“I owe both of you a debt of gratitude for this. My wish has come true.”

“I, Han Yi, acknowledge this kindness and will certainly repay it in days to come.”

Han Yi was concise in his speech. After bidding farewell to Li Zhengyang and Lu Nan, he teleported away.

But instead of proceeding with his original plan to go to the Righteous Palace or Profound Treasure Immortal Palace, he returned to No. 826 Mansion.

Having activated the two guardian arrays to their utmost state, Han Yi took a deep breath in the quiet chamber before taking out two ax-like weapons.

Previously in the Immortal Art Palace Arsenal, because of that black giant ax causing an anomaly in his Divine Force, when Han Yi checked the Half-immortal item embryo afterward, he dared not stimulate his Divine Force, using only mana to probe.

At this moment.

The two ax-like weapons were placed before him, and naturally, the black giant ax that incited the fluctuations in Divine Force caught Han Yi’s first glance.

The ax handle was rather long, about one meter eighty in length, and the ax head was broad and thick, yet not sharp. At a casual glance, the ax blade seemed dull and unsharpened.

In terms of shape, it was indeed gigantic among ax-like weapons.

The material of the giant ax appeared to be of mineral rather than metal, with the handle and the head not being separate, but unified as a whole.

In simple terms, the giant ax looked as though a craftsman had hewn it from a single massive block of ore.

The Divine Force within Han Yi’s Divine Aperture surged out, spreading to his hands. Then, he gently gripped the black ax handle.

It felt ice cold to the touch, as if it truly were made of stone material.

Whoosh.

His Divine Force suddenly became restless, even transforming directly into the state of burning divine fire, and swiftly expanded, enveloping the black giant ax.

Fortune favors the spirited, and Han Yi immediately began the Divine Fire Seven Refinements.

Divine Force continued to spread, and divine fire kept pouring into the giant ax.

Four months later, the divine fire on the surface of the giant ax gradually subsided, disappearing entirely into its surface.

Han Yi, holding the giant ax, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

The extinguished divine fire flared up again, and this time, it surged to the extreme peak immediately.

The Divine Force vibrated in a special pattern as it fused within the ax, turning it into a fiery ax in its entirety.

Divine Fire technique, ninth form: Divine Fire Giant Ax.

All of a sudden, Han Yi in the main hall felt a sinking sensation, and the floor tiles below his feet cracked with a snapping sound, spreading like spider webs in all directions. He felt the weight of the giant ax in his hands unexpectedly increase by hundreds of times. To counterbalance this immense weight, his body began to stimulate the Divine Fire Battle Body, rapidly expanding as a result.

However, in the blink of an eye, Han Yi quickly withdrew his Divine Force, and his stature shrank back down, the weight of the giant ax in his hand beginning to decrease as well.

He realized that he was in his own mansion and couldn’t practice the ninth form of the divine fire there; if he actually damaged the place, he would have to rebuild it.

For now, he had to stop here.

Han Yi set down the giant ax, his face showing a mixture of surprise and confusion.

He was thrilled that the giant ax attracted his Divine Force, and after four months of Divine Fire Seven Refinements, it was finally fully imbued by him.

Moreover, deploying the ninth form of divine fire, the Divine Fire Giant Ax, with this giant ax—though it was a mere trial and far from releasing its full power—the projected might was undoubtedly unexpectedly powerful.

As for his confusion, it revolved around the origins of the black giant ax.

An Ancient God Weapon?

Han Yi wasn’t sure.

Although he had been in contact with the Ancient God System since entering the World of Gods and Demons and was aware of the existence of Ancient God Weapons, he only had superficial knowledge of the true Ancient Gods, those from the Primordial Realm or the Ancient Gods of the sixth tier within the Daluo Immortal Realm. He remained at the conceptual stage and had never seen an Ancient God Weapon, nor was he familiar with the extent of might they could exert.

Besides, he did not fully understand the giant ax that could induce an unusual reaction in his Divine Force and completely withstand his Divine Power and Divine Art.

Therefore, he was uncertain whether this giant ax was indeed an Ancient God Weapon.

However, acquiring this black giant ax was an unexpected delight.

Next, he had intended to refine the silver-colored Half-immortal item embryo as a backup for the ninth form of divine fire, but after some consideration, he decided to store it in his Qiankun Ring for the time being. After tidying up a bit, he left the mansion and teleported to the Profound Treasure Palace.

In fact, when Han Yi left his retreat half a year ago, he had originally planned four things. With the carrier for the Divine Fire Giant Ax secured, and the task of killing Dai Zhe put on hold for the moment, what came next were the Righteous Immortal Envoy task and seeking information in the Profound Treasure Palace.

Of these two tasks, personally, seeking information in the Profound Treasure Palace was more significant to him.

Thus, he had specifically set aside two months for the Profound Treasure Palace. As for the Immortal Envoy task, it would have to wait until he returned from the Immortal Spirit Realm.

The Profound Treasure Palace had a total of ninety-nine levels, and the ninth level was the highest point that cultivators below the status of True Immortals could reach.

More than eighty years had passed since Han Yi last visited the Profound Treasure Palace. At that time, he was at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul and could only ascend to the fourth level.

But now, in terms of Realm, he had reached the Peak of Spirit Transformation, and in terms of status, he had also taken on the role of a First Grade Immortal Envoy.

Han Yi headed straight for the higher levels, breezing through the fifth, sixth, and seventh without any suspense, and even the eighth level proved easy to pass. To his surprise, the ninth level still allowed passage without obstruction.

He attempted to go to the tenth level, and, just as he expected, he was blocked by an invisible layer of Spirit Light and sent back.

After returning to the ninth level, Han Yi began to look through the records. He chose to start directly from the ninth level because, according to the setup of the Profound Treasure Palace, the higher the level, the more important the secrets and resources involved.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye.

Two months later, Han Yi walked out of the Profound Treasure Palace, his eyes flickering with light, his doubts not abated but increased. He had looked through the records of the ninth level and found that most of the issues he was most concerned about lacked comprehensive information.

This was especially true regarding the Chaotic Demon Area and the Ancient Gods.

He thought about it and realized that the issues he was focusing on were not common and that even ordinary Immortals might not be aware of them. It was to be expected that the ninth level would not have them.

The doubts in Han Yi’s eyes gradually subsided.

However, these two months were not entirely fruitless; he had browsed through most of the records on the eighth and ninth levels. This allowed him to understand the Immortal Realm, the invasion of the Wisdom Realm, Daluo, and the nine worlds that had split from the Ancient World far more thoroughly than before.

Of course, once he reached the eighth or ninth level, the cost in points needed to view each Ancient God Jade Butterfly archive was not small.

Fortunately, Han Yi’s previous Immortal Mansion points were around ten thousand.

In these two months, he had spent over eight thousand of them, leaving only about three thousand.

But he didn’t mind; points could be earned again, but knowledge was priceless and could lead him to make the most correct decisions at crucial moments.

After leaving the Profound Treasure Palace, Han Yi teleported to Jiu Chuan Plaza, where after waiting two hours, he met up with Li Zhengyang and Lu Nan.

Then, other cultivators began to arrive one after another. Han Yi noticed that all the arriving cultivators were Half-Immortals, and except for two seasoned Half-Immortals, the rest were all at the Peak Half-Immortal level.

Furthermore, Han Yi discovered another commonality: all fifteen people present were Immortal Envoys of the Righteous Palace.

The Immortal Envoys of the Righteous Palace indeed also referred to themselves as a circle.

When Li Zhengyang introduced Han Yi, the others cast their gazes his way, some nodding in greeting, their attitudes varying slightly.

Han Yi was aware that it was due to his extraordinary performance in the Immortal Envoy Assessment ten years ago, which was known to all the Immortal Envoys, that they had such attitudes towards him.

He responded with a cupped-fist salute to each, by way of greeting.

Speaking of which.

In the Age Candle Immortal Court, there were not few Half-Immortal-level cultivators, but not many could join the Immortal Envoys of the Righteous Palace. Therefore, of the fourteen cultivators present, most of them knew each other. Only Han Yi was a new face, but with his reputation preceding him, the other cultivators held no other opinion about him.

Afterwards.

The fifteen of them stepped onto a Cross-realm Teleportation Array around the plaza. As they disappeared in the Spirit Light, when they reappeared, they had arrived at an Immortal City.

Lin’an Immortal City.

This Immortal City was a large one and was the core Immortal City of Lin’an Immortal Territory, the westernmost Immortal Domain of the Age Candle Immortal Court.

And Lin’an Immortal City, including its surrounding territory, which covered most of the Lin’an Immortal Territory, all belonged to one Dojo.

Lin’an Dojo.

This Dojo was owned by the Lin’an Immortal Monarch, who ranked seventh among the Immortal Monarchs of the Age Candle Immortal Court, with a mighty reputation, being a Peak Immortal Monarch.

They were headed to a perilous area to the west of Lin’an Immortal Territory.

After arriving at Lin’an Immortal City, the fifteen of them took a Cross-city Teleportation Array to Anxi Immortal City at the far west.

Then, leaving Anxi Immortal City, they rode a Half-Immortal Item Immortal Boat heading west.

Three days later, the Immortal Boat finally stopped. The cultivators disembarked, looking ahead with slightly solemn expressions.

Han Yi did the same.

In front of him, a hundred miles away.

Thunder tore through the cloud layer, booming down from the fractured heavens, rampaging and flashing. Thunder beasts were vaguely visible, lurking within the rumbling mists.

Intersecting bolts of deep red lightning penetrated the dense darkness, shooting out toward all directions, casting a terrifying territory akin to the end of the world.

This was indeed a perilous place, the Deep Red Thunder Prison.
