Now, Han Li rarely concocts pills anymore. He only needs to refine one of each kind, and the rest can be handled by the Chengdao Vial; the general concocting is left to the Guest Elders.
Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, and Formation research are also occasionally delved into by Han Li, all of which take place in the Time-Sky Tower, allowing for a great saving of time.
…..
Taichu Realm.
The Taichu Realm is vast and boundless, immense and infinite, huge and limitless, encompassing endless opportunities.
The Taichu Realm is divided into one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains, with Yuankun Domain being just one of them, located at the southeast corner of the Taichu Realm, behind Xuanshen Sword Mountain.
Above the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains, there are the Thirty-three Heavens, each heaven infinitely vast and expansive.
The Thirty-three Heavens are the dwellings of Immortals, looming over the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains, looking down upon all living beings.
Within the Thirty-three Heavens dwell countless Immortals and innumerable blessed lands of Immortal families, rich with Immortal Qi and strewn with Immortal treasures.
After ascending to Immortality, cultivators from the lower realms generally choose to go to the Thirty-three Heavens. It can be said to be ascension, but without the need for tribulation or metamorphosis.
There are also those who, after becoming Immortals, choose to remain in the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains. However, since the lower realms lack Immortal Qi and the substance of longevity, they need special methods to channel these from the Thirty-three Heavens of the upper realm.
Even so, although their lifespans do not diminish, their cultivation speed is much slower than that in the Thirty-three Heavens.
The Thirty-three Heavens are closely linked to the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains with many passageways that allow cultivators to ascend to Immortality. These pathways can only be navigated by Immortals, with restrictions imposed by the rules.
Generally speaking, Supreme Territories, great teachings, and Eternal Clans all have special channels that lead to the Thirty-three Heavens, pathways opened by powerful Immortals for the lower realms’ dao inheritances.
These channels allow Saints, Quasi Emperors, and even Great Emperors to enter the Thirty-three Heavens, but due to the suppression of the rules of the upper realms, they cannot live there for long.
In the Thirty-three Heavens, there are no ordinary creatures, but there are lower realm cultivators who are the descendants of Immortals, belonging to the native population of the upper realm, and are not suppressed by the rules.
Apart from this, there are some special places within the Taichu Realm that are unrestricted and simultaneously exist within both the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred domains and the Thirty-three Heavens.
These include the Land of the Supreme Heaven, Ancient Immortal River, Origin Sea, Endless Star Pathway, Space Bridge, and so forth.
Xuanshen Sword Mountain can only be considered half of one.
The Cosmic Sea is also one of them.
The Cosmic Sea is a vast and endless ocean, emanating a terrifying aura, where ordinary cultivators dare not approach. A single wave can crush a Heavenly Immortal to dust, and a splash can overwhelm even an Immortal King of the Heaven Imperial Realm.
The Cosmic Sea consists of innumerable, limitless universes, each droplet of water being a broken universe, each wave representing thousands upon thousands of desolate worlds.
This is the final resting place for universes and worlds within the Taichu Realm—once blown apart artificially or naturally extinguished, they end up in the Cosmic Sea.
In the Cosmic Sea, space and time are chaotic, and even Immortal Kings who overlook the cycles of reincarnation lose their way upon entering, unable to find direction.
At this moment, deep within the Cosmic Sea.
Here, an island rises and falls, unmoved by the battering of waves and tides, eternally resolute and unyielding.
In the center of the island, stands a man with his hands behind his back, his face indistinct, surrounded by diffusing light. The occasional release of his breath calms the raging waves.
Next to him, there is a sword scabbard planted in the ground. Strangely, it contains no Immortal Sword, yet the scabbard itself was sharp beyond measure and incredibly powerful; any cultivator who laid eyes on it felt as though they were gazing upon a Sword Dao Great Emperor.
In front of this man is a tripod furnace, colossal in size, with countless points of light swirling around its exterior and a violent fire raging within, as if burning something.
“Not enough.”
After an unknown amount of time, the man with his hands behind his back suddenly spoke.
His voice was like the Dao itself, imbued with boundless profound and majestic power, causing the surrounding waters of the island to evaporate for miles and countless universes to come to their end. For a moment, space and time ceased their chaos and clarity was restored.
But then the vast waters surged back, filling in what was lost, leaving the sea’s surface untouched.
After uttering just those three words, the man fell silent again. He looked towards the scabbard, which radiated sword light and revealed an expanse of infinite domain. He shook his head, averted his gaze, and as the sword light vanished, so did his figure, and the island concealed itself deep within the Cosmic Sea.

Qianyuan Divine Province, Chengsheng Mountain.
It has been over a month since Han Li’s wedding to Lu Qingxuan. In this time, he opened a treasure chest once but did not obtain anything noteworthy.
He suspects that his fortune was temporarily exhausted after previously opening a chest and obtaining the Heavenly Immortal weapon, the Sword of Humanity.
This past month, Han Li lived a leisurely life, spending his days arranging flowers and visiting scenic spots, enjoying the beautiful vistas of Chengsheng Mountain with his lovely wife and concubines.
The scenery was beautiful, the beauties even more so.
During this time, the population of Han Mansion increased rapidly. The new birth encouragement policy had been officially announced, triggering a sudden surge in the desire to expand the family’s lineage.
As of yesterday, the total number of Han Mansion’s descendants had reached 5,822, with 2,740 of them showing exceptional talent, further increasing the population of Han Mansion.
With an increase of over eight hundred in the population, Han Li’s cultivation and lifespan also increased by more than eight hundred. Coupled with what he had left before, he now had accumulated over a thousand years’ worth of cultivation.
