After bidding farewell to the tiger-masked man, Han Li immediately posted a task in the Immemorial Union to identify the white giant egg and the cyan feather, and then removed the bull-headed mask.

After putting away the mask, he immediately took out the Star-Shifting Mother-Child Disk, removed the Star-Shifting Stone from it, replaced it with eight Rank Two Star-Shifting Stones, and then activated it with a spell.

Dazzling light bloomed from the Star-Shifting Mother-Child Disk, but the disk also trembled violently, emitting a strange spatial fluctuation.

Having been reminded by the tiger-masked man, Han Li didn't feel surprised. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately took out a Big Dipper Celestial Star Disk and half of the Star-Shifting Stones, placed them on it, and urged them with a magic formula.

Buzz!

The surface of the Star-Shifting Mother-Child Disk suddenly lit up with a strong light, emitting an increasingly intense spatial fluctuation, which appeared very unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.

This scene made Han Li's pupils shrink slightly.

With a "bang," after this change lasted for less than two or three breaths, the array disk finally exploded, shattering into pieces.

Before it shattered, the Big Dipper Celestial Star Disk also disappeared into the light.

Seeing this, Han Li still felt a little uneasy. After all, this new set of array disks had almost exhausted most of his current wealth. If it was destroyed in the spatial fluctuation, it would really make his heart ache.

He muttered to himself, quickly urging the Big Dipper Celestial Star Disk.

As the mysterious inscriptions on the surface of the array disk lit up one circle after another, finally with a "buzz," a bright blue light emerged, condensing into a blue light array above the array disk, with countless white light spots floating within, like the twinkling stars in the night sky.

The void in the center of the blue light array shifted, and a large mass of black liquid emerged, which was Heavy Water.

The transfer process was extremely smooth, without any delay.

Seeing this, Han Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. With a wave of his hand, he collected the mass of Heavy Water.

The Big Dipper Celestial Star Disk flickered repeatedly, and clusters of Heavy Water emerged. The Heavy Water condensed by the Earth Fiend Avatar over the years was completely transferred in only half an hour.

Han Li touched the True Water Pouch at his waist and nodded with satisfaction.

The Heavy Water inside had reached the extent of nearly two small streams. With so much Heavy Water, there were many things he could do.

Although it cost him a lot, it was worth it as long as he could solve this problem that had plagued him for many years.

After putting away the Big Dipper Celestial Star Disk, he sat in meditation in place for a day to completely restore his state of mind to peace. He then took out the *True Word Wheel Incantation* and carefully reviewed the first level of the spell from beginning to end, before continuing to cultivate and comprehend.

Time flew by, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the cave, Han Li sat in meditation, motionless like a sculpture, but a faint golden light floated around his body.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Although the *True Word Wheel Incantation* was profound and abstruse, he had been cultivating it unusually smoothly over the past three months. The bottlenecks mentioned in the annotated scripture that were difficult to overcome, he had directly passed through as naturally as water flowing into a channel, with almost no effort at all.

The first time this strange situation occurred, he thought it was an accident or a fluke, but when it happened again for the second and third time, he couldn't help but start to wonder.

"Could it be... that my physique is particularly suitable for cultivating this technique?"

It was no wonder he thought so. According to the annotated scripture, each of these bottlenecks would at least trap cultivators for several years, or even decades or hundreds of years. Every year, many people directly gave up because of this.

If there was no special reason, he would never believe that he would be so smooth.

However, he asked himself that from the beginning of his path to immortality, his aptitude was mediocre, even worse than most people, let alone possessing any spiritually gifted body.

However, when he later cultivated to the point where he directly crossed almost every insurmountable bottleneck without spending much effort, he was both filled with doubts and overjoyed at the same time.

In any case, being able to go so smoothly was not a bad thing.

According to this progress, the True Word Treasure Wheel, which most people might not be able to condense successfully even after hundreds or thousands of years, he would probably be able to succeed in a few years.

At the thought of this, he immediately stopped thinking about it and continued to cultivate with concentration.

Time flew by, and three years passed in an instant.

Clouds drifted over Scarlet Cloud Peak, like countless silk ribbons dancing. A round of red sun slowly rose from the east, casting golden rays of light, illuminating the peak in a faint golden color.

Everything on Scarlet Cloud Peak was as before. If there was any change, it was that the fire miasma that originally permeated the entire mountain had unknowingly receded a lot.

Below the middle of the mountain, those scarlet fire miasmas still pervaded, but above the middle of the mountain, it had returned to clarity.

Meng Yungui and others who lived here came to the peak early in the morning as soon as the sky was dawning, and after breathing and exhaling towards the rising sun, they each took charge of cleaning up the various places on the peak.

Everyone had a clear division of labor. Although there were only ten people, they managed the large courtyard, including the nearby spirit herb garden, and the cave of the mountain-guarding spirit beast at the waist of the mountain in an orderly manner.

Although Scarlet Cloud Peak was not considered a superior spiritual vein in the entire Bell Toll Mountain Range, the concentration of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy here was still far from comparable to other places in Ancient Cloud Continent. It could be regarded as a blessed land suitable for cultivation. In addition, with the help of some pills bestowed by Han Li before, their cultivation bases had also improved to varying degrees.

In particular, Meng Qianqian's cultivation base had broken through two minor realms in a row, and she was now a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator, with restrained aura, and only one step away from condensing the Golden Core, reaching the Pseudo-Core Realm.

Compared with three years ago, the girl's childishness had faded a lot, her face became more and more exquisite, and she became more and more pure and beautiful.

"Elder Li has been in closed-door cultivation for quite a while this time, hasn't he?" Meng Qianqian cleaned the spirit herb garden, her big eyes occasionally looking towards the tightly closed cave behind her.

"When a cultivator reaches the level of an immortal like Elder Li, it is common to be in closed-door cultivation for hundreds or thousands of years. You are at a critical moment in condensing the Golden Core recently. Are you short of spirit stones and pills?" Meng Yungui asked.

"No, I'm not," Meng Qianqian said lightly.

"Qianqian, you must remember that it is already great luck that we were chosen by Elder Li to come here to serve. Although Elder Li doesn't have any airs with us, we must not forget our identities as servants," Meng Yungui stopped what he was doing and earnestly exhorted.

"Brother is right, Qianqian understands," Meng Qianqian lowered her head and nodded slowly.

"I still have some spirit stones here, you take them first..." Seeing this, Meng Yungui's expression relaxed. He rubbed Meng Qianqian's head and was about to say something.

Rumble!

A loud noise like the thunder of the Nine Heavens suddenly exploded, and the entire Scarlet Cloud Peak shook, causing many of the birds and beasts that inhabited it to fly away to their original places.

Immediately afterwards, the originally clear blue sky suddenly changed color. Large patches of dark clouds appeared out of thin air, covering the entire sky above Scarlet Cloud Peak, rolling and surging.

The Heaven and Earth spiritual energy surged wildly, gathering in rolling waves, forming a huge spiritual energy vortex.

The center of the spiritual energy vortex was the cave in the back mountain.

Faced with such a dramatic change, Meng Yungui and Meng Qianqian, although showing surprise, were not too shocked.

The others were the same.

Their Elder Li was unfathomable. They didn't know what kind of magical technique he was cultivating, but he often caused such changes in the world. It happened almost once a month, and they were already used to it.

Meng Yungui looked at the dark clouds in the sky, his brow furrowed slightly.

The scene before him seemed a little different from the usual dramatic changes.

"Meng Yungui, Meng Yungui, how can you forget what you just said to Qianqian? How can you guess about Elder Li's affairs? Just be your servant in peace. Ignorance is bliss!" He immediately shook his head, cut off the thoughts in his heart, and continued to bury himself in cleaning.

Inside the secret room of the cave, Han Li was enveloped in a dazzling pale golden light, and his facial features looked a little blurry.

The Heaven and Earth spiritual energy gathered from all directions. The pale golden light on his body became brighter and brighter, forming a pale golden sea of light that was almost impossible to look at directly, submerging the entire secret room.

The huge spiritual fluctuation surged out towards the surroundings like a tide, but was blocked by the restrictions around the cave.

A full hour passed before the momentum of the gathering of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy slowly stopped.

The dark clouds above Scarlet Cloud Peak gradually dissipated, restoring the previous azure sky, clear sky and fresh air. The scene of the dark clouds covering the sky just now seemed like an illusion.

Inside the secret room of the cave, with a tremor of the grand sea of light, it converged towards Han Li's body like a long whale absorbing water, and disappeared into his body within a few breaths.

A golden light spot appeared above Han Li's lower abdomen, flickering on and off, dazzlingly bright when it was bright, and almost non-existent when it was dim.

The golden light spot seemed to be breathing with a small mouth. With each flicker, a large amount of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy poured into it.

At the same time, with a buzzing sound from his back, a pale golden circle about a foot in size appeared, rotating slowly.

A golden auspicious cloud formed from golden auspicious energy appeared around the circle, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth spiritual energy resonated strongly with it, emitting a wonderful梵唱 sound, as if praising the golden circle.

The auspicious cloud rotated rapidly around the circle, gradually turning into semi-transparent strands of light, which converged together. After a flash, they turned into two semi-transparent runes, engraved on the circle.

The runes were extremely agile, constantly flashing and twisting like living things.

A subtle fluctuation of law emanated from the two runes.

Han Li slowly opened his eyes, lowered his head to observe his body, especially paused on the golden light spot, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

After three years of hard work, he had finally opened the first Immortal Aperture in his body, which could be regarded as truly taking the first step in cultivating the True Immortal Realm.

And the pale golden circle on his back was the "True Word Treasure Wheel".
