A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Close to a month flew by in a flash.

The cultivators of Puppet City worked extremely quickly, and the main frame of the Star Falcon Flying Boat was already complete. It was still going to take some time before the boat's construction was fully completed, but at this stage, the restriction inscription process had to commence.

"Here are the blueprints for the Star Falcon Flying Boat. Take a look first, and I'll explain everything to you in detail after. All of you should be extremely honored. Under normal circumstances, you'd never get to see my blueprints," Mistress Liu Hua harrumphed coldly as he flipped a hand over to produce four jade slips.

After taking a jade slip from Mistress Liu Hua, Han Li injected his spiritual sense into it to find the blueprints of a bird-shaped flying boat inside. The design of the boat was accompanied by many annotations and star runes, forming a diagram of an extremely intricate starpower restriction.

Over the past month of learning from Mistress Liu Hua, Han Li had made some brilliant progress, and thanks to his prior experience in arrays and tool refinement, he was able to somewhat understand this starpower restriction.

This starpower restriction seems to be more geared toward summoning than defense, Han Li thought to himself after some observation.

As for the Xuanyuan Xing and the others, they were still not at a stage where they could interpret the function of the restriction.

After giving Han Li and the others roughly fifteen minutes to examine the blueprints, Mistress Liu Hua declared, "Alright, now, I'm going to tell you about all of the important points in this Star Falcon Restriction."

Han Li had already developed a rudimentary understanding of the restriction on his own, and after hearing what Mistress Liu Hua had to say, many of the questions that had stumped him were answered.

For some reason, Mistress Liu Hua displayed far more patience than he normally did on this occasion, answering all of the questions raised by the trio until they finally had a rough understanding of the restriction.

After all of the questions were answered, Mistress Liu Hua's patience was clearly running thin, and he shook his head in a disgruntled fashion before leading Han Li and the others to the flying boat.

The Puppet City cultivators were still busy at work, and a hint of enmity appeared in their eyes at the sight of Han Li's group, but they made no attempt to stop them.

Upon their arrival, they were approached by Zhuo Ge, who smiled as he greeted, "Welcome, fellow daoists. The main frame of the Star Falcon Flying Boat is already complete, so it's all up to you now."

Mistress Liu Hua nodded in response with a cold expression, then began delegating tasks to Han Li and the others.

After all of the tasks had been assigned, Han Li and the others sprang into action.

Despite Mistress Liu Hua's frosty reception, Zhuo Ge remained unbothered, and he turned to Han Li with a smile as he greeted, "We meet again, Fellow Daoist Li."

"Indeed. Looks like we'll be working together quite extensively from now on," Han Li replied with a nod.

"It's a pleasure working with you," Zhuo Ge said as his smile widened a little.

Even though they had only exchanged a few words, their brief conversation had attracted a lot of attention.

Aside from the two women that Han Li had saved earlier, all of the Puppet City cultivators were observing Han Li with cold animosity in their eyes, while Xuanyuan Xing and the others were also looking at him with tightly furrowed brows, and the atmosphere was starting to become a little tense.

"Li Feiyu, hurry up and get to work!" Mistress Liu Hua scolded with a displeased expression.

Han Li excused himself with Zhuo Ge, then began carrying out the tasks assigned to him, and only then was the tension in the air alleviated.

Meanwhile, Zhuo Ge promptly departed, while Han Li watched his departing figure from out of the corner of his eye.

He was planning to strike up a conversation with Zhuo Ge to see if he knew anything about Violet Spirit, but this was clearly not a good time for that.

With that in mind, he snuck a glance at the Puppet City campsite to discover a cluster of tents, all of which were crafted from some type of special material that could keep out spiritual sense, thereby preventing him from seeing what was inside.

A contemplative look appeared on Han Li's face as he considered his next move.

Han Li and the others worked day and night without rest, and after close to half a month, most of the restrictions on the main frame of the flying boat had finally been completed.

However, this didn't mean that Star Falcon Restriction was nearing completion. The restriction on the main frame was only a part of the overall restriction, and the majority of the work could only be carried out after construction on the body of the flying boat was completed.

On this day, Han Li had just used up the star fluid in his pen, and he was about to get some more when he heard the sound of footsteps ringing out from the Puppet City camp, accompanied by the sound of laughter.

The laughter was coming from E Kuai, and Han Li wasn't surprised to hear this.

Half a day ago, E Kuai had taken the other city lords to visit the Puppet City camp, and it was unclear what had been discussed between them, but judging from the sound of E Kuai's laughter, things had to have gone quite smoothly.

It didn't take long before E Kuai and the city lords appeared in Han Li's field of view, and they were accompanied by Sha Xin, Zhuo Ge, and several other Puppet City cultivators.

All of a sudden, Han Li's expression abruptly stiffened as he began intently scrutinizing a purple figure beside Sha Xin.

The figure was wearing a veiled bamboo hat that concealed their features, but judging from their figure, it appeared to be a woman.

Even though he could see the woman's face, he couldn't help but feel like her figure was rather similar to Violet Spirit's.

He was just about to find an excuse to go and take a closer look when the purple figure said something to Sha Xin, then made her way back into the Puppet City camp.

Han Li reflexively tried to chase after her, only for a golden-robed young man to suddenly appear before him, blocking his path.

"Outsiders are forbidden from entering our Puppet City's campsite!"

Han Li stopped in his tracks as his eyes narrowed slightly, but he then quickly composed himself as he said, "I have something that I need to speak to City Lord Chen Yang about, so I approached him without thinking once I saw that he had come out of the campsite. Please forgive me for..."

All of a sudden, his voice trailed off as he caught a clear glimpse of the golden-robed young man standing before him.

The man was identical in appearance to a normal human, but he was a lifeless puppet.

"Please step back," the golden-robed puppet said.

Han Li nodded in response, then returned to the Profound City campsite to retrieve a vial of star fluid, then made his way back toward the flying boat.

All of a sudden, Mistress Liu Hua appeared in his path with a displeased expression as he scolded, "Li Feiyu, stop getting distracted and focus on your duties! Don't make me have to speak to you again!"

"Rest assured, Senior Liu Hua, my part is almost done," Han Li replied in a respectful manner.

Mistress Liu Hua gave Han Li a parting glare before turning to depart.

Han Li had only just gotten back to work when Mistress Liu Hua's voice suddenly rang out in his mind through voice transmission.

"I can tell that you're trying to get closer to the people from Puppet City, but don't make it look so obvious! If you keep this, you're going to be labeled a traitor!"

Han Li raised his head slightly to take a glance at Mistress Liu Hua's departing figure, then returned to work.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of Han Li and the others, all of the inscriptions on the main frame were finally completed before nightfall on the third day.

However, the past half-month of work had been extremely taxing on everyone's spiritual sense, so they were all looking rather pale.

After all of the work was done, Mistress Liu Hua's attitude toward Xuanyuan Xing's trio warmed up significantly, and he said, "You've done well. Construction on the Star Falcon Flying Boat must be completed first before we can continue, so take a good rest in the interim."

Han Li and the others bade farewell to Mistress Liu Hua before departing, but Mistress Liu Hua instructed Han Li to stay behind.

"Why are you trying to get close to the people from Puppet City?" Mistress Liu Hua asked with a serious look in his eyes.

"I require a type of material that I've heard can only be found in Puppet City, so I'm hoping to get closer to them to see if I can exchange for that material. Rest assured, I won't let it get in the way of my work," Han Li replied, making up a reason on the spot.

"You think I'm stupid enough to believe something like that? Regardless of what your intentions are, the two cities are still sworn enemies, and the conflict between them cannot be resolved.

“Once access is gained to the Great Ruins, the two cities will instantly turn on each other again, so if you know what's good for you, then you'll stay far away from the Puppet City cultivators! Otherwise, you run the risk of having both cities turn on you!" Mistress Liu Hua harrumphed coldly.

Despite Mistress Liu Hua's cold tone, it was clear that his words came from a place of concern, and a surge of warmth flowed through Han Li's heart upon hearing this.

"Thank you for looking out for me, Mistress Liu Hua. I'll be sure to keep that in mind," Han Li replied in a grateful manner, and Mistress Liu Hua gave another cold harrumph before departing.

Han Li took a glance at the Puppet City campsite, then also returned to his own residence.

As the night deepened, a blurry humanoid figure snuck out of a tent before concealing themselves in the shadow cast by a nearby mountain. From there, they slowly left the Profound City campsite before approaching the Puppet City campsite.

Not only was the figure almost completely invisible, they also weren't giving off any aura at all.

It didn't take long before the figure arrived before the Puppet City campsite, following which they emerged from behind a large rock, revealing themselves to be none other than Han Li.

He had carefully weighed up his options after seeing that purple figure three days ago, and in the end, he was unable to suppress the urge to come here, despite the risks involved.
