"This jade slip contains the insights and secret techniques for breaking through Soul Transformation summarized by my husband and me. With your experience, Fellow Daoist, you can naturally distinguish the truth from the false very easily," Wen Qing restored her smile and raised a hand, and a verdant green light shot over.

Han Li grabbed it; it was a palm-sized emerald jade slip.

He nodded and lowered his head without standing on ceremony, infiltrating his divine sense into it to scan.

Inside, there were indeed seven or eight secret techniques and methods.

Han Li picked one at random and read it carefully.

Han Li did not notice that while he was deliberating on the truth of the contents of the jade slip, Wen Qing looked at Ling Xiaofeng, a trace of triumph flashing in her eyes.

"Not bad, it is indeed true. It is of great use to me," after a cup of tea's time, Han Li withdrew his divine sense from the jade slip and said with a relaxed expression.

"Since Fellow Daoist feels the jade slip is correct, our deal is done. My husband and I have other important matters to attend to, so we won't linger here any longer," Ling Xiaofeng's gaze flashed, and he said indifferently.

"Haha, this is still within the control of your Palace. It should be Han who says words of farewell. I will take my leave first,"

Han Li laughed, clasped his fists at the two, then green light flashed around his body, transforming into a blinding green rainbow that vanished more than twenty feet away in a flash.

The speed was so fast that even the Heavenly Star Sages could not help but change their expressions slightly.

"No wonder he is so arrogant; he truly has some divine abilities. What do you think, husband? Will that kid surnamed Han fall for the trap?" Seeing the green light vanish on the horizon in a moment, the palace-gowned woman asked her husband after withdrawing her gaze.

"As long as he has the heart to advance to Soul Transformation, it is impossible for him not to fall into the trap. Although the methods and secret techniques we gave him for breaking through Soul Transformation are not false, he will know as soon as he actually tries them. Some of the others have little effect, or are simply impossible to achieve, just empty fantasies. Only the method we provided for borrowing the power of the five elements to break through the Soul Transformation bottleneck is the most effective. And this kid is so young; now is the time to practice the Magneto-Divine Light. If it goes smoothly, he can cultivate the divine light to completion before his lifespan ends. Do you think he will give up such a shortcut that seems within reach?" Ling Xiaofeng sneered.

"That's true. We mentioned a bit about the characteristics of the Magneto-Divine Light in the secret technique, as well as the divine abilities after completion. Even without the matter of breaking through the Soul Transformation bottleneck, I'm afraid he would covet the power of this cultivation technique and not give it up easily. And as long as he truly intends to practice the Magneto-Divine Light, he will have to borrow the power of the Magneto Mountain, obediently repeating the path we have walked, and will only be able to guard Star City, with no mind to think of other things. I'm afraid by the time his lifespan ends, he will only then discover the harsh conditions for the completion of the Magneto-Divine Light. But by then, it will have been unknown how many years later. In such a long time, as long as Ling Yuling advances successfully, there is no need to fear him seeking any revenge," Wen Qing said with a smile.

"But what if Ling Yuling, this child, cannot advance to the late stage! That would be very troublesome," Ling Xiaofeng pondered for a moment before saying this.

"We have fought for so much time for her, if she still cannot advance to the late stage, it can only be said that this child is destined to be so. It would be better to extinguish the thought of controlling the Star Palace early and obediently leave Star City to become an ordinary loose cultivator," Wen Qing sighed upon hearing this.

"It is very difficult to deter those elders in the Palace without late-stage cultivation. Even if we leave some backhands for her, it cannot last long. However, our top priority is to return and pass the refining method of the Magneto Mountain to Ling Yuling immediately. Only by controlling this mountain will that kid surnamed Han be wary of Ling Yuling. Otherwise, if this person can truly endure a hundred years of wasted time and wait for us to pass away before killing his way to Star City to seize the Magneto-Divine Mountain, it would be quite troublesome. And Ling Yuling's aptitude is not bad; as long as she can find a suitable dual cultivation partner and use the power of dual cultivation and a large amount of pills, there is still a chance of advancing to the late stage," Ling Xiaofeng said indifferently.

"That is the only way. This kid's matter is resolved, and for the remaining hundred years, we must resolve the Six Paths and Wan Sangu. But unfortunately, those demon cultivators in the Outer Sea are causing trouble again. It seems we must temporarily truce with the Starfall Alliance in the near future and resolve the matter of the Ten Thousand Sea demon beasts first?" The palace-gowned woman frowned, saying helplessly.

"Hmph, these demon cultivators probably think that our Inner Sea hasn't had a Soul Transformation cultivator for many years, and the number of Great Cultivators is far less than in other periods, so they have some thoughts and want to tear up the agreement from back then. They don't think about how, since our ancestors dared to set such an agreement, why would they fear their betrayal? After so many ten thousand years of recuperation and arrangement, today's Inner Sea has long been managed by us cultivators like a copper wall and iron fortress. Even if those Rank 10 demon beasts all attacked together, they wouldn't be able to break into today's Inner Sea. Furthermore, as far as I know, the demon cultivators in the Outer Sea are not a monolithic block today," Ling Xiaofeng snorted.

"Are you talking about the struggle between the Jiao Dragon Clan and the Suanni King Clan?" Wen Qing asked with a shift in expression.

"Exactly, it is the matter between these two great demon clans. The Suanni Clan, the King Clan of the Outer Sea, was originally not much stronger than the Jiao Dragon Clan. They only sat firmly in the position of the King Clan because they had two Rank 10 demon cultivators. But three hundred years ago, that Rank 10 Great Elder of the Suanni Clan passed away. In this way, the Jiao Dragon Clan is naturally unwilling to be inferior. As long as I return and plan properly, inciting these two great demon clans to fight, our Inner Sea will be even more secure," the man said with confidence.

"Since husband is so confident, it seems it really won't be a problem. It's just that the spirit stone mine on Bi Ling Island is a pity. We just received news that top-grade spirit stones had appeared, but before we could send people to support, the demon cultivators seized the mine. I regret that I sent a message immediately to have them bring the top-grade spirit stone and all the high-tier spirit stones collected recently back to the Inner Sea, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late. Now even Elder Gui has lost his life at the hands of the Golden Jiao King," the palace-gowned woman said with extreme regret.

"There is no other way. The Outer Sea is, after all, the world of demon beasts. Previously, because there were no conflicts of interest, those high-tier demon cultivators didn't regard those low-tier demon beasts that hadn't opened their intelligence as their own kind, so they naturally turned a blind eye to the islands we established in the Outer Sea. Now that high-tier spirit stones that even they are tempted by have appeared, and these demon cultivators are not vegetarians, how could they not take action?" Ling Xiaofeng shook his head.

"Giving up the Outer Sea temporarily is also fine; it's better to shrink all our Palace's power into the Inner Sea and focus on stability before Ling Yuling takes charge of the Star Palace. However, it probably won't work just by us saying so; those loose cultivators and the Starfall Alliance won't give up the Outer Sea easily," Wen Qing said thoughtfully.

"Isn't that just right! When we return, we will open all the teleportation arrays in the city to the outside world. As long as they are willing to pay spirit stones, let them teleport to the Outer Sea as much as they want. Since the rise of the Starfall Alliance, these loose cultivators haven't been as obedient to our Star Palace as before. Taking this opportunity to give them a harsh lesson is also good! Then, when the matter of the Outer Sea demon beasts is settled, we will root out the Starfall Alliance. The Six Paths and Wan Sangu really think we have no way to leave Star City. When the day they fall comes, they will know how erroneous this idea is. Every hundred years, the Magneto Mountain has a month where the magnetic force disappears completely. During this period, my husband and I are not restricted by the Magneto Mountain at all. Hmph, by that time..." Ling Xiaofeng's face flashed with a baleful aura, and he snorted coldly with a ruthless look.

"That's true, and my grudge with this big brother, the Six Paths, will also be resolved together," the palace-gowned woman said with a cold voice.

"Why, you still can't let go of the matter from back then?" Ling Xiaofeng asked with a frown upon hearing this.

"How could I easily let go of this matter? If I hadn't met you back then, I would have turned into a pile of yellow earth long ago. In the last great war, if it hadn't been for the restriction of the Magneto-Divine Light, I would never have let him slip away from under my eyes," the palace-gowned woman's beautiful face turned ferocious.

Ling Xiaofeng remained silent for a moment after seeing this, finally sighing lightly.

"Good, since that's the case. Next time we kill them, I will leave the Six Paths for you to deal with personally."

After saying this, Ling Xiaofeng transformed into a white light and shot back along the way he came.

Wen Qing remained in place, her expression shifting for a while before she stomped her foot and also drove her escape light to chase after him.

At this moment, Han Li was already on his way to Kui Star Island.

He naturally did not know that on the second day after he returned to the Inner Sea from the Outer Sea, Silver Shark Island received news that almost the entire army of cultivators on Bi Ling Island had been wiped out.

At the same time, news that a top-grade spirit stone mine had been discovered in the island's mine vein spread, shocking the entire Star Sea.

And just two days after he met with the Heavenly Star Sages, the high-tier demon cultivators of the Outer Sea issued an expulsion order to all human cultivator islands in the Outer Sea, stating that all humans must leave the Outer Sea completely within three months, or they would all be wiped out without exception.

This time, neither loose cultivators nor the various large forces in the Inner Sea could sit still.

For the cultivators of the Chaotic Star Sea, for so many years, the demon cores of Outer Sea demon beasts had become as indispensable as spirit stones, affecting almost every sect and force. They all had extremely huge interests in the Outer Sea, so how could they easily let go?

For a time, all the major forces and countless loose cultivators gathered toward the Outer Sea, with the Star Palace and the Starfall Alliance both opening their teleportation arrays to the outside.

Among them, because Bi Ling Island had a high-tier spirit stone mine and a top-grade spirit stone had appeared, nearly half of the cultivators teleported to the sea area where this island was located.

In the sea near Bi Ling Island, countless demon beasts of all ranks appeared, and many unknown high-tier demon cultivators frequently appeared on Bi Ling Island.

The war between the human cultivation world and the Outer Sea demon beasts seemed to be on the verge of breaking out!

Just at this chaotic time, a rumor spread among the cultivators of the Star Sea that the Heavenly Void Cauldron had reappeared, and that there were unknown spirit pills in the cauldron that could allow a Core Formation cultivator to advance to the late-stage Nascent Soul across ranks in less than two hundred years.

No one knew where this news came from, but it spread wider and wider in a strange way...
