Chapter 832 I, Han Li, am the number one cultivator in the human realm!

Shi Hao carefully put the blue forehead bone and several golden willow leaves into his cave, his desire to find the truth growing stronger.

He understood that although the previous era had brought about the end of the world, the great war had not truly ended.

It may have been suppressed, delayed, or sealed away, but one day it will rise again, and the flames of war will once again sweep across the land.

By then, he must have enough strength to face the storm and protect those he wants to protect.

"Become stronger."

Shi Hao said in a low voice, a determined light flashing in his eyes: "I want to reach the pinnacle of the divine path. Only in this way can I truly protect everything and find out everything."

However, the moment he finished speaking, a deep buzzing sound came from the cave.

The sound was like the long tolling of an ancient bell, carrying a lingering resonance that seemed to transcend time and space, causing the void within the entire stone chamber to begin to distort.

Shi Hao's expression changed, and he quickly opened the cave. He saw that the blue forehead bone was trembling violently, emitting rings of blue light, as if something was awakening inside.

"not good!"

Cao Yusheng's expression changed drastically: "This forehead bone has endured for countless years; I never expected it could still move. The owner of this bone must have been incredibly powerful!"

Lin Dong clenched his fists, his eyes filled with vigilance: "Liu Shen's enemies are our enemies. We absolutely cannot give this piece of forehead bone any chance!"

Without hesitation, Shi Hao raised his hand and waved it, and the Great Luo Sword Embryo appeared in his palm. The sword body shone with golden light, and flying immortal patterns flowed on the sword body, ready to kill it completely with one sword.

But just as he was about to make his move, the few golden willow leaves in the cave suddenly lit up and emitted a warm light.

Immediately afterwards, a strange pattern flew out from Shi Hao's body. It was a rune mark imprinted on his body after living with Liu Shen for many years.

The pattern merged with the golden willow leaf, transforming into a bewitching light that coiled around the cyan forehead bone and began to burn.

That flame was no ordinary fire, but a flame imbued with the breath of life, like a belated funeral, bringing an end to that entanglement that spanned eras.

The blue forehead bone made a slight crackling sound in the flames, then turned into wisps of blue smoke, which, along with the golden willow leaves, turned into powder and completely disappeared.

Once everything calmed down, only a gentle breeze blew through the stone chamber, scattering the powder into the air as if it had never existed.

Looking at this scene, Cao Yusheng couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder it needs to be sealed. After so many years of entanglement, such a strange change can still occur. The fact that the True Immortal is stationed here is probably not only to suppress that creature, but also to prevent the cause and effect between the Willow God and this forehead bone from resurfacing."

Shi Hao stared at his empty palm and remained silent for a long time.

Despite the passage of an era, the power of the Willow God still deeply shocked him.

If a mere willow leaf and a remnant rune can trigger such a reaction after countless years, what level must the Willow God have reached in his prime?

He didn't say another word for a long time, just stood there quietly, his gaze fixed on the dust scattered by the breeze, as if watching a piece of history that had been sealed away slowly dissipate.

Seeing that Shi Hao remained silent, Cao Yusheng walked over and asked, "Brother Shi Hao, do you still want to continue exploring this Burial Realm? After all, you've already gained a lot, even finding traces of the Willow God, so it's been a worthwhile trip."

Shi Hao only came to his senses after hearing this.

He looked up at the hazy, chaotic mist outside the stone chamber, and then slowly said, "The Willow Goddess once fought in the Burial Realm, and the traces she left behind are naturally more than what we just saw. Every willow leaf she left behind, every trace, may contain important clues. I will continue to search and try."

Cao Yusheng nodded and said seriously, "You're right. Simply shutting yourself in seclusion and cultivating is not a good method. Only by experiencing everything in the world can you deepen your understanding and make your cultivation twice as effective."

Han Li, who had been standing in the corner, was suddenly stunned the moment he heard Cao Yusheng's words.

A strange light flashed in his eyes, as if something had been touched, like a withered tree coming back to life, finally causing a crack to appear in his bottleneck that had lasted for many years.

"Indeed... if one hears the Way in the morning, one can die content in the evening..."

Han Li repeated the words in a low voice, and the spiritual energy within his body began to circulate on its own, becoming faster and faster.

His face first showed a look of confusion, then gradually turned to realization, and finally became relieved.

His aura began to fluctuate violently, like a mountain torrent that had been suppressed for a long time finally finding an outlet.

"--boom!!!"

The next moment, a strong fluctuation of cultivation power suddenly erupted from Han Liti, causing the entire stone chamber to tremble slightly.

A faint light emanated from his body, first golden, then turning cyan, and finally transforming into a crystal-clear white, like jade that had been washed clean.

Han Li closed his eyes, his brows furrowed, as if he were enduring something, or perhaps sensing something.

A moment later, when he opened his eyes, they held a clarity and determination he had never shown before.

"He had an epiphany."

Luo Feng looked at Han Li, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Lin Dong's eyes widened in disbelief: "Third Brother, you... you've broken through?"

Han Li let out a long breath, as if he had finally unloaded a heavy burden that had been lifted from his shoulders for many years.

He turned to look at Cao Yusheng, solemnly cupped his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist Cao, your words just now have enlightened me. The bottleneck that has plagued me for many years has finally been broken today. I will remember this kindness."

Cao Yusheng was taken aback for a moment, then grinned and said, "I just said it casually, I didn't expect you to actually take it to heart. But your breakthrough is due to your own hard work and accumulation. I just happened to say something that sounded nice."

Han Li shook his head, not saying anything more about his thanks, but the solemnity in his eyes was more genuine than any words.

He had been at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage for some time.

Everyone in the group is constantly breaking through and improving their cultivation, but he alone hasn't made much progress because of his state of mind!

Now, thanks to a single sentence from Cao Yusheng, he has finally made a breakthrough.

Of course, his cultivation level has not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

But he has already found a way to break through.

As long as I go back and go into seclusion, I will surely be able to achieve my goal of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator.

There are only a handful of Nascent Soul cultivators in the mortal cultivation world right now.

If Han Li can successfully break through in the human realm.

Given his strength and resources, he would inevitably become the number one cultivator in the human realm, rather than the number one cultivator in Tiannan as described in the original story.
