Deep within the Wildlands Mountain Range lay the Azure Bull Tribe's sacred grounds.
It was a natural cavern concealed by enormous vines. The spiritual energy inside was several times denser than outside, and a strange scent filled the air, fresh yet faintly sweet and metallic. At the cavern's center, a jade-green pool of spirit milk flowed quietly. Its contents were thick as honey, giving off the refreshing fragrance of Wildlands Spirit Milk.
Han Li sat cross-legged beside the pool, a wisp of Chaos Sword Qi flickering at his fingertips. He did not rush to absorb the spirit milk. Instead, he sank his spiritual sense into his Sea of Consciousness, reflecting on the "totem insights" imparted by the Azure Bull Tribe's high priest.
The Barbarians' totem power actually shares the same origin as the Witch Power of the Mulan Grassland... Understanding dawned on Han Li. Both used special rituals to draw upon a certain primordial power between heaven and earth, condensing it into totems or Ancestral Spirit phantoms. The difference was that Barbarian totems leaned closer to nature and bestial instincts, while Mulan Witch Power favored laws and elements.
More wondrous still, this totem power contains an exceedingly faint trace of Space Dao Rhythm. A sharp gleam flashed through Han Li's eyes. It seems Venerable Cang Kun truly ventured deep into the wildlands back then, even weaving part of his legacy into the Barbarians' totems.
He slowly opened his eyes and looked toward the spirit milk pool. At its center floated a fist-sized Wilds Spirit Crystal, radiating a soft white light. This was the core used to refine the spirit milk, and the Azure Bull Tribe's sacred treasure.
*With this, together with the Wildlands Spirit Milk, my understanding of the fourth layer of the Brahma Saint True Demonic Art will advance
