"These are all minor feats, indeed." Hearing this, Han Li only offered a slight smile and then slowly descended toward the small island. Liu Shui'er furrowed her brows slightly; the words she had intended to ask slipped from her lips, and she too settled into a streak of blue light, descending gracefully. At that moment, Shi Kun had already been waiting at the center of the island for a while. He had personally witnessed Han Li's earlier maneuver of transforming the ice wall, yet his expression remained calm—strikingly different from his earlier frenzied demeanor during their combat. Han Li, seeing this composed demeanor, felt a sudden sense of alertness. "We don't have much time. Let's begin practicing the coordinated secret technique now," Shi Kun said as soon as Han Li and the other arrived nearby. "Of course. However, this technique requires both support and leadership—its effectiveness depends on the strength of each person's Yuanmagnetic Radiance. Ideally, the one with the strongest radiance should lead the technique, so that we can fully realize its potential." "Let each of us first demonstrate our own divine magnetic light powers, and then we'll decide who will take the lead and who will support." Li Shui'er nodded, yet spoke as above. "Agreed—I've also been thinking the same. I've heard that Miss Li is naturally endowed with a primordial magnetic body, but I'm not sure how she compares to my later-developed magnetic form. Which one is truly superior?" Shi Kun's eyes brightened, a subtle spark of excitement visible on his face. "Perhaps each has its own strengths. While the innate magnetic body allows for effortless, intuitive control, it is quite difficult to cultivate. In contrast, your later-acquired form—like that of your friend—can grow immensely powerful with the help of external forces." Li Shui'er said calmly. "But the innate magnetic body does have the potential for further cultivation and advancement—how can that be matched by a later-developed one? Moreover, back when I was cultivating this form, I truly endured many hardships. Brother Han, I've heard you are different from both of us—you can only manifest this divine light when you encounter a specific magnetic artifact. Is that truly the case?" "Shi Kun chuckled and turned to ask Han Li. "Indeed. Han, my Yuanmagnetic Divine Light surely can't compare with either of the two. I'll step aside and not join the competition." Han Li smiled lightly and said this with ease. "Then, if Brother Han agrees, I'll take it upon myself to spar with Lady Liu." Upon hearing Han Li's words, Shi Kun gazed thoughtfully before finally letting go of any sense of pressure. Upon hearing this, Liu Shui'er moved without a word, gradually rising into the air and hovering at a height of over twenty paces above the ground. It seemed she had some intention—clearly showing a strong interest in Shi Kun's post-natural Yuanmagnetic body. Shi Kun roared softly, a yellow glow flashing across his body, and in a flash, he too soared into the sky, standing directly opposite the woman in the cloak. Han Li, meanwhile, his form briefly blurred, suddenly materialized with a series of trailing shadows at a distance of over a hundred paces, then calmly looked toward the distant sky. Though he had little interest in securing dominance over the joint technique for the attack, he was still eager to learn more about the powers of the other two positions. At that moment, Stone Kun in the sky roared loudly, and suddenly his skin turned black, transforming into a solid, dark "stone figure." Then, with a simple gesture of his hands, the yellow glow on his body instantly shifted into a hazy, gray radiance. This was a clear sign of the Yuan-Magnetic Divine Light radiating outward. "Li Xian has it secured," Stone Kun said, without any further gestures—simply lifting his arm and spreading his fingers to grasp the void across from him. A powerful rushing sound erupted! A gray light column surged forth from his palms, but as soon as it emerged, it dispersed into thousands of fine gray filaments. A continuous series of "shushing" sounds filled the sky. Han Li, below, narrowed his eyes slightly at the sight. Liu Shui'er watched the scene unfold, yet remained calm, raising her hand and murmuring a single incantation. Suddenly, a brilliant glow surged behind her graceful form, and a gray light mist rose upward, forming a massive, rotating disc several zhang in diameter. At the center of the disc, a flash of gray light erupted and spiraled out, directly heading toward the opposing light filaments. At once, the dark, solid figure trembled, and a brilliant gray light surged forth, dazzlingly bright—so intense that the entire form seemed to transform into a luminous gray sun, shimmering in the air, its brilliance so strong it made it hard to look directly at. Li Shui'er, facing the scene, felt her expression stiffen beneath her cloak, her first sign of serious concern, her hands swiftly weaving an unknown set of gestures while murmuring incantations. As a result, the gray circular light behind her slightly blurred, then began to spin rapidly, with countless characters surging forth from within and swiftly breaking apart and reassembling. In a moment, a vast, previously unknown character gradually took shape at the center of the rotating light wheel. At once, hundreds of gray luminous spheres, radiating brilliant light, surged toward the cloak-wearing woman in a sweeping tide, their roaring sound overwhelming and unprecedented. Faced with such a powerful assault, Liu Shui'er merely emitted a cold exhalation, lightly touching the air with a translucent, jade-white finger extending from her. A sudden hum resonated from the gray rotating wheel behind her, which instantly ceased its motion, and a massive symbol erupted forcefully from its center. An eerie scene unfolded. As soon as the symbol shot forth, the gray light expanded rapidly, responding to the wind, and within mere flashes, it swelled to a height of several tens of zhang, nearly filling half the sky, before directly advancing against the hundreds of gray spheres. Silent and unyielding. The hundreds of gray spheres struck the symbol, only to flash briefly and then vanish into it, as if they had disappeared without a trace—completely motionless thereafter. At this moment, with a flash of gray light from both hands, the stone-armed Shi Kun, who had intended to launch a second wave of attacks, suddenly froze mid-action, his expression stunned. After a long pause, he only managed a wry smile. "No more fighting. Indeed, you are no ordinary later-stage cultivator—your innate, primordial magnetic body is far beyond our reach. Just this single move has already secured you a decisive advantage." The runes flashed with a gray light, shattering inch by inch, then spiraled backward into points of luminous energy, reuniting as a gray glow into the gray circular aura. Then, with a gentle wave of her arm, the strange luminous wheel behind her vanished, and she herself drifted down slowly. "Ha ha, Master Liu, no need to flatter me with compliments. I know well enough what's going on in my own affairs. I've given it my very best effort, and Master Liu's Yuanmagnetic Divine Light has probably only drawn upon six or seven parts of its full power. As for Master Han, his Yuanmagnetic Divine Light—well, it's merely enhanced by a modest external artifact, so naturally it's even less impressive than that of the Immortal Maiden. I must admit, in this particular ability, I fall far short of the Master." Stone Kun spoke with calm assurance. "Master Stone, you yourself admit to being no match for Master Liu's skill. As for my Yuanmagnetic Divine Light, it's only amplified by a simple external object—so naturally, its power must be even less impressive," Han said, with a smile that held both amusement and reserve. Liu Shui'er Yet since the true power behind the other party's metaphysical magnetic technique relied merely on a single modest treasure, it was clearly impossible for them to match the two of them. Thus, after exchanging a few more polite words, neither party felt the need to test Han Li's abilities further. They were unaware that Han Li's true treasure was actually an entire metaphysical magnetic mountain—otherwise, they would have thought differently. As a result, the three of them immediately settled on a coordinated attack technique, with Liu Shui'er taking the lead, Han Li and Shi Kun supporting her. They promptly established a vast illusionary array around the island, concealing the disorder and making everything appear as normal as ever, and then began practicing their coordinated movements. The十余 days passed swiftly. During this period, no one else nor any sea creatures passed by the island, and no unexpected events occurred. Then, after a few more days, the illusionary array suddenly dissolved, and three figures rose from the island, ascending into the sky and hovering there in a single, fluid motion. These three were none other than Han Li and his companions. The woman in the cloak had a subtle gleam of joy in her eyes, Han Li's expression remained calm, while Shi Kun appeared utterly unconcerned. It seemed their cultivation on the island had proceeded very smoothly. "Never expected that our joint practice of the Metallurgical Magnetic Divine Light technique would have gone so smoothly—we were able to manipulate it effortlessly within just over ten days," Li Shui'er remarked with a touch of sentiment. "Ha, this is largely due to Li's profound understanding of the Metallurgical Magnetic Divine Light, which surpasses ours significantly. Through this cooperative practice, both Han and I have greatly benefited," Shi Kun said with a chuckle. "Indeed. I hadn't anticipated that the Metallurgical Magnetic Divine Light could unfold so many variations. I truly appreciate Li Lady's willingness to share her insights," Han Li added, smiling. "You two are too kind. My own understanding stems from the inherent advantage of possessing a naturally formed Metallurgical Magnetic Body," Li Shui'er replied. "I suspect that if your two companions also possessed such conditions, they would surely have grasped far more than I have," Li Shui'er replied with a light smile. "We three don't need to be overly formal. Let's hurry and search for that sealed site right away. On this sea surface, we simply can't determine our current location. We must first reach land before we can establish our next course of action." Shi Kun said with ease. Hearing Shi Kun's words, Han Li and Li Shui'er naturally agreed without hesitation. Immediately, the three of them activated their flight spells and broke through the air, heading in a determined direction.
