Before leaving, Ang left the altar with Yuyuli. He had done his best to carve the Blessing Runes he understood onto it, but he knew clearly that his method differed from that of the Guanda people.

The blessing collectively driven by Yuyuli's tribe through their spiritual field not only lasted longer, but if it could be continuously reinforced over half a month, those who received it could permanently integrate that power into themselves. It was equivalent to a qualitative improvement and had no side effects.

His method relied solely on an energy supply and lacked the union of spirit and faith, making it difficult to achieve the profound effects of tribal rituals. Still, he was not disappointed. Through this experience, he had verified the basic theory behind the runes and mastered more practical techniques, enough to lay a foundation for future research.
After leaving the Green Bear Tribe, Ang and Roel traveled upstream along the river, passing the lake they had visited before without lingering this time. Ang's goal had become increasingly clear: to find a complete record of Guanda blessing runes, then explore the legendary Ancient Elf runes.

Ang quietly pondered that as long as he could decipher the operating principles of Guanda blessing runes, he might be able
