Hunting Immortals and Demons: It Starts with Gathering Intelligence in the Celestial Prison

The Great Yu Immortal Dynasty has endured for ten thousand years. Its emperor pursues immortality beyond the martial path, but has long neglected his duties. Beneath the prosperous age, undercurrents stir: within the realm, the Marquis of Linyuan of Qingzhou has seized the authority of Heaven and Earth and gained the divine ability to feed on qi, then rebelled and unleashed chaos. Beyond its borders, gods and demons lurk while monsters run rampant... When Han Li opens his eyes, he finds himself in the death prison of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, one of the nine clans of the Marquis of Linyuan, awaiting execution. Fortunately, his golden finger awakens, granting him three top-secret pieces of information every day, allowing him to glimpse the hidden truths of the world and turn the tide. [Information One: (Street Gossip) At the end of the Xushi hour tonight, the newlywed concubine of the Qinghe County magistrate, Liu, will sneak into the residence of County Deputy Lei Heng for a tryst...] [Information Two: (Han Family Secret) Han Sanniu laments that his son has no talent for martial arts... Thirty-five taels of silver, saved to buy a wife, are buried beneath the seventh locust tree on the back hill.] [Information Three: (Opportunity) Tomorrow at the Mao hour, a Qinghe County prison guard will drag a corpse out of the jail and dump it in the mass graveyard on West Mountain. The corpse belonged to one of the Marquis of Linyuan's twelve personal guards. After the marquis's rebellion failed, the guard hid a drop of blood essence containing the authority of the divine ability to feed on qi inside one of his finger bones, concealed in the index finger of his right hand. Take the finger bone, swallow the blood essence, and refine it to gain the divine ability to feed on qi.]
