I'm in Yellow Maple Valley, and I have one equipment slot!

Author Luan Xinghai Han Paopao personally recommends: I hope you enjoy the story of "I Have an Equipment Slot in Huangfeng Valley!" on Cola Novels.

Cultivating immortality knows no time.

Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in a quiet room.

Zhou Yuan's aura suddenly changed!

It was a qualitative leap, like a stream flowing into a river, and a river rushing into the sea.

The spiritual energy around him surged wildly.

The nascent soul in the dantian suddenly opened its eyes.

Shining with golden light!

The bottleneck that had troubled him for many years in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm was finally broken today!

Mid-stage Nascent Soul!

Zhou Yuan slowly opened his eyes, a smile playing on his lips.

After twenty years of seclusion, he finally achieved something.

His divine sense spread outwards like a tide—three hundred miles, three hundred and fifty miles, four hundred miles, four hundred and thirty miles!

Four hundred and thirty li!

This distance is far beyond that of ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

With his current cultivation level and divine sense, plus the secret techniques of divine sense, he is confident that he can escape unscathed even if he faces a great cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Zhou Yuan stood up.

Push open the stone door to the quiet room.

……

In the hall, several women were chatting idly.

Yuan Yao wore a moon-white long dress, exuding a cool and ethereal aura; Yan Li wore a pale yellow dress, with bright and charming eyes, lively and spirited.

Zi Ling was still dressed in her purple palace gown, elegant and composed; Ouyang Qing sat obediently to the side, listening to the three mistresses speak.

Upon seeing Zhou Yuan emerge, the women all stood up simultaneously.

"Brother Zhou, you're out of seclusion!" Yuan Yao greeted him, her eyes filled with joy.

Zhou Yuan glanced at them and nodded slightly.

Over the years, they have each gained something.

Because the Spirit Eye Spring, which was over ten feet in size, from the Void Heaven Palace was equipped on Zhou Yuan, it could change the concentration of spiritual energy in the surrounding world, making the cultivation environment of the entire cave far superior to that of the past.

Yuan Yao and Yan Li have both cultivated to the late stage of Core Formation, with a solid foundation.

Zi Ling formed her core relatively late.

Furthermore, because of his constitution, which is that of a virgin, he is suited to cultivate demonic arts.

Zhou Yuan had previously given the Xuan Yin Scripture to Zi Ling to practice.

Now, twenty years later, the Profound Yin Scripture has enabled Zi Ling to cultivate back to the Core Formation stage.

"You've all made great progress... Keep up the good work..." Zhou Yuan encouraged everyone.

Over the next few days, Zhou Yuan spent intimate time with the women and gave them some pointers on their cultivation.

Then they got busy again.

He built a new teleportation array in the cave so that when he went to more distant places in the future, he could build a new teleportation array to connect to this new one and teleport back directly.

Once everything is ready.

Zhou Yuan activated the first teleportation array.

A flash of white light, and his figure vanished.

……

Not long after, Zhou Yuan arrived at an outer island in the Inner Star Sea—Star Destroyer Island.

This island was once one of the twenty-four outer islands of the Star Palace, but it has now been occupied by the Reverse Star Alliance.

Zhou Yuan concealed his cultivation aura to the Foundation Establishment stage, mingled among the crowd, and swaggered into the island's largest city.

He arrived at a bustling teahouse in the city, found a seat in a corner, ordered a pot of spiritual tea, and sipped it casually. In reality, his terrifying divine sense, far surpassing that of the late Nascent Soul stage, had already quietly covered the entire teahouse.

This place is a melting pot of all sorts of people, making it the fastest place to gather information.

The conversations and telepathic messages of the cultivators in the teahouse, and even those who thought they were being discreet with their divine senses, could not escape his divine sense's detection.

In a private room on the third floor, two Core Formation cultivators were talking in hushed tones.

"Have you heard? The disciple that the Extreme Yin Ancestor took in back then has recently shown up."

"You mean that kid surnamed Han? Tsk tsk, his bounty has been on his head for decades, and he's still alive?"

"That's right."

I've heard that many fellow cultivators want to use the bounty to hunt down this person, and even quite a few Nascent Soul seniors are looking for him.

"Is a mere mid-stage Core Formation cultivator worth a Nascent Soul senior's intervention?"

"Who knows? But I heard that guy surnamed Han said a month ago that he was going to the old place to find his master..."

"The same old place? Could it be that the Yin Ancestor has actually been staying on Yin Island all these years?"

"Who knows? Anyway, the news has spread, and quite a few people have already set off."

Zhou Yuan put down his teacup, a smile playing on his lips.

I didn't expect to find out Han Li's whereabouts so easily. I'm really lucky.

"The same old place...interesting."

He naturally understood that Han Li was taking the initiative to contact him.

Because Han Li knew that Ji Yin had died long ago, and also understood that the Ji Yin Ancestor who appeared twenty years ago was an imposter, and that the so-called "old place" was naturally not Ji Yin Island.

Where could that be?

Two places flashed through Zhou Yuan's mind.

—Kui Xing Island, or the nameless, desolate island near Kui Xing Island with its ancient teleportation array. It was on that desolate island that they first arrived in the Chaotic Star Sea from the south.

He put down his teacup.

He got up and left the teahouse.

……

half a month later.

Zhou Yuan's figure appeared on the nameless deserted island with an ancient teleportation array.

The island remains desolate.

Apart from that ancient teleportation array buried in the underground cave, there was nothing else.

Zhou Yuan's divine sense had already swept across the entire island, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"Junior Brother Han, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

A figure emerged from a crevice in a giant rock.

"I knew it. If you heard 'the old place' from other people, you would guess that I would come here." Han Li smiled and cupped his hands, his eyes filled with the joy of reunion.

"It seems Junior Brother Han has had some great opportunities these past few years," Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

"There were indeed some opportunities."

"It was a near-death experience; I almost didn't see my senior brother again!"

Han Li nodded, without elaborating.

Instead, he took a storage bag from his waist and handed it over.

"Senior brother, this is what I promised you."

Zhou Yuan took it, probed it with his divine sense, and was immediately overjoyed!

Inside the storage bag, there were several special jade boxes, each containing one of the six ancient golden thunder bamboos!

Each one was golden and shimmering with a faint lightning glow. Its age and quality far surpassed that of the previous piece of Thunder Bamboo!

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhou Yuan said "Good" three times in succession.

I'm very happy.

"Junior Brother Han, thank you very much."

Han Li waved his hand: "If it weren't for my senior brother teaching me the cultivation techniques and saving my life in the Void Heaven Palace back then, where would I be today?"

"I obtained all of these from an ancient ruin. As agreed, I'll give half to my senior brother!"

"Wow, getting so many Golden Thunder Bamboo at once, Junior Brother's luck is truly enviable!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Zhou Yuan naturally knew that Han Li had obtained so many Thunder Bamboos by using the Little Green Bottle to accelerate their growth.

Han Li also knew that Zhou Yuan wouldn't believe his clumsy excuse.

But since he dared to come...

I'm certain Zhou Yuan won't make a move!

Because we have to take action.

Zhou Yuan had countless opportunities back then.

"By the way, senior brother."

Han Li changed the subject: "Now everyone in the Chaotic Star Sea is saying that the Extreme Yin Ancestor has mastered the Death Curse Technique, and can take a life with a single word. Was it Senior Brother who did what happened on Luo Tian Island that day?"

Zhou Yuan smiled and did not deny it.
