure.

After pondering slightly, he flipped his hand and took out a wooden box.

After opening the box, a yellow little person appeared inside, with several talismans attached to its body. It was the Nascent Soul of the one-eyed giant, the master of the mysterious bubble space. Its single eye was half-open and half-closed, looking somewhat dull.

Han Li grabbed the Nascent Soul with one hand, and streaks of black light emerged from his fingers, directly entering it.

Soul Searching!

To find out the secret of that strange human-faced walnut, naturally, the fastest way was to directly search the soul.

The giant Nascent Soul's originally wooden face showed some struggling expressions, and a layer of yellow light emerged from its body, flashing rapidly.

Han Li frowned slightly. There seemed to be some kind of strange power in this Nascent Soul, which tightly locked the soul, making it difficult for his spiritual sense to penetrate it.

He snorted coldly, and the black light in his hand shone brighter, gradually increasing the intensity of the soul search.

The yellow light on the Nascent Soul also suddenly brightened, flashing violently, and a painful scream appeared on its small face, but it was suppressed by the talismans and could not make a sound.

Han Li was slightly pleased in his heart. His divine sense had finally broken through the seal of that strange power on the Nascent Soul and touched the inside of the soul.

But at this moment, his face suddenly changed, and the surface of his skin was suddenly wrapped in a layer of translucent membrane.

Almost in the next moment, an incomparably dazzling yellow light burst out from the Nascent Soul, and then with a "boom," it turned into a ball of yellow scorching sun, submerging Han Li's figure.

When the yellow light subsided, turning into countless pale yellow streamers and scattering, Han Li's figure reappeared in place.

At this moment, he was unscathed, but his face was a little ugly.

He did not expect that the power on the one-eyed giant Nascent Soul was so overbearing. After being broken through by the power of divine sense, it immediately detonated itself, so that he could not explore much information at all. He only saw a few fragmented fragments of the giant's past. It seemed that every ten thousand years or so, he would swallow a human-faced walnut, which was of great help to his cultivation.

Han Li sighed softly and looked at the human-faced walnut for a moment before flipping his hand and putting it away.

Now it seems that he can only find another way to figure out the origin of this thing. He has just returned to the Immortal World and has more important things to deal with.

After calming his mind, he stood up and walked out of the small courtyard.

"Greetings, Senior Liu." Outside the small courtyard stood a man in Confucian robes, who was none other than Luo Feng.

"Clan Leader Luo, why are you here?" A trace of surprise flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he asked calmly.

"I came here to see if Senior is used to living here... By the way, these are some cultivation resources that this clan collected overnight according to Senior's requirements. Due to the urgent time, only part of them have been collected. Others will be sent to various places to collect as soon as possible. Please forgive Senior." Luo Feng said with a flattering expression, took out a black bracelet, and handed it over with both hands.

Han Li reached out and took it, scanning the inside of the bracelet with his spiritual sense, and nodded.

Seeing this, Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"You came at the right time. You should have a place like a library here. I want to look up some things." Han Li put away the bracelet and said.

"Yes, Senior Liu, please follow me." Luo Feng said quickly, and took the lead to fly towards the distance.

Han Li's figure rose into the sky and followed, flying into the air.

He turned his gaze around, and the impact of yesterday's battle had been repaired a lot, and the collapsed buildings had begun to be rebuilt.

In the deserted port on the distant island and in some surrounding towns, many mortals without magic power appeared.

The scope of the damage caused by yesterday's war was quite wide, but it did not have much impact on the towns of those mortals.

At this moment, the mortals in those towns and some monks gathered in one place and were performing a ceremony similar to worshiping the Umon Island Ancestral God statues.

"There are many mortals living on the various islands in the Black Sand Sea, under the protection of the monk families on each island. They all hid during yesterday's battle. Although the monks between the islands are constantly fighting, they generally do not attack mortals." Luo Feng noticed Han Li's gaze and explained.

Han Li nodded. The situation here reminded him of the Chaotic Star Sea back then.

After a while, the two arrived in front of a large, two-story pavilion building.

"Ancestor God!"

"Clan Leader!"

Several Void Refinement Stage monks guarded the pavilion. Seeing Luo Feng and Han Li landing, they were startled and hurried over to salute, their expressions extremely respectful.

Luo Feng ignored the others and led Han Li directly inside.

Inside the first floor of the library, rows of bookshelves looked orderly, with various books, scrolls, and jade slips placed on them.

Han Li glanced around and found that the scale of this library was not large, much smaller than the Cold Flame Sect's Scripture Pavilion.

"Senior, this clan is weak, and the number of collected classics is relatively small, making Senior laugh. This first floor is mainly for cultivation techniques and unofficial histories, and the second floor is for classics about some magical treasures and elixirs." Luo Feng said with a hint of apology on his face.

"It doesn't matter. I can be here alone. Umon Island is in ruins at the moment. Go and take care of your own business. You don't have to stay here with me." Han Li said indifferently.

"Yes."

Luo Feng was stunned, agreed, and turned to walk out of the pavilion.

His body flashed with light, and he was about to fly away, but his eyes moved, and he stopped, walked to the side of the library, and waited with his hands down.

Han Li slowly browsed between the bookshelves. With his powerful spiritual sense, the speed of reading the classics was naturally extremely fast.

The classics collected by Umon Island were quite messy and varied. The classics on the first floor were not much different from what Luo Feng said. They were all about the Black Wind Sea and some cultivation classics below the Mahayana Stage.

What Han Li wanted to investigate was information about the Earth Immortals, but there was very little information about immortals here.

However, hard work pays off. When he had almost turned over the entire first floor, he finally found a few old jade slips with some introductions to the Earth Immortal matter.

Half an hour later, Han Li put down the last jade slip and opened his eyes.

Although there was not much content in these jade slips, they finally gave him a relatively clear understanding of the Earth Immortals and Ancestral Gods.

The so-called Earth Immortals, as Luo Feng said before, are also a kind of immortals in this Immortal World, but their cultivation method is relatively special.

According to the records in the classics, Earth Immortals can rely on the power of faith of their believers to condense the power of laws.

However, this method of condensing the power of laws by relying on external force has great limitations. That is, Earth Immortals can only use the power of laws in the region where the faith belongs. Once they leave this area, the condensed power of laws will be almost completely ineffective.

Because it is necessary to condense the power of faith, all Earth Immortals will have a statue made of special materials to store and refine the power of faith, forming a unique Earth Incarnation of the Earth Immortal, and the power of this incarnation to use the power of laws is even stronger than the main body.

Under normal circumstances, the Earth Immortal's body will generally hide, and only the Earth Incarnation will act outside. Once this incarnation is destroyed, the Earth Immortal's body will also be severely damaged. In severe cases, it may even lose the power of laws that it uses, and all previous accumulations will be destroyed.
