"Jin Zuan Wen!" Han Li's eyes narrowed suddenly. "Indeed, originally there were several other Dao De friends with us, but they all perished. The Jin Zuan Wen was discovered jointly by us and the Rong clan in a certain hidden cave." The elder's face expressed a mixture of emotions before he finally sighed. Han Li gazed at the elder without speaking, knowing he would elaborate at length. Indeed, after a pause, the elder continued: "However, before we had a chance to break the seal and fully inscribe the spiritual text, we were ensnared by the Rong clan's scheme. The other several Dao De friends fell instantly, while only I and Lady Yue managed to escape through secret techniques. Though we are now severely drained, we can no longer risk further endeavors. If Brother Han is interested in this technique, I would recommend you give it a try. By the way, that hidden cave is quite secluded—besides this Jin Zuan Wen technique, there may be other treasures concealed within." "Ah, such a situation!" Where exactly is the hidden cave you mentioned? After all this time has passed, haven't the Rong clan members already succeeded in making their move and departed? After pondering, Han Li asked. "Brother Han, please rest assured. The seals within the hidden cave are extremely formidable, and the Golden Script characters are divided into several parts and placed strategically. Even after such a prolonged delay, I believe the Rong clan members will not be able to penetrate all the seals and obtain the complete technique. As long as we rush over immediately, there's a strong chance we'll still make it," Moon Princess said, adding her explanation with a flicker of her gaze. "How many Rong clan members are likely still stationed there?" Han Li's interest was piqued, and he asked. "There should still be about a dozen. These Rong clan members are exceptionally cunning. When we first encountered them at the hidden cave, they only sent half their force, inviting us several of us to jointly explore the cave. However, upon seeing the Golden Script, they suddenly turned against us and sent out the remaining half of their force. Under outnumbered circumstances, we were forced into this situation. Even with your great abilities, it would be difficult to hold your "We can only quietly enter the hidden cavern and act according to the situation," the elder seemed to have already anticipated this, offering the suggestion without hesitation. "A dozen or so—indeed, it would be difficult to confront them directly. However, I have one more question: have both of you known about the existence of this golden script beforehand, and specifically, what kind of secret technique or cultivation method it records? As far as I know, only a few people in the entire Tianyun region can even read this kind of spiritual script." After a moment of thoughtful silence, Han Li suddenly smiled and asked. "That's... well..." "Han brother is truly insightful—there seems to be nothing more to conceal. Indeed, we had already learned about the hidden cavern and this golden script from our elders within the clan. And both I and Xu friend are proficient in reading this golden script. The spiritual text appears to record a technique known as the 'Refinement of the Spirit'." The elder paused slightly, while the woman calmly and confidently affirmed. "The Refinement of the Spirit," Han Li blinked, somewhat surprised. "According to an elder in our clan, this technique appears remarkably profound, capable of multiplying one's spiritual awareness by several times. Once mastered, it would prove highly beneficial in overcoming the thresholds at the Consolidation stage and beyond." The elder replied without further reservation. "A multiplication of spiritual awareness by several times? Impossible! How could there exist such a transcendent cultivation method in the world?" Han Li's expression changed instantly, and he exclaimed aloud. "What the Xu friend said is true. In fact, our predecessors in both clans were already aware of the existence of the secret cavern and this golden script text during the early stages of the Guanghan Realm's formation. This is why we have a general understanding of the benefits of this spiritual cultivation technique. However, due to the vague nature of the records, our clan members have repeatedly ventured into this realm over the years, expending considerable effort to finally locate the secret cavern. Yet, the entrance to the cavern is protected by a highly intricate seal, which can only be broken with a solid understanding of the golden script text." Thus, over the years, our two clans have been tirelessly seeking records and information about the Jin Zhuan script across the entire Leiming Continent. It was only recently, just before the opening of the Guanghan Realm, that I and my friend Xu have finally gained a solid understanding of the Jin Zhuan script—enough to feel confident entering the inner cavern. Now that we reflect on it, the timely appearance of the Rong clan members is quite remarkable. They appeared suddenly, right when we had just broken through the entrance's seal. It seems our movements have long been observed by them. They must have already known the location of the inner cavern through other means. "The lady explained in detail. "If this cultivation technique truly proves so remarkable, then I would be delighted to make the journey. However, Mr. Han has never been particularly familiar with the Jin Zhuan script. Even if he acquires this technique, it may still prove useless to him." Han's expression remained uncertain and fluctuating for a while before he spoke. "That's quite easy to arrange. As long as Mr. Han secures this technique and is willing to provide copies for me and Lady Yue." We would like to fully impart our mastery of the Golden Seal Script to the esteemed guest, so that you may smoothly comprehend and master this technique. This shall also serve as our compensation for your brave actions. Seeing that Master Han has truly been moved, the elder grew more spirited and promptly replied. Moon Lady remained silent, clearly accepting the arrangement as well. "Since both of you have expressed such willingness, Master Han, I must surely make this journey. Brother Xu, please prepare a copy of the map for me." Han finally made up his mind and spoke calmly. "Guest, please wait a moment—I will immediately reproduce the map." Brother Xu was delighted and readily agreed. With a single hand motion, he produced a jade scroll, placing it gently upon his forehead, where a gentle, steady glow of white light shimmered continuously. In mere moments, the jade scroll faithfully captured the map stored in the elder’s consciousness. "Master Han, please take good care of yourself. I and Moon Lady shall patiently await your favorable news!" The elder handed the scroll over, beaming with a warm smile. "The two of you take a brief rest on the island a little way off. If I truly obtain this golden script, I will return promptly to join you both." Han Li took the jade scroll and replied in a steady voice. Then, a flash of green light rippled over his body, and he vanished into a streak of jade-green light, breaking through the air. In a few swift movements, the streak reached the far horizon and then disappeared entirely without a trace. "Xu brother, do you think Han's journey holds a reasonable chance of success?" After witnessing the light vanish completely, the woman turned her gaze and asked. "It's hard to say. Ordinary upper-clan members would have nearly no chance at all. But this person has demonstrated powers that are truly profound—equal to even the early stages of the Sacred Clan. If his luck holds, he should have about a fifty-fifty chance. Don't forget that among the Wou clans, there's one particularly formidable figure. You and I, working together, were even wounded by him." Xu, the elder, pondered for a while before speaking slowly. "A fifty-fifty chance—that's already quite good." We and our clan have planned for this matter for a long time, yet unforeseen circumstances arose when it came to implementation. Had we not brought the practicing cultivator back to our clan, our fates would have been dire indeed." The woman exhaled softly. "It's truly unavoidable. Who could have imagined that a group of Rong clan members would suddenly appear on the road, disrupting our plans?" The elder replied with a touch of resignation. "Had I known these Rong clan members had been plotting against us all along, I would never have agreed to ally with them. I'd have willingly assisted them in dismantling several of the seals within the cave." The Moon Immortal's expression suddenly grew icy. "It's all in vain. The entrance to the secret cave has already been opened. Even if we refuse, they will immediately summon their other forces to launch an attack. It's merely a matter of timing! Moreover, if we fight outside the cave, lacking the terrain and existing seals as leverage, we will find it even more difficult to escape their encirclement." The elder shook his head. "That's true. I only hope Master Han truly achieves success without delay. The Moon Fairy, unable to take her eyes off the direction where Han Li was retreating toward the horizon, glanced again. Meanwhile, the elderly man with the surname Xu gently stroked his beard, silently pondering. On the other side, Han Li’s streak of light had already traveled several ten thousand miles, surging forward with an astonishing speed. As he moved within the streak, his eyes half-closed, he placed the jade scroll upon his forehead and used his divine awareness to scan the contents recorded within. Xu had copied a considerable amount of information—not only the map of the secret cave, but even the specific pathways that had been explored inside. This saved him considerable effort! "The Divine Spirit Cultivation Technique," Han Li murmured softly to himself. The advantages of a strong divine awareness had been fully realized by him since he had once practiced the Da-Yan Technique. If this secret technique could indeed amplify his divine awareness, not only would he find it much easier to break through his cultivation bottlenecks in the future, but the number of Golden-Feeding Insects he could release at once would also increase significantly—enough to allow him to use these spiritual insects effectively in regular combat situations. In addition, once his divine awareness grew strong, it would greatly benefit him in matters such as arraying formations or refining elixirs, and other related endeavors. Thus, upon clearly understanding the profound efficacy of this technique, he immediately felt a strong determination to secure it. This kind of transcendent method could only exist within the True Immortal Realm—outside of this realm, the Spiritual Realm would never have such a technique. As for this immense opportunity right before his eyes, he naturally would not hesitate to seize it. Reflecting on this, Han Li, though usually composed and calm, felt a subtle excitement stirring within him. According to the early maps, that hidden cave should be at least one full day's journey away. The fact that the two elderly figures, despite suffering severe depletion of their vital energy, had managed to reach this location was no small feat. As for the Weng people stationed there, even when Han Li fully restored his magical power, he did not feel particularly fearful. Without any beings of the Consolidated Stage present, although he might not prevail in battle, he believed these Weng people would certainly be unable to prevent him from fleeing. After settling his strategy in mind, Han Li no longer dwelled on further thoughts. As the sound of thunder behind him roared, the Wind-Thunder Wings suddenly manifested. With a single hand gesture, he produced a sound of rushing through the air, and the light of his flight vanished instantly. In the next moment, he appeared hundreds of zhang away, then vanished again, leaving behind a shimmering streak of pale green and white light that flickered like a ghost, darting through the void. To ensure the military people of the Rong clan did not break the seal first and seize the Golden Seal script, Han Li finally expended his full magical energy to maximize his speed. What would normally take a full day's journey is now expected to be completed within half a day, reaching the hidden cave.
