Han Xuanji's next goal was to achieve a Breakthrough to the Eternal True Lord Realm. The Foundation for this Breakthrough was to condense ten Eternal Dao Principles. The strength of these ten Dao Principles would directly determine the power of his Law Source after the Breakthrough, making it of paramount importance; he did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.
He had already set his goals to subsequently condense powerful Dao Principles such as the Five Elements, Creation, Yin and Yang, and Life and Death. These Dao Principles were extraordinarily profound and possessed formidable combat power, giving him a far greater advantage than ordinary Dao Principles.
If he could gather all these powerful Dao Principles, his Foundation would be incomparably thick after breaking through to the Eternal True Lord Realm, and his subsequent progress toward higher Realms would be much smoother. However, condensing these powerful Dao Principles would not be easy and would require even more Heaven And Earth Treasures, things that he could only rely on the System for.
Sensing Han Xuanji's thoughts, Hun Qianling quickly said:
"Xuanji, don't be anxious. I have already placed a bounty with the Eternal Chamber of Commerce. Any clues regarding the Dao Ancestor or the Tongtian Dao Venerable, as long as they are valuable, can be exchanged for a generous reward.
Wait patiently. If the two of them have already successfully arrived on the Eternal Continent, we will eventually receive information."
"Good, thank you."
Han Xuanji nodded slightly, having no intention of making things difficult for her.
He then asked about the main matter at hand:
"By the way, Young Miss Qianling, I also wanted to ask which experts in Qianhun City Cultivate the Way of Laws, and what relevant locations are there?"
His plan was simple: as a large-scale city, Qianhun City had a deep heritage and was bound to have many Sign In locations. As long as he found these places, he could obtain more treasures to assist his Cultivation.
Before that, he naturally had to gather intelligence and select Sign In locations, prioritizing places where he could obtain Way of Laws treasures.
Upon hearing Han Xuanji's question, Hun Qianling's tone instantly became joyful:
"You finally have a request! I thought you were going to stay in closed-door Cultivation forever, being a desireless ascetic Cultivator."
After that brief teasing, Hun Qianling quickly composed her tone and said seriously:
"There aren't many Eternal True Gods in Qianhun City who Cultivate the Way of Laws, and many have recently left the city, so not many remain at the moment."
Hearing this, Han Xuanji didn't mind and rephrased his question:
"It doesn't matter; I don't need them to be present. What I want to ask is, would it be possible for me to observe the residences of these Way of Laws experts?
I've heard that the places where they spend years in closed-door Cultivation retain quite a bit of dao-rhythm, which might help me better comprehend the Dao Principles."
At this request, Hun Qianling fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
Rumor had it that in the places where Way of Laws experts spent years in seclusion, everything from the rocks and trees to the items they used daily would be stained with the dao-rhythm of the Great Dao they had comprehended. Some experts would even intentionally leave behind hidden Legacies, possessing the air of a grandmaster.
Some peerless Geniuses had comprehended many things simply by observing these objects imbued with dao-rhythm.
It was not unusual for Han Xuanji to have such an intention. In fact, many Cultivators who practiced the Way of Laws believed in this theory, and many had indeed gained something from it.
Thinking of this, Hun Qianling did not dare to be careless and only spoke slowly after a moment:
"You want to use this dao-rhythm to Cultivate?"
Han Xuanji smiled slightly and did not deny it:
"Indeed. Being able to feel the dao-rhythm of experts from a close distance will be of great help to my comprehension of the Eternal Dao Principles."
"Then there's no problem. I'll organize the intelligence on these experts' residences for you right away. They'll all be within the range that the Hun Family can access, so it won't cause any trouble for you."
Hun Qianling readily agreed and then reminded him:
"However, you must be careful. Some of the experts' residences have Restrictions and corresponding rules. I will send that information along with the rest; just act with caution."
"Thank you."
Han Xuanji thanked her softly.
In less than half the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, his communication jade talisman lit up again. Hun Qianling's messages came in a steady stream, meticulously detailing many precautions; it was clear she had put a lot of effort into it.
[Xuanji, I've organized a few places for you. They are all quite famous and are legitimate locations. The first is the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, which was once the seclusion spot of an Eternal True God who practiced the Fire Dao Principle. This True God has already fallen, and the Heavenly Fire Pavilion is currently managed by his descendants.
The second is the Yin Yang Grotto-Heaven. Its master is a True God who practices the Yin and Yang Dao Principles and is skilled at balancing Yin and Yang and tempering the dao foundation. The hall is filled year-round with Yin and Yang Qi; even just sitting quietly outside the hall allows one to feel the mystery of the Yin and Yang Dao Principles. A special token is required to enter.
The third is the Five Elements Tower, a power established by a Loose Cultivator who was an Eternal True God. It has declined significantly now, and its core areas have been opened to the public.
The fourth is the Life and Death Ravine, which is a True God Secret Realm. Half of the ravine is withered and silent, while the other half is lush and flourishing, containing pure Life and Death dao-rhythm. However, this Secret Realm is very dangerous, and it is risky for an Eternal Dao Lord Cultivator to enter.
The fifth is the Creation Platform, where a True God who practiced the Creation Dao Principle once attained the Dao. The surface of the platform is carved with Creation Dao Patterns, which can assist Cultivators in sensing the Great Dao Origin. However, the Creation Platform is located at the Holy Court legion station, so gaining entry will not be easy.]
Han Xuanji carefully browsed the intelligence sent by Hun Qianling, calculating in his mind.
These five locations were all, without exception, places of dao-rhythm, and every individual who had left behind that dao-rhythm was an Eternal True God.
To be able to Cultivate to the Eternal True God Realm through the Way of Laws meant that they were by no means mediocre; each had their own unique comprehension of Dao Principles. They should all be excellent Sign In locations.
Nevertheless, Han Xuanji analyzed each location one by one.
Soon, Han Xuanji's gaze locked onto the Five Elements Tower, a look of certainty flashing in his eyes.
"Five Elements Tower... perfect."
Han Xuanji murmured softly, feeling increasingly satisfied. The path of the Five Elements was a relatively common choice among Way of Laws Cultivators. Separately condensing one of the paths—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, or Earth—was not particularly difficult. However, achieving a complete mastery and a cycle of the Five Elements Dao Principles was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. It was rumored that the master of the Five Elements Tower had achieved this, so the heritage there was bound to be substantial.
Hun Qianling's intelligence also mentioned that the Five Elements Tower Master had long since left Qianhun City. However, his Disciples continued to operate the Five Elements Tower, specifically recruiting Genius Cultivators of the Way of Laws. Currently, there was still an Eternal True God presiding over the tower; although only at the Early Stage of the Eternal True God Realm, it allowed the Five Elements Tower to maintain a firm foothold in Qianhun City as a second-rate power.
