The Mortal's Path to Immortality

"Second Miss, there is someone standing in the middle of the road ahead." An armored knight riding a wild beast came to the front of a carriage in front of the caravan and said in a low voice.

"Judging from his clothes, he should be a high-level monk." The armored knight continued to speak.

"Well, I already know." A slightly rough female voice came from the carriage, "Go up and ask what's going on. If you need help, you might as well help."

"If you have ulterior motives, just kill him."

"Understood." The armored knight rode the wild beast and left the team, and soon came to Cao Rui.

"Who are you and why are you blocking the road?" The armored knight asked.

The armored knight's words had some accents, and Cao Rui carefully distinguished them and found that they should be ancient rhymes. But he could hear clearly, and after slightly changing his accent, Cao Rui answered: "I am Cao Rui."

"I have been in seclusion for too long nearby, and some problems occurred in my cultivation, and I lost my memory. I want to ask you what this world is? Where are you going?"

Something went wrong in my cultivation and I lost my memory? The armored knight naturally didn't believe this nonsense.

But Cao Rui didn't seem to have bad intentions, so the armored knight followed his words and said: "This world is the Frost Heaven Realm. We came from the Kunpeng Demon Land and are about to return to the North Sea Holy Land."

Cao Rui didn't want to reveal the information of his ascender. No one knew what the attitude of the spirit world was towards the ascenders, so it was naturally difficult to continue asking in detail.

After a little thought, Cao Rui said, "I wonder if I can go to the North Sea Holy Land with you?"

The armored knight looked Cao Rui up and down, as if to judge whether he was in danger. After a moment, he said, "I still need to ask my master for instructions on this matter."

"Please ask for instructions, fellow Taoist." Cao Rui bowed his hands and said.

Seeing that Cao Rui's attitude was acceptable, the armored knight turned around and went back to ask his second lady.

Not long after, the armored knight said, "If you want to go to the North Sea Holy Land, you can go with us. Please follow me."

The armored knight drove the huge rhino beast forward all the way, at a very fast speed, and it was effortless when going uphill.

Cao Rui felt it carefully and found that there was no demonic power in this beast, that is, it was not a demon.

But he could feel that there was a powerful energy in this beast that was similar to the source of Yuanli.

Later, Cao Rui learned that this kind of beast was a creature unique to the spirit world, called a wild beast.

Wild beasts are very special. No matter how strong they are, they will not have too high intelligence.

But once they are tamed, they will become extremely loyal.

Moreover, the individual strengths of wild beasts vary greatly. Some extremely powerful wild beasts can even be compared with immortals.

Therefore, wild beasts are favored by major forces in the spiritual world.

In contrast, demon beasts are different, because there are special demon forces in the spiritual world. If anyone dares to enslave the demons, they will inevitably be hunted down by the demons.

The caravan here was quite polite to Cao Rui and gave Cao Rui an empty seat on the cart to sit and rest.

Cao Rui also took out the cushion and sat cross-legged.

Thinking about what the scene of the North Sea Holy Land is like.

What is the status level of a cultivator in the Spiritual World?

The caravan was moving fast, and the wild beasts pulled the carts forward rapidly on the icy road.

The tail could even bring up white frost.

In this way, the caravan traveled along the icy road for ten days.

During this period, Cao Rui had been secretly collecting information obtained by caravan members through his spiritual sense.

He did learn some basic common sense, so he was not completely ignorant.

For example, Kunpeng Demon Land was the territory of the demon race, and Beihai Holy Land was the territory of the human race.

But more knowledge about the spiritual world could only be explored in the so-called Beihai Holy Land.

On this day, Cao Rui, as usual, used his spiritual sense to perceive the surrounding situation.

Due to the influence of the curse, his current spiritual sense range has been weakened to more than 9,000 miles.

At this time, a new discovery caught his attention.

"Huh? What is that? Is this the Beihai Holy Land?"

In Cao Rui's spiritual sense, a huge city surrounded by a hundred-foot-high wall appeared in the distance.

From the perception of the spiritual sense, it can be vaguely identified that there are four peaks in the four corners of the city.

These peaks are connected to the hundred-foot-high wall, together forming this amazing giant city.

It is like a great work of art, showing an unparalleled scale and spectacular scene.

However, what surprised Cao Rui even more was that when he tried to explore the city with his divine sense, he encountered obvious obstacles.

His divine sense seemed unable to penetrate the border of the city, as if blocked by an invisible force.

After a closer look, he found that the walls of the giant city were flashing with mysterious energy fluctuations. Obviously, there was a protective mechanism similar to the formation.

This formation can not only prevent the detection of the divine sense from the outside world, but also play a role in protecting the city.

Two days later.

An extremely huge city appeared in front of it, like a huge wild beast lying on the ground, exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of life.

"We're home!" A wild beast knight in the caravan shouted loudly.

The caravan members in the team also showed joy on their faces.

This city is indeed the North Sea Holy Land, which is the gathering place of the human race in this area.

At this moment, the south gate entrance of the North Sea Holy Land.

A large number of caravans and business travelers gathered at the entrance to line up to enter the city.

The entrance is several miles wide, which is quite shocking.

Cao Rui got off the cart and found the previous wild beast knight: "Thank you for leading the way. I will take my leave here first."

The wild beast knight nodded: "Nothing, you can go by yourself."

After that, the wild beast knight left with the caravan.

Cao Rui looked at the city in front of him, feeling a little emotional.

He turned and left, and came to a personal entrance.

There were too many people queuing at the caravan entrance, but there were fewer people at the personal entrance.

Cao Rui didn't even queue up when he came here.

The two guards at the entrance, wearing black armor and holding spears, stopped Cao Rui.

"Please show me your identity token."

"Identity token?"

Cao Rui was slightly startled: "I lost my identity token."

The two soldiers were not surprised: "Let's get a new one. The reissue fee is one Yuanshi, and the entrance fee is one Yuanshi, a total of two Yuanshi?"

Yuanshi?

Cao Rui was slightly embarrassed. He had just arrived in the spirit world and he really didn't have any Yuanshi.

He took out a high-quality spirit stone and said: "Can I use a spirit stone instead?"

"Spirit stone?" The soldier frowned slightly, took the spirit stone and carefully sensed it, and said: "Twenty spirit stones of this quality will be considered as your payment of Yuanshi."
