The first season of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation" has 16 episodes, and the first half has been updated. Han Li went to the Mo family to get the Nuanyang Baoyu, and Mo Caihuan was reluctant to let him go. Han Li went to Tainan Valley under the guidance of Mo Caihuan, and he walked with Wan Xiaoshan all the way. On the way to Tainan Valley, Han Li passed by his hometown and saw his younger sister getting married. After Yiyi bid farewell to him, he and Wan Xiaoshan continued to set off. Tainan Valley is a special place, and both Han Li and Wan Xiaoshan came for the Ascension Conference.
Han Li met Chen Qiaoqian, Lu Yunfeng and Han Yunzhi before the Tainan small meeting. Han Li relieved Han Yunzhi. Lu Yunfeng wanted to attack Han Li. Fortunately, Chen Qiaoqian dissuaded him in time. Han Yunzhi later sold Han Li a Jin Zhu pen and a talisman. The nib of the Jin Zhu pen was made of the tail hair of a second-level monster, which was still very useful for Han Li. Han Li accidentally got the promotion order at the Tainan small meeting, after which he worshipped Huangfeng Valley, and Chen Qiaoqian became his senior sister. Han Li rescued Chen Qiaoqian, but Chen Qiaoqian didn't know that it was Han Li who saved her. Chen Qiaoqian didn't wait to see Han Li at first, and then she liked Han Li again.
Han Li participated in the Scarlet Trial in order to build Jidan. He met Han Yunzhi in the Scarlet Forbidden Land. Han Yunzhi was gentle and pleasant. She made a good impression on Han Li last time, so Han Li rescued her. Crisis was in the Scarlet Forbidden Field, and Han Li's cultivation was unable to cope with all situations. Han Li later met Nangongwan, who was the sister of the Moon Sect. At this time, Nangong Wan was already a high-ranking monk in the pill formation stage, and there was a big gap with Han Li's small cultivation stage. Nangongwan was suppressed, so her strength was actually similar to Han Li's.
Han Li met Nangong Wan in a fierce battle with Mo Jiao, and Mo Jiao's strength should not be underestimated. Although Nangong Wan could easily defeat Mo Jiao by relying on her original cultivation base, she was not so easy when her cultivation base was suppressed. After Nangong Wan was defeated, he was about to be injured or even fall, and Han Li finally made a move. Han Li's participation greatly increased the possibility of defeating Mo Jiao. After a bitter battle, Han Li and Nangong Wan finally defeated Mo Jiao. Han Li and Nangong Wan both relaxed, but it didn't take long for an accident to happen. This accident actually happened because of Mo Jiao, Han Li and Nangong Wan were together.
Nangongwan warned Han Li not to let others know what happened between them. Han Li said that he would not tell others, and he also promised that he would do his best to help when Nangongwan was in danger. Nangongwan was not moved, and it was almost impossible to protect her with Han Li's cultivation during the refining period. Nangongwan asked Han Li to take care of herself, after which she was about to leave. Han Li was reluctant to leave Nangong Wan, and Nangong Wan finally told Han Li his name. After Nangongwan returned to cover up Yuezong, she had a heart demon. She originally wanted to eliminate the heart demon by destroying Han Li, but she was shaken when she met Han Li during the foundation period.
