"Little Li, let's begin!" Su Yuan immediately said. "Alright!" Little Li nodded quickly, though she wasn't sure what exactly she needed to do. Within Su Yuan's body, 118 spiritual apertures simultaneously released divine sense and true essence. Among them, 36 apertures led by the sea of consciousness aperture poured out vast amounts of divine sense, transforming into 36 streams of power that entered Little Li's body. Little Li stiffened momentarily. In that instant, she felt the illusion that her entire body was being completely seen through. For the first time, she discovered how peculiar her internal structure was - those thirty-six streams of power followed illusory meridians, forming a complete meridian rotation diagram! Her body also contained 118 hidden spiritual apertures, which Su Yuan's divine sense activated one by one. This process was filled with extremely unusual sensations. Little Li instinctively wanted to stop Su Yuan's actions, but she restrained herself, suppressing her natural impulses with great effort. After completing a full meridian rotation, Su Yuan's power finally reached the sea of consciousness aperture, quickly penetrating into Little Li's sea of consciousness. Little Li also saw for the first time a purple illusory crystal core floating in her sea of consciousness. She had never noticed this before - it seemed to have appeared only after Su Yuan completed the meridian rotation diagram! "How does it feel? It might hurt a bit soon, but it'll be over quickly!" "No problem!" Little Li affirmed. Su Yuan nodded, his gaze fixed on the illusory purple crystal core. It bore 118 overlapping layers of patterns that formed a mysterious diagram so complex it could make one dizzy at first glance. Yet Su Yuan could clearly see traces of natural formation restrictions within it. By analyzing the 118 restrictions of the natural formation, Su Yuan understood its operational logic, and his divine sense began rapidly circulating along these patterns. "Su... Su Yuan, what should I do?" Little Li asked as she felt a sharp pain in her consciousness. The purple crystal core trembled slightly, affecting Su Yuan's engraving movements. "Open your mind and accept my divine sense. Don't worry, there won't be any major issues!" Su Yuan's voice was uncharacteristically gentle. Little Li calmed down internally and tried her best to cooperate with Su Yuan in refining the purple crystal core. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢 Simultaneously, 82 of Su Yuan's spiritual apertures, with the dantian aperture at their core, released vast amounts of true essence that merged into the secret realm's core within the palace ahead. Here, the formation core composed of 118 layers of formation patterns was equally extremely complex. Normally, refining it would require at least the power of a Divine Transformation realm cultivator. But because Su Yuan's energy was so compatible, the requirements for refinement were significantly reduced. Su Yuan's true essence flowed into the formation, following the most correct path until it reached the first formation core, where it imprinted Su Yuan's mark. Everything proceeded smoothly. Su Yuan sighed in relief and began refining the second and third formation cores. During this process, the large reserve of spirit stones Su Yuan had prepared were rapidly consumed, drawn by his 118 natural formation restriction apertures before being directly transferred to the refinement process. Both the formation core and the core in Little Li's sea of consciousness were being refined simultaneously. No accidents occurred. In this completely safe secret realm where no one could disturb them, it was truly difficult for unexpected factors to emerge. After 118 minutes of methodical refinement, Su Yuan finally completed the dual refinement of both Little Li's sea of consciousness core and the palace's formation core simultaneously! In an instant, Su Yuan established an extremely close connection with the entire spiritual treasure. Little Li opened her dazed eyes, looking at Su Yuan with complete dependence. Her body also underwent changes at this moment - originally only capable of maintaining a spirit form, under the supply of Su Yuan's essence, energy, and spirit, she began developing a physical body. She now possessed the ability to switch between spirit and physical forms. Little Li looked at her changes in amazement, exclaiming excitedly. Meanwhile, Su Yuan closed his eyes, rapidly absorbing massive amounts of information. Fortunately, Su Yuan still had some time remaining on his "Superlative Comprehension" entry, allowing him to quickly grasp this information and preliminarily understand this spiritual treasure's functions. The treasure's true name was [Floating Light Sun-Moon Vessel], a peak sixth-grade cave heaven-type spiritual treasure that normally required a Void Refining expert to fully control. Its first function was storage - it could contain one type of heaven-earth wonder, currently occupied by the Silver Spirit Waterfall! The second function was suppression! Using the power of the entire cave heaven to suppress cultivators - those below Divine Transformation would have no power to resist, while it could suppress up to seventy percent of a Void Refining cultivator's power, making it incredibly powerful! But Su Yuan couldn't activate this yet - he lacked sufficient magic power to drive it. Currently, he could at most suppress Golden Core realm cultivators and slightly affect low-level Nascent Soul cultivators. The third function was spirit gathering, just as Su Yuan had guessed earlier. As a cave heaven spiritual treasure constructed on the foundation of the Yuan Pool's natural formation restrictions, it naturally possessed the ability to accumulate spiritual energy. Beyond being convenient, this ability gave Su Yuan a pleasant surprise - he could fully activate the Floating Light Vessel once. Although it would require a hundred years to naturally accumulate enough energy for another use, this was already sufficient and became Su Yuan's current strongest trump card. Beyond these three main functions, there were many others, but they weren't particularly necessary to explain. Su Yuan actually estimated that the founding ancestor had likely reached the seventh-grade Body Unity realm. To him, this treasure might have truly been just a storage item, and an outdated one at that, hence why it was left as an inheritance. The ancestor didn't die before leaving the inheritance - he left it behind before departing. If this spiritual treasure had been truly important to the ancestor, he wouldn't have left it behind so casually. A crisp voice interrupted Su Yuan's thoughts. "Su Yuan, you succeeded!" Little Li pounced, nuzzling against Su Yuan's chest. Su Yuan stroked Little Li's newly fleshy body and smiled, "We succeeded! Now you'll have to follow me - no chance to regret it now." "I don't regret it!" Little Li said, lifting her small face. Little Cai also poked her head in through the doorway. Su Yuan praised, "Little Cai also did well protecting me!" Little Cai happily floated around. Meanwhile, Little Li's eyes sparkled with an idea. "Su Yuan, since I've essentially been reborn now, shouldn't I get a new name? 'Little Li' is too casual!" "Oh? Do you have any ideas yourself?" Su Yuan asked, surprised. "No, you pick one for me!" "How about Su Li?" "That's still 'Li'!" "No, Su Li!" Su Yuan shared his thoughts with Little Li. Her eyes brightened as she nodded, "That's acceptable." She smugly glanced at Little Cai, who looked back with innocent confusion. Only then did Su Yuan notice particularly strong thought echoes in his surroundings. Previously occupied with refining the Floating Light Vessel, he hadn't paid attention to these. Activating his [Mind Echo] entry, Su Yuan's consciousness instantly crossed most of the sect, arriving at a particular peak - the Three Ultimates Peak. In the inner disciple courtyard area of Three Ultimates Peak, several newly promoted inner disciples including Gu You were engaged in successive challenges with senior disciples. Several disciples had already been defeated, their bodies covered in bruises. Frowning, Su Yuan followed the thought waves past these disciples to the core disciple area, where others were also thinking of him. Soon, he passed the core disciples and reached the true disciple area, finally locking onto a Golden Core true disciple. "How interesting - Xu Guangwen, former top true disciple of Hidden Peak, at Golden Core peak cultivation, wants to seize the position of Hidden Peak Lord. When Three Ultimates Sect peak lords accumulate enough contributions and resign, they receive resources to break through to Nascent Soul. Xu Guangwen covets these resources and thus targets the Hidden Peak Lord position, with me being the biggest obstacle now." Su Yuan understood clearly. He could confirm Xu Guangwen likely didn't know the true meaning of the Hidden Peak Lord position - this secret was known to few even among elders. Of course, one could find it by thoroughly researching the library, but most cultivators were too busy with their training to bother with unnecessary books. Reactivating Mind Echo, scenes from throughout the sect appeared before Su Yuan's eyes until he focused on a secret realm where dozens of Nascent Soul elders and several Divine Transformation elders were discussing Su Yuan's future resource allocation. The resources were divided into three tiers - the lowest being at Nascent Soul elder level, while the highest matched the full allocation for sect's Divine Transformation elders. The elders argued intensely over which tier to choose, with some mentioning Three Ultimates Peak's Xu Guangwen, wanting to use this to test Su Yuan's true potential before deciding the resource tier. Watching these scenes, Su Yuan gradually understood the whole situation. No wonder there was such a cliché scenario of seniors bullying juniors - it was actually related to his future resource allocation. "Tsk tsk, this Mind Echo entry seems insignificant but can be quite useful sometimes!" Su Yuan praised silently. Even when observing those Divine Transformation elders, none noticed him - the entry's concealment effect was remarkable. Without it, he might not have intervened to help those newcomers - what harm was there in letting them suffer a bit? It might even increase their cultivation enthusiasm. "Xu Guangwen is at Golden Core peak - these old fellows really think highly of me!" Su Yuan rubbed his chin. "I'm leaving Immortal Seed Valley first! I'll release you two after reaching Three Ultimates Peak," Su Yuan told the two little ones. Little Li immediately grew excited, "What's the outside world like?" Su Yuan smiled, "You'll find out soon!" With a flash, he exited the Trial Secret Realm. When he reappeared, he was outside the secret realm's entrance. With a wave of his hand, a cyan jade vessel materialized in the air, adorned with depictions of sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and floating lights. The vessel flew into Su Yuan's hand before disappearing. The secret realm entrance remained - within a certain range of the Floating Light Vessel, he could freely open and close the secret realm portal. Leaving Immortal Seed Valley wouldn't affect this portal's operation, so he decided to leave it here unchanged for now. Su Yuan turned and took a step forward, leaving behind trails of starlight as resplendent as the Milky Way in his wake.
