Chapter 1766
"Golden Seal Script!"
Han Li's pupils shrank, and his expression changed slightly.
"Indeed, actually, there were other Fellow Daoists with us originally, but they have all fallen. That Golden Seal Script was also discovered by us and the Rong clan people in a secret cave." The old man's expression was uncertain for a while before he finally sighed and said.
Han Li stared at the old man, not asking anything, knowing that the other party would definitely elaborate.
Sure enough, after the old man paused, he continued:
"But before we could break the barrier and engrave the entire spiritual text, we fell into a trap set by the Rong clan people. The other Fellow Daoists fell on the spot, and only I and Fairy Yue managed to escape by casting secret techniques. We also suffered damage to our vitality and cannot take any more risks. If Brother Han is interested in this cultivation technique, you can try it. By the way, that secret cave is extremely hidden, and besides this Golden Seal Script cultivation technique, there might be other treasures hidden there."
"Oh, there is such a thing! Where is the secret cave? After such a long time, wouldn't those Rong clan people have already succeeded and left?" Han Li thought about it and asked.
"Brother Han, rest assured, the barrier in the secret cave is extremely powerful, and the Golden Seal Script is divided into several parts. Even though so much time has passed, I'm afraid they haven't been able to break all the barriers and obtain the complete cultivation technique. As long as we rush over immediately, it's nine times out of ten that we can still make it in time." Fairy Yue's eyes flickered, and she also explained.
"How many Rong clan people are there?" Han Li was moved in his heart and asked.
"There should be about ten or so. These Rong clan people are extremely cunning. At first, when we encountered them at the secret cave, they only showed half their manpower, and then invited us to explore this secret cave together. As a result, when they saw the Golden Seal Script, they suddenly turned against us and revealed the other half of their manpower. We were outnumbered, which is why we ended up like this. Even though you, Fellow Daoist, have vast divine abilities, you cannot fight so many people head-on. You can only sneak into the secret cave and act according to the situation." The old man seemed to have thought about this for a long time and suggested.
"Ten or so, that's indeed not easy to fight head-on. However, Han has a question: did the two of you know about the existence of this Golden Seal Script beforehand, and did you know what kind of cultivation technique or secret technique it records? As far as I know, there are not many people in the entire Tianyun who can recognize this kind of spiritual text." Han Li smiled and asked after pondering.
"This..."
"Brother Han is extremely intelligent; it seems I can't hide anything from you. The two of us did indeed know about the secret cave and this Golden Seal Script from our clan's elders beforehand. And Xu and I do indeed understand the Golden Seal Script. This spiritual text should record a secret technique called 'Refining God Technique'!"
The old man hesitated, but the woman admitted it calmly.
"Refining God Technique"
Han Li blinked, somewhat surprised.
"According to an elder in the clan, this technique seems extremely mysterious and can increase divine sense by several times. If one can cultivate it to success, it will be very useful for breaking through the Body Integration and even future bottlenecks." The old man replied without any concealment.
"Increasing divine sense by several times! Impossible, how could there be such a heaven-defying cultivation technique in the world." Han Li's expression changed, and he cried out in shock.
"Fellow Daoist Xu's words are not false. Our predecessors in the two clans actually learned of the existence of the secret cave and this Golden Seal Script during previous openings of the Guanghan Realm. That's why they knew a thing or two about the efficacy of this Refining God Technique. However, because the records were too vague, our two clans have spent a great deal of effort over the years to find the location of the secret cave. But because the barrier at the entrance of the secret cave is very mysterious, one must also have some understanding of the Golden Seal Script to break the barrier and enter the cave. That's why our two clans have been searching for information on the Golden Seal Script throughout the entire Thunderous Continent for these years, and it was only just before this opening of the Guanghan Realm that Xu and I finally understood seven or eight out of ten of the Golden Seal Script, and had the confidence to enter the secret cave. Now that I think about it, those Rong clan people appeared so coincidentally, just as we had broken the entrance barrier. They must have been watching our actions for a long time. They should have known about the secret cave through other channels long ago." The woman explained in detail.
"If this Refining God Technique is truly so mysterious, I don't mind making a trip. However, Han knows nothing about the Golden Seal Script; even if I obtain this technique, it seems useless." Han Li's expression was uncertain for a while before he said.
"Hehe, that's easy to handle. As long as Brother Han obtains this cultivation technique and is willing to give Xu and Fairy Yue a copy each, the two of us are willing to pass on all the Golden Seal Script we have learned, so that you can successfully comprehend this technique. It can be considered as compensation for your risk, Fellow Daoist." Seeing that Han Li was truly moved, the old man was overjoyed and replied.
Fairy Yue didn't say anything on the side, clearly also tacitly agreeing to this.
"Since the two Fellow Daoists have said so, Han has no choice but to make this trip. Brother Xu, copy a map for me." Han Li finally made up his mind and said calmly.
"Fellow Daoist, wait a moment, I will copy the map immediately." The old man was overjoyed and agreed readily.
Flipping a hand, he held a jade slip, placed it on his forehead, and pale white light flashed incessantly.
In just a moment, the jade slip had copied the map recorded in the old man's divine sense.
"Brother Han, be careful, and Fairy Yue and I will wait for your good news!" The old man handed the jade slip over, full of smiles.
"The two of you should rest on the island not far away. If Han truly obtains this Golden Seal Script, I will naturally return to meet with the two of you." Han Li took the jade slip and said in a deep voice.
Then, green light flashed on his body, and he transformed into a green rainbow and tore through the air, leaving.
After a few flashes, the green rainbow vanished at the end of the horizon.
"Brother Xu, what do you think are the chances of Brother Han succeeding?" After the escape light vanished completely, the woman withdrew her gaze and asked.
"Hard to say. If it were an ordinary upper clan member, naturally there would be almost no chance. But this person's divine abilities shown earlier were unfathomable, no worse than an early-stage Sacred clan member. If luck is on his side, there should be about a fifty percent chance. Don't forget, there is also a particularly powerful guy among those Rong clan people. You and I joined forces and were still injured by him." The old man pondered for a good while before saying slowly.
"Fifty percent! That's already not bad. Our two clans have planned this for a long time, but an accident happened during execution. If we don't bring the Refining God Technique back to the clan, you and I know what the consequences will be." The woman sighed lightly.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who would have thought that a group of Rong clan people would suddenly kill their way in halfway and ruin our affairs." The old man replied helplessly.
"If we had known these Rong clan people were plotting against us from the start, we wouldn't have joined forces with them, helping them break so many barriers in the cave in vain." Fairy Yue's expression suddenly became icy.
"It wouldn't have mattered. The entrance to the secret cave had already been opened; even if we hadn't agreed, they would have immediately called the other half of their people to attack. It was just a matter of time! Besides, if we had fought outside the secret cave, we wouldn't have had the terrain and barriers to rely on, and we wouldn't have been able to escape the Rong clan's encirclement." The old man shook his head and said.
"That is true. I only hope Brother Han can truly succeed." Fairy Yue couldn't help but look again toward the horizon where Han Li had fled.
And the Xu-surname old man stroked his beard, his expression lost in thought.
On the other side, Han Li's escape light was already tens of thousands of miles away, shooting forward at an incredible speed.
Within the escape light, he half-closed his eyes and placed the jade slip on his forehead, scanning the contents with his divine sense.
The Xu-surname old man had copied quite a bit; not only was there a map of the secret cave, but even the path he had explored in the secret cave was marked out.
This saved him quite a bit of trouble!
"Refining God Technique," Han Li muttered to himself in a voice that could barely be heard.
He had long ago fully experienced the benefits of a powerful divine sense after cultivating the Great Expansion Technique back then.
If this secret technique could truly increase his divine sense by several times, not only would it be much easier to break through bottlenecks than for ordinary people in the future, but the number of Gold-Devouring Beetles he could release at once would also greatly increase, enough for him to use these spirit insects in normal battles.
Besides this, after his divine sense became powerful, it would also be of great benefit in other aspects such as formation setting and alchemy.
Therefore, the moment he heard the mysterious efficacy of this technique, he had been determined to obtain it.
This kind of heaven-defying cultivation technique could only possibly exist in the True Immortal Realm; leaving this realm, it was impossible for it to exist in the Spirit Realm.
And this heaven-sent opportunity delivered to his doorstep, he naturally wouldn't let go easily.
Han Li thought this way, and even though his heart was always as calm as water, he felt a slight excitement.
According to the map, the secret cave should be a full day's journey away. It wasn't easy for the Xu-surname old man and the other to escape to this place while their vitality was damaged.
As for the Rong clan people guarding there, Han Li had no fear in his heart now that his magic power was fully restored.
Without an existence at the Body Integration stage, even if he couldn't defeat them, if he wanted to escape, how could these Rong clan people stop him?
With his plan settled, Han Li didn't think anymore, and thunder rang out behind him as the Wind-Thunder Wings emerged.
Then he pinched a spell with one hand, and with the sound of air being torn apart, the escape light vanished without a trace after a flash.
The next moment, he appeared over a hundred feet away, and after another flash, he vanished again.
Looking from afar, a green-white light thread flickered in the void, traveling back and forth like a ghost.
To prevent those Rong clan people from breaking the barrier first and taking away the Golden Seal Script.
Han Li finally opened his escape speed to the maximum without sparing his magic power.
The journey that originally required a day was estimated to be reached in just half a day.
