Chapter 371: Little Cai Huan Island

~10 min read 1,885 words

Han Li took the picture book and unfolded it slowly, only to discover that this was actually a complete map of Kuixing Island, with golden and white lights echoing each other, flickering with mysterious light.

However, the flashing places were all concentrated in that large green area in the center of the map.

Only then did Han Li know that the area occupied by Green Cloud Mountain was far beyond his imagination. The green area in the middle actually occupied more than a quarter of the entire island.

Han Li looked at those flickering white light spots and couldn't help but half-close his eyes, examining them carefully.

Compared with the golden light, the white light was clearly more than half. However, the brightness of the white light was clearly different.

Some were dazzling, while others only emitted a faint light.

The places marked as mountain peaks were extremely dazzling, but Han Li didn't consider these places at all. Because the supplementary words of the middle-aged cultivator rang in his ears:

"Qi Condensation stage cultivators are not qualified to choose various mountain peaks. Other places do not have this restriction; as long as it is a place with white light, you can choose!"

This was exactly the same as what the youth surnamed Wen told him.

But the rest were places like natural valleys and caves where the white light was much dimmer.

"This humble one wants to ask a question. How large a cave dwelling can I open in these places, and are there any restrictions?" After looking at the picture book for a while, Han Li suddenly raised his head and asked the middle-aged man in a deep voice.

"With your cave dwelling as the center, a radius of ten li is your private range. You can set up formations and restrictions at will, as long as you have the ability to enclose such a large area." The middle-aged cultivator revealed a look of surprise, but then showed a trace of mockery and said.

"Then can this humble one choose this place? Since this place is also white light, there should also be a spiritual vein, right?" Han Li said calmly after listening.

Then, he pointed lightly at a certain place on the map, and instantly the white light there turned yellow.

Han Li handed the picture book back to the other party.

"Here!" The middle-aged cultivator's gaze swept over the place Han Li pointed to, and his pale face showed a look of surprise.

The place Han Li pointed to was actually a place outside Kuixing Island, where a faint white light was indeed flickering.

"This is Little Cai Huan Island. The length of this island is only!" The middle-aged cultivator said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and it faintly revealed a sense of mockery.

Han Li didn't speak; he knew that since the other party revealed such an expression, this island was definitely not that simple.

"For our Kuixing Island, this island can be considered a chicken rib. Because there is a spiritual vein on it, it's a pity to abandon it. But its spiritual energy concentration is far inferior to other islands, and its area is too small."

"If you really choose this place, cultivating on it will certainly not be disturbed by other cultivators, but the spiritual energy concentration is at least one-third thinner than the places provided by our Green Cloud Mountain. That is to say, your cultivation speed will be much slower than other cultivators."

"In the past, there were a few cultivators who, like you, liked to occupy a place alone for bitter cultivation and also chose this island. But after staying for only a few years, they all honestly returned. They would rather pay a large amount of spirit stones to re-choose a place for cultivation than continue to stay on this island. After all, for us cultivators, spiritual energy is the most important thing."

"Moreover, the regulations state that cultivators who choose this island must also bear the obligation of protecting this island. That is to say, the spirit stones for the island's defensive formation must be paid for by yourself. Of course, you can collect a certain amount of spirit stones from the island's residents as compensation, and you don't need to pay the annual spirit stone tribute to the main island anymore. However, I will remind you first. The few spirit stones handed over by the island's residents are not enough to compensate for the daily consumption of the defensive formation. Nowadays, the spirit stones consumed by this island have always been directly responsible by Kuixing Island, which is why it has been able to support it until now." The middle-aged cultivator said listlessly, tapping the edge of the bed with his index finger in a rhythmic manner.

"Can it be considered that if I arrive at this small island, I am actually the Island Master of this island!" After listening to the other party's words, Han Li pondered for a long time before asking softly.

"Hehe, you can indeed think so." The middle-aged man said with some surprise.

He had already explained the disadvantages of this island so clearly, yet this young man still wanted to choose this island, so it was none of his business.

At this moment, the middle-aged cultivator examined Han Li again in a thought-provoking manner and sneered secretly a few times.

By then, the huge consumption of spirit stones alone would probably make this person cry out in distress!

He believed that at most in a year or two, this young cultivator would return with a gray face to choose a new place for cultivation.

Otherwise, a true Island Master of a small island would have been snatched up by other cultivators long ago; how could it have been left until now!

"Alright, this humble one chooses this island!" Han Li thought about it again and said without hesitation.

Hearing Han Li say it so definitely, the middle-aged cultivator didn't hesitate.

He took out a golden brush from his robes and pointed lightly at the island on the map, and the white light on it instantly turned golden.

Then he took out a jade slip from his robes, wrote a few characters on the jade slip with the golden brush, and tossed it to Han Li.

Han Li took the jade slip and looked down at it. On the jade slip were two golden symbols, which looked somewhat familiar; it seemed to be his name written in the local characters.

"This jade slip is the proof that Little Cai Huan Island is your place for cultivation! There is also a roster of the island's residents inside; keep it safe!" The middle-aged cultivator said indifferently.

Then he put away the picture book, lay down on the bed again, and waved his hand at Han Li.

His intention to see the guest out was revealed clearly!

Han Li bowed slightly and retreated tactfully.

After leaving the Ascension Pavilion, Han Li had no intention of staying on Green Cloud Mountain to browse the scenery or make more acquaintances. Instead, he flew away from Green Cloud Mountain using his magic tool and returned to the Gu Family Manor.

Early the next morning, Han Li left a letter for the Master of the Gu Manor on the wooden table in the room and brought Qu Hun to fly toward a nearby small town.

There, he bought a map of Kuixing Island and the nearby sea area, and then headed straight for the harbor.

Hearing Wang Wang Changqing say that there was the largest city on the island, "Kuixing City," in the west of Kuixing Island, where there was a "Heaven Capital Street" specifically for Immortal Masters to buy and sell items.

Although Han Li very much wanted to go there to gain some experience and see what kind of items overseas cultivators traded and what kind of cultivation techniques they practiced.

But his current cultivation base was truly pitifully low, and going to such a place crowded with cultivators made him somewhat uneasy, making him feel insecure, so he had to endure and give up.

"It seems that if my strength is not enough, my courage will also be much smaller." Han Li muttered to himself somewhat self-deprecatingly on the way to the harbor.

This time, not choosing a place for cultivation on Green Cloud Mountain but going to "Little Cai Huan Island," which had thinner spiritual energy, was a decision he had made after racking his brains to keep the secret of the little bottle.

Only on such an isolated island far away from other cultivators could he let go and cultivate the spiritual herbs he needed, so that the rapid progress of his cultivation base would not attract the attention of other cultivators!

Although in this way, perhaps his cultivation speed would be a little slower, but the spiritual energy was enough for him to cultivate the spiritual herbs he needed.

After all, he mainly relied on taking and refining pills to cultivate, so the thinness of spiritual energy would not have too much of an impact on him.

Han Li flew out of the huge restriction covering the entire Kuixing Island from the harbor and flew straight toward "Little Cai Huan Island" according to the description on the map.

Don't look at this island being just next to Kuixing Island on the map, but Han Li flew on the Spirit Wind Boat for a whole day and night before he saw this island from the sky.

After Han Li circled the island, he finally saw a small pier that should be the entrance to the formation.

Thus, Han Li landed slowly on the pier.

There were very few people on the pier, only more than a dozen people who looked like fishermen, resting on small boats at the edge of the pier.

As soon as they saw Han Li and Qu Hun descend from the sky, they jumped off the small boats one after another and gathered toward Han Li.

"This humble one is Hei Gui, greetings to the Immortal Master!"

This group of people bowed one after another as soon as they arrived in front of Han Li, and among them, a black-faced man who looked very sturdy asked respectfully, as if he were the leader of these fishermen.

"This is Little Cai Huan Island, right!" Although Han Li felt he wouldn't be mistaken, he still asked cautiously first.

"Yes, Immortal Master! Is the Immortal Master here to change spirit stones? But spirit stones were changed not long ago!" Hei Gui asked with a face full of confusion.

"I am not here to change spirit stones. But from today on, the consumption of spirit stones on this small island will be paid by me. Because this small island is already my place for cultivation. You can call me Immortal Master Han from now on!" Hearing that this island was indeed Little Cai Huan Island, Han Li breathed a sigh of relief and said to the people in front of him with a smile.

Then, amidst the surprised gazes of these fishermen, he greeted Qu Hun and flew toward the center of the island using his magic tool again.
