......

Unless you're crafting some special treasure!

Thinking of this, Li Huowang glanced at Han Li, but did not ask any further questions.

Everyone has their own secrets.

"I do have another water-attribute spiritual item here."

Li Huowang hesitated for a moment before slowly taking out a four-foot-long, dark blue crystal from his storage bag.

Under the sunlight, it shimmered with a faint blue light and constantly emitted a chilling aura.

"Millennial Ice Marrow!"

The moment Han Li saw the dark blue crystal, he called out its name.

The Thousand-Year-Old Frost Marrow is of the same lineage as the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Mysterious Ice Marrow and has similar effects, but compared with the latter, the Thousand-Year-Old Frost Marrow is much less effective.

"That's right."

When Li Huowang saw that Han Li instantly recognized the Thousand-Year Ice Marrow, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Uncle Li, what is the value of this piece of thousand-year-old ice marrow?"

Han Li asked.

The amount of Ice Soul Spring in the pale yellow jade box was not much. If we could add this piece of Thousand-Year-Old Frost Marrow, the forging of the Water Spirit Sword would be foolproof!

Even the quality can be improved significantly.

"Young man Han, I can give this to you directly."

"But you have to help me complete a task."

Li Huowang paused for a moment before slowly speaking.

"What kind of mission is it?"

Han Li was somewhat puzzled.

The Star Palace has many Core Formation cultivators, including quite a few in the late Core Formation stage.

As an elder of the Star Palace, it's perfectly normal for Li Huowang to have a confidant who has reached the Core Formation stage.

Then why look for yourself?

"Young Han, do you know Night Dragon Island?"

"Night Dragon Island?"

"Could it be the island where the Nascent Soul cultivator, True Person Night Dragon, resides?"

Han Li pondered for a moment and then recalled the information about Night Dragon Island.

Similar to Red Moon Island, Night Dragon Island is a large island with Night Dragon True Man, a Nascent Soul cultivator, in charge. For many years, the sea area there has been calm and peaceful, with no disputes.

Legend has it that the master of Night Dragon Island, Master Night Dragon, was extremely skilled in combat. His mastery of the "Nether Dragon Technique" was unparalleled, and few in the same realm could match him.

"That's right."

Li Huowang nodded slightly. After all, Night Dragon Island was one of the larger powers in the Chaotic Star Sea, so it was not surprising that Han Li knew about it.

"Master Yelong of Night Dragon Island is an old friend of mine. I once owed him a favor, and now it is time to repay it."

Li Huowang paused for a moment, then continued.

Then he gently pushed it, and the three-inch-long piece of thousand-year-old ice marrow slowly floated to Han Li's front.

Then, Li Huowang swiped his storage bag at his waist, and a dark purple array plate and six array flags appeared in his hand, along with a cyan jade slip next to them.

"This is the Star River Returning to Origin Grand Formation, a top-tier defensive formation."

"Your mission is to go to Night Dragon Island and set up this grand formation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Huowang looked at Han Li.

"I heard from Brother Shi that you have a talent for array formations. I imagine that setting up this array according to the steps in the jade slip will not be difficult for you."

"If you agree, this Thousand-Year-Old Ice Marrow will be yours."

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Shi Kun's eyes.

"No wonder you rushed me to send the formation over; it turns out it's because of Night Dragon Island."

Shi Kun looked at Li Huowang and slowly spoke.

"There's nothing I can do; I owe that old dragon a favor."

Li Huowang sighed.

Fallen leaves drifted in the courtyard, with a few withered leaves landing on the ground.

"Han Li, in recent years, the Chaotic Star Sea has been rife with undercurrents, with both the righteous and demonic factions acting suspiciously. The outer sea is becoming increasingly unsafe."

"Although you have achieved considerable success in your cultivation, you still need to think this over carefully."

Shi Kun offered a reminder.

Now that chaos is emerging, these top-level cultivators have long since noticed the signs, but many mid- and low-level cultivators are simply kept in the dark.

"Okay, I agree."

After a moment, Han Li spoke.

How could Han Li not know about the current chaos?!

However, this Thousand-Year Frost Marrow is quite important to Han Li, and he is determined to obtain it!

"Good, that's bold!"

Upon hearing this, Li Huowang praised Han Li.

"In that case, the Star River Returning to Origin Array is now entrusted to you."

With a gentle wave of his hand, Han Li instantly stored all the items in his storage bag.

"Senior Brother Han, I'll go with you."

At this moment, Shi Die, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.

"No!"

As soon as Shi Die finished speaking, Shi Kun's voice immediately rang out.

"Nothing you say will work this time! The outer sea is too dangerous right now. Your cultivation level is too low; you won't be of any help, you'll only cause trouble for Han Li!"

Unlike before, Shi Kun did not directly and firmly reject Shi Die's request.

"father!"

Shi Die wanted to try again, but in a flash of light, Shi Kun's figure disappeared from the spot.

.......

Five days later.

Dongxing Island, northern beach.

The bright moon rises at night.

The bright moonlight shone on the beach, giving the already white sand a hazy sheen, like a piece of moon-white silk.

The waves crashed against the rocks on the shore, making a splashing sound.

On the shore, a man and a woman walked side by side.

The woman was beautiful and had a slender figure, while the man was of average appearance but possessed an indescribable charm.

It was Han Li and Shi Die.

The two walked hand in hand along the beach.

Just like the scene on Red Moon Island back then.

A salty sea breeze blew in my face, bringing a slight chill.

"Senior Brother Han, are you leaving tomorrow?"

Shi Die's voice rang out, her former arrogance and vitality completely gone, replaced by a hint of coldness.

"Yes, we can't wait any longer. Uncle Li told me to leave two days ago."

"Now it's been delayed by a few days."

Han Li nodded.

Why is the time we spend together always so short?

"It was the same on Red Moon Island, it was the same in Tianxing City, and it's the same now that we've arrived at Dongxing Island."

Shi Die gripped Han Li's hand tightly, her voice trembling slightly.

"Junior sister, you..."

Han Li was about to say something when he was immediately interrupted by Shi Die.

"Senior Brother Han, now that you've reached the Core Formation stage, tell me, how much longer do I have to wait?"

Shi Die stopped and looked at Han Li's face, her eyes shimmering with tears, as if she was enduring her emotions, her voice trembling with suppressed sobs.

"Junior sister, the cultivation world is unpredictable and treacherous. Core Formation cultivators can barely protect themselves. Only Nascent Soul cultivators can truly control their own destiny. Otherwise, it's nothing but a mirage, an empty dream."

"Besides, I already have a Daoist partner."

Han Li said slowly.

"Senior brother, you know I don't mind."

The girl's voice rang out again.

Seeing this, Han Li looked at the stone disc in front of him, his mouth moved as if he was about to say something.

But before they could react...

Immediately afterwards, Han Li felt two lips kiss him, warm and fragrant, sweet.

The bright moonlight shone on the girl's fair neck, and her unique fragrance wafted over. Soon, the girl's body began to feel hot.

The girl's flat stomach pressed tightly against his waist.

The warm sensation caused Han Li to momentarily lose his composure, his large hand unconsciously stroking the girl's smooth, white thighs.

Shi Die was completely unguarded in front of Han Li, panting heavily.

"Senior Brother Han..."

Just as the fire was raging, the girl's shout brought him back to his senses.

Han Li gently pushed the girl in his arms away, took a few deep breaths, and calmed himself down.

That was close! I almost lost all my cultivation!

The girl hadn't fully recovered yet; her face was flushed and her clothes were disheveled.

A moment later, Shi Die straightened her clothes, looked at Han Li, and her eyes held a strange look.

"Senior Brother Han, I'm already like this, how can you still hold back? Are you impotent?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?! How could I possibly be unable to do it?!"

Upon hearing this, Han Li frowned deeply, a deep frown forming between his brows.

A cool sea breeze blew again, ruffling their hair.

Seeing Han Li's somewhat annoyed expression, Shi Die's lips curled into a smile.

The girl walked slowly to Han Li and gently leaned against him.

"Senior Brother Han."

"I'm really happy that you've been able to spend these past few days with me, no matter what."

The moonlight shone on the two of them, and the night gradually became hazy.
