In Qianlingfang City, in a secluded blue-tiled courtyard, Han Longfei was reporting the situation to Han Benfu.
Han Benlin went to find Su Yuyan, but there had been no news for several years. Han Longfei had been investigating the situation of the Huang family.
"We found out that the Huang family sent people into Jiuyang Mountain for the second time, and not long after that, they began to issue a warrant for Su Yuyan's arrest, and have been increasing the bounty over the years."
Han Longfei spoke slowly.
Han Benfu nodded and was about to say something when she heard light footsteps and Han Benlin walked in with a serious look on his face.
"Long Fei, you step back first."
Han Benfu waved her hand and asked Han Longfei to leave.
"Sister, what do you think this is?"
Han Benlin took out a small black umbrella and handed it to Han Benfu.
There is a black whale pattern on the umbrella cover, and the handle is engraved with some exquisite patterns.
"Tongtian Lingbao! Where did you get it from?"
Han Benfu asked in confusion.
"This was given to me by Fairy Su. She said that the Huang family wanted her for this Black Whale Umbrella. This treasure was obtained by her parents from Jiuyang Mountain. It is said that it can weaken the power of a certain restriction."
Han Benlin briefly explained what happened.
On the way back, Su Yuyan gave him this magical treasure to thank him for saving her life.
"Weaken the power of the restriction somewhere in Jiuyang Mountain?"
Han Benfu was slightly stunned. She remembered that Han Changming and Han Debiao were trapped in Jiuyang Mountain for hundreds of years, where there were many restrictions.
The Huang family went to so much trouble just for this black whale umbrella? Could it be that there was something good in that forbidden place? A magic elixir for reaching the Void Refining Stage? Or a top-grade elixir? Or a treasure on the Star Domain Divine Weapon Ranking
Han Benfu didn't know, all this was just her guess. She probably knew the truth from the Huang family cultivators, but they would definitely not tell the truth to outsiders.
"Oh, this is the map Fairy Su gave me. It is said to be the route map of her parents' treasure hunt in Jiuyang Mountain. The places with golden marks are powerful restrictions."
Han Benlin took out a piece of light blue animal skin and handed it to Han Benfu.
Han Benfu glanced at it, nodded, and accepted the animal skin.
"Where's Su Yuyan? Where is she now?"
Han Benfu asked about Su Yuyan's whereabouts.
"She is in the market right now, sister. She is willing to be my Taoist partner, and I want to marry her."
Han Benlin said seriously, and on the way back, he confessed again. This time, Su Yuyan did not refuse and agreed.
Han Benfu had expected this and nodded, "Okay! But you have to protect her first and don't let her show her true face. I will inform my parents and ask them to arrange your marriage."
This matter is of great importance and must be reported to Han Changming, Ye Xin and Ye Xue.
Han Benlin agreed. He wanted to marry Su Yuyan in a grand ceremony.

Seven Immortal Stars, Seven Immortal Mountains.
Early in the morning of that day, just as the sky was getting light, there was a long queue at the entrance of the Seven Immortals Palace. A large number of cultivators lined up to enter the Seven Immortals Palace, ready to participate in the auction.
Xu Ruolin greeted her subordinates, and Han Changming did not have to queue and entered the venue directly, and had his own private box.
The hall of the Seven Immortals Palace is spacious and bright. In the center is a red stone platform several hundred feet in size. There are many green wooden chairs placed around it, and many monks are sitting on them.
There are many private rooms upstairs with their doors closed.
There are restrictions here, so the monks in the hall cannot see what is happening upstairs and do not know the identities of the VIPs entering and leaving the boxes.
In a private room on the second floor, Han Changming, Ye Xin, Ye Xue, Han Debiao and Liang Youshan were sitting in the room, drinking tea and chatting. On the stone wall was a silver magic mirror with a shining light, and on the mirror surface was a red stone platform.
"I heard that there will be treasures on the Star Domain Divine Weapon List at this auction. It would be great if Chang Ming could get that treasure."
Liang Youshan said with a smile.
"I am only in the early stage of refining the void. If I really exchange it for a treasure on the Star Domain Divine Weapon Ranking, it will only cause trouble."
Han Changming said calmly.
If he obtained a valuable treasure from an ancient cultivator's cave or a secret realm, that would naturally be a good thing. The outside world would not know about it and no one would cause trouble for him. However, if it was a treasure on the Star Domain Divine Weapon List, the higher the ranking of the treasure, the greater the trouble he would suffer.
Don’t think that Han Changming is in a good position now. That’s because he doesn’t have any rare resources for cultivating immortals, and because of the intimidation from the Zhao family, other forces won’t touch him.
If the outside world knew that Han Changming had obtained a treasure on the Star Domain Divine Weapon List, there would definitely be high-level cultivators who would cause trouble for Han Changming.
"That's right. If it was obtained from an ancient cultivator's cave or a secret realm, then there would be no problem. Forget about the auction, at least not now."
Ye Xin agreed deeply.
After chatting for half an hour, a loud bell rang and the auction began.
A pot-bellied old man in a green robe fell from the sky and landed on the red stone platform.
"My name is Chen Qing. Welcome all the seniors who have come from afar to participate in this auction. I will be in charge of hosting this auction. The highest bidder wins. Let's start bidding."
The old man in green robe gave a brief introduction, took out ten pale green porcelain bottles, and said loudly: "The Five Elements Pill can balance the power of the five elements. When a Spiritualization cultivator is trying to break through to the Void Refinement Stage, taking this pill can increase the chance of advancing to the Void Refinement Stage. The base price is five million spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than five hundred thousand spirit stones."
"Five million!"
"Five and a half million!"
"Six million!"
······
The competition is too fierce and prices are rising.
Han Changming can refine Qingsui Yuyuan Pills, which are similar to Wuyuan Tongling Pills, so there is naturally no need for him to bid for Wuyuan Tongling Pills. However, not all bidders can refine similar pills.
This auction attracted quite a few small forces and independent cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage. They came specifically for the Five Yuan Tongling Pill, hoping to use it to break through to the Void Refinement Stage.
After a fierce bidding, all ten Five Yuan Tong Ling Pills were auctioned off at high prices, with the transaction prices all exceeding 10 million spirit stones. The most expensive Five Yuan Tong Ling Pill was sold at a sky-high price of 15 million spirit stones.
This is still a top-grade elixir. Top-grade elixirs are even more expensive. An ordinary cultivator would be lucky to have a top-grade Five Yuan Tong Ling Pill to take. Only the elites from major forces are qualified to take top-grade elixirs to reach a higher realm.
If the elixir is to assist the Void Refining cultivators in reaching the Fusion Stage, the price will definitely be more expensive, and cultivators who are not wealthy simply cannot afford it.
After bidding away ten Five Yuan Tong Ling Dan, Chen Qing took out five golden porcelain bottles and said, "Five bottles of the sixth-level elixir, Jin Yu Fu Yuan Dan, which can quickly restore mana, are auctioned separately. The starting price is five million spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than one million."
When a Spiritual Transformation cultivator is trying to break through to the Void Refinement Stage, he can take a Golden Jade Recovery Pill to restore his mana. Defensive treasures or formations can then play a greater role. If the mana is insufficient, no matter how many treasures he has, they will be of no use.
"Five million!"
"Five and a half million!"
"Six million!"
······
The competition was fierce, and most of them were the monks who had just bid for the Five Yuan Tongling Pill.
