"According to the regulations, our Crimson Sunset Sect currently has two slots to enter the Thousand Streams Secret Realm."

At this moment, Master Binghuo continued:

"One slot is in my hand, and the other slot is with Senior Brother Yanhuo."

"Only two slots?"

Ji Haoyuan was somewhat astonished.

This was something he had not anticipated.

The prestigious Golden Core sect, the Crimson Sunset Sect.

And in some sense, being a native sect of the Hongduan Mountain Range, it actually only has two slots.

Isn't this really too...

"Do you think it's too few?"

Master Binghuo glanced at Ji Haoyuan with her beautiful eyes.

"You must know that in the center of the Hongduan Mountain Range, the Golden Core sect, the Long River Sect, with three Golden Core cultivators, is a true native sect in that region, yet they only have four slots.

The other two, the Netherworld Sect and the Shadow Soul Sect, also only have two slots each.

And this is still because we have the advantage of being local."

It makes sense upon reflection.

A place like the Thousand Streams Secret Realm, producing various Core Formation spiritual objects.

How could the four Golden Core sects of the Hongduan Mountain Range swallow it alone?

There would definitely be intervention from external forces.

Especially those so-called great Golden Core sects.

Willing to share some slots with you is already because you are a native sect, and it's a result of mutual compromise from all sides.

If you're still dissatisfied with this, then it's being ungrateful and greedy.

Ji Haoyuan doesn't even need to think about what the outcome would be; it would definitely be extremely miserable.

"Alright.

Now I ask you, do you want to go to the Thousand Streams Secret Realm?"

Master Binghuo looked at Ji Haoyuan again with her beautiful eyes.

Ji Haoyuan's expression immediately turned solemn.

"Since it's True Man's favor, this junior is naturally willing to go.

However..."

Ji Haoyuan hesitated slightly in his tone but still said:

"After all, this junior is only an Honored Guest Elder. If True Man insists on giving this spot to me, would there be any objections from the other Daoist friends?"

What he referred to as others obviously weren't those Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Crimson Sunset Sect but Master Yanhuo, who is of the same Golden Core level as Master Binghuo.

After all, in the end, so-called Honored Guest Elders, in a sense, are not truly insiders.

Given such a precious slot by Master Binghuo, it might inevitably stir up some criticism from others within the sect.

Even if they don't mention it, there would certainly be some thoughts in mind.

Most importantly, when news of this reaches Master Yanhuo, he might seize the opportunity to question Master Binghuo.

However, Master Binghuo seemed indifferent to this.

She shook her head.

"How I make decisions is not something for others in the sect to meddle in.

You can rest assured about this matter.

Moreover, throughout our Crimson Sunset Sect, no one is more suitable to enter the Thousand Streams Secret Realm than you."

Upon saying this, Master Binghuo's beautiful eyes fixed on Ji Haoyuan, and she slowly spoke:

"But by giving you this slot, I also hope you can help me with a matter when the time comes."

Hearing this, Ji Haoyuan was immediately invigorated.

He was well aware that Master Binghuo willing to grant him such a precious secret realm slot might have some instructions or arrangements for him.

Given his current relationship with Master Binghuo, he had some self-awareness.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan solemnly responded:

"If True Man has any requests, please instruct me. As long as it's within this junior's capabilities, I will do my utmost.

Even if it's beyond this junior's abilities, I will still give it my all."

Master Binghuo was evidently quite satisfied with Ji Haoyuan's attitude.

At that moment, she made a slight gesture in the air.

Soon, a jade green fruit appeared before Ji Haoyuan.

"This fruit is called Jade Fruit. It grows in the Thousand Streams Secret Realm.

I hope that once you enter the secret realm, you can find this fruit for me.

If successful, when you return, I can also aid you in forming your Golden Core in the future."

Although Ji Haoyuan didn't know what effect the Jade Fruit that Master Binghuo asked him to find had,

he still seriously replied, "Please rest assured, True Man. If this fruit exists within the Thousand Streams Secret Realm, I will definitely find it for you."

"Good!"

Master Binghuo's eyes showed a trace of approval.

She said, "The opening of the Thousand Streams Secret Realm is about a year away.

During this time, you can stay and cultivate here diligently. I can also provide you with some assistance."

At this, a Storage Bag fell into Ji Haoyuan's hands.

Ji Haoyuan glanced inside, and he was slightly surprised.

The Storage Bag contained numerous Star Dust Sand and other rare methods he had seen from Master Binghuo before.

Especially that Star Dust Sand.

He had already learned earlier.

This material is produced only in places where starlight is abundant, under constant exposure to starlight.

It is incredibly expensive.

At least, Ji Haoyuan admitted that in his current condition, buying more than a pound of Star Dust Sand would cost him almost half of his resources.

Yet now, in the Storage Bag, there was more than ten pounds of Star Dust Sand.

Such a generous gift already signifies a rather substantial favor.

Besides these Star Dust Sands, there were also many treasured techniques and methods.

Collected by Master Binghuo herself over the years.

Ji Haoyuan had no doubt that once he fully absorbed everything in the Storage Bag.

His personal strength would inevitably make a significant leap.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan sincerely thanked Master Binghuo:

"Thank you, True Man, for your generosity. Haoyuan will not disappoint you when the time comes."

"Mmm, go ahead.

This is a Cave Mansion Token I've prepared for you; with this token, you can go to the cave mansion I have prepared for you to cultivate."

While speaking, another token fell into Ji Haoyuan's hands.

Seeing this, Ji Haoyuan no longer hesitated.

He accepted the token and headed toward the cave mansion indicated on it.

Spring passed and autumn came.

More than half a year quickly went by.

In this nearly year-long period,

Ji Haoyuan had already fully absorbed all the resources given to him by Master Binghuo.

At this time, his Star Battle Body had completely reached the second-tier's maximum level.

He even vaguely touched upon the threshold of the third tier.

Ji Haoyuan had no doubt that his Star Battle Body now could easily crush the Talisman Treasure Yu Changkong had unleashed that day without any cost.

Apart from the improvement in the Star Battle Body, Ji Haoyuan had also merged his Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique with a sword technique called the Great Profound Yang Sword Technique, forming a new sword art, named the Great Sun Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique.

The sword light possessed the might of the great sun.

And it also retained the speed of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Draw.

With one swing, the enemy often found themselves beheaded before they could react, or directly turned to ash by the Great Sun Sword Qi on the sword.

With his profound foundation right now, Ji Haoyuan even had a slight confidence of assaulting the Golden Core without relying on Core Formation spiritual objects.

However, he ultimately dismissed the idea.

Firstly, recklessly attempting to form the Golden Core was not his will.

Secondly, and most importantly, his current Cultivation Technique was not perfected.

If he attempted to form the Golden Core now, even if he succeeded by luck, the Golden Core he could form might not be the perfect Golden Core he had envisioned.

Therefore.

The journey to the Thousand Streams Secret Realm and the place marked on that map must be visited one by one.
